A conservative is man who is
either wise or coward, all accord

Being afraid to live is often called
prudence.
Absence frequently has a ten

1t is sad to hear that Haddon
hall, the Duke of Rutland's beau
tiful seat in Derbyshire. will no
longer be open to the public.
Standing on a slope above the
River Wye, this noble house has
been for half century a magnet
drawing visitors from all parts of
the world. 1t was first built in
Norman times, and various owners
added to 1t until the days Of Eliza
beth, since when little change has
taken place in its architecture.
Had~Jn hall contained precious
works Of art, and its lovely gar
dens have been praised. by many
writer's OF renOwn.
But perhaps the story which has
fixed Haddon hall in the minds OF
most people is the tale of the beau

height of a nights festivities, cast
her cloak over her shoulders and
ran to the postern gate to meet her
lover and fly with him in his coach
to her wedding at Gretna Green.

ADVENTURE OF

BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

This is the rest Of the story about

Just because it had seen a picture

notion that it wanted adventures!
Well-after everybody and every
thing had run away from it except

kept on going and going and flashing

pot eyes.
But one of the eyes rolling side

"Pm very comfortable"
"Aren't you afraid?" asked the
dragon in surprise and blowing all

like three furnaces.
"Nope," said the frog. "I'm only
afraid of owls and pussy cats"
"Snort! Snort!" went the dragon.
"But l can cook you with one blow"
ooh, go on" said the frog. "I'm
all wet and I'm cold-blooded as we'll.

Afterward bandages were wrapped
