Us fellows was having q catch with
real base ball out on the front street,
being suppose to be against the law,
and Shorty Judge muffed it on ac-
count of it being too far over his short
reach, and it rolled down to the corner
and stopped against the cerbstone, and
just then Flatfoot the cop termed around
the corner and stood there, and us fell
lows quick went and sat on my front
steps looking innocent and wondering
II Flatfoot knew the ball was there or
weather he was just standing there on
general principals, and Puds Simklns
said, How about If one OF us walks down
and see how he acts, and If he don't
act Suspicious we can QUICK stoop down
and grab the ball.
Sounding like a good idea, ony none
Of us wanted to be the one on account
Of not wanting to give Flatfoot chance
to grab us before we grabbed the ball,
and said, Well got a idea, let Glasses
Magee dislike himself by taking his
glasses off SO F1atfoot wont reckonize
him, and when he gets down there he
can judge by FlattootS expression
weather to pick up the DeI or not.
Like fun, he'd reckonize me al rite,
Glasses Magee said, and Shorty Judge
said, bet you he wouldent, take your
glasses of and lets see.
Wich Glasses did, and us fellows all
made bleeve we didenC hardly know
him, me saying, Good mite, if saw
you on the street like that I'd think
you was somebody I dident know and
you mite get insulted because dident
speak to you, and Puds Simkins saying,
G WIZ that's certeny a CRATE dislike
all rite, any time you want to hire your
self out as detecktfve and spy on
your trends all Won haff to do is take
your glasses off, don't he, fellows?
All the fellows saying sure, and
Glasses went in my front hall and look
ed at himself in the mirrer to see if
he reckonized himself, not being quite
sure weather he did or not, and just
then Flatfoot kept on going and walked
away, and Shorty Judge went down
after the ball on account of him being
the one that muffed it. so Glasses will
proberly never find out what would of

SPRINCTIME
BY d. C. PEATTIE.

The old country folk always say
that what begins too well will end
badly. If fate lets you have a mild
Winter. it will make you pay with a
cold Spring This year would tend to
prove this belief-a belief SO firmly
rooted in our minds, so passionately
defended by many people, that a
strong case of superstition may be
suspected. The adherents of this view
remember all the cases that lend color
to their contention. They never seem
to record contradictory examples.
Washingtonians who recall the Win
ter Of 1918-l9l9 will admit that 1t was
an exceptionally mild Winter, with
absolutely no setbacks. There was not
one flake of snow in New York City
all that year. Washington was almost
hot much Of the time. The influenza,
to be sure, was very bad, but that may
not have been due TO the "unseason-
able" weather: it was part of a world
wide epidemic of influenza propagated
by war conditions and resulting In
more deaths than the war.
Spring came neither too early nor
too late: there were no March bliz-
yards. My recollections of the two
cities In that Winter are personal, but
I think that the Weather Bureau rec.

question, of course. that a very mild
Winter will start the early fruits into
precocious bloom that may be
blighted by frosts, sleet storms and
the like. This is a misfortune, but
all agricultural enterprises seem to me
to be mere invitations to misfortune,
since in fine growing years of big crop
causes overproduction and low prices,
while in years of blighted crops the
price Is high, but nobody has much
produce to sell
People who think about seasons that
begin too well and end badly are con-
fusing climate with weather. The
climate Of the District of Columbia is
stable affair that has not changed,
according to records; but its weather
goes in cycles, the cycles being far
from ever revolutions like the cycle
of hands around a clock face They
are subject to unpredictable reversals,
innumerable exceptions. A snowstorm
OF half a days duration In March
causes the old folks to shake their
heads and say 1t wasn't scewhen they
were young.

back yards are so messy because old
newspapers have blown in. broken
pieces Of boards are around, usually
there is tin can or two and the garb-
age has usually overflowed from its
can"
We'll, I'll tell you what we will do.
Tomorrow morning we will look at
our back yard"
An early morning survey showed that
there was some old paper, that the
back fence was sagging in a few places
and that some bushes needed pruning.
The sunken well which held the garb-
age can had kept that spot looking
neat and tidy. Uncle Peter was glad
to see Joan's new appreciation Of thta
type of garbage can. Hitherto she had
taken it for granted. His quick eye
saw a broken piece Of tagging and
some sagging back steps. He made a
note of these and sent home a small
rake for Joan to work with in their
cleaned-up back yard. He telephoned
the organization which had registered
men out of work, and soon made ar
rangements to put his yard in ship
shape fashion.

~ HADOW THE WEASEL was i'm
pudently satisfying his hunger
on scraps of meat clinging to
~ some bones in the den of Yowler
the Bobcat, with Yowler sleeping
close by. OF course, Yowler knew moth
ing of 1t. It never had occurred to
Yowler that any one would be bold
enough or impudent enough TO enter
his den while he was at home. lndeeo,
there were few who would dare enter II
even if he were not at home. SO YoWler
slept and Shadow tore the bits OF meat
from the bones.
In his greed Shadow soon forgot
where he was. Hitherto he had taken
the greatest care not to make the
slightest sound. Now in his greed he
tore fiercely at bit of meat. and the
bone moved and family ratified against
, another bone. Instantly Yowler's eyes
few open. You know that there Is a
saying that some people sleep with one
eye open. OF course, this isn't strictly
true. 1t merely means that they sleep
so lightly that the slightest sound Will
awaken them. Yowler is like that. The
noise made by those bones was very
slight, but it was sufficient to cause his
eyes to fly open.
For a moment he couldn't believe
that he really saw what he seemed to
see. There. right before him, was a
small person dressed in white with the
impudence to be stealing his food right
under his nose. Once sure that he was
really awake, and that his eyes were not
deceiving him, he knew instantly who
1t was.

that those bones were his instead of
Yowler's. There is nothing slow about

Everyday Psychology
Intelligence.
By DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.


