Fairfield, Me, Oct. GA rare dis =
tinction in literary work has come to
a Fairfield young woman, Miss Kath-
arine Hatch. who has recently had a
one act play, "Off with His Head
accepted by. the Walter H. Baker Co.
The play, which is based entirely
upon LATIN and English construction,
is most cleveriy arranged. 1t was
successfully presented under the di-
rection of Miss Hatch. when she was
member of the Beverly (Mass) }.
High school faculty. One of her Latin
classes gave the play at the school
auditorium for the enjoyment of their
friends and relatives 1t was most
highly commented upon and the idea
of putting it into book form came to
Miss Hatch at this time.
Miss Hatch Is the daughter of Mrs.
Cora Curtis Hatch. Newhall street,
this city. Her father was the late
Prof. Hugh Ross Hatch a late mem
Der OF the Colby college faculty. Miss
Hatch attended Colby college and
graduated in the class of 1919. She
taught first and second year Latin
at the Beverly High school and is
now In New York City.
The cast Of characters are all plays
on Latin construction and the whole
play Is written in a breezy. natural
manner. This Is Miss Hatciss FIRST
serious endeavor in this line.

rooms on the two floors above:

who could not find accommodations

she broke off suddenly as IL she had
seen a ghost. as Mary came across
the sands toward the group.
My dear!" Vera ran to embrace
the newcomer. I'm SO delighted to

LESSON NO.
THE PROPER USE OF LIGHT
HOW WE SEE

our eyes until they cannot do their
work without help.
DECORATE WITH LIGHT
Up to this point we have
thought of lighting only rs it helps
us to see easily-in other words,
as it is useful. OF course, this is
very important in every room in
the home, and everywhere else.
But when we light our home, We
want the lighting to make each
room pleasant and attractive, and
our lighting, except for the work
rooms (thc kitchen, the laundry,
tho basement and attic), should be
as much of a decoration or orna.
ment cs the pictures and rugs and
curtains.
Lighting equipment may be or.
namental and decorative, and at
the same time it can be made in
such a way that it will properly
light the room. Much Of the light.
| ing equipment in use today can be
| greatly improved by using shades
that are longer, SO that the bulb
is completely hidden from the eye
and denser, so that no extremely
bright spot appears in the center Of
them.
A FEW CAUTIONS
Here are a few cautions that
will help you protect your eyes:
| Don't Judge the amount of light
in a room by the brightness of the
bare, unshaded bulbs. That is the
indication Of glare.
Don't expose your eyes to IN.
shaded lights. That may cause eye
strain.
Don't read while facing q bright
light or o sunny window. Have
the light come from beside you Or
over your shoulder.
| Don't use bright lights against
dark background.
Don't try to read in a dim light
that tires your eyes.
| Don't let your lighting equip.
ment get dirty. Clean it regularly.
Dust and dirt may cause you to
lose as much as one-half or even
three-fifths of the light that the
bulbs produce and that you arc
paying for.
Don't depend on taking out light
bulbs to connect appliances ana
portable lamps. Have convenlencs
outlets put in for this purpose.
Don't be Indifferent to the pres
crvation of your eyesight.

Vera. She's determined to marry
him, evidently. I'm afraid it was a
great shock to her when she lost
Bruce Gillian; Of course she says
that she broke tho engagement be-
cause she found that he bored her
to tears. but everyone has been
sure that it was because he really
vas in love with you, and Of course
since this story about you and Nigel
and Bruce came out"
Yes. OF course" Mary inter
rupted. Fond though she was of
Vera, she had no intention Of gossip
ping with her.
Now that she had actually re-
turned to her old world she found
the prospect Of carrying out her
plans even more difficult than il
had seemed before. How they woult
stare and talk, what an avalanche
she would bring down upon her
head. The secret that she had
guarded so carefully would be
thrown down before all these people
would she have any friends left
among them?
She remained on the beach long
enough to chat with those whom
she knew, and then went back te
the club and the room that had beer
assigned her. to dress for dinner
She paused at the door of Camilla 4
suite to leave a note with the maid
asking Camilla II she might see hel
privately as soon as possible. and
then went on to her own room
eager for the respite that she sc
bitterly nee6ed. II only she could
see Camilla at once. and settle
everything without further delay!
