I would have iguored his pretty speech absolutely as I had others in the past, but the remembrance of Lillian's admoni- tion made me laugh lightly and par- ry the words as best 1 could. “Ah! but no one is like Noel,” Y told him. “And T do hope you will not take him away from us.

Equally un- fortunate is the child who grows up in & suburb which is so filled with pride in its front lawns and back vards and hedges that it will tolerate no blemish. in its well-groomed midst, I remember last year seeing one poor little fellow repeatedly switch. ed across the legs for sinfully em- ploying his shével in the vicinity of the young privet hedge, for trailing his express wagon over the newly ceded lawn, and for running his tricycle over the edge of the pansy bed His front yard was for looks and his back yard had been paved with cement, It was no good ever for Cy riding because it generally was monopolized by his baby sister's laundry, The: literally was no place in which the child could play except the public street, where he was for- bidden to go, and the single narrow walk that led up to the front porch. Fine hedges, smooth lawns, bloom - ing gardens are a part of every home ocutside the city, but they have 10 right (o exist until the littie chila has been provided ample space in which te run and play and dig.
