Are you having your daily brush fire7 II not, why

or the lot next door and give the n~eighbors q good

The urge 10 60 out and start q brush fire u q most

dlately begins to feel funny. He doesn't know quite
what Il Is at first.
The initial symptom Is extreme uneasinesS. He
goes out into the back yard and walks around ner-
vously. He feels strange impulses stirring. Ulti-
mately he goes to the cellar or garage and gets a
rake. Then he begins to feel feverish. Presently he
begins to rake the lawn quite furiously. This gives
him no relief. He is puzzled.
Now he breaks out in a clammy perspiration. re
sees spots before his eyes. He thinks IL must be
something he ate and is about to 90 in and take
bicarbonate Of soda or something when his nostrns
catch an odor Of something burning. He looks

Immediately Jason realizes what's wrong with him.
He hasn't started a grass fret
He whips out a box Of matches and darts about the
yard. igniting the grass and tanning the flames with
his hat. He feels a little better.

Slowly at first the flames spread. The wind seems
unfavorable for a good hot fire endangering old Mrs,
Doople's house next door. But a breeze springs up
and the fire gets pretty smart. II ignites the clothes

Dooples property.
Jason feels very good now but not perfect. He will
not feel right until the flames reach the Doople eel

be time to rush into the kitchen for a broom. The
wind gets sitter. Hoorayl The grass fire is now
going great guns. Jason dashes in and gets the
broom. He starts beating at the flames. Neighbors
come rushing from all points Of the compass with
brooms.
Mrs. Doople calls the fire department. Mrs. Doople's
house IS saved. Jason says he can't understand how
the fire got started. It must have been boys. A good
time has been had by all.
