Now" he continued, you start
your toboggan at A and whizz down
to C. When you set there you have
gathered speed enough to take you up
the hill to B. Then of its own weight
the toboggan slides back to D, from
which it again moves forward to e,
and so it keeps on sliding back and
forth until finally it comes to dead
stop at c. Isn't that a fine arrange
ment?'
Magnificent" said Tom. "And do
they call it tobogganing here?'
NO" said Rightly. 'it's called oscil-
lating, and the machine is known as
the oscycle"--
Don't confound it with the icicle,"
put in the Bellows.
20, / know what an icicle is" said
Tom, its spear of ice that hangs
from a piazza roof"
That's what it is at home" said
the Poker. but not here, my lad. Here
an icicle is a bicycle with runners in
stead of wheels"
But what makes it go?" demanded
Tom.

SPORT"
Another rush and roar of passing
tOboggan caused them to pause in
their conversation for a moment, and
then Tom turned his attention 10 the
diagram Rightly had drawn on the
snow.
Z Suppose you didn't stop at B and
so back-what would happen" he
asked as he considered the possible
dangers of this wonderful new sport.
You'd fall over the edge, of course"
said the Poker.
Il see that" said Tom. But If you
fell over the edge what would become
of you? Where would you land?"
IF you had luck you wouldn't land
anywhere" said Rightly. The
chances are, however, you'd fall back
on the earth again. Maybe in Canada,
possibly in China, perhaps in Egypt. 1t
would all depend on the time of

land wouldn't you be killed." Tom
asked.
Not If you had your rubbers on"
said Rightly. IF you had your rubbers
on it would only jar you slightly. You'd
just hit the earth and then bouce back
again, but there's no use of talking
about that, because it never happened
but once. 1t happened to a chap named
Blenkinsop, who took an OscillatOr
that hadn't any brake on it, He was
one of those smart fellows that want
TO show how clever they are. He
whizzed down one side and up the 9TH
er, and pouf! First thing he knew he
was flying off into space"
And what became of him?" de-
manded Tom.

purpose of making its members bet

planning, the very best cooking, and
the most attractive serving of meals,

entertained a few friends at a de-
lightful luncheon in the pretty dining,
room of the cooking school The pro-
fuse decorations of jars and vases of
jonquils scattered about the room and
handsome bowl of the rich, golden
blossoms on the table made the name
spring-tide luncheon seem very ap-
propriate. Besides the dainty dishes
and numerous surprises the guests
were greatly pleased to find at their
places beautiful hand-painted menu
cards contributed by the Miss Affords
pupils in the Fine Arts Department
of the college. Those invited as guests
OF the class were Mrs. R. N. La
mar, Mrs. Jas L. Sibley, Mrs Flemin-

who prepared and served the attrac-

cost of 10 cents per person were Mrs.

CHAPTER VII.
THEY REACH THE CRESCENT
MOON.
AS the jolly party sped along through
the heavens Tom began to find his eyes
bothering him a trifie. Brilliant as
many of the sunshiny days had been
at home, particularly when the snow
was on the ground, nothing so daz-
zlingly bright as this great golden arc
in the sky was getting to be as they
approached closer had ever greeted his
sight
Its binding" he cried. his eyes
blinking and filing with water as he
gazed upon the scene. Il can't stand
it. What shall l do, Lefty?"
Turn your head around and ap-
proach it backward" said Lefty. Then
you won't see it,"
But 1 want to see it," retorted Tom.
Whats the use of visiting the moon
If you can't see it?"
Reminds me of poem I wrote
once" put in the Poker Whats the
Use?' was one of my masterpieces. and
maybe if I recite it to you it will help
your eyes"
"Boshr growled the Bellows. who
was beginning to get a little short
winded with his labors, and, therefore,
a trifie out of temper. How on earth
will reciting your poem help Toms
eyes?"

Boat Harry G. Dny-Large Fleet at
S. A. l.. Northumberland AbIaze
Near Kitty Hawk, N. C.-Matters OF
Interest to Shippers and Mariners.
Capt. w. T. Gibson has not yet de-
cided whether another boat will be
built to take the place of the burned
steamer Harry G. Day on the Savan-
nah and Augusta run. The insurance
on the Day has not yet been adjusted,
though Capt Gibson states he has as
surances it will be in a few days. 1t
will then be decided what the company
will do.
From all appearances about the boat
Capt. Gibson states that she is prob
ably totally destroyed. He does not
believe the machinery will be any ac-
count, owing to the great damage to
it by the fire. The company will begin
very soon the work of examining the
boat, with view to saving whatever
of value remains.
: Realizing the Importance of having
ample facilities, since there is a sharp
competition for business on the upriver
run, Capt. Gibson may seriously con-
slider the building of a new boat,
though this will be decided by the
Southern's directors. who meet at Au-
gusta.
