UTRECHT'S PLACE IN HISTORY
Dutch own. in Which Kaiser May Dwell, Saw Beginning of His $
 Lines Rise to Power. T

Reports say that the ex-kaisaT has purchased a house near the historic town of Utrecht, Holland, and that he wishes to end his days there. k It was in Utrecht, 2O6 years ago, that the house of Hohenzoliern was first established in royal rank.
 It was in the peace concluded in 1713 that the ex-emperOr's ancestor, Frederick of Brandenburg, received acknowledgment from the leading Eu- ropean powers of his title of king of Prussia. This peace put an end to the long war of the Spanish succession, which many claim was begun over the fear that the ruling houses of France and Spain would become one, and up- set the European balance Of power. The ex-kaiser is part English, and it was England, with her continental al- lies of lesser strength, that virtually established the kingdom of Prussia.
 The same peace also made the duke of Savoy the king of Italy, but today the king of Italy rules over all of Italy except Savoy, which belongs to France. England has retained practically every thing 1t secured at that peace confer ence, including Gibraltar and Minorca, secured from Spain; Nova Scotia. New Brunswick and the Hudson bay ter ritOry from France, as we'll as valuable trading privileges in Africa and South America, from both France and Spain.

FATHER TRAINS NEW :
 LAWN TENNIS CRACK
Latest Sensation of Courts Gives
 His Parent Credit.
Young Star Began Praeticino for Net Honors When Ten Years of Age Swimming Was Valuable
 Training Asset.

Gerald Patterson, the newest Aus traIfan lawn tennis star, who is pit ting his skill against America's best, was not trained and developed by Nor man E. Brooks. Far from it.
 The young star gives credit to no one but his own father, who began grooming the boy for lawn tennis honors when he was ten years old. And the course of training included not only lawn tennis, but swimming, football and cricket. n
 In conversation with friend just after the recent triumph at Wimble- don, when he beat Brooks in the final round for the so-ca1led worlds cham piOnship, Patterson said:
 'I received no instruction from any champion. My father, who was really a good player, took me in hand when was ten years old, and picked up many valuable methods as the result of his teachings.
 "He considered that if was to make my mark among the first-class players I would have to train hard.
 Having to deal with high bounding balls, was able to develop and then perfect the backhand drive. also ac- customed myself to making a terrific smash on every occasion when was able to maneuver into the correct po- sition.
 Swimming also was a valuable as- set in my training, but I cultivated other forms of athletic pursuits as we'll and each served for general bene- 6f."
 Patterson made his first public ap- pearance when he was twelve years old and a student at Melbourne col lege.
 When the war broke out Patterson was mobilized for garrison duty and later suffered an attack of appendi- citis and was operated on. When he recovered his health he went to Eng

 "Why. Pm one of the Binghamton players" said Jock.

Radium paint is not the only thing that will illuminate watch on a dark night. So saith Benjamin F. Lock wood, somewhat defiantly, for he has just invented a decidedly complicated device for so doing.
 In the first place, you must wear a motorists glove: then you attach your watch to the back of the cuff; next you adjust the bulb and shade so the watch is illuminated. A battery is tucked in the side of the glove and wires run around until they terminate In two contact points in the thumb and first finger. #

Unique Easter Window

The Cochran Drug Company
are to be congratulated ON the
handsome show window tnat they
had decorated for the Easter sea-
son, There has, probably, never
in the history Of Punta Gorda
been a handson err and more I'M
ique window than the one this
enterprising company showed.
In the window, in a setting OF
moss and green boughs, were sew
eral rabbits of different species.
These rabbits were fraternizing
with little biddies, to the delight,
seemingly, Of both. One little
rabbit was roofing a biddie along
with its nose as one pig shoves
another.
A cunning nest, full of vari-
colored Easter eggs, was one of
the interesting parts of the dis
play. 1t would take a larger
vocabulary than we possess to
properly describe the window,
but it was observed of all observ-
ers and crowd was always SUR
rounding it. The rabbits are the
property OF Norman Cochran.
