What's Better Than
Picnic In The Glen?

If you go out to the Glen most
any time now you are apt to see
a great crowd of people scattered
over the picnic grounds, the swings
and shoots and teeter-totteTs in
continual and violent motion, and
the monkey cage surrounded by a
crowd of happy looking people,
oh ing and "ah"- ing about the
cute little things"
And the reason for al this is that
there is a Sunday School picnic
somewhere on the grounds. Many
Sunday Schools have already ans
wered the cal of the Glen to come
out and have an interesting time
where it is rather cool, instead of
staying in the hot town.
Last Saturday, the Baptist Sun
day School had grand good time
out there with its annual picnic.
Wednesday, the children (and, of
course, the grown-ups, too) of the
Trinity Lutheran Church rode out
in trucks an automobiles, and
ANY way to get there" to the
good old picnic grounds, for an all
day picnic.
Thursday was the day for the
big, annual picnic of St. Paurs
Lutheran Church.
Every picnic-er, asked about the
reported fine time.

A CAMEL'S STOMACH

The stomach of a camel is d.
vided into four compartments, and
the walls of these are lined with
large cells, every one of which can
be opened and closed at will by
means of powerful muscles. When
a camel drinks, it drinks a great
deal. Indeed, it drinks for such a
long time that you really would
think it never meant to leave off.
The fact is that it is not satisfying
its thirst, but is filling up it's els
tern as well. One after another
the cells in its stomach are filled
with the water, and as soon as each
is quite full, it is tightly closed.
Then when a few hours later the
animal becomes thirsty, all that it
has to do is to open one of the cells
and allow the water to flow out.
Next day 1t opens one or two moro
cells, and so it goes on day after
day until the whole supply is ex-
hausted. In this curious way
camel can live FIVE or six days with
out drinking at all, and SO is able
to travel quite easily through the
desert, where the wells are often
hundreds of miles sophisticated

Brothers Called
From Fishing

One day two brothers named
Andrew and Peter were out in their
boat upon the lake fishing. They
were letting down a big net into
the water and catching the fish
that came into the net. Suddenly
they heard a voice they knew and
loved, calling to them. 1t was the
voice of Jesus. He called, Peter!
Andrew" The men stopped to lis
ten to what Jesus wanted to say.
He said, Come and follow me-"
AS soon as he spoke to Peter and
Andrew and said: Come, follow
Me-" they stopped fishing and
sailed back to the shore. Then
they got out of their boat and leav-
ing their nets, they went with
Jesus. Peter and Andrew minded
Jesus at once. AS they walked
along the shore with Jesus they
came to two other brothers in a
boat with their father. The names
OF these brothers were James and
John. They were not fishing just
then. They had been fishing, but
their nets were broken, and they
were in their boat mending their
nets.
Jesus saw these brothers work
ing with their father and called
Come and follow me-" When
the brothers heard Jesus they did
not say, Wait until we finish
mending our nets" but they got
right up and went with Jesus.
They minded him at once Their
father was glad to let them go with
Jesus and learn to be kind and
helpful.
Jesus says, children, obey your
parents" - Robert, Whitewater
School.

signal was? For a while they
greeted each other like ships at
sea, with the sailors cry, "Ahoy,"
but later on the word Hello" was
adopted. That was the first long.
distance telephone message ever
sent. Not a long one. when we con-
slider that today a Bostonian may
speak with person in San Fran
cisco, but a real achievement at
that time. The young men were
so excited at their success in
speaking over twomile telegraph
wire that they talked till past mid
night. when Watson finally rolled
the precious instrument in a piece
of newspaper and crept homeward.
It Can Talk" Japanese.
The item was published next
morning by a Boston paper, and
from that time on the little labor
atory of the two men became a
sort of shrine for experts and other
interested people, who came from
far and near to see the telephone
and to hear it talk Among the
quaint visitors whom Mr. Watson
mentions were two eager little Jap
anese students, who came regular
ly, and who took huge delight in
proving that the telephone would
talk Japanese.
Many able men, using the instru-
ment for the first time, were so
nonplused as to seem quite incapa-
BILE of prompt and intelligent reply.
One well-known lawyer listening to
Mr.. Watsons How do you do?"
over the phone, hesitated long
time, and then stammeringly re-
piled, rig jig jig and away we
go"
But with the many, many tele-
phones in use everywhere today,
we are so accustomed to them that
we frequently forget that the first
one was born in Boston on June 2,
less than IS years ago.

