THE WHITE DESERT"

 ''The White Desert" sounds unusual and it is unusual, in theme, in ac- tion. in characterization and in To- cale. For the "desert" is not one of sand and arroya. but of the bleak white stretches atop the Continental

VACATION DAYS

 Where the spreading willows stand on tho low and marshy land And the stream flows through its
 twisting, winding bed. There love to lie and sleep In tho grass go cool and deep. With the willow branches waving
 o'er my head.
 In vacations happy hours All the woods are full of flowers, And the shadows of the trees are
 cool and dark.
 When the sky Is blue and clear If you listen you will hear The warbling of tiny meadow lark. In the woods the partridge drums when the glad vacation comes, And the poplars and the willows
 bend and sway.
 They are calling me to lie v'hero the summer breezes sigh By the brook that flows and mur-

 Some wit has divided society into two classes:

 This Is q mistake; the true classifi- enticn should be:

 pr. Mackey. young, buoyant, ener- getic, not oontent with being merely Irish, proudly tells you that he Is Scotch Irish:" from Ulster, born in Belfast, if you please; that part of Ireland where so many southern peo- pie point with pride to lines of worthy ancestors.
 When pr. Mackey was asked to express. his views briefly on the IT. fish situation, which isn't the sub 1ect of this story-not at all--he said tersely:

But through his love for little girl of tho hills.

It Is big story of big-hearted people In a big coun-

completely left him and he gets perfect
rest. and / can truthfully say that he
feels one hundred per cent better than
before taking NORMA. Mr.. Rinhart
was advised 70 stop work and was
confined to his home and now can go
