dusty that the mother had grave sus-
PIGEONS concerning his having been at
Sunday school at all. He explained
his disarray by the fact that he had
stopped at a neighbor's house to see
some young puppies and had climbed
into a stable in order to be able to find
them.

topical songs is already taking the Sc
rious attention of several local experts

that will withstand the good natured
Jibes that are on their way.
