RAT IS FRIEND OF MINERS
Workers Warned Of Coming catas-
trophe When the Rodents Leave
Tunnel-Are Fed by Men.

Investigators Of mining conditions
and the peculiar dangers TO which
miners are subjected recently have
taken much interest In the practice
OF Western gold miners to make pets
OF the rats which commonly infest
mines. On the mother lode of Cali
fornia 1t has been found that the
miners invariably feed the rats and
take care Of them. believing that the
rodents are source Of protection
against accident, says Our Dumb Ami
mails. This is due, the men say, to the
instinct Of the rats. which warns them
when tunnel Is unsafe. And when
the rats leave tunnel 1t is almost i'm
possible to get the miners to work
there. This recalls the belief among
sailors that rats will leave a doomed
ship. The miners also have found that
rats are much more susceptible than
humans to the dangerous gases that
so often cause loss of life in the mines.
Long before the miners themselves are
affected by these gases the rats be-
come sick and show symptoms Of dis
tress. SO the men keep close watch
of the rats good health.

Clyde Swigart Writes from England.
The following interesting letter
has been received from Sergeant
Clyde S. Swigart, Minot young man,
who is now in the aviation service.
Mr.. Swigart wrote the letter from
England, enroute to the front in
France:
March 10, 1918.
Dear Mother and All:
Sure have seen some very pretty
country since last writing. The farms
here in England are all small and we'll
farmed. The houses are all brick
and built on the same lines very close
together. Look like sea of CHM
neys. Wasn't bothered bit by the
trip and sure enjoyed every minute.
We are in delightful place and the
grass is very green everywhere. Many
holly hedges with the berries, very
bright red. The people keep them
trimmed nice and square. The roads
here are mostly like the new paving
there, only more crushed rock in them.
Really, I'd like to spend quite lit
tie time motoring over them We are
sure welcome here. The folks got
out and cheered at all of the towns
we came thru and served us with
coffee at the stations where we were
at meal time. Our accommodations
are good altho nothing like we had
there. The farmers sure farm here
and the ground is worked up smooth
as a floor. Makes the country much
more beautiful Saw some very pref
ty old places altho the oldest of them
can only be told by the style of ar
chitecture as they are very scrupulous
in caring for them. The ones at
home could learn much from them.
1t is only in the faces of the people
that one realizes the debt they are
paying. Everyone works from the
children to their very brave, sweet
faced mothers and old men. The old
err men all took off their hats as we
passed, while the kids fairly hurt
their lungs. Have seen some famous
places but will have to wait until we
lick the Boches damn them) before
can tell you Of them. Everywhere
the Y. M. C. A. is open to welcome us.
Young Busby came over with us and
is sick with the grip. Nothing SER
ious tho. You ones at home haven't
evidence to know that war exists
These people tho have, and are being
welded closer to us than a 1000 years
of peace. You know now Pm all right
so don't worry if you don't hear so OF.
ten. I'll write as often as l can but
expect to be busy. Write me often
dear ones, and send the papers.
Word of home is the best thing pos
sible for us Love to all my dear
