Do you s'pose they 11 really pass a law 'with us a-lookin' on?" Shades of our former civics books! Why does Billy want to know so much about the gov ernment, all of a sudden? The - day of all days arrives. Teacher, ' possessing a desire to teach actual life-situations, or ganizes her flock of truthseek ers. The girls have promised and "crossed . their hearts" that no giggling shall be heard from them. The . boys have declared unswerving, allegiance and obed ience to teacher.

One bright i boy with a statis tical mind counts bald heads, another computes the density of tobacco smoke per square foot. In whispers, teacher provides the foot-notes to this page from the book of law-making. And, like many a . foreign language stu dent, these wondering learners read wholly 1 by the footnotes! (Too much machinery, you say? Too many monkey wrenches In it, perhaps). "Ma, what! makes legislatures so slow? Do they like to be slow?" We with Ma leave those ques tions of Billy's pertinent or impertinent though they be to be answered by those of "whom it may concern." - EC. IS CULLED BEYOND FALLS CITY, Feb. 21 Geo. C.
