J'My mother always kept me at the washing and iron ing and, scrubbing when I got big enough to do it ,but she never would let me help her with the cooking. She was a good cook. it made her crazy to have me messing around I s'pose it did! .but I wish some times she could have bothered with me.

Since 1 hve been in foreign lands the fact has at last come home to' me that, the navy is not maintained for the purpose of waging wars; but rather for the purpose of assuring our country of peace. Especially I find thi3 true while in Sydney and Auckland as our visits there afforded us the opportunity ot associating with the people . of those two great cities and I ant sure that we have, made many friends wherever, we have gone."i The navy not only has educa tional courses to fit its personnel for return to. civil life, 'but it pro vides competent instructors as well. The navy is strong for good, clean athletics. We have i church services on board ship and the routine drills keep us mental ly alert and physically fit. So you see that when my enlistment expires I expect to return home a better man, morally, mentally and physically. Thanks to the "navy. I hope that you will find it pos sible to comment on the value of the navy editorially . on October 27. We in the navy believe tn the importance of its service to the country and would like to have everyone acquainted with its men and its work. T. R. RHODES, San Pedro, California.

The board was given the choice of buy ing either these two machines or a Multigraph machine, but decided that considering the present finan cial status of the school system, the choice made would ; be the wiser of the two. The victim of a motor-car acci dent was being examined by the village magistrate. "You say you didn't see his number?" the magis trate remarked. "Could you swear to the man?" "Well," answered the country man, "I did. but I don't think he heard me." But even in that at my home last week. Have you relatives in the east end of Long Island?" An irishman had received . an anonymous note, stating that if he did not "leeve five hundred dol lars under a certain rok by nine P. M. on Friday jaite his wife wud be kidnapped on Sunday morning." The Irishman appeared at the slated place at 9 p. m. promptly, and was faced by " the masked writer of the anonymous note. Well, what are you going .to do about it?" growled the kid napper. "I ain't got no five hundred dollars, sir, and I know I can't get but I am sufficiently interested in your proposition, sir, to ask you not to reduce the ransom."
