PIGEON IS CLEVER
AND is RESPECTABLE
From New-York Sun.

An ~onithologist has been studying
the flight Of pigeons. He says:
1.-The domestic pigeon is such a Ia
miliar sight in our streets that we
don't helf appreciate its beauty and
c~leverness. It flies in military forma-
ton. evidently following a supremely
skillful leader of stunts. The flafal
sometimes 40 or SO strong, man
euvers as a unit, constantly attack
ing more difficult evolutions.
First, they will practise the joyous
and dizzy curves, full Of unexpected
twists, in which an occasional unWary
one becomes a stragg!er from the
flock, at a great height above the city.
Then suddenly their indistinguishable
leader VIII sweep them down to the
dangerous vicinity Of roofs and Chin
nexs and lead them through a may
obstacle race, which must make the
brains of the young birds dizzy. l
don't know whether 81 pigeon is ever
dashed 70 death against prickwork or
masonry, but such is the peril that
faces the weaklings Of those gruelling
tests of efficiency.
1.-The pigeon has other important
CldlillS Ol Jul OopSSI. ioi
ne marries one wife only. and if she
behaves herself he lives with her
haPpily for a lifetime. He helps her
build the nest, hatch the eggs n
feed the young. During the breeding
season he and she secrete a milky
fluid in their crops to moisten the
food they give to their babies. They
are vegetarians, they are p~eaceable,
intelligent and resourceful; in fact, If
you remembered all their virtues you'd
never eat roast squad again"

DISLIKE SONS TO GROW UP
Their Boys Go Out Into the
Hard World.

Almost every mother keeps her boy
in "knee pants" just as long as she
can she hates to see him becoming a
man, for she feels that he is getting
away from her.
A mother sees only With reluctance
the boy pass from the love and care
and peace with which she has sur
rounded him, out into the world Of
pitiless endeavor in which he must
play his part.
The mothers selfish fondness dis
closes itelf in the llIlicrous child's
garment and the WORKOUT, home-bred
horse with which she pends forth the
would-be knight. These are to the
modern analytical mind painfully sym
bolic Of the unconscious interference
Oh the part Of parents with the proper
adult equipment of their children for
an Independent. life. Their apparent
6ondness conceaiS the unconscious wish
that the child will find Himself un-
equipped for THE greater world and
compelled to turn back to the shelter.

No Court of Appeal for Judge.

A great many folks in the District

 Ray G. Day and w. G. Johnson are members of the present Council and are candidates for reelection.

 Campaign Free From Personalities : The campaign has been quiet and free from personalities. yet there has been considerable quiet work carried on by the. supporters of the different tickets.
 4 The registration is almost 200 votes less than it was year ago. This is partly accounted for by the fact that only citizens are allowed to vote now, whereas last year, those having their first papers could vote. s The cold weather and the lack of heat in the municipal campaign also probably have played parts in the light registration. If the conditions had been the same, the registration would probably have been heavier this year than last year because 1t is believed, there are more people here.
 88e Registered
 The registration this year is SSS against 1,070 last year The vote cast last year was an even 1000. It is expected to reach $50 tomorrow. Meals any time you want then ct the Alaska Grill. adv.

ADlNA FARM LOSES ONE
OF ITS VALUABLE COWS
Registered Holsteln Holding Great
MILK and Butter Record, Is Found
Dead ut Minerva Stock Farm.

Emblagaard Hengerfeld Mona, the
big 2,000-pound Holstein COW that at
tracted so much attention at the Ger
mantown Fair the past two years was
found dead at Adina Farms last night.
A post mortem examination by veter-
marian Boone Phillips revealed the
fact that death was caused by tympan-
tits.
Although her owners carried insur-
ance to the extent of $4,000 her loss
is hard to estimate, as her eight
months old bull calf was sold in Sep
tomber for $1,000, and the wonderful
records which she had made insured
fancy prices and a strong demand for
her offspring.
This cows best official record was
29.76 pounds of butter and 615 pounds
of milk in days. This is the high
est Of any COW in this section of the
state.
Her owners stated that her place
would be filled as soon as 1t was pos
sible to locate a COW with as good
quality and as high or higher records
They also expect to do some officiaI
testing on cows now in the herd.
