YOUR PLACE is HERE

Did you ever hear the sad, sad
story of Tom Jones, who sold his
home in Pleasantville several
years ago for $4,000, and took the
money and went to the oil fields
to get rich? He came back just
few days ago, and he thought he
would like to look at the old home
again. When he got there, he
found a sign something like this,
'This property sold in 1924 for
$4,000, re-sold in 1925 for $4,000,
and is valued to-day at $25,000."
All that might have been very
well if the Pleasantville man had
gotten rich in the oil fields, which
was what he started out to do. but
sadly enough, he did not.

BILE of wheels outside. Poverty
Pig first thought he would hide
under the table, but curiosity got
the better of his fear, and for
getting his ragged clothes he
rushed to the door.
He could hardly believe his
eyes, and gave squeal of de-
light Yes, surely the golden
chariot was real, so were the six
little black ponies that drew it!
On either side marched two
trumpeters wearing scarlet coats,
tall black hats and carrying long
silver horns.
The King himself was there,
looking at Poverty Pig, who made
a low bow, but not before he had
time to see the crimson cape and
the gold hat with its large plume
which the King wore.
Poverty Pig pinched himself to
make sure that he was not
dreaming, and as he Strengthened
up he was surprised to see the
King coming toward him with
outstretched hands. There was
something familiar, strangely
familiar in the Kings face.
my son, my little lost son~
cried the King, and the trumpet
ers blew loudly upon the silver
horns.
And so it came to pass that
Poverty Pig rode away in the
golden chariot with the King.
That night Paddy and Peppery
returned home, hungry, tired and
disappointed. They had not seen
the King and they did not find
supper of hot porridge awaiting
them; but instead, little note
from Poverty Pig telling them
that someday he would be King.
Peppery was angry and said
in a loud voice, "Now we will
have to do our own work again."
but Paddy was thinking hard.

AND MOSQUITOES.

How to make the military
branch useful in times of peace Is
problem commanding the inter
est of every civilian; not that an
army or a navy should not stick
to it's last, but that the Service
frequently welcomes opportuni-
ties to cooperate with civic au-
thorities for the general good.
The Marines at Quantico, the
great training station on the Po-
tomac, appear to have struck an
idea that will commend itself;
they will chase the mosquitoes of
Chapawamsic Creek with air
planes. To Commander Norman
r.. Mclean, of the Medical Corps
of the Navy and celebrated for his
cleaning up of Haiti during the
five years he served as sanitary
officer in that Black Republic, this
task has been delegated.
The Department of Agriculture
long has sprayed cotton fields to
eliminate the boil weevil, but the
Marines will employ the novel
method of sprinkling water-soaked
sawdust impregnated with paris
green. We smile when we hear
that these minute particles not
only will not harm fish or animals
which happen to swallow them
from aquatic or land vegetation,
but they actually will prove a ton
ic, like nux vomica; but we en-
dorse the idea. and wish it could
be applied along the whole At
Iantic coast. If the salt marshes
could be rid of mosquitoes by
means of military airplanes, Colo
mel Mitchell's fight would have
been needless.
