SOME FISH OF RECORD SIZE
Finny Monster Claimed to Have Been
Taken or New Jersey-Remark-
able Devil Fish.

America claims TO have caught the
largest fish on record--an enormous
ray hnrpooned on New Jersey, weigh
Ing -four tons, and needing six oxen
and % men to drag It ashore. The
battle with the fish lasted nine hours,
and ii lashes up spray TO a height OF
over 30 feet.
Allowance must be made for some
exaggeratiOn, but there. are on record
other cases where gigantic rays, or
devil fish, have been harpooned.
one taken of Jamaica was so big
that II took 40 men TO drag IL along
the beach. Even rays caught In Brit
ish waters are sometimes Of great size,
Ike one that was sold In the fish
market at Cambridge 1t weighed 224
pounds, and when cooked and served
at st. Johns college was sufficient TO

Every good citizen should talk patri-
otism. They should not hesitate to
preach it on the street corners, in the
hotel Hobbies and everywhere. That is
the way to meet the reds and beat
them with their own weapons. The
truth is on our side, their arguments
are lies and their every position in this
country is false one. The people
need education, they need to be told
the difference between citizenship in
this country and in Europe, they need
to be reminded Of the opportunities
here that are entirely wanting there,
and they need most OF all to be taught
that honesty pays best, and that sue
cess waits on honest efIort.-News-

that, OF course is TO be expected from
San Francisco. The convention will
endorse the League Of Nations in a
manner which leaves no possible
ground for misinterpretation, and 1t
will, it is to be hoped, treat al other
issues in the same frank, honest and
manly fashion.
AS TO candidates, there are a dozen

HOW C0BBLER FOOLED DEVIL
Good Story of the Discontinue OF the

The old story about the moated

related by Capt Harry Lewis in the
"ArcheOlogia Combrensls:"
"Once upon time the devil quar-
relied with the people of the RhOndda,

so, he dug up a spadeful of English
earth, and set out TO dam the River

till he reached the foot of Rhubina

castle near the old smithy of Heven

Looking up, he espied cobbler com

back. The cobbler had been, as was
then the custom, going round the
countryside collecting shoes TO be
mcnded, ana the sack was full Of old
shoes that needed soing. Good day.
said the devil; how far is It to Castell
CochY The cobbler was no fool, and
recognizing at once with whom he had
to deal, guessed that the devil was
contemplating some mischief So he
opened his bay and, displaying the
old shoes with soles full Of holes, an
swored that he had worn them all out
walking from Castel Coch. The devil
was too tired To pursue what he Inn
ag.ned must be very long Journey,
ana in disgust threw The spadeful Of

THE MULE
Bv DR.. Frank Crane

By DR.. Frank Crane
have always had friendly feeling for
the mule. He does the worlds hardest work
and yet is the most ill-treated of animals.
1t seems to be human nature to abuse and
brow-beat the merely useful, and to pamper
and glorify the merely ornamental Else why
are the gilded danes in the cabarets fed ON
orangeade at a dollar a glass, while the wash
women and scrub-women get dollar day?
: Also why is friend mule who raises the
crops hauIs the loads, and wins the wars
of the world, treated with ridicule and nasty
gibe, while ladies nurse worthless, do-less
and superfluous chow dogs?
Why work. anyhow? See what you get!
Harvey Riley, superintendent of govern
ment mules for more than thirty years, has
written mule book, which is mighty in
teresting reading" 1t explains lot of
things.
For instance, why does mule kick? Sim
ply to protect himself which is an obedience
to the first LAWYER life. If he is properly
broken in and kindly treated he will not kick
(Note: maybe.)
Few animals respond to kindness better
than the mule. If his man-master will not
spring at him nor shout at him, nor strike
MIN, nor otherwise brighten him, he will be
more easily managed than a horse Most of
the mules cussedness is due to the cussed-
ness OF the man who has charge of him.
This is what Riley says, anyway, and he
ought to know
Here are some don'ts for muleteers. Don't
break the mule in too young; he ought to
be at least six years old before he is used
Tor heaVy work Don't use thin, wiry bit,
else it will split his mouth Don't rein a
mule up; he will do more work and live ION O.
er II he is allowed, to carry his head in nat
ural position. Don't drive a mule on trot
ne is built for putting, not speed let him
walk. Don't hurt mules ears; they are very
sensitive. Don't cut the hair on a mules
heels. Don't wash the mud off a mu1a,s 1oos.
let 1t dry and rub it off with straw. DON'T use
ohnders; their only use is to prevent him
from seeing the drivers whip. Don't stable
the mule at night SO that he cannot lie
down. Don't fail to curry and rub down
me Inc mule every morning. Don't overload;
this causes baking
All the mule gets out of it anyhow is his
poard ana lodging. And where can Won find
petter servant on those terms?
me mule is the most valuable beast of bur
den IN the world. He is entitled to our most
merciful treatment ~ 4A100'
ana IL mule acts up, don't use cluh on
MIN; use it on the driver. 800 vi

COLLEGE FAILURES
By H. Addington Bruce

| BOUT this time of year many parents
| ~ are experiencing pangs of disappoint-
n ment because of the failure of their
sons to pass college examinations.
The not unnatural tendency is to put the
entire blame the sons and accuse them
| of laziness or stupidity. This is seldom
quite just.
If boy really is lazy, his laziness often
is due to conditions of bodily health, which
his parents long since should have corrected
Or his laziness may be merely bad habit
acquired by imitation of the parents them
selves.
| People too frequently fail to appreciate
that if they do not show their children an
example of industrious activity the children
are hardly likely to be Tarvels of industry.
Ease-loving, pleasure-seeking parents are
pretty sure to have ease-loving, pleasure
seeking children.
| Nor if a boy is industrious enough yet
fails to pass his examinations, is it safe to
| jump to the conclusion that he must "~De
stupid?
Nervousness may account for his ''flunk-
ing" There are plenty of bright boys, who,
so to speak, go all to pieces neryously when
| they enter an examination room.
| The remedy, of course, is to train such
boys in nerve control. For which purpose
| it may be necessary to call in the services
of a nerve specialist.
Or again. a boy may fail in college ex-
aminations not because he is essentially
| dullard, but because his type OF mind is such
that the purely intellectual work of college
does not appeal to him.
| He may be, for example, like the son OF
friend of mine, who was much chagrined by
reason of his boys repeated failures in class
work and examinations.
At nv suggestion he finally sent the boy
to nerve specialist. The latter, testing MIN
nsychologicallv found that he was distinctly
manual-minded rather than intellectual.
| 'fSend this lad to technical school or
let him start work in a factory" was the
advice he gave. "He is built for the han
ding not of books but of tools, and should
do we'll in any mechanical pursuit"
A prediction, I may add, amply borne out
by future events. Studying and working
with machinery, the boy proved to be as
bright as he had formerly seemed dull.
So that parents who have college failures
on their hands should not be hasty and Law
ish in their reproaches Rather they should
recognize that their boys present problem
calling for conscientious efforts at solution.
