For the flower box, = or = inch
wood is used Boards from to
inches in width are best and they
should be free from warp or checks.
All four sides should taper slightly
from top to bottom. Cut the pieces for
one box and make sure the taper
pleascs the eye before mailing them to-
gether. Notice that the end grain Is
put on the ends. as one of the long
sides is always the front. This box
should have two coats of green paint,
although you can cut simple block de-
signs from linoleum or wood and stamp
on a pattern to improve the appear
ance. For the selling price of the box,
figure the cost Of the materials, then
double this for your selling price. Some
times more than the material cost can
be added, depending upon the time re-
CURED. You should have no trouble
in getting number of orders for
flower boxes. but since these are usually
wanted TO fit under windows, it will be
best to talk with the prospects first.
then make the boxes up according to
specifications. Usually, brackets will
also be required, another source OF
profit.
General repair work also offers a
splendid opportunity to earn money. II
you have a soldering iron and blow
torch, you can make general metal re-
pairs at almost every home in your
neighhorhood. The patching of furni-
ture can be done in your shop. More
than one home has from one to four or
five pieces of furniture-chairs and that
sort of thing-which require the use OF
glue and screws. Talking with the
home owner usually results in chance
to take the pieces home where you can
repair them right on the bench. This
will mean not only replacing piece of
wood. for instance, but the sandpaper-
ing and finishing of it also, and the re-
Sulting job should show a nice profit.
A more elaborate job would be a dog
kennel. Soliciting orders for dog
houses will not bring many orders, but
each one will run into money and the
work of making them will not be diff
cult. There are almost unlimited pos
sibilities for profitable repairing and
constructing and you will probably have
more than you can do in spare time II
you go after the business
Any sort of wooden dry goods boxes
will give an abundance of wood for all
sorts of uses. You might leave a
standing order at several stores for these
boxes. They can be dismantled on the
spot and the boards bundled and taken
! home. For some OF the more particu.

not always so lonely, though, for when
it was erected it was part of a church,
one of the first churches erected in
America by English settlers in the New
World
1t was erected in 1855 by the early
Virginia settlers and was built on the
very spot where Capt. John Smith, that
famous explorer, had built a wooden
one some years previous. This earlier
church was the one in which Poca-
hontas, the Indian maid and daughter
of Powhatan, was married to John Rolf
in 1914. The new church was large
one for the times. 1t was built entirely
of brick and of wood taken from the
dense forests, and the tower that stands
there today was placed at the entrance.
The times were troublesome in the
Virginia of 800 years ago, and when
the white men were not fighting the
Indians they would often fight among
themselves. And SO about Is years
after the church had been completed
Nathaniel Bacon and his soldiers re-
belled against the authority of the gov
ernor, marched on Jamestown and
burned the town and the church. Moth
ing of the latter remains today except
the ruined tower you see pictured
here, an object of beauty in its old
age, and one visited by thousands OF
people every year.

He KEPT CRIMLY AT 1T.

I'm trying to master that curve and
my fast ball, too" he answered seriously.
Il think can do it sooner or later, but,
goSh want to be in shape to play
against Rainier next Saturday, if the
coach will only give me another
chance"
Tom nodded sympathetically The
Rainier contest was one of the biggest
games of the season, and he knew how
much frankie must want to play in it.
We'll, I wish you luck" he said. IF
I can help you at ell by catching you,
or anything, just say the word"
mo, won't get you in wrong with
the coach again." said frankie. This
is my own fight, and I'll go it alone
More mornings of practice behind the
barn. The days passed rapidly, bring
ing the Rainier game closer and closer.
Finally at practice on Friday ne took
his courage in both hands and APP
preached the coach.
ct just wanted to ask you, Coach, "
he began desperately, "if you won't
give me another chance. I've been
practicing, and 1 can control the ball
all right now. I won't throw any more
wild ones
The coach regarded him in silence
for many seconds. Then he slowly
shook his head.
I'm afraid not, Frankie" he said,
in kindly voice. "You could have
helped me a lot by keeping on being
a good center fielder, but you chose to
persist in trying to be a pitcher and
ruined yourself. I can't take any more
chances with you"
Those words hurt frankie more than
all of the coach's sarcasm. He hung
his head, then raised it again.
IT know" he gulped I'm sorry.
But Coach, can hit, and We'll need
hits tomorrow. Please give me chance.
Let me show you now. I can throw a
ball as straight as an arrow"
"Oh, believe you," said the coach.
"I suppose you can still throw the out
curve, too"
ooh, yeh," said frankie, hopelessly.
"And drop. But-but what difference
does it make?"
The coach was silent, but he eyed
frankie closely. The boy caught his
gaze and turned away, but the coach
looked after him and there was a
strange light on his face.
who knowS?" he unused. Maybe
the kid knows more about himself than
I do. But he's got to take his medi-
cine and he doesn't start tomorrow"
At that moment a sudden hush
seemed to fall over the field. The coach
sensed something important and swung
around to face the diamond where the
regulars and scrubs were playing a
short game. He saw a group OF players
around the pitchers box where Waite
Roberts had been hurting. Other play
erS were running over and the coach
Joined them, knowing instinctively that
something was wrong.
And something was decidedly wrong
Waite had tried to stop a singing
liner from the bat of one Of the scrubs
and, foolishly, had gone for 1t with his
pitching hand. When the coach reached
him Waite's face was screwed up with
pain and his right wrist was already
swelling.
And you we're to pitch tomorrow, u
said the coach grimly, as he hurried the
injured boy to the dressing room for q
closer examination of the injury. well
1 guess it's up to Jack Sharp to carry
the burden himself and if he can't stop
Rainier, I guess we're sunk"

