boys worked in gangs, with regular

entirely. While one set was Turing me
or my men to the other end of the

little scamps would be gathering in the
plunder at the other. If we turned on

q ONE years ago George Bernard
Shaw observed, mo man is a
match for a woman, except with a
poker and a pair of hobnailed boots.
Not always even then" And recent
reports of sundry odd feminine activi-
ties might be considered to offer con-
firmation of that second clause.
For instance, over in Phoenixville
Pa, six fair maids have just been
formally elected municipal firemen. No
mere honorary membership, but a gen.
uine active participation in the duties
as we'll as the privileges of the Friend
ship Fire company, will be theirs
henceforth. For they've already made
good. One cold night last winter when
the gay half dozen were returning
from a surprise party about midnight
they heard the fire alarm. The one
lone fireman entered the station of the
Friendship company, near by, ano" be-
gan to try to get out the apparatus.
In the midst of his vain struggles to
move the heavy hose cart he was sud-
denly surrounded by the six martial
maids, who seized the long rope and
ran to. the scene of the conflagration.
They were the first company to ar
rive. They promptly put out the fire.
They won mighty commendation from
the chief of the local fire department.
Through his personal efforts they have
been enrolled as "firemen" for all time.
The names of these young patriots
are the Misses Marie and Anna Fisher,
Mary and Anna Burke, Katharine Tin
ney and Mary Mulhern.
The Bayonne policewomen are q
power we'll known. But in Seattle, Mrs.
Leila c. Baldwin is under full municipal
pay as police officer, and moreover
holds a record for arrests, having, with
her assistant, made 4SS arrests in nine
months against 375 arrests by 152 men
on the Portland force, covering period
of twelve months.
In Colorado they want a woman fish
and game warden. Women will make
as~conscientious and efficient wardens
as men," says Fish and Game Commits
sioner T. r. Holland. "In fact, women
game wardens around large cities like
Denver, who take an interest in birds,
would serve much more conscientiously
than a man and would prevent the
slaughter of many birds.
MANY of the women in the deer re-
gions know the movements and habits
or game as well as the men and are as
good marksmen, if that were necessary.
woman with influence, who would
take the proper interest in the preser-
vation of game and obedience to the
laws, would have much more power
than half dozen men wardens, as
men in this position are often hated by
the ranchers. l shall begin with one

When making cocoanut pies. buy a
cocoanut. saw it In two. remove the
shell and dark rind. then chop the
pieces in the food chopper. Add the
milk to the meat. AS this is richer
than dried cocoanut. do not use such a

The history of Yankee Doodle" is de-
scr!bed as a perfect maze OF conflicting

variations from the original. AS many
as fourteen variations OF "The Star

MED by q gradual process OF polishing
and modification. The year in which
