N be we'll satisfied with their purchases.
Had it not been for the rain storm which
came up a few hours after the sale
started there is no doubt every head

live stock came here from several ad-
jacent parishes to take advantage of this
rare opportunity. From what we Learn
these sales will be conducted here every
week as long as the sales prove satisfac-

at the. houses, Peggy and Billy saw
friendly, shining faces ip every door
and window.
The owners of the faces were much
like Sun Beam in appearance. Some
were dressed in gold, and these. Sun
Beam explained, were in the service of
his majesty the Sun. Others were
dressed in silver. and these, said Sun
Beam, were subjects of Princess Moon.
Still others were robed in shining
white, and these. he declared, were the
attendants of the Stars, the street lights
of Cloud Land
Peggy and Billy eagerly ran up and
down hill to see all they could of Cloud
Land. and before long they heard happy
voices singing a merry song:
Rainbow fairies. one and all,

SAILING OF FLEET,
PANAMA CANAL TEST
Pacific Squadron Will Leave
Hampton Roads July 1e
for San Diego

Washington, July 15.-The newly
organized Pacific fleet will sail from
Hampton Roads July 40, instead OF
July %, as previously arranged, it has
been decided at conference between
Secretary Daniels and Admiral Hugh
Rodman, commander of the fleet.
The date of the fleets arrival at San
Diego, Calf, was fixed as August q
or s. T
The fleet will test for the first time
the strategic possibilities of the PAN
anna canal. Later it will determine in
a practical way the lines along which
the naval bases in the Pacific must be
developed to take care of the large mum
ber. of ships in Pacific waters.
The movement of the fleet already has
begun. Some of the auxiliary vessels,
such as Golfers, are on the way. Other
ships now in the Atlantic transport
service will be sent to the Pacific as
soon as they have been released and
repaired.
The main feet will arrive at San
Francisco about the time the Presi-
dent reaches the Pacific coast, and
great naval demonstration will be made
for the first time in those waters.

There was slight falling off of bust

but the normal business was, at least,
double what it was Il month before.
Some few people asked if we couldn' t
let them have one or two teaspoons to
complete a set.
Following out Dukes plan. we told
oil such people that we could not supply
any more, but they could get them Hat
the Grafton Jewelry Store for twenty
five cents each. We had arranged it
with the makers Of the teaspoons that
the Grafton Jewelry Store could stock
that pattern temporarily on n sale-re-
turn basis, so as to supply extra spoons
to people wanting them.
BY making the retail price twenty
five cents the Grafton Jewelry Store
made big profit and it placed fair
value on our gift teaspoons. 1t also

Often has it been said that the loss

truth of this statement than the fol-

they came to the top Of the hill, and
there they stopped to shout with pleas
ure. Before them stretched a SHIN
mering crystal arch and high up at its
very topmost point was jeweled
throne. On this throne was seated
beautiful princess. In front Of her
danced the rainbow fairies, pretty little
creatures dressed in gowns of many
colors.
The colors of their garments shone
in the crystal arch and were thrown
back as If by a mirror. The sight was
one of dazzling beauty.
''The rainbow fairies dance because
King Sun has>driven away the Storm
King and his armies" explained Sun
Beam. Both King Sun and Storm
King are rivals for the hand of the
Rainbow Princess. She prefers King

"And so it is the dancing fairies who
make the rainbow we see,' exclaimed
Billy.

II should think the dancers would
fall off that smooth, steep arch" said
Peggy.
They are held on by the beauty OF
the Rainbow Princess. which attracts
all who come near her." declared Sun

The Rainbow Dancers


Doggy and Billy felt many strange
thrills as they foated upward in the
soap bubble balloons. First they
watched the earth drop out of sight
below them. Then they turned their
eyes anXiously toward misty mountain
like masses they were swiftly approach =
ing. Out of these masses whizzed small
storm clouds. swoopng around the
bubble like airplanes and threatening
to smash into them. BtIt faster. faster
sped the watery balloons, up. up until
they seemed about to, crash against
the mountain like masses. which, Peggy
How saw, were cloud banks. Peggy
and Billy held their breaths. for they
knew how easily bubbles burst.
But just as the crash seemed certain
the clouds parted like misty curtains
the bubble balloons hoated safely
through and there they were in thc
strangest world they had ever seen.
1t was land of huge. moving noun.
tains and of restlessly changing scenery.
Fleecy white summer clouds which
formed the roof of the earth were the
surface of this remarkable kingdom.
They were piled and heaped upon each
other like huge snowdrifts. Amid the
cloud masses ran roads-paths of gold
formed by the suns rays. Facing on
these roads and rocking up and down
as the clouds rose and fell were little
houses made of pretty blue sky, with
doors and windows of shimmering sun
light.
The bubble balloons came to rest and
Peggy and Billy stepped out. They
found the cloud surface unexpectedly
firm and walked with ease.
