CHATTER Y.
CAREY. to whom samuel

JAMES CAREY, to whom Samuel
Leighton had written for his
new chauffeur's reference, was
wise enough to make no protest to
David De LANES scheme.
In his heart he was rather glad
TO learn Of II. From a distance he
had watched this son of his old
friend-for Carey and David's
father had been boys together.
David's mother had died when he
was 4 baby. Her husband had
known how to make money. but
he had also known how to spend
il reckleSsly. At the time OF the
fathers death the only son was
twenty years old. When the debts
we're all paid and the funeral bills
settled very little remained OF
what had been q comfortable
fortune.
1t was then that Miss Jeanne
De Lame proposed that her
nephew make his home with her.
II will help you financially, my
dear Davey," she had said.
But David was firm in his de-
termination to stand on his own
feet. He had succeeded in work
ing his way through college, and
had secured q decent but not very
remunerative position, which he
held. until the outbreak Of the
war. Then he enlisted.
All this James Carey knew. for
he had corresponded with David
from time to time. He had
Eloried in what he called the
boys spunk" in not accepting his
Runt's offer to support him. Now
that David had written him OF the
terms of Miss De LANES will be
Eforied still more in the stand
taken by his young friend. Any
thing that David had asked of him
he was willing to do. Therefore,
IL the lad wanted to be an ordi-
nary chauffeur, Carey would send
his possible employer such a let
let as an ordinary chauffeur
would want written to the man
for whom he hoped to work
g.. A Favorable Report.
81 know the young man about
whom you inquire" MI Carey
wrote to Mr.. Leighton. II have
known him from his boyhood. He
. is Industrious, honest, Trustworthy,
and has no bad habits. Were 1 in
need Of some one to drive a car
would not hesitate to employ
David Smith"
A copy Of this note was enclosed
IN James Carey's Letter to David.
Were is what I am mailing to
your new employer" he wrote. Il

proud OF you. Indeed. I have al
ways been proud of you. You are
quite right to prefer to work under

Sir Johnston Forbes Robertson

the handsomest actor OF his day:
Irving was very fond of Terriss
and was nightly amused by the
unconscious impertinence with
which Terriess treated him. Irving
had a grill-roOm just Off the stage
at the Lyceum, in London, near his
own dressing room. One night Ter
riss smelled the savory odor OF APP
petizing cooking.
Fine smell, that" he said to
Irving, during a wait in the wings.

Careless Shampooing
Spells the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully.
II you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp. makes the hair
brittle, and ruins 1t.
The best thing for steady use is

and greaseless), and is better than
anything else you can usev-,--r.-s,
One or two teaspoonfulsewill cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly: Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub
it IN. 1t makes an abundance Of rich,
creamy lather. which rinses out cas-
lily, removing every particle OF dust

hair dries quickly and evenly, and ii
leaves the scalp. soft and the hair

cheap, and a few ounces will supply

DANIELS REVIEWS
BIG FLEET TODAY

SAN DIEGO. Cal. Aug. 7.-Califor-
MAS dream of a generation was real
lied today when Secretary of the
Navy Daniels set forth from this city
to review Admiral Rodman's thirty
FIVE ships Of the new Pacific feet, on
Coronado.
1t would be difficult for Fasteners
to realize the monentous Importance
OF this event to the Pacific coast. In
the newspapers all other news is
dwaTfed. One hundred and twenty
FIVE newspaper men. representing the
papers Of the coast cities. are in San
Diego today. The telegraph offices
are swamped with dispatches cover
ing the most minute details OF the
arrival Of the fleet.
The Californians are prepared to
bury the "gobs" in a deluge OF fruits
and flowers and to dance the legs of
the officers.
In a characteristic statement Ad-
miral Rodman said:
The fleet is here for business
not joy riding"
This crisp comment from the ad-
miraI recalled to many the famous
statement OF Admiral. Bob Evans
when he started around the world
that his fleet was ready for a fight
or a frolic."
The promise that the new Pacific
fleet will be the equal OF the Atlantic
feet in strength and efficiency, cou-
pied with Secretary Daniels assur-
ances that its arrival means larger
naval bases and protection for the
Pacific in the future identical to that
accorded the Atlantic. is being hailed
with delight today from San Diego to
BeIlingham.

The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-04-08
FARM BUREAU, DEvEL OPMENT
 NEEDED ID AID MARKETING

Meanwhile, the farmers of the United States in growing food will be using labor, machinery, and supplies that are abnorInally high priced, and with no positive assurance that they will get back the approximate cost of production, except in the case of wheat, and this only for the 1919 crop
 There Is every reason to believe that notwithstanding the high cost of labor, machinery, seeds, feeds. fer tiHzers, etc, the farmers of the Unit ed States will continue to grow the normal amounts of agricultural pro- duets. But because of decreased war needs and increased production in European countries, the farmers will need to give special attention 10 cooperation and efficiency in stand ardizing, grading, and marketing, if they are to be able to sell their pro- ducts at prices that will equal the cost of production.
