LITTLE BENNY
BY LEE PAPE.

Pop dident come home for dinnir
veStidday til ma had bin looking at
he clock pritty neer a half u hour and
wing things to herself sutch as. This
IS awful, this is more than flesh and
blud can stand without breaking the
camels back, wat does he think tele-
fones were invented for. for all he
cares he mite Of bin run over or shot
or something, for all l know, patience
reeses to be a virtue Wen things like
his happin.
And after vile pop came home and
started to hang up his hat and coat
looking nerviss and ma came down
saying. Well, don't tell me your home
at last, how do YOU iXpect me to keep
a cook wen you make her go through h
the Experience of standing out there
in the kitchin tawking to herself like
a crazy woman and slowly but fermly
watching her whole dinnir get as cold
and dry as the Sarah desert?
/ can ixplain, pop sed. and ma sed.
Then wy dident you call up and TX
plain insted Of keeping me in Suspense
like a hen on a hot griddle in the
times Of the Dark Ages before tele-
fones were invented?
But confound 1t all. II was a long
line. l bet l stood in that line 80 min
nits. its a very popular show, pop sed.
Show, wat show ma sed.
Wy. Follow the Crowd, I've bin try
ing to tell you / got tickits for tonite
but you wouldent give me half a
chance. pop sed, and ma sed, O. we'll
dident know that. for goodniss sakes.
izzent that wonderful, you run up and
wash up, you must be ixausted after
standing in that dredful line so long.
II want take a minnit to warm every
thing up and if Nora don't like 1t she
knows wat she can do. this house is.
zent being run to suit her.
And ma went back in the kitcffn
and pop quick went up stairs and
started to telefone, saying, Hello. is
this tive box office. well have you 2
good seets for tonite, that's fine. jest
hold them for me, Potts is the name
thank you.
And he went down to dinnir looking
like somebody feeling a hundred times

New Dam Started.
A builder sees his labor done
Before the work is cen begun.
Paddy the Beaver.

Do you understand just what Paddy
means by that little saying? He means
that one who is planning to make 4 by
thing. no matter what, must in his
mind see it all completed; see it just
as 1t will look In every little detail.
And he must do this before he even
begins work on it. In his mind he
must have a pattern and see it clearly
or his work will fail.
It was so in the matter of the new
dam which he and his family were to
build down the Laughing Brook so as
to make a new pond that they might

Sorrel Soup.

This is an adaptation of a French
recipe and made as follows:
-Four cups meat stock, three onions,
ore cup sorrel or spinach, two car
rots, two turnips. stale bread Pre-
pare and dice the vegetables. Clean
the greens and chop. Heat the greens
with a little butter. Add the stock
and boil for two hours. Season with
salt and pepper. Shave very thin
.waferlike pieces of crust from the
stale loaf of bread. Serve four or five
of these or more. according to taste,
in each plate and pour the boiling
soup over the bread.

these stitches. Each time a stitch is
taken the thread must be drawn tight.
Cotton or linen SHOULD be used in pref
erence to silk, even when the material
is silk.
Drawn Work Trimming.
Decorative drawn work may be
simulated as well as hemStitching. To
do this follow instructions for hem
stitching, only when the second stitch
is taken put the needle in the goods
just above the last hole. Continue
the work by putting the needle in the
hole just below and repeat the stitches
as described. A single row little dis
tance from the hemstitched hem gives
a dainty trimming to lingerie necks
and sleeves, while a few straight lines
down the front make an attractive
ornament, especially If French knots
are put between the rows.
Lingerie Scarfs, Etc.
This sort of hemstitching and simu-
lated drawn work is just the thing to
use on fine lingerie. 1t can also be
used to advantage for finishing the
sides and ends of silk or georgette
scarfs. 1t will reduce the cost of the
scarf to the price of the material
Picoting and machine hemstitching
can be eliminated.
Combination Stitches.
Combination embroidery stitches
can be used to outline hens. edges of
bags. table runners. sofa cushions, etc.
Make French knots between the
angles of cat stitches, or the branch
ing groups of feather stitching. In
rtoduce tiny flowers made of French
knots Tor done as you would on hand
kerchiefs) into the spaces of cat or
feather stitching. A row of large
cross stitches may have either the
French knots or flowers made between
them as we'll as where the stitches
separate. Use a penny for tracing
about on material to form circles
alone, or interlocking. Work them in
outline, putting the knots or flowers
in the center. and you will have pleas
ing motifs without the expense of hav-
ing the goods stamped.

AMERICAN LEGION TO GIVE
PLAY

Local interest in the cast for the
American Legion play 'Inside the
Lines" is keen, because Of the prom
inence' Of the jamestown men and
women in the leading parts. For in
stance there are three Rotarians in
the cast; two Kiwanians; an Elk, and
probably other civic groups quite as
illustrious, represented. DR.. Carr,
DR.. Hill, and DR.. Mosbrucker, add
spice to the production, while sis
ter of one of our local professional
women, Miss lone Bolton, will have
many acquaintances and friends in
Bismarck, eager to see her in her
role.
Mrs. L. Upshaw, director of the
play, and one of the leading actors,
is the wife of the leader of sing
ing for the Rotarian convention, so
we'll remembered by the Bismarck
people and the surrounding country,
held in this city last April. Mrs.
Upshaw, who was jamestown So
ciety girl before her marriage, is a
graduate of noted school of Dra-
matics and has done much of CON
structive work in the field If drama.
North Dakota has reason to be proud
of the finished art of this director.
1t is expected that all the sur
rounding towns and communities IS
will come on to Bismarck to see this
excellent play, put on under the aus
pices of our local American Legion

CHURCH OPPOSED TO
EVOLUTION THEORY

Tuckerman, July 5.-Reiterating
their belief in the creation of man as
given in the book of Genesis and de-
claring that the teaching that man is
a product of evolution is unscientific,
untrue and unreasonable, the congrega-
ton of the First Baptist church of
Tuckerman has adopted resolution,
protesting teaching of the theory Of
evolution at the expense of Arkansas
taxpayers.
Adoption Of the resolution took place
Sunday following the farewell address
of Rev. o. A. Greenleaf, pastor, who
has resigned on the advice of a physi-
clan.
"Man comes into existence by a sep
arate and special act of creation Of
Almighty God" the resolution states,
and is concluded with the following
paragraph:
1--WE further pledge that should the
time come when it is necessary for us
TO act as individuals on this matter,
we will give our efforts, our money
and our lives. if need be, to prevent
this God dishonoring, soul destroying
doctrine from being taught to the ris-
ing generation"
