INDIAN KNEW WHERE TO DIG
Red Mans Action and Finds Have
Considerably Mystified Residents
of Missouri Town.

The region about Caruthersville
Mo-, is rich in lore about hidden gold
and silver and mounds rich with pot
terry. Too, there are great, strange
caves to be found Whereabouts, never
ending subjects for speculation ana
wonderment, say the Kansas City
Star.
A few years ago an Indian went to
Charlottesville with several skin maps
and du g up pottery that was worth
several thousand dollars. He offered
81, 500 to be allowed to dig into one
mound near the town. However, the
owner decided that if the mound was
worth so much money for explora-
ton purposes he would do the explor-
ing. He did and found nothing.
Some time later the Indian returned
to that section, hired man with
wagon and team and drove out into
the country to spot where three
pecan trees grew in a triangle. He
dug down and unearthed two boxes,
so heavy that man could not lift
one end Of either. He had them
shipped away and to this day their
contents is a much discussed mystery
of that locality.

Here is hot one on lawyers and a
certain sort of sportsman.
An attorney was arrested for violat-
ing the game laws-catching 16 fish
out of season. He pleaded guilty, but
when $50 per fish was the fine i'm
posed he withdrew his plea and got
brother lawyer to defend him. The
jury, in spite of the plea of guilty,
brought in a verdict finding him guilty
of catching one fish only, and fixed the
fine at $40. One of the jurors ex-
planned to the angry game warden as
follows:
"Yes, we knew he pleaded guilty
and admitted catching 16 fish. But
the jury, you know, were all of the
same mind, He was lawyer AND a
fisherman"

"Imka" is the name by which the
Y. M. G. A. Is known In Czecho-Slo-
vakia. for "Imka" Is the reasonable
pronunciation of those four letters In
the language of the mid-European
land. The Imka is very popular. When
the republic of Czecho-Slcvakia was
established, its citizens who had re-
turned from fighting with the allies
urged that the Imka, with Its canteens,
hut service, athletics and recreation. be
invited to come with them. The, invi-
tation was given and now the Imka
has been developed on an army basis
with centers in ten towns and is con-
templating establishing center In the
famous coal mine region of Teschen,
which is the bone Of contention be-
tween the new republic and the Poles.
AS this new republic Is said to hold
the worlds record for literacy, only
1 per cent being unable to read or
write, the American "Y" secretaries
find splendid cooperation in their ac'

LAUGHED AT TIMES PASSAGE
Blue Delft Saucer, Long Sunk in

Immersion in ocean.

The act of fishing smack of Eye

deeply incrusted with barnacles, lay

Now, the Eclipse was'lost at sea

bodies were thrown up, no wreckage
definitely identified with the lost
schooner was ever washed against
known shores.
Yet, over a century later, china

The London and Edinburgh Ship

sum to the British Red Gross. The
saucer was sent to the British

SnaiIs Operated Plane.

The celebrated French airman,
Georges Dombrival, has utilized the
well-knoWn instinct which scientists
have long observed is possessed by
snails. For some unknown reason, a
snail when placed on an inclined plane
crawls toward the highest part.
When NJ. Dombrival was Informed
of this he placed on the upper plane
of his Maurice-Farman machine SO
pounds of snails, two-thirds of which
were the large, slow snails of Bour-
gogne, beloved by epicures, the remain
der of smaller and more agile variety.
After rising to about 1900 feet he was
able to take his hands off the controls
for the rest Of his two hours flight.
The snails moved in a mass toward the
upper part and re-established the
equilibrium whenever the machine
dipped either literally or longitudinal
ly, thus keeping the airplane in per-
feet line of flight.

HERE BIRDS FIND SANCTUARY
Area In Delta of Yukon River, Value
less for Other Purposes, Is Now
Profitably Employed.

The most important, and by far the
largest in extent, of our national
refugees for the preservation of wild
birds is a vast area in the delta OF
the Yukon river proclaimed as such
by an edict from the White House
just ten years ago.
1t is an area approximately equal
to Massachusetts, and the most valu-
able feather species concerned are
wild geese and wild ducks, which breed
there in countless numbers.
There is found the proper home OF
the emperor" goose, the white
fronted" goose, and many species OF
ducks which are sought as game in
other ATTITUDES.
The region is known as tundra
country'-devoid of trees, swampy,
with many lakes, and of no possible
usefulness for agriculture or any 9th
er purpose. If, however, the wildfowl
are there safeguarded on their breed
ing grounds, it will he a permanent
source of game and food supply for
Alaska and the entire Pacific coast.
In order that this may come to pass,
it is necessary that the birds shall be
protected during the mating season
against the wholesale slaughter which
formerly was conducted by pot-hunt-
ers and alleged sportsmen from year
to year-a method commonly adopted
being to drive the helpless creatures
into pens built for the purpose, where
they were ruthlessly murdered.

Shark Meat Is Tasty.

Shark meat is delicate in flavor and
texture, and sharks are plentiful In
certain parts Of Florida, but the fish
ermen do not catch them because they
are not salable.
The home demonstration agent OF
Monroe county, Florida, decided last
winter on an effort to establish In
favor this fish now under the ban. AT
her request a fisherman caught one
but warned her that no one would eat
it. Undismayed, she invited a large
company Of women to home econom-
les luncheon, at which was served a
fish salad.
When all had tasted the salad she
asked for a vote as to how many liked
and wanted the recipe. Without 'ex-
ception the women voted their hearty
approval, and thus proved to them
selves that the prejudice was without
foundation.-Clevela Plain Dealer.

Exploits of BIindfolded Norwegian

Scientists In Denmark are puzzled
