that one horse couldn't be expected

the children.
At five o'clock the party broke

EDITH HAS BIRTHDAY PARTY.
Cllanfer Xxx.

Chapter INlX.
Edith was three years old, and
she was having . birthday party
All my mother pride expressed
itself in making this party a really
gala affair. Edith was growing so
tall; she looked frail and delicate,
and was such a sweet, serious little
soul that | always felt | must hold
on to her for fear l might lose
her.
My love for my baby, my joy in
caring for her, had been the one
perfectly satisfying thing in my
married life. Clifford seemed fond
enough of her when with her, but
made little fuss over her. Yet /
knew he was proud of her delicate
beauty, her lark-like voice and the
attention she invariably received
wherever we took her,

of age and had provided a simple

quantity dressed dolls for the girls
and funny clowns for the boys
The ice cream | served in the form
of common domestic animals,
which even the smallest child
could recognize. The little "Oh's!'
and Ah'sn' and little squeals of de-
light more than repaid me for my
trouble.
Muriel Franklyn had offered to
help me entertain my tiny guests,
and we romped and played games
with almost as much enjoyment as
did the children. Clifford came
home-as he had promised about
four o'clock, and appeared very
much amused at our antics.
Clifford Plays "Horse."

UNCLE wIGGILY AND THE Boz
tBy Howard r.. Garis.)


Dear me!' exclaimed Nurse
Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy, the muskrat
lady housekeeper of the hollow
stump bungalow, one morning.
u never saw such a place"
whats the matter with the
placer" asked Uncle Wiggily, as
ne came out in the kitchen where
Nurse Jane was fussing away.
"Oh, didn't exactly mean the
bungalow" went on Miss Fuzzy
Wuzzy, "but I need 4 box in which
to keep elothespins, and l haven't
any. I've been using a basket, but
Sammie Littletail, the rabbit boy
came to borrow it the other day
to go fishing, and ] haven't seen
it since"
so you need box, do your
asked Uncle Wiggily, slow and
thoughtful like.
"A box for my clothespins, went
on Nurse Jane. IF you're down at
the six and seven cent store you
might bny me one

Can you make a box?" asked
Nurse Jane.
well, / guess If l can help
hatch baby robins out of their eggs,
as | did last week, / can easily
make n box for clothespins," said
Mr., Longears, not at all proud or
boastful like, as might naturally be
supposed.
"TL get some pieces of wood my
hammer and some long, sharp
thorns for nails, and I'll make you
such o. box for your clothespins as
never was, Nurse Jane" said the
rabbit gentleman.
THANK you, very much" re-
sponded Miss Fuzzy WuzZy.
Uncle Wiggily was always glad
to have something to do when he
wasn't looking for adventures. SO
he put on an old paper cap, such
as carpenters wear, and he put on
his old clothes and then, borrowing
an extra saw from Mr.. Sawfish,
the carpenter, and getting some
boards and thorn nails, Uncle Wig
gily started to work,
us it hard to make q box, Uncle
Wiggily?" asked Floppy Twistytail,
the piggie boy, as he came grunt-
ing along with Jackie Bow Wow.
the puppy dog lad, as Uncle Wig
gily was hammering away.
"Oh, no, 1t is very easy" an
swercd the bunny. All have to do
is to take four pieces Of wood for
the sides and fasten them together
with thorn nails. Then l fasten
a piece on for the bottom and an
other piece for the top. I'm put
ting on the bottom now" and as
Uncle Wiggily said this, he whack-
ed and hammered the boards until
he had nearly finished the box for
Nurse James clothespins, while
Floppy and Jackie looked on.
The piggie boy and doggie boy
were just thinking how wonderful
Uncle Wiggily was, to be able to
hatch robin eggs and make things
for Nurse Jane, when, all of sud
den. there was a rustling in the
bushes and out stepped the bad
old Skeezicks.
"Ah, you are busy, / see said
the Skeezicks, sort of sarcastic like
and hungry.
"Yes--yes, / am rather busy"

