Tells Interesting Stories.
A little child pushed its way
through the crowds with toy rife in
its hand. Tommy stopped down and
put the rifle at a carry and kissed the
child. shuddered at the coal-black
face, but the mother looked pleased,
and the child smiled its delight at the
kind soldier.
He told me some interesting stories
from the front, where the Germans
put on British and French uniforms
and walk into the allies lines. They
came to village one day. and at dawn
when our men were retiring they
opened on them with machine guns
hidden in houses and sheds.

He was really eloquent when he
talked of the bravery Of the soldiers.

Laughter In Supreme Court.


The Supreme court of the United
States is absolutely and indisputably
supreme when 1t comes to solemnity,
dreariness and gloom. People do not
laugh once q year In that funereal-
looking chamber. All you have to do
is to set foot inside of 1t in order to
understand that the dispensing Of JUS
tice is heavy, ponderous, and seri-
Gus affair.
Not long ago. however, Mr.. Justice
Lurton made the lawyers, the auditors
and the other Justices laugh right out
loud
A lawyer from the South was argu-
ing a case concerning two secret fra
ternal lodges.
May the court please" said the
lawyer heatedly. "the opposing lodge
not only got hold of our ritual and
used it. but also got our insignia and
regalia."

Lurton. did they also get your goat?"
