portrait of Fabre the author of Life
of the Spider" book which has at
tracted as wide spread attention as
Maeterlinck's Life Of the Bee"
Mr.. Fabre is a nonogenarian, born
December %, 1923 Until two or three
years ago he was practically unknown
except to scientists. Darwin recogniz-
ed him and John Stuart Mill helped
him in adversely. He has given his
life modestly to teaching entomology.
Fabre is not void of sympathy with
the humanities, as many scientists
are. He is particularly fond of his
Georgfco and is stepped in his poetry.
He also knows Fontaine by heart.
A new play by Bernard Shaw is

Androcles is a Christian martyr who

MAYHEW'S PATIENCE
GETS SEVERE TEST

There was time when Job, a well
known Biblical character, had a cor
ner o nall the patience in the world,
but that was before the time of sta
ton masters. Job lived in time
when the American travelling public
had not been invented.
Every day for three hundred and
sixty-five days in the year, Station
Master Mayhem, at the Pennsylvania
station, does stunts with his patience
that would make Job look like peev-
ish, grouchy old man afflicted with
the govt. Several hundred members
of the travelling public with nothing
to do but ask questions, help him to
welcome the pay car without blush
when it comes round.
While waiting for trains they ask
questions that cause the patient man
to doubt the sanity OF the American
people at times. =
When he goes on duty they begin:
as my train on time?"
which train must ! get on to go
to Hagerstown?"
''Doyou know Mr.. Smith who lives
in town."

DOES WOMAN DRESS
TO PLEASE PRIDE ?

Why do women love to dress?
Solomon doubtless asked the Queen
of Sheba this question, and diverse
other prominent citizens of lesser in
telligence have been propounding it
ever since to the female species about
four times per annum at that crucial
moment when a perfectly good gar
ment becomes obsolete and must be
replaced in order to keep pace with
the styles.
Besides, for protection against the
inclemency of the weather, lovely
woman is charged with dressing to
please her self pride, to vex other
women, and to please the men.
DR.. c. T. Ewart, of London, says
that it is none of these things. His
idea is that women love to dress be-
cause they are slightly insane. While
he admits that this is not deadly
form of mania, it has it's own peculiar
dangers-for the other sex.
Dr. Ewart says that this form of
mania Is common among women of
the middle class, caused by a study of
the rich gowns worn by weather.
persons. Treatment for the nerves
and complete change and rest are
regarded by the doctor as the best
cures.
Being "crazy about clothes" is no
longer a joke, but stern reality, If
the diagnosis made by DR.. >Ewart
should be correct.

be most clever and amusing.
The committee of the Fall Festival
chosen to make a historical display
will arrange an exhibit in the lecture
room of the MorrissonReeves library
They are planning an exhibit of old
household utensils, and of things used
in pioneer days. of all that clustered
about the old fire place, the old crane
and andirons, the spinning wheels and
the loom.
1t promises to be interesting to the
old people who saw such things in
their childhood days, and instructive
to the children who know Of nothing
in the kitchen but gas ranges.
This brings to mind the subject of
pageants. The use OF pageantry to
teach history is becoming very wide
spread.
The settlement of this county may
not be very thrilling historically, but
the story of Holman and La Rue is
interesting and a very picturesque pa
geant could be planned of wood chop
pers, trappers, millers and women in
pioneer dress with few Indians
thrown into the background.
A collection of samplers and of wo-
ven coverlids is desired for the exhibit
at the library. A telephone message
to the librarian, telephone 2723 about
such articles that may be obtained for
display will be appreciated.
