DR.. BARTON'S
DAILY LETTER
ABOUT EARTHS SHAPE
By DIR. William E. Barton.

1t is related, and therefore may be
true, that a small boy, who had not
made a brilliant success of rccitations
in geography, came to his written eX-
animation, and confronted the ques-
ton, "What is the shape of the
earth?" He could not recall the an
swer that was in the book, but re-
membcred more or less indistinctly
some things which he had heard, and
so wrote his answer:
"The earth is in bad shape"
That answer should have given
him a passing mark on his entire pa
per.
The earth is in bad shape. Those
people who regard it as flat are
troubled by its inequalities of sur
face, and those who regard it as
round are compelled to admit thai
it is flattened at the poles, and that
it wobbles at an absurd angle as it
makes its daily revolution upon its
own unsteady axis, and manifests no
little cccentricity in its annual jour
ney around the sun.
Even this is not the whole story.
The human part of it is badly out of
adjustment, Most of the people in
the world-except ourselves - are
misbehaving more or less; and the
more we know about ourselves the
less certain we are that we also arc
not in bad shape.
Nevertheless | am unwilling that

But what? Are you going to
spoil it all by telling Dot that the
engine didn't really break DOWN."
I'm afraid it would end our
friendship if | did"
1T might cause some trouble for
You with Dot, too"
What do you mean?
I'D hint that you were a fellow
Conspirator. You know you did agree
very readily to the suggestion of
George going back with Dot instead
of you. Why, | believe it was you
who suggested it,
1T wasn't 1t was Dot herselfn
But how readily you fell in with
the idea. Really now, you didn't find
the prospect of a ride back with me
so very appalling did you?"
We're talking nonsense. I'm too

cident was only a fake, but | would
appreciate it. I certainly would. if
YOU wouldn't put me in positions

At the monthly meeting of the

This was fit compliment for her
splendid service.
Shortly after noon yesterday Mr.,
Dave Wingate and negro named
Dave Roberts met on the Watts cor
ner Dave was drunk and began to
give Mr.. Wingate some slack, when
that gentleman promptly gave the
gay and festive David one over the
head with a two gallon jug, filled
with syrup, which he had in hand at
the time. The jug broke and a con-
glomeration of syrup and blood ran
down the negro's face. Dave dried
his mouth Immediately.
