The Little Citizen:
"Oh. look! There aren't any
worms on the cabbage now at all.
There haven't been any since the
day we sprayed. How much you
know about the garden. Where did
you learn 1t all" He looks up at
her wonderingly.
The Garden Supervisor:
"Oh, see who cOmeS!"
!, They turn and look and an old
man with white beard and snowy
garments comes in.
The Garden Supervisor:
Greeting to you Winter Days"
Winter Days mods and slowly
comes forward to the center of the
stage.
II thank you. Your work is go
ing we'll this year and am much
pleased. ! am making this journey
today through many gardens OF the
country to see whether the people
are remembering that before many
months ! will be here again for my
long winter reign and see whether
they are wisely storing away a
generous supply from their gar
dens for winter use. How about
my Little Citizen, have you re-
membered?"
"Oh, yes! We planned for that
when first we bought the seeds"
Winter Days:
"And what have you had that
you have stored away?"
The Little Citizen:
We've had ever SO many peas
and beans. Some carrots and beets
and just a little corn, but more is
coming on, and some tomatoes
too"
Winter Days:
Good, yoa have done well. Have
you helped your mother with the
canning at homer"
The Little Citizen:
mo, my mother is busy and
away all day and we have no place
to do the work so we take the
things to or canning center and
the girls in the Canning Club there
do them for us"
Winter Days:
Eyes. l sec, that makes it very
nice. And when this garden here
is covered deep with snow and my
bitter winds sweep over it, glad
will you be that you did this work.
Now I must hurry on for there are
many other gardeners / must see
today. l trust that all can give as
welcome a report as YOU"
Winter Days passes out.
The Garden Supervisor:
And / must 60 also. ! am well
pleased with your garden and hope
next time to sc it as free OF weeds
and bugs as it is today. 1t will
not be long now before the final
harvest comes and then we will
reckon up all that your garden has
borne this year. Come, bring that
basket and we will take it over to
the Canning Center.
The two pass out as the curtain
falls.

den scene. In the center of the

HISTORIC BERMUDAN CHURCH
ST. Peters Has, Many Mementoes sof
Interest to Both EngIlshmen
aud Americans.

One Of the most interesting
churches to be found anywhere is did
st. Peters In Bermuda. It Is In the
told town of st. Georges, and was
built In 1713 on the same site as the
first church, built in 1880. 1t is buiN
Of the native white limestone, as are
all the buildings in the BermudAs,
and 1t shows the marks Of time.
Everything in and about st. Peters
is intensely interesting. Its church
yard contains, among others, the
grave of Hester Tucker, the "Nea" be-
loved Of Thomas Moore, the poet, who
was an official at st. Georges at one
time, and promptly fell In love with
pretty Hester. Every square inch OF
the old church walls, inside, are COW
cred with memorial tablets, many OF
them being the work of famous Eng
lish sculptors. Not few of the tab
lets perpetuate the memory of mem
bers of the English nobility and It
makes one realize what scourge vel
lew fever and smallpox were before
, science got in its beneficent work, for
4 illusions to smallpox and yellow fever
being the cause of the deaths are very
numerous. st. Peters has q massive
silver communion service presented
by King William III of England, and
q christening basin, the gift Of Gov.
William Browne Of Salem, Mass, In
1888. The pieces presented by the
king all have the insignia Of the Or
der of the Garter.

OLD WELL sTILL PRODUCING
Hole Drilled for Oil In Pleo Canyon,
California, Continues to Pour
Forth Wealth.

The hrst known discovery Of petro-
leum in California was made in 1885,
by Mexican hunter. who had followed
deer trail to the head of Pico canyon
In Los Angeles county, near the pres
ent town of Newhall.
He came upon seepage of sticky
fluid that was unknown to him.
Prompted. by curiosity he collected a
small quantity of 1t and took 1t to the
mission settlement at San Fernando.
There Doctor Gelsich, who had for
merly resided in Pennsylvania, idehti-
fed 1t as petroleum and at once formed
company and staked out claims. In
1870 shallow we'll was drilled at the
head of Pico canyon, and is said to have
produced at the time Of drilling be-
tween 20 and rs barrels of oil per
day.
About this time D. G. Scoheld
formed what was known as the Cali
fornia Star Oil company. Later the
Pacific OIL company was formed, and
the two companies were operated Pm
der the same management--C. A. Men
try being field superintendent, and Mr..
Scotield, vice president and general
manager.
The old well today is the property
of the Standard OIL company Of Gal
ifornia, and stands as the first and
Oldest well in the state. 1t has never
been prominent factor in Californip's
petroleum industry as 1t is known TO.

drilled haven't even a derrick left ito

Holding that it was for the best in- terest and welfare Of the child, Judge A. A. Gibbons of Apache county yes- terday ruled that little Violet Menderil remain in the custody of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Ramsey with whom she has made her home for more than a year.
 The order went on record in the office of the clerk of the court yester- day when the ruling in the habeas cor pus proceeding was received from the north.
 The childs custody was bitterly fought in the local courts, the action having been instituted by Mrs Mary Siebert. grandmother of the little girl. Both Judge Stanford and Judge Ly- man were disqualified and Judge Gib- bons sat in the hearing, which Was held early in the winter.
 The Menderil child lived with her grandmother, who, when she became ill, was unable to give her proper care and consented to her husbands plac- ing the youngstcr in the Detention Home.
