MONROE
(By Arthur W. French. j


 You may not have noticed-and then you may have-that sometimes. the fog creates optical illusions and often nagnifies things. For instance a. Monroe lady visitor was walking along the highway below the center, just above Frank Beardsley's home. in the early foggy morning. when she espied what she thought was a small bear sitting down in the middle of the road and looking as if he had just discovered a honey bee tree. She wasn't the least bit afEafd, cShe said, 7 but began to wonder how she was going to get by without climbing a stone wall and taking to. the woods. also realizing that 1t would be futile. to cry out "shoo. or "scat" to said bear. So she calmly bent down and picked up 9 stone, as if to throw it. Then the bear stood up and took no tice. With a proud snfen and a dis dainful look, the animal ambled across the ditch, scaled the stone wall and took Nto the woods himself, aWay the lady got by Honest now. Tee heez 1t was no bear at aIl.s 'In- vestigation showed that the bear" enlarged by the fog maybe, was none other than MT. Beardsley's large brown shepherd dog. which is to tee bee some more.
 The building committee of liar nony grange are not doing much through dog days, in wrestling with the proposition of finding a suitable site for building their proposed new home But they have faith in the old aphorism. "all things come to .him who waits.'' So they are wait ing. Meanwhile, the building fund keeps on growing, boosted by proceeds of varied entertainments given from time to time, and they are to be con tinued right away. It is hoped that in the near future a building site may be secured.
 There isn't yet the least bit of simmer to the Monroe political pot and maybe the fire hasn't even been started At the porch parties of the Stove Tub and similar evening mo- bilizations of drop-fns, about the only queries and discussions thereupon, are viz: Got yer hay in ?. and what do you think of the war?'' This starts a talk fast and politics are lost in the shuffle. Meanwhile, the slates are being wiped off, in readiness to be put on their jobs. if everybody doesn't get overcome with the war bug.
 All Monroe detectives and sleuths are hot-footed after nniscreant with a big M. Hasn't he shocked folks He has. Somewhere in town-never 1 mind where-a residence has been the abiding place of a dozen healthy, hearty and happy summer girls from the city. And gaiety and fun have had the call. Moreover, about 90 per cent. of aforesaid girlies were good l lockers. Which is some. We'll aforesaid niscreant hand Iettered a big cardboard sign and hung it on the front door of the above house, so that even people going by in honk things could read as follows: Don't shoo the chickens Chasing chickens, forbid den.'' Don't wake the chicks" 'tNo l hens allowed on the premises"
