ed the twilight Of the tunnel under the
raised track the tiniest boy cuddled up to
the nurse and whmpered:
I'm scared, Marty. don't like de
ole black niger street"
The offensive word was barely out when
the other tiny boy snapped at it.
I'm goin' tell momma what you said,
an you'll get spanked Yah, yah, yah.
Bobbie's goin' to get spanked
The nurse drew the tiny Bobbie boy 10
her breast with a tenderness that would
have done honor to the Whitest woman
and in her voice was the wheedling rich
ness that no white woman may ever hope
to attain:
"Pollygize to Marty. sos Charlie can't
tell yoh ma. an get you spanky-spanked-
OATS good honey chile"
And the child laid its check against the
brown wrinkled face and patted 1t be-
tween his words OF amendment.
'stuse me. Marty. I means 1 like nice
white sweets I don't like Massey black
nigger-ro stweets-Marfy."
The nurse chuckled with satisfaction
that showed that the apology was a sue
cess. And for a boy so tiny that he wore
a white frock under his red coat. the de-
scription Of the twilight way through the
tunnel wasn't half bad.
While several young women were wait
ing for a car, one Of them entertained the
others with q set-to she had just had with
some fellow boarder who must have been
addicted to that thing which is called the
social bluff
''Oh. he's the greatest fraud. Never
spends cent on any of US girls at the
house. but keeps forever talking about
the money it costs him to beau others
around He can't sit down at the table
without Dragging about the theaters and
dances he takes his society friends to, and
of how hard it is to have to pay for flow
ers and cabs and things. out of govern
ment salary. Oh he's the limit, but !
guess he'll quit now. the way settled
him at dinner last night. He had COM
menced. with the soup, to tell about TAX
ing a friend to the theater the night be-
fore. 1t was expensive, OF course for
they had orchestra chairs down front and
supper afterward; she was such dear
girl and he was under such social oblisa-
lions 70 her. And by that time, with
everybody at the table listening while he
let himself out, clipped in with:
II take notice young men don't find
It necessary to pay us any social obliga-
tionS they may owe US. so when We girls
go to the theater 1t has to be Dutch treat
Well, we saw you at the theater last night
and you were alone. You sat right in
front of Us in the peanut gallery Girls.
Miss Blank and 1 had cornered him =!
Every time l think OF it laugh until it
bursts me!'
The hilarious merriment that greeted
the outcome of the story showed that the
listeners thought 1t one OF the best jokes
ever!
Not one Of them realized that the
cruelty which hurts another is worse than
the foolishness which hurts only itself.

Horticultural papers of recent date
cite the case Of a strawberry grower
at Creston, 3, c.. who last year raised
2,206 crates of strawberries-52.04 .044
quarts-from four and one-eighth
acres. In explaining the remarkable
yield obtained the grower attributes
1t TO careful preparation of and en-
Cichlng the land before setting the
plants; thorough cultivation. shipping
blossoms, layering the runners and
spraying two or three times the rows
and scattering nitrates and covering
with mulch pulled from berry rows
the second season. In explanation OF
the prices received for berries, never
less than S2.20 per crate. he lays espe-
cial stress on making preparations for
the picking and packing Of the fruit
and shipping TO but one dealer IN
town. From the standpoint of pro
ductlveness and shipping quality he
ranks the varieties Of berries he has
grown in the following order Of ex-
cellence: Dunlap. Warheld. Parsons

Prolific and Lady Thompson. This