and to repay her for all the fruit
less seeds.
And so it is with the woman
whose life is constant round Of
homework. Her family does not
praise her every time she bakes her
excellent bread; the hundreds OF
tedious duties she performs are not
even realized by those she serves;
she receives no sympathy for her
packaches which come, week in
and week out, as she does certain
tasks which tire her. And vet
the one little seed of sacrifice that
takes root occasionally repays her
a thousandfold for all the fruitless
seeds she sows.
What are these fruitful seeds
Sometimes they take the form of
the look of pride on husbands
face when he passes his guest a
piece Of supremely delicious cake
baked by his wife. Sometimes they
come to view in the casual refer
ence of the merest stranger who
has heard that the soWer of the
seeds Of sacrifice is "a wonderful
housekeeper." Sometimes they ap-
pear in the sudden, impulsive sug-
gestion of a loved one that the
housekeeper take a day off be-
cause you work so hard"
In other words, the housekeeper
who works hard and constantly,
asking no return, has the deep
down, certain feeling that her eff
forts are appreciated, and this is
the secret of her willingness TO
make the sacrifice she is making.
Hard homework has its fruits, and
the sweetness of their unexpected
blossoming repays a woman for all
the long hours of labor which are
seemingly unappreciated.

Mosouero to Dawson, will run
thirty bushels per acre, and the
land is selling as high as sos an
acre.
The railway is lined with eleva-
tors. Roy has two. One of them be-
ing of $4,000 bushels and the other
5000 bushels capacity. There is
also an elevator at Solano, and an
elevator and wheat mill at Mos
uuero. The wheat mill is fifty bar
rel capacity.
What is known as the wheat belt
of the Roy country, includes the
mesa lands from where the Dawson
railway crosses the divide north

said Uncle wiggily, as he got ready
to nail the cover on the box.
"And / am going to be busy
also," snickered the Skee. II am
going to he busy, in just a minute,
taking souse off your ears. All ha!'
"Oh, please don't!" begged the
bunny gentleman.
"Ha! Hal Yes, l shalt" went on
the Skee. II haven't had bit of
rabbit ear souse today, and / am
oh! so hungry"
Jackie Bow Wow suddenly lean
ed over and whispered to Uncle
Wiggily. The bunny gentleman
dropped the hammer and put his
paws up to hts ears, and then he
thrust his paws down into the box
he was making.
Here Hold on see what you
are trying to do" shouted the
Skeezicks. "You are trying to hide
the souse from your ears in that
box, but you can't do it! I'll get
it out!"
With that the Skee stuck his
two front skinny paws down inside
the box and began feeling around
on the bottom for Unce Wiggiy's
souse, which he thought was there.
Now, nail him FAST Nail his
paws inside the box, Uncle Wig
gily!", suddenly barked Jackie.
The rabbit gentleman took up
the hammer and the thorn nails,
and, while the Skee's paws were
still in the box, Mr.. Longears fas-
tened on the cover. letting she
Skee's legs stick out, of course, but
his paws were held fast.
Now, let's see you get my
souse!" cried the bunny. as he and
the piggie boy and doggie chap got
ready to run away.
What. Isn't your souse in this
box?" howled, the Skee.
'No, I only told him to make
believe put it there, to fool you, so
he could nail your paws fast, and
he did it," barked Jackie. Then
the bunny and the animal boys ran
safely away, and the Skee had to
wait for the Pipsisewah to come
to get his paws out of the box.
But Mr.. Longears made another
box for Nurse Jane. And if the

