the Wires.

Rotoura has been laughing over the
wording OF a notice that has been
placed by the public works department
on some Of the electric wire posts on
the road 10 Okere. In New Zealand.
Some time ago a Maori youth, who
seemed TO have a misguided taste for
experimenting. threw a long piece oil

TO Rotoura from the power station at
the Ogere Falls.
The own was AT once plunged In
darkness for two or three hours until

maybe a year or two older.
Laugh at them-do! Giggle and
smirk and say, There's no fool k

You ought TO be slapped on the
wrist. Two people of forty can be he
very happiest two people in all this
big. wide world. I'm perfectly sure
you don't expect the welded GeneV-
ieve and James of forty TO be tired
of each other and nct to care for any
kisses. thank you? Because II you do,
you are simply undermining the very
foundations Of the great American
home. And besides, 1t isn't true.
James had once been in love with
Genevieve. Away back in those days
when he was a slim young and she
was the sauciest girl he ever saw
and the sweetest-James had been
very badly in love with Genevieye.
But he had been afraid 10 tell her So
or too slow, or just careless. or he
didn't have enough money or some
thing equally stupid. So he said never
a word to Genevieve about IL. hen
Il is very likely that he was afraid
Genevieve hadn't cared even a tiny
bit for him. Because James was a
modest youth. Yes. there are too Few
of them in the world-worse luck.
Genevieve will never tell whether
she knew a thing about ii or not-in
hat old time when she wore little
white frocks and pinned apple bios
SONS under her white chin and looked
like a bunch OF apple blossoms her
self. Genevieve wears little white
frocks still on the warm summe
eyenings-but no more apple bios
SONS. Though she will tuck a bunch
OF violets into her belt or cuddle q
big red rose.
So Genevieve will never tell whetn'
or she knew about James. She just
laughs and says, why. OF course, !

Which Is a pleasant Action, OF course
There isn't a word OF truth In IL.
But down in the depths OF her hear
abe whispers. THAT is an awful story
because n I had known"

voice trembling a bit. "Geneyieye, /
want you very much"
Very well. James" whispered back
Geneyieye. "and / only wonder how |
waited as patiently as | did for you TO
tell me so"
james laughed a bit then-just a
little, low, pleasant laugh like the
tone you get from a VOL when you
pet It nicely-a laugh that exactly
matched the tremble in his voice
when he said he wanted Genevieye.
Very much, oh. very much, James
wanted Geneyieve. For James was

"And glad enough to get you"
smothers Genevieye, her face down
on his shoulder, and both her hands
clasped tight about his neck. II was

ways been as big-as big-well, at
least big enough TO take good care OF

ing that's all there is to the guberna-
torial campaign now, for these two
men are the only avowed candidates.
though other names are mentioned as
practically certain to be in il.
The hesitancy of others in announc.
ing is principally due to the uncer-
tainty as TO when the vacancy will
occur and when the primary will take
place. 1t all depends, of course. on
when Hoke Smith resigns, and nobody
knows whether it will be soon after
the legislature adjourns or not until
December, though the latter view is
inclined to.
When Governor Smith does resign.
President J. NJ. Slaton of the senate.
succeeds to the COVER
nor's chair as acting governor. Then,
according to the law. Governor Slaton
must call primary election, not soon
er than thirty days and not more thar
sixty days after he is elevated to the
office. It is general state election
that he calls. When he announces
that date then the state democratic
executive committee, of which w. c
Wright is chairman, calls a primary
and sets the date prior to that of
the general election. At this primary,
of course. the real fight occurs.

however, that some kind of special
