What's playing 'possum?"
Well, I'll tell you about the time
saw an opossum playing the
trick we call playing 'possum."
We were walking through the
woods one day, and we hadn't
seen anything very exciting. You
know, Bobby, Bunny and I
usually have adventures when we
go to the woods, but this day we
had not had the least little ad-
venture.
Just as we were starting home
Bobby came running to me,
shouting:

little animal! What Is it, Foxy

"I guess he's dead, all right"
1 said sadly.
Poor little fellow! / wonder
what happened to him?" Bobby
said tearfully.
So interested was Bobby in the
little furry fellow that he leaned
down to examine him. He
touched the soft fur. Then he
took one leg and tried to turn
him over. The opossum didn't
move.
Lets take him home and skin
him." suggested Bobby.
He certainly has a pretty fur

Mary decision to tell Cappy

not so much from fear Of what
her father might say as from a
desire to enlist the aid OF her
old-time friend and thus fortify
herself with a power behind the
throne.
Mary was shrewd; she knew
the elder Skinner too well to dash
in with bald avowal that she
was going to marry Bill Peck.
There are ways Of doing things,
and Mary chose the one which
would be attended with the least
friction.

THE MAN AND
THE HOME
BY LOrettO C. Lynch
An Authority on All Matters
Relating to Household
Management.
SUPERIOR officer the other

A SUPERIOR officer the other
~ day repriT1landed a police
4 n officer who was off duty
eating in restaurant. The officer
explained that his wife was Ill
that morning and could not get
breakfast for him at home. And
the man passing Judgment on the
case very properly said that a
man should be able to get his
own breakfast in an emergency.
1t is a peculiar reflection upon
the ideas of home-making that a
number of men whom 1 have
asked have said: well, what do
you women want-want a man to
get out and make a living, and
then come home and do YOUR
work, toQ?"
That attitude may not have
disastrous results in the homes
of the well-to-do, but surely in
the home of modest means it
tends toward ruin. When a
woman gives up even a small job
in the work -a-day world to marry
and make a home, shouldn't the
pride and pleasure incident to
homemaking be mutual?
Is a man less a man because
his good mate has taken a little
time to show him where the
coffee is kept and just how to
make a cup of the refreshing
beverage and a slice or two of
toast? Is he less the head of his
home If he knows how long to
boil an egg?
Personally 1 believe a man who
works hard all day has every
right to expect that he be sent
off in the morning with a warm
and nourishing breakfast. think
that under ordinary circumstances
he ought to expect an appetizing
meal in the evening upon his re-
turn. But how about an emer-
gency?
Should our form of education
leave man so helpless that be-
cause he knows so little about
how to keep the home fires burn
ing while his wife is, for In
stance, at the hospital, that he
has to HE himself home to his
mothers house for his meals and
actually shut up his home in an
emergency? What do my readers
think? Is home-making a CO.
operative job or is 1t exclusively
a woman's job?

IF her father had looked out
of the window he would have
seen Mary driving the young
man out of the yard and his
anger would have been further
increased.
They made their way to a
fashionable restaurant known as
the Poulet dor. 1t was an ad.
venture for Mary. Somehow Mr..
Peck had a masterful way with
him that reminded her of her
father; he was not like the other
men she knew. She wondered
as they entered the restaurant
how he would manage to secure
o table. But it seemed quite
easy for Bill; the head waiter
was obsequious, only he gave
them a place where the traffic
was thIckest.
why not that table in the
alcove?" suggested Mr.. Peck.
1T is reserved said the
waiter. A sign to that effect
stood against a caraffe in its
center.
Mr.. Peck removed the card to
the less desirable table and
motioned Mary to a seat; the
waiter hefnmed and hesitated,
and finally vanished. Mary was
amused; Bill was certainly a go
getter. It didn't matter whether
it was a consignment of skunk
spruce of q meal. She hadn't
gotten so far as to wonder
whether he might not apply the
same tactics to herself. But she
was to find out before the meal
was over.
It was close to o'clock when
the couple came into the PouIet
dor. It was long after 4 when
they left; and Mary. who had

ON TUESDAY, JAN. 22
Other State Officials Sworn in the
Day Previous.

Jackson.-There still appears to be
some confusion of ideas regarding the
date when the new governor-elect
and state officers will go into office.
Gov. Whitfield will not be inaugur-
ated until Tuesday, jan o. Lieut..
Gov. Murphree will not assume the
gavel as presiding officer of the Sen
ate until Monday Jan. 81, Lieut.. Gov.
Casteel presiding up to that time.
All other state officers will also go
into office on Monday, Jan. %. The
dates for the governors inaugura-
ton and qualification of state Off
GERS vary according to the meeting
date of the legislature. This year
the legislature meets on JAN s, the
latest date upon which it can fall, it
being fixed for Tuesday after the first
Monday in January. The legislature
is convened at noon sharp and the
time of the first day is usually taken
up in the election of a speaker and
employees, etc On the day following
the election of the speaker, the sec
retary OF state will deliver to him the
sealed returns of the general cleo
ton for state officers, and on the
Tuesday following his receipt of the
returns, which will be Jan. Is, the
speaker opens them in the presence
of the house of representatives and
they are canvassed and the results
announced. Then on the Monday fol
lowing the announcement of the re,
suits, all state officers, except the
governor, qualify and take the oath OF
office. The governor is to take the
oath of office. The governor is to take
the oath on Tuesday following, which
will be Jan. %, in the presence OF
the two houses in joint session, ad
ministered to him by the chief jus
tice of the supreme court or one Of
the associate justices. The legisla
ture will therefore be in session fol
two weeks before it will receive the
