BAD DAY FOR "MERRY
 WID0W"HATS SAYS PREDICTION

All merry widow hats that appear at the base ball park this afternoon are going to get wet. The weather man said nothing about the hats, but he said that he didn't see the game presumably the merry widow had something to do with his not seeing it. and hence the prophecy of rain. Not that ram is a sure thing, but the probabilities are that 1t will sprinkle more or less during the next two days The weather man looked wise and said unsettled weather for tomorrow. with scattering showers all over the South"
 The rain which may prevent Ryan's bunch from mopping up again with the Crackers. If 1t gets here according to schedule. will be due to a low baro- meter area central yesterday over Texas and reaching as far north as the Missouri valley and upper Missis- sppi valley. This low area is slowly moving in an eastwardly direction. and unless something unexpected happens during the early morning hours will cause a slight precipitation in or Wednesday. Along with the low area Is steadily increasing temperature.
 While generally flair weather pre- vailed over the country southeast of Mississippi yesterday, an extremely low barometer area was giving very unsettled weather over Texas and the upper Mississippi and Missouri valleys This area was reported as m towing very slowly eastward. and in all proba bility win reach Montgomery and vicinity by this noon

THE TIES OFLFE
by M n#mh ruu umr wV rn uT nm

. taSss oI influenza, was when in the low conuon Following this seized with an
 oI pneumonia. to which. in O rev oays. he succumbed. Harold was hea.t-oroken. But there was much work 70 be done. and he tried to attend .o ", Tor the state of his fathers nhances was a despairing one. The receorsnip or Carstone was but a poor one. and there had not been any oppor- tunity of saving.
 when Squire Norman had returned to the house with him after the funeral, ne sat Tn silence holding the boys hand tlll ne had wept his heart out. By this time the two were old friends, and the Doy was not afraid or too shy to nresk down before him. There was sumclent Of the love of the old genera tion to begin with trust in the new.
 Presently, when the storm was past and Harold had become his own man again. Norman said:
 And now, Harold, I want you to lis- ten to me. You know. my dear boy. that I am your fathers oldest friend. and right sure am that he would approve of what say You must come home with me to live. know that in his last hours the great concern of your dear fathers heart would have been for the future of his boy. And I know too, that 1t was a comfort to him to feel that you and I are such friends. and that the son of my dea rest old friend would be as son to me We have been friends. you and I. long time. Harold; and we have learned to trust, and I hope to love, one an- other. And you and my little stephen are such friends already that your com ing into the house will be a joy to us all Why. long ago, two or three years ago. when first you came she said to me the night you went away: Daddy. wouldn't 1t be nice if Harold could come here altogether"
 The remembrs nee of those pleasant days came back to Harold so strongly. and with them so keen a sense of his great loss. that his grief broke out afresh. The other was patient with him: he understood. When the second burst of grief was over he went on:
 And it will be a great comfort to me to have you with me. After all. Stephen Is only a little girl, and you will be her big brother and look after her and keep her from h ,rm. And you have been educated so well that you can help her with her lessons We two. my girl and l. shall. | know, be happy: and I hope you will also be when time has dulled little the edge of your grief. Don't ever be afraid to cry. my dear boy. now or hereafter. when you think of that good good man!'
 And so Harold An Wolf came back with the Squire to Normanstand. and from that day on became a member of his house and as a son to him. Ste- phen's delight at his coming was, of course. largely qualified by her sympa- thy with his grief; but 1t would have been hard to give him more comfort than she did in her own pretty way. Putting her lips to his. she kissed him, and holding his big hand in both of her little ones, she whispered softly:

At first Harold was shy: but shyness could not last long in the company of | Stephen. He looked SO big and strong perched up on tse big horse. and his experiences were so much more dag zling than her own that she simply adored him. The ride was all too short.
 That evening when going to bed she came to say goodnight to Daddy. After she had kissed him she also kissed old MT, Harold as she now called him. and as a matter of course kissed Harold also. He colored up at once. It was the first time that girl had ever kissed him.
 The next day from early morning until bedtime was one Iong joy 10 interest that he had not been shown. there were few of the little secrets which had not been shared with him as they went about hand in hand. Like all manly boys Harold was good to little children and patient with them even if there must he a certain exercise of the Jirture of self denial. i5uL on tnlS ocCaSlOn no eUOfI was re- Quired.

When the carraige had swept behond the farthest point in the long avenue and when Harold's cap waving from the window cous no longer be seen. Squire Norman turned to go in. but paused in obe"- fence to the unconscious restraint Of Stephens hand. He waited patiently till with long sigh she turned to him and they went in together.

AT the meeting of the City Inn

evening it was decided to give
the fourth annual ball some
evening of the first week in June
and an ice cream social on the
evening of July 4.
1t was voted to contribute

of the drainage canal in the east

a gravel and cinder walk on Cal
