In a Reminiscent Mood
Tho other night I joined a party
of young folks and went skating out
at Capital Beach. The ice was in
fine .shape, and I had a brand new
pair of skates. But somehow or
other those skates wouldn't work
like the old-fashioned "rockers" I
used to wear. The new fangled
skates fastened on with clamps
worked with a lever, while the skate
I knew most about fastened on with
straps JRem6mber how wo used to
bring the strap up over the Instep,
forward across the toe andnindor the
foot, .-then' back across the instep,
under the heel, then up and buckle?
Cinch the strap up until we almost
squeezed the blood out of the ends
of our toes! And do you remember
how that strap used to press the up
pers of the boot against that bone
that sticks out on the inside of our
ankle, until it wore tho skin off and
your sock stuck to it like glue when
you undressed for bed? I thought
of all those things as, I donned my
new fangled skates," and I soon
missed the support of the straps we
used to wear. Somehow or other
my ankles were not as responsive as
they were thirty years ago. - They
wouldn't stay put. And somehow or
other that thing called equilibrium
wouldn't work just right.
First I tried the "outside edge,"
and when a young friend picked me
up and bruBhed the snow off my
manly form I wondered how thick
fee had. to be before a fellow could
fall hard enough to break through.
The "grapevine" came next, and I
discovered that I needed skates else-,
where than on my feet. Time was
when I could "spread the eagle" with
the best of them, do the "Dutch roll"
forward and backwards, cut the
"feather edge" and do the "pivot,1'
but those new fangled skates per
sisted In getting tangled up, and the
bosom of the lake would fly up and
hit me in the most unexpected places.
It took a dozen hard falls abd a
sprained ankle to demonstrate that
within twenty-five or thirty years a
fellow can forget a lot, and also lose
a lot of ability to balance and prance
and swing. So I doffed the skates
and sat on a bench by the side of the
lake and watched the young folks.
They skated by electric light, and
that took away "half the fun. We
used to skirmish through the woods
for brush and dead limbs and old
stumps, and build a roaring fire by
the edga of the Ice, and then we'd
roast potatoes and maybe a chicken
tor two that was foolish enough to
come near and threaten to bite some
of us. Then we'd grab a blazing
stick and go skimming up the lake,
spreading a trail of sparks behind
us, or sit by the fire and tell stories
while resting up. Skating by electric
light Is all right, I guess, but if the
boys and girls of today could only
attend one of those old skating
parties that we old boys and girls
used to have twenty-five or thirty
years ago they would know what real
skating is. Now they ride a street
car to the banks of the lake, but we
used to trudge miles through the
snow and I'm right here to tell you
that it's a heap more fun walking
through the woods and along the
country roads, skates slung across
your shoulders and "her" hanging to
your arm, than it is to ride in a
Believe me! I'll leave it to any
of tho grayhaired fathers and moth
ers whose sons and daughters go
skating these winter nights.
Slowly Dawning
"I don't understand It," mused
Billington, gazing sadly at his tax
receipts.
"Don't understand what?" I asked.
"Well, you see; it's this way. I
paid 3750 for the lot on which I built
my little homo, and the owner of the
next lot adjoining said he'd take that
much for his if I wanted to buy it. I
didn't have tho money .then, so I had
to content myself with tho one lot.
The other day I made a deal iand
got hold of $800, and thought I'-d-buy
that lot, but the owner said ho
wanted $1,200 lor it, and of coarse
I couldn't buy it."
"Well, what about it?" I .queried.
"I don't see why that should puzzlo
you. When you built your houso'you
improved the adjoining property, .and
of course it is worth more now:"
"That isn't what puzzles mo," said
Billington. "I can't understand how
my building improved tho adjoining
property. The puzzle is this: I paid
$7 a year taxes on my vacant lot, but
as soon as I built my $3,000 cottage
my taxes went up to $28. I. am fined
$21 for improving my premises, and
although I added $500 to the value
of my neighbor's lot his tax on it
remains at $7. In other words I am
fined for building a home, and mado
to pay for being enterprising. My
neighbor gets a bonus of 70 per cent
on his property because he sits
around and does nothing. What's
tho answer?"
Of course I instantly realized thai
Billington was falling a victim to
that . socialistic, anarchistic, commu
nistic land value tax idea, and hav
ing no patience therewith J only
smiled pityingly at him and went on
about my business.

And his friends saw his brains
In a sea of white foam disappear.
There was a young fellow named

Who lived in the town of Wewan'ee,
He ate patent grub
And drank booze by the tub,
But he always was lean, lank and

There was a fine fellow named Toung
Whose tongue In the middle was

And he talked of "standpat"
Through the crown of his hat
Till he busted two lobes of his lung.

"What a misfortune for Judas,"
sighed the man who was always look
ing for something to worry about.
"What's the matter with Judas?"
I asked.
"Just .think now unlucky he was
to have lived' a couple of thousand
years ago when it was not possible
to be elected to a senatorial seat and
get a coat of whitewash."

"General," reported the spy who
had managed to penetrate into the

"Then Indeed Is everything lost,

sword and weeping great tears.
