The Undaunted Man

crop was IN danger from drouth and
roasted wind; it was enough to make
him diseoL ISOLATE and break him, and
still the farmer grinned. He looked
across his acres, all doom ID by weather
takers who got the climate mixed; he
watched the dust clouds swirling. he
saw the corn leaves curling, he looked
the rows bstwixt; he said: Its gone.
1 reckon; it's shriveled up, by heck, an
it won't produce an ear; of course, it's
mighty grievous; such things will al
ways peeve Us-but better luck next
year," His spirit wasn't humbIed, he
neither grOaned nor grumbled, nor cast
away his tools; misfortune round him
bristled, but cheerily he whistled. and
manicured his mules. How many are IN
daunted when good things they have
wanted like bubbles disappear? How
many grin at sorrow and look toward
tomorrow and better luck next year?
That farmer, IN the future, when YOU.

Bridgeport, Conn.
By GEORGE FITCH.
Author OF SEAt Good Old SiWash-S

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, was one of the
/ n last cities to get under the wire
before the 100,0 900 class closed in
! the census of 1910. It showed 100000
| inhabitants and members of the Com
mercial club still shudder when they
think what might have happened If the
odd 1000 had bought tickets to Hartford
| instead.
Few Americans visit Bridgeport m
cold blood, but extracts from the city
can be found in every American home.
BridgepOrt's hobby Is manufacturing. It's
chief monuments are factory chimneys
and its factory whistles at noon sound
like a giant calliope. If all the eorsets
made In Bridgeport were put together
they. would squeeze the United States
into two hemispheres. Bridgeport man
ufactures tYpewTiters, monographs and
sewing machines. Bridgeport would be
a prettier CITY if its factories hadn't
grown over some of its fine old build
lngs and wiped out the haunts of some
of its first families, but it would not
be nearly as impressive In the census
returns.
Bridgeport is situated at the bottom
of Connecticut on Long Island sound. 1t

mosquitoes at all hours. Bridgeport was
first founded IN 1863, under the name
of Pequonnock- This stunted It's growth
for many years. During the revolution
Bridgeport supplied most CT the pri-
vateers for the Young nation and many
a fine old Bridgeport family got its first
start when its great-gTeat-g randfathers
shot up tho British merchant marine
and came home with boatloads of mer-
ehandise for which bills were never rem

Bridgeport, however, was really fas-
tened on the map by Phineas T Bar
mum, who removed there in 1916, and
began the collection of his Justly ceIe-
brated circus. Ever since that time
Bridgeport has been the most popular
winter resort for elephants, tigrs. boa
clowns and other circus ex-
hibits, and Bridgeport boarding houses

Now our parents have told US we can
not do this any more, as they think It
isn't nice for girls to attend dances
alone Please tell US If they are right
in their attitude We have been told
that the reason the young men do not
offer to take girls TO dances is that
their salaries are so small they cannot
afford to- AlOs please advise US wheth-
