GIVE MEANING TO WHISTLE
Canary Island Natives Said to Hold
Conversations With Each Other
by Musical Sounds.

Australia, It Is said, can boast Of
whistling spiders, whlstling snakes
and whistling moths. But has any
body ever heard of "whistling" lam
guage?
1t is recorded that In the Canary
islands the natives are expert whis-
tiers and hold conversations with each
other through this medium. Travel
ers who have been to these islands
tell how they have learned the strange
language. and also of how long and
complicated conversations have been
held by whistling with a neighbor q
mile away.

Thanked for Crankinu.

Some time ago I went with friend

BraziI's Anniversary.

The recent celebration of the ami
versary Of Brazilian independence
brings to mind several interesting
facts concerning this growing nation.
Brazil, with the exception of Cuba, is
the youngest of the Latin-American
republics. Unlike Cuba. however.
Brazil enjoyed independence long be-
fore the change of government came.
Again, most unlike it's sister republics
of Spanish America, Brazil effected the
radical change without bloodshed.
Dom Pedro was WISE as well as
lovable, monarch; when he saw that
the majority opinion favored a repub-
lican form of administration. he gra-
ciously abdicated and retired from
public life. If only certain European
monarchs had possessed similar fore
sight and common sense but a few
years ago!

TIME TO BUILD

There are many reasons for
the urging more building and do
ing more building at this time
and particularly in the western
half of the United States.
Trade from west coast mills
into eastern competitive terri
tory has been temporarily demor-
allied until readjustment is ac-
complished under new freight
rates.
A great deal of publicity has
been given the fact that Henry
Ford has announced about a 20
per cent reduction in his auto
mobiles and other automobile
manufacturers have made similar
cuts.
Lumbermen have said nothing
but without reducing wages they
have reduced the price of lumber
about 40 per cent below the
prices prevailing last March.
These figures can be proven by
any manufacturers books.
The demand for houses is in
creasing daily. The government
says the country is short 1000,
600 homes. Labor is more ef-
ficient and more plentiful than it
has been for three years. Lum-
ber and mill work amounts to 81
per cent of the cost of a frame
dwelling.
Western states are particularly
interested in keeping the saw
mills running as it means en-
ployment of hundreds of thou
sands of persons.
While shipments to the East
are slack, thus causing accumu-
lation of lumber at western mills
with resulting lower price, every
person figuring on building should
take advantage of the situation
as a good business proposition.
Spring will see a demand for
building materials such as this
nation has never witnessed. In
mild western states foresight
should prompt building this win.

THE RAILROADS

The sporadic demand for gov
ernment ownership of railways,
combined with a constant crusade
of legislation kept the railroad
question fresh in the minds of
the people before the war.
During the war the govern
ment took control. The regime
was not popular Nothing has
transpired in long time that
has so discredited the project of
government ownership as the
things that happened under gov
ernment control.
What the people want is hon
est and efficient private opera
ton. If they get it by AN awak-
ening of conscience on the part
of railroad executives and man.
agement, so much the better.
President Fairfax Harrison. of
the Southern Railroad, says: 1T
now remains for private man
agement to resume the practice
of competitive efficiency and self
reliant initiative which distin-
guished the American railroads
during so many years and to
justify the preference of the
American people for that form
of administration by making pos
sible not only the success of in
dividual companies and the pros
perity of their loyal employees,
but a constant and progressive
reduction of rates accompanied
by an enlargement of service to
the public such as may be traced
through the old fashioned rail-
road statistics. No one can ex-
pect this to be accomplished over
night, considering the practical
conditions, but start can be
made at once"
