"He's a professor in the Harvard

affectionately derisive. "He looked
at me just the way you're looking
now"
Mrs. Sentry smiled. IT don't

It's just that you young people be-

"Poor dear!" Barbara murmured.
''That's just what Professor Brace

holding something back; but she
was too wise to ask questions, to
force reluctant confidence.

repeated. 'And of course on the

Plucking Produces Tailor-Made Dog;
Turns Pups Into Canine Fashion Plate

The terrier is tailor-made dog.
He's a product of civilization, being
no more a creature of the wild than
his boss. It's just as fitting for a
terrier to spend his life ungroomed
as it is for the gentlemen of the era
to wander unshaven. Or, for that
matter, for the ladies to defy the
dictates of fashion, to the last hair
dresser, and be natural, asserts an
authority in the Washington Star.
BY grooming is meant stripping
and plucking. Every one knows that
a dog of the heavy-coated type must
shed, come springtime. Otherwise
there are skin troubles and general
discomfort. Terriers fall under this
classification. OF course, if Pups
isn't plucked he'll shed some. And
if dads hair wasn't cut it'd shed
some, too, after it had grown as
long as Mother Nature intended in
the first place. When Pups is re-
Ieved of his winter coat in the
proper manner, he emerges a ca
nine fashion plate.
Taking terriers as whole, pluck
ing makes the greatest difference
in wire fox terrier. Scotties and
sealyhams, etc.. still resemble scot
ties and sealyhams with all their

winter wool. A wire terrier is prac-
tically unacceptable as such when
it's heavy coated. It looks like
cross between a French poodle and
a floor mop.
Now then, as to the method-it's
painless. An instrument is used that
resembles a short-toothed comb,
with sharp edges. This "stripper"
is run through the coat (by HANDY,
thinning it down and shaping it up.
Dead hairs, ready to come out any
way, are plucked between the
thumb and finger. ALI in all, there's
nothing to it to give the dog any
discomfort. Nails are clipped and
filed, furnishing the manicure, and
Pups is washed and ready to be
admired. The job can be done for
small sum, including everything.

self as extremely busy. She often
said, a little complacently, my
days are so full, you know!"
This morning, after breakfast and
the mail-there was a letter from
Phil at New Haven-she consulted
with cook, and then for an hour or
two she was engaged with Miss
Simpkins, the sempstress who came
in by the day.
While she was being fitted, she
heard the limousine return, and
wondered whether Eli would know
why the office had telephoned to
Arthur. But Eli was deaf, and-it
could have been nothing worth in
quiry. Their lives had long since
assumed pattern. They dined with
their friends; their friends dined
with them: they went to the SYM
phony in the fall before going South
for the winter; they saw the better
plays. Arthur had his golf on week
ends, in a foursome Of years stand
ing that included Dean Hare, Judge
Ray, and Ernest Waring. The
Hares were probably their most in
innate friends. Gus Loran, Arthur's
partner, did not play golf. Riding
was his sport. They exchanged din
ners with the Lorans, but not often,
because of Mrs. Loran. They were
on old and cordial terms with a
dozen or q score Of families like
their own. Mrs. Sentry thought of
their ordered lives complacently.
Then, remembering Barbara's adj
venture the night before, she hoped
Barbara would, another time, be
wiser, and that Johnny Boyd would
be sobered by his thrashing at the
policeman's hands, and she won

decided not to tell her. Then she

ing hard tennis in way that made
it look easy, in q fashion so con-

RULES FOR A SAFE
AND SANE JULY 4
DR.. Riley Urges Against
irresponsible Use
OF Fireworks

In connection with last years
celebration of the Fourth of July,
nearly 800 persons in Maryland,
were injured by accidents due to
fireworks. In the total were 217
children under the age of fifteen.
One child eight years old died
from burns sustained when her
dress caught fire in lighting a
sparkler.
Because similar, or even more
serious, accidents are likely to
happen this year unless great care
is taken to prevent them, DR.. R.
H. Riley, Director of the State
Department of Health strongly
urges that safer and saner ways
of celebrating the national holiday
be followed this season, than
through the irresponsible use of
fireworks or other explosives.
The State and Baltimore City
Departments of Health and other
agencies cooperated viii the Mary
land Society for the Prevention
of Blindness in assembling infor-
nation concerning injuries report
ed over the Fourth last year.

said, 'that 295 persons suffered

Harvest will be pertty general
ly commenced throughout the
country during the course of the
present week. The grain is ripen-
ing very fast, and it is the opinion
of many that the crops will be
much better than was apprehend-
ed from their backward appearance
in the spring. We are glad to see
that the accounts from almost all
parts where it was feared the
crops would fall far short of an
average one, are equally favor
able. When the farmer is en-
abled to reap the reward of his
labour, there is no branch of
American industry no occupation
in life, however humble, that is
not materially benefited by the
result. From the products of the
soil spring the source of all health,
wealth and happiness of mankind;
and to the goodness of merciful
Providence are we indebted for
all the blessings we enjoy"
In the House of Representative
on Saturday, the Senate's bill to

taken

from the Hagerstown Free press,
dated July A, 1892:
aTbis day, the Fourth of July,
1922 completes the 56th year of
.,r independence as a nation. In
al Of our principal Cities towns
and villages it will be consecrat-
cd to the goddess of Liberty
dodicated to noble feelings and
patriotic recoIlections. There is
something peculiarly pleasing in
the return of this day. All the
ovalted feelings of our nature APP
noar TO be aroused, and while we
hold in sacred remembrance the
memory of the master spirits who
declared us independent and sup
ported their declaration with
blood, we feel an innate desire to
return our acknowledgements to
the Divine dispOser of events for
his protection heretofore, and to
supplement- Him for continuance
of his favors. AS it passes away,
our national flag will seem to kiss
The breeze with a prouder bear
ing; and every American who
properly appreciates and prizes
the blessings we enjoy, will walk
the earth with firmer step and
feel warmer glow kindle upon
his cheek when he remembers
that he is a citizen Of the United
States. Liberty, as we enjoy it
in it's fullest and purest sense is,
indeed, a blessing blessing that
we who have never been slaves,
cannot adequately appreciate.
"The day will be celebrated in
Hagerstown in a particularly in
teresting manner by the members
Of the Beneficial Society, who
will march in procession to the
Lutheran Church attended by the
different Sabbath schools of the
town Here we will see the ris-
ing youth the future props of our
country, taught to reverence a
day set apart as national jubilee.
We think that no better way
could be devised to show proper
sense Of regard for the day, than
to inculcate into the mind of
youth a reverence for the privi-
leges we enjoy, instead of passing
away the time in revelry and
dissipation. The following very
beautiful ode was written by
John O. Adams for a similar
occasion:
Sing to the Lord sound OF
praise;
Assemble We who love his name
Let congregated millions raise
Triumphant Glory's loud acs
claim.
From earth's remotest regions
come;
Come greet your Maker and
your King;
With harp, with timbreI and with
drum,
His praise let hill and valley
sing.
YoaR praise the Lord will not
disdain,
The humble soul is his delight
SAINTS, on your couches, swell tn

night.
Rejoice in glory! bid the storm

And while your lips the chorus

Mr.. Parker, who was appointed

in recognition of the splendid work
done by him as chairman of the

This election has been called ac-
cording to the constitution adopted

generally hope that he will be con-

every reason to believe that he will
receive a splendid vote in most OF
the districts of the state, some Of
which most likely will go 100 per-
cent, based on reports received al
