When the breeze is on the upanids, and
the sun is on your hair,
Where's another prairie blossom in
the wide world anywhere
Half so sweet as you, Sarita, sweet Wild
blossom of the range,
You to whom all life is Young, yet bub-
bling full of gleeful change,
You whose green ancestral acres are no
more than just place
Where little maid may scamper in .
lifting laughing race
With bloom-crested grassy pillows,
where, far MS the eye can see,
Sky and plain, and all the wide world
-all-Are sharers in your gleel
You'll not need your heet-limbed pony,
nor RATA not at all,
When modern knight comes squirting
through the dusk of evenfal1
You will round him up, Sarita, never
giving him chance;
You will hold hin roped and captive
with the sweetness of glance
All of that is i'll the future, with the
stories yet untold;
But may that same future bring you all
the gladness it can hold;
May your whole life be a playground
glad, dear, as it is today;
If you ever grow a-weary may it be from
too much play.

Dispositions Taken Before Referee
!, Locke Are Expected to Prove That
Arritt "Robbed" His Own Safe With
Deliberate intention of Defraud'ns
5 Creditors.

Probably nothing could happen IN
connection with the "Arrltt mystery"
that would cause surprise. unless AR
rift should happen to come Lack here
of his own accord. There are, how
ever, some interesting facts being
brought out In the investigation now
being made by Referee In Bankruptcy
John b. Locke, who is preparing to
have the bankrupt jeweller indicted
for concealing assets from his trus-
tee.
1t has developed that Everett f..
Arritt Is not the name of the MISS
ing bankrupt. 1t is the name of his
small son aud was adopted by the
jeweller for reasons OF his own when
he went into business here over a
year ago. Probably the change in
name WAS in some way connected
with the fact that the jeweller left
Covington, Va. and one or two other
places under such circumstances that
lie deemed 1t advisable to leave his
history behind.
John Henry Arrltt.
John Henry Arrltt Is the name the
man did business under In Coylngton
and elsewhere. This changed In name
gave the authorities some little trou.
Bile when they were looking up AR
rittB record but II Is now known
that when Chief of Police Reynolds
had his first talk with the man after
the alleged robbery. Arrltt confessed
that he had been usTIlg Tie name Of
his son.
When Arrltt claimed that his safe
had been robbed of several thousand
dollars In cash and about $4,000 IN
,tnmounted diamonds, few people be-
lieyed that q robbery had been COM
mitted. At the same time there was
no tangible evidence upon which to
base q charge against the jeweller.
No Robbery
Now, however, 1t is proposed to
prove that there was no robbery;
that Arritt himself damaged his
safe and gave out the robbery story
with the deliberate intention of
defrauding his creditors, Ii Is un.
derstond that the dispositions which
nave been taken by Referee Locke
make out n strong case against the
teweller and there seems to be little
doubt that nm indictment will be
returned when the case Is taken
before the Federal grand jury
When the indictment is returned
the task Of finding Arritt will be
UP to the Federal authorities. q

There Is no better rule for COOL

possible. Regularity can be acquired
by making habit of this. Foolish
