He Had Experience,

They were not an exclusive congre
cation, nevertheless they showed signs
of rebellion over the appointment OF
the new usher. HE is an excellent
young man, no doubt" they said, but
he hasn't belonged to the church very
long, and, besides, it doesn't seem
likely that a young man who was a
street car conductor until six months
ago can be up on church etiquette"
But that was the very point that the
trustees urged in vindication of their
judgment. I'VE voted him in because
he had been a conductor" they said.
I'VE need a man of that kind to deal
with the end-seat hog. He is a great.
er nuisance in the church than in the
cars. Early in the service he plants
himself at the aisle end of free pew
and later corners who are ushered into
that pew fall all over him in taking
their places. 1t takes man with grit
to make him move along. This for.
mer conductor has the grit and he has
tact gained from experience. That il
why we made him usher"

SPooNING CALLED LOST AR1
Annapolis Not What II Used to Be-
Naval Officer Declares, but He
Is Wrong.

Let us for a moment turn from the
turmoil of politics and contemplate
the classic precincts of Annapolis. In
that old town, famous for its state
house and its crabs, is situated the in
stitution which supplies us with our
gold braided officers of the navy. At
Annapolis, however, they are mere
lads, not altogether in love with their
studies, but fondly, fondly loving all
the girls.
And yet, here comes an old curmud.
geon who says that spooning at An.
napolis is not what it used to be. He
grimly asserts that the new and i'm.
posing granite buildings have taken
the romance out Of the place and that
flirting is not the sweet and tender
thing of long ago. Wherefore, he ut
tiers loud lamentations and signs fol
the days Of old.
Time has wrought changes, sure
enough, but It is in the old naval Off
Ger and not in the romantic corners
of the Naval academy. These still at
ford delicious places in which TO spoon
and the activities Of our future admt
rails bear witness to the fact.

reported their visions of devils and of
angels. We accept the reports Of our

They were about six years old.
They were climbing along an old
stone wall At least she was. He did
not seem to get the combination very
well. He stood on the sidewalk and
watched her, making OCCASIONAL abor-
tive attempts himself to scale to the
position she had attained but unable
to accomplish much. Finally she got
down on the sidewalk and showed him
how. A ledge ran along the wall She
helped him up on to this, showed him
how to grasp an upper holding and
then how to cling close, siding slowly
along with the inspiring feeling Of ac-
complishing the impossible and the
delightful sensation Of danger in the
process.

pass, or else he should not hurry so
much. Get down." was his only COM
ment. After some futile remon-
strances she let herself drop down to
the sidewalk. He passed quickly
along without looking at her or so
much as a thank you. She watched
him a moment Then she clambered
up the wall again and meekly fol-
lowed him. And the author, observ-
ing them from the window of her fiat
across the way, had an idea for her
