LITTLE boy YOUNGEST
ORGANISE IN KANSAS
Question What Everett win Do
When the Baseball Season
Opens.

CENTRALIA, Kan. April =
Centralia people declare the town
has the youngest church organist in
the state and probably the only boy
organist. Edward Everett Is only
10 years old, and when in his knee
pant suit he walks up into the choir
gallery on Sunday mornings. strar,g-
ers might think he was going to
pump the church organ or maybe
sing in a children's chorus, but would
never suspect he was the church or
ganist for real grown-up choir In
Guiding music supervisors and the
teachers.
And when he gets on the bench at
the organ you cannot see even the
top Of his head, SO the music gives
one the impression OF coming from
the organ without any assistance.
When the services are over and Ed
ward walks out strangers are aston
ished. He shirks none Of the regu-
lar program Of the services, but plays
yoluntaries and anthems as we'll as
the hymns, and chooses difficult, high
class music.
It is hard to keep girl organist
In small town. In. the last few
months one young lady has gone
away to college. another went to the
city and q third married and went
to another town to live. Edward Is
safe from the marrying game and
from college or the city to work for
some years. so the possibility OF los
ing the organist from these causes
is removed. How 1t will be when
the baseball season opens up and Ed
ward prefers practice on the dia-
mond rather than choir practice re-
mains to be seen, TOR Edward Is no
sissy boy. He's q real live boy, add
could hardly sit still during church
Service until his energies were har-
messed by putting him up at the or
gan.

 Can you remember when you were ;a little tyke and played "London bridge is falling down during recess or at children's parties when the girls were not too much dressed Up? The game always ended with a vigorous pull of the opposing sides, with the result that usually both forces went down in the Aust. Did you know that that child ish game was one of the genuine an tiQues and that it could trace it's origin to real historic fact! The first bridge over the Thames. at the he3dwatcrs of navigation. about half a inile above the Tower, was so old that the story of its Iconstruction is lost in a maze of myths. Its fall. however, is a matter of record. |lt happened on the 1Cth of November. 1919. and it was the result of the most dev vastae;ng storm and the most terrific and sudden flood that London had ever seen.
 Tha, first bridge was entirely of , wood It was not rebuilt for almost il century! and the sstasfid bridge con sisted of stone arches. restiI: on deep piljng. It was forty feet wide and al most thousand feet long. Houses were built along the bridge also rest ing on pi]ing. until the bridge looked like q city street.
