THE WAY OF THE WORLD.

TIE WAY OF THE WOhLD'
The new boy had novel in-that is,
the family which owned the new boy
had moved in. II was quite likely the
new boy would show up in the back
yard during the afternoon, and so, after
school, seven boys headed that way.
The new boy had only been seen from
distance. Was he sassy? No one could
answer Would he fight? No one
could tell. He must be tried 1t was
the solemn duty of every boy in that
neighborhood to make this important
discovery at the earliest possiblemoment,
If he could be licked, well and good; if
he was a fighter! They breathcd hard
over the thought.
In half an hour seven heads appeared
above the alley fence behind the new
boys house. He seemed to be expect
ing them, and had heaped up peck of
green tomatoes at the foot of plum
| tree.
The seven glarcd down at him. lie
glared up and back.
"What cher want?"
1t was the new boy, and there was
''sass" in his tones.
None O yer bizness"
1t was one of the seven who answered.
"Git off'n that fenco!'
We won'tr
4 say git Off
'Shan't do it"
The new boy stopped for his tomatoes,
but when he raised up he saw the seven
heads was gone, 1t was settled he was
sassy. Would he fight?
You thcre?' from the alley.
'Who| from the yard.
You dasn't fight"
Yes dastr
'Dasn't come over"
You see!
He came oyer. 1t had been settled
that johnny Flynn should tackle him,
and johnny was ready. He grabbed
for the new boys hat, and the new boy
grabbed for his coat, and they tuggcd
and twisted.
Sick him, Johnny
Clean him outn
Pull his hair"
But the new boy had the best of it.
lie came down on the top of johnny
and gouged his eye and bit his finger,
and offered to lick any one else in the
crowd. His father came out just then
and the seven ran away, but the evidence
was all in. The new boy would not only
sass and fight, but was boss. Before
sun-down that night he had been pre-
sented with two big bites from an apple,
three marbles, ball of kite string and
half pound of brown sugar in an old
straw hat, and other boys were waiting
to shower honors and presents upon him
at sunrise.

For Newest Designs and Most Fashionable
Los Angeles daily herald., 1886-01-16
Iet Us Have ,he Park.

The suggestion that the city set apart
a fine tract Of nearly hall thousand
acres on her northern limits for a park,
which appeared in the HERALD few
days ago, has taken the citizens in a
most popular spirit. The bonds author
Ized by the late popular vote are partly
for city buildings and partly for the i'm
provement Of the water supply. There
is, besides, little item Of surplusage
amounting to s25. 900 in this issue for
which there is no specific purpose
named. Now let this be devoted to
park making. The city can appropriate
tae tract referred to for park. The
Council can then devote the 5000 to
improving this. In betterine the water
supply II is foregone conclusion, Of
course, that in this line something will
be done in the way of enlarging the
sources of supply. The bitches by
which the water is taken from
the river should be increased both
in number and capacity. Then there
should be more reservoirs made. In
this two birds may be killed with one
stone. Put these new reservoirs in the
park. In the tract specified there are
many places admirably suited for this.
While they will be storing places for
the water to supply the city, they can
be 80 constructed as to greatly add to
the beauty Of the park. They may be
so built as 10 appear like SO many small
lakes in the landscape. They can be
protected from deflement on the part
Of men or other animals, aud also from
contamination by falling leaves or de.
caying vegetation Of any sort. At the
same time the banks near may be set
with trees, shrubs and Towering plants
Of endless variety, and the whole scene
be made one Of bewitching loveliness.
Just beyond this tract is to be the new
ostrich farm on the Los Feliz ranch and
the public park augmented by this novel
private enterprise will make a rare at
traction adjoining the city Of Los Ange-
les. There are coming to this place
each winter q continually increasing
number OF visitors. II is a very import
ant matter that they should have some
pleasant place to ramble in and to drive
through. IT will very largely enhance
the value Of every mans property in the
city, and it will as well make Los Ange-
les much more agreeable place for nom
property holders to live in. The poorer
citizens who have no grounds to adorn,
no trees OF their own TO lounge
under, no place to grow flowers on
which to feast their eyes, no walks to
ramble through, who are shut up in
workshops or stores all the week will
reap the greatest benefit from such
place as this. wal the Council take the
matter up at once-at thor next meet
ing-keep fast hold Of the proposition
and work away on it continuously, per-
sistently and vigorously until il is done
and their term of Office signalizsd by
one of the most popular and beneficial
acts in the history Of the puebloi

