TN their old-fashioned New England
home the little women lived with
Mrs. March, their brisk and CHEEKY
mother, who always had "can-I-help
you" look about her, and whom her
four girls lovingly called 'Marmee."
Pretty Meg, the oldest, was sixteen,
and already showed domestic tastes
and talents, though she detested the
drudgery Of household work; and, a
little vain of her white hands, longed
at heart to be fine lady. 10, fifteen.
was tall, thin and coltish, and gloried
in an unconcealed scorn Of polite con-
ventions. Beth, thirteen, was low
able little thing, shy, fond Of her dolls
and devoted to music, which she tried
hopefully to produce from the old,
jingling tinpan Of a piano. Amy,
twelve, considered herself the flower
Of the family. An adorable blonde,
she admitted that the trial Of her life
was her nose. For, when she was a
baby, 10 had accidentally dropped her
into the coal-hod and permanently
flattened that feature, and though poor
Amy slept with patent clothespin
pinching II, she couldn't attain the
Grecian effect she so much desired.
Father March was an army chap
lain In the Civil war, and in his abb
sence 10 declared herself to be the
man Of the family. To add to their
slender income, she went every day to
read to Aunt March, peppery old
lady; and Meg, too. earned small
salary as daily nursery governess to
neighbours children.
In the big house next door to the
Marches lived rich old gentleman,
Mr.. Laurence, and his grandson, a
jolly chummy boy called Laurie.
Though awe-inspiring at first, Mr..
Laurence proved both kindly and gen.
erous, and even timid Beth mustered
up courage to go over to the "Palace
Beautiful" at twilight and play softly
on the grand piano there. But, as she
confessed to her mother, when she be
gan she was so frightened her feet
chartered on the floor.
The night Laurie took the two older
girls to the theater, Amy, though not
invited, insisted on going, too. 10
Grossly declared she wouldn't go If
Amy did, and furiously scolding her
little sister, she slammed the door and
went of, as Amy called out: "YouIl
be sorry for this, 10 March! See If
Won ANTI" The child made good her
threat by burning up the manuscript
Of a precious book which 10 had writ
ten and on which she had spent three
years OF hard work. There was ter
rible fracas, and. though at her moth
er's bidding Amy made contrite apol-
ogy, 10 refused to be pacifed. It was
only when poor little Amy was nearly
drowned by falling through the ice
that conscience stricken 10 forgave her
sister and learned much-needed les
son Of self-control.
Meg, too, learned q salutary lesson.
when she went to visit some fash
ionable friends and had her first taste
OF "Vanity Fair" Her sisters gladly
lent her all their best things, and, as
she said to 10: you're dear to
land me your gloves! feel 80 rich

Heretofore there has been only one lay Of automobile racing at the State Fair of Louisiara, but at the 1920 Fair there will be two days of this kind of racing, October 31 and November '. With the prize money the largest aMcunt oH record, and entries more numerous. the greatest field of motor racea ever witnessed at the State Fair R Louisiana is promised. More .han d dezen of the foremost drivers i'll motordcm are scheduled to take part in these contests. They are speed demons who do not know the meaning ef fear They will whirl their cars around the mile circuit at maniacal speed, and those who enjoy sure enough thrilling entertainment will get moro than their monez's worth.
 In seeking the purses hung up for these races, the dare-devils will use soma of the most noted motor cars ever constructed. These machines were built especially for speeding, not the ordinary kind of speeding but the kind that makes ones hair stand up with excitement.
 TRere have been some wonderful records made on the State Fair track. 1t would appear almost impossible for some Of these to be surpassed, but thero are drivers due to race in the two days meet this year who will try to smash 'em.
 AS heretofore, J. Alex Sloan of Chi eago, will direct the motor races. That means that the meet will be in charge of one of the worlds foremost auto mobile race officials.
