of Mark Page was stripped of its five
tires and other tools.
1t is thought the dirty work
done by some local party, they
doubt knew exactly where the Ford was
kept The matter is being thoroughly
Investigated and it is thought the mys-
FERROUS party may be brought to light
SQUIRRELS on the golf links at Carleton
Place. Ont. have been stealing golf balls and
caching them in hollow trees. They must have
heard someone talking about golf nuts.
+ THE Peoples Pulpit objects because
Sammy RzeSchewsk is designated the 9-year-
old Polish chess player" when. matter of

GOING TO SLEEP.
but maybe if just lie real quiet and still, I'll
drop off to- sleep before 1 know it. Gee, it sure

Wonder why Edison doesn't turn his mind

them, and then I'd get my picture in the pa
pers never will do it in beauty contest.
Oh, just must turn over, believe I'll turn
this pillow, too, it's SO hot on this side. Pound
pound.
Well. that's better, maybe 1 will fall asleep
pretty soon.
Oh yes as was thinking to myself. could |
make up that formula and put some perfume |
in it and say! that would be grand. The WON
en- could use it instead of regular perfume and |
still it would keep the mosquitoes away Mos |
quitoes are hard white stockings anyway |
Scratch. Scratch. My ankles sure do get bit |
ten up.
Turn over.
What was that noise? Well maybe it
wasn't really anything. I'm sure 1 locked all !
The doors and 1 know I looked twice to see
L I'd locked the door to my room. OF course I
HAVE to leave the windows open for air, and
the worst comes to the worst they'll come
n the windows, but I surely could see their
shadows before thew in ali
pretty loud. Glad I've taken singing lessons.
