About People Who Advise 1 suppose as long as this good old world keeps a'rollin' along there'll always be folks that'll give advice to anybody fur nothin'I And it's a shame. 'Course I ain't got nothin' against them perfessional advisors. They're paid to give it, and it ain't given unlcss it's paid for. But these people that'll give loads of advisin' that ain't called fur,--well, I don't like that kind very fancy. I remember 'way back in the Eighties-that year we had the grandest blizzard ya'ever see--in that same year, a trifle before we had that that blizzard, a young whipper-snapper from New York arrived in Town. He pranced inta' the hardware store Cthat's the town folk's meetin'-place? and asked whar he cud find a place to board. We-all, rightnway, Hitch Thomas Cthat's our first seo-c-leet-nmnl told him that Widda O'Connell ' would welcome him heartly. Naw, Widda' O'Connell was one of those buxom lrishwomen that cooked the grandest cookin' in the whole town. She was, in so many words, an expert on that subject. There wan't nothin' you cud tell her about vit- tles and such, Wa-all anyhow, to get back to my storye-this hyar young upstart thanked Hitch for the recommendation, and thin he turned around, sudden-like, and nodded down at the counter. Right in a flash he sez, UNow sir, if you would take advice from worthy sources, you would clean those tubs and other clutterings off the counter and pile them in the back of the store, where they wouldn't be in the customer's wayn. NNow, listen h'yar, a young fcllor, I ain'ta goin' to take yer advice. Besides, if nobuddy saw the things, where w'ud they be knowin' what to buy? So, smarty, ya' butter skidaddle and leave me to me own business, Good day!N With-this Hitch dismissed the fellow. In fact Hitch always hinted kinda' strong-like when he didn't want anybody's presence. Well for a coupla days, the stranger lived very peacefully at Widda O'Gonnoll's. He seemed to be thrivin' too, on the widow's good cookin'. One fine day this fella happened to stroll into the widdie's kitchen, and stood for a second a'watchin' her mix up her well-known sponge-cake. Uwidar O'Connell,H he began. HSure, and what is it that you'd be a wantin'?U MI've been watching you, madam, and I noticed how you mixed up that cakelu Sure and cud it be that ye dldn't like the way I did it? she re- torted, suddenly bristling with uncontrolled rage as only an Irish per- son can. Wwell, now Mrs. O'Connel1g I believe that you've put just a mite too much sugar in that?W

, r Y WNow, ye a'listen here, fellow. l've been a nnkinliSn9nzB-02k0'f0T nigh onto thirty years, and I sure don't need a man's advice.u Well, this argument went on and on, until the Irishwoman finally burst out, NNow, if ye can but wait a second young man, I'll tell ye a thing or two, and may the saints have pity on yo. I ain't a-goin' to Stand fur people directin' me how to make my cakes and run me home.n Well, it fin'lly ended up with the young feller's leavinf town, and, believe it or not, as he was stoppin' on the train he seid to the conductor, Ulf youfd take my advice, you'd put your hat on the other side of your head. I don't like it that wayin Valore Garland 'AB Good Citizenship Pilgrimage Each year, the Daughters of the American Revolution sponsor a Good Citizenship Pilgrimage to washington, open to High School senior girls. Each school chooses e candidate, based on schelirship, leadership, and character. From all the cfndidetes, one girl from each county is selected for the trip. The Sahettus High candidate for l9LO was Juno Austin, for l9hl, Ruth Couillxrd. Schoelboy Petrol The Schoolboy Patrol is an organization on e national scale which helps protect the smaller children. Je have had a Patrol in this school for three years, and the boys have enjoyed the work very much. They have been to Boston twice, as a reward for service. While in Boston, the pest summer, they sew a Big League game and visited Revere Bench afterwards. Members of the school forming this year's Petrol are George Wright, Herold Dutille, Robert Spencer, Nelson Russell, Fred Dearborn, and Arthur Ramsay, , Nearinq white belts, as they stand near the gate in front of the building, the Patrol boys on duty direct students across the street at recesses, noon hour, and on return to school.
