Wa$bin9tcn'$ Birthday.

The customary holiday privi-)
leges were extended to the inmates
on Washington's Birthday. In
the morning there was a vaude-
vile show in the chapel presented
by home talent. The show was
perhaps one of the best that the
boys have taken part in. The
singing was far above The aver
age, and the jokes, dancing and
acting were all that could be de-
sired under the circumstances.
Mr.. Gupine's singing is deserving
of special mention, as he possesses
an exceptional good voice Of rare
tone and sweetness that is very
pleasing.
Tie opening and closing pieces
of the performance consisted of
moving pictures by the Pink and
Grey Shows The pictures thrown
on the canvas were mostly of a
comical nature and all we're greatly
enjoyed by the inmates.
Warden Wolfer and a party Of
friends were present at the enter
tainment, and we believe the visit
ors were favorably impressed by
by the show given by the inmate'
of this institution.
| After the exercises in the chape
were over the prisoners were givel
the customary holiday in the cell
house corridors. In the afternoon
the men were locked in their cell
and each was permitted to write
: special letter.
Mondays show marks the clos
of this seasons entertainment b,
the local mummers. The boy
need not feel ashamed of thei
, work for we feel sure that thei
, efforts were appreciated by the in
+, mates.

Another pattern maker was add

During the past few weeks we
have printed several articles about
whales, and this week Sinbad te lis
what he knows about these fami-
liar pets. In the main all three
writer's appear to be we'll posted
on this subject, and they only diff
fer in regard to details. These
articles are very instructive as few
of us have had the good fortune to
see whales in their native element.

ened to the lower masthead about
thirty feet high. As soon as the
blubber is hooked the man sings
out to the men at the windlass to
heave away. Two men have long
handle spades and they cut thru
the skin and blubber about two
feet wide. As the men heave on
the tackle the whale revolves in |
the mooring chains and we cut off
the blubber and let it swing in on
deck. 1t is now cut and chopped
to pieces.
Whales do not blow water ex-
cept when they are eating. Then
they blow the water out TO allow
them to swallow their food. AT
all other times when they blow it
is nothing but hot air and vapor.
When one is hunting the sperm
whale in the torrid zone on Il calm
day when the air is hotter than the
whales breath. you can hear them
blow two or three miles away.
But you see no water or vapor.
The man ON the lookout has TO
locate the whale by the sound of
it's blow.
| When you are fast to a whale
with the harpoon and get him
played out so you can get close
enough to lance him and strike a
vital spot, he blows blood and a
heap of it-and it is hot. That is
all the blood you see about a
whale. Sometimes when the
whale is dead he sinks and is lost
They put buoy over him and in
twelve or fifteen days they get him
but generally the whale is lost
