MISS RHlNocERoS.
s. NAQN 0AHA1pQyVtR

II don't believe that any Of you,"
said Miss Rhinoceros, looking about
her, "have had the many and interest
Ing experiences have had"
Now none OF the other animals in
the different houses OF the ZOO knew
all Of Miss Rhinoceros' experiences, so
they really could not answer her when
she said she had had more interesting
experiences than they had had.
They oil looked at her, open-mouth-
ed. but did not say word.
Finally Mrs. RhinOceros, who lived
next door in the zoo, spoke up and
this Is what she said:
II don't see why you can brag any
more than can. We are both Of
the same family, we both have the
same habits and ways"
T came from Africa" said Miss
RhInoceros.
That's nothing" replied Mrs. Rhi-
noceros, $50 did l."
Now all the animals listened atteR-
lively to this argument. They felt
sure It would be very interesting.
Crittenden record-press., 1918-04-04

Then. too, they were anxious to see
how II would turn out and whether
Miss Ehlnoceros or Mrs. Rhinoceros
would win.
They didn't see how either one
could-for they were both indeed Of
the same family, they had come from
the same country, and now they were
both In the zoo.
'T'm very well-behaved and gentle"
said Miss Rhinoceros.
"The same is equally true Of me-"
answered Mrs. Rhlnoceros.
81 was carried on poles from my
home near the lake In Africa to a big
steamer, and ! Travelled by the sea to
come to this country"
''The same as l did" said Mrs.
Rhinoceros.
Now both Of them were pleasant,
but the other animals feared there
would be great fight following this,
and yet they both kept on talking.
Each boasted Of what experiences
each had had, and neither Miss Rhi-
noccros nor Mrs. Rhinoceros seemed
10 have had one the other hadn't had.
The animals thought the CONVERSE
ton would end nowhere at all, and
were about TO turn away 10 pay atten-
ton TO other matters, food and such
things, when suddenly Miss Rhonoce-
ros screamed out: IL have had one
more experience than you have had.
Yes, ! have. I'm sure of 1t. Quite
quite, quite sure"
"Tell me of IT," said Mrs. Rhinoce-
ros. She seemed TO doubt very much
that Miss Rhinoceros could tell her
Of any experience she hadn't had. And
no wonder she was still more firmly
convinced Of this idea. because in all
their talk, no matter what Miss Rhl.
noceros had said, Mrs. Rhnoceros had
been able to say the same.
81 will tell you Of II, and that most
quickly" said Miss Rhinoceros.
All the animals listened once more.
They felt from the way Miss Rhinoce-
ros had spoken that surely this time
something interesting was Forthcoming.
And they didn't want TO miss anything
worth while. They had been listen.
Ing to too much that hadn't amounted
10 anything, though they had learned
lot about the lives of the Rhlnoceros
family In Africa and how they were
captured for this land. carried between
poles us Miss Rhinoceros had said.
~ had sore Jaw once" Said Miss
Rhlnoceros.

The animals all looked very sad,
There was nothing to this after all.
"And had many dressings" said
Miss Rhlnoceros.

ros.

rejoiced In the fact that she had had

Secretary Baker, After a Cabinet Meet
ing Yesterday, Said He Would Be
Ready to Submit Estimates Within
Day or Two.
WASHINGTON, May l-Plans for
increasing the war army to keep pace
with the accelerated movement or sol
dicrs to the battle front in France will
be laid before the house military com
mittee by Secretary Baker within a
day or two. Mr.. Baker said yesser
day after a long session of the cabinet
that he would be ready to submit his
estimates in that time
What increase is to be asked has not
been disclosed, but the report most
widely circulated is that an additional
.000,0 men will be provided for in
the appropriation bills submitted,
bringing the army up to more than
100000 men.
1t is known that very careful sur
vey of the equipment and transporta-
tion situations was completed bv the
war department recently as a basis
for formulating army increase plans.
The provost marshal generals office
has taken steps to ascertain in definite
figures the exact number of fighting
men still available in class / of the
selective service forces, and recon-
mendations for authority to organize
additional divisions and estimates for
appropriations have been held up pend
talp Of CT,
Previous plans contemplated the
mobilization Of an additional 5000
men during the present year This
project represented the filling up to full
strength Of all existing divisions and
the placing i'll France before the end
of the year of a full field army under
Cen. Pershing with an ample reserve to
keep the fighting ranks full at all
times.
Plans for the equipment of troops
were based on this project it is under
stood, and in considering proposals to
enlarge the program extensively the
prospect of shortage of uniforms and
other equipment as we'll as of trans
portatlon must be considered There Is

The accelerated movement of troops
TO Europe is proceeding smoothly and
officials are much encouraged by the
showing of the transportation service.
Secretary Baker has been in frequent
conference lately with Lord Reading.
British ambassador, and the aid in
transporting soldiers Great Britain can
furnish probably will play part in
determining the size Of the enlarged
army.
