THE "HERALD'S
SHORT STORIES

Some readers of a newspa-
per prefer their fiction in a com
pleted form instead of weekly
installments of a serial, and
for those who have that pre-
ference The Herald" provides
good fiction in short form--not
more than two columns.
Some of the greatest stories,
ever written have been told in
a couple thousand words, and
while all short stories cannot
be masterpieces, those selected
by the Herald" fill all the re-
quirements necessary to a short
period of relaxation in the land
Of make-believe.
If you have not been reading
the short fiction in the HERALD
you have a pleasure yet to ex-
perience.

CAMPING EXPLOITS
OF CAMP FIRE GIRLS
First Day-W ednesday


nine o'clock and got there soon
after ten. The truck which
brought our provisions did not
get there until about three and
we were some hungry. After
dinner the girls went in SWIM
ing but did not stay long as the
water was very cold. When
the girls got dressed we went
for walk up the road and saw
the points Of interest. After
supper we stayed around camp
because it was raining.
Second Day-Thursday
Ruby Davis and Marjorie
Wilson were the cooks on this
day. They got up at four o.
clock and began to get break
fast. At six we were on our
way to the postoffice, which
was three NILES eroa1 camp,
AS we were some tired when
we got back we rested until af-
ter dinner, then we spent the
afternoon swimming and boat
ing. 1t rained all the evening
so we were oblidged to stay in
camp. Some of the girls tried
to sleep out of doors but the
midgets were so thick that they
had to give it up
Third Day-Friday
Dorothy Douglas and Ethel
Cole cooked the third day. We
were not obliged to get up so
early that morning. A crowd
of the girls walked to the post
office and those that stayed at
home spent the time reading
The afternoon was spent in
boating, hiking and reading.
After supper we sat on the
veranda and sang and later
went in and danced.
Fourth Day-Saturday
The fourth day, Gwendolyn
Davis and Mrs Thibadeau did
the cooking. The morning
was spent in hiking. In the
afternoon we had company
from home. We were glad to
see them and showed them all
the good points of the place.
In the evening we had a marsh
mallow toast on the beach and
danced in the camp after
wards.
Fifth Day-Sunday
The fifth day being Sunday,
we did not go anywhere. Ra-
mona Christie and Miss Forbes
were the cooks for the day.
The afternoon noon was spent
in entertaining company from
home. \
Sixth Day - Monday
Donna Fraiser and Ella May
Wilcox did the cooking on Mon
day. The day was spent about
the same as the rest, nothing
for excitement.
Seventh Day Tuesday
Tuesday, being the last day
we all made the best of it and
certainly had fine time doing
so. Some of the girls left ear
ly Tuesday evening and the
rest returned home after the
dance. Great time was had
by all and we look forward to
next year.
There are times that make you
happy,
There are times that make you
blue,
But the time when we break
up camping
Is the time that don't appeal
to you;
For we hate to leave the other
fellow,
And we hate to leave the dear
old Lake;
But we do it all without q
lnurmur
For Owensa's Sake.

Came for. Wonder

nEPAIRS on section OF Connection avenue
N just below the Bureau OF Standards are
nearing completion. Motorists in this neighbor-
hood are grateful They now encounter a few
hundred feet of decent roadway in the midst OF
OF the most volcanic stretches Of tar and rock
in the District. They have reason to hope that
the good work will be continued from time to
tme-that eventually ihe avenue viii be resur-
faced from the Zoo entrance to Chevy Chase
circle. Even il they enjoy the benefit ct
these improvements themselves their children or
grandchildren may.
But along the area that has been finished dur.
ing the past few weeks we have noticed peculiar
formation. 1t will be remembered that street rail-
way tracks in the middle OF the street at this
point-that vehicles on the way to Chevy Chase
keep side and cars coming toward Wash
ngton on the other. Now cement walls about
two inches high and FIVE inches thick have been
constructed along both sides next to the tracks.
These make it impossible for AN automobile to
venture on the car line. This is the peculiar for
nation to which we refer
Is it innovation in street construction? We
have noted the same sort of thing nowhere else
in the District just what is the purpose of these
walls? Does the traction company feel that its
precious rusty rails will be hurt by contact with
pneumatic tires? We have listened during the
past few days to the complaints of number OF
motorists from this section and have been urged
to place their case before the public. But are
puzzled We ignorant OF the purposes of
the innovation that We hesitate to condemn it be-
fore learning about it.
The automobilsts from Chevy Chase and way
stations declare that it is dangerous-particularly
at night. They cali attention to the fact that
street lighting in this section is very poor, that
the driver who has only dim lights will run up
against these walls in the darkness and lose a
wheel. 1t would be different if he expected some
thing OF that kind beside the tracks-but unless
he is familiar with the section he doesn't We are
in favor of streets divided by stretches Of green
lawn and shrubbery beside the tracks-such as
lower Pennsylvania man with ordi-
nary eyesight the walls of bushes the
darkest night But the eyesight must be keen in
deed if these abutments to be detected-espc-
ciay il the is moving at fair rate of speed.
The Chevy Chase motorists may be all
wrong. But would like to know why they are.
And might call their attention to the fact that
long District streets are cluttered up with
car tracks some inconvenience and some dangers
must be endured.

Emigration.

(ANADA is making determined and sincere
~ attempt to recruit her strength nation
with citizens of the right sort In this matter
all the British Dominons have a somewhat unfor-
tunate reputation to dsown, for in the years be-
fore the their immigration policies resulted
too often in attracting square pegs to INSULT
cheney of even round holes The complaints of
those who left Britain only to tramp the streets
of Toronto or Sydney to fail mserably on the
vast Dominion lands that await development em-
barrassed the governments of the Dominons and
embittered friends at home. Now there is once
more a boom in emigration. But this time the
lessons of the past have been learned, and well
come care is shown at both ends of what is the
most momentous journey, short of DEATH that a
man and his family can take, says the Manches-
ter Guardian. There is certain hope OF sue
cess in Canada for any who lack the physique and
spirit OF the pioneer. Strength, patience hardi-
hood fondness for life in the opcn a knowledge
OF nature and a zest for withstandng and subdu-
ing her-thcse the qualities should look
for in himself before he faces the solitude and
deal of emigration They are qualities which have
distinguished the people OF these islands in past
centuries Even now, when mainly in
dustria people, they are far from lacking. If the
prospective settler in. let say, British Columbia
is told that before lie can have his orchard and
his crops he must fell and blast away the roots
OF the giants of virgin forest and if the to
whom the praires a lure is properly told that
he and his folk must work unrcmittingly in
blizzard and drought. with nothing but the tele-
phone to link them with their nearest fellows.
thirty miles away. there will yet be men in
industrial Britain who will face these rgours with
confidence and
Nowhere is there keener consciousness in
national and local affairs than in the overseas
lands OF the British Commonwealth. Nowhere are
experiments in social reform more adventurously
tried out than in these lands. The carving out Of
primeval soil of home seems to encourage
also the vigorous fashoning of ideals. The men
who turn forests into fruit farms seem to have
developed excellent impatience with the dead
growth of injustces that encumbers the social sys-
TENS OF older lands. For the temper and
physique that respond to the call of a rigorous
life and free play OF political ideas there is
ample hope in the Domnions. and, fortunately for
the happiness Of the emgrant, public authorities
on both sides OF the ocean, and men who care for
the Commonwealth do those whom we report
today at last taking pains to see that the
chance which emigration offers is held out only to
the who benefit by it.

they consider it the proper thing-not because
they think the eleven has any chance to win.
This Is not a healthy sort OF enthusiasm. 1t is
not good for Georgetown. A victory means no
