CANDLE COMMERCIAL CLUB
February g, 1887.
By Ann Aver

February g, 1887.
 Now that the holidays are ov- CT and Easter just around the cor ner, our thoughts just naturally turn to spring gardening. Crisp lettuce and Swiss chard, tender radishes and green onions chuck full of precious vitamines. Hap py Days are Here Again.. We will soon be our old "Sylph" again.
 But truly now, is there anything more fascinating than nice little garden? In the dark winter morn ings, nothing short of fire beli will get me out of bed early. But in the spring it's different.
 The beautiful sunshine filter ing thru the windows, Robin red breast singing in the willow bush, the whole world rejoicing be- cause it is spring. Isn't it great to be alive? It sets me thinking of the old home place at the edge of town-the earthly smell of freshly plowed ground, meadow larks trilling their happy song, wild roses making a picture of pink and green along the old rail fence. And fragrance! Did you ever smell anything so sweet? My! I'm getting clear off the track. After all, you folks are in terested in news of Candle.

Fred Aver has been going ar- ound with long face since his wife returned from Kotzebue: and his three pet Siberians have been sleeping in their kennels. Not that it's exactly strange for dogs to sleep in their kennels, but it seems during Mrs. Ayers absence, Fred kept the dogs in the living room most of the time. No, he wasn't lonely but the weather was too stormy for the poor dogs. Then one night one of the noble dogs in a playful at titude cheWed up Mrs. Ayers prize rabbit slippers-hence the reason for Fred's lengthy coun- tenance.

q, The President has withheld his
discretionary right to declare q
state of war exists between China
and Japan and invoke the Neu,

the failure of the two embattled
nations to break off diplomatic

SEAMAN DIES
Adding to the seriousness of

the bombs that struck the vessel
had pierced his abdomen.
While the Chinese government
offered redress for the bombing
of the ship, in which seven mem
bers of the crew were injured and
three passengers were hurt, the
President Hoover headed for Kobe,
Japan.
In doing so, the liner omitted
her scheduled call at Shanghai,
where she was to have picked UP
312 refugees, including about 100
Americans.
Determined to get as far away
from Shanghai as fast as possible,
these refugees sought to catch up
