Was Bound TO 60 ALONG.

Harry's father and friend were
going for a walk 0ne Sunday after
noon, and Harry insisted on going
along. His father said he would give
him nickel IL he stayed home. Harry
refused The father then promised to
bring him back bicycle if he stayed
at home and was a good boy. Harry
pondered this for a moment and re-
piled: mo. I'll go along and ride it
back"

Once upon time nickel was real
money-but those days are gone. In
the days of our youth, watermelons
could be purchased from the passing
farm wagon for the sum of cents,
but now not even the transparent
slice can be obtained for this sum.
Enough bananas could be bought for
8 cents to give three boys indigestion
but that was long ago. There was a
time when small boys were wont to
do chores around the home for the
coveted nickel-but not now. Who can
forget the man who used to walk into
the cigar store and say, in loud
voice, "Give me a good nickel cigar"
There was a time when a nickel
bought loaf of bread, or a dish of
ice cream, paid for a shoe shine and
even made sizable tip. Some of the
old citizens, in their more reminiscent
moods, can recall those days-or at
least they say they can. But gradual
ly, one by one, the uses of the "jitney"
passed away. 1t would buy nothing to
eat, nothing to drink, unless re-en-
forced b the once despised penny.

Have you ever heard Henry Van
Dykes story, 'The Other Wise Man ?"
He was one of the Magi whose study
of the stars told him that a great
king was to be born among the He
brews. He started from the City of
among the mountains of
Persia to go to Jerusalem to find the
king. He was detained on the way,
because he took time to perform an
act of mercy, and arrived at Bethle-
hem too late. His companion had been
there three days before. Joseph and
Mary had fled with the babe into
Egypt. For thirty-three years he
searched for sthe king. Did he find
him? Be sure to hear this story,
which is illustrated with fifty-three

Thenewspaper office of the future
one without presses, typesetting ma
chimes, casting boxes or other costly
and complicated machines used today
in newspaper production-such is the
office visualized by Oscar Roesen, vice
president of R. Hoe & Co., press build
ers. In a letter to the Brooklyn
Eagle recently, Mr.. Roesen gives his
idea of the possibility of the news
paper office of tomorrow. "No press
room," he writes, "but a large room
filled with telegraph instruments and
operators, each instrument connected
with thousands of wires forming a
cable running underground to the
houses of all subscribers, a bulletin
board in the home of every subscriber
with a stock ticker printing arrange
ment connected by a wire with the
main instrument in the publication Of
flee. When any news was ready and
the copy was given to the telegraph
operator it would be flashed over the
the wires, possibly one instrument
printing through twenty thousand
wires to twenty thousand subscribers,
onthe order of the telephone system,
all the news as fast as it comes in
Before the subscriber goes to bed
he puts in fresh sheet of paper and
while he sleeps the news is printed
on the sheet and read at his break
fast"

THE FIRST DOUBT

Gf1A1 LEN ~
That evening was the second time
since their marriage h a Harry
found the doorway empty when ne
came up the road to his home. He
sensed hat something was wrong at
once and q~uickened his steps.
To him this was the browning
of the day. The office was
a means to an end. a place to work
hard in and make money. The money
was to support the wonderful woman
and the wonderful home, and the
reward of his work came daily when
he turned the roadway and caught
sight of the house. Through the
arching trees he could see first the
artistic outlines and the gabled roof,
then as he came to the main road
and turned off the n that led from
the station, he could e through the
yard the big doorway, invitingly open
and framing the slender figure of his
wife. And no matter how tired he
was, the sight never failed to send
q deep thrill of satisfaction and hap
piness all through him. He purpose
ly avoided acquaintance with his fell
low commuters so he could walk up
from the station alone and have this
minute quite for himself. He was
glad the house was set apart from
liz Nltldhes ~ GU an u W. ~
alone with Louise with no inquisitive
eyes to peer over the yard when he
kissed her.
When he saw the empty doorway
he was afraid some minor tragedy
had occurred, a burnt steak or a des-
sert that boiled over and filled the
room with ill-smelling smoke. But
there was no odor of burnt food, in
deed, no odor of dinner at all. nor
any CHEEKY sounds of %bubbling things
from the kitchen. The kitchen vas
empty.
He went up to their room and
found Louise a heap of misery lying
on the bed asleep. Her eyes were red
from crying, traces of tears were on
her cheeks, and her face was a
deathly white. She woke up at the
sound of his voice, and sat on the
bed, her hair falling in tangles
around her shoulders, her p%rettiness
completely gone for the time.
What is it. sweetheart, what has
happened" Harry asked a%nRiously,
as ne sat down and gathered her up
in his arms. The tears came again
as she started the story of the morn
ing's humiliation and she cried weak
ly, as people do who have been
through Mysteries and have not yet
recovered their conposure. Harry
listened gravely. once in a while
kissing her eyes or mouth as she
talked.
It's my fault" he said finally II
should have made III a schedule and
we should have followed It. I've been
drifting just as you have, thinking
I'd get that raise they promised me-,

turkeys have not been fixed so the

will range between fifty and ffty-five
cents. The reason for the soaring of
turkeys this year is not given, al
though familiar reasons such as the
high price of labor and the like are
quoted.
Weather conditions one butcher
stated will regulate the price of fowl
greatly up to the holiday. Cold
weather will raise the price while the
continuation of mild weather will
procure the fowl at a much lower
price.
