Millicent asked 3 "Some kittens," he said, 'op was Just thinking of an experience I had one time when I was a boy. It was the first time I had ever been out camping in the west. Father, my cousin, Roger, and I had a little cabin in the mountains and were roughing ft for the summer. "One late afternoon 1 was coming into camp when I met Roger. 'Look what I 2 I" he cried, and held out & basket In which was a squirming MNttle kitten. He had been out hunting rocks or something and had found the little animal wandering by itself. "Tm afraid father won't let us keep it,' 1 said doubtfully. 'He doesn't like cats.' "TI don't see what difference it makes," said Roger. 'He's gone all » We'll just put the basket under and then we can play with ten while he's gone. I like oats.

'Let's put in the shed, I suggested. 'He mew and give himself away.' the kitten was carried out and put the old shed not far from the house. "We had just gone to bed that night hen we heard a weird noise, like the Ty of a child. We sat up and lis- tened. The cry came again, this time earer.

How will I occupy my time indoors?" Still another question that she must solve is that of Christmas gifts. What is a suitable gift for Ann? For Alma? How about a paper-rope sewing basket, or dresser set consisting of a neat handkerchief and glove box? Not only will they be appreciated, but think of the fun you will have making them. Few Materials The materials are easy to get; they are a roll of crepe paper, glue, and several cardboard boxes for founda- tions. You can purchase the roll of crepe paper for a small sum. The coldF de- pends upon the object to 'be made and your taste. For the sewing bas- ket a dark brown paper is good. For the dresser set a color that matches used, is suitable.

With your Scissors cut it lengthwise, across grain, into long strips about two and a half inches wide, Fasten one end of a strip in the door jamb, as the girl in the illustra- tion has done. In the other end of the strip make a small loop and run your pencil through. Stretch the strip out. Turn the pencil from right to left till the strip is well twisted. Twist Another Strip Twist another Strip in the same manner. Then place both strips in the door jamb, run your pencil through the loops, and twist the strips together, making the paper rope. Instead of turning the pencil from right to left, however, turn It from left to right. For the foundation of the "sewing basket use a large shoe box Glue stripg of crepe paper over the edges of the box and lid. Coat the outside of the box with glue. rap the paper-rope evenly aroynd the sides, beginning at the botfom and pushing each row tightly against the one below (see our illustration). r inside When the outside of the sides has been covered, begin on the inside of the box. But first, if you do not wish to cover the bottom of the inside 'with papersrope, glue a plece of cretonne matching the color of the box, neatly into the bottom, allowing it to extend an inch 80 up the sides. Then glue n the er-rope, Cover the lid with rope. The illus- tration shows how this is done.

Very slow acceleration and low maximum power always characterize an engine which is run ning on a decidedly lean mixture and to an even greater degree one which is receiving an excessively rich mixture, which burns in complete ly, loads the intake passages and interferes with ignition.

It is widely believed that a very hot, energetic spark makes for snappy operation and where a lean mixture is employed, at least, this view is undoubtedly credible.
