BROKEN ENGAGEMENT

HERE had never been a woman in the house
as long as Dirk could remember. Just he,
his brother Rupert, and their father. And
now, just he and Rupert. Unless, of course,
you called Mary, the housekeeper, woman.
In Dirk's rather hazy opinion, Mary was a
voice, black apron, and bunch of keys.
And naturally there were housemaids and
laundresses, and twenty or so years ago
there had been Dirk's nurse-maids, Gene

National Park Has Peaks
More Than One Mile High

The Great Smoky Mountains Nation
al park is II miles long and from Is to
10 miles wide, and in this area the APP
palachian range rises to its greatest
heights. Nowhere in the East Is there
a more massive uplift. The main rise
of the range, which seldom dips below
an altitude of 5000 feet, has so peaks
more than a mile IN height.
On the highest mountains are dense
tracts of hemlock, spruce, and balsam.
Beneath these, on the intermediate
areas, are hardwood growths where
beech forests are found in the orderly
appearance of country estate.
More than half the parks acreage
is virgin forest. including the most ex-
tensive and finest hardwood tract and
the largest tract Of red spruce in the
United States. Here also is the larg-
est variety of plant life in an area Of
similar size in the world, with 152 va
rieties of trees alone.
In contrast to these heavily wooded
areas are the mountain tops, covered
only by grass and offering unobstructed
views through blue, shifting haze.

Pitcairn Island About
Two and Half Miles Long

Pitcairn island is British possession,
of the Polynesian islands, belonging to
the Low Archipelago: in latitude % de-
grees, minutes south; longitude, 100
degrees, 8 minutes west. 1t is about
two and one-half miles long and one
mile wide. Its coast is almost perpen-
dicular and is fringed with rocks and
reefs, making it almost impossible to
land except at few points.
The interest attaching to this island
is derived from its history, beginning
in 1870, when nine British sailors, mu-
tineers Of the British ship, Bounty, to-
gether with eighteen natives of Tahiti,
six men and twelve women, landed on
1t. Their subsequent contentious re-
suited in murders and other crimes.
After ten years, John Adams and few
survivors were left. His reform, and
his manner Of teaching and supervis-
ing the little colony led to complete
change. 1t became peaceable, moral
and industrious. In 1856 the commu-
nifty (194 in number) was removed to
Norfolk island, Pitcairn having become
too small for their comfortable SUBJ
sistence. Some of the number, about
forty, returned to Pitcairn. In 1900
there were on the island 140 persons.
A colonial Office report describes the
people as having degenerated from
their former manner of living. The To-
cal government is administered by
president and parliament of five per-
sons elected BY popular vote of the
men and women.

assumed the title of emperor, and the
country the official name Of Tai Han.
In 1910, when the empire ceased to

A Special Meeting of
Local Civic Club Monday

President Rinertson, of the
Wheeler Civic Club, called a
special meeting of the Oreaniza-
ton Monday night at the bus de-
pot for the purpose of discussing
possibility of improvement on
local streets in Wheeler. While this
is not an incorporated city and
does not come under county road
programs it is necessary that local
business men provide some means
of Improvement.
1t was decided at the meeting
however. that it would be possible
to get county officials to cooperate
in the way of furnishing county
machinery without charge for
this purpose, and on motion a
committee of three was appointed
to contact the county commission
ers and county surveyor TO ascert-
ain if they can expect the 8 OF
this machinery aud the possible
cost of needed improvements.
Those appointed Oh the committee
are Frank Beachler, Mr.. Brock
mire and Pierre Taylor. They will
give a report on their findings at
the next regular meeting OF the
club to be held Friday, March 81.
The plan is to gravel the streets
and since our streets are of a rath-
er wide arrangement along the
highway the question is as to where
the gravel should be placed.
A report bv the fire equipment
purchasing committee was brief,
but the plan of purchasing the old
Wolf Point equipment was dis
couIaged. 1t is thought by that
committee that it would be best
to purchase souIS other chemical
tank, which would be better in
meeting the requirements OF the
local department. Fire Chief Cook
is expecting satisfactory results
in the near future and the plan IL
10 have available at all times a
l 900 gallon water supply at the
garage in the bus depot where it
ill be kept from freezing summer
and winter. A more complete re
1oro on this matter will be made
1t the next regular meeting OF the
