LETTER FROM JAMES CONDOR
TO SALLY ATHERTON

Dear Sally: You'll be surprised, /
know, to get a letter from me, for
until now | have scrupulously kept
the vow l made to myself when
left you that morning at the train
some months ago.
At that time said to myself that
with the exception of bread and
butter letter \of the most conven-
tional kind would never write to
you or see you again if l could
help it.
You pretty thoroughly disillu-
stoned me, Sally, for you showed me
woman whose heart is always
ruled by her head, and do not like
that kind of woman. You did tell
me one or two truths of which ]
shall speak later, however.
i think l kept my vow. Indeed,
do not think l ever wrote you the
note l was supposed to write thank
ing you for your kindness to me
while in your. city. At that, l am
not sure you were very kind. You
spent most Of your time while was
there with John Prescott on the plea
that he was your boss and you had
some very important business with
him.
Of course you're not young and
inexperienced girl, Sally, but after
/ had gotten home l wondered if it
would not have been better both for
you and for me if / had told you
something that your husband told
me once. 1t was apropos to one of
our bosses being seen at dinner with
his stenographer at a well-known
cafe.
"Jimmies," he said, "some day
you're going to be boss of some
big business, and let old Sam give
you, piece of advice for you to
remember at that time. When that
day comes, never have any kind of
filtration or affair with any woman
in your office. If you must have a
stenographer on your personal staff,

:: The TQnqle :: =:

take your friends stenographer, not
your own. Taking a woman out Of
your office always gets both you
and the girl into trouble.
Don't you see, you can't dis
charge a woman for bad work or in
subordination in the office to whom
you have spoken words of love, and
| if she is crackerjack stenographer
you have to keep her on although
you have grown tired of her as a
sweetheart and it makes you sick to
see her around. 1t works out all
wrong both ways"
I've been wondering lately how it
is with you, Sally. ! hope you have
had sense enough to have nipped
any personal interest that John
Prescott seemed to be showing you,
in the bud.
l needn't tell you at this late day
that you are very fascinating wo-
wan, Sally You are always piquing
mans curiosity. He wants to eX-
plore both the recesses of your mind
and heart-and you like it, Sally,
| you hHO" yOu w. 1ou iCdu MN
You make him think he is just about
to solve the mystery, that unfath-
ENABLE feminine mystery which men
have tried to solve since Eve, and
which is still a mystery to them.
could see that John Prescott
was exceedingly interested in you,
and although you denied it to me, !
could see you were exceedingly in
terested in him, for otherwise you
would not have thrown me down to
make engagements with him.
| Sally, l am sure your love Of adj
venture will some time get you into
| trouble, and l expect what / am
writing to you is getting me into
trouble all right with you. You are
wondering why / am writing you
why, after vowing would never
write again, am going on in this
strain. 1t is because l have con-
fession to make, and being very
| happy at the present moment my
self, want you to be happy.

ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

Pretty soon the Sand Man and
the Twins came to the potato patch
in Squeejick Land.
The potatoes had grown to a ire
mendous size and their curiosity had
brought them to the top of the
ground which any farmer will tell
you is no place for potatoes at all.
Their eyes were wide open and
they blinked and winked as the
travellers came near.
Indeed they had seen them far
away and had whispered it to the
corn (Which was all ears, you may
be sure) and the corn had told the
cabbage heads who sent word to the
Squeejick King by the scarlet run
ner.
The Squeejick King sent back
word by his royal gardener for the
potatoes to keep their eyes wide
oren and to let him know if the
visitors came any nearer.
why, hello there!" exclaimed the
Sand Man to the Twins. "These are
fine potatoes, my dears! And no
wonder! Look What fine sand they
are growing I'M"
The potatoes winked and blinked
"Well have to tell the corn to tell
the cabbage to tell the scarlet run
ner to tell the king to send his SOL
diers right away" they whispered to
each other. Something is going to
happen"
The Sand Man decided that it was
time to get busy. So he said some
thing to Nancy and then he said
something more to Nick.
Before the watchful potatoes knew
what was happening, the Sand Man
and the Twins picked up some Of
the magic sand and threw It into
the potatoes eyes! In about two
shakes they were all sound asleep.
And being sound asleep they
couldn't tell the corn to tell the
cabbage to tell the scarlet runner to
tell the king to send his soldiers.
And so the Sand Man and the
Twins scooped up the rest of the
magic sand and put it into the Sand
Mans sack. And they started to
leave Squeejick Land for good.
But Squeejicks don't have rabbit
ears for nothing, and they all came
a running by the hundreds, all ex-
cept the First squeetfck, who was

PATRONS CONTINUE PROTEST

Patrons of the Richholt school backing petitions
addressed the school board requesting that change be
made in the grade arrangements at that school, They ask
that the seventh and eighth grades be retained at the Rich
holland William Moore and that two of the four teachers
Of seventh and eighth grades at the William Moore be trans
ered to the Roosevelt school that there might be estab
shed seventh and eighth grades in this school, thus giving
each of the schools mentioned the facilities.
1t stated editoraly in The Tribune when the board
announced that all seventh and eighth grades would be
grouped the Will school, that protest naturally would
from the patrons of the RchhOt and William Moore
schools Such protest is being expressed in uncertain
terms and hundreds of school patrons and tax
signing the petitions just 500 signed have seventh and
eighth grades at the Roosevelt which petitions have not been
granted.
Surely when taxpayers willing to sign and make a
formal request for seventh and eighth grades the ROose
welt, Richholt and William Moore and what is will
ing pay additional charge they should be given this
school service.
1t is not fair right that children from the outskirts
should be forced to walk miles school when they have
school facilities at their DOORS Property have
invested in homes with of certain school facilities
being available and the board to upset the
whole scheme and please
Surely it is time for of the school officials to heed
the taxpayers requests
