This is your local staton, 213 Ocean No K.
I am not sure how it works out with 'other people hit
Within tny experience the work that never gets done on'tim
is the kind 1 plan out over night. Oh, yes, I can accomplish. J^i
n lot of work—over night, Somehow on those particular morn
rungs. 1 seem to get out on the wrong foot.
Things began to go wrong, that
Is, not according to schedule. When
you start to do many things with-
j ut thinking or maybe for the first
lime , how often you start the wrong
way first. Take a little job like put-
ting on your stockings. If you just
put your foot in any old way you
will always be surprised to And
your toe in the heel at the first try,
and the Beam has ambitions to look
around In front so that has to be
twisted and turned and 'made to
behave like some contrary people.
Then if you get up late you always
think of hurrying . .. you can make
up for lost time, Not so, that's
gone. In your haste you may upset
something or bark your shins on
some obstacle that has been in the
same place for years and never hit
you before—for of course it wasn't '
your fault. The shin is a tender
place and needs protection ; unfor-
tunately you have one too many
when you hit it a good whack. I
have always thought and often said
that the calf ot your leg should be
on in front—to protect it.
' Nature is wonderful but sbe might
be a little easier on a fellow once
In a while. It's lightning that does
the damage. Why does she have
to be so brazen with her thunder?
As ir she was staging a war in
heaven . We are sick and tired of
wars on earth and look forward to
that "Sweet Rest in Heaven" that
poets sing about . . . or will we
continue to keep on working out
our salvation forever and ever.
But to come down to earth—and
the battle of the wood ticks. Spray
or no Bpray I never had such a
siege with wood ticks as I have
had this year. Travelling about the
shore and the woods especially with
a dog you might collect a few but
not in yovir own yaTd. Having found
and killed 21 of the varmints gnaw-
ing at my vitals I thought—"Now
that's the last," for I had a period
of rest, Then number 22 appeared.
Before I could arrange for her
death she escaped. "It the female
of the species is more deadly than
th male," then all of my collection
has been the deadly kind. Public
enemy number 22 is still at large.
\She is in good condition to work at
her trade and needs no back pay
or unemployment compensation.
After they once choose a spot on
your body they stay there. It's not
like ivy poison that spreads and
spreads, but it has an itch of its
own that is not liable to make you
feel very kindly toward the pests.
Ticks are easier to find, the great
clumsy things, than some other in-
sects—insects so small and almost
transparent; but they are smarter
in their way than proud man who
thinks so much ot himself and his
talents. These little pests can get
their own living at no expense to
themselves while we have to eat
all kinds of things to keep going
and pay all kinds of bills to keep
ourselves and other people going.
They only thrive in warm weath-
er so their time is growing less and
less each day. So we will end the
Btory here.
Someone is singing "Let's Take
An Old Fashioned Walk." Sounds
refreshing but it's no longer pos-
sible. There are no old fashioned
, walks any more and there never
will be again, so try another station.
It was right in the middle of a dis-
course. If it was the day of shout-
ing ministers talking of lire and
brimstone, I would say this min-
ister was a hat one—but now I will
just call him an Exhorter—a n Ex-
horter of the fiery kind. He kept
shouting, "Blow the Whistle of

