SCOUTING IN PORTO RICO Scouts are as eager to be helpful in Porto ‘Rico as their brothers in the States are. A scoutmaster of Aguar- .dillo reports that during a recent epi- demic of bubonic plague his scouts made a house-to-house canvass distrib- uting board of health instructions. On another oceaslon when a fire broke out in the center.of the town at two o’clock in the morning, the scoutmaster got in- to his uniform-ani-hurried along the street blowing his whistle. The signal was heard and obeyed. In a moment six proud scouts were by his side, ready to do whatever was required of them. The tywo who had charge of the first-aid pouch -had occasion to demon- strate their skill in-this line by render- ing assistance to a fireman who had ¢ut-his hand, and the others. stood on guard duty over property when it was ecarried to a‘place of safety.. lhowa three| {Cane Sugar, 10-1b bags. . 78¢ Sugar is advancing and we| adyise buying your needs| mow for canning. by the 100 lbs.

BROADWAY Fine Plot Flourishes Under, Thousands of Feet in the Metropolis of+the Nation. ¢ There might be some towns where It would be difficult, but. New Yorkers find it easy to hustle and yet let the grass grow under their feet. It is be- ing done at least in one place in New York, near Brondway and Leonard street, remarks the New York Sun. At this point is a small dralnage grating set into the sidewalk. Dust and dirt have settled in it almost to the level of the sidewalk, and in that little plot, less than two feet square, grass grows luxuriantly. This is not ordinary mongrel grass that, like Topsy, “just”growed.” A truck driver ‘working for a cotton goods house in the neighborhood, with a leaning toward -agriculture decided the soil under the grating would be tettlle, and hit upon, the’ (dea of a grass plot. He purchased the seed adapted to the soil. Next came the preparation of the ground. With g table knife borrowed from a restaurant the truck driver spaded the diminutive.plot and plant- ed his seeds. Soon the first green ap- peared. It has kept on growihg stead- fly. It-is true that the blades never get a chance to climb above the top of the. grating,” because they ‘atre kept worn down by hundreds of passing feet, but below there is a fine growth of rich, green grass. & SCPUTING THE BIGGEST YET Licut.

Memories of His Grandfather's Re- marks Concerning Time's Trend. “This bousted progress of ours is mere {llusion,” grimly said old Festus Pester. “Corruption permeates our en- tire social fabric. Selfishness has sup- planted generosity. The process of dis- integration is going on ‘at an alarming rate.. Our sole god has come to be mopey, Vice is tolerated, and we make obelsance by hypocrisy. Patriotism has disappeared. Waste and idleness abound.

Not all sharks are man-gatéis. Host persons, who have fallen victimi to sharks have been eaten merely be- cause they happened to be at hand. J. C. Bell of the American museum ex- amined the contents of the stomachs of more than thirty tiger sharks. Most of the sharks were from nine to twelve feet long, angh:76iper cent of them had been eating such crea- tures as sea turtles, other sharks and large rays and porpoiges.t Figfty-cleht per-cent had eaten & vnrlety of small- er creatures—crabs, horseshoe crals, mackerel, ‘shad’ and ‘oflief fish-~and one had eaten a water bird. “Six per cent, probably In their'role of seaven- gers, had swallowed the bones of de- mestic animals; one shatk’ containéd, among :other materlal, beef: bonés and hair, and a second; “wtlohtidh on small ‘mammal ‘bones, aniong wWhich were the leg hones of three slleEfil Ordinary sharks largest single item of ‘diet .for: fhe tiger sharks that Mr. Bell exnmln lt Odd Happening Racorded at chdlnn —Bridegroom Wiiling to Allow ~Bride Time to Consider, e Not so long ago a Strange error occurred at a church wedding. In some way. the bridal party became confused and at the close of thejeere- mony it was discovered that the bride had been married to the best miene: Further ‘complications arose from the fact that the best man was alrendy engaged to the bride’s. younger sls~ ter. .

At a wedding which took place in a country village a few years ago the bridegroom, on being asked the customary question, “WIilt thou take this woman to be thy wife?” scratched his head reflectively, and, turning to the bride, asked: *“Will ye clean my boots?* The query was met in the afirmative, and the ceremony pro- ceeded. A laughable incident once occurred at ayvillage wedding. When thie bride had reached the church she had forgotten her gloves, and flatly refused to be marrled without them, adding: “Be quick, lest T change my mind!” Two hours later the bride- groom was discovered seated in the local ‘inn, calmly pufling, away uat a cigar, waiting, as hé explained, to see if the bride really would change her mind. FIRST TO CROSS CONTINENT Sir Alexander Mackenzie Made Adven- turous Trip With a White Party In 1792-1793. The first white man to cross this | continent by a route north of Mexico was Sir Alexander Muckenzie, a Scotsman, who rose high in the serv- ice of the old North West company, which was amalgamated with the Hud- son's Bay company in 1821, Macken- zle was in the Far West when he planned his trip across country to the Pacific coast. Tw the autuin of 1792 he led his party far up the Peace river, where they built a post and wintered. On May 9, 1793, the party set out, pass- ing up the Peace river, through the Rocky mountains, across to the Fraser river, which was followed down stream for some distance, and then across country through an unexplored region, until the party came out on the I'n- cific coast. Mixing a quantity of ver- milion with melted grease, Mackenzie wrote on the inland side of a high rock rising from, the shore these Words to mark his visit: “Alexander Mucken- zie, just from Canada by land, the twenty-second of July, One thousand seven hundred and minety-three. Lat. 52 degrees, 20 minutes, 48 seconds north.” . Mackenzie then retrnced his course and ggturned to the Hast. Had Much Faith in Onion, Alexander found the onfon in Egypt, where the Hebrews had learned to lke it. He had it cultivated in Greece and gave it as food to his troops, In the bellef that it excited martin] ar- dor.
