Music Hath Charms to Soothc the
Savage Breast

OF the school year there was de-
cided influx OF new faces among the
teaching corps. One, particularly at
tractive. was numbered among these. |
Originally OF n domestic turn Of
mind. her pedagogical duties were |
assumed with view of broadening |
her experience. Her black hair and |
eyes set OFF petite personality that |
is at once both viyacious and appeal |
ing and her fame spread abroad thru |
the Valley as beftted
Comes now the erstwhile hero and |
present william. Up until the time
Of the advent he had been assisting |
father in the various duties about the |
farm. AS time wore on and the dut-
les became more arduous, young |
Lochinvar hied him hence in quest |
OF amusement. Get this! Mother is |
away;-father is busy digging pota-
toes and chasing down promises from |
the gang of cut-throat relatives of |
Ananias who collectively represent |
the interests CD of the Railroad |
Companies. With this fair oppor-
tunity is it any wonder that our
Lochinvar should pay assiduous
court to the fair one of fame?
Time passes and from outward ap-
pearances. the court was accepted |
and approved and gave indications
that the old familiar ending of all |
fairy tales, And they lived happily |
ever afterwards" would be heard |
again.
little fly buzzing busily about |
dropped into the ointment, and dis
cord has succeeded calm While at
tending Church with Number One |
the fair voice of the fair leader of |
the choir smote upon young Loch-
invar's ears. A vague sense of un-
rest seized him and he wondered |
whether life without music could |
ever reach its full fulfilment. Mem
ory carried him back to the child
hood years when he had practiced |
upon his fiddle to the direct discom-
fort of neighbors and passing pedes-
trians. Inquiry developed the fact |
that the voice from the choir would |
upon proper provocation instruct the |
budding idea to fiddle. Convinced |
that the road to happiness must be |
accompanied by sweet sounds and |
longing through every fibre of his be-
ing for this new instruction. he went
home to ponder upon ways and |
means
Time again passes, through the
Won Bethmunn-Hollwegc mach
nations OF Lochinvar the second
friendship has ripened into being.
Forgotten are the obligations of yes
terday and the first friendship dis
carded through the allurement of
music, we cannot be blamed for Won
oering what next and have come to
believe that William Shakespeare
knew whereof he spoke when he said
"Muic hath charms to soothe the
savage breast"
Note:-Mrs. James Harper is ex-
pected home in the near future.
Rumor hath II that Lester H.,
more familiarly known as Buick Six
Leck". has again fallen for the
charms of new lady Heretofore
he has always been markedly atten-
tive to certain young lady but it |
seems that out of sight is out of |
mind. No sooner is the one ont of |
the way than he must needs acquire |
new. Following out the plan of his |
usual campaign he has made the |
nights hideous for residents of the
west End with the barkings of a |
cold Buick disturbed from a nights
rest. Complaints have been filed by
citizens of Monte Vista who claim
they go to beG to sleep and that they |
could do so were 1t not for the dis
tnrbance kicked up by Leck's acces-
sorry at the hour OF leaving. We
would suggest that Leck at least |
calm the brute with a little warm |
water for this has been known to
help in starting very cold motors. |
Failing in this why cheat the garage |
men out of an honest penny when |
the nights are cold and their hospi-
table doors await the reception of all |
Owl cars?
