STATE TO AID
In IMPROVING
RURAL ROUTES

Cooperation between the El Cen
tro post office, ranch patrons served
by rural routes and district of
the State Highway division will fa-
cilitate rural mail service, eliminate
delay and danger during wet wealth
er and add to the appearance of
local highways.
Rural mail boxes are to be grouped
along the paved highways and the
highway division will provide up
rights for boxes and establish and
maintain approaches when it is
necessary for the carrier to leave
the pavement to deliver mail. ac-
cording to the local postmaster.
Highway crews will paint the
boxes and uprights and keep them
in repair it patrons will purchase
the boxes. The plan was devised
as a means of improving the ap-
pearance of highways throughout
this section.
The new service will be in effect
soon on El Centro route No. /. be-
tween FL Centro and Meloland and
on Fourth street to Gebbie's cor
ner and on route No. 2, between
Imperial avenue and the Moore
Service station on the San Diego
highway.
Patrons now are being interview
ed by the local postmaster and rep
reSentatives of the highway divis-
ion. So far excellent cooperation
resulted from explanations of the
plan, said the postmaster.
The grouping of boxers will Gre
ate great saving in time as the
carrier will be enabled to serve sew
eral patrons at one stop instead of
being required to make many stops
as at present.

Jumper the Hare is very timid per-
son, as he has reason to be. He has
neither claws nor teeth wherewith to
fight. He is not big enough to find
safety in size nor small enough to hide
where some of his enemies cannot fol-
low. He cannot fly and he cannot
climb. He can only run and dodge
and he has many enemies who can
also do these things. So Jumper Is a
very timid person and sometimes Is in
clined to think that Old Mother Ma
ture quite forgot him when she was
giving out her blessings.
He was thinking of this as he sat
under a snow-covered little hemlock
tree and rather plying himself, which
Is bad thing for any one to do.
"All can do is run, and I have to
do that every day Of my life or furnish
some one good dinner" he grumbled.
"Old Mother Nature just forgot me
when she was handing out her bless
ings. Yes, sir; she just forgot me. II
they are. I just haven't any"
Just then he saw Reddy Fox pass
ing only a little way off. Reddy was
hunting. His pointed ears were alert
for any telltale sound; his sharp eyes
were watching for any movement and
his keen nose was testing every Merry
Little Breeze that came along. He
looked straight over at the little hem
lock under which Jumper was sitting,
but saw nothing to interest him and
passed on. Presently he disappeared.
Jumper resumed his silent grumbling.
mo, sir; Old Mother Nature didn't
do thing for me-" he grumbled. "She
just forgot me altogether"
Now 1t was Jumper WhO was doing
the forgetting. Reddy Fox had looked
at him, yet had not seen him, and
that was because Jumpers pure white
a little mound of the snow on which
he sat. and it was for this very pur-
pose that Old Mother Nature had
given him that white coat, a blessing
that some of his neighbors often envied
him when their own dark coats made it
so easy for others to see them. And
he had forgotten that Old Mother
Nature had given him long legs and
big feet that carried him swiftly over
snow SO soft that few others, even those
much smaller than he, could travel over
it. And he forgot that no matter what
the weather he always had at hand a
supply of food while many of his neigh
bors were starving. He was so used to
these things that ne did not THINK OF
them at all. We are most of us in
clined to be that way. We desire that
which we have not while we forget that
which we have
Presently Jumper began to feel I'M
easy. He had heard nothing, seen
nothing, smelled nothing to alarm him,
yet he was uneasy. He had feeling
that danger was near. What the dan
ger was he had no idea. 1t was merely
a feeling, but Jumper had found by
experience that often such feeling
was in truth a warning. So now he
looked carefully in all directions, es-
pecially back along the way he had
come. He saw nothing to cause alarm.
For all that his uneasiness increased
and drove him out of hiding.
II just feel it in my bones that some
one is on my trail" he muttered.
When I have that feeling there isn't
anything for me to do but keep going
until I lose it."
For short distance he hurried, run
ming in great leaps. Then he slowed
down to an easy gait, but all the time

