THE ROBINS SONG.

Little Robin Redbreast
Sat upon tree
And sang the very sweetest
Melodies to me.
He seemed to chant Of Summertime
And warbling birds and flowers,
OF babbling brooks and shady hooks
And Summers sunny hours
OF new-mown hay, Of picnics gay
And rambling DER the lea;
Oh, everything just seemed so real
1t cheered the heart of me.
So, little Robin Redbreast,
Come soon again and sing,
For what sense of pleasure
Your joyous lay doth bring.
w H Dreaming.

Out in the
Storm
Y W. =

WOHNTIE GARRETSON lived with
:. his grandfather and parents and
little sister. 10 years old. in a yel-
low frame cottage on an island.
Johntie's grandfather had bought this
island for small sum of money many
years ago, and he had cultivated the
land and had cut down trees and had
added more room to the original, tiny
cabin he had first built when he and
his young wife went there to live, and
now there was a roomy cottage and a
substantial barn.
In fact when Johntie's father had
grown up and married, the island was
in very hourishing condition; when
town folks would row the half mile
across the river to come and visit them,
and would ask them if tLey were not
longing TO tome and live in the So
cisble town
They always received the same an
swer NO, we are not lonely here and
we love our island dearly. We can
raise our own vegetables. fruits and
poultry, and as for FISH, all we have 10
do is TO cast either our nets or lines in
the river and we can catch in a short
time all we can eat. besides having
plenty to bring over TO the town folks
to sell We are satisfied here, and we
will never need to fear poverty as long
as we remain here
Johntie had a rowboat of his own
which his father had made for him and
given to him on his twelfth birthday
saying, 'Now Johntie, that your arms
have grown so strong. you can row
this boat over to the town wharf every
morning and attend school and row
back to the island in the afternoons,
and I won't need to stop my work any
more so that you can get an educa-
ton"
And Johntie learned to be very

they played tag under the trees,
mother hiding and Mollie catching her.
and Mollie hiding and mother doing
the catching 1t was the greatest fun
and Mollic ran until she was warm and
covered with perspiration, and her
mother was breathing hard. Then they
both ran TO the house.
Now, dear" said mother, rush into
the bathroom as fast as you can and
Mary will have a tub of warm water
ready for you and help you take your
bath. Then lie down until it is time
to get ready for dinner. and | hope
you will sleep little Bit
Mollie took her bath and lay down
and thought what a beautiful world il
is when il rains, for she never felt so
happy in her life She drifted of into
dreamland a little bit and then Mary
came TO help her dress, and they chat
ted together. and Mollie put on one of
her prettiest dresses.
Such a dull day for little daugh-
ter" father said when he came in, but
Mollie declared that she had never had
such lovely time as she had this aft
ernoon. and she told father all about
the game in the rain.
Mother is big baby. too,- father
said, as he put an arm around each of
them and led the way to the dining
room.

CAPT. DA'NCEEY GIVES TALK TO
 JUNEAU i! SCHOOL SCI
Tells Some Unwritten History of World War-Tells
 of His Escape.

There was good representation of citizens at the High School this morning. when Captain s. N. Dancey again addressed the pupils. Among those in attendance were Governor Bone and Mrs. Bone.
 The inside. story. of the war was told with facts and figures and the whole builded on personal incident. Captain Dancey discussed every branch of the sexvice. carefully re vealing how Superiority passed from the hands of the Germans into the keeping of the Allied armies.
 Thrilling, indeed, was the story or how Gallieni saved Paris with his motor army "The Germans had only one opportunity of reaching Paris and that was in 1914. when they had their maximum strength and the Al lies their minimum" said the speak CT. "It was impossible to anticipate that the Germans could capture Paris in 1918 when the Allies had reached their maximum strength and the strength of the Germans was fast di- minishing. It is more than passing strange that, while. in their big drive on Paris in 1918, the Germans were so jubilant. and the world was ,so anxious, Marshal. Foch was sitting back in his orderly room laughing as hard as he could laugh. The Ger mans were carrying out his plans right to the detail and only one CT TOT was made. They were allowed; to cross the river Marne at Dormafs, but. fortunately, they were soon drlv- en back" .,-....... ,}
 Comparative figures between 1914 and 1918 were set on the board in an effort to meet the argument that the Prussian military machine was tHe ereatest~~machine in the history or the world q grant that up to cor tain moment" added Captain Dancey But the fact that the Germans, for more than 40 years had been prepar- ing for the great war and that the Allies were wholly unprepared and the fact that the Allies were able to hold the Germans in check for taree years and build ,ppi "a machine that in every bpanch, was the superior of the German machine, that, in my estimation was the wonder of the war" Most of his work was done on. the black board. special facilities having been afforded for the orca- sion Qhestion. period lbronght ou' some, interesting Information and, taken ,all, in all. it was morning or intense usefulness to-the students of the school as well as being of great interest to the citizens in general, It was information that could never be obtained in books or press, but in formation that holds great svaluei in the study of the wars history:
 The story of how he escaped from German prison camp was~told by Captain. Dancey in the last period. This is the same story. -that, appeared in the Saturday Evening Post at the time. It was tale of absorbing in terest and. naturally, aroused keen enthusiasm

Look After Garden
Problem This Week

We gave very timely article in
the farm news on preparing and
Planting Rose Garden" prepared
by the County Agent. This week
this same writer has something to
say about the vegetable garden, a
garden that not only should be
made beautiful, but very profitable.
What he has to say is as follows:
''The home vegetable garden is
the pride of most farm and home
women and few men. We all like
to see fine garden, whether or not
we all enjoy working in one.
The success of a spring and sum-
mer garden depends largely on the
earliness and succession of planting.
Many of the garden crops require
early planting to come in during
proper season. The usual draw back
to early planting is lack of working
weather to do spring preparation.
To be on time with all paintings this
good preparation should be done in
the fall and before November 18th,
for after the 18th the chances for
having dry blowing weather are
few. Take up the bean poles and to-