One of the nice things about your
own shop is that in it you cannot only
have a lot of fun and obtain valuable
experience. but you can often turn q
handsome profit as well. To the aver
age boy, earning money is about as i'm
portant as pleasure, and, if you can
earn money and have fun doing it, the
combination is hard to beat.
The small home workshop can be
used to keep you in spending money
right along if you are bit aggressive
and have little selling ability. At this
time of the year every one is interested
in gardens and lawns. Your own
neighborhood should yield large num-
Der OF prospects for your wares, which
will sell at handsome profit.
The illustration shows but three
items, although these are easy to make
and leave a good margin of profit. The
trelliS and marker can be made from
lath, and bundle of them, costing but
a trifle, will last a long time. OF
course each lath must be dressed down.
If you have a motor-driven saw with
guides on the table, this will be easy
Simply set the guide to the right spac-
ing, then run the lath through to take
off only the rough portions. If you do
not own this equipment. the WORK can
be done almost as easily with a good
sharp plane. Dress down a number Of
them at one time.
The secret of good trellis design is the
spacing. The distance between sticks
should equal their width, and whenever
possible the amount of stick projecting
past an overlap should also equal this
width. The design shown does not
carry this rule thoroughly, but some
times alterations can be made without
harming the appearance. This trellis
will require about laths. The pieces
are fastened with lath nails, which will
stick through on the back about one-
quarter of an inch. They should be
clinched on the back.
Two coats of white paint will be re-
quired. Let the first coat dry before
applying the second coat. This will
cover the nail heads and points and
render them inconspicuous. The trellis
will sell for SO cents, at least, and rs
cents is usually the right price, leaving
at least so cents as your profit.
The markers are made from two
pieces, shaped and nailed together
Two small wood screws can be used in
stead of nails if you wish. Give the
article two coats of paint and letter
the name wanted on each one wher
delivery is to be made. The person
owning nice flower garden will some.
times order dozen or more of these
| which sell for about 10 cents each.

INSTAI,LMENT w.

Had it not been sLch a serious mat
ter to him, frankie would undoubtedly
have seen the humor in the turn af-
fairs had taken. Here he had been
putting all his efforts into learning to
throw the curve, and when success
finally came, it was SO complete that 1t
was really failure! What good was an
outfielder who couldn't throw straight?
For that matter, what good was pitch
er who couldn't throw anything but an
outshoot?
With the exception of Coach Hag-
gerty and Tom Polonis, hardly any one
on the squad knew what was behind
the retirement of frankie to the bench.
They merely knew that his three bad
throws had almost cost them the Van
derport game, which Warrington finally
won by belated rally. Coach Haggerty
said little more after his first outburst
over the matter, but during the follow
ing week the substitute played regu-
larry in centerheld.
frankie was in the very depths of
despair. He felt that he was traitor
to his team and to his school, for by his
stubborn desire to be pitcher he had
ruined himself as an outfielder, where
he was needed. And now his heavy hit
ting was lost to the team, too.
For three days he came to practice
and scarcely spoke to any one. For
three mornings he gave up his early
practice behind the barn. But on the
fourth morning he was up even earlier
than usual and there was determined
set to his chin.
IF I learned to throw this curve, I
can learn not to throw it" he muttered
to himself. "Or better yet, can learn
to throw my fast ball again, and maybe
a drop like Walter Roberts too. And
then I'll be able to pitch some, as well
as throw in from the field decently."
From that time on his cheerfulness
returned, although he was still quiet
during practice. Nobody but Frankie
himself knew what went on in those
early morning sessions, and nobody else
could have realized the despair that
sometimes gripped him as he saw every
ball he threw take that wide outcurve.
But he kept grimly at it. and by the
end of the week he thought he was be-
ginning to get results.
He had hoped to get into the game
on Saturday but the substitute played
in centerfield. Finally, when pinch
hitter was needed in the ninth inning,
he got a chance and delivered a single
that was a big help to Warrington in
pulling another close game out of the
fire, but he got no chance in the field.
The coach had seen enough OF his
throwing.
AS he was dressing after that game,
Tom Polonis asked him how he was
getting along.

