PEOPLE
 ! DISLIKE PLAN

A committee. of Tempe residents waited upon the board Of supervisors yesterday and protested against the division recently made of the road dis tricts.
 County Engineer Harold Bargman last week combined several of the dis tricts believing that he could secure more efficient work rom man em- ployed by the month, than from one who had but a.few days werk out of the week to occupy his attention. By combining the districts there was suf- ficient work to keep one person busy every day in the month and bettei service will result. according to tho engineer.
 That it is merely a matter of per sonal prejudice on the part of the Tenn pc residents was the opinion of the county, the county informed the com mittee that the plan in vogue would be given a fair try-out at least.

 And the words of it are gay: Feet the mietletoe and holly;
 I have started on the way Ic~n hear the hoof- beats thudding,
 As the snow is flung behind, While the laden sleigh is scudding With the ssTiftness of the wind, And the echoes now are f1inging
 Broken murmurs of the song That old Santa Claus is singing
 While the reindeer speed along: ~Lfttfe fellow, little fellow.
 While -you sit and dream of me, And inc marvel of the morning
 That shall show the wondrous tree. For your trust in all the fancies
 Of the shadow and the g1eam, am starting on my journey

The Little Deer Mouse.

Dear Uncle Jed: I am going to tell you about Uncle Georges little deer mouse. He caught it in the potato field and brought it home. He made a cage for it out of a wooden box and q piece of wire screen in which he brought the mouse home. He carried it in his pocket and the mouse never for got it. because once the mouse crawl ed into his pocket. z When Uncle George took it out of it's cage it was a brownish grey col or, had eyes like beads and a very long tail. But it's tale is short. for the didn't live long. He slept nearly all day in his bed of patches till one day he fell asleep and never awakened.
 He used to look so cunning washing up like cat. He would stretch like a cat, too.
 Uncle George fed it pumpkin seeds, corn and milk. It was also fond of watermelon.
 This ends the tale of the little deer rnouse-a dear little mouse.
 This is my first letter to you so 1 will say good bye.

human beings wink but they cannot tell whether it is to rest the eye or to wipe it with the lid and keep 1t clean; doubtless it has a great deal to do with keeping it moist.
 Some folks wink ten times and then the eye rests a little; and others rest their eyelids oftener. The lid of the eye comes down. rests and rises again in four tenths Of a second. so that the famous sixty winlks of sleep doesn't amount to more than ten shakes of a lambs tail.
 It seems strange that there is no uniformity about winking. When some thing attracts our attention we wink less often, and when we are surprised we look so long without winaing that we are said to stare.
 It seems strange our winldng does not interfere with our sight; but the picture fades from the lense of the eye so slowly that it is renewed before it can fade away.
 We may wink to cleanse as we'll as lubricate the eyeban, or this may be Natures way to protect the eye from the intense glare of the light.
 The eyes are wonderful organs and should be well taken care of.

 The people had to elect a new gov ernor and they chose a young man, William Bradford, because Governor Carver had died.
 There were only a few Red Men around SO the people enjoyed some peace, but the Indians that were there were friendly, among whom to. who could speak English.
 The Pilgrims prospered through the summer, but one day a bundle of ar rows tied around with a rattlesnalse's s skin, a sign of war, was sent by a tride of Narragansett Indians to the people to frighten them. The captain of the people was no coward so he stuffed the. skin full of powder and sent it back. The. Narragansett knew what this meant so they let the peo- pie alone in the times to come.
 After a plentiful harvest the Pill grims invited their Indian friends to a feast on the last Thursday in Novem- Der.
 They certainly had a good time. To eat they had wild turkey and venison, bread. pies, cake, pumpkins, grapes, and plums.
 After dinner the Indians brought out a bushel bag of popped corn for the children. What time they had!
