HAD TO TIE THE YOUNGSTERS
Were Not to BE Trusted When Grand
mother Dipped the Candles on
the Old Farm.

There was another event that took
place once a year in the big kitchen,
so much more exciting than spinning
that instead of being allowed 10 sit at
liberty, with directions and cautions.
we had TO be tied to the table legs
with a clothes line or we would have
been covered with grease. 1t was a
mysterious proceeding. which began
with my grandmother spreading a
space on the floor with Albany Jour
nails, and Ontario County Repositories
and Waterbury Americans. Then she
stirred the contents of a brass kettle
that hung on the crane, and took up
the Waterbury Americans. cherished
souvenirs of her native town. and re-
placed them with ordinary Reposito-
ries. Next she brought four kitchen
chairs and set them on the four cor
ners OF the recfangle of newspapers
and connected them with two poles.
Then she stirred the brass kettle again
and looked az the clock. Then she
proceeded 10 bring in large number
of rods. each of which was Topped with
six twisted wicks. and laid the ends
of the rods neatly on the poles. II
was then that we were tied up with
a little free rope allowed for limited
range, before the brass, kettle was
emptied into the copper boiler.
And now the fun began. when my
grandmother dipped the first two rods
of wicks into the boiler of melted tai
low, and we danced as much as the
table legs would permit. 1t was two
rods at time and then two more, over
and over again until the full-grown
candles hung In rows, slender at the
top and enlarging 10 thick, pointed
end at the bottom. 1t took some of
the Joy out OF our young lives when
the tin molds came and put an end TO
candle-dipping.-W. Henry shelton in

Jokes in Architecture.

The builders of the old churches In
England were not SO serious but that
they now and then perpetrated joke,
even in stone. On more than one of
their creations they carved in relief a
scene representing monk preaching
solemnly to flock Of geese. The same
humorous spirit is sometimes to be
detected in the domestic architecture
of early times. Here is an instance:
Just upon the boundaries of Bed.
fordsbire and Hertfordshire formerly
stood rambling old farmhouse. The
living room was long and low, and
on the center beam that went across
the ceiling was inscribed this legend !:
''If you are cold go 20 Hertfordshire."
This seemingly inhospitable invita-
ton was. explained by the fact that
one-half of the room was in one county
and one-half in the other. The fire.
place was in Hertfordshire.

Almost all forms of recreation

RUSSIA STILL IN THE DARK

1t is difficult to reconcile some
OF the reports OF actual economic
conditions existing in Russia
which are presented by news
paper correspondents who have
finally succeeded in penetrating
that country. These reports
present amazing anomalies.
Take. for instance, one from
Samara. province which before
the war produced a large surplus
of foodstuffs. After narrowing
description of the ravages OF
famine and plague which are
carrying off men. women and
children by the hundreds daily, a
correspondent tells us that almost
within sight of the camps of the
starving victims there are res
taurants where one can get a
square meal il one has the price.
1t is also possible To hire con-
Vcyance to go from hotel or
boarding house TO railroad sta
ton or boat landing. and we are
told that electric light plants are
operating, of course not as usual.
but they are operating. They are
consuming fuel, which is one of
the scarcest commodities in the
country. We hear of these things.
and then recall our own hcatlcss
and lightless days during the war.
the economies practiced and the
makeshifts we rcsortcd to during
the period of strain. And the sat
isfactory results achieved were
under form of government Moth
ing like the Soviet regime.
What is equally difficult to un-
derstand is the prevalence of So
cial conditions in Russia which
have been ascribed exclusively to
the so-called capitalistic system.
The bolshevist principles, we
were told, would equalize eco
nomic conditions. There would
be neither rich nor poor. every
thing would be equalized, prince
and peasant would share alike
the possession of money would
not count. And yet. according to
the reports of American investi-
gators now on the spot. restau-
rants flourish where square
meal can be obtained. and prac-
ticalIy in sight of starving and
dying multitudes. Russia under
the soviet is indeed a great. big

Elk Sheds Antlers Yearly.

