There have been parties of note in

Of more joyous camaraderie than this
years Thanksgiving dance which so
brightly sealed the close of the gray

An added impetus and lit was given
to the dancing by the inspiriting swing
or the Hunt orchestra, which has 50
frequently in times past been a much
desired and contributing factor in the

A number Of stunning gowns were
in eolorful evidence, all the more re-

has been good form only even at the

prophecy Came True

mon Bolivar, when he was a child Of
seven, had for playmate in Spain,
a boy Of about his own age named Fer
dinand, the future Spanish King. One
day, while engaged in a game of bat
tledore and shuttIecock, a stroke by
young Bolivar knocked the cap from
Ferdinand's head. Whereupon an old
nurse, who witnessed the occurrence,
and who was deemed a soothsayer, de-
clared that some day Bolivar would
knock the crown from the kings head.
Which feat he certainly did accomplish,
so far as South America was con.

MULCH AS SOIL PROTECTION
Chief Value Is in Keeping Surface

The mulch is of value chiefly in
protecting the surface soil, keeping it
from packing under the weight of
SHOWS or heavy packing rains. The
mulch also prevents heaying as a re-

tlity and sometimes retards budding

Community Efforts.

Cooperative efforts to destroy rats
have taken various forms in different
localities. In cities, municipal en-
ployees have occasionally been set ut
work hunting rats from their retreats,
with at least temporary benefit to
the community. Thus, in 1904, ut
Foll7oStonc, England a town of about
25O0O Inhabitants, the corporation
employees, helped 10y dogs, in three
days killed 1915 rats.
Side hunts in which rats are the
only animals that count in the con
test have sometimes been organized
and successfully carried out. At New
Burlington, O., rat hunt took place
some years ago in which each of the
two sides killed over 5000 rats, the
beaten party serving a banquet to
the winners.
There is danger that organized rat
h,utS VIII be followed by long in
tervals Of Indifference and inaction.
This may be prevented by Offering
prizes covering a definite period OF
effort Such prizes accomplish more
Than municipal bounties, because they
secure Il friendly rivalry which slim
