A school teacher recently put
the question to a class in the
Third grade, as to how many
seasons there We're in year.
A small boy with. a keenly devel-
oped commercial mind and I'M
doubtedly destined to be mer-
chant prince promptly replied
that there were two, "the busy
season and the dull season"
AS we are now on the thresh-
old of the so-called dull season
we might well determine to
speed up our efforts rather than
relax, bearing in mind that apt
Fable which runs as follows:
"a naturalist divided an a.
Quarium with a clear glass par
tition. He put lusty bass in one
section and minnows in the 9TH
er.
The bass struck every time a
minow approached the glass par
tition. After three days of fruit
less lunging, which netted him
only bruises, he ceased his eff
forts and subsisted on the food
that was dropped in for him,
Then the Naturalist removed
the glass partition. The min
nows swan all around the bass
but he did not strike at a single
one. He had been thoroughly

AS the reader stands shading his
eyes and looking at an airplane roar
ing athwart the sky, he sometimes
envies the navigators their freedom.
No rocks, no shores, no impediments,
nothing to obstruct the gaze save the
vaporous clouds, no foe save the
winds and the invisible brake of
gravity. At last. freedom!
The uplooker from below never
realizes that this airship commits
trespass over every holding of land
below it, that its owner and operator
might successfully be sued for tres
pass by every landowner thus in
jured, and that such trespass might
be enjoined by action in court if all
the landowners were to combine to
stop It.
Aerial navigation might be pro-
hibited by landowners!

wonder if some one in the Ameri-

true or not, its committee on 4 uni

bill which, among other things, Is
meant to keep any future Craighead

ton. It proposes to have all States
pass a law making the ownership of
lands subject to the right Of avia-

It won't do. gentlemen! Such a law
would be unconstitutional. It would
deprive us landowners of our right

Through an early marriage, Lester

pictures for a living, hopes to bridge
the golden gulf of wealth which
stands between him and Dellora An

That's why the ceremony will be
performed early next spring, instead
of waiting several more years, until
Lucky Les" as the townsfolk here
call him, can advance sufficiently in
his art work to enjoy an increase in

Asked how it feels to be engaged
to the worlds richest girl, the
youngster declared that a love such
as theirs should no longer be per-
mitted to further brave the perils
and barriers of money.
Other fellows with girls they are
planning to marry, should feel happy

said.

You have probably already bought Christmas pres
ent for your wife, but here is simple little suggestion
for another present which will not only increase the hap
pness of your home Christmas morning, but will be
gratefully remembered throughout the year. 1t will
probably cost you nothing, but it will make her happy
because it is an act of thoughtfulness.
After you have given her the big present tell her that
you have little surprise for her Tell her that you
want to her relieved of the drudgery of wash day
Tell her that you have your way about it next year she
won't have the nuisance and expense of aUndress in
the home, won't have to worry if the laundress is
going to show up
Ask her to plan next year sending her clothes to
thelaundry which will bring them back to her fresh and
clean, without fuss work worry and which in the
end will save money.
Suggest to her that she should pick the laundry she
wants and call them up the morning after Christmas
If you don't agree that this will make her happy try
putting yourself in her place. Just stay home some
wash day and see for yourself No can do that
without wondering how his wife has stood as long
as she has. Call any laundry for rates.
