FURNISHES JOY FOR KlDDIEs
Fountain in New York City Square
Put to, EminentIy Practical Use
in the Summer.

In New York, immediately south OF
the arch which divides Washington
square, there is a circle of concrete
walk. Inside that circle, like the wa
termelon riddle, there Is a circle OF
green grass, and inside that circle OF
green grass there is a small circular
pool OF clear, sparkling water fed by
a thin. geyserlike fountain From
early morning until nine O'Clock at
night in summer you can hardly see
this pool for the ring OF noisy, ecstatic
children gathered about it, shutting
off its view. For the kiddies OF the
nearby East side have discovered a
very practical use for the fountain.
They battle in It.
On q hot day the little pool is full of
small, sun-burned boys, who are not
restrained by the lack of bathing suits.
Some take the trouble to remove their
coats and outer trousers and leave
them on the edge, but others plunge
right In regardless OF dress. Their
mothers, who often accompany therDs
do not seem to object. AS one re-
marked the other day, "It saves the
wash" but whether she referred to her
sons clothes or to the boy himself was
not made clear.
Occasionally a policeman registers
a protest He orders them out of the
pool and disperses the crowd of ad-
hiring onl0okers, but as soon as his
back is sufficiently distant they are all
at it again. having as much fun as
ever. Stimulated by the shouts Of
their delighted audience, the young
swimmers perform the widest kind OF
acrobatic stunts.
The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1920-01-30

Some Of the peers rebuked by Lord
Salisbury for never appearing at
Westminster may be of the opinion OF
Dixraeii, who after three months ex-
perience OF the house OF lords declared
that he felt like one dead and in the
Elysian fields" The present ViscOunt
Peel used far stronger language In o
speech to his former constituents at
Taunton, complaining Of having been
forced to go to the house of lords
''Even guillotined house OF COM
MONS" he said, SIS better than the
muzzled melancholy of the house OF
lords. 1t is a severe trial to
one who has red blood ia his veins TO
walk perforce across the lobby into
the half-light and backwaters Of the
lords. !. Any social Difference
paid to q peer resembles that melted
out to a woman because of her weak
mess or the kindness extended to a
man with 4 wooden leg by those who
have the happiness not to be MANNED. :"

ILL LUCK FOLLOWED BOONE
Greatest of All Americas Pioneers of
Civilization Never FaVorite
OF Fortune.

With Kentucky won, Daniel Boone
found that, by one of the twists of
law, the plot of ground he thought was
his was not his at all. Almost like a
penniless 0utcast he moved TO Vir-
ginia, but when fresh tales came to
him of land in the west of the Mis-
sissippi, then called Louisiana, his six
ty-one years did not deter him from
riSking fresh start, relates Boys Life.
LIN 1895 he established himself near
the present city of st. Louis and took
what he thought was deed to land !;
bat in 1908, when this territory passed
from Spain to the United States, he
found this claim worthless. But now
the American people were awakened
to realization of what Boone's lead
ership In Kentucky had meant to the
nation. Congress granted him $50
acres Of land There in the West, free
from want he passed his last days
twenty-five years after his death his
remains were brought back to Ken
lucky. And In the land ne gave to
civilization he sleeps, this man who
carried the torch Of civilization among
q savage people and barred his chest
10 the shock of battle that it's flames
might not be extingulshed. ~
