"I have seen you here 'different threes. Aro you well acquainted with the town?" ""Pretty well," said Dave, scenting that there might he a purperee in the que.s ' "Working now?" Dave told him where he was em- ployed. „ "I am the editor of The Call," said the elderly man. We need -another man on the street—a, reporeer, you ' know.

But 'the trein.ine , is worth -while, and it's the training you want. Take- it." •„ Dave explained his disadvantages to the editor of The ja1l. "I didn't want you to think," he said with great frankness, "that lithauee -I was read- ing Shakespeare I was -a inager. of English.' And I guess if I were to write. up stuff in Hamlet's language I'd .get canned foe it." . "We'd, ,ptiebehly have a. deputation from the Moral" Reform League," Said the editor, with a• dry smile.