W.s In Most Hazardous Service
 Throughout the War

Altar q service of ten years in the U. s. Navy and after doing hazardous dutv on q mine sweeper throughout the war, Charles Belair, Jr., son o1 MT. and Mrs. Charles Belair, was stricken with the influenza, followed hv pneumo onia, and died at his home in Philadelphia Wednesday night.
 The telegram announcing his death arrived in Putnam Thursday morning and the news came as great shocK to relatives and many friends, for he was in Putnam on furlough up to little over a week ago. He was the picture of health and it seemed ln- credible that in so short time he could be taken away.
 MT. Belair was born in the town o1 Thompson, October 25th, 1887, but the family came to Putnam when ne was but seven years old and he ae- tended the schools here and later en- tered the mill. He did not like the confinement of the factory and when moving pictures first established them selves permanently he became an op- orator.
 MT. Belair enlisted in the navy ten wears ago and was fond of the life, re- enlisting at the expiration of each term. He was for some years sta toned on the battleship Connecticut, Durine the war he was chief quarter master on the mine-sweeper Whlp- ,onrxy;b and was constantly in the danger zone and recounted many haz- ardous undertakings while the vessel was engaged in freeing the North Sea of mines. His ship but recently re- turned to port, after finishing the task, and Chief Quartermaster beialr took the opportunity to visfrhis home here.
 February 9th, 1919, MT. Belair mar ried Miss Blanche Bochroak Tn Pnila- delphia, and they were keeping house in a small apartment. Besides the wife and parents, MT. Belair leaves four brothers and one sister.
 Mr. Belair was of kindly and pleasant disposition and made frienas easily. He became we'll known Tn Putnam, as he often took part in anna teur theatricals. He was young man of high ideals and was respectei py all who knew him.

Earle Warren, SS, died at the Day Kimball hospital at 3 o'clock Wednes. day morning from injuried received when he was caught on sawrnill car riage and his body thrown on top of the saw. He leaves wife and six small children in Quadic.
 Warren was a wood measurer and was employed with sawmill gang working for l.. A. Logee of Thomp- son. The mill was set up on lot in East Putnam.
 Tuesday afternoon Warren stood near the carriage of the saw. A log had been placed on the carriage and the cutting operation started. It is thought that Warren's clothing was caught by the log or the carriage and that he was pulled to the top of the log and his body thrown to the top of the swiftly revolving saw. Those working with Warren say that the ac- cident happened so quickly that they can not tell just how it did occur.

MEXICO FREES
 U. s. PLIERS
Lieuts. Davis and Grimes De- livered Back to American
 Army
Were Taken Prisoners When Forced
 to Land on Mexican Soil

Lieuts. E F. Davis and G. k. Grimes, taken prisoners when forced to land on Mexican soil last week, as told in the last issue of The Patriot, have been returned to the U. s. Army at Laredo, Texas.
 The two young aviators ran out of oil and gas and when they landed were taken into custody last week Wednesday by Carranza. Other fliers went to the Mexican border ready to take necessary supplies to their broth CT officers, but were not allowed to cross the border.
 Sunday afternoon the two lieuten- ants were released at Nuveo Laredo and crossed the Rio Grande to Lora- do, Texas. Army officers had been in structed to make all possible haste in seeking the release of the aviators.
 Military authorities in Washington had expressed the opinion that the Mexican government had the right to hold the aviators until a complete ex- planation had been given for then presence on Mexican soil. It was pointed out that Mexican fliers who might alight north of the frontier would be held by the American au- thorities, until an investigation of theii presence was made.
 Lieut.. Davis is the son of MT. and Mrs. Everett Davis, Gary district, an is a graduate of the Putnam High  school, class of 1916.

State Automobile Inspector Ralph Young, Harry Luce. special agent of the Automobile Underwriters Detect i've Bureau of New York. and Captain John Bulger of the Putnam police department, have continued the inves- tigation relative to stolen automobiles found in this section, as was first an- nounced by The Patriot last week, and say that at least eight and possi- bly ten cars have been found that in all probability were stolen before be- ing disposed of in this section.
 There is no suspicion that the men now in possession of the cars have any guilty knowledge hat>they were stol- en. but it is believed that they have been innocent victims and stand to lose money unless they get reimburse ment from those from whom they di- rectly bought the machines.
 Four of the cars, now being held by the officers, have been positively lden- tifed. These are the following:
