II seems to many that the nation
wide search for the 'baddest boy
would be more interesting If it were
conducted along more intelligent lines
The searchers, it seems, start out ir-
responsibly, frankly and specihcaiiy
demanding the worst boy. They'll
never find him in such a simple man
ner. for the boy they're seeking is
bad. and that means he's clever. He
probably does not attend Sunday
school the year round, but very likely
he gets in on all the Christmas trees.
Why not, then, catch him with a
Christmas tree? Pass the word out
that next Christmas there will be
tree with presents for good little boys;
no bad little boy will be allowed a
lool-in: bad little boys are not wanted,
and are defied to get in by any hook
or crook. Then, after the exercises
are under way, the searchers may look
over their audience, and pick out their
worst boy. He may be hard to pick
out from all the rest, but he'll be there.

Nioht Doctors

"Paris has organized a service of
night DOCTORS" writes a correspond
ent from the French capital. "It is
rather remarkable" continues the cor
respondent, that we have not had this
before. "You fall i'll in the night, or
your relation falls i'll. You immedi-
ately telephone to the family doctor
Possibly he is out attending a case.
Who, then, to summon? You don't
know. Someone thinks there is doc
tor two streets away, and away you
dash. Yes, he is in, and he will come.
He comes. He is a tired man. HIS
eyes are heavy with sleep. Aside, he
tells you he has had little rest for
week. If your own medical adviser
had come it would have been the same.
What travesty of system to work
men night and day! Manifestly there
ought to be a panel of doctors-fresh,
vigorous, and ready for busy nights
worl-who have not been at work
during the day. In Paris, the night
doctor will be installed at the police
station and he will be ready, of course,
TO 90 wherever he is called"

STILL MAKE BOWS
Old Weapon of War and Chase
Not Yet Obsolete.
Quantity of Yew Wood, to Be Used
for That Purpose, Recently Sold
by the Government For
est Service.

IT Is a far cry from long range RI
hes and high-powered explosives to
the bow and arrow of the American
Indian. Nevertheless, bows and ar
rows are still used by the small boy,
albeit not without sorrow to the neigh
bor's chickens. There is also a de-
mand for stronger and more expensive
bows for archers of mature years
Doubtless these facts account for
recent sale, on the Snoqualmie ma
tional forest in Washington, of
quantity Of yew, to be used in max
Ing bows. Although the forest serv-
ice of the United States department
of agriculture sells a variety of for
est products for unusual uses, this is
probably the first case in which the
final product is to be one of the old
est and most common weapons known
to the world.
The yew has long been known as
the best of all bow woods. Famous
English archers would have no other.
Richard III. ordered bowyers to make
four bows of witch hazel ash, or elm
to every one of yew, in order that the
supply of this valued wood might be
preserved. This is said to be one of
The earliest forest regulations in Eng
land. The slaves from which bows
we're made in those early days were
seasoned for three years before being
made into bows and the bows were not
used for two years after being com
pleted.
The American yew is botanlcally
very similar to the European yew.
One of the three species found in the
United States grows only in Florida
and is a small tree. Another is
shrub growing in the north Atlantic
region, while the third occurs in the
forests of the Pacific coast. 1t is the
latter that grows in the Snoqualmie
national forest When mature it usu-
ally is from 20 to 30 feet high and
from 6 to 10 inches in diameter.
On account of its elasticity and
strength the Indians Of the Northwest
utilized the wood OF the yew for their
bows and often for canoe paddles.
Yew wood is also well adapted to
carving and numerous attractive ar
tlcles can beamade from it. Not only
does the grain of the wood make 1t
possible to carve attractive designs,
but the combination of red bark, white
sapwood, and rose-red heartwood make
especially pleasing effects possible.

champion, Alex Henderson, in the

ringer was one wherein he claims
to have lost a twenty-dollar bill in
street gutter. The bill was swept
into the sewer by street flushers.
The next morning his twenty was
found, hooked on trot line in the
river. Ensminger however, told of
an old negro who declared that when
he hauled his biggest fish from the
Missouri river, the water fell foot.
