Escape From, Danger
Makes for Pleasure

In escape from dangers of all
kinds we find one of the greatest
thrills in life. The small child
asks to be chased and squeals with
delight as she escapes; small boys
skate over thin ice; grown men
hazard their fortunes by gambling,
and women risk their regulations
by reading risque stories all that
they may have the thrill of escap-
ing from something.
The stories of universal appeal,
from "Little Red Riding Hood" and
Jack the Giant Killer" up to the
highest tragedies, are stories Of
escape or attempted escape. Even
our spiritual struggles are drama
tized stories of escape. The Pill
grim's Progress" is the story of
Christians escape from the City of
Destruction, though the interest is
sustained by a number Of minor
escapes, beginning with the Wicket
Gate where0n was written Flee
from the wrath to come and end
ing with his final escape from the
river. which he found deeper or
shallower according as his faith
grew weaker or strOnger.-ThOmaS

OF Political Economy, in the Mag
azine OF Business.

Defect Il, the Painting

Zeuxis, famous Greek painter
who lived in the latter half of the
Fifth century, B. c., is reputed to
have painted bunch of grapes that
looked SO natural that birds came
and pecked at them. This is said
to have occurred during cOmpe-
titiOn between Zeuxis and q young
rival named ParrhasiuS. Zeuxis
admitted that his rival surpassed
him when Parrhasius painted Z
curtain by which the older artist
himself was deceived, says Path
finder Magazine. Pliny gives q diff
ferent version of the story. He
says Zeuxis painted boy holding
grapes toward which birds flew. The
artist. commenting upon the incl
dent, said that If the boy had been
as well painted as the grapes the
birds would have been kept at .
distance.

Careless Letter Writers

Post Office employees in congress
may be pardoned if their estimate
of the public's intelligence is some
what low. Letters still come adj

Penrose, former senator's now dead
several years. Uncle Joe Cannon's
mail Is quite heavy yet. Senators

mixed up indiscriminately by letter

to his eyes, and he attempted a
meek apology, but the words were
hardly begun when his mother
stormed, Hush, go at once to
your room. I'll see you later"
In sullen, rebellfous mood,
Jimmy started away but before
he was out of hearing, his mother
turned to her caller, and in a high
pitched angry voice gave vent to
her feelings.
etHe is the most careless child
] have. He has no consideration
for me whatever. I slave away
from morning till night and he's
forever making extra work for
me, such as this. I'm sure he will
come to some bad end, he's SO
reckless and hard to manage"
AS the Sunday school worker
listened to Jimmy's mother, she
too, was afraid that perhaps some
day Jimmy might come to some
bad end. She made several appeals
to this mother with regard to the
Sunday school but could not get
her thoughts far enough away
from her home and it's immediate
troubles to arouse her interest.
As she walked toward the next
home, she pondered over Jimmy,
his playmates and general envir-
onment. When she knocked at this
door, she heard a general rush
and scurry of bare feet about the
room mingled with little giggles,
but in moment every thing was
quiet. Then a rather large but
pleasant-loo king woman opened
the door. The merry twinkle in her
eyes and her kindly smile radiated
good cheer and sympathy.
| In a matter of-fact way she
said "Harry and the little boy
next door have been enjoying
themselves in the mud this morn
ing." Then she seemed to dismiss
the whole affair from her mind
and gave her undivided attention
to her caller.
We all love an understanding

people seem to forget they were
once children. Yet the end to
which childish behavior leads gem

the parent than upon the child.

THE VALUE OF SYMPATHY
We read and hear so much
about the faults and general mis-
conduct of children, but how many
parents do you know who really
measure up to standard.
A Sunday school worker started
out one morning to get mothers
and their children more interest
ed in Sunday school. 1T had been
raining the day before, and Little
puddles were standing every
where.
Her knock at the door of a pref
ty little home was answered by a
rather tired. nervous-looking wom-
an. Before she had finished ex-
planning her mission, a boy about
ten years of age came in. His
clothing face, hands and feet
showed very plainly he had been

TWELVE MILES
"Slim Hatch, Carried to
Horse Heaven by Charivari
Party, Eludes Captors and
Traverses Distance Home
with Record Speed

:.
"Breezin' Along with the
Breeze" was no doubt the song
"Slim" Hatch sang Tuesday even
ing as he wendell his weary way
thru twelve miles of sage brush
from out of the Horse Heaven
hills back to his home port at
Kennewick or perhaps the song
should have been "Freezin' along
with the Breeze as the night was
rather chilly and ~Slim" didn't
have any overcoat along. For that
matter he didn't have much of
anything "a pair of B. v. DIS and
his shoes comprising the complete
outfit.
It happened like this: "Slim'
who is employed by the Twin City
Creamery Co.. elected to take a
vacation last week and he and
Miss Leila Chambers slipped off
to Yakima and were married Sun
day. Slim told all his friends not
to expect him back until June 20,
but the word got around town
Tuesday evening that he and his
bride had just returned. Such ex-
treme quietude did not appeal
greatly to the newly married
couples friends and that evening
at about thirty dozen young
men called at the home Of the
newly weds. The house was per-
fectly dark, but after insistent
pounding "Slim" appeared hnd
smilingly shook hands with the
waiting aggregation.
If the charivariers expected vio-
lence they were mistaken. After
congratulations were over, "Slim"
was loaded into car and driven
about town a bit. "Slim" bought
cigars, afterwards the party Wis
tied Plowman's and Bert Loyd's
then they drove out far into the
great open spaces. With only his
shoes and a very thin, one-piece
under garment between him and
the cold world, stSlim" was aband-
oned to his fate among the jack
rabbites and sand rates.
After driving about a mile to-
ward town the charivari party
stopped and waited. "Slim" didn't
show up during the first half hour
nor during the second. His abduct-
ors became worried. They went
back and searched the field where
he had been set at large but the
groom was gone. Their efforts at
a rescue were in vain and "Slim"
did not make another public ap-
pearance during the night.
Wednesday morning "Slin" was
back on the job once more at the
creamery and apparently he had
suffered no i'll effects from the
hectic evening. How long it. took
him to negotiate the twelve miles
on foot has not been definately
ascertained, but as ne has rather
long legs it is believed that he
made it sometime before day
light.
