On the morning of July 3 the sun

days in time for the Fourth. This
will put dogs in little different re-
lation to independence than they have
been at various times when the dog
days began after the Fourth. They
will refuse to let anyone tie packs of
firecrackers on their tails, and assert
their independence in other little
things having to do with the pride

in the main will retain their reason

blamed them with the intense heat of
midsummer, and took an altogether
profane view of the dog. The result
was one of those. terrible theological
feuds which have from time to time
arrested the development of the world,
and it only ended when Egypt was
conquered and the dog was moved
from the temple to the dog house.
The celebrated British controversy
over the beginning of the dog days
was almost as sanguinary. In the
time of Elizabeth they were made to
to begin on the 9th of July and end
on the 9Th of September. Subse
quently they were made to begin on
the 10Th of July and end on the 18th
of August. A violent protest against
this change set in during the protect
crate of Cromwell. 1t was at this
time that the term dog-fall originated.
The people who wanted the beginning
of the dog days set back got in the
habit of falling before the thorough
breds of Cromwell and other dignit-
aries at the races and getting killed
for the cause. The Staurts, who
promised to set the dogs days back to
date from July 3 to Aug. II, were
finally restored to the throne on this
issue.

Had everyone done something on that
day to improve the road passing his
farm, an infinite amount of good
would have been accomplished.
The Cyrus Auto Club has been very
active in the interests of good roads
and the members are deserving of the
highest praise. Their officers have
proven themselves to be the right men
IN the right places. The OBJ ject les
sons which the club has given to the
public should be of far reaching i'm
portance. and if everyone will enter
into the same spirit in regard to road
improvement it will only be short
time when you will have roads that

Perfume of clover newly mown,
And the cautious tramp will flee

And claim the cooler for his own,
The football player stacking wheat,

The fire department going by
The sun will concentrate its fire
Upon the swimmers blistered

The kingbird, sitting On the wire,
Will feel its toes begin to crack.
The willy lobby will escape
Among the thick Potomac trees.
And the summer girl will play her

dence will return, and young enthusi

they will furnish fire, sEyrockets, caps

JULY.

I know place where cold, blue
skies
Await the lucky conner.
And earth is like to Paradise
A few months in the summer.
The view is such as never lacked
For wondering beholders.
And all our dreams become a fact
In the railroad folders.
Just such place, it would appear
As everyone is seeking
About this season OF the year
When the popuIace is reeking.
The sweet cool waters ever play
Among the messy boulders,
And life is one long roudelay-
In the railroad folders.
In this blest place awaits US rest
Beyond the fondest fancy,
And all things thither are possessed
Of Natures necromancy.
The limpid pool produces fish
Enough to stoop ones shoulders,
And all things else are as we wish
In the railroad folders.
July, which was the Quirtilis or
fifth month of the old Roman calen-
dar. got its name as result of the
great lobby investigation in the Ro-
man Senate. Caesar, who was trying
to pass some legislation to which his
party was pledged, exposed the lobby
with characteristic fearIessness and
demanded an Investigation.
Soon after the investigation began
he was personally attacked by the
lobby, which was armed with knives,
under the Pillar of Pompey. First

sentatives of the protected interests,

sugar. closed in on Caesar and cut him
up into fish bait. Mark Antony. who
made the funeral grafton. proposed
that Caesars birth month, which was
Quintilis, be named for him. He
pointed out that while a monument or
some other conventional memorial
might do for man who had divided
Gaul into three parts, it could scarce
ly express the empires gratitude to a
man who had forever ruined the Ro-
man lobby. This impressed every
body favorably. The initiative was
invoked and the month of Quintilis
gave way to the new month of July.