sleight-Cf-hand performance, and then,
with a bow, he dips his bill deep into
the cone and brings up a fat, pink
grub. 1t is the infant of a gall insect
and does much damage to our young
willows.
The delighted artist bangles the worm
about, then gulpS him down with evil
dent satisfaction.
1t h not difficult to meet the friendly
little Chickadec. IN fact, he introduces
himself and announces his name. What
lot Of trouble It would save If all the
birds were so thoughtful!
Chickadees are most cheerful when
the weather seems its worst. The
thoughtful orchardist now ties fine
meat bones to some of his trees. The
taste seems to spur the hunter on, and
he goes with determination after the
borers and eggs placed by the thought
full insect mothers. Many a Wormless
apple and peach is due to the little
chicka dees' appetites.
This gay little visitor is about 5l2
inches long. His crown, nape and
throat are black. His back is gray and
slightly tinged with brown. white
space begins at his bill and spreads
over cheeks and upper part Of the
breast. forming a collar or a sort Of
with a dingy brown wash on the sides.
His wings and tail are gray with white
trimmings. His pluTage is down.. His
spouse is dressed in the same Colors.
He Goes not migrate. but is perma-
nent resident in the Northern States.
All Winter long the chickadees are
seen in floclis They hold great pow
Vows and seem to get along happily.
When the Spring arrives Mr.. Chickadee
seeks seclusion with his bride, and they
fly away to the cool. damp woods. Here
they seek a home left by a woodpecker
or takes an empty hollow in tree. If
the housing condition is acute, as it
often is. the pair must build their own
home.
After the home is completed the
search for soft, warm material to line
tie baSSinet begins. Wool. hair, feath-
ers and soft moss are the materials
used. Why the Ch!ckade2 parents who
love the snow and cold will bundle their
! babies up to their chins with the warm
est con forts is more than We can tell.
The chickadee family is worth mil
lions of dollars to US, and still the toll

$3.50 a month, besides maintenance, in
small towns.
After you get little hospital ex-
periencc, you can often get job in
a physicians laboratory and make $3.50
q month. If, besides, you can do sec
retarial work, you can get 5000 a
month.
Girls usually do laboratory work
well because they are neat and clever
with their hands. They're used to
cooking and the qualities that make a
good cook often make good laoo-
ratory chemist.
It's curious that the higher branches
CT chemistry pay no more money than
this laboratory work I've been telling
you about. For the higher work you
have a college training. These are the
people who make the great medical dis
coveries of the world. They have
those seven years of training, yet they
often make only S25 a week. And
they must be able to do abstract
thinking and have a fair for mathe-
mates This work at the top is di-
vided evenly between men and women.
But if you have the right tempera-
ment and want work which will not
be a strain on your heart you can be-
come a technician or laboratory as
sistant without college training. 1t is
a fine field for women. Ninety-nine
out of 100 laboratory assistants are
women.
There Is a little-kncwn profession
that might also interest you-that is
microscopy. There are so few in this
work that the salary is god. The pay
is about $3.50 to 5000 a month. You
do not need to go to college, but must
get a job with some one as an assist
ant. A girl with steady hands and
nerves can make good at this.

Among the many letters receive Is
one that appears again and again from
different parts of the country. My
child is as good as good can be when
he is alone with me, but as soon as
anybody comes into the house he IS
awful. He shows off until I'm SO
ashamed I don't know where to look. y
There is nothing to be ashamed
about. The child is behaving according
to his nature. The stage was set for a
show-of and he took the opportunity.
He isn't to be blamed for this. He Is
to be trained.
Usually this is the characteristic OF
the only child. but others display 1t as
we'll. 1t indicates that the child is long
ing for an audience and praise. He
wants to feel equal to those about him.
He wants to be regarded as one OF
them, not as a child who is to be seen
and not heard We have to prepare the
child against this situation by training
him to be useful, adequate and impor-
tant in a real sense.
When company is expected tell the
child about it. Give him part in the
preparation. Let him dust, set dishes
on the tray, arrange flowers, put cookies
on the plate and lay napkins ready.
Instruct him in his part. II possible
let him receive the guest with you at
the front door. Don't emphasize his
share in the receiving. Avoid making

this so he knows exactly what he is
to do.

little tray, pass a glass on a plate, hand
cake around, and the like. If he feels
he can do his part in entertaining the
guests there will be no notion of Show
ing off All reason for it has vanished.
He is as useful, he has as big part
in the affair as anybody He is at peace
with his world.
Lonely children are likely to show
off before others. The only child is
likely to lose control of himself when
company comes unless he has been
trained for the occasion. Suppressed
Children are the worst of all. If they
have been held down, if they have never
had chance to talk out loud and ex-
press all the thoughts that have been
crowding into their minds they are
going to take the first opportunity to rid
themselves of suppressed energy. That
means a scene before the guests.
If a child misbehaves before guests
discipline him as you would If they
were not there. 1t is mistake to teach
a child that he can do things before
guests that he would not dare to do
when you were alone with him. There
are children who will try to do such
things, but when they learn that you
will speak right out and that they will
receive exactly the same treatment be-
fore guests as they would If they were
not there, they behave as they ought.
