 "Oh, Aunt Sarahr' Mrs. Sehofeld lifted a protesting hand.
 "Nonsense"' said Mrs. Grim.
 But on his birthday!'
 That's the time to say it. Penrod, aren't you the worst boy in town?"
 Penrod, gazing fondly upon his knife and eating cookies rapidly, answered as a matter of course and absently. "Yes'm."

 No, nor Mrs. Schofield cried invol- untarily.
 Yes, they are" returned Aunt Sarah. "Only they're not quite so aw ful, because they haven't learned to cover themselves all over with little pretences. When Penrod grows up he'll be just the same as he is now. except that whenever he does what he wants to do he'll tell himself and oth CT people a little story about it to make his reason for doing it seem nice and pretty and noble"
 No. I won't.' said PenrOd suddenly.
 There's one cookie left" observed Aunt Sarah. Are you going to eat it?"
 Well" said her great nephew thoughtfully, "I guess I better"
 Why" asked the old lady. "Why do you guess you'd 'better|"
 "Well." said PenrOd, with a full mouth, it might get all dried up if nobody took it and get thrown out and wasted
 You're beginning finely" Mrs. Grim remarked. "A year ago you'd have taken the cookie without the same sense of thrift"
 "AIa'am?"
 Nothing. I see that you're twelve years old. that's all. There are more cookies. Penrod" She went away. re- turning with a fresh supply and the observation: Of course you'll be sick kSLOl1 IIG d6lg oN1As Loh hIl-llb dS well get q good start"

The world seems to be getting on.' She gaZed whimsically upon her great nephew and added. "Of course whc2 you watch a boy and think about him it doesn't seem to be getting on very fast"
 Penrod moved uneasily in his chair. He was conscious thtt he was her top ic. but unable to mate out whether or not her observations were compli- mentary. He inclined to think they were not. Mrs. Grim settled the ques- ton for him.

 Bulgaria and Turkey on Aug. II reached m agreement insuring the neu- trality of Bulgaria in case the Balkan countries are drawn into the European war, according to authoritative adyices received fin Rome. On that date Bull garia formally pledged her neutrality by signing the agreement.
 As result of the almost absolute certainty that the course of Bulgaria has been determined for some time negotiations in Sofia are now watched with less interest in Rome than is shown in the news from the Rouman- ian and Greek capitals regarding the possible entrance of these countries into the war.

CEDAR RIDGE

Friends and relatives gathered at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. +. A. Zlek
Christmas and enjoyed an all-round
good time. A bountiful dinner with
goodies indescribable was served the
guests early In the evening. Later mu-
sic, dancing and games entertained un-
til a late hour in the evening when the
guests departed wishing their hosts
many days of happiness and prosper
ity in the new year
Mr.. and Mrs. Ernest Van Week we're
hosts New Years eve to a number OF
friends and neighbors. An excellent
dinner was served and a pleasant ev-
ening enjoyed by all. Music, dancing
and a general good time featured the
evening which went too quickly for
all present.
Five years ago two men, +. A. Ziek
and Tony Raspire. moved to this sec
ton. They were the first settlers at
Cedar Ridge. They lived ON the ridge
two years without neighbors or roads
and for several years theirs was the
only titled soil within several miles
radius. People wondered why they
had moved to such a barron, desolate
section, but today the wonder is that
there were no more settlers with them.
Two years ago the land about the
Ridge was thrown open for homestead
ing and today between forty and fifty
farms are prospecting In the immediate
n~eighborhod around Mr.. Ziek and Mr..
Raspire.
Where there was once a dead sea of
sage brush there are now great wheat
fields and a florishing school with nine
pupils. This number will be doubled
next year II the present growth con-
tinues. Such has been the change in
this section in a few short years. a
There will be a dance at the Rich
Valley school, district 10, two miles
south of Coolidge, Friday night, Janu-
airy Sth. Music will be furnished by
Farley Morris, Ernest Van Week and
#. A. Ziek. The ladies will bring
lunches. All are welcome.
