LAUGHS AT PASSING YEARS
Veteran Ninaty-One Yaars Young
' Rightly an Inspiration to Those
Who Know Him.
Comrade Seurlea from the Soldiers
borne ut Sawtelle waa over ut Sun
Gubrlcl the other day. He came by
way of the trolley cur. But he could
liave walked euHlly, had he been ao
minded.
Seventy years ago, Comrade Searlea
used often to pusa the old mission
of Sun (Jubrlei when the padrea and
the IndluiiH were still there. Sixty
years ugo he carried a musket on hla
ahoulder In the Civil war. He la now
ninety-one years young.
And so he cume buck to this old
haunt of bin the other day. We found
him sitting In the sun by the side of
the king's highway making sketches.
He drew ftiwlrmtlng pictures of the
Incompnrubly beuutlful old campanile
of Ihe mlsHlon whose bells rung out
their mesMages of peace and faith
long before the Liberty bell ln the
tower of the Stute house In Philadel
phia rung out Its deathlPMS message
In 1770. And he also sketched the old
atulrwuy of the mission whose stones
are worn with the feet of countless
Iiidlun neophytes since it was budded,
n century und a hulf ago. And a fine
sketch, too, of the Old Grapevine which
la the mother of all the vlneyurds In
California.
And we thought It a delightful expe
rience to have hud. It Isn't every day
that one meets u man ninety-two years
of age who is still an spry us a steel
rod. nnd whose mind retains all Its
uniglcal faculties. It was Inspiring.
We were proud to lift our hand to
our eyebrow and stand at salute be

at the crime in the ordinary wuy, to
be taken to a comfortable police sta
tion, to be released on bail easily
Jumped, to be convicted even, and
sent to a prison where there are good
food nnd motion pictures. But It is
quite .mother thing for the criminal
to feel the Iron juws of a bear trup
close on bis leg. A bear trap does not
coddle or release on bond.
Unfortunately, every householder
ennnot safely set a bear trap for
burglars. He might accidentally catch
himself or his wife or the children or
the dog. It It were not for that the
whole town might well turn trapper.
Electrified.
A third of the farm land ln Sweden
now uses electricity for power. Farm
ers over there are beginning to make
inquiries about electrlcnlly-propelled
plows Hiid harrows. Many of them
use electric saws to cut their firewood
und lumber. , Some even have electric
elevators that lift whole wagon loads
of hay and grain to the mow.
Swedish government officials pre
dict It'll only be a few years until
practically their whole country will be
on nn electrical basis.
Where does the power come from?
Usually, large water-power plants.
But many Swedish farmers dam small
streams and use the falling water to
generate their own.
A tip there for American farmers,
remarks the Chicago Evening Tost
Personal Interest.
Mr. BUnn stood up in court, charged
with disorderly conduct, his head
swathed In bunduges, nnd demanded u
trial by Jury.
"It's only a minor offense," advised
the judge. "Why not plead guilty, pay
a smnll fine and get it over?"
"No, judge," replied Mr. Dunn de
terminedly. "I want a trial by Jury.
The last thing I remember was when
I was standing percefully on the cor

The next thing was when two .'doc

Latest Arrival Evidently Had to Wait
Before Her Age Could Be
Matter of Notice.
The open season for park diver
sions being at hand, the Man Who
Likes the Outdoors took a seat on a
park bench and awaited events. Men,
women, children and even dogs and
cats respond to him without conscious
effort on his part, so there was noth
ing surprising about it when a little
girl walked up to hitn and climbed
upon the bench at his side.
"My name is Frances," she said
fearlessly. "What's yours?"
Before the M. W. L. O. had time to
reply another smaller child ran up
and began pulling Frances' dress, so
he asked :
"Is this your little sister?"
"Yes," replied Frances. "Her name
Is Minnie. That Is our duddy over
there on the bench," and she Indicated
him with a wave of her hand.
"How old ure you?" the M. W. L. O.
asked.
"I'm six," Frances answered proud
ly, then, with a slight touch of dis
dain, she added, nodding toward the
little Minnie, "she's only three."
The M. W. I,. O looked at the two
little girls nnd w;as ubout to ask an
other question when Frances said, this
time somewhat confidentially:
"I've got another sister at home."
"Oh, have you?" the M. W. L. O. re
sponded. "Is she older than you?"
The little girl made an expressive
gesture.
"She hasn't any ape," she said in a
matter of fact way, "she's Just born."

PECULIAR MAY DAY SPORTS
Diversion in "Merrie England" That
Went Out With the Rise of
Puritanical Ideas.
In London In olden times the chim
ney sweeps had a May day celebra
tion of their own. They gathered in
small bands, fantastically dressed,
usually with a woman smartly dressed
and glittering with spangles. One
strange figure In the group, a man
concealed in a frame of herbs and
flowers, called "Jack in the Green."
All these persons strolled the streets,
stopping to dance to the tune of a
fife and a drum and collect pennies
from the onlookers. This chimney
sweep observance of the day was the
last of the May day celebrations of
the sort in England.
As a part of the old English cele
bration of May day there was a dis
tinct set of sports meant to repre
sent the adventures of the legendary
Kobin Hood and known as the "Kobin
Hood games." Most of the charac
ters mentioned in the Itobin Hood
legend were portrayed In these games
and- there were archery and quarter
staff contests.
In Puritan times in England, May
polos were uprooted and the May
day customs come into disuse.
