Birthplace a Landmark

OtTlnpldCe q Landmark
Dear Aunt Laurie:
My birthplace is Highland Park
think 1T is the prettiest place in Los
Angeles. I was only months old
when we left there but as [ have
grown up we have been there many
in the valley very often in summer
When grandma and grandpa first went
there the place was more beautiful
than now. I mean the dear old home
place, because everything down in the
valley was wild and natural Grandpa
had twelve acres and the beautiful
mountain stream went right through
it. l love to go there and wade in it,
The Occidental college was not there
then nor very few homes like now.
Grandma's house was very large and
the grounds around it very beautiful,
but l love the valley most of ALL The
first school ever held in Highland Park
was in the old adobe house on grand
pas place and the first Sunday school
was in his new barn. / wish l knew
I could some day own the old home
for my very own. 1t almost seems
wrong to see other people in it, al
though they keep it SO beautiful The
old adobe house was one of the old
landmarks. / wish l could take you
with us on a picnic and let you see
how beautiful it is. I know you would
say, mo wonder you would like to live
here again" LOIS MOTION,

cried one of the boys, ''here comes Mr..
Brown in his big sled that has two
horses hitched TO it, The boys asked
him if they could tie their sleds on
behind and he said they could. They
all tied their sleds on and away they
went up the hill. But now it was
growing dark and the snow began to
fall The boys bade each other good by
and they all went in different direction
toward their homes.

My Dear Aunt Laurie: I was born IN
San Pedro on Third street. When I first
remember San Pedro there was only
one sidewalk. Now the whole town has
sidewalks and most of it is severed.
We had only one schoolhouse and now
we have four schools. The names of
the schools are Barthon Hill, Fifth
street school, Sixteenth street school
and high school. You had to walk 70
the lighthouse in those days, and now
cars go TO it. This is the first time

A RsIIolous Authors statement.

For several years I was afflicted
with kidney trouble and last winter
I was suddenly stricken with a severe
pain IN my kidneys and was confined
to bed eight days unable TO get up
without assistance. My urine con-
tanned a thick white sediment and

commenced taking Foleys Kidney
Remedy, and the pain gradually
abated and finally ceased and my
urine became normal. I cheerfully

In supervising the assortment of
some old material in the yard during

his supervision a big colored fellow,
who seemed to be shy good hat
Taking this occasion to get a joke
off on his superior officer, he ad-

thought, the man on whom the trick
was to be played was present, and
when Sam told his mission he at once
saw the plot, and retaliated.

The parishioners complained to the
bishop, who told the parson he must
read it. Now it so happened that the
creed may be said or sung" so on
the following Sunday the parson ad
dressed his congregation thus: Next
follows Athanasius' creed, either to be
said or sung, and, with heavens leave
will sing it. Now, clerk, mind what
you are about" After this they both
struck up and sang it with great glee
to fox-hunting tune, which, having
previously been practiced, was well
performed The indignant parishion.
ers sent word hot haste to the bishop
about what had happened, but he said
ne could do nothing, as the creed had
been sung, so the parishioners decided
to dispense with it altogether in flu

To prove how tame or bold they
were, the doctor fed them by plac.
ing pieces of biscuit on his cap. The
birds soon displayed much skill in
swapping up the food. Then the doctor
placed a piece of biscuit in his mouth
The gulls were shy at first, but ulti