Fruition-Crowned Effort
For a long time the people of Cape Cod have been working
to accumulate funds for the new building addition to their Hospi-
tal. Although the financial total planned has not been quite
reached, the good Cape Codders are scurrying about, during
Cape Cod Hospital Week. July 30 to August 6. with tag days
and benefit events with the hope of having enough for the com-
pletion and full equipment of the new building.
In the meantime, plans for some time had been afoot to start
construction , the contract was let, excavation of the site made,
and now the cornerstone is to be set in place.
The Hospital project has united all the Cape, for it belongs
to us all from one end of the Cape to the other. It is the only
general hospital on Cape Cod, and should receive the support
and loyal interest of each one of us, for who knows when it may
become his turn to be a direct recipient of its benefits?
Lastly, we should be proud of our Hospital and of the
sturdy, hard-working Cape Codders, who, in a fine spirit of devo-
tion, have labored hard for this cause.
The ceremony surrounding the cornerstone laying at 2
o'clock next Monday, August first , will mark their fruition-
crowned effort.
E D I T O R I A L S —
This week at the Monomoy i ue-
atre, the exhibition of art In the '•
Green Room is a series of paintings (
by C. E. B. Bernard . Mr. Bernard
received his art training at the '
University of London , where be
won a national traveling scholar-
ship in decorative architecture, and
studied in Italy. On his return to
London , he became a designer of
the interiors ot public buildings.
During the two years spent in va-
rious prison camps of the Germans
during World War I, Mr. Bernard
had ample leisure to carry on with
his art work, and it was mainly
because of this experience that he
adopted the profession of artist on
his return to England after the war.
Working as a free lance artist in
London , he did mainly political car-
toons and humorous drawings for
such famous periodicals as Punch ,
and the Sketch. Upon arriving in
the United States in 1927, he con-
tinued his free-lancing in Boston,
until the outbreak of the Second
World War.
Mr. Bernard then became active
once again , this time as a staff
member of Radiation Laboratory
at M.I.T. He did scientific and me-
chanical perspective drawings of
highly complex mechanism from
blue prints , thus aiding the devel-
opment of Radar.
Last year, Mr. Bernard and his
wife satisfied a long-standing ambi-
tion to live on the Cape by moving
to Chatham , where they have
opened a gift shop—The Merry
Thought (which Incidentally is an-
other name for a wish bonej.

A sprigntly mociern comeuy
"Ring Around Elizabeth ," by Charl
Armstrong, will be presented by
the Brewster Town Hall Summer
Theatre next week as the fifth pro-
duction of the current season.
Louise Wallis, who is the associate
director of the theatre this sum-
mer, is starred in tbe role of Eliza-
beth. Performances will be given
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and
Saturday evenings at 8:30.
The comedy concerns the domes-
tic tangle of a large modern-day
family-which looks to one member,
Elizabeth , to keep everybody else
happy. The constant strain of lier
responsibility causes Elizabeth to
develop a sudden case of amnesia,
and the household becomes a mad
house without her guidance. The
amnesia is short-lived but works a
miracle on everybody, including the
victim.
Mrs. Wallis, who directed the
Brewster Theatre 's production of
"The Women Have Their Way,"
while starring In the one;aet com-
edy, "A Sunny Morning," presented
on the same bill , was, in the early
days of her career, a leading lady
in professional theatre circles, both
In summer stock and on Broadway.
Before that she studied at the
Theodora Irvine Studio for the
Theatre in New York and with Ja-
cob Ben Ami at the New York
L Civic Repertory Theatre. At pres
l ent Mrs. Wallis is director of tht
i Laboratory Theatre at Mount Ho)
I yoke College, where her husbanc
is a professor in the English de
purlment.
The supporting cast for "Ring
Around Elizabeth" includes Bar-
bara Lister (Laurette) of Beverly
Farms , Mass.; Ann Mack (Irene)
of Hamilton, Bermuda ; Nancy Mil-
lar (Marcy) of Larchmont , N. Y.;
Natalie Morrow (Jennifer) ot New
Britain , Conn.; Nancy Park (Vld'a)
of Falls Church , Va.; Pamela
Pershing (Harriet) of Scaradale ,
N. Y.; Warren Frost (Hubert) of
Essex Junction , Vt.; John Lasell
(Ralph ) of Whitinsville, Mass., and

braham, Mass.

