"Oh. yes. ] know dear. we should

Louise already thought she had been

Nora now served the coffee in tia

TO Warren. while she looked after

and Nora had pressed II TO look like

Louise had diued with them many
times and Warren had never taken
her home in a taxi Often he only
put her on the car at the corner And

Helen felt that his ordering Of q CAP
could only be to annoy her-a sort OF
disoiplintng reprobation for an econ

him.

BUTTERFLIES
By CONSTANCE CLARKE

r TT E girl that st aged away

Little girl that romped away
Hours Of golden light,
Out across the daisy fields
In the drowsy noon,
Chasing butterflies all day,
Bedtime comes too soon.

Tired and weary little girl
In q snowy nest,
with a dol IN either arm
Clasped against her breast;
Drowsy Ids that hutter down,
Closing out the light.
Tired Of chasing butterflies
Dolls are friends at night
Little girl that wandered out,
Secrets to unclose,
Started with the sun adream
On a bed Of rose:
Out across the daisy fields,
Starred with youthful dreams,
Chasing butterflies all day
While the sunlight streams
80 80 20.
Little feet that wandered far,
Weary with the strife,
Tired Of chasing butterflies
On the hills Of life,
Wandered home again, too late,
Seeking childish joys,
Little hands that seeking found
Only broken toys.

A Card From The BaiIff.
Editor of The Banner:

Editor of The Banner:
In connection with the complaints
published in your paper recently
about drivers speeding on certain
streets of Cambridge, I wish to
state that the police officials will
gladly cooperate with the citizens
in the matter of breaking up speed
ing and reckless driving. OF course,
as everyone knows, it is impossible
for the police force to be in. all
places at one time, but if persons
witnessing such violations OF the
law will take the names of the
violators and give them to the po-
lice, or, if they will notify the Off
GERS, we will try and pay especial
attention to these sections, so as
to catch the offenders.
The following facts in connec-
ton with a recent case of arrest
for speeding may be of interest to
the public, and I think should be
known: On Thursday, Sept. 18th,
arrested Charles Chase, colored,
the chauffeur for Mr.. G. H. Bas-
shor, upon the complaint of Dr.
John Mace, for fast driving within
the town limits; in fact, right out
on Locust street.
The accused was brought before
Police Justice Fielder Jones, and
DR.. John Mace and Mr.. Sidney Rio
ords, both gentlemen of high stand
ing, stated, under oath, that the
car was being driven at a speed of
from thirty to thirty-five miles an
hour. DR.. Mace was Questioned by
Justice Jones as to whether he had
knowledge of automobile speed and
stated that he had been driving a
car for several years, and beiieved
himself competent to Judge the
speed of a car. Chase, the driver,
went on the stand and swore that
he was driving at speed sof
twelve miles an hour, and Justice
Jones, despite the testimony ot DR..
Mace and Mr.. Records, found him
not guilty.
I state these facts in order that
the public may know that 1t is
necessary for us to be able to
strongly substantiate any such
charges filed
Respectfully yours,
Chas. G.. Pritchett.
