A Surprise Chick.

Iowa City, Ia, May 21.-Cheep!
Cheep! From the recesses in one of
the State university biology labora-
tories came the sound late one af-
ternoon recently. No, they are not
raising chickens there, but by acct
dent this one chick was Matched.
The freshman biology classes have
been studying the development OF
the embryo in the egg after about
three days incubation, and, during a
busy laboratory period, in the haste
to remove all the eggs from the in
cubator, one egg was left in the back
of the machine. No one had opened
the door to let in light or air, but the
egg Matched, and the girls of the
class had a wonderful time with the
downey yellow little chick the rest
of the laboratory period.

MoNROVIA NOT UGLY CITY
UnProsperous and "ShiftIess," but Still
in Many Ways Place Of Attrac-
ton for the Tourist.

The one word that describes Monro-
via is "shiftless." Here came the for
mer negro slave in the early eighties,
backed by philanthropists who wanted
10 see him given chance I'm his own
country. And here is the former ne
gro slave today, idling away his life
in the tropical luXuriance of the jun
gle, which feeds him without cultiva-
ton, and watching his one big chance
fall TO ruins
After all, the negro can hardly be
blamed If he fails in task that has
tried the nerve of white men. Coloniz-
ing Liberia has not been all delight
full experience. There are still many
lions, leopards and snakes in the
jungle, which make BODYBUILDING a
dangerous occupation. and occasionally
the interior tribes OF negroes get OBJ
streperous and eat couple of their
civilized brethren.
Monrovia is pitiful, but not ugly
Over all its shabblness and decay grow
the scarlet hibiscus, pink oleanders
and other tropical flowers, decorating
with their brilliant blossoms the corpse
of fine ideal.