BEAUTIFUL NEW BIRDS WELCOMED
BY ANIMALS AT OUR zoo

a person has to be very, very
sleepy to do that.
So it is with the alligators !!
LIES greatest enjoyment is to lie
asleep in the sun. They may open
sleepy eye and look at you if you
hit on the side of the cage, but they
would much rather not. The big
one is twentysix years old, and the
little ones are about six.
The old ground hog, who is gray
only because he is a captive, only
arouses himself when it comes
time to eat his bread and milk. If
he were wild he would be a reddish
brown color when he is full grown.
The reason that wild groundhOgs
are this color, is that they lie
asleep in the sun so much.
The posums, too. are SNOOPY
creatures. The little one with the
long, gray fur, is only three months
old.
The guineas, squirrels, and white
rabbits are the "nibbly' folks, and
spend their long day, nibbling
screenings, bits of bread, or grass.
And Best of All, the Monkeys.
Perhaps the most popular mem
bers of the zoo are the two little
monkeys, Carrie and Tom, that just
arrived in Richmond this summer,
Their popularity is due, not so
much to their beauty as to their
playfulness. and their good dispo-
sitions. Tom, the larger one, is
about ten months old. and can
stand on his head, of which stunt
he is very proud. He likes to play
with the coons (short for raccoOns)
who live in the other half of the
double house If the big old rae
coon gets too serious, and snaps
at Tom, he withdraws to place
higher up, puts his slender arm
through the wire and boxes Mr.
Coon's ears soundly. Tom rather
scares little Carrie. She does wish
that he wouldn't be quite so bossy
and would let her have the bell
sometimes when she wants it.
Carrie is only seven months old,
and thinks Richmond pretty good
home. at least that's the way she
acts, for she seems very happy and
contented Since Tom will not let
her have the bell very much, she
has spent a good deal of time on
~
deal of climbing, and tumbling and
hanging around, if there is a big
enough crowd near the cage to ad-
mire her ability.
These monkeys live mostly on
fruit and bread and milk. But they
like peanuts. Oh, indeed they do!
Just try them and see!

Royalty Amuses
u. S. Fighters


Entertained right royalty are
the men of the A. E. F. The roy
atty OF two continents is sending
It's Processes to amuse them. Only
recently the Princess Marie of Rou-
mania visited the leave area at AK
les Bains with her mother, the
Queen, and danced in a tag dance
with American privates.
And the Y. NJ. C. A. has sent
three native American princesses
to Europe to dance and sing. prin-
cesses that belong to the ancient
royalty that held sway over vast
areas of this continent before Co
lumbus set foot on American soil.
The Princess Bluefeather traces
her descent, on the distaff side
TO Montezuma, emperor of the
AZtecs. Her mother was of purest
Aztec blood, she insists, and her
father was Frenchman by the
name of Des Champs. The prin-
cess spent her childhood with a
trloe OF Indians in Oregon, and
learned from them many Indian
songs, legends. tribal dances and
lncantations with which she is now
entertaining nightly the crowds of
doughboys who flock to see her.
The Princess Tsianina is another
indian princess who won fame as
a singer in the opera companies Of
Charles Wakefield Cadman on the
Pacific coast. She was adopted in
childhood by a wealthy white fam
Ivy IN Denver and given a good edu-
cation The dying request of her
Indian mother that she should al
ways wear the native Indian dress.
has been observed, and, regardless
OF the stares Of the crowds, the
princess has walked unconcerned
through the cities of the old world
as she used to walk through those
OF the new, in her beaded leather
robes. She reached Germany and
for months entertained the soldiers
there with native songs and dances
appearing alone and in concerts
with Mr.. Cadman. Princess Tsia-
nina is composer of ability. She
has made a close study of Indian
customs and folklore and her pro-
grams were always well received
by the soldiers. She went abroad
last September.
The third of the royal trio is the
Princess Galilohi, who also is
known under the English name Of
Anna Ross. Her father was Rob
ert Ross, hereditary king of the
Cherokees of Oklahoma, and she
comes from TaleQuah, the former
capital Of the Cherokee nation in
the Ozark foothills.
For two years before going
abroad she appeared with Ernest
Thompson-Seton, the naturalist,
giving recitals of folklore and
songs and dances of the various
Indian tribes. She was the model
for the Zolnay statue of Sequoya,
one of her own ancestors and the
inventor of the Cherokee alphabet,
which stands in the Hall Of Fame
at Washington. and she officiated
at the unwilling Of the statue last
year. Her Indian name signifies
One Who Does Things-Well and
her success in serving the boys
abroad has satisfied them that the
name is one she well merits.

the maline that twist and fluff about
the throat and lower face in a seduc-

Departing a lit from the all ma

with tobacco-brown maline scarf is
a rich and harmonious combination,
though the brown scarf fastened to a
turban of the same toned maline
makes a brown study that most any
one would delight to be in.
Getting away from these hybrid

In white embroidered net or black

the reason why the summer girls are
all shedding their summer furs to
emulate Queen Louise's net neck

find the frothy scarves of rnaline and

Probably its because they find them
so becoming.

Woman Says She Didn't Get Enough
 Soldier BOarders

Alleging that the Stamford Rolling Mills sent her only 29 soldiers as boarders although they promised to send 100, Minnie H. Hill of Stamford will appear in the common pleas court tomorrow to testify in her suit gainst the mills She asks for $75O damages
 During the labor shortage last aut- umn when the Stamford manufa Ctur- CTS needed men they asked the gov ernment to send limited service soI- diers to work in the shops. A num- Der were ordered from Camp Upton, N Y, to Stamford and the Stamford Rolling Mills arranged to have 100 of these board at Mrs. Hills, she says. She claims to have spent con- siderable money arranging for the accommodation Of this number and then says only % appeared at her house. Philip Goodman, another Stamford resident, brought a similar suit last week against the Rolling Mills but lost the case.
