Once you have started A well, it Is not hard to keep up your pace, but if you get off on the wrong foot and falter at the very beginning, you are likely to be beaten before the course is half completed. Of course, a person can make a poor start and make up for it by a whirlwind finish, but it's a lot harder. And that's something to think about just before school starts this year. If you dawdle and "take it easy" the first few weeks, it will be just that much harder to get your stride later on. But if you start with a rush, getting your first few days' lessons well, you will get the habit of running strongly and be able to keep it up all year. Let's get the best start we can as this school term opens. Let's "wait for the gun" with our toes on the mark, ready to be off like a flash when we hear it. And once startout his ed, let's keep up a strong, steady stride down to the very finish line. hand. said. "I've been rotten about this whole thing.

The various plants can be actually planted in the soil and it will of course be wise to add water at intervals. At the center of the pan you can make a depression which should be covered with a piece of glass. A stream leading to the lake can also be added by using a long narrow strip of glass which is covered save for an irregular thread line that is left exposed. Thus you will have a lake and A stream leading into it Bits of sponge, dyed green and mounted upon stiff wires or small sticks, will give you realistic pine trees. An old turkish towel, or a piece of one, when dyed will give the appearance of a solid mass of grass. If you have, the actual plants to work with by all means use them, but if you do not you can effect a good imitation in this way.

"Are you sure, Miss Walpole," one of the policemen, "that tid did not misplace this purse you yourself"" "I thought of that," replied the pirl, "but I feel positive that I left it there. You see. when I take it I always carry it in my beaded bag, but I didn't have it there when I returned to my room " "Could you have lost it out of the b g?" eked the officer.
