Patsy : paused in astonishment, for Marion had always seemed so sslf. contained and distant and had kept so utrlctlv to herself that Patsy could not Imagine her crying. "fiio you have t-ad news?" she said breathlessly, bending over 'Marlon." - : "No." ' mumbled Marion, burying her head In the pillows. , ' , . "But I'm never coming back 'here--! hate it. No one ever include me lw anything or cares whether I have a good time or not." "Why," gasped Patsy, "we didn't think you wanted to play rouad with us; you always seemed to he studying ' and " ' Whatr asked Mai ion. sitting tip . suddenly. "You might as well tell me why you all hate me,' : .,- .-- :.. -' -- '"" , ' ' "We think you're stunning said Patsy. "But you always m ere so short with us that we thought you .were a grind and all that sort of thing "then " you know you said you didn't skate,5, o how could we ask you to go long, on our winter picnics. And you said you hated dancing, so we never - naked you to the dances, and you didn't have a banjo and never said anything about playing., so we .couldn't ,ask you to Join the glee club; and you didn't tide, so how could we invite you.; to go with us? But there isn't a girl who hasn't tried to , fix her hair like yours snd copy-" your hats. How do you ' ever manage 'em ?" i , "I'll do your hair for you for supper," said Marlon, unbending for the first time since she had come to the Barker school. "And I think your brown hat would 1 be lovely if it were turned up Just a wee bit in the back." , "Do you !" exclaimed Patsy; "well, lay, if you fix that hat I'll teach you 11 the new -dances and next year " 'Maybe. I wilt come back," said Mar lon slowly. "I guess it's knowing how to do things that makes one popular; that's why . you're such a favorite, f etsy ; you can do everything." "Except trim hats and look like a thousand dollars and be agreeable to my roommate," said repentant Patsy. 'I'm going to" learn' to ride -tiorseback and dance this tomnts1, and I've a lot of the dandiest candy recipes at home," said Marlon. "Just, wait!" Marion Jumped up from the bed and began tak ing the pins out of her roommate's hair. It was a delighted and changed Patsy who came down to supper that night and Marion flushed with pleasure when a chorus of approval went up from the girls and Patsy trade a low bow and Introduced her as Mile. Blaine, ' V "Do mine! Do mine!" asked one and then another and that evening the shy. girl had more attention than .Patsy herself. So, honey, if you are at school and wonder why you are not popular, i take : Patsy's advice and learn to do everything and. one particular thing better than anyone else, - The more things you can do and the more things you know the better time you will have in this old world, whether In school or out. : - -High Collars Appear - Is the pneumonia blouse doomed? .

And a 'long run it surely is for him to keep out of danger. .Every once in a while we read about a giant "turtle.; One was brought in from the Maine coaast recently that scientists declare had lived for 600 years. But after 500 years of freedom at sea it could not accustom itself to captivity and died in five days, which seems a great pity., Eagles, crocodiles, elephants and turtles hold the record for long lives among the animal peope. Many, many turtles are captured annually for their oil and sheltr They are also used for food and fertiliser, so -that not all have an opportunity to enjoy their full ouu years or lire.-x For a time it looked as if the automo biles would push man's good friend, the horse, into the far corner, and leave him no way to earn his living. But slowly he is coming back into his own, especially on the farms. The tractors and other farm machinery are fine for large farms, but for the small f arm. the horse is the most dependable ally. He lasts longer and doesn't need so many tires, doesn't get stuck in the mud and when he is through plowing he can be used for hauling and other odd jobs that the tractor simply - could not fit into. Imagine a tractor taking the vegetables to market ' For small fields the horse is better than the tractor. So even on large farms horses are kept in reserve for thetime when the tractor gets out of order Another item in favor of the horse is that while he is useful all the year, the tractor, after the plowing, harrowing and cultivating, stands idle and does nothing to help pay Its expenses. So the horse is still sure of his comfortable corner la - the big farm. - SUNDAY CONCERT I HCLSKN'S OOtlWOIL CRIST COW. CUT ORCHESTRA THIS ASTIR. NOON. MONTI AUSTIN SINOS. AO MISSION FREE.