Once a year elks shed their horns.
AS soon as the old ones are gone
new ones start. This process is re-
peated every year. the only difference
being that an upper prong appears
each time. Thus an eik's age can be
told by the prongs in one of his ant
lers.
The shedding is apparently a pain

OFF a cIot of blood forms at its root.
In the first six months of its growth
there is a soft skin over the antlers !:
this is known IS the velvet. As long
as the velvet is there the antlers re-
main somewhat soft and sensitive.
but when the velvet peels off the
antlers become hard and dry up, and
they lose all feeling.

A NATTER or TIME

Rejecting on the fastnesS with
which time flies, and particularly
on the sunset slope of life, there
has been plenty of comfort'in the
last few years in the reports OF
new marks in longevity. Cen
tenarians have become compare
tively common and men of 10 are
spoken of as young. Now comes
an officer of the American Insur-
ance Union with the statement
that the span of human lie has
been heightened four years i'll the
last quarter century. and that
within another generation the al
lotted threeScore years and ten
will be thing of the past" And
this in spite OF the extra hazards
which have come with twentieth
century progress.
There need be no surprise i'll it.
The fastness principally is in ma
chinery: instead of suffering from
the wear and tear of it. humanity,
lolIing in the parlor cars or float
ing palaces setting new speed
marks. tends rather TO Incidence.
Advances in the science of
guarding health now effect res
cues where formerly death was
regarded as certain. At no time
did manhood ever show greater
hardness than in the World War.
An increase in longevity is to be
expected naturally.
Besides. the people of the flu
ture may look back upon our age
as slow just as we do upon the
period of only half a century
back. a~...ss--~..-~ 1AAs4

MIGRATORY SEASON

some interesting features of their mi

The month OF October, ii is said,

However. 1t is not infrequently the
Ease that birds that migrate in large
numbers about the middle or the last
of October have either not arrived or
have passed south earlier on the cor
responding date of previous years.

a record of all birds observed in
Great Britain and the British coasts
that are not indigenous to the Brit
sh Isles, but have flown thither from

Views OF Ornithologists

0rnithologists say that birds that
have never before been over the aer-
ial road may get separated from the
flock. become bewildered and fly
about quite at loss until they reach
land. Where that may be is entirely
4 matter of chance.
Now and then birds that are not
strictly migratory gather in enormous
Hocks and sweep over several hundred
miles of country. The cause of this
action is a mystery 10 the students of
bird life. Many years ago. which is
a matter of historical record. Turkey
and Bulgaria were invaded by enor-
nous fiocks OF the bird known as the
rose-colored pastor. These birds prov
ed very destructive TO the vineyards
and growing crops and the peasants
had to turn out in force and kill
them. 1t is said a flock of these pas
tors would strip tree of its fruit
in a few minutes.
So little is known of the cause of
such migrstions that the bird socie-
ties everywhere are constantly on the
alert to note any unusual happening
OF this sort.

Reveals Strange Happenings

This list, it is said. reveals many
strange happenings Birds native TO
eastern Siberia and China. north
Africa and the arctic regions. have
been observed in Great Britain. but,
Of course, this is quite rare. There
are, however, number of recorded
instances of American birds crossing
he Atlantic and being seen and shot
in England. as in the case of Ca
madam owl that lighted in an ex
hausted condition on board a vessel
off the coast of Cornwall in 1880, and
was so fatigued in its long flight across
the Atlantic that it offered not the
slightest resistance when handled by
the sailors.
The records show that Lord Cav
dord shot a Carolina cuckoo in Wales
n 1883. In 1872 three specimens of
Cassius snowgoose, a native of Lab
rador. were seen on the west coast
Of Ireland.
The American Audubon societies
lave a record OF five individuals of
his species shot in Chesapeake bay
N 1891. The London Geological So
ciety maintains an accidental visi-
ors' list of fishes. as well as birds,
md the same thing is done at the
ish commission laboratory at Woods
