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.’?

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.

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.
