county from a wartime necessity to
merely favorite outdoor sport: we
accomplish it SO nonchalantiy, It's

esting to know that rs soon as he
British took possession of Palestine
and other Near East countries. the
Red Cross volunteered their aid to the
committee to whom we ali dorated
last week. and up to Decsmbcc, 1918.
we had appropriated s5.1ls.505 for re-

cured, they danced and sang until
noon. Later they returned to their
homes. but kept away from the high
school building during the remainder
,f the day.
The matter was referred to the
Board of Education and a conference
relating to it was held between its
members and the high school faculty
in an effort to reach some common
basis for action looking to a settle
ment of the proposition What agree

SOLDIER BOY KICKS
AGAINST Y.M.C.A.

what they failed to do" said John N.
Currie Of Melrose, Mass, who Is just
home from operating Red Triangle
huts in the Calais and Ypres sectors.
The censor one evening came across
q letter from a boy to his folks back

and served on toast with a garnish Of
all the Scotch blessings and reverse
English the boy had on hand. Now
the censor IL a pretty tired man. and
1should not have blamed him II be
had let that letter 60. But, there was
an extra strong touch Of exaggeration
In It that reused the censor's sense Of
justice.
So he sent the letter to the captain
Of the boys company and the captain
called the boy In. This Is the CONVEX
sation that followed:
did you write this letterr
Eyes, sir"
"Read 1t over@s there anything
there you'd. like to change before 1t

Then there was a short pause, IN
which the captain studied the boy
and the boy set his jaw stubbornly.
Finally:
"where did you get this letter."
'The ~ sir"
"Who gave you the paperr
'The r. SIR"
'Its warm and cozy. and something

There was another pause, and the
boys face was redder and his express
sion softer. Then: .s5....s

without word he took It from the
officers hand. tore 1t once across. and
