will do it and throw the dog off, and break up the performance, unless you restrain him with q few firm re- marks Thus you have to watch the monkey all the time to keep him from starting out on some fool idea of his own. At the present time, he gets angry when you prevent him rom executing his inspiration, and he waits for an opportunity to take a furtive bite at your hand. He keeps angry until new idea occurs to hin; and then when you restrain him again, he gets angrier than ever.

 power of intellect and originality of q eas disturb the normal machinery or society. In the body polite of train ed animals in the stage, the volatile monkey stands for that fab'.lous and disturbing fifure, the man O. genius.
 That monkey there," the trainer pointed to a little Simian sitting 0n bench and grinning, thinks he knows more about making an act good than I do. In every performance he tries to put in something more, and we are always quarre.ing about it. The relation between him and me is that of the jealous author and the smart actor who wants to improve the authors play. F. Wetmore in the New York World.

HONIE-DEMONSTRATION AGENTS IMPROVE THEIR FAIR EXHIBITS

There has been consistent effort this year by extension workers of the United States Department of Agricul- ture and the State agricultural col leges to improve the type of education- al exhibits at the State and county fairs At the Indiana State Fair held during the first week of September, we'll selected interior furnishings were featured in one of the hOme-demon- stration booths, nutrition work in an. other and the evolution of hat" in third.
 In the first built-in fireplace was shown with few suitable mantel or naments instead of the frequently seen clutter of meaningless objects. One good picture was hung on wall covered with appropriate wallpaper. Considerable attention was given to well-selected hangings and floor cover ings. The treatmen of ordinary board floors with stains and yarnish was emphasized. In the nutrition booth a model of the milk trair which travels father than the otter food trains, was loaned by the United States Dairy Division, and the proper selection and preparation of eiildren's meals were featured.

 When laws were enacted several years ago providing for inspection of
 drugs. produce and foods generally especially meatS-there was consider able resentment for while among dealers but that is seldom encounter

 customers that the thing he sells Is pure, clean and out of a sanitary plant.

MONKEYS HARD TO TRAIN

The minds and moods of animals as seen by the trainer. give endless curiosities. With the monkey we come upon q paradox. The monkey is vast lv intelligent Therefore the monkey makes d difficult performer.
 A parrott, pigeon, dog and monkey act was moving at Starlight Park. Two men and Il woman-the Three Genncts-capered in clowns cos tunes, while parrots climbed ladders and pulled wagons about. pigeons winged through practiced evoiutions dogs performed their tricks and mon- keys rode bicycles walked tight ropes and played other comedy. The train CT, a white faced buffoon kept scold ing the monkeys. When the act was done I asked him about the peculari- ties of the Simian character in rela- tion to animal training.
 "The monkey" he began, has all the qualities needed for stage per formance, but he has too much of high and subtle intellig gence.
 I have trained many sorts of ami malls" he continued, and lines of re- fiection came into his round painted face, "and my experience has been that the criterion of animal training behavior is the same as the ancient criterion of the behavior of men. Does he like to work? Or is he lazy? If the animal likes to work he is excel. he will never make good performer. Dogs illustrate the point. Some dogs train splendidly, and some not at all. The difference between the two sorts is one of energy. The best dog for training is a dog catcher's dog. He is accustomed to hard, active life. He iS ful of energy. He expects labor. and wants il. and he is anxious to do his tricks. The arstocratic dog is Impossible He is like his master, the rich man. who has never had to work, He is lazy and hates to move his bones A couple of high jumps are as distasteful to him as days labor carving the hod would be to his mas. ter. He is bred to lazineSs and you can't make him work.
 In the same. way. lions are easier to train than eats. Lions are yigor- ouS, and they are thankful if you tell them to leap about. Cats are so indo- lent that you can scarcely make them do anything more than curl up on d couch X lazy animal is curse upon the trainer.
 Now. the monkey is one of the most energetic of animals. He hasn't sluggardly music in him.
 And he learns with the greatest ease. II takes eight or ten months to train good dog. You can train monkey in SIX. X monkey is as bright at mastering tricks as pony is stupid
 This was high praise and il would seem to represent the monkey as the best theatrical performer of the ami mal kingdom. We come, however, upon the curse of high intellect The stocky little down lamented.
 "The monkey has so much brains that he gets ideas of his own. In a performance he sits waiting for his cue, and as he watches the other ami. mals and meditates, he thinks of something fine: He will jump on the dogs back and cut few capers. He

 "On the contrary, had a great deal of Christmas shopping to do." Miss Petunia averred, but I have man aged rather differently this Christ mas from other Christmases am trying to infuse a new spirit into what l give to people to whom Christ mas ordinarily means-nothing."
 You mean charity cases and things like that which you see in q great city and which become commonplace when you've lived in city all your life?" suggested Annabelle.
 Not at all," was the reply. T grew up in little south Alabama town a little country village I went off to boarding school and there was a girl from my town who was my room mate that I dearly loved The years have passed and passed again and again since I've been back to that lit tie country town. where she and I grew up. Everything has changed. The girls who were rich are now poor, some of them, and those that were poor as the proverbiaI church mouse are now rich. The other girl that l loved in that town was very rich, but the man she married has been unfortunate, and today she is living far out, even from the little countrys village. The see-saw of life has been busy putting some of us up, but most of us down, and so I began to go over ChristmAs things and l said to myself: Why not play fairy god-mother &o some of my old friends? And that's what I've done this Christmas.
 The first thing l did was to write to the girl who lives in the country and find out just how she was spend ing her time. I received a letter from her-a very brave fine letter=in which she deplored the fact that her two young daughters and two sons lived so far out in the country that they had no advantages, but in spite of that, she had tried to keen on growing and keep them growing. She said that they practically lived in their books and that such char acters as David Copperfield and Jana Eyre were to them living, breathing realities. She didn't complain. Oh. no; but beneath it all l KNEw-be- cause l had known and loved that girl in the days gone by"
 And what did you send her for Christmas?" asked Annabelle. greatly interested.
