HERMIT SCULPTOR is FOUND
Spends Time Modelling Little Master
pieces Which He Promptly De-
stroys Upon Completion.

There has been discovered at Cape
Scott, one of the most solitary points
in Vancouver island, by the chief en-
gineer of the public works department
Of British Columbia, q sculptor who
spends his time in modelling little mas
terpieces from humps of clay and then
destroying them, relates an exchange.
He is A. F. Whittier. and he calls
himself ''prospector.' Living entire
iy alone. he has for the past two years
been carrying out lonely investigations
of mineral claims in his neighbOrhoOd
His sculptor's tools are of the simplest
kind, and it is his habit to work with
rhe same piece of clay, which weighs
scarcely five pounds, but with that he
has modelled scores of objects.
The government engineer found him
Just as he had completed bust of the
martyred British nurse, Edith Cavell.
Mr.. Whittier was about to destroy the
work in order that he might use the
clay for a miniature statue of his son,
who was recently killed. He was, how
ever. persuaded to part with the bust,
which is to be auctioned in aid of the
Red Cross funds.

Suggestions for Camp.

One of the camp cOnveniences that
you fellows will find it well worth TAX
ing time to prepare is a dresser. When
you have unpacked your camp outfit,
you probably will have an empty box,
which can be used for the purpose.
Nail this to tree so that Its top win
be of a convenient height for the short
est lad in camp. Form towel rack
at each end with strips nailed to the
box. These strips should be long
enough to project inches or so. Nail
strips across the ends. Hang mir
ror upon the tree directly over the CEN
ter of the bOx.-The American Boy.

Father Of American ceooranhv

The phrase, Father Of American
Geography" refers to the Rev. Jede-

raphy published in the United States,
which for many years was the stand

There are many old persons still nv-
ing who studied their first geography
lessons in it. The author was gradu-

young ladies' school several years and
became widely known as a Presbyte-

ADAM SPRUNG FIRST JOKE
Asked Eve II She Expected an tch-
thyosaurus, When She Objected
to Spider on Rose.

We believe that in the Garden of
Eden, Adam gave Eve rose in ex-
change for a kiss. And she shuddered
and said, Ugh! There's spider on
the rose?" And he answered, We'll,
what do you expect for one stingy lit
tie Nissan ichthyosaurus?
We believe that to be the oldest joke
mother-in-law. or any that are sup
posed to be included in the Original
Seven. In varying forms one finds ii
in the Talmud, in Plautus. in Aesop,
in Rabelais, In Joe Miller, in all the
almanacs and comic papers.
When We were boy, it was told in
a minstrel show, thus: a man buys
suit of clothes at a secondhand store.
He comes back and complains that the
coat is inhabited by unpleasant insects.
And the dealer says, 'Well, what do
you expect for Swimming birds?"
Vaudeville knows it In this form:
Tenant--"Look here, you'll have to
make some repairs in this house. The
cellar is full of water! Landlord
well, what do you expect for S15 a
month-champagnei
And just last week We ran across
our old friend again in a weekly comic
paper. This time passenger on a
street car calls down the conductor for
not calling the names of the streets
distinctly. And the conductor replies,
well what do YOU eyDect for S14 a
week-a tenor sOlo?"
Lastly-a few days ago, we ran a
version of the old thing in this column.
We cut its hair, trimmed it's whiskers,
and fitted it with new suit, but we
could not disguise it completely. When
you run across it in any of its cos
tunes, send us a clipping, will you?
We are making collection of that
joke.

G. Bernard Shaw. the Irish play

nobody but an idiot could imagine
that the pacifists and socialists would

Germany the Bully.

(New York Commercially.
What a heritage of hate Germany IN
LAYING I'M for herself! She threatens
to invade Denmark and seize one or
more naval bases, If Norway declares
war after German submarines have
sunk more than four hundred or ner
ships and murdered a hundred or
more sailors, including several re-
Gently shot to death in lifeboats. Nor
way has even greater cause Tor war
than we had, but is asked to submit
to German tyranny to save Denmark
from the fate OF Belgium.
The three Scandinavian neutrals
could not help our allies much by
entering the war and no attempt is
being made to draw them into 1t.
Germany is losing her influence over
Sweden now that Russia has become
impotent, and the DOGGY Of Muscovite
aggression no longer keeps the Swedes
from sleeping. Germany therefore
DULLES defenceless Denmark in order
to keep her Scandinavian neighbors
quiet, now that Russia is no longer a
menace.
If there is such a thing as interna-
tional justice, one of the terms Of
peace will be the. restoration of her
lOSC provinces TO denmark along Win
Alsace-Lorraine to France. German
newspapers say the United States Is
fighting to win these provinces for
France so that Germany's potash
monopoly may be broken by the
operation of the rich potash mines
west of the Rhine once more in
French hands. So be it, if Germany
puts it that way. Germany would
not be able to trade on her monopoly
of cheap potash salts, if the world
could secure supplies from France
Germany deserves no consideration
when she tries to win the war by OPP
pressing neutral neighbors. She can
not prepare for another such war as
this. If she loses the coal and iron
of the French provinces, and her
power to exact trade concessions
through her potash monopoly will
also be broken when the eastern
frontier of France once more be-
comes the Rhine. This threat to In
wade Denmark without excuse Is an
other reason for the destruction of
Prussian autocracy. -

AFTER THE WAR,

Criticism Is levelled against the
Congressman who voted for the clause
in the War Revenue Bill which fore
stalls payment on their part of taxes
imposed on all salaries over and
above $1,000. At the special session
there was a supertax of eight per
cent. imposed on all salaries over and
above that amount. Just before adj
journing for the Christmas holidays
an attempt was made by some men,
bers to have this law overridden =:
but a joker has been found in the
new form which makes the old law
stand. Congressman do not want to
be inconvenienced,i it seems any more
than do other residents of the nation.
Yet they are not loath to vote away
the privileges Of their fellow men, as
evidenced In some of the laws per-
petrated on the poor defenseless Dis
trict of Columbia, and the latest at
tempt to override popular govern
ment, the amendment to the Constitu-
ton which would prohibit the manu-
facture and sale and distribution of
liquors throughout the United States.
Verify some members of Congress,
were it not for war time, would have
a lot to answer for; but the war will
not continue forever.
