 The look which the disheVeled ad( in the red ball gown cast upon URGle Sans representative probably burned a hole in his aura which will never heal up.
 Remove the gag," the reyen1s ofs- cer commanded.
 "Wait." Vida requested; "wait until after l have identified her"
 That was a wonderful inspiration on Yida's part As the two women had never set eyes on each other before, Mrs. Green might not address Vida as her own offspring as soon as tho power of speech was restored to her. If you say she Is your mother t &s all right" said Yida's new conquest gallantly. You may remove the hand kerchief yourself If you like, tErss your mother will forgive us foR our blunder.

Forecasts Good Future For Swimming and Track

and our boys are loud in their praises
of the splendid reception accorded
them abroad. Large crowds attended
the games in spite of the frosty
weather and the athletes abroad rea:-
ize the advantages of seeing our stars
in competition.
Swimming is in its infancy in this
country, and this accounts for the
number of records broken during the
past year. Judging from the demand
from all parts of the country for the
privilege of holding championships
for men and women. an even greater
onslaught on the records will take
place. These championships will be
distributed so that all sections of the
country will be benefited,
The territory covered by the distant
associations Is too large, and the num-
Der of our. districts should be in
creased ALI cities having popula-
ton of about 5000 people ought to
be made centers of athletic activity.
n this plan Is carried out there would
be district associations with head
quarters in Cleveland. Pittsburg. De-
troit, Buffalo, Milwaukee, Cincinnati
and the twin cities Minneapolis and

headquarters.

Major j. Fulmer Bright, of the

that his command will leave their

The Grays form the second detach-

which will leave the border. There
are three battalions in the regiment
and each battalion will travel in a
separate special train.

of the committee were informed that
the railroads usually placed the cars
used in the Jim Crow excursions at
