Ninety-Nine- Planning His Future

Avoid all worry and keep u har-

worst things In the world. Have "a
strong will power Always look for
the new. Keep calm"
On his ninety-ninth birthday ami
versary Doctor PEBBLES walked erect,
only occasionally using a cane; his
sight was good. although he used spec
tacles for reading; his hearing las
good as ever" and his appetite and
digestion he declared excellent. His
long white beard and hair gave him a
truly venerable appearance. Asked
what his plans for the future were, he
replied:
TO live number III years more
and TO write at least another book.
This will be on the progress Of Chris
tianity as 1t is preached. showing how
preachers are leaving hell fire, brim-
stone. purgatory and many other old
time dOgmas behind" Then he added {:
"In every marble block there is an
angels form awaiting the sculptOr's
chisel God is good. There is no at
solute evil in the universe, because
God made It."
Doctor PEBBLES was born March %,
1890, at Nottingham, VT, and was
graduated from Oxford academy, Che.

IL of girl appeals to q wholesome
boy? What things do boys object to?

Floyd Brown, director of the Young
Mems Club of Lake Forest, who says
he has had lots of experience with
girls. having been engaged three times
before he married, answers all these
Questions. On invitation he spoke to
40 girl students of a fashionable sem
mary.
Boys do not like girls who talk
loud, chew gum I'm public, powder their
noses or cross their legs in public. or
flirt with other men while under es-
cort," he said. "They like silk stock
ings and shapely legs, but girls who
exhibit these do not make much of a
hit.
Paint and powder may help at
times, but boy likes best the rudy
natural complexion. He likes Il girl
who snuggles up To him while dancing,
but doesn't respect the girl for it, He
doesn't care for the clinging vine type.
He wants a girl who can cook. who is
economical and thrifty. and who takes
an interest in children; girl in n

pleasant greeting.
