PLAIN GARDEN VARIETIES

l wonder of you've found the many
kinds Of love which grow,
Or should ask-When, likely, you've
seen far more than know?
Well-if you have, you'll find it very
easy to recall
That first kind, known as puppy love,
that came when we were
small.
Then there's that very prevalent
type-Christmas love. I'd say;
Because attacks come in late Fall,
and gifts chase it away.
It's closely allied with a brand,
known as the birthday kind,
After the anniversary, no ferVency
we find.
There's one that's hOt-then cold
then hot. "TwOuld drive me tO
despairi
I'd never understand affection var
led like the air,
But there is love that's perfect; it's
unchanging and divine:
1t knows no bounds nor ending; so
may it be yours and mine!

PIG TO PORK BARRELS

good wife of Boston, wandered into
the garden of wealthy and wrathy
/ gentleman named Capt. Robert Keayne,
who killed the wandering porker. Mrs.
Sherman sued him for damages and
lost-in a gentleman's court She had
done a lot OF talking. so Keayne sued
her for defamation OF character. He
won again-also In a gentleman's
court
Then there was a turmoil Boston
rocked with indignation-that part OF
IL composed of the common people.
They were in the majority, but very
much in the minority. so far as their
part OF the government OF the colony
was concerned.
The case was carried TO the legisla-
tive assembly then known as The
Great and General Court" II was com
posed Of the governor. magistrates and
deputies from the several towns but
the magistrates, who were gentlemen,
although outnumbered. held the bal
ance of power. No wonder, when they
had made a rule which said that no
act should pass unless approved By
the majority OF magistrates
Mrs. Sherman's pig became the SYM
Dol Of fair play and equal representa-
ton for the common people. The con-
troversy ragged for seven years. The
upshot Of il WIS that, instead OF hav-
ing single legislative body controlled
by a select group as the magistrates
desired-or by a majority vote Of all,
as the deputies desired-Massachuse
got an assembly Of two coordinate
branches Thus was instituted the sys-
TEN Of checks and balances In govern
ment which was later incorporated in
the provisions for our national con-
gress and In virtually every legislature
In the land.
So Mrs. Sherman's martyred pig,
