A Bears Story Verna Wills

One day I was around a curve eating blue berries. 1 was just stuffing myself with the blue berries.
 All of a sudden I heard a noise. 1 turned around. It was a queer animal. 1t was walking on it's back paws He had a queer coat, it was a different kind of fur, His paws were different from mine. They were big and bare.
 He was startled when he saw me. After a while he began to think 1 was, too. This gave the animal courage. He started to act. He threw his front paws up in the air, took something off his head which he threw at me.
 1 got so scared I ran up the nill side. Sticks flew at the animal. 1 ran so far I was at my cave. After that 1 never went near the curve again.

SCHOOL NOTES
A Loaf of Bread
 Verna Wills

Verna Wills
 The farmer in the spring blows the ground and soWS the wheat.
 In the fall he starts harv esting and thrashing his wheat and takes it to the mill. The mill grinds the wheat and separates the flour from the bran. The mill then puts it in sacks and the farmer sellc it.
 The people buy the flour and make bread out of it.
 Before you can make br cad you have to make yeast
 First one pint of yeast to quart of water, two heaping tablespoon of salt, one half cup of sugar, and flour enough to make stiff dough. Let raise four hours and roll out in loaves. Let it raise again for one hour, then put it in the oven and let 1t bahe forty five minutes. The whole wheat bread is best for you be cause it is healthier for you.

MA IN WINTER
BY DOUGLAS MALLocH

r GUESS love the things Of old
= AS well as Father does,
But amt crazy for the cold
Like he is-dear me SUI
OF course in winter days, my dearA
A lot Of fun we had
But when you git along in years
A coal-stove amt so bad
recollect occasions when
We travelled In sleigh
And was nearly frozen then,
recollect today.
OF course it's very nice to come
Where woods are white and green,
But winters just as purity from
Inside limousine.
Perhaps to drive for twenty mile
Half froze was lots Of fun,
But Father ruther makes me smile
Why, now he hates to run
Around the corner to a show Z.
But, drive or dance or what,
A movie for amusement, though
Is handler a lot.
And when he talks about the way
Those smarties used to wash
Our faces in the snow--well. say.
/ want to fight, by gosh!
However funny it may seem
To Father now, perhaps
l recellect we had no cream
Them days to cure the chaps.
They say that it is distance lends
Enchantment to the view;
The flight of time as well, my friends,
Makes things look good to you.
SO Father of the days Of old
To talk will never tire,
When safe and snug from wind and
cold
Beside dandy fire.

fresh-laundered blouse to drive away
that dull "spring fever feeling which
assails most of us about now. No
wonder the suspender-skirt is becom-

ture tells its own story of its appeal to
schoolgirl, outdoor and business wom-

worn with separate waists or blouses.
The fact that it is knitted adds to It's
prestige.

Your Last
Name
is 1T GoRMAN?

TORMAN seems to have first been
"a used as a surname in Ireland, but
the first name from which 1t was de-
rived was Anglo-Saxon and was used
throughout the British isles in early
days. This was the name Gormund.
Mund In these old first names had
the significance of protection and the
first syllable "gor" may have come
from a word meaning war. The name
Gormund then would mean war-pro-
lection. Eventually the first name
came to be German and this was
adopted in Ireland as last name,
with O'Gorman, which meant simply
son of Gormund.
The Germans and O'Gormans in this
country all seem to have come from
Ireland. Both families have con-
tributed members to congress. There
is Senator James X. O'Gorman and
there was Senator Arthur Pue Cor
man of Maryland and a Representa-
tive James German from Indiana.
Senator Arthur Pue German was
born in Maryland in 1889. The son
of Peter and grandson of John Cor
man. who came to this country from
Ireland about 1900, settling in Harris
burg, Pa. From that state they went
to Maryland and there the family
settled.
James Sedgwick, grandson of Ed
ward German of county Down, Ire
land, was representative from Indiana.
Muir-There are two suggested
sources for this name. 1t is certainly
sometimes derived from the. word
muir, which is a north of England and
Scotch form for moor. The other sug
gestion is that it came from the me-
dieval MUIR, the man who kept the
mews-the place where the hawks
were kept while moulting. There was
such person attached to every feu-
dial castle while hawking was In
fashion and 1t would be but natural
If some of these men derived their
surname from their occupation.

Something to Think About

Bp Z. A. WALKER

, In their delicious sweets and enjoy
the thrill Of an unanticipated plea

From the first moment when you
begin to practice the scattering Of
cheering words, the whole atmosphere
around you changes.
The world somehow seems drawn
closer to heaven, and everything and
everybody about you appears brighter
and happier
In reality, there is no change except
in yourself. You have sown happi-
ness and are reaping happiness.
You have flung broadcast the sane
titled blessings and they are return
ing to you from every point of the
compass, filling your soul with JOY
unspeakable.
1t is you who are nearer heaven,
participating in its delights without
knowing it, growing more lovable as
the years speed by, dim your eye
and whiten your hair.
Old friends turn to you In their
sorrow for comfort.
The boys and girls go out of their
way to meet and greet you.
Even the derelicts have in some
manner heard your praises sung and
respect you.
Their bleary eyes brighten and their
tough old hearts soften when your
name is spoken, in spite of their gen.
eral belief that they are invulnerable
to the gentle touches of kindness.
The greatest workers for the up
lifting of humanity are the little words
of cheer, which. when fifty spoken.

Your Health

ULCERS

a N ULCER is simply a sore upon
\ the skin or mucous membrane, in
other words. a breaking down of the
cells, frequently with only slight ten
dency to get well.
In the latter respect ulcers differ
from healthy wounds which begin to
get well almost as soon as they are
formed or made
Ulcers may be caused by injury, by
burns, and by poor nutrition of the
| tissues where they occur.
They may be accompanied with
sloughing or destruction of the tissue,
and perhaps by reabsorption of dead
and poisonous material.
They are often attended with
hemorrhage and with great weakness
in consequence of the prolonged dis
charge which comes from them, and
which means waste of tissue.
This is particularly the case with
ulcers which attend such diseases as
syphilis and tuberculosis.
Ulcers which accompany these dis
eases are often incurable unless means
are found to cure the diseases which
caused them The treatment Of ulcers
should be constitutional and consist in
building up the general condition: and
also local. which is directed to the sore
The first will include all necessary

Past Glory of Royalty
Revealed to Austrians

In Schoenbrun. the late Emneror
Franz Joseph's Summer castle near
Vienna, there has been prepared a
banquet taolf for SO guests. 1t ex-
tends the entire length of the fea st
hall. Snowy linen covers the boards.
The silver service has been carefully
placed. Flower stands on the table
are filled with lilacs from the late
emperor's garden. Six crystal glass
es are at each place, one for water.
the five other for wine. Sixty chairs
are about the table. one in the middle
at the side of the long board being
slightly higher than the others. That
Is the emperor's chair. The menu.
printed in French. calls for MANY
courses. 1t Is the setting for the last
banquet. held on February 9, 1912.
Today Austrians are paying 5000
crowns to enter the feast hail. walk
around the table. admire the reflec-
tions In the wonderful mirrors, and
walk out again through the castle
grounds to the street.
True, today 5000 Austrian crowns
are equivalent to less than cents,
but the difference between the nomi-
nal value and the exchange value
has been paid In some way. The
Austrians lost the war and they
