IF that old maxim about the twig

to work both ways, and the sanity boy
always would become a grand, good
man. But as rule the truly good
boys don't amount to much In after

were hard citizens when they we're
boys, and the shiftess, no-acCOunt men
were simply angelic when they went
to school.
"A boy gets tired OF being immacu-
late after he has tried 1t a few years,
and he goes to the other extreme.
And the boy who has been a horrible
example ever since he left the cradle

has cut his wisdom teeth, and he be-
comes so vlrtuOus that there's no llv-

Most Of the old sayings are fool

Learning an Anthem.

A choir leader says: in beginning
the study Of a new anthem l find it u
good plan to go right through the
whole piece at the first attempt to get
the general outline and the spirit Of
it. At the first reading l pass by
all mistakes such as false notes, wrong
time, improper phrasing, etc, In some
works it pays to run through the whole
anthem this way two 0r three, times
that the piece may be grasped sutii-
GENTLY to enable the singers 10 study
the details with more intelligent re-
lation to the whole.

RUNAWAY BALLOON
BOOMERANG IN WIND
Currents at First Threaten to
Carry Three Passengers
Out Over Ocean.

LAKEHURsT, n. j.. Aug. 11.-An OBJ
scrvation balloon with three passengers
broke loose from its moorings at the
Naval Air Station here this afternoon
and drifted out toward sea. There was a
strong wind blowing oceanward at the
time. Serious apprehension was felt for
the airship's occupants as the balloon
disappeared into the clouds.
Two officers and an electrician were
the occupants. The balloon had just
come down from a trial flight when the
cable used to haul il snapped as the
balloon was close to the ground. 1t shot
upward instantly. None OF the occu-
pans had an opportunity to leap.
Without motive power Of any kind the
balloon rose to about 5000 feet 1t had
almost reached open water at Toms
River when contrary wind currents sent
the balloon back over the course 1t had
just travelled
No report Of the missing balloon was
sent out from the Naval Air Station
and inquiries there tonight were met
with the reply that nothing was known
OF balloon which had broken away"
When the balloon veered back with
wind current in the opposite direction
to that which carried 1t away the occu-
pants waited until they were near the
air station and opened the valves Of
the balloon. They drifted down into a
field on what is known as Clements
Farm. about mile from the air station.
The occupants Of the ship Were fonrd
to be unhurt. The balloon was slightly
damaged. Naval officers declined 10
discuss the incident. but 1t is understood
that an official investigation viii be
ordered.
