DIDJA EVER SEE
A GLOW-WORM? l DID

How many OF you youngsters
have ever seen q glow worm? Well,
I'm a grown up person and I never
saw one until the other night. A
grown man found one in our back
yard and he brought it to me and
please don't tell anyone but
thought it was lighting bug. You
see never had seen glow worm.
Later l hunted and hunted for one
but l could not find even a tiny
one. Suppose you children who
do not get tired as soon as
grown ups hunt for some and let me
know just how many you find.

How the Great Swiss
Cheese Was Destroyed

One time there was big. round
ball OF cheese big as a dining room.
There was Q fair going on. While
the fair was going on the man who
owned the cheese said to himself,
Il believe ! will send that cheese
to the poor people in Paris" When
the fair was over the man went to
get the cheese. Guess what had
happened. Some rats had eaten Its
inside. They put it in a wagon
drawn by eighteen horses and all
at once 1t fell and burst like bal
loon and so this is how the great
Swiss cheese was destroyed.-May-

WHY. THE BOY CITY Il
HAS GONE UNDER

Many of the boys of this city
have been wondering why the Boy
City does not meet any more. The
most simple way and the shortest
explanation that can be given on
this score is NON SUPPORT. Most
boys Of Richmond liked to boast Of
their Richmond as being an up
.to-date city, and really Richmond
as small city has carried many
thing through that larger cities
have failed in doing.
Almost two years ago some OF
Richmond's senior promoters got
the idea of teaching the kids" of
this city just how to run genuine
municipality. Mr.. Melpolder, TAX
Ing the lead, suggested that boys
city be started. OF course it is to
be understood that Mr. Melpolder
only started the thing, with the help
of several other men. '
Benjamin Harris was appointed
to act as Boy City's first mayor.
Harris did the best that could be
expected with the green material
, that was furnished him.
So went the first administration
The next thing that came up was
the election-sOmething that took
up lots oStime of a few of the work
ers. Then came this first election,
resulting in Joseph Swearinger, the
next mayor.
Then came a rush of office seek
ers. After that was a general lull,
with nothing doing at any of the
meetings, nothing doing but maybe
a councilman would sneeze and
cause big commotion, but nothing
ever came out of this. Every single
thing seemed to die.
Nobody came to the meetings so
our mayor got discouraged, and quit,
calling everything off, 1t wasn't
Swearinger's fault because he did
everything boy could do to try to
keep the thing going.
Two popular explanations were
"The men wouldn't help financial
ly" and "the boys wouldn't turn out
to the meetings" Yes, 1t was all
80, 10 money anu no support ana
NO BUSINESS.
One Of the greatest troubles were
that the Councilman-atlarge didn't
prove his efficiency by taking the
bill to the city council.
Why can't Richm0nd's Boy City
City get together once more and
make things go. When the mayor
puts out proclamation why don't
we all turn out and be present and
why don't we pay dues if necessary
to keep this thing going. That's
just suggestion to get you think
ing and help our boy mayor give
Richmond . real Junior city. It will
be needed when We really learn
what this war will mean.--Henry
McFarlone.

Sells Garden Produce
and Joins Red Cross

Richard Bramcamp has set the
pace for Richmond boys by taking
dollar of the money which he has
earned by selling his garden pro-
duce and was saving up to buy q
pony. to pay for membership in
the Red Cross. This is the first
time 1t Is known that this has been
done by any of the boys, but it
shows that the boys are loyal
Americans and that they are be-
ginning to do their bit" for our
country.

THE LITTLE CHILDREN

Two little children were going
out In the woods to play. The chill
dren's names were Glenn and The
olinda. While they we're out in the
woods they looked up In the tree.
Guess what they saw. They saw a
squirrel up in the tree. Theolinda
said, Il believe l will 60 into the
house and get the squirrel some
nuts" "All right" said Glenn, II
will wait" So Theolinda came back
with a handful of nuts for the
squirrel. The squirrel ate the
nuts all up. The children's
mother called them for supper.
This is all for this time.--Mayward

THE OAK AND THE REED

Long ago by the banks OF river
grew an oak tree. 1t was strong
and tall. Its roots sank deep into
the ground and its great branches
stretched far out in the sunlight.
No matter how fiercely the wind
blew or how heavily the rain fell,
the tree never bent his head. At
the foot of the oak, there grew o
reed that bent it's head at every
little breeze that blew. Whenever
the oak looked down upon the reed
tossed about by the wind, 1t held
itself sitter than before. One
night, however, a storm swept over
the land The reed bent low, but
the oak stood erect against the
storm When morning came. its
roots were torn from the ground,
while the reed unframed swayed
on its slender stem In the morning
breeze.-Florencs Dingley, Finley

