DON'T TICKLE THE CEusT
wisdom Of That Particular
Form Of PIayfuIness.

One should never tickle a cello play
er in the ribs, especially if he is IA
nous one such as Phillip Abbas Of the
Detroit Symphony orchestra, remarks
the Detroit News in a recent issue.
Graham Harris, second violinist, did,
and it almost cost him lot of trou-
BILE, to say nothing of new violin
bow.
The story came out when Harris
fled suit for 500 in justice court
against Abbas. It was a story of tenn
permanent and temper and the trouble
arose at rehearsal. OSsip Gabrilo-
witsch, director, was away for few
minutes, and the temperamental ones
INDUCED in few moments Of play
boy, not music. Harris reached his
violin bow over and tickled Abbas In
the ribs. Abbas does not care to be
tickled in his ribs and he swung a
wicked cello bow to demonstrate that
he did not care for tickling. There
was a snap and the second violinist's
best bow was a mess and a wreckage.
"Ah, ha." shouted Harris. you
have broken my bow. You shall pay
"Shan't," shouted Abbas. "Your
own fault. You had no business in
my ribs" They glared and then the
director appeared and the fight was
dropped. 1t was taken up again via
justice court suit. 1t is believed that
the suit never will be heard. The or
chestra manager heard about 1t first.
He got the men together, scolded,
fumed, argued coaxed and at last
won. They shook hands. The dam
age was settled. And harmony Of
both sorts reigned.

LAMB THAT GREW ON TREE
according to the TaImud, Remarkable
Plant Furnished Food for Our
Very Remote Ancestors.

How often is the wish expressed
tnat money grew on trees? Why not
wish for lamb to grow that way, for
according to the Latin translation Of
the Talmud Of Jerusalem, that ancient
book Of law and customs, wonderfully
tender and eatable lambs did grow on
trees
This work, remarks a writer In the
New York Evening Sun, tells Of a
plant called the jeduah, which was
formed like lamb. From a bunch Of
rather coarse. thick leaves there is
sued steam on which the zoOphyte
grew, so the story goes. In every re-
spect it was formed like an animal
suspended on a stalk within the radius
Of which it grazed. 1t devoured all
the heritage which 1t was able to reach
within the circle Of its tether, and
then unless some overventurous ami
NAL came near enough for 1t to snatch
the lamb would die of starvation.
Our remote ancestors hunted the
lamb at great risk. for historians tell
us that the lamb had not earned its
reputation for gentleness then. It was
extremely ferocious, especially If it
had exhausted its provender. The
only way to overcome it was to cut the
stem by well-aimed darts or arrows
sent from safe distance. Once the
stem was severed the animal fell to
the earth soon to die, and the sue
cessful hunter could safely come forth
to carry his game back to his cave
home.

Casing Forest Elre impractical.

The officials of the United States
department Of agriculture have been
in receipt Of so many suggestions rel
alive to extinguishing forest fires with
the use Of gas bombs dropped from air.
planes that it has been found neces-
sary to issue statement for the pur.
pose Of explaining that the scheme is
not feasible. For the purpose Of over
coming a detachment of men, a mix
ture of one part of virulent poison to
100000 Of air would be entirely suf-
ficient to accomplish the purpose, but
one of $50 parts to the thousand would
not be powerful enough to, quench a
confiagratiOn. Another thing to be
taken into consideration is the difficult
ty Of dropping the bombs with the nee
essary precision. The art of striking
target with any degree Of accuracy
has not been developed at this time
and there is no prospect that 1t will
be sufficiently perfected to the point Of
becoming available for the purpose Of
fighting fires.

ITALIANS WINE
BILL is NEARLY
BILLION A YEAR
Workers Can't Buy Bread
But Spend S900,000,-
900 for Drink; Wheat
Production on Decrease.
ny The Associated Press)

Rome, Nov S.-Professor Ugo
Ancona, formerly under secretary
of transportation in the Italian
cabinet, has Just made public a
statement that while the Italian
government has spent more than
$1,000, 900 900 a year for bread for
the people, the Italian workers
have spent $500, 900, 600 year on
wine alone
The governments expenditure
for bread has resulted from its
undertaking to pay the difference
between the cost of producing
wheat and the price of bread. In
consequence Of this the Italian
workers have been able to buy
bread at the rate of one Ira for
each kilograrn OF 22O pounds,
Professor Ancona says that while
the workers refuse to pay more
than this, they have no objection
to paying 4 or 3 lire for for quart
of wine, which before the war cost
about II cents a quart. He asks
whether it is just that the italian,
government should continue to
supply over 81 ,000, 600, 600 annual
ly for bread when the people do
not grudge 5000 100000 a year for
the luxury Of wine.
The professor advocates that the
Italians should eat less bread and
pay what it costs and that they
should drink less wine and export
more of it, so that the profit on
wine would help. to pay for i'm
portation of bread.
The amount of land given over
to wheat production in Italy great
" decreased last year. The dsas-
trous result 's that the imports are
increasing daily.
