The Music Contest.
The contestants for the place as
representative in piano voluntarily
dropped out until finally only one
was left, and she would not accept
the appointment gratis. On Thurs
day morning the one remaining as
pirant played her selection, “Valse
Chromatique,” before a committee
consisting of Misses Argo and Phil
lips, and Mr. Miner. The commit
ee voted that the young performer
deserved almost a hundred per cent
on technique and interpretation, and
was therefore fully qualified to con
test with representatives of other
schools at the meet. On hearing this
announcement, Miss Ann Heys, the
young lady in Question, consented to
I accept thi appointment.

The next thing they knew the
twins felt themselves dumped out of
the bag, along with the lumpy things
and the Mushroom.
“That’s the very first time,” a sur
prised voice repeated, “I ever heard
truffles sneeze.” For Nick had
sneezed when the string tickled his