STATE FAIRS VOLUNTEER
 AS FOOD TRAINING CAMPS

Washington, D. C., July 26.-Rep- resentatives of the American Associa- tion of Fairs and Propositions, in con- vention at Washington have rendered to the government through the secre- tary of agriculture the services and appliances of the state fairs as food training camps to promote food pro- duction, food conservation, effective marketing, live stock production, and more efficient agriculture. A. L. Sponsler, Hutchinson, Kansas, as president of the association, at a meeting at the Department of Agri- culture, pointed out that these fairs annually have an attendance of ff- teen to twenty million people, and stated that the association was ready to set aside as many of the fair ac- tivities as possible to bring the gov ernment's programs of food conser- vation and production to the attention of this audience. and to demonstrate methods of cooperating effectively in national measures.
 Representatives of the department, with the approval of hte secretary of agriculture, pointed out to the asso- citation several important directions in which the fairs can be made more di- rectly to serve the nation in the pres ent emergency. k

KEEP FIT AND FEEL FINE

Foley Cathartic Tablets are wholesome physic that thoroughly cleanse the bowels, sweeten the stom- ach and arouse the liver. For indi- gestion, biliousness, bad breath, bloat- ing, gas, or constipation, no remedy is more highly recommended. Sluggish bowels are the direct cause of many ills and the indirect cause of many more. Undigested food poisons the whole system. Don't be careless. See that your bowels are regular. Keep fit. Then you will feel fine.

PRACTICALLY ALL
 STORAGES REPORT

Washington. D. C., July 26.-Prac- tically every storage company in the
 United States is now cooperating with the government in reporting the cold storage holdings of food products, ac- cording to a statement just made by the Bureau of Markets, United States Department of Agriculture. These
 reports include meat, poultry, eggs, butter, cheese and apples and are issued monthly by that bureau.
 When the work first started in 1914 the bureau says, only few firms re- ported in response to the requests for information; and there never has been any legislation which made the submitting of these reports compul- sorry. Gradually, one firm after an other volunteered it's reports, until
 now the field is almost completely cov- cred. The importance of the state ments Of storage holdings never has been so great, in the opinion of the department, as it is today in connec-
 tion with the world food crisis.
 Through the cooperation of the
 press, the public is kept informed of the facts, and the officers of food ad- ministration, for example, are able to make specific recommendation on the basis of the reports. No monthly cold storage statement issued by the department gives less than 9S per cent of the entire holdings and most of them are fully complete. The mar gin of ? per cent or less is partially due to delay in reportinf, because of unusual conditions at a warehouse at the time the reports are due on the first of each month. Even then a telegraphic request from the depart ment usually brings a wired answer which fills out the report.
 On the present meat situation, for example, the report shows that there is storage response to the prospec- tive demands for war emergencies, and that more than hundred million pounds of frozen beef are in storage, or more than half again as much as was on hand last year at the same time. Moreover, during the month of June this year the storages kept on increasing their stocks and added nearly five per cent to what they al- ready had on hand; whereas in 1916 the storages which reported showed greatly reduced supplies, one fourth or twenty-five per cent de- crease being noted during June year ago.

Fred T. Golfer, the Apache

Fred 7. Golfer. the Apache
county statesman, is sending out
circular letters to his friends over
the state advising them that,
like Barcus, ''he is willin" to
make the race as the democratic
candidate for governor next
year. Getting in thus early he
probably hopes to forestall any
other democratic aspirant from
shying his castor into the ring;
but with all his astuteness as a
politician Golfer is not a very
close student of the general
characteristics of a democratic
of1ice-seeker, if he harbors any
such thought. His early an
nouncement will only have the
effect of stirring up the other
boys to greater activity, and the
jolts the Golfer boom will get

Berne. Feb. 14.-When Germany be-
gan her submarine warfare and the
rupture with the United States oc-
Cured, according to a returning Amer
lean correspondent, there was no
market movement on the Berlin Bocrse.
Trading at no time assumed panicSy
character. Though some stocks reg
is.ered large losses, the general MAJ
ket was dull.
The general financial and political
temper of the country was confident at
the time of the correspondents dc
parture from Berlin with Ambas sador
Gerard. The day before he LETT war
loans could be sold shade above 10:
II is true that one frequently heard
pessimistic expressions about tue
financial future and the great STRAIN
which the accommodating interest pay
ments will make upon the economic
strength after the war, but sucn ex-
nressions have hardly influenced the
Boerse. 4 considerable number o. op-
orators continue disposed to speculate
for the rise upon the expectation thet
the submarine campaign will force the
war TO an early conclusion favorable
TO Germany. ,L
The sixth war loan, due in March
has not vet been announced. 1t Is
hardly expected that past records can
be repeated this time, inasmuch az the
canacitv of the people TO save has been
diminished too greatly by the increased
cost of living. The impression in Der
lin is that the total of subscriptions
will show a considerably smaller re-
suit than the fifth loan.
