india's Prize Fighting Birds.

In most countries little birds are
matched against one another for
beauty Of plumage or strength Of song,
but in India they are taught prize
fighting.
The quail is most commonly used In
these prize competitions. and the bird
dealers who stock the fighting kind do
a good trade among the natives. The
birds are kept In cages, scores and
scores being on view at the various
bird dealers shop. Those who engage
in the sport go the round of those
shops, and select those birds that seem
uuarrelsome to the other inmates OF
the cage. For the small additional fec
OF FIVE cents In our money the priv
ilege Is given Of selecting from the
stock In hand.
Only the male birds are used, the
females being placed In their cages
within sight Of the battle royal to en-
courage their mates TO fight. This
they readily do by means Of a peculiar
whistle. The natives have side stakes
on the fight, but the only consolation
the winning bird receives for perhaps
few bruises and good shaking up
- nheral feed Of delicacies.

Cliff Swallows Revenge.

: L. NJ. Hollingsworth tells story Of
the way cliff swallow treated blue
bird who had stolen its nest:
! while making my home with
grandmother, an uncle told me the
following incident In the life Of the
cliff swallows. One spring, on re-
turning to their old home under the
caves, a pair of the swallows found
their nest already in possession of a
pair of earlier blue birds. They tried
I'm vain to drive them out. At last
they called n council of war In which
the whole company Joined. After
reaching a decision, they formed a
constant line Of swallows from the
horse pond to the nest, each carrying
a little pellet Of mud. Each one built
his pellet into the mouth Of the nest
until they had the blue bird that held
the nest walled up within 1t. The
nest afterward became dislodged and
fell with the carcass Of the blue bird
still within II. The bird had died in
its prison"

THE TRAVELS OF THE LITTLE
TOY SOLDIER
He was the largest and the best
dressed and the bravest looking of all
the toy soldiers in the toy shop. Some
of the toy soldiers were made of pa
per and these tore easily if they even
tried to drill. Some of the toy SOL
diers were made of tin and these bent
if they had an encounter. But this
toy soldier, who stood head and shoul-
ders above the others was made of
wood. He had once been part of a
great pine tree that stood in the for

PATRIOTISM THROUGH PLAY

Every child loves the toys that have
to do with soldering, loves to watch
a parade and has an ideal of soldier
hood in his, heart as form of patri-
otic service to be emulated and prac-
tised. These instructive interests of
childhood are guideposts for us in
education. Find out what your child
likes to play and likes to play with
and then see how the interest can be
used for the child's best develop
ment.
The toy sword should be symbol
of defense of. the right and of pro-
lection of the weak rather than just
a plaything that stimulates rough
amusement. So, also may the toy
soldier like the soldier of this story.

Red Cross Benefit
Brilliant Success

The hallmark of the Red Cross
was written large all over Elks Tenn
fple Washington's Birthday evening,
when, through the unfailing patriot
ism and public spirit of the local B.,
p. o. L. its noble building was
thrown open for the Red Cross benefit
ball and card party. The composite
character of this event, with dancing
for the young and lively, cards for
the more staid, knitters cosy COR
ner for the industrious, and spec
tators' admission for those preferring
the passive pleasure of "just looking
on" apparently appealed to all
tastes and ages, for more than 800
people assembled to enjoy the occa-
sion.
Red Cross banners everywhere
commingled with the stars and
stripes, allied flegs and pussy will
lows made both card rooms and ball
room gay and festive. In the former
the wide hearth, with huge six-foot
logs, the gift of j. G. Hurt, threw its
cheerful glow over the 25 tables of
card players gathered there, while in
the dancing hall above a flag-draped
portrait of George Washington look
ed down from the gaily decked walls
on the celebration in his honor.
The strains of the five-piece Or
chestra with Mrs. Loveland at the
piano; Frank Jordan, bass viol;
Charles Henfelman, drum; o. Pow
ers, violin, and Mr.. White, trombone,
pervaded the building and set even
elderly feet to beating time.
On both floors were cleaning
punch bowls presided over by three
young, powdered-haired and very
lovely Lady Washingtons in the per-
sons of Misses Edith Cole, Alice Poor
and Dorothy Jones.
At 1880 the card players termin-
ated their sessions, the first prize, a
bunch of red carnations (Which. by
the way, together with the smilax
used in decorating, were a gift to the
Red Cross from Sanders green

house,, being awarded to Mrs. Chas.
Hargadine. The adjourned card
players then trooped to the BALLROOM
above to join the other spectators in
admiring the brilliant scene there
presented, where the soft and bright
hued ball gowns of the many women
dancers made a kaleidoscope of col
ors. At this point in the proceedings
Jake Snyder introduced much-ap-
preciated specially in the form of
fine exhibition of clog dancing.
That the more than AZ people on
the committees in charge of this huge
benefit understood their business
was evidenced by the perfect arrange
ments throughout. While it is a
hard matter 10 discriminate among
SO many willing and efficient work
ers, it is impossible not to mention
the executive ability shown by the
committee of three, Miss Patterson
and Mesdames Pracht and Boslough,
who had the whole thing under gen.
eral supervision, and the able serv-
ices of the floor committee and deco
ration committee in their respective
departments. However, a need of
praise is due to each any every one
of the committees in charge.
AS result of this benefit the Red
Cross is $19S the richer. Almost the
whole of the proceeds were profit,
for, beginning with the Elks' dona-
tion of their magnificent building as
a setting down through the free ad-
vertising given us by the press and
by Mrs. o. 7. Bergner at the Vining,
to the gratis transfer work and haul
ing, the needed accessories were
nearly all free gifts from friends of
the Red Cross. To those loyal
friends who contributed individually
and collectively, to the brilliant sue
cess of the occasion, as we'll as to the
many kind patrons who so gener-
ously helped on the cause, the local
Red Cross extends its grateful
thanks and appreciation.

Do | Have Trouble With My
Spine?

Because you have no pain in your
back is no sign your vertebrae are in
perfect order. If nerve leading to
your liver is impinged where it emerges
from the spine the disease will be in
the liver and not in the back.
This is true of all organs and tissues
Of the body. If nerves leading to the
tissues Of the back are impinged then
the disease will be in the tissues of
the back. The subluxation may not be
great enough for your family physician
or others to find it, but remember their
fingers are not trained for such work
and that the Chiropractors are.
Chiropractic is in fact a new school
of healing. Its teaching is radically
different from other methods, both
drug and drugless, yet in perfect har-
mony with anatomy and physiology.
1t teaches that disease is caused by
occlusion of nerve force, caused by
pressure on spinal nerves by slight dis
placements in the spine, and that to
relieve these diseased conditions these
slight displacements must be adjusted,
thus releasing the nerve force to the
diseased tissues.
If your spine is right your hearth
is right.
