HOTEL BURLINGTON SOLD?
IT'S Said Woodburys Have Bought Dc
Ianey'a Equity.

II seems that the much talked OF Hotel
Burlington property has at last changed
hands and Is in a fair way to pass into
the possession Of a single owner And yet
the alleged owners will not admit their
proprietorship.
1t is reported that the Woodburys have
acquired G NJ. Delaneys equity in the
Hotel Burlington property. L. p. Wood
bury when interviewed Monday by
a Free Press reporter refused to talk
about the matter. He did not, however,
deny the purchase Of the property.
Max l.. Powell. who is G. NJ. Delaney'=
trustee and agent. with sole authority to
sell, says that in order to close the mat
ter - promptly and give every OPP
portunity to develop the property at n
early date an auction will be held on
March 26. After paying the creditors and
oil expenses the balance remaining wit
be turned over to the Delaney equity.
If the Delaney equity is In the possess
sion of the Woodburys they cannot tdke
possession until Mr. Powell acts or until
the creditors of G.. NJ. Delaney are paid
The case looks very much like a skain
of yarn that the cat has had for an no IT
or two.

TIKI, WINTER SEA

1t Is perhaps only the wide fat -snrcad
Southern Sea that will yield long winter
day on its edge. when one can lie still
staring. and when the eyes. shortsirhted
from days indoors. can rest themselves
on the far-distant edges % the world and
the gray curves OF the overarch'ng SKY.
Then one can watch the chameleon-like
changes on the seas surface. the colors
fitting from Furnished steel to a chry.o-
praise mntrix with serpentine veins of
purple. Or the wind growing brlsker
the surge filings up gorgeous column Of
lucent Jade, and the steep waves hurtle
over one another, ridge breaking ridge into
strings of foamy pearls. SIX hours with
no happenings but the shifting of the
winds. the slow-footed tourney Of the sun
from east to west. the sight Of u velvet
hooded, white-throatcd duck. twenty Yards
out at sea. and the passing of n two
wheeled cart roped to a mule. with n
sleepy darky Inside. leave room for
thought. In such boundess spaces, how
ever, mental activity inclines to grow
Quiescent and one becomes a mere sensate
creature with five senses lazily taking in
impressions to be thought out later. one
becomes as still as in the might OF our
forebeings.'
The winter sea will not show us its sun
setting in the waves in peace. but must
needs hustle us up and set us striding as
the rays get slant and hit across the
water And as we go, eyes still yearnnS
seward. we know that for the day alone
in great spaces we at least carry home 4
queter heart: we meet life less cXcrbitant.
less eager; with the memory of the quiet
and the vastness in cur minds We arc less
fretted by desires, less unnerved by pas =
sionate preferences. less hopeful of events.
less depressed by limitations Even as
the sea and the earth accept the eternal
twirling OF the ball whereon they dwell
so we too learn 10 accept life simply and
candidly, taking the moment for what II
Is worth and realizing that "diuturnity Is

VI AR II


When old Boreas is blowing DER the mere
With frosty touch that softly nips your
ear.
When your hat skips off alone
For TO travel on its own,
Like bird that blthely sails the atmo-
sphere;
When the air Is filled with objects rich
and rare,
Awnings, signs, and parasols off on tear
When the dustheaps ali arise
And go scooting toward the skies.
Spreading pretty little -mo,es cvorv-
where;
When the loya! son Of good old sainted
Pat
Puts little sprg of shamrock in his
hat,
Ard his manly chest is seen
Decked In ri5bon brightly green,
And the Orangenan finds business ra,h-
or flat
When the millinery centres are all gay
With he coming styles to bloom on East
cr day,
And the shops the whole day long
Hold a struggling, striving throng
| or the ladies seeking head-gear distingue,
| When the dummies in the windows are
arinyed
| In fashion TO make Solomon afraid,
! In such gowns beyond compare
As would make the ancients stare.
And the heart OF Sheha's queen have
quite dismayed,
When one day is mild of manners as a
clam,
And the next is like a copper-fastenod
| ram,
| And nobody ever knows
| Just what sort OF underclo'cs
| viii turn out to be a mockery ana sham;
! When the mercury is nervous as a colt,
And your furry oVercoat begins to moult-

| At such odds YOU can get
That the merry month of March is taking

Do farmers eat the proper
sort OF food2

The farmer of today buys a much
larger proportion OF the food that goes
on the table than he did ten years ago.
It's good thing that this is so because
he has a great variety to select from.
He should. however, use great care
in selecting for the best results In
health and sire til.
The widespread tendency in the CITY
70 increase the amount Of Quaker Oats
eaten is due very largely to the recent
demonstrations by scientific men that
the Quaker Oats fed man is the man
with greatest physical endurance and
greatest mental vigor.
Farmers should give this subjec,
careful thought and should increase
the quantity of Quaker Oats eaten by
themselves, their children and the
farm hands.
The regular size 10c package is not
as convenient for the farmer az the
large size family package at 26c. 81
