Great Need In This Country, IT'S Said,
for an Explosive, EXPIRES
alive Yell.

American audiences are charged
with being unresponslve and apathet-
ic. particularly In patriotic outdoor
demonstrations. Americans are not
incapable of making loud. loyal noises.
and not averse thereto. But rarely 10
a parade staged In this city that does
not move throughout large part Of
its course between silent lines of spec
tators. The result is sometimes so
depressing as largely to neutralixs the
desired effect of the parade.
The will to cheer doubtless arises
oil along the line, but there 10 no short
and easily exploded yell known 70 us.
"Hurrah," is the traditional American
word for cheer. but no man viii ven
ture its use In public. unless In the
wake Of cheer leader who prefaces
II with ''hip, hip. hipr Even then
the usual response testifes that this
method Of cheering is getting rusty.
There Is no lack Of cheering On an
American football field. nor ut any
kind Of demonstration on college
campus. The reason for this IL that
good. expressive, explosive yells have
been devised for outdoor use. And
because they do explode, and because
they stand for something, the Ameri-
can public likes to use them. They
also like to follow good yell leader.
America needs national yell. The
man who can coin one will do the
country a great servlce.--Minneapolis
Journal.

THEY TOOK HER LITERALLY
But Probably Musical Comedy star
Did Not Mean Just What She
Threatened.

A popular musical comedy star was
taking her summer vacation In a New
England village this year. and good
natiiredly agreed TO participate In an
entertainment to be given at the
town hall for the benefit of local char
tiles. She procured from New York
one Of the costumes from her last win
ter's show. and fetching poster show
Ing herself In that same costume. Soon
after the poster was on display a dele
cation of village ladies waited upon
the committee of gentlemen who were
engineering the entertainment and pro
tested against the chic costume Of the
poster. which was. In fact. that OF the
conventional prince" of musical com
edy, with a frank II pleasing display
of silk-encased limbs.
Lets send for Miss de Lancy and
see II we can't fix 1t up" commit
teeman suggested, and this was done.
Now, besides being good natured.
Miss de Lancy is high-spirited. and
rather thought that the costume which
had been good enough for her to APP
pear In for some hundreds Of times In
New York would do for one appear
ance in Hicksvilie.
There is no use talking" she an
nounced with decision, 'I'll appear in
that costume or nothingf"
There was moment of Mortified ST.
lence. then quick whispering among
the lady delegation, and moment lat
er their protest against the proposed
costume was withdrawn.-Philade
Ledger.

COSTS MONEY TO RUN zoo
Pets OF Londoners Are Really Expen-
sive Propositions In the Feed
ing Line.

How much does 1t cost now to feed
an elephant for year? Two thousand
dollars say the officials of the London
ZOO. And giraffe costs half as much.
So that, with the increased prices of
food, have come new problems for the
keepers of menageries. The meat foods
include beef. horse flesh. guinea pigs,
rats, cats, mice. rabbits, frogs. snakes.
fish, pigeons, ducks, sparrows, gentles.
snails, ants and cod sliver oil. The ga
zelles, buffaloes and antelopes must be
provided with rock salt. They are fed
on oats, bran, hay, green clover, to-
gether with carrots and potatoes. The
birds are the most difficult to feed sat
isfactorily. Flamingoes, for instance.
require soaked wheat. boiled shrimps
and fish cut small. Some birds are
fed largely on bullock's liver. This is
cut into slices, boiled, then put through
a mincing machine. The mince is
dried In a slow oven and preserved.
The dry mince is usually mixed with
bran or pollard. Quantities OF insects
have to be kept In stock for the insect
eating birds. These are principally
meal worms and gentles which is the
polite name for meat maggots. But
for some birds flies and grasshoppers
are required. The monkeys require
fruit, such as bananas and apples.
while the snakes must be fed on small
animals. such as rabbits. mice and
rats.

Artificial Tree for Birds

DIR. ii. b. Warren is having con-
crete tree built on his lawn at West
Chester. Pa. to provide homes for
birds. The tree is upon a wire frame
10 feet high. Holes of different sizes
VIII lure the birds to meet and rest.
AT the base of the tree will be- a large
concrete bath to provide the guests
with running water at all times. IrnI.
tation limbs on the stree" win give
perching accommodations But the
question is. viii the birds be fooled
by this elaborately counterfeit tree?

On RIaksr.s pax

Charles had been going to kinder
garten about two weeks. During this
time the children had been taught the
song "When the Sun Wakes Up at
Freak of Day. The little fellow liked
Il very much and tried to sing 1t at
home. The children had been told
shout Mrs. Blaker living above the
kindergarten and that she could hear
them singing.
This fact. with the words Of the
song made deep impression on
Charles. When he reproduced the song
at home. this is what he insisted was
correct: "When the Sun Wakes Up on
Bakers Day."

Valuable Tree.

A giant kaurl tree has been logged
by the Queensland forest service and
the timber sold for $1,000. It was
known as Bells tree and yielded IT,
600 superficial feet of timber in FIVE
huge logs. and the logging costs
amounted to $500. The net stumpage
came to twelve feet 9 inches per 100
super feet. Had the tree been smaller
a higher prize would have been real
lied. as few saw-millers cared to han
die II. This giant of the forest was
offered to a kindergarten for $50 on
the stump. being at the rate OF less
than 20 cents per super feet. twelve
years ago.

HELD FAST TO THOSE FISH
indianapolis Man Was Taking No
Chances Of Losing the Prizes
He Had Secured.

Tom Genolin. of the railway mall
service. tells thrilling story of how
once upon time he was tempted and
fell; how In the early hours OF morn
ing he slipped away TO posted"
stream and drew from thence five Of
the most beautiful bass ever seen.
The climax of his story reads thus:
"The glorious day was peeping and
creeping through the silent trees
when ! gathered up my bunch Of
beauties and started homeward.
had not gone far when | laid them In
clump of grass while ! filed my
pipe. When started TO pick them
up again 10 and behold they were
gone. A slight stir under a nearby
bush brought visions of some PROV
ling thief and l threw myself prone
upon the. bush and clutched for the
place where the fish might be. That
is when awoke and gathered myself
up from the bedroom floor where !
lay clutching jangling alarm clock"
Mr. Genolin thus ends the story:
"The tragic and unbelievable part
OF my story is yet to be told. The
day after the incident related went
to the pool concerning which had
dreamed and there fished precisely
is fished in my dream and caught
five beautiful bass precisely as had
caught them in my dream and, lastly.
returned home with them. but not
once did lay them down in clump
Of grass."--Indianapolis News.

Spreading Joy.

The JOY you give others win return
to you with interest. To be sure you
do not help others for returns. That
would be mercenary and where il is
practiced men soon learn to read the
motives that prompt 1t. The result Is
a lonesome man In short time. You
will give your joy for the JOY it gives
You TO give 1t. You feel rewarded a
huntlredfold in knowing you have
helped somebody. Their grateful hearts
respond with overlooking gladness and
gratitude. Its no wonder you're glad.
Yet it's merely the action Of the old
law that rewards the altruistic spirit
with blessings.
