Has a Stepmother

A strapping lad of 12 was registered
in one of the public schools of Philadel-
phia. He readily gave the several facts
called for, but he did not know whether
his birthday fell on November 10 or
December 10.
The principal was surprised at this
display of ignorance on the part of so
old child, and he asked how it came
to pass that he hadn't learned the date
of his birth. "I wasn't born" said the
boy, "I had stepmother."-Min

Los Angeles it looks like bold stroke of policy for
Pasadena to vote bond issue of 81 000O wherewith

for sagacity and ripe judgment. The people of that
splendid city know that adequate water system Is
question of primary Importance to future deveopment
They know that the immediate appreciation of property
values will amount to vastly more than the cost of a
municipal water system. Hence the $1OOOOOO water
proposition carried by the necessary two.thrds
vote with a good margin to spare.
Long Beach has heretofore shown it's progressiyeness
in the way of large expenditures for public improve
ments and the bond issue of $4,000 for the purchase
of additional fire apparatus not financially imnor

from the platform Of the Methodist
church in this city yesterday after
noon. His listeners we're held in

Evangelist Sunday attracted one Of
the largest congregations Of people
that has yet occupied the Methodist
church. The floor of the main build

were filled and then there were many
who stood during the discourse.
Through respect to the evangelist
and the Ministerial Alliance of this
city the merchants willingly closed
the doors of their places Of business
at /: :45 O'Clock and so kept them
until o'clock in the evening. The
day was like the usual Sunday in
Florence. The church was we'll filled
an hour before Mr.. Sunday began to
preach and several people were unable
to gain admission to the building and
were reluctantly compelled to return
to their homes. The interest those
who gained admittance displayed in
, what was said was eloquent testi.
mony to Rev. Sundays power to hold
the attention of his hearers, although
many Of them had to submit to physi-
cal discomfort in hearing what he had
to say.
Many were down from the coal
camps and every hitohing post and
: tree around the church had horse
9 tied to it.
t The day is one that will long be
remembered both by the Ministerial
Alliance and the hundreds who heard
the speaker ~ one Of the greatest sue.
, cesses the Alliance has ever under
taken.
Tie speaker, who was accompanied
/, by about dozen other people, re-
