He felt the gentle touch and turned
his head in surprise.
The next moment a pair of soft arms
were flung about his neck, hot cheek

An April Shower

81 L was all so absurdly trivial. In
fact, she had almost forgotten what
1t was about.
They had quarreled before lots of
times, and over more serious matters,
but they had always made it up again
directly afterward until now.
Now she came to think of it, II was
always she who had begun the quarrel
and he who had begun the making up.
And quite right, too, she said to her.

told her that he worshiped her; that he
was her slave till DEATH that for her
sake he was ready to go through fire
and water. She had only to command
and he would obey.
Very well, then; she had taken him at
his word. She had commanded and he
had obeyed-until now.
She had never asked him to go
through fire and water for her. No, she
Eas much too reasonable for that. She
had never demanded the impossible.
The things she had expected him to do
were all quite simple and easy.

A SONG FOR THE WEARY.

Life is but a world of battles;
You must fight them would you win
With the idleness that prattles,
Victory has never been;
Then why should you be complaining
If in one attempt you fail?
Each endeayor gives you training,
Till at last you shall prevail.
Nuggets of success are lying
underneath life's rugged road;
Dig and dig, and keep on trying
Till you strike the precious lode.
Skies above you will be bluer
AS along the way you tread,
Friends around you will be truer,
So be brave and go ahead.
Time is feeting. so be doing
Any task there is for you;
You are stronger, while accruing
Gain of good and wisdom, too.
Be not with the drones and shirkers,
As through life they idly stroll;
Victory belongs to workers,
Strive and you will reach the goal.

COMMISSIONER REPORTS ON
CERTAIN STREET PROJECTS

On motion Of Col. John Biddle. tho
Engineer Commissioner. a reply will ne
sent 10 the Cathedral Heights Citizens
Association adverse to its request FOR
the Improvement OF Woodley Road ard
Wisconsin Avenue. The association ask
ed that Woodley Road be resurfaced,
and that the $4,000 appropriated for
Wisconsin Avenue be used in cutting
down the grade between Thirty-seventh
street and Massachusetts Avenue.
In his statement Colonel BiddIe shows
that the cost OF lowering the grade on
Wisconsin Avenue would vary from
$4,000 to $4,000 according to the plan
pursued with reference to the grade OF
the intersecting streets. He says either
OF these amounts is so much in excess
OF $4,000 that it would not be good policy
to start the work on that amount. Colo
mel Biddie suggests that the money be
spent in the Improvement Of Wisconsin
Avenue farther out, north OF the Pierce
Mil Road
With reference to the Improvement OF
Woodley Road, Colonel BiddIe suggests
that graveling is all the Improvement
