who plead guilty on their first offensa

Why the Boy Never busted the
Store Furniture

An old time Southerner, who had
never learned to hurry, wanted to
give his favorite recipe for home
Drew to friend. He began to search
for 1t in his right coat pocket, slow
~ removing every article from the
right pocket to the left without re-
SUITS. Then he reversed the opera
ton, transferring the contents of the
left pocket to 1.-THE right. Still the
recipe was not forthcoming. He had
started patiently and deliberately to
empty the right pocket again when a
smile lighted his face. He said:
This reminds me of the niger
boy who sweeps the drug store on
the corner. I asked him the other
oay why he never busted the fur
n1ture. and he answered.: Gaze I
JUS sweep de flo and If l dus' de fur
niture de dus'll git back on de flo
and I have to sweep the flo agin

Robert o. Seavey Of Bath, has re-
turned from an automobile trip across
the continent Of 10000 miles to pass
the winter with his mother. Mrs. c. H.
Treen. 1t is his second extensive
trip and was of much more interest
than his first. He left Bath about
May / in Ford touring car with
complete camping outfit and paid his
way by earning money from odd jobs
and by delivering informal talks on
Maine, its natural beauties and Won
derful opportunities, before automo-
bile campers. Twenty-Five states were
visited on this trip and coupled with
those visited on his previous trip, Mr..
Seavey has now been in all but five
states of the Union and Of them all
he declares there is nothing like
Maine. Upon leaving Bath he went
straight across the country to Chi
cago, Salt Lake. and San Francisco,
and returned from the Pacific coast
by the Sante Fe route. In Kansas
City he found heavy floods and was
obliged to make a detour Of so miles
through clay mud to get away from
the high waters that flooded the city
streets and much of the state high
ways. In Utah he alsoI ran into a
sand storm that continued all one
afternoon and evening, and although
he was alone and never had en-
couptered such a storm before he
came through without harm.