Walking and talking are fundamental
human activities. You can predict a
great deal about human intelligence in
the making by noting the appearance
Of these fundamental achievements.
One begins to learn the fundamentals
early in life. This plain fact has led
psychologists to pay more attention to
the intelligence of children. From such
studies they may predict what given
individuals adult intelligence Is likely
to be.
AS a rule. those who become superior
individuals learn TO walk when they are
about l3 months old and to talk when
they are about year old.
Average individuals normally learn to
walk when IA months old and to talk
when they are l6 months old.
Those who represent something less
than normal adults In the making do
not as q rule learn to walk until they
are about years old, nor to talk until
they are nearly years old.
Conditions Of health will affect ones
activities, sometimes retarding them
beyond the period of their normal ac-
QUESTION.
The authors OF intelligence tests have
not always selected the right sort of
activities as a basis for their mental
measurements, Nor have they begun
early enough, although some are be-
ginning 10 surinise that infancy is the
best time to make mental measure

n is Springtime, and my spirits rise
as I observe the changes which
Nature brings with the new season.
L I enjoy Winter and Summer, but
even more I like the Autumn and
the Springtime.
Our old sun now takes less south
erly path across the sky-at least, that
is how it seems to US. The change
really is due to the fact that the
North Pole is not now so much tilted
away from the sun as in December.
We get a more direct view of the sun
as the earth turns around in the mo-
ton which gives us day and night.
Next Saturday you may read in the
Corner about trip through the Ap-
palachian Mountains Much of my life
is spent in travelling, and like to tell
about the sights I see.
Two things I should like you to
remember. One is that I always write
the Corner in advance before go
for a long trip.
The other point is that you do not
need to put off writing for leaflets
when you learn that am on a long
trip. I have assistants who handle
leafiet requests for me. They are very
careful and try never to disappoint any
one when the correct address is given.

TO get the best wear from rugs a
homemaker should treat them
with the respect which is their
Il due. This is especially true OF
Oriental and other fine hand
made rugs which were never made TO
withstand the terrific wear which they
must endure. In the countries where
these rugs are made, shoes are removed
on entering a dwelling and footwear
becoming indoor use is put on. Here In
the Western countries no such regard Is
paid the marvellous textiles. Hard soled
shoes. often mud-stained are tramped
across these floor coverings without a
thought. The life in this part of the
world is such that to change this would
be extremely difficult II not impossible,
so the rugs must wear out sooner than
they really should. In order to prolong
their existence some suggestions are
offered today.
Use rug Innings when rugs would
otherwise be placed directly on hard
wood floors. This lining may be felt
rubber or wadded paper such as is put
under carpets. In foreign lands felt
floor coverings are frequently used over
a floor on which rugs are placed. To-
day there is growing tendency to car
a plain color it provides splendid
background for rugs, prolonging their
life hundred fold. A patterned carpet
should not be used for such a back
ground. Rugs do not belong on car
pet which has design in it.

No, sir, he wasn't there. He had lodged

in the light until his eyes became used
to it, His stub of a tail twitched an
grily, and when his eyes had become
adjusted to the light he glared all

it should not show. The lining when
of felt or rubber clingS to the floor as
there Is tenacity in each of these mate
rails, in rubber because it has an adhe-
sive quality. not mucilagenous, but nev-
ertheleSs existent. The tiny hairs which
are in felt give it a clinging element,
so that whichever material is used it
clings to both the rug and the floor.
Wadded paper should be used under
large rugs only, as it has no clinging
quality. However, on floor size rugs,
furniture placed thereon as we'll as the
inherent weight of the rug itself will
prevent the rug from slipping on its
soft lining.
Machine made floor coverings are Of
Western manufacture made for the
tread of heavy shoes, yet even so car
pets are lined and rugs last far longer
II felt or rubber Innings are used under
them.
Another thing 1t is wise for the home
decorator to realize is that some rugs
should be used as wall hangings or
covers for tables, couches, etc. Two
outstanding rugs Of this sort are the
Ghileem (Kileem or Kilim), and silk
Oriental rugs Many of the Cashmere
(Shemakha) rugs. and especially of
these antique kinds, deserve better
treatment tnan the tread of feet. Rare
rugs Of small size particularly are apt
to be used as wall decorations by con-
noisSeurs.
Apart from the Oriental rugs as
hangings, there are some homemade
rugs which deserve this treatment
chiefly because the designs are too pic
torial to be appropriate for floors.
There are also some choice embroidered
rugs and those in needlepoint done in
yarns not heavier than those employed
oy the Oriental rugnakers, and these
are more at home as table covers or
wall hangings than floor rugs.
In deciding what rugs to use on floors
and what to apply to the other uses
described, the weight, age, condition,
size, and value Of the textiles should be
considered.
