Daddy Bedtime
q. Daddy Begins
Story To TaE
About Spring

- ADDY came In hummIng gayy.
And now it's heigh no for spring. cried he
SPRING. Jack and Evelyn glanced out Of the window where a
March gale was blowing
"Oh, aye, yes" cried daddy merrny "Dont you know that the SUI goes
into the rams pasture o March q. Then 1t is spring"
Nov, daddy, what do you meanT' cried the children. Daddy sat down
and began:
1.-THE sun, you know, goes whiring through the sky In an oval path that
Is shaped not unlike the outline of q watermelon when Jack tries to draw one
on a piece Of paper. Such a path Is called an enhpse.
"The people who first studied the SUI and stars divided this path into
twelve equal parts, which they called by the name OF the group of stars to
be found in that part Of the sky.
ION the 2st Of March the sun sails into that part of the heavens where
i5 found the group OF stars called the ram. Where we live spring begins
when the sun gets into this part of the sky.
Something strange has happened ever since the star gazMs OF thou
sands of years ago marked on the sky thus. You see, although the sun moves,
the stars have been moving, too, and now the stars called the ram instead of
being just where the I'LL enters the patch Of sky set apart for the ran it has
moved over TO the other end OF the space and In time M doubt will cross into
the next field, which by right belongs to the bull
"As the SUI rolls around in his path he in urn passes through the starry
fields OF the ram, the bull, the twins, the crab, the lion, the maiden, the
scales, the scorpion, the archer the goat the water bearer and the fishes.
"A long time ago 1t was thought that persons born while the u ri in
q certain sign would have a disposition which could be- guessed by the sign
"For instance, it would have been thought that your daddy, who was
born when the sign was in the sign of leo or the lion. would be a Hercea and
hoodthrsy person instead Of the gentle creature that you all know.
ut was also thought to be lucky to be born while the sur vas in certain
lions field were supposed to be clever.
While I will admit that some great men have come into the world while
the sun passed by the lion. vet poor daddy hasn't been able ia get much credit
for cevGness, though it's no Joke to think up a brand new bedtime story
every night for such critical youngsters as yon two"

H AUDITORIUM.

-
The movement for an auditorium in
Fargo has received a great impetus.
Everybody admits an auditorium is
today one Of Fargo's most imperative
necessities. There is a general SEN
timent that the matter should not be
longer delayed.
Several prominent workers in the
interests of an auditorium have volun-
tarily subscribed large sums. Others
will join them in contributions for the
fund. There may be some difference
of opinion as to the amount of money
necessary-the best method of raising
