Her MudQuards.

She was a schoolgirl of the age
that is wrongly called awkward, and
should be called natural. She had
joined a hockey club. and was ar
rayed for the first time in the school
hockey costume. An admiring lunch
con party stood around and inspected
her before starting for the fray. There
were brothers, uncles. friends. and
they said the right thing about the
serge blouse and the colored skirt
and the Tam O. Shanter. But this
was not enough for the heroine Of
the moment Emboldened by sue
cess, she made a duck at the bottom
hem of her skirt, which though short
was 1ot short enough for her pur-
pose. you have not seen the best
thing of all" she said, proudly; look

Colors for Emotions,

Leon Gozlan, the poet. has given
the impression OF colors which he
gets from emotions. Thus he says:
Piety makes him feel pale blue;
resignation pearl gray; Joy a pretty
apple green; safety a pale chocolate:
pleasure a beautiful velvety pink;
sleep suggests tobacco smoke; refec-
tion is orange: pain a sooty black,
and boredom is chocolate
Having to pay bill makes him feel
lead -colored, while to receive money
calls up visions of flaming red Rent
day is burnt Sienna. To go for the
first time TO meet the object of his
admiration gives him week tea color
feeling, but the twentieth meeting
like the color OF very strong tea No
color is suggested by happiness, for he
Gays he has never known It.

mill consisting of two turbines is being
connected with the Hudson mill by ex-
tending counter shaft along the south
side of the power building, where belt
will run directly from the pully on the

PREPARING FOR
SWIMMING RACES
MANY PROSPECTIVE COMPETE
TORS IN LOCAL AQUATIC
SPORTS-RACES IN SEPTEMBER.

There is a good deal of talk about
town, relative to the coming swimming
races that will be held in the near flu
ture to compete for the championship
OF the islands. There are a large num-
Der of good swimmers in the islands,
and the question of who is the best has
remained in doubt for some time
Swimming has had a great boom in
,.e United States lately.
The islands have turned out some
very good swimmers, among them be-
ing Paul Neumann, Jr., who has held
several world records, and Dan Renear,
who has beaten a number of good men
on the coast and in the East.
Some of the best swimmers here are
hardly ever seen in the water, and il
would only take little while before
they would be able to get into shape
and do something. The exact date for
the races have not been decided on as
yet but they will probably be held
some time in September
