When Jones became a suburbante In the

he found the neighbors congenial and

came the Sunday morning when he slept late.
He was awakened by tremendous rap

Mary WAS the housemaid. woman OF
immense beam and great depth. Mary
had decided that morning that rug needed
dusting. She was shaking 1t out Of the
window when it slipped from her graGp
and slid down the roof Of the extension.
Without thinking Of consequences, Mary
crawed down tho roof to the edge and
got the rug. Then she looked back.
A few seconds contemplation Of the
angle and the smoothness Of the roof con-
vinced her that withouta a mountain stick
and guides and ropes there was no hope
FOR her in returning the way she came.
She surveyed the surrounding landscape
and then peeped over the edge Of the roof
That didn't reassure her A careful
measurement would have made the dis
tance from the roof to the ground about
thirt feet. Then she screamed