The Kitchenette. I want to thank you
all for your letters and for the splendid
recipes you have sent. am trying to
print them just as fast as can, SO try
to be patient. Here is a recipe by Elsie
Anderson:
DATE BARS.
Two eggs, well beaten.
Four tablespoonful milk.
One Scant cupful sugar.
One cupful flour.
Half cupful chopped nuts.
Half cupful chopped dates.
One and a half teaspoonfuls baking
powder.
One teaspoonful vanilla.
Pinch of salt.

called out at length. "He who breaks
his word shall lose his life"
Then he wheeled his horse and paced
back to his own lines. He must have
been chagrined, but at his coming his
amirs and lords of the regiments
streamed out to meet him, and from
the thousands who had watched him
swelled a roaring greeting. Kettle drums
Numbered through the clashing of
cymbals and the deep clamor of the
long battle trumpets, until horses
neighed and reared and cattle beloved.
There was no mistaking the feeling of
his men.
TIMUR'S angry words proved pro-
phetic. because Yussuf Sufi fell
sick presently and at his death the city
was given up. 1t was agreed that the
girl Khan zade should be sent to the
conquerors as Jahangir's bride. and
Kharesm with the great city of Urganj
was made into a province to be adj
ministered by Thurs eldest son.
The chronicle says that after this vic
tory Thurs dominion became so Sc
cure that luxury was its only enemy.
These wars in miniature demon
strated merely that Timur had become
an exceptional leader. and that he had
been prompt to make himself master of
the nearby powers that might have
threatened him. But in Timur there
had arisen a leader who had the in
Stinct of conqueror, and who was
now in the fullness of his strength.
He was "a when he sat upon the white
felt at Balkh, in the year 1869. And
beyond his borders, in all the quarters
of the four winds, warfare smoldered.
Upon the track of the Black Plague
that swept from Asia into Europe
earlier in the century, unrest stirred,
and dynasties fell. The trade caravans
turned aside into new channels. Men
sought the armed camps, and horsemen
appeared in deserted fields. and fame
moved through the darkness.
Into this vast battle-ground 1t was
inevitable that Timur should go.

Frankie Lum has trained himself to throw
by hurting rocks about his fathers farm.
He transfers TO Warrington High School in
the city and goes out for the bali team there,
wishing to be a pitcher. However, Coach
Haggerty has two good pitchers, SO he uses
arm and hitting ability. Still wishing to
become a pitcher frankie tries to learn to
throw a few curves under the instruction OF
Tom Polonis. catcher on the team. They
practice every noon until the coach orders
them to stop. frankie persists in his ef-
forts. however. getting up early each morn
ing to pitch at a target on the barn. Then,
in an important game, while frankie is
playing in centerfeld, the knack of throw
ing an outcurve suddenly comes to him. In
fact, it comes SO suddenly that his throw
ms acquire the curve. being so wide that
two runners score. The coach IS angry,
and when frankie curves third throw he
is retired to the bench. There he admits
to Tom Polonis that now that he has learned
to throw the curve he can't throw anything
else!

You know. of course, that rivers flow
from their sources toward their mouths
and then empty into larger river,
lake or into an ocean, but there Is
one river in the United States which
does things the other way. 1t is the
Chicago River and it is small stream
only about miles long. Up to the
year 1900 it behaved like all streams
and emptied its waters into Lake Michi-
gan. And as it emptied into the clear
waters of the lake it carried with it
all the sewage, decayed matter and
slime that had been drained into the
stream from the thousands of homes
and factories of Chicago. The people
of the city, who drink the water from
Lake Michigan, saw that this would not
