SOCIETY
THE KANGAROO LINE
TO TURPIN HILL
O, Jumping, Jerking Kangaroo
You really aren’t in it,
The care that Jump to Turpin Hill
Can beat you any minute!
Let's change the signs upon thoie cars,
It really would delight us
To have the signs read "Kangaroo,”
—Or better still, "St. Vitus.”
The dairymen from out-of-town
They say are fastly learning
To bring the milk in on the cars,
—lt saves the cost of churning.
And In the homes along that line
The mothers there abiding
Say to their children: "Hush, or we
Will take you trolley riding!”
For those who live on Turpin Hill
And work down in the city
The very fiends that dwell below
Shed bitter tears of pity.
O. must the cars to Turpin Hill
Bump on and on forever?
Will modern cars e’er use these tracks?
The car wheels mumble "Never!”

BERNHARDT’S VISIT
TO BATTLEFIELDS.
“It was the most thrilling event of my
career," said Mme. Sarah Bernhardt on
her return to Paris from the zattle front.
She went on:
“Never have I seen audiences so en
thusiastic.”
“On her theatrical tour to the army
Mme. Bernhardt was accompanied by
Luolenne Breval and Fursy, one of the
most noted of Paris revue singers. In
a three days' visit In the neighborhood
of Tone she gave six performances, in
which a selection of “Les Cathedrales"
was the most successful feature. One
of the performances was given near
Pont-a-Mousson, southeast of Verdun,
and barely a quarter of a mile from the
German trenches.
Commenting on her trip the actress
said:
"I have been among heroes whom
antiquity would have immortalized. Their
spirit was the gratest Inspiration I had
ever known. No one could feel afraid
In such surroundings."
