him in surprise. Then he remembered
where he was. He was visiting on
the farm with his Uncle Ned.
He put on his nice hiking suit and
went downstairs. Breakfast wasn't
quite ready, so Uncle Ned told Billy
he might take look around the
farm.
Billy went out to the barnyard. He
was leaning over the fence watching
the funny fat pigs. when a strange
voice called, Hello there. city dude!'
Billy looked up in surprise. tall
farmer boy in ragged overalls stood
staring at him from the nearby road.

Distorp of Dour Same
BY PHILIP FRANCIS NOwLAN.
LESLIE
RACIAL ORIGIN-Scottish,
SOURCE-A locality.

The family name of Leslie is a clan
name Of the Scottish Highlands. but il
originated far from the Highlands, in
Hungary.
The story Of the wanderings of the
original Leslie, in the eleventh century,
from his own barony beyond the Hun
garian frontier, through the numerous
small and violent political units into
which Europe was divided in those days,
to the coast Of Flanders, followed by his
embarkation for Scotland and final es-
tablishment in the favor of the Scottish
king, must have made striking rom
ance. Unfortunately only these meager
facts have been preserved.
Bartholomew de Leslyn came to Sco.-
land from Flanders, using as his sur
name the name of the fortress in Huh
gary over which he had been overload
1t was Malcolm de Leslie" a de-
scendant, who founded the Highland clan
bearing that name. This Malcolm had
retained the honors won by his father
at the court Of the Scottish kings, and
had added to them. Many of the High
land clans were thus founded by for
eigners," who gathered about them fol-
lowers Of Gaelic blood. and who usually
ended, as was the case in Ireland, by
becoming moro Gaelic than the Gaels
themselves.
The clan lands in Rothes Ballen-
breich and Fife were acquired in the
thirteenth century by marriage.

Boxer touched them they hurt more
than ever. But Boxer knew that he
must get them out. Common sense
told him that. He knew that he
couldn't put that paw to the ground
with those things sticking in it. So
he got hold of one with his teeth

it was DONE chuckled Prickly Porky.
All this time Woof Woof, Boxers

she. Eyes, sir; it serves you just

Boxer was in a bad temper, a very
bad temper, by the time he was ready
to limp along up the Lone Little Path.
In fact, he was in a bad temper all
the rest of that day. In fact, that
bad temper lasted for two or three
days, for that paw continued TO be
sore. He was in such a bad temper
that Woof Woof took care not to go
very near him.
So it happened that on the third
day Boxer was by himself when he
met Jimmy Skunk. Now no one
could look more innocent and harm
less than did Jimmy Skunk. Jimmy
came ambling along, attending strict

running at sight of Boxer, he acted
