Thus the city will get 670 feet of walk four feet wide that will be used bv hundreds of people each day. The city would normally pay about one dollar a leniel foot for this walk. So our proposition amounts to an offer to give the city the five street cross ings of concrete walks if the city will put in the 317 feet of its property walk so that our families can waiK to main street when it rains or when the park is irrigated. If our community refuses to lug their eroceries home through the mud and patronizes the peddlers, who will be to blame if the city has consciously re fused to so put in this link to our city walks ? While the old trees and orchard grass was undisturbed, through the park, we could usually get to the stores on the grass by jumping the mud ruts. But now we are in a sea of mud, whenever it rains or irriga tion is going on. If the plea is made that the city cannot spend three hundred dollars out of its $16,000 income for this year, to get this walk, I suggest that the city furnish the news papers with reliable lists of expenditures, with balance sheet of the city funds, each month. Then we people can judge for ourselves whether or not the mon ey is wisely spent. Yours respectfully, D. W. Jenkins.

Register 100 years ago. "But a few years have elapsed siuce the business of a newspaper editor was deemed that of a mere compiler, and he who was the most expert with scissors was deemed the most competent. Now the case is different, and the editorial chairs of some of our gazettes are filled by men of the first standing and ability, while the pens of jurists and statermen of high rank are not considered as disgraced by being occasionally employed in to their columns."

They put so much weight in matters of precedence and social position that they never quite care to be natural For example, some men of fairly high po sition will never go to the office or shop of another man who, they think, occupies a little lower position in the social or financial life of the community. "It is his business to come to my office," they think, even If they do not say it Poor fussers and poor worriers! The fact Is that a man who Is really big does not care whether a man comes to his office or whether he goes to the other man's office. The big man will always be at the head of the table no matter where he sits. If he has to have a stage setting he Is Just nn imitation and he is putting on a show. Toledo Blade. Tarantula Ancient Garden Because of the favorable character of the soil and climate the Nile valley In Egypt and the valleys of the Euphrates and Tigris rivers in Mesopotamia were the original sites of gardens. As early as 6000 B. C fruit trees and vegetables were grown in large quantities for the food they produced. Many trees were held sacred and were planted for religious purposes only, while many groves of fruit trees were planted near temples. Vineyards seemed to be valued next in importance to trees. Grape vines were supported on arbors and wine was made from the fruit Arbors at that time formed the chief ornament of the yard and they are still considered very important in landscape de sign. Large Land Holding There seems to be little doubt that the distinction of being the greatest private land owner in the history of the United States should go to Robert Morris, signer of the Declaration of Independence and later a senator tf, 5-- Going back Into history, it esting to note that the Druids of England apparently started the current Togue of using mistletoe, but their celebration was the arrival of the winter solstice. Moreover, only mistletoe that grew In oak trees received the homage of the Druids. This mystic parasite was consldored to have healing powers and tl.jis was given addi tional veneration by the Druids. In Scandinavian mythology It is noted that the mistletoe had nothing to do with the fair sex when nuns around a home. On the contrary, the plant was placed above the entrance to a dwelling place, as it was believed that such a procedure would keep out the evil spirits. Thus the mistletoe custom has had a great chanjre over a period of cen turies. Originally a plant taken from the outdoor world to ward off evil spirits and now a plant with an invitation attached to it. The tarantula is a large spider with a body about an inch in length; Its bite was formerly supposed to produce a kind of frenzy in human subjects called tarantism. The ner vous actions of those victims are supposed to be imitated in the wild musical dance known among the Italians as "tarantella." Doubtless in some cases Its bite produces dis agreeable symptoms.
