I'he Snap-up.
By E. D. ANGELL.
“When an ordinary person sitting
down wants to get up, he turns half
over and clambers to his feet. A
clown does a snap-up,” sald Beppo.
“This is the way to do it: 1 start
from a sitting position—l roll back
onto my neck, putting my hands on
the mat close to my head-—-my weight
is resting on my should.rs, neck and
hands—my legs are well over-——now-—
with a quick hard lift from my neck
and hands 1 lift my body off the mat
and at the same time throw my feet
forward and bend my knees. Now
watch—l roll back—l push hard from
k. % E |
‘:E %{ |
hands and shoulders and here I amt
on my feet.”
The boys tried the tricky Ralphl
did not tuck his feet far enough un- |
der and when he banged on the mat
he felt the jar from tip to toe. Al-i
len did not get far enough on his
neck and shoulders before giving thel
push that should land him on his,
feet, and Beppo urged him to throw
out his chest and put more power
in his push, !
After a bhalf hour of practice Beppo |
advised them never to practice tricks
when they were tired or never to
continue until they were "all in”
Even circus acrobats could not do
well when “pepless.” i
Before they started for home, he
showed tham some “combinations.”™
The first was a roll-over and fln'u;.i
up. He ran to the mat—did a pretty |
roll--then fell back to a sitting po- |
pition and without breaking the mo
tion rolled back on to his neck and
hands and from there did a snap
up, and as soon as he landed he did
another roll-over finishing with body |
perfectly erect. The second was a |
round-off followed immediately by a |
roll-over, |
“Remember,” said he, “the pretty
work in tumbling comes from the
combinations. Simple tricks com
bined are more interesting than a
gingle trick that is more dtfflvnll.i
But each combination must be smooth
and there must be no jerky breaks in
the series of tricks that you put to-‘
gether.”
(Did you ever wonder what run"
an elevator? Mr. Hyde tells you to
morrow.)

Who Said Leap Year.
By MOLLY PRICE COOK.
“Well, I'm glad I'm living in 1920
instead of 1288, sald Laura’s brother
Bob. “A poor guy back there didn't
have any kind of a chance.”
“What under the sun are you talk
,lng about, Bob?” said Laura.
“Leap year. Those piople in Scot
land passed a law in 1288 which al
‘luwml a gir] to ask a fellow to marry
i her, and if he refused he was fined
(one pound or less, according to his
| income. Later a similar law was
passed In France and in Genoa and
, Florence.”
“Well,” gald Laurp, “the poor wom
en ought to have a chance some
time or other, How did this custom
happen to fall on leap year?"”
“l guess they thought a funny
vear like leap year would be just the
time to pull off a queer stunt. Our
ancestors cortainly hard a hard time
getting the years to come out even.
Romulus, the first king of Rome, had
a vear of 304 days. The second Ro
man king added two mnnthn-dan-‘
uary and February., January was
named after the god Janus, who pre
sided over the beginnings of every
' thing. February was named after
the Latin verb ‘l'ebruare’ meaning to
| atone for your sins. February, there
fore was made the last month of the
iyear. By the ¢nd of 200 years the
‘mnnths were all balled up with ex
tra weeks and days and hours. So
Juliug Caesar got busy and began a
new kind of year in 46 B, C, a year
which was called the ‘Year of Con
‘ fusion.’
“Caesar made the months of his
lyvur 31 and 30 days long, alternately,

| This made a year 366-days long and
by 15682 there were many extra days;
80 the Pope corrected the errors. The
present year of 365 years is the re
f:iu%L Every fourth year a day is
| added to February.” ‘
[ “I'm glad 1 wasn't born on Feb
| ruary 28th” gaid Laura. *T'd miss
a lot of presents.”
i “If vou were living in 4000 A. D,
you would not have a birthday even
';nn the century mark Some cen
| tennial! years are not leap years.”
“Well, I'll no worry about 4000
‘A. D. I'll just have a good time in
1920 and make the best kind of a
!‘mm year."

Things.”)
