Room Reflects Your Personality
 If Unique Lamps Are Featured
By BETTY WELLS

a lamp that belongs in that par ticular spot. Let it introduce line, form and color as well as lighting proper.
 Personally I think there have been too many white lamps the past few seasons. I love them in place that they fit, but they shouldn't be introduced just willy nilly. The cosmetic tones in shades are nice and suggest interesting variation, and of course now that beige is such a high fashion, it presents wonder ful chance to do things with lamp shades. Remember, too, all the fine jewel tones in pottery bases that can do such wonders for a room Pink, of course, is fiattering and i'm portant in decoration now and can be most successful for a lamp shade. Don't forget what a lot an unusual braid or trimming can do for a plain shade, too"

Mysterious Footprints of Man on His Way to HeP

And a Vindictiye Horse Started All This Queer
 Business

Bath, N. C.-North Carolina's S state government has officially taken control of eight shallow pits 100 yards off the main highway near here, the source of legend almost a century old. The legend:
 A very profane country gentleman named Elliott, with his madcap companions, was given to racing on Sunday. One Sabbath as he gall loped down the lane Elliott shouted to his steed to either take him in a winner or take him to hell.
 Whereupon, his penitent compan- ions reported, the horse dug its hooves into the soft earth in two mighty leaps and hurled the rider against nearby tree, killing him. The horses hoofprints still remain. Ed Guitar, nearby farmer, says the pits were made into a mudwallow for his hogs, but refused to vanish. Grown men recall now, as children, they filled the pits with dirt on the way to school, returning later to find the prints fresh as ever.

she got the louder his voice sounded. Granny would stop once in while and cock her head on one side and listen. Presently she reached point where she could see Blacky on the top of tall pine tree. He was leaning forward so as to look down, and it was very plain to see that he was watching something very exciting down below, and he was cawing so that Granny Won- dered that it didn't give him sore throat. She smiled to herself when she saw that Blaeky was so interested in what he was looking at that he didn't see her coming. It has long been Blacky's delight to torment old Granny Fox by tell ing everybody within sound of his voice where she is when he sees her. So now Granny smiled and crept forward very, very carefully, so as not to be seen or heard, and presently she reached a place where she could keep out and see what it was that was exciting Blacky so. What was it? Why, it was Peter Rabbit playing dodge with Reddy Fox.
 q thought I'd find that scamp Reddy," muttered Granny. When Blacky makes a fuss like that it is usually because Reddy is some where around. I think I'll join in the game and show Reddy that, smart as he is, his old granny is smarter. It is high time that i'm pudent Peter Rabbit was served up for Fox dinner"
 Now, it is no wonder that Blacky the Crow was excited. That game ot dodge wasn't a game for fun at all. Oh, my, no! It was very much more exciting than a game for fun ever could be. You see, if Peter should get caught he would not only lose the game but he would lose his life as well.
 Just as old Granny Fox made up her mind that she would take a hand and show Reddy how to catch Peter something happened. Peter suddenly stopped lodging and start ed for a big pile of brush as fast as he could go, lipperty-lipperty-lip. Granny saw what he was trying for and sprang out to head him off, but she was just too late. Reddy, fol- lowing close at the heels of Peter, was just too late, too. Peter was safe under the big pile of brush!
