ROSS Saves Child
FROM SERIOUS BURNS

Saving a child from very painful
burns, if not really saving its life,
in the deed of honor attributed to
James Ronald Ross, OF North
Eleventh street.
Sunday evening as a group OF
children were playing with fire
works in NorthrOp Elmer's yard,
the dress of Eleanor Potter hap
pened to catch on fire. AS soon as
Eleanor saw that her dress was
burning she began to scream and
run. With movements as quick and
intelligent as those of the animal
for which Ross Boy Scout patrol is
named-the Silver Fox-Ronald
caught the little girl and rolled her
vigorously in the grass, eXtinguish-
ing the flames Immediately. His
sister, Dorothea Ross, also helped
to put out the flames. AS result,
though Eleanor suffered a few
painful burns, there was nothing
serious about her injuries.
The little girl who was hurt, is
six years old, and lives in Mans
field, Ohio, but was visiting rela-
tives here over the Fourth of July.
Honor is given to ]. Ronald Ross
for his action and to the Y troop
of Boy Scouts in which he IS pa
troll leader.

Tommy, Proud Gunner
OF A Nesv StrarD Hat

Tommy and his mother entered
Blocks. They were in search of a
new straw hat for Tommy, for
Kitty had played with the other
one and knocked it down big we'll
near the house, barely escaping go
ing IN herself
See hile th"" found one that
suited them, and Tommy proudly
u... OF tie store. 1t was Il
yellow straw and had a bright blue
ribbon on it. Tommy wore it
home and carefully placed 1t on the
couch Just then the door-bell
rang, and in walked Aunt Mary
Louise.
Tommy didn't like Aunt Mary
Louise He thought her name too
long. He would rather call her
Aunt Mary or Aunt Louise, but ON
telling her so, she told him that if
he once called her that, he would
wish he hadn't. Now, Tommy al
ways called her by her full name.
Aunt Mary Louise always had
something the matter with her,
and usually carried a lot of medi
cine with her She didn't like boys,
especially rough ones.
Now, if Thomas were like little
George Abraham Meredith, but
here Tommy broke in, saying,
How are you feeling today, Aunt
Mary - Louise?" asked Tommy,
just remembering the Louise in
time.
Aunt Mary Louise took a snuff
box out of her bag before answer
ing, We'll, Thomas, l don't feel
very well today. | fear I am getting
appendicitis. l have felt bad
lately. Headaches, sore throat,
rheumatism" but Tommy heard
no more. 1t always made him sick
when Aunt Mary Louise came.
Now, when Aunt Josephine, or
Aunt Jolly, as they called her,
came, then it was fun.
Tommy decided to go out and
play. Where is my hat?" he asked
himself. Then he saw Aunt Mary
Louise was sitting on it! (To be
continued)-Marion Chenoweth.

Inca tot. ne-am bueura, 81 ..;.; /
lCa gindim 81 moi asa:
lDaca cere patria,
lSingele nil 'om varsa.
Foicica rupta n sapte,
Pc cine Domnul il bate,
iNu-l bate GU alte fapte
Numai GU strainatate,
lCaci nu-i trebe alt pacat
Far sd fie 'nstrainat,
lin Galitia pustie
Isl pima de saracie,
In aceste zile grele
In carl este multa jele.
