The Alerts played the first game
of ball on their tour of northern
Wayne at Lake Como. The game
resulted in favor of Aldenville, with
a score of 14-O. The feature of the
game was the playing of Starnes

ANTS AND THE WEATHER.

when you go out on cloudy
morning and find the ants busily en-
gagged in clearing out their nests and
dragging the sand and bits of earth
to the surface, you may be sure that,
no matter how cloudy it is, there will
be no rain that day, and the proba-
bilities are for several days of good
weather. says a gardener.
"On the other hand, if you see
the ants about the middle of a spring
or summer afternoon hurrying back
to the nest and sentinel out trot-
ting ground in every direction look
ing up stragglers urging them to go
home as soon as they can get there,
you may figure on rain that after
noon or night. When the last of the
wanderers is found the picket hurries
in, and the nest is securely sealed
from the inside to keep out the water
1t is very seldom that ants are taken
by surprise by the approach of a
shower, but once in while when be-
lated or too far away to get home in
time they shelter themselves under
the thickest, broadcast leaf they can
find, and there they stay and hold on
until the rain is over. When an ants
nest is washed out and the ants
drown an examination will always
show that the disaster was due not
so much to lack of preparation as to
accident, stream from an unexpect-

two bricks or downpour that caused
fall or the washing away of the
bank in which the nest was placed"

GIRLS ROOMS.

Early in her teens, girl feels the
impulse to add cheer and beauty to
her surroundings, to make her room
the interpreter of her higher life, and
to fashion joy or contentment out of
things that serve her daily needs.
There is an art and high art in Civ
ing soul to things and in realizing
the beauty that is fitting to the place
that belongs to US. Sometimes a girl
thinks that riches bring beauty to a
home. That is not true. knowledge
and appreciation, good taste and i'm
agination, and willing spirit, these
are the helpers. Do not mistake lux
ury, as young people often do, for
beauty. Learn to look deeper into
the heart of things. I often think
that the great thing that I learned at
college, the best lesson Of all my stud
les, of languages and history, OF
mathematics, of chemistry and as
tronomy, of music, was just this, that
the universe is universe of laws
The sweetest melody, as well as the

THE PRIVILEGE OF GROWING
OLD.

1t is a precious privilege to grow
old. Slowly the realization comes as
you learn to subdue the eager, rest
less spirit that was still selfish a lit
tie while ago when the Importance
of material things was exaggerated.
The wonder of it all is that the spirit
within you is more and more refresh
ed, now that you know you are grow
ing old; the miracle is that it is as
young as it ever was, and you often
smile because so few behold the
miracle-because so few understand.
1t is this deathless youth of the spir-
it that gives you serene assurance of
survival after the semblance of age
has been put away. So peace dwells
with you.-The New Idea Woman's

KEEP THE HEART SINGING.

A pathetic and significant story is
told of Charles Darwin, the great
scientist, that when a boy he was
very fond Of music, showing evil
dences of unusual talent in that di-
rection. Early in life, however, he
became thoroughly absorbed in scien-
tific and other pursuits, and in conse-
quence neglected music entirely, not
even allowing himself time to hear
it and devoting no thought to it at
all. Many years after when he had
achieved great success and was wide
ly renowned as one of the worlds
greatest scholars, he stood by the
piano as a great musician interpreted
the splendid creations of Beethoven
and Mozart, saying as the tears glis-
tened upon his face: ut means moth
ing to me now. The music has no
message l can comprehend"
He had neglected the musical fac
ulty until it had utterly atrophied,
and with complete absorption in the
| facts of the natural world about him
had ignored certain finer things until
the lifting call of music and song
found no response in his heart. Re-
alizing little something of what he
had lost, he is reported to have said
Had l my days to live over again,
think I would make it the rule of my
life to listen to some good music
every day, and then perhaps the
heart that has grown cold and hard
would be more responsive to the joys
that are in life for every man If he
cultivates the faculty of looking TO,
and recognizing them"
| The experience of Darwin is mo-
unusual. Too many people are crowd
ing their lives so full of the care.
