1t is said that when in camp during
the winter the woodsmen Of Maine en-
tertaln many strange guests-bue-
jays, chickadees, wood mice and hedge
hogs among them. One woodsman on
leaving the camp on a Saturday aft
ernoon used to neglect purposely to
close the door of his shack In order
that the hedgehogs might enter and
clean his floor.
Inasmuch as the principal constitu-
ents OF the camp menu are pork and
beans, bacon and other dishes rich in
fat, grease Is spilled upon the floor
in week and hedgehog will risk his
neck for bit OF fat
Just as soon. therefore, as This par
ticular camp was deserted by its oc-
cupants the spiny gluttons would has-
ten in and begin to plane off the sur
face Of the floor with their chisellike
teeth, eating away all the wood that
held a trace of grease. On his return
to camp the owner could sweep up
and enjoy the comforts of clean
house for another week. The only Sc
rious objection to this method Of
houseceaning lay in the fact that it
was necessary TO lay a now camp floor
frequently.

EMMY WEHLEN TONIGHT.

Emmy Wehlen will be the star at
the Rex theatre tonight when she
appears in the charming Metro pro-
duction, Sylvia On Spree"
The story is that of young girl
brought upin luxury and sheltered
ease, watched over and protected on
all sides, but who discovers, when
she at last makes her debut into So
ciety, that she has missed much Of
the fun and excitement which other
girls, possessing less wealth, are &C
customed to. She decides to remedy
this. and includes in her many plans
the bright life of broadway, the
crowded restaurants, cabarets, after
theatre suppers and all the other
gaieties which she considers 60 to
make up the sum and substance of
the word "life."
The plot is original and the happy
outcome of this somewhat risky
scheme is cleverly carried out in the
play which was directed by Harry L..
Franklyn. The cast consists of
names known to all who are familiar
with the celebrities Of the stage and
screen and include Sch players as
