$4,000 to Discover America

The cost of the discovery of
America has been figured out by
a French arithmetician. When
travelling in Spain he found
some old account books, showing
that Columbus fleet of three
ships cost, approximately. $314O.
For the officers stores $400 suf-
feed.
The men were paid a dollar
and a half a day, but. had to find
their own food and drink. This
makes a total of about $4,000. to
which there must be added about
$4,000 for guns and munitions of
war.
Altogether, therefore. the cost
of discovering America was $8,-
600. which seems cheap enough.

MRS. JAMES
SCORSE HOSTESS

The Knockers Club met at the
home of Mrs. James Scorse,
where they were charmingly en-
tertained. Mrs. Scorse is the
fortunate possessor of two of the
finest porches in Holbrook, and
the ladies certainly appreciated
their manifold charms.
The two main objects of the
club being the "conversazione"
or the gentle gift of CAB, and
the "eats" it might better be
called the Feed Club" as one of
the members suggested.
The chief business of the eve
ming was transacted at the table,
which Mrs. Scorse had laid out
for US on her side porch. Here
the lights from the lamps was
supplemented by that of the
moon, as he peeked thru the
screen and smacked his lips en-
viouslv as the good things disap-
peared.
The table was beautifully and
appropriately decorated, the col
or scheme being red and black.
In the center of the table stood
large black anvil. to which a
shiny new hammer was fastened
with a large red satin bow. From
beneath the anvil narrow red
ribbons stretched to each place
where they were fastened to the
place cards and ended in tiny iron
hammers. Shouts of glee greet
ed these articles and everyone
commenced Immediately to knock
The hostess had been before us,
however. aswe discovered upon ex
amining our place cards on which
she had written original rhymes

AS for the lunch it is sufficient
to say that we threw caution to
the winds and all over ate.
After lunch Mrs. Scorse lifted

and disclosed the other ends of

ing their wiggly, waggly tails
