July 18.—Lieut. | United States ma- rine corps, feared for a time that | the war would have to be called off on account of love, according to let- ters submitted in court by Margaret McCoy, who is suing him for divorce, One lette?, alleged to have been writ- ten to an unnamed “dear little girl’ | “It's a darn good thing every one on this ship hasn’t got it as bad as T have or they'd have to call off the KS TO BOYS BY BILL HART (Boys' movie hero.) Never take unfair advantage. This is the absolute rule of good sports- manship, The rules of hunting best apply to all other sports. If you take advan. tage of the animal you are hunting you are not a sportsman, I once saw a man creep thru the brush on a river bank and let go both barrels of a shotgun into a small flock of ducks while they were paddling around in the stream, That act was not sportsmanlike—it was despicable slaughter, Had that man been a true sportsman he would have allowed the ducks to rise and shot them while they were on the wing. , An athlete in a boxing contest can- not hit a man below the belt, nor when he is down. If he did he would be promptly disqualified by the referee. In a contest between a cowboy and e & bucking broncho the rider is not allowed to put a bit in the horse's mouth, he cannot hobble his stirrups and he is forbidden to “pull leather” —which is holding on to the saddle horn or touching any part of the sad- dle with his hands—because such acts would be taking unfair advan. tage of a game animal. In all sports among human beings there are judges, referees, and um- pires to see that the rules are not transgressed. You must grow up with the fdea constantly in mind that you will not take unfair of a wild animal simply ' is no referee present decision, I consider outdoor the strength of American ood. Whether it is baseball, boxing, swim- ming, horseback riding, foot-racing, hunting or any good, clean, whole some sport—play our games to win —but win fairly. (Signed) BILL HART. PE Wants a Farm, BY THE STORY LADY “Teo! Tee! Tee!" came from the kitchen, an Peter ran to see what was making the noise, Grandma had come from the poultry house with an orphan turkey, just hatched. “What shall we do with one tur- key?” asked grandma. Grandpa looked up from his read- ing. ‘ “Some folks could take that tur- key and raise it and have @ farm in ten years.” “Let me have it,” said Peter. “I want a farm,” so grandma gave it to him and for two whole days he id nothing but nurse the turkey. It worried him when it “hollered” and scared him when {t didn’t, for fear it was lost. He rescued it from Pat, the new puppy, and ran a moth- er hen off that was pecking it. A shower was coming and Peter jhunted hard and fast. “Tee! Tee!” came from the rosebush, then it sounded over by the gate. Peter finally caught it in the violet bed, justas the big drops hit. He raced into ‘the house. “Here's your turkey, grandma. I don’t want a farm, any way. ~-HELEN CARPENTER MOORE.

He looks a whole lot like the other two we've been talking about, but his mouth is even bigger. What's more, he has whiskers . with branches. In his habits he is like his two cousins—no nest and two eggs. I never have seen people so afraid to raise a real family.
