The Abb That Failed

They were bright youngsters With
imagination worthy of a better
cause-but let Judge Franklin
Chase Hoyt tell the story, as it un
folded itself to him one day, in the
Children's Court New York.
After Tony and Joe had stolen a
tempting looking box off an express
wagon, their first thought was for a
plausible explanation of their con-
duct in case any awkward questions
should be put to them.
Suddenly Tony had brilliant in
spiration. Say. it's a cinch." he
chuckled as he looked at the pack
age. IF any guy tries to pinch us,
We'll just tell him We're working for
Mr.. l. Gross!"
Having settled on this somewhat
mysterious plan to ward off posi-
BILE suspicion. they proceeded to open
their ill-gotten acquisition, and were
sorely disappointed to find that it
contained nothing but nail-brushes.
Now nail brushes were about the
last thing on earth to appeal to Tony
and Joe. They gazed upon the con-
tents of the box in utter detection.
"Hully gee. what do you think OF
that?" Tony tried to stifie some
thing like a sob as he reflected on
his waste of energy and misdirected
effort
1--WE might try TO sell EN-" observ
ed Joe placidly, land then we might
get some money for candy and NOV
les"
1t was obviously the only plan to
follow if any real benefit was to be
derived from their theft. So, moth
ing daunted, the two youngsters
proceeded to peddle the despised
brushes on the street at three for a
dime.
AS was to be expected their ac-
tivities in a very short time aroused
the suspicious of the police-officer on
the post.
Where did you get those brush
esq" he sternly inquired.
Joe looked anxiously at Tony.
Tony smiled back confidently at
Joe.
why, we're working for Mr.. l.
Gross " Tony answered with COM
placency. Come here and I'll show
you"
The officer walked with the two
bows toward the box. See, there
his name" and Tony pointed to the
empty receptacle.
The officer looked down and saw
written in large letters across the
box the inscription 81 gross"

LOCAL Athletes

Cambridge High School Boys Ana
Girls Preparing For Athietlc
E9entS.

The BOYS and girls of Cambridge
High School have been taking ad-
vantage of the past few days to be-
gin training for the Athletic events
in which they will take part during
the snrinc season. The boys have
started all kinds of jumping contests
while the girls are running lively
dodge ball contests, all in prepare
ton for Field Day which comes Sat
urdav, April 23rd. and in which
all the schools of the county are ask
ed to participate. In two of the
meets that have been here under the
AUSPICES of the Public Athletic
League first place has been won by
the county schools, their training
making up for the difference Id u laala
bers. This year the local boys are
trying to get in good shape and De
able to do all they know.
In baseball, the prospects for
good season are very bright. Inc
greater part of last years winning
combination have returned to school
and there is much promising new
material which will make some OF
the regular hustlers to stay i'll the
lineup.
Among the former players who
are candidates for this years team
are: Mace, Robinson. Hirst, Tyler,
Wolff, Simmons, Fountain and Rob
bins. Keenan,, who caught last
year, is lost to the team by gradual
ton and Trego, who did most of the
box work, may be lost by removal
from town. The promising new
players INCLUDE Neild, BeckWlth'
Dali and Murphy.
Should Trego not be in the line
up it is probable that Simmons Will
be called on to do most of the pitch
ing while Beckwith, Robinson,
Wolff or Mace will replace Keenan,
The season opens with game at
Hurlock, March 25th. The schedule
calls for two games each with Hur-

may also be arranged with Chester

being those of High Schools.
