series of radio talks given by Prof.
John H. Casey of the School of Journalism at the University of Oklahoma, over WNAD, at Norman,Okla.
under the title of ‘“‘The Home Paper and Community Progress’’:
“Once up on a time there was a
woman from a large city who moved
to a small western town. A few
days after her arrival she was wat:
ching a typical small town baseball
game. A critical. moment had arriyed. As a slended youth took the bat
the newcomer remarked to _ her
neighbor:
“Look what is at the bat now,
How could they ever hope to win?”
“That,” remarked the neighbor:
a little drily, “is my nephew.”
The woman was a little abashed
but presently as the game — waxed
fiercer, she again burst forth:
“That man. on first base, hasn’t he
any sense at all?”
“That man on first base is my
cousin,’’ remarked the neighbor
The woman from the ding Dace
resolve which she did not break until the end of the game was in view
when the youngster on third base
fumbled the ball.
“Did you ever,’’ the woman from
the tity exclaimed in disgust. ‘But
what could you expect—a kid like
that.’?

The incident tells its own story,
a story of the ties of blood, the
kinship that has ,bound the little
villese into a related group. Even
where there is no kinship, there exist ties of friendship that have been
formed through many years, creating a spirit of helping hands, friendly hearts,. gossiping tongues and alint
and devotion.

STATE WATER COMISSION
VISITS FRENCH CORRAL
FRENCH CORRAL, Jan. 7, (ape
cial to the Nugget)— Well, our
glorious Christmas season-has passed
and many hearts, both old and yours
have’ been made glad. Why is
Christmas such a ‘happy time? Just
because we are all trying.to niake
someone else happy. Oh! that we
might tarry the Christmas with .us
4ll the year round! What a wonderful world this would be!— :
French Corral seemed somewhat
deserted this year with several of.
our neighbors gone to spend Christmas elsewhere, with friends or relatives.
Mr. and Mrs. W._E: Moulton and
daughters, Frances and Louise, spent
Christmas day in Marysville, the
guests of Mr. and Mrs. Thos. F.
Fogarty. Mrs. Fogarty is Mr. Moulton’s. sister.
Mr. and Mrs. A. Browning and
children spent Christmas in Nevada
City,-the guests of Mr. Browning’s
‘mother.
Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Culver are in
San Francisco spending the holidays
with their gon, Will, and daughter,
Mrs. Earl Chatty. G. L. Sweetland
and J. Swazey are in charge of their
place during their absence.
Miss Millie Clerkin spent Christmas
with friends in San Juan.
Mr. Burch, an agent of the State
Water Commission, in company with
W. C. Clerkin paid a visit to French
Gorral last week. Mr. Burch was
making a topographical surv of
our country. We hope he was (avorably impressed. Don’t see
could be otherwise if after vi
our beautiful hill slopes, he ob
the many trees with their
persimmons, ete., and
roses, blooming even in neglected
gardens that had suffered all summer with thirst. No water!
George Campbell of Pike City had
business here this week. _
We omitted to mention in our last
items that the French Corral school,
eldsed for the holidays, the 22rd. A:
short Christmas program was given
in the afternoon, after which Santa}
Glaus paid a_ visit, carrying a sack
full of gifts for each and every one. .

. Searlet Uniform Not
Conspicuous in Field
The writers of American school histories have frequently taken occasion
to remark scornfully upon the scarlet
uniform worn by the British regulars
in the campaigns against the Indians
during: Colonial days. but, as a matter
of fect, the. scarlet coat of the Briton
was a less conspicuous uniform than
the blue subsequently adopted for the
army of the United States.
Careful experiments have brought
; out> the fact. that, light gray, such as
thatworn by the West Point cadets.
is-the color first lost to sight in. the
field. Scarlet comes next, with dark
gray, blue and green in the order
named. In target practice it has been
found that of all colors scarlet is mort
difficult to hit,
invisible under the violet tinge of electrie lights, and would, therefore, be
an excellent color for the uniforms
of naval scouts who would be exposed
to the rays of an enemy’s searchlights.
