THAT CRY FOR WOOD

tSt. Paul Pioneer FreSSD
 No it isn't true that this cry We Want Wood is due to the coal short age. More likely it is due to a desire for a less continuous flow of hot air.

ANGRY TREE" IS CURIOUS
! PRODUCT OF IDAHO STATE
Flutters Violently and Emits Nause-
ating Odor if Touched at Night

A species of the acacia tree grows
in Idaho which attains a height of
about eight feet. When full grown it
closes its leaves together in coils each
day at sunset When the tree has
thus settled itself for its nights sleep
it will fiutter violently if touched, and
if the branches are shaken the tree
will emit nauseating odor The ma
tives call it the "angry tree" and it
is believed to have been discovered
by some men who were making a
camp for the night, and placed one
end of a canvas covering over one Of
its sensitive branches 20 use as q
support. Immediately the tree began
to jerk its branches sharply. The mo-
ton continued with increased 'ner-
vousness," until there came an OBJ
noxious odor that drove the tired
men to a more hospitable camping
place.

WOMEN WANT NO
CAVE HIN HUSBANDS
AMERICAN WIVES INSIST THEY
ARE NOT SLAVES-SENoR
1BANEz IS MISTAKEN.

Viscent Blasco Ibanez, the noted
Spanish novelist, appears to have maze
a grave faux pas in his estimate OF
the American woman and her nome
life in the statement he is said to
have made in Philadelphia some days
ago. His alleged remarks on that oc-
casion have spread far and wac
throughout the nation.
Ibanez is said to have made the FOL
lowing statement which has virtually
burned "hot trail through inc
country:
DTThe American man has mental
cording to social standards. But Wom-
the door with rolling pin, either ut
orally or figuratively speaking, ac'
cording to social standards. But WON
en- want to be dominated. They DO
not like the bowling and seraplng OF
the American man. A woman likes
master, not a slave.
Greatly Mistaken Say Women.
Thus does the author of 1.-THE -Four
Horsemen of the Apocalypse set forth
his impression of the American wife
The women declare that he Is much,
oh indeed, greatly mistaken.
One young matron intlmated that ne
chad his nerve to come over here and
tell us what we like and what we don't
like in the way of husbands The
opinions that simultaneously burst
forth recently in a group OF marned
women when the name of lbanez was
mentioned would bring one to the CON
clusion that American women most de-
cidedly do not want masters. Neither
do they want slaves, they declare.
"What an intelligent American
woman wants" said one, is hus-
band on whose judgment she can re-
". SIC wants { home that is govern
ed On a basis of common sense, not
domination by either herself or her
husband Most certainly she wants
a companion and I am sure no woman
with a mind of her own wants to be
ruled by anyone. We don t yearn for
a cave man as Ibanez's remarks seem
to indicate. -
Not American Home Life
The author has missinterpreted Amer
lean home life, in the opinion of ev-
ery woman interviewed on the sub
ject. The effect of his statement on
some members of his own ssex was
considered by one woman, who said:
"Some foolish men might read thar
stuff and think they could rule their
wives with an iron hand ndthat their
wives with an iron hand and that their
put into practice the men would be
sadly fooled.
81 don t know how young this Span
lard is, but he has lot to learn, for he
has no insight into our home life.
Whether the noted guest of the ma
zion actually believes in the leave
man stuff" is doubtful, but he is re-
ported as having said that women are
tired of ruling their husbands, as
seems the common practice in America,
and yearn for masters themselves.

evening. He had gone to Carol with

doctors study he had perceived an

end. He had fancied that if he could

Morgan, if he could prevent the world
and especially that part of it per-
sonal to the Cullens and Durants-
from knowing what despicable thing
it was that Dick Morgan had done, he
could save a modicum of pain for
those who would otherwise be most
affected. This conception had inter
fered to make his talk with Carol
somewhat aimless he had
been under the dual necessity of damn
ing Hilliard, without duplicating Nor
gan. And how bunglingly he had ac-
complished. it How inefficiently--how
unsuccessfully!
On impulse, he checked the speed of
the car, and swerved to the left; he
was actuated by sudden desire to run
over to the University club and see
Armstrong. He had no definite plan
as to what he should say or do; he
merely craved to meet his rival face
to face, and have it out with him. Man
to man-and this time there should be
no bungling.
Mr.. Armstrong, it seemed, was in the
library and would come down
directly. Indeed, he followed almost
on the heels of the messenger.
"Wlly, hello, billiard" he said, rath-
err stiltedly. did you want to see me?
That's too bad-Fve got to leave here
in just couple of seconds to catch
