NATURES BLANKET OF SNOW
Beautiful Covering Sent to Afford Pro
lection to the Growing Things
offhe Earth.

Study the flakes; get out of doors
and allow them to ahght upon your
sleeve Take magnifying glass
and look at them. They are beau
ties-six-pointed beauties; no two
alike, but all of them six-pointed.
And when the snow comes In
drifts and swirls about the face of
the earth, and drifts into every nook
and Granny, look at it. Behold not
an enemy, but a friend. See how
nature has woven a blanket for her
little children. Comprehend, if you
can, the infinite patience that so de-
vised it that these little particles
should fall silently until they
formed a great sheet to cover the re-
gion-a wavy, warpy garment OF
purity to shut out the north wind,
the biting tongue that would lap up
the tender, growing plants of the
earth. There is no more wonderful
thing than the snow-and no more
kindlier thing; nor anything more
universal over the face of the earth.
Despise not the snow, nor complain
about it; let it kiss your cheek in af-
fection.-George F. Burke, in Co.
lumbus Dispatch.

MAY HAVE WANTED A MEAL
chipmunk in Boston Park Showed
Every Determination Of Ending
Life OF That Turtle.

A few days ago chipmunk was
seen drinking at the pond IN the
Boston Public garden He may have
been an escaped pet from a nearby
house; OF possibly turned loose by
some boy who had tired of his pet.
While the chlpmunk wae drinking
a turtle rose to the surface, swan to
the curblng and climbed up on the
stone to sun himself. The chipmunk
watched the turtle for a second, then
darted at it fiercely.
The turtle quickly drew in his
head; and the chipmunk ran to the
turtles rear and bit at the tail,
which the turtle quickly folded in
out of the way
The little chIpmunk then began
biting at the shell of the turtle, and
he tried to get III between the two
LAYERS of shell in order to find a
vital spot where be could bite the
turtle.
Finally a man interfered, and
picked up the turtle to throw it into
the water; and even then the chip
munk jumped up Ill the air and
tried to reach it. When the turtle
was thrown into the lake. the chip
munk ran chatterlng to the waters
edge; and then scampered up into
a tree.

Better Service Campaign in the
Express Business.

Ways and means for checking
waste caused by improper wrap
ping and marking of express
shipments were discussed at the
second meeting of the local ex-
press employees in the Better
Service Campaign being con-
Quoted throughout the Country
by the American Railway Ex-
press Company.
Agent D. w. Hoppock and en-
ployes of the local office dis
cussed the drive as related to
the different branches of the
business here. 1t was intimated
that though the cooperation of
business houses the drive for
higher standards of preparing
shipments for movement by ex-
press was making itself felt.
Particular emphasis was laid
upon the immense number of
shipments which must be turned
over to mo Mark Bureaus be-
cause all means TO Identification
have been lost as the result of a
single tag being torn off or the
wrapping insecure. The evil was
attributed largely to the poor
quality of paper and Irvine used
by some shippers as well as to
carelessness in addressing pack
ages, resulting in the shipments
going to the mo Mark Bureau
instead of consignee. Despite
constant effort to discover some
means of setting these ship
ments on the right track only a
small percentage can be recover
ed. This brings about a great
deal of dissatisfaction between
the shipper and the consignee
to say nothing of the time and
trouble involved in filing claim.
Never before in the history of
transportation the local express
agent declared, has there been
such a determined effort on the
part of the public utility to bet
ter. its service. The drive is of
named Importance to every bust
ness man because the subject re-
presents a matter of dollars and
cents to them. He expressed a
belief that if business heads
would take a personal interest in
their shipping departments to
see that the best methods were
being followed in he matter of
packing and marking shipments,
it would be a great help in bring
ing about better express service,
rs the co operation of shippers
s absolutely ESSENTIAL to the
success Of the present drive.
