Ostrich Telephoninq.

When the eggs on the ostrich farms
in California are on the point Of hatch
Ing, curious tapping of the shell may
be heard. This the keepers call "tele
phoning." The sound is caused by
the chicks inside the eggs endeavorins
to break out. Those which cannot
easily emerge are assisted by the
mother bird, which will sometimes
break an egg from which the telephon-
ing Is heard by pecking 1t carefully.
and will then aid the chick to get out.
At the Pasadena farm the sight OF
. boy riding an ostrich as he would q
pony may sometimes be seen.

ROOSEVELT NDORSES LEAGUE
OF NATIONS.
MILWAUKEE,, WIS, Angus

M4AW "A OIACC, W1O., August i o.
Endorsement of the League of Ma
tions by the United States would
have saved Poland, Franklin D.
Roosevelt, Democratic nominee for
Vice President, declared here Thurs
day night in the closing speech of
the first day of his Western speaking
trip.
The moral effect of American
membership in the league would have
halted the Russian armies without
a single American soldier crossing
the seas, he said.
History will lay a great share of
the report by for the plight of the
splendid people of Poland upon those
little narrow men in the United
States Senate; those little narrow
men who today control the machin-
cry of the Republican party" Mr..
Roosevelt declared.
"But for their desire to satisfy
personal spite the Bolshevists would
not be knocking at the gates of War
saw"
Mr.. Roosevelt's League of Nations
speech came as an answer to criti-
cism that he avoided the issue in his
Chicago speech Wednesday night.
81 am not afraid of the League of
Nations" he told his audience here,
and described the covenant at length
as an application Of moral law to in
ternational relations. He had men,
toned the league briefly in his
speech at downtown theatre.
Arriving in Milwaukee late Thurs
day evening Mr.. Roosevelt was whisk-
ed to the University Club, where he
addressed the Milwaukee Harvard
Club, and from there to the Press
Club, where he met newspaper men.

 Special interest centers in the Re publican presidential contest, in which four of the leading aspirants are asking the support of Indiana voters. Major General Leonard Wood, Governor Frank O. Lowden of Illinois, Senator Hiram w. Johnson of California, and Senator Warren G. Harding have all had the support of statewide organizations and each has tour of the state.
 There are no candidates for the Democratic nomination for president on the ballot and the Indiana law for bids the writing in of names.
 Four Democratic candidates are seeking the endorsement of the gubernatorial nomination They are Dr. Carleton McCunoch, Indianapolis; Mason Niblack, Vincennes; John Isenbarger. North Manchester, and James K. Risk, Lafayette. William J. Bryan has endorsed the candidacy of MT. Risk as he is the only candidate who has touched on the liquor issue and is an avowed "dry" Three Re- publicans are in the race for the nom- ination for governor. They are James w. Fesler Indianapolis; Warren T McCray, Kentland, and Edward c Toner, Anderson.
 Senator James P. Watson is un- opposed for the Republican nomina. tion for the U. s. Senate and so alsc is former Senator Thomas Taggart fol the Democratic nomination for the same office.

If you pay by the zone ticket your minimum fare will be cents which will entitle you to ride three zones or less. If you ride through more than three zoness your fare can be determined by multiplying the number of zones in which you ride by cents.''
 The new zone limits for each line in the Bridgeport division are given on page Il. By applying the above scale, the fares. can be easily com puted between any two points.
 Because of the fact that nine days of May will have passed before next Monday, the first working day after the new schedules go into effect, it is possible that the zone tickets will not be of great advantage to commuters until next made, unless some provi- sion is made for a rebate for this l weeks tickets.
