The rest let him alone.
 They watched brave Scouty work a while, and then kind Windy, with a smile, said, "It is time to stop, when such hard labor makes you groan.
 'TH finish up the job, somehow. The lid is coming off, right now" Then Windy gave one real hard jerk that brought a big surprise. A strange form promptly jumped right out, and then the Tlnles heard 1t shout, "Ah, ha! I'll bet l am a treat for a1l your little eyes! "Don't run. There's no cause for alarm. I promise you l mean no harm. I am the old Banana Man. You tots have set me free.

Team victories invariably de
pend on the showing Of junior
crews and every year each club
must develop and train new jun
1or competitors.
It was the surprising high cali
Der of w. c. c. Juniors which
brought the unexpected cham
pionship this year. But these
lads graduated automatically tc
the intermediate class by theil
victories and so the club will have
to start all over again.
What They Are Doing
And that is what Harry, the
padding maestro of the Potomac
and his gang are doing.
The first big job on their hands
is to turn up a covey of novice
paddlers, and that comes close tU
being the toughest part of the
whole thing. The Washington
Canoe Club is broadcasting invita-
lions to youngsters with a pad
ding turn to come and join up.
There are four chaps who are
working out for shot at next
years Junior honors under the W.
c. C. aegis, but it's yet too early
to figure out their possibilities.
knight Hopeful
However, Knight and his col
leagues are hopeful. The four lads
are Ramjeau, Weise, Yingling and
Jones.
Eddie Trilling, who was in three
winning Junior boats for w. c. c.,
appears destined to go far. He
likes the game, is naturally ath-
letic. lives clearly and works out
diligently.
Bill Rhodes, Russell Swami,
Bill Grant and H. c. Florance will
do much for the club in the inter
mediate class next year. All are
keen followers Of the sport and
have the competitive urge.
Knight, Everett Rodman, Rich.
ard Ackad and Johnny Long did
nobly in the recent regatta in the
senior class, and there is no rea.
son to believe that they will not
do as well or even better in future
meets.

Just one year ago my pop was so
up in the air that I had to write this
column myself. And now, just during
the space of 365 days his energy has
been so reduced that he is letting this
column go to wrack and ruin. He
didn't even have one last week, and
if he tells you it was because he was
baking my birthday cake, don't you
believe him. He baked a cake once and
piece accidentally hit him on the
head and he has not been right since
l hope you won't repeat this. I'd
hate to think that 1 was the one to
spread such news about, especially
when he tries to be a right good pop
at times.
But l must get to my task and get
this column written. Somebody has
to hold up the Scoop family reputa-
ton, and it might as we'll be I. In
fact it has to be 1, seems as though.
l hope this stops my pop and MON
from wondering. They sit around and
ask each other if I look normal, and
how much intelligence can be expected
of me at the age of one year, and then
they run to a baby book of instruc-
tions and see if I measure up to some
standard.
They took me to a doctor the other
day to see what my chest expansion
was and how large my head was, and
if was going to be a shorty, like my
pop. Ny MON said if she thought 1 was
going to be that short she would get
one of those stretchers.
1 try not to get ahead of what the
book tells them, but it is hard to hold
in at times. l try not to say too many
words for fear my parents will want
to take all the credit, but I'll have to
be careful. The book says l ought to
be saying only two words, but so
far I've let twelve slip out uninten-
tionally. Maybe they won't catch on if
l try to be a little slow about walk
ing. But it is hard to sit around wher
l could be getting into so many things
about the house.
They tried to fool me Sunday, They
The Republican., 1935-01-17

baked a cake and set it before me
and then gave me a graham cracker
to eat while they ate the cake. But
while they weren't looking 1 made a
grab for piece and managed to get
big hunk of icing before they caught
me. A fine way to do me on my birth
day! Some day I'll get a whole pie
or cake from the pantry and they
won't know anything about it.
x*&
I could tell a few things on my pop.
He tries to make people think he gets
up bright and early. He may get up
bright, but not early. Just ask the
Boss Editor l wonder if he tells the
Boss Editor that I'm the fault of
that-that he has to heat my milk
and cereal before he gets anything to
eat himself. Personally I believe that
is a lot Of hooey. Don't they think I
can take it?
A year makes a lot of difference in
my thinking. Last year l was curious
about the gold standard, imitation, ma
tional debt, etc. Now it's about Haupt-
mann, Amerlia Earhart mysterious
explosions and the Saar basin. I'm in
terested in the Saar basin only be-
cause it reminds me of my big bath
tub, and you know how like big bath
tubs. If you done, why don't you come
up sometime and watch me swim-and
stay for a duck dinner-and I've al
ready got the ducks.
I'm really smarter than you think
am. If you don't think so, here are
some questions my nom asked me on
my first birthday, and here are my
answers:
Q. What's a prospectus? A. A man
who finds gold.
Q. What's a quotation? A. An an
swer to q division sum.
Q. What are letters in sloping type
called? A. Mysteries.
Q. Who was Noah's wife? A. Joan
