likelihood of the Cherokee land Office

it is not likely that the land Office

they made any effort TO drive the
insects away. With rare presence
Of mind he seized the tails Of the
oxen to keep them from switching
and angering the bees and went
on his homeward way, literally
whistling for dear life" "
Fortunately for Henry his

some bee hives in the yard. One
Of the hives had been sweetened
with sugar for the reception Of q
swarm Of bees the day before, but
the bees had not swarmed. Stand

tune on her shining tin pan. Hen

at once deserted him and the oxen
hovered in the air for a moment,

Most Of us know, to our sorrow,
that the gift Of whistling is not
vouchsafed to everyone, and that
the attempts Of some people are
fraught with considerable discOm-
fort 10 their friends. That a
clever whistler may, however,
turn his gift to good account, is
illustrated in the following true
story:
The whistler is a West Virginia
farmer. and is an unusually good
performer. one of those cherry,
light-hearted young fellows who
whistle while they work.
One day recently Henry was
plowing with a yoke Of oxen.
When the noon hour came, he un-
hitched the animals from the
plow and started home to dinner,
whistling merrily as he drove
them before him. Suddenly he
heard a great buzzing overhead,
and. in another moment, a swarm
Of bees had settled on him and on
the oxen, covering them almost
completely.
He remembered Immediately
that bees are susceptible to mu-
sic and realized that his whistline
had attracted them. He also knew
