There win be one feature about Oppel's frog
ranch upon which much stress has been laid.
Large hibernating pits are to be dug where
the frogs can be artincially hibernated dur

frogs In layers Of moss or straw. IN holes
about four feet square and eight or ten feet
deep. When the prices become sufficiently

Case of Old DRY as Dust. :,

The boys in the office took a special de-
light In twitting Packard because he carried
Portuguese and Spanish grammars about
with him and was always deIving into them
at odd times instead Of entering into jest and
badinage. Old Dry as Dust" was their
favorite nickname for him, and they wanted
to know OF what earthly use those languages
would ever be to him. poor office clerk.
But Packard had an eye to business as
well as 3 natural liking for languages, and
he came to the notice of his superiors, not
through his fellows. but through outsiders,
men Of the business world whom he made il a
point to cultivate at every opportunity.
When the firm had to procure a likely
man to make a special business trip to Brazil
they chose Packard. to the astonishment and
disgust Of his fellow clerks, who at once
dubbed the man who had improved his
chances by acquiring side line sly

Zeppelin Airship Deyelopments.

Zeppelin Airship Developments.
In all the annals of invention and expert
msnt no invention has proceeded along line
more interesting and romantic than Count
Won Zeppelin's perfection OF the dirigible
balloon into the giant airship OF today
while the world sought to perfect the fly
ing machine or aeroplane. Count Won Zeppe-
lin. taking up. the dirigtble balloon where
Dumont left on. started on an entirely new
line OF experiment working on a new the
ory. One OF the first troubles with the aero
plane was its limit of size as pointed out
nrst BY Newcome. II an aeroplane is made
twice as big as a given model il will have
only four times the wing area or surface.

same relative strength. for areas increase in
two dimensions. and volumes of strength by
three-length breadth and thickness
zeppelin took this same idea and applied
IL TO the dirigfble balloon. for, said he, II I

tour times as much silk in the envelope but
IL VIII hold eight times the gas, that is, it
VIII LIT eight times as much. Thus he
started on the giant types Of balloon so sue
cessfuliy built by him since.
These are some 400 feet long and from
nfty to ninety feet in diameter. Being so
large they are stiffened with an aluminium
framework inside and made rigid through
out like ship sailing on the water. Indeed.
the whole theory Of the Zeppelin is that Of
an ocean going ship. but that this ship is
entirely submerged In its buoying element
and one OF much less SPECIFIC gravity. The
ship, or floating part, is in compartments.

New Methods Necessary.

Now that the frogs legs were being dressed
a new method Of shipping had to be made
Smaller boxes were secured The frogs legs
were placed in these boxes in alternate layers
of ice Several of these shipments were
spoiled because the product was not packed
in enough fee. This taught the young dealer
a lesson, and thereafter more ice was used.
Then the ice In the little Fillage gave out
and shipments had to be delayed for several
days. until arrangements were made to
get more. All this time the boys brought in
more frogs every day, and the shack became
so crowded with the animals that Opel had
to put extra boys to work at killing. dressing,
and packing them for shipment.
To catch the frogs the boys used the COM
mon dip net At first they worked only dur
ing the day. but they soon discovered that
frogs travel more at night than In the day
They took advantage Of this discovery, and
consequently brought in more frogs than
before. Some Of the Sought bulrs-eye Ian
terms for use at mig M When the light from
the lantern was ksown In the frogs eyes
he would sit bewiidered In the glare.
Then the dip net was thrown over him
and he was taken out and dropped into a
sack carried on the hunters back. There
were times that the boys caught as many as
100 dozen frogs In several hours When the
freezing season set in the frogs began to
hibernate in their haunts along the shores of
the lakes and the banks Of the streams. The
boys set to work digging them out Of their
hiding places whenever they could find

These ships have made trips of Loo miles

far has been controlling the landing in high

Facts About Mems Clothes.

for many years and about which few
questions have been asked as to their
origin
that are open st the top showing the linen
collar and shirt front In dress clothes these
openings are much larger and extend nearly
down to the waist This exposure Of the
shirt dates many years back, when linen was
dear and only the wealthy could AFFORD white
shirts. In those days men were only too glad
to have their shirts seen. hence the reason for
the opening at the neck in coats
The Washington herald., 1913-10-19

Modern mems coats are seldom made with
out having buttons on the sleeves. There
are also dummy button holes on the sleeves
These are relics Of the days when mems
coats were more elaborate than now. Then
the sleeves were richly embroidered with ex-
pensfve silks and laces
When eating men used to turn the cuffs Of
their coats back and button them some dis
tance up the arm to prevent them from get
ting soIled After 3 time the sleeves were
buttoned back permanently and the cuffs

the cuffs were dropped. but the buttons and

THE REBEKAH BALI.

Predictions that the success of the grand masquerade bah unylcr the auspices of the Bcbekahs of Tempe cn Thanksgiving eye would eclipse all previous records did not fail of undertakings by any means. Between two hundred and fifty and three hundred people were present pos sibly third Of that number as spec tators. Costumes of all natures and varieties and q large percentage Cf them far beyond decription were in evidence on the floor It was a con- glOmeratiOn of style from ages past to the present time adhered to by all classes of society. To the judges a most difficult task was presented when it came to picking out the prize winning costumes Their final choice lay with John Moeur in the costume of Little Boy Blue" for the first gentIeman's prize. and Miss Lois Cole in the costume of an Indian maiden for first ladies prize. The hooby premium fell to the lot of II. w. Miller in a garb of Uncle Josh Perkins. To those who found room to navigate on the floor the dance was just as much of success from a standpoint of enjoyment But for the pleasure of all the han was too crowded, a condition that will al- ways exist in Tempe until a new hall is built. The big success of the yening came from the financial end of the dance, close to $10O being re alized from the affair.
