the truth Of the matter is it isn't SAT
for US to work so far from the wa
ter. OF course, one could keep watch
while the other works. But even then
we would be in danger. If only
those trees grew a little nearer the
water we would be all right"
Well. my dear" replied Mrs. Paddy,
Il don't see that there is anything
for us to do but to make those trees
grow little nearer the water"
Paddy grinned goodnaturedly. 81

that we might dig a canal up to those
trees. Unfortunately. we can't do it.
/ had thought Of that and looked the
ground all over. II the ground was
fiat and low there We might do it.
But it is uphill all the way from the
edge of our pond to those trees, so
a canal is out of the question"
Don't you suppose ] known? re-
torted Mrs Paddy. You must think
me stupid If you think l hadn't dis
covered that. Why not make the
pond bigger. my dear? 1 really think
the pond ought to be deeper anyway.
If the ice should become very thick
too much water left under it and
some of our food supply might get
frozen in. If we make the pond
deeper it will also become bigger
and the water will get nearer to
those trees we have got to cut"
Paddy rubbed his nose thought
fully. That is true. said he. II
suppose you are limiting that we
should go to work at once and make
our dam bigger" Paddy sighed at
the thought.
Mrs. Paddy nodded her brown head.
That is just it, said she. I've
thought of this matter for a long
time, and I've looked that dam all
over. 1t will not require great
amount of work to make this pond
considerably bigger. Let's go over
to the dam and take a look at it.
All 1t means is a little more work,
and neither of US is afraid of work
Come on, Paddy"
She dived into the water and be-
gan swimming toward the dam. Pad

moment. Then he. too, dived into

HOW 1T STARTED
The Merry..Go- Round.
BY JEAN NEWTON.

The merry-go-round, or. properly
called, the carrousel, at which chill
dren, and sometimes grown-ups. dis
port in glee. is an object lesson in
survivals OF old institutions whose
origins throw an interesting side
light on many phases Of history. In
all its details, from the elaborate
trappings of the wooden steeds to
the brass ring, whose capture means
free ride, the merry go-round is
an inanimate counterpart of a very
live and important proceeding of
bygone day.
The merry go-round had its origin
in the old "carrousel," a knightly ex-
ercise which as late as the begin
ming of the eighteenth century was
common at all the courts of Europe.
The carrousel was an imitation of
the older tournaments with all their
gorgeous appointments and elabor-
ate display, with prancing chargers
aid fitting knights-only the sword
blades were of whalebone or silvered
parchment, the helmets of leather
and the shields light. The carrousels
held at the French court in the sew
enteenth century are a matter of
history.
Only royalty. of course. could afford
such entertainment, and. as usual,
the common people looked about for
substitute. 1t appeared in the form
of the modern merry go-round,
wooden platform with handsome and
mail-clad steeds who pranced about
in circle, making the rider feel
no less than a valiant knight on a
true charger. In the early days the
platforms had to be turned by human
power or horses, the smoothly glid-
ing electrically run contraption with
which we are familiar being the
modern development.
In the catching of rings, which is
one of the great thrills Of the ride
on the carrousel today, we have an
untarnished survival of the original
tournament-carrou where to ex-
| hibt their prowess the knights, rid
ing by. would carry off on a sword
a whole line of rings suspended for
the purpose.
1t was toward the end of the sew
enteenth century that the platform
carrouSel found its way from France
TO England; and as early as 1929.
in the London Daily Post OF August

Let's choose hands as a starting
point for a. detailed course in beauty
culture, as my correspondent sug-
gests. What do you need to keep the
hands looking well. no matter what
work they do?
First patience. 1t will take
month. of daily care before the nails
look really well kept. But once
you've made them really nice, they
will stand little neglect now and
then without looking too badly. For
cosmetics, you must have something

the cream in separate pot, about
a tablespoonful Cor the same amount
of petroleum jelly), add the rouge
until it's a light red color. This is
to rub into the nails to tint them.

Best Shoe for Every Day.

