J - a. to you. ' . ' Farnsworths Study Science And Arts At Highlands (Continued from page one) Mrs. Farnsworth uses no less than twenty-one pen' names! She has aL different reason tor each one, sne says. Her best known pen name, 1 - T nKort Ptnmpt Ward under which name her verses are published. Her songs to music are published under .the name of Ann F. Barr, here and in England. In the current issue of St. Nicholas is a poem by Robert E. Ward called "Consider the Llama," with a most expressive decoration by Reginald Birch, the artist for -"Little Lord Fauntleroy," "Sara Crewe," and o'tb er stories by Frances Hodgson Bur nett. Mrs. Farnsworth liked the drawine so much she commented to Mr. Albert G. Lanier, the editor of St. Nicholas, on the way the artist entered into the spirit of her poem, and referring to the absent minded appearing professor at the head of the page, wrote, "How ' did h el achieve so speaking a likeness of the Juthor !" This amused Reginald Birch' so that in reply she was sent the original of the . drawing, ' in one corner of which he had drawn an angel and written by it, "Robert E. Ward, as I picture her." Below is a poem which was pub lished in Scribner's at the time of the death of James Whitcomb Riley in memory of that poet. . The Last Journey When he went xbome, who went the other day, There was an eager scamper of wee feet To welcome him and faces small and sweet Uplifted and bright eyes, ' blue, brown and gray Danced . with delight as only child eyes may -When joy is . overflowing and complete ; """"""" '" - And he was crowded on some shady . seat . - v Both knees, both arms filled in the old time way. Tell us a 'tory!" 'Say a rhyme again 'Oh, Little Orphant Annie, please once morel' 'No, old John , Hertry!' 'No, the Raggedy Man.' Was it not so, O best-beloved of men? , You cannot answer from the farther shore, But so, I know, your first day home began. Mrs. Farnsworth likes to write humorous verse best, she , says, as she would rather see laughter than tears. "The Case, of the Curculio," which was published in the Country Gentleman for last month is an ex cellent example of her humorous verse. The Cace of the Curculio I captured a curculio And severed him in twolio Because too well . I knewlio The nature of the brute The aim he had in viewlio: To go my orchards throufthlio, And all that he would dolio To all my precious fruit! Hereby I counsel youlio, If ever fruit you grewlio On seeing a curculio, You do as I have done: For should you smile, 'Pooh-poolio!' Your carelessness you'll ruelio Your apples will be fewlio, Next to, and worse than, none ! . Insects that suck or chewlio Worm, aphis or curculio With soot, soap, vitriol-bluelio, We sternly must combat. , i .

Research Mr. Farnsworth for many years did newspaper work, at one time owning his own paper but for the past twelve or fifteen years has. been devoting his time to research work He has been working on physiologic alkaline balance and how to restore the alkaline balance to the human body. . Althouggh Mr. Farnsworth is not a doctor he is very much interested in medical work and corresponds with leading physicians at Johns Hopkins, the Rockefeller Laboratories in New JEWELER .

Mr. Farns worth says. 'I do not work for mon ey or reputation, but for the love of it-" Mr. and Mrs. Farnsworth have en dowed everything about their place with a distinct personality. Their roadster is called Mow'gli, Kipling's name for little frog. The kitchen of Corrymeela is known as the "Charming Sally," due to its shape f I It ! Ml I r IIT- 111 I .

The keen, sweet zest and sparkle of pure sunshine is stored for you in Camel Cigarettes irradiated by the sun itself. And up-to-date, scientific methods of manufacture preserve this flavor and bring it to you, mild and fresh, with none of its goodness lost. which . is somewhat similar to the galley of a ship. Their bob-tail cat they call Niinrod because he is a "mighty' hunter." Although there is a great deal of difference between the types of work Mr. and Mrs. Farnswotth occupy themselves with, both seem to be as interested in the other's activities as in their own, and prouder of the other's accomplishments. :., . - v 1 fct ruin vwa, W-JhJii K i ...
