Shortening the Hours.
From Golfers.

From Golfers.
Modern conveniences and a new spirit
have done much to make life on the farm
pleasant. But there is much yet to be
done. A young woman of intelligence
who lives on model farm with her
father was recently asked: DO you like
the farm?' There was a quick uncon-
scious sigh as the young woman hesitated
between loyalty and frankness She was
naturally domestic and by every instinct
inclined to love the country. yes
she replied. 81 like the country-and we
have 1t quite convenient now. But we
have got to get up at in the morning
and work until at night. 1 get awfully
tired sometimes, but 1t looks like we just
can't quit There will have to be some
way found to quit. That is the big rea-
girls go from the farm and SO few come
back. Telephones, automobiles, pianos,
books, community centers will not avail
unless time is found to enjoy them. Years
ago when prices were low it was often
necessary for the farmer and all his
family to work early and late to make
a living and pay the mortgage But with
better farming methods and increasing
prices that necessity Is passing. The
! farmer and his family must be able to
earn a good profit on ten or twelve hours
a day. The time has passed when in
telligent. ambitious people will be content.
even under the favorable conditions of
the great outdoors. to labor sixteen or
eighteen hours a day merely to earn a
living. 1t is good to work; but there must
be time for mental and social improve
ment and for play. The city has laws
against child labor. But the eleven-year-
old farmer boy may be sent to the field to
make full hand. Women are not allowed
to work in stores and factories more
than eight or nine hours: but often on the
farm they work sixteen or eighteen. The
economic condition that compelled druid
gerry on the farm must pass and then the
new farm management must teach people
how to live on the farm as well as how
TO raise crops.

Escort for the Holy Carpet.
tho Enrnfian Cazatto

From the Egyptian Gazette.
AS is well known to Mohammedans. but
to few Europeans, the holy carpet al
ways travels with an escort to and from
the holy cities of Medina and Mecca This
escort consists of 800 to $50 men of one
of the Egyptian infantry regiments with
two small field pieces and two quick-firing
guns, and about forty mounted men, to-
gether with their horses The object OF
such a strong escort is to protect the
sacred object from falling into the hands
of the Bedouin tribes. through whose
countries it must pass at various stages
of it's journey and who are also on the
lookout for it, as the carpet is worth
fine ransom Desperate attacks are not
infrequently made upon the holy carpet
by the Bedouins OF the desert. Hence the
strength Of the escort

Bird Tribunals.
From Harper's Weekly.

Ravens. starlings and crows are be-
lieyed to hold courts Of justice to mete
out punishment to offenders. Sometimes
they assemble in great numbers. as If
they would give great dignity to the &C.
casion. The trial sometimes apparently
endures for many days. Some birds sit
at the conclave with lowered heads, some
merely cock their heads on the branches
and look grave, while others are most
garrulous and fill the air with their COM
plants.
Naturalists studying these strange pro-
ceedings have seen an apparently selected
number of birds fall upon one orxD5re
of their number-at the close OF the
''trial'-and put them to death. after
which they dispersed In orderly fashion
and went back quietly to their nests

Water for President.
The waters of Franklin Square did not
all flow into this stream, for In 1919
they were piped i'm wooden logs to the
Presidents house. and in 1924 the cor
poration laid pipes down 18th street and
along f street to 18th, and water was
supplied to hydrants at the street cor
hers. In 1851 the government acquired
title to square 249 and further improved
the water service, but the square laid
open until few years before the civil
war. when it was filled up and improved.
and 1T now is the popular Franklin
Square. In early days the square was ia
nous playground for the boys of that
section, and it is related that the late
Col Peter Force frequently told of catch
ing sun and other small fish In the
stream above E street Besides it's being
utilized by the. tannery 1t was used I'm
the early days Of the century by brew
cry on the Avenue, which was burned
about 1919, and by Thomas Bates soap
factory, which was subsequently removed
to a site near the patent office, on G
between 9th and 18th streets.
Terminus of Tiber.
Before the waters Of the Tiber were
confined by the walls Of the canal 18th
street was regarded as its terminus, and
the waters then reached to near d street
north. in some places and several hun
dred yards on the Mall to the south, and
it was some time before the adjacent
ground was brought into use. In 1916
the canal was first opened from 18th
street to the navy yard and boats pro-
ceeded to and fro between the Potomac
and Anacostia- AT 18th street Langley &
King established an extensive lumber
yard and wood yards. Gradually other
business houses and residences were
erected. Among those recalled are the
machine shops of Rider & McKinstry,
who were succeeded by William b. Ellis
d Bro, and John MeClelland's, at 10th
street on the site of the Washington Gas
Light Company's first plant. and the flour
mill OF Coltman & Duncanson. and in

HER LOVER IS DEAD:

New York. Aug 22.-Ruth Hamil- ton, the 17-year-old Boston girl who received a bullet wound near the heart when she and Chas. Rich, aged 20, agreed to carry out a death pact Wednesday midnight, was bemoaning the fact today that her wooer had not ended her life, too. As she lay ln St. Johns hospital semi-conscious, she called to her dead lover and said, q want to die and join you.' It is said at the hospital that she is dying
 It came out that the motive for the death pact, which was agreed to at the home of relative in YOnkers, where Miss Hamilton was visiting, was the girls worry over heart dis ease and a recent injury which she sustained, making both discouraged at the future. They had been sweet hearts only a few months and no one thought their love affair was parIi- cularly serious.
