LITTLE BENNY BY LEE PAPE. Ma and my sister Gladdis was tawk- ing about Gladdises clothes and weather she has enuff to start with after she gets married, and .me and pop and Mr. Parkins was lissening, ma saying, Well, yol have your new tweed traveling suit, thats one important item all set- tled, and youll have that blue street costume for a change. Yes, Im not worrying about street clothes, have I enuff evening dresses, thats the big question, Gladdis sed. And little morning and afternoon gowns, I practically just have my 2 printed dresses and the wite Jaleeml one, will they be enuff? she sed. 1 think so, and dont forget your hav- ing that little Frentch model made over, ma sed. So it seems your evanm% clothes are the ony problem, and shouldent be surprised if youd do very well with the crape de sheen your hav- ing made and your 4 practically new ones, my goodness that makes five, she sed, and Gladdis sed, Thats so, and if the spots come out of my green velvet thats another one, O I gess Ill struggle along all rite for a wile. How about you, Harvey? pop sed Have you sufficlent changes of clothes | to plunge imto the sea of matrimony with? he sed, and Mr, Parkins sed, Well Im afraid the most I can think of at the "present moment is 2 fairly good suits and an exter pair of shoes and I must say after lissening to the ladies the thawt makes me feel rather un- dressed. I should think so, poo sed. Come on around to the bowling alley and Il roll you for the cigars, it mite take your mind off your sartorial poverty, he sed. Gladly, Mr. Parkins sed. And him and pop went out and ma and Gladdis tawked about Gladdises | clothes all over agen. “CAP” STU GEE\ ‘T WUZN'T" MY FAULT TH' ' TRULK WU2 GOIN' S0 FAST WHEN WE COUL' \ OFE!\ T WOULDN ONLY TAXE HER TWO SE(ONDS TO WR\TE ME A EX(USE ~—~ IND!

In forestry as in the animal family, it has been found that like produces like, even to shapes and sizes. Rapid growing trees produce fast growers. Tall, straight, healthy mother trees will pro- duce similarly formed trees from their seed if started in congenial soil and climate. Short, shi trees will pro- duce the same type. The seeds of trees that have grown in warm climates will not do well when planted in cold climates. Seeds of trees that thrive in wet solls will not do well when planted in dry soils. Trees with crooked trunks will have a téndency to produce off- spring with crooked trunks. —By EDWI SWE WON'T EVEN | SPEND TWO SE(ONDS: |To MAKESHER LV GOY HAPPY ~— WHAT'S TH' 'RERSON You 2 N XCUSE! | Amey AVE (5 1 OMDER STAND wiLguR ELuted AADE A KILLING (MTIE MARIET, THUAT 507 WELL, AT WOR T Lo W o THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.
