WHEN SAILoR JACK COMES HOME
(Hon orable Mention

Johnnie is tired, Johnny is bruised, Johnnie is
bankrupt; but Johnnie is happy. Johnny had spent all
the money in his bank which amounted to five cents.
After going thru his pockets thoroy he succeeded in
scrapng up three cents With the money in his
pocket he went into the library where his father
reading tPapa, need money bad, he said.
tWhat for7' asked his father. 'Oh for fireworks of

hung his head and replied 81 wanted candy and
forgot about the Fourth I have eight cents tho.
ssWel, if you pull all those weeds in the onion bed
guess you have quarter But you'd better let
buy your fireworks said his father and he added about
three dollars to the eight cents.

to procure matches and peep into the cupboards
Christopher Columbus! What pile Of goodies!' he
CALCULATED with broad grin. He felt of the cake
thereby to his astonishment making big hole in the
frosting Grabbing several cookies for consolation he
went out to fire off bunch of recrackers Then with
hole in his finger also in his suit he rushed up
town leaving dazed household behind him. Not
the stores open much to his disgust he decided
to wake Bud his chum This done he suggested that they
awaken the people and have fun by shooting off
several recrackers at each door and shouting of

earnestly that they left the highway mile
from town On returning they engaged by early
shopopener for odd jobs and hour later each
richer (hence happer) by half dollar. After breakfast
Johnny made to account for the CAKE pleasure he
hardly expected it being the Fourth But that not

rade and inspired with patriotism. He patronzed
the confectionery stands and listened to the speeches be-
tween the intervals of dsposing of crackerack candy
ETC., and showing his powder'' to the boys In fact
he declared he having the best time of his life.
And the dinner! When Johnny had eaten all he possibly

The evening before the Fourth he went into the
woodshed pasted some red paper around length of
stoveppe rolled up brown wrapping paper and put
it in end of the pipe Then taking small frecracker
from his pocket he put it into the of the roll of
wrapping paper allowing only the fuse to show. The
morning of the Fourth after the breakfast work
done Johnny's mother went upstairs Selling this op
porunity placed giant frecracker in the center Of
the sittngroom and called 'Mother! mother Come here
I want to show you something - Then Johnny match
in hand; stationed himself beside the recracker Just
his mother entered door he struck the match and
touched it to the fuse With little she threw
up her hands and fell to the floor in dead faint. When
she opened her eyes again she said, H How foolish

JOHNNY SEES TIE FIREWORKS.

Johnny arose early on the Fourth of nineteen hum

street at four clock the afternoon and afterwards
all sorts of fireworks in front of the fire hall. Johnny
preferred the fireworks to the parade, but was almost
afraid to ask permission to go to the fireworks Tor

breakfast and asked the dreaded question NO, John

father would know nothing of it. 81 just will CO., he
cried and he turned his steps toward the hall The fire
works were beginning as Johnny pushed his way thru
the throng to seat the gallery First skyrockets
were sent up into the air. followed by numerous works OF
all kinds Johnny had anything SO wonder
full Soon a boy selling candy and peanuts came along

The Sounds of Battle.

Only those who lie in the firing
line and near the constant screech
of the shells as they cleave their
terrific way through the air above
know the true sounds of modern
war. The whiplike smack of the
bursting shell, the swish of the
scattering bullets, are nothing to
the mocking screech of these fear
full messengers of death as they
pursue each other, rs if in compe-
tition to complete the awful object
of their hideous mission. The
whole welkin is discordant with
their tumult. You feel the rush
of misplaced air, splinters sing in
your ears, the ealth is in constant
trembIe with the violence of the
discharge; you feel it pulsate
against your cheek pressed to the
moist mud of the parapet, and
then bullet saps the life-blood of
comrade whose elbow has touch
ed yours day and night for forty
hours. There is a limit to human
endurance in these straits.-

1t looks like the people nova
days are slowly poisoning them
selves, if the reports of chemists
on the examination of common
food products are correct. Near
ly every variety of preserved food
has preservative or colorant that
is held to be deleterious to the health
of the consumer. Many of the
staple articles of food contain a
cheap adulterant, which, while not
absolutely harmful, makes an in
ferior article of food. Thus we
nonchalentIy 60 on absorbing pois
ons without serious protest, recog-
nizing only that the modern spirit
of commercialism is ready to sac
rifce health and life for gain.
Could we not just as we'll have
pure food products? If it is so
easy a matter to discover the dele
terious substances in what we eat,
is it not just as easy to locate the
responsibility upon the proper per-
sons! If half that has been said
upon this subject is true, the peo-
pie are not only careless, but re-
prehensibly 80. We need an up
lift from the cheat and dangers of
modern commercialism.