Calfskin is one of the best leath
ers for a practical, everyday shoe.
We usually think of il as heavier
than kid, but. rs a matter of fact.
it comes in all weights, from very
light t0~the heavy.
Calfskin scuffs less readily than
any other leather. 1t is not so pill
able as some others, but for that
very reason it keeps it's shape bet
ter under hard walking. Because it
takes a high polish as well as a
dull velvety finish it can be kept in
better condition than most other
feathers. a point of no little impor-
lance in its favor when buying a
pair of shoes that have to be worn
to and from work. day in and day
out, in all kinds of weather.
The objection to calfskins. espe-
cially the heavier ones, is that they
are hot, infiexible. and hard on ten
der feet. But it is true that if you
get a shoe in the higher grades of
calfskin. they are not only durable.
resistent to water. and strong, but
they are also quite pliable, and of fine
texture and grain as we'll.
Some of our everyday shoes are
made up in kidskin in it's heavier
qualities. This makes a lighter shoe
than a calfskin, with great softness
and pliability. Kidskin tops are
sometimes made up with calfskin
lowers.
Another very durable material for
shoes is side leather" This is cow
hide. and simply means that the
leather was taken from the side of
the animal. OF course it does not
have the beauty of a fine calf or
kidskin, but it has wearing quality

Sive.
Buckskin makes very cookbook
ing. as well as a practical and dur
able shoe. Many shoppers find 1t
difficult to distinguish buckskin from
suede. which 1t resembles greatly in
appearance. but it is very important
to make the distinction, as buckskin
is much firmer and more durable, and
consequently better buy where
service is a consideration.
When buckskin is genuine, it is.
of course, made from the hide of
the deer, but generally it is buffed
finished cowhide, or sometimes calf
skin. Buffing means that a thin lay

1t is usually white or grayish in
color.
The fundamental difference be-
tween buckskin and suede is that it
is buffed on the strong grain side of
the leather, whereas suede is finish
ed on the soft and less-endurng
flesh side. You can tell buckskin
because it is heavier than suede. and
has a more compact but not such a
thick nap. Suede shoes are very

Invariably this utter WEAKNESS

wear! "SA0ts9" you say. Yes,
and this is how:
Ordinary shoes, with their
cruel, unnatural lines, distort the
bones and torture the muscles
ofyour feet. They force you to
toe OUT when walking, which
places undue strain on certain
leg muscles. This brings about
the dinner-time feeling of phys
ical exhaustion that has denied
you the benefit and recreation
of evening pleasures.
In addition, the stiff, unyield-
ing arches of ordinary shoes
cramp the arch muscles of your
feet, impeding the blood circu-
lation throughout your entire
body, depriving the nerve cen
tiers of their normalnourishment
and causing you to become

THREE DROWN
IN SLOUGH

and browne d

kinbrae, Mimi, Nov. 15.-Thrce
children-two brothers and their
cousinwere drowned in Il slough on
which they went skating after school
hours here yesterday.
The dead: William, aged s. and
Albert, aged 6, sons of Mr.. and Mrs
Otto Mojia, farmers near here. Dale
Mojia, aged 6, cousin to William and
Albert, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Adolph
Mojia, farmers, near here.
No Witnesses to Drownings
The drownings occurred when the
children skatcd out to the center of
the slough, where they encountered
thin ice. There were no other per-
sons nearby at the time.
When the children did not return
home for supper, their parents start
ed search for them and dragged
the slough when the youngsters caps
were found on the bank of the pond.
The drownings occurred at about 5
p. M, it is believed. Fishermen. who
were procured to drag the lake, found
the bodies shortly before eight
O'Clock tonight.
Parents Husking Corn
The children decided to go skating,
when. after returning home. they
found their parents were out husk-
ing corn. The trio then took their
skates and went to the slough To play
until supper time. 1t was when the
parents returned and found the chill
dren absent that a search was begun.
Adolph Mojia and Otto Mojia are
farmers residing about one half mile
east of here. Dale was an only son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Adolph Mojia. Will
liam and Albert are survived, be-
sides their parents, by two other
children.
The bodies of the children are at
their homes. Arrangements for the
funerals have not yet been made.