Dear Theodosia :
I have a friend who is greatly
interested in forest lor e anil very
observant, finding rarities and
choice growths near where she is
living, even though she does not
wander far from home.
She is making her home now
near a lake at the end of a country
lane in one of our villages , and I
am going to quote for you here
some of her observations:
"I am Introducing Dr . to
these handsome pitch pines and
oaks about here. White and black
oaks and their varieties have been '
very interesting to me since com-
ing to Lane and its bit of
forest along the roadway.
"The leaves are of many different
designs, and very ' attractive. I've
seen them often in rugs and drap-
eries, but never fully sensed they
were from our trees 'til I came to
. Lane.
"I have a small Scotch nine in a
tiny flower pot Mrs. gave me.
The tiny tree is two inches tall.
1 would like to know how long it
took to grow the handsome pitch
pines around this lane.
"There is an old , oh! apple tree,
twisted and re-twisted , just oppo-
site the driveway, and close to the
fence as one drives through the
lane. Some of Its branches have
been cut, as they intruded into the
roadway.
"Perhaps you know the two won-
derful dogwood trees on the
estate, I am told they are In their
natural habitat. I saw and watched
them In all their glory of bloom. I
hope you have seen them and all
the other trees there ,—pitch pines
and maples."
In the hurry and scurry of our
lives, I am sure we miss many of
the wonderful shows Nature herself
puts on for our enjoyment. If we
would only take the time and trou-
ble to look at her beauties, we
should learn a great deal. What a
pity to miss all this.
Your loving
Aunt Jane.

REGISTRAR KING SAYS:
Children can learn safety rules
for proper pedestrian habits with
II llttlo effort. Some or the simple
rules lo observe are these:
1—Cross streets at crosswalks,
look every direction , then walk—
don 't run
2—Obey signals of police officers,
traffic lights , or signs,
.
'I—Don 't use the streets for play-
grounds—use supervised areas,
¦1—Keep away from parked cars.
Never play near them or run be-
: tween tbem.
o—if walking must he done where
there are no sidewalks , walk on the
left sido of the road facing oncom-
ing traffic. If at night , be sure to
wear something which will reflect
light. Let tbe car driver see you!
fi—Never hitch rides on vehicles
and never ride "double" on a bike.
There are many other rules for
safety of children but keeping
these in mind will do much to pre-
vent needless and painful acci-
dents.

UB two metal pieces, for he swap-

A lost purse bothered another
child , and still another dropped his
money all down back of the seat
behind the radiator, where it was
irretrievable.
It was as nice a lot of children
as could be found anywhere, full
of animal spirits, in fact , just bub-
bling over with them, but obedient
and well-mannered. A vocal mara-
thon was staged as the train ran
through a few tunnels. It was an
ear-splitting noise, with each child
trying to out-yell the others. How-
ever, the demonstration was for
very temporary periods. Cap guns
were discharged, making the ail
heavy with the scent ot gun powder,
One boy was carrying a sardlns
can with water in it and a turtle.
Before the journey was over, he
Bold the turtle for a dollar. Many
vacation trophies were carried
home. Two girls had shells on
which their hostess had drawn pen
and ink sketches.
Most of the excitement was fur-
nished by food and constant trips
to the drinking water tank. Sand-
wiches were produced from boxes
and paper bags, and the eating
continued during the entire journey
and the drinking until the supply
of paper cups was exhausted. Onp
thoughtful chairman had brought
several bags of sandwiches and a
box of doughnuts , in case of a
shortage.
After the baggage wns painstak-
ingly stowed away on the racks, the
children began getting it down after
the train left Providence , so as to
be ull ready to leave the train
when it reached the terminal. In
vain , the escorts assured them
there was plenty of time before
arrival .
When a new engine was attached
at New Ha^en, the children clus-
tered around the front door of the
car to watch the process. The very
front cur was the children 's special.
One of the hoys on board had a
Frankenstein mask, which he
lii'ouglu out, Sight ot It sent another
hoy In double-quick time to the
escorts with a report of it.
One boy wns told to wash Ills
hands and face. Upon questioning
the necessity of u face-washing, lie
was led to the mirror and shown.
The children were appreciative,
top, of the vacations that had been
given them, A line, upstanding cbt-
neso boy asked what it would cost

Decision to conduct a fund-rais-
ing campaign in September rather
than in February, as in former
years, was taken by Scout officials
in order better to anticipate the
requirements for the fiscal year, to
help spread the period of annual
drives usually associated with the
winter months, and to anticipate
the Influx ot several hundred more

the dropping in September of age
