hard to tell. Mr.. Scantling was chosen
for the gondoliers after much trial, and
he will appear in a Neapolitan duet with
Miss Edith Spofford. but he cannot be a
goDdolier and king too.
Until Preston Gibson fell i'll a few days
ago there was an understanding that
he would be asked to ascend the throne
of the carnival. but his illness makes that
impossible.
Receives Homage of Dancers.
What is needed is a tall man, who will
look well in king clothes, and who can
stand in the front of a large assemblage
of kirmess dancers and demand as much
attention by his looks alone as front
page illustration in a modern magazine.
His duties will be to receive homage
for few moments from several Of the
dancers of the kirmess, and to finally ac-
cept the offer Of the throne, which will
be empty when the curtain arises on the
festival scene. Having once accepted
the throne, the carnival starts in all its
gayety. After the prelude the king lie
expected to recite q prologue. about one
minute in length; after which the dance
of the nations, with its interpolated
specialties. will start.
Candidates for the kingship may apply
to Miss Lila NJ. Stewart, who is directing
the kirmess. Miss Stewart is daily al

means Of doing this. This movement
of soil moisture to the surface. from

stops evaporation to a large extent

that frequent cultivation Of the soil

ton Of from seven to ten inches Of
water where the rainfall is not over
thirteen inches. Thus, moisture that
otherwise might escape into the air
lis kept in the soil where 1t can be
used by the seed in Fastening germ
Enation and in supplying water to the
growing plant. Cultivation not only
aids in conserving this moisture by
preventing it's evaporation. but it also
prevents broken surface which
catches the rain and snow. 1t per-
