Lootzkzg Forward It was dusk as I ventured out of my small cottage close to the sea shore to gather small bits of wood, which, after drifting with the tide, had been cast upon the sandy shore by the white capped waves and there allowed to dry and bleach in the hot sun. Tho encumbered by my act of gathering an armiful of the drift wood, my eyes presently fell on the still horizon of the sea shore. The azure heavens were tinsled with an orange hue, with a touch of red and purple, which caused my mind to turn back to younger days, to the many longings which I had felt on evenings such as this. The sun had sunk in the western sky, leaving a dark streak as black as onyx overspreading the sky. This warned me that the calmness of the evening might soon be broken, so I hastened back to my cottage, soon had a fire glowing on my hearth, and proceeded to prepare my evening meal. After finishing a hearty meal I decided to devote the remainder of the even- ing to the reading of a good book. I had become absorbed in my reading when a crash that shook my house brought me to my feet. I realized that a terrific storm was approaching and set about closing windows. Flashes of lightning disclosed swaying trees and torrents of rain pouring down. I sank back in my chair resolved to lose myself in my book. I became so absorbed that for a little time my mind was at rest. Perhaps I fell asleep, I cannot tell how long a time elapsed, but a loud crash of thunder caused me to spring to my feet. An unknown voice came to me from, apparently the air above my head. Bly knees trembled. I sprang to my feet but could scarcely stand. The voice now seemied to come from behind me. I wheeled around. In the window, which I had tightly closed, but which now stood open, I beheld a purple and white bird of immense size, strange and unusual, but resembling in a marked degree the emiblem of my Alma Mater's seal. Its wings were purple, the rest of its body ivory white. In its talons it carried a scroll. It whizzed by my head, circled the room three times, dropped the scroll at my feet, and then uttered a screech which terrified me so that I sank to my knees and hid mv face in mv hands. It brushed by me and flew from the room. i 0 Fearfully I raised myself from my 'crouching posture, and at last mustered up courage enough to pick up the, scroll and unroll it. These lines greeted my eyes: The greatest picture ever produced in Hollywood, Beware of Blonflsn has just been released. The leading role is taken by Ivillie VVenzel, supported bv Seymour Reid, .Ioe Wlillis Downs and Arthur Preston in leading casts. i Lyle Thweatt, of the Thweatt-Brown Circus,', escaped death today when he fell from a rope. He appears with the circus as a tight-rope walker. I fuk K 1 Q Qf Page 26 ..... v ,QQ yy: -..ttu..u,.o,ns,snn, QQQ. .un ....
