NOT ALL DUE TO COMEDIAN
Part of Laughable Entertainment Was
Being Furnished by Original
Tenants of Barn.

Speaker Sweet said the other day
In the New York state legislature at
Albany:
Because an agitator gets a lot of
newspaper space it does not necessa-
rily mean that he is a great man.
Newspaper space may mean something
else. 1t reminds me of story
"a rich man hired comedian to
entertain the workers on his estate
one evening. The entertainment was
staged in the barn. and it went well,
almost too we'll. The comedian, in
fact, had hardly got under way when
the barn began to shake with shouts
of laughter. Soon the laughter became
so uproarious that the rich man rose
and said:
Friends, know how difficult it is
to restrain our mirth when Mr.. Back
chat is on the stage, but really, you
know. if we don't hold ourselves in
just little the performance will hard
ly be over by midnight
'Then a burly plowman rose in his
turn.
Excuse me. boss he said; it amt
Mr.. Backchat we're laughin' at but
somebody left the door open and all
the pigs have got in. and they're nearly
pushin us off our seats.'"

BIue-Jay Ways.

Last spring a pair of blue jays
nestled in the crotch of maple just
below my study window. What time
they had of nest building! The female
insisted on building in crotch below
while the male thought crotch higher
up afforded more advantageous loca-
cation. They talked and scolded.
building first in one place then in the
other. In the end the female had her
way, and the mnkeshift bunch of twigs
and brush was collected. The birds
were silent for weeks, tending strictly
to family cares; the half Of which the
male bird assumed without murmur
or complaint. All summer long they
were silent, but toward fall they Joined
their voices with those of the other
Jays in the neighborhood. 1t was a
new slant on blue jay methods, and
hereafter shall regard the birds with
wee bit more appreciation.-Chci

ANOTHER TRIUMPH FOR AUTO
southwest's Most Dreaded Spot, Death
Valley. Has Been Made Safe
for Travellers.

Death valley, once the terror Of
the traveller in the Southwest and the
last resting place of many early-day
pfospectors, is being made safe for
travel both day and night.
This erstwhile barrier to human
progress has been conquered by the
automobile. Its trackless waste Of
sand has been sign-posted and its hid
den water holes marked. by Uncle
Sam. Not content with merely maxi
Ing the desert easy to cross for trav-
elers in daylight, the Automobile Club
OF Southern California is going far
ther and is placing signs in such man
ner that the rays of the headlights
from passing machines will fall upon
them and guide the night tourist as
safely and surely as the day traveller.
The Automobile club also will sign
post all lateral routes of the famous
Death valley district Included in the
sign posting being done will be COM
plete set of road signs directing tour
lists to picturesque Palm canyon, on
the edge of the desert-one of the
most unique spots in the world.
This oasis in the sandy wastes is
to be made a national monument by
the government. Its distinctive fea-
ture is the presence of ancient palms
of weird beauty, standing in straight
rows, apparently planted by the hand
of man, but antedating history of the
first human beings in this section.
