The Land of Milk

Patty just didn't like milk. One
bright sunny day she sat in the gar
den playing. A big fat bee droned
by and settled on a nearby bios
som. Soon two more Joined him.
"What a funny buzzing sound
they make" though Patty.
"Wouldn't it be funny to be bee
and fly from flower to flower look
ing for honey? Then wouldn't
have to drink milk, or do anything
at all but fly around and buzz and
buzz"
Just then she noticed some one
walking about under the trees. He
seemed to be wringing his hands
and looking for some one. He
looked like a great big Milk Bottle.
"But he can't be-" unused Patty,
because Milk Bottles don't have
legs and arms and heads. And be-
sides he's talking"
He was quite near now and Patty
saw the troubled look on his face
and could hear distinctly what he
was saying. 81 wonder where she
Is, and wonder why she doesn't
like me when like her so much"
Then, catching sight Of Patty, he
hurried toward her.
PATTY DEAR" he called, won't
you come and play with meT
He really was a Milk Bottle, and
because his arms were short he had
a hard time reaching for his cap.
He tipped 1t ever so little.
I'm glad he didn't bow" thought
Patty, "he'd spill If he did" Aloud
she said: go away, please. I don't
like you"
"How do you know that you don't
like me? Let me introduce some
of my friends to you"
And sure enough there they were.
They looked like Brownies; some
wore brown, some blue, some white
and some red.
my friends" he began in a very
important tone Of voice, "this is
Patty. Tell her what you can do
for her"
Then taking hold Of hands they
danced near and Patty noticed that
they were lettered A, B, G, and D.
They took off their caps, bowed low
before her and said: 1--WE are the
vitamins."
"Keeping eyes well and strong"
sang A.
"Scaring illness away" cried B.
making you grow" sang out G.
And D in high-pitched, squeaky
voice piped, PLENTY Of me, strong
bones will be-"
All this time four little blue ones
had been whispering off to one side,
with their heads together. Not I'M
til they faced her did she notice
that they had their names written
on white strips Of paper, too.
"I'm Iron," said the first one,
"and very Important"
I'm Phosphorus" said another,

Z. Why does zebra have stripesf
Answers:
j. After great study some one has
found that the skin of an average
sized man has about 100000 pores.
Each PERSONS number il different.
OF course, but from this figure you
can make some guesses that may be
very nearly correct.
.. Great scientists have been try
ing to discover the answer to this
question for many years, but al.
though they know that the bodies
Of men and members of the monkey
family are similar in structure. no
explanations Of this are yet known.
.. The sun cannot really be said
to have any color. It merely has
great brightness. Surrounding the
bright surface is q gaseous sub
stance that has q rose tint called
the chromosphere. This, perhaps.
gives the appearance Of color to the
sun.
I. The stripes of the zebra act as
q protective coloring in the dis
lance, making 1t difficult to find Mr..
Zebra in the woods and on the
plains where he dwells.

(Copyrisht.l
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-03-18

The board of works in regular session last night voted to have the city engineers office in the future, furnish the grade and building lines on accepted streets to property own- CTS contemplating construction. This information is to be given at the property owners request. It will mark new step for 1t has not been done before.
 The. action came after request was made for the grade and build ing lines on York street by q prop erty owner who said he Is about ready to build a couple of garages there. He said he wanted to have to conform with them when building his garages. Assistant City Engineer Charles Root said the city never furnished this information in the past because it would entail too much work. He said the only ob- jection he had was that every prop perty owner would be coming in to get his lines and grade on his street.
 Mayor Frank Hayes said it was his opinion that the tax payer was en- titled to know what the building lines and grade were and called at- tention to the property owners who had built on accepted streets without this information only to have part of their front lawns or steps cut away when the street was paved or laid out anew. He said if it we're neces- sary additional help would be placed in the engineers department to fur nish the information to the property owners.
 Owners of oil burners who have placed city water and gas box cov- CTS over intake pipes in the sidewalks have created liable position for ths city, according to Thomas J. Fleming, superintendent of streets and water. These boxes, particular ly the one on North Main street, near Sparks street, jut up over the pave- ment and are loose, the communica- tion stated. If a pedestrian should trip over one of these boxes he could bring suit against the city. The matter was referred to the corpora tion counsel for investigation. Super intendent Fleming was instructed to