EDITOR HERALD: Although the frosts
Of late, at night. have done more or less
damage in our valley (San Gabriel) to
trees and plants. especially in the open
or more exposed places, Of which this is
one, yet to-day as sit near my cottage
door here on Long Beach front, there
are camelias, roses, fuchias, nasturtiums,
shamrock, etc., to be seen in bloom as
survivors of Jack frost, and other folks
gardens adjacent are blooming like my
own little one. So this shows the gar
dens here are not all uncared for, and ii
they assimilate to those pretty gardens
so rife at Pasadena it may be due to the
force OF example and the result of gen.
erous friendly rivalry and change of air,
for many flowers here come from Pasa-
dena, as l can testify. and speak the
language Of their own beauty, forally
speaking. Beautify your homes with
flowers; such Improvements pay. as well
at Long Beach as at Pasadena. Samples
Of these flowers shall be forwarded to
the HERALD Office.
The HERALD ANNUAL for 1885 will,
trust, this month be published, and be
based on Improvement, and encourage,
as am informed it is intended to do,
nothing short of golden improvements
everywhere. Yours truly,

We had not gone far before the wagon
began to wobble Said /, Judge
think your coachman has taken drop

the Judge shouted: "Why, you informal
scoundrel you are drunk"
Turning around with great gravity,
the coachman said: "Bedadl but that's

II people knew the facts they would
be surprised to learn how many people
reel in the streets who never "drink a
drop" They are the victims of sleep
lessness, Of drowsy days, Of apoplectic
tendencies, whose blood is set on ire by

more they will drop dead, Just because
they haven't the moral courage to defy
useless professional attendance, and by

More Of tho Laches of the Hoard
Of Educnffon.

EDITOR HERALD: In your issue OF the
14th inst. ''0ne OF the Critics" in mas
terIy manner exposes the illegal methods
adopted by the old City Board Of Edu-
cation in the matter Of appointing a
City Superintendent OF Schools. Your
correspondent might have written also
much concerning the misfeasance OF the
late Board. The contract for building
the school building known as the Sixth
Street School was let for s25. 900, but
the expenditures on ''extras" brought
the cost Of the pretentious edifice up to
at least 1000. II would seem that
the expenditure Of this sum should have
ensured to the city a building as nearly
perfect in its way as the skill of man
guided by experience Is capable of erect
ing, but such is not the case The Sixth
Street School was finished about year
ago, and what il its actual condition?
It's foundation walls have settled so that
the floors are all out Of level and its
doors out Of plumb, while there are gaps
in the outer walls through which the
surrounding landscape can be seen. In
part these defects are owing to the lack
OF skill or OF honesty displayed by those
concerned in the erection Of the building.
But In very great part the damage
is due to that ignorance OF the principles
of architecture which permitted the main
stays OF the building to be cut away in
order that the so-called Cottier system
OF Ventilation might be injected Ito use
the only fitting term) into that building.
Five hundred dollars was paid for the
privilege OF using this alleged invention.
I say alleged, because there is no new
scientific principles introduced in Cot
tiers system Of ventilation. 1t will be
said that the " invention is patented;
this is true probably, but a patent for an
artificial moon is among those on file at
Washington. To-day lumber for at
tempting to remedy the damage done
lies ready for use in the schooI-house
yard. No one need take it for granted
that what ! say concerning the condi.
tion Of the Sixth street school is
so; let him go thither and see
with his own eyes. But th is

and the building generally is in utter

Why are all these things sos Simply

new Board will take warning from the
example Of its predecessor.
