Since Uncle Sammy's larder was almost empty, he decided to serve the ban- queters only one dish—clams, When other food fafled, Uncle S8ammy could always turn to Black Creek, which flowed past his place, and hunt for fresh-water clams. “It won't make any difference what give 'em tonight, nor how much" Uncle Sammy thought. “They'll be having such a pleasant time that, if I bustle about and clatter the dishes, they'll think there's plenty to eat.” Other banquets had Been held in his eating house. And everybody had laughed o heartily that no one had seemed to notice the food. Indeed, Uncle Sammy had this very day gone to the trouble of hanging big signs upon his wall which bade his guests, “Laugh and Grow Fat:" ‘Check Your Appetites at the Desk;” “Try Our Creek Water! It's Very Filling." ‘Well, that night, with the guests all present, Uncle Sammy piled all his dishes upon the long table Everybody had his mouth all made But after making a terrible racket with the dishes Un- cle Sammy Coon set before each guest a soup plate half filled with a thin, | watery liquid, in which floated stray There was to ]\ | White Frocks | | White dresses are now the vogue In | Paris, in contrast to the black crepe garments which have so long bheen; | popular.

Was that unseeing young man, plunging recklessly across the stream of traffle, her husbznd? A gray shark of a ear almost devoured him. An- other lurched sidéways to avoid a sideswipe. Fred seemed oblivious. A surge of pedestrians blocked his path. He plunged through and disappeared. She felt a shuddering cold and closed the window. She sank upon the nearest chair. Her very mind and heart seemed frozen. This would not do. Fred was a high-strung boy and the fact that he usually held himself decently in check made his present mood more to be considered. It would be best to talk the thing over again—quietly. Even if the end of everything had come, they could at least arrange things thoughtfully, re- cover what they could from wreck, instead of plunging blindly into-—what?

Three o'clock in the afternoon is another high accident hour. These two peaks in the daily accident periods represent a very large majority of cases oc- curring among male workers in the telephone industry, throughout the country. This has been so for years. Why are 10 o'clock a. m. and 8 p. m. the peak hours for accidents? Psychologi may give this ques- tion considerable study, w profit to industry generally. Safety first campaigners are giving the matter thought and telephone engineers of the Southern New England and sociated telephone companies now are niaking an exhaustive study of this problem in their constant effort to ninimize accidents among work that intended for the wel- fare of employ as well as for the aconamic benefit to the company. The nu r of accidents, occurring during each hour of the day, has been charted by telephone engineers and the interesting and somewhat, puzzling fact is disclosed that the ac cident hours of each day are those stated !
