Old Water Main Lnborers unearthed part ot a wood· en water main, at least a century old, In Springfield, Mass. The conduit was fashioned from ho1lowed pine logs, nbout ten inches in diameter.

"Tot! \Vomen don't know how to keep secrets." "But this society Isn't to keep se-crets; it's to tell them."-Exehange. By Loui•e M. Comstock pOSING before the camera barefoot and with "turned-up pantaloons" just to make the matter conclusive. a retired Lutberan preacher of Nebraska, recently got his name and his picture in the papers as the original Barefoot Boy who inspired the Amerlean poet, John Greenleaf \Vhittier. to write his well known Pl'ilises of carefree boyhood ont tn the country. Ao exnmlnatlon of the details of his life. however, and of the clreumstances onder wblch Whittier wrote bis poem, lead to the conclusion that the Nebraskan a.nd the barefoot boy could not ba ve been one and the same person. Th!s preacher states that be came to America from the old country ln 1862. Whittier is known to have written .. The Barefoot Boy" white he was editing the Middlesex Standard at LoweiJ, Mass., and to ba ve taken his theme from seeing a boy there startIng out to bls day's work In the field, rake over shoulder. It is a matter ot record thnt Wblttler edited the Middlesa Standard for six montbs, starting In the fall of 1845, nearly twenty years before the pTeacher ever saw the shores ot this country. Is U not more logical, and more p1enslng, to suppose that Whittier's model ts the very spirit of boyhood Itself. viewing the world through unspoiled eyes.

Most ot the farmers and the animals heed the warning and hasten to the work of harvest, but there are some lazy humans and animals who always say, ''I shall do that tomorrow." So, to awake these lazy folks, Great Spirit calls on the North Wind to send down a real blast and this makes the lazy folks reallze that winter ls at hand and they have no barvested stores.
