and tell him he must not bulge If he

BOY BLUE
sy ELIZABETH eaovEsrEIN.

\ When Jerry Stanton was very lit
4 tie fellow he had been called Little
/ Boy Blue" by his fond parents. Row
the term as applied to him had a big
ger and broader meaning, for the only
son of the proud Mr.. Stanton was a
sailor boy In blue.
Indeed, Jerry was lad to be proud
OF, one who would be able to do his
bit for Uncle Sam. But he had one
grievous fault which threatened to be
his downfall, Jerry was concelted,
very, very concelted. Why, 1t did not
seem to surprise him ln the least when
ne learned that Gle sweetest little girl
In the whole wide world had fallen IL
love with him. However, the entire
blame should not be placed on Jerry's
shoulders. He was doubtless the spoil
eP pet Of an oyer-indulgent mother.
Now, to be sure, Louise Gray was
ueeply In love with the handsome STAN
ton boy, but she knew he thought too
much Of himself, and It troubled her.
Time and again she would pucker up
her pretty lips, frown and try to think
OF some plan to make her lover see
himself as others saw him.
One warm and lovely summer eve
ning the sailor had come bounding up
the steps of the Gray homestead. He
rang the bell knocked at the door and
called "her" name. Useless! No
sound reached his ear, and all was
darkness within. Slowly he retraced
his steps and began to walk around
the house. AS he reached the side
porch he heard voices, and yes, he
recognized his sweetheart's ringing
laughter With angry steps and beat
Ing heart he drew nearer. His at
tempt to play eavesdropper was re-
Warded when these words reached his |
ears TON, you're just a dear and l
love you" These few words, without
any doubt gave Boy Blue the "blues."
Jerry gave one last hopeless glance
at the porch above him and then made
his way toward the pond. He thought
nc would Jump in, but plans for re-
Venge caused him to turn around
Sharply and start for home. Just then
his root stumbled over something.
Jerry fell to the earth with a bang

out of the darkness came

Then the lovers came face to face
and both seemed bewildered. Jerry

about being fool, and asked Louise

Writing Of the period preceding and
following the American Revolutionary
war, Watson, In his quaint Annals,
has much to say concerning the fash

Instance of this, he writes: "In the
