PASSING OF THE PRAIRIE HEN
viii Not Make Nest In Tame Grass
That ls to BE Moved

II jury of students of nature from
the Kansas prairies IL ever gathered
together and the question put to them:
What is causing the disappearance OF
the prairie chicken?" they would not
all answer Hunters"
A prairie chicken Is a pretty wise
bird. She will not lay eggs in tame
hay. Somehow she knows that a
mean looking machine with big cutting
blades will soon come along and sweep
the field of its mantle OF green glory
and expose her nest to the elements,
robbers and other devastators.
She shuns the tame grass, but seeks
the prairie hay. If prairie hen, say
men who claim to know, cannot find
wild hay fields in which to build her
nest, she will go dry"
But the pheasant is not so wise. This
bird is being planted in Kansas by
the state game warden. 1t is an i'm
ported bird and does not yet know the
kansas language"
Strange to say, it is alfalfa that
proves the pheasant's chief enemy. She
will build her nest in the alfalfa fields
and then later Shrek because the
mower has swept her nice shady home
away.
The frequent cutting of alfalfa does
not even give the pheasant mother q
chance to fix up one good setting and
get them good and warm.TKansas City

FAIRY TALES SHOWN
IN BEAUTIFUL PICTURES

IN HERE is a new way of presenting
old, old fairy tales to children
Il without translating them from
one language to another and publishing
them in story books. And this new
way has the advantage of being per-
fectly understood by a dozen different
children representing a dozen different
nations. 1t is the moving picture man
who has so delightfully."- solved the
problem and added to the gayety of ma
tions OF children.
Imagine, If you please, the drama of
1.-THE Sleeping Beauty acted out in
perfect detail, as real as real could be,
even to the old witch flying out OF the
window. And the scene is not shifty
affair with drop curtain representing
garden in the back and rickety
pasteboard shrubbery In the fore
ground, but a splendid old French
chateau with real towers and battle
ments and a drawbridge. Halberdiers
and soldiers march up and down the
turrets-that is until the spell Is cast
by the old witch, who sails away
with Photographic ease and suddenly
disappears into nothingness.
The king and queen and the royal
princess, lovelier even than childhood
dreams had painted her. and all the
royal suite gentlemen and ladies in
waiting are there true to life. The
young prince in a splendid costume
with a long feather in his cap rides
up to the castle gate on a prancing
streed. A thrill vibrates through the
audience when he breaks the spell with
his famous kiss that has come down
through ages OF romance and the great
household wakes at last from It's deep
slumber.
Children are not so easily amused as
they used to be, perhaps, because
amusement is so easily got now that
the old, simple things have lost their
SAVIOR, but l believe even million
aires son with everything In the way
of up-to-date toys that ingenuity can
produce, would have a special new
sensation when he saw this beautiful
old legend acted out true to life and
Imagination.

HOW MUCH CAN YOU COUNT

Some persons openly manifest a dis
like to mathematics. Can they be CEN
sured when such problems as these are
presented to view?
One little statement that set many
people to thinking about their limita-
tions first appeared in publication
some twenty-five years ago. 1t simply
stated, You cannot count trillion."
Many tried 1t, but all gave up before
counting very long. Suppose you
counted without stopping at the rate
of 200 every minute of the day and
night how long would it take? You
could count $1,000 an hour; 2SS,000 in
day: los, 1920 in a year of 1854 days.
Since a billion is a thousand million, it
is a simple matter to see that 1t would
take nearly ten years to reach that
sum; and since trillion is thousand
billion, ii does not require a great
stretch of the imagination to see that
we could never reach that amount un-
less we had in the neighborhood OF
10000 years to devote to the task.
