 When June told us this we began to wonder. Was she trying to amuse Us and get our minds off a hard-boil- ed interview? Anyway. We hunched our shoulders, got ready for an ~ahem" which would not come, and then wilt ed by her capricious smile, said this or something very similar:
 ''Yes, June-er, Miss Caprice, but you don't mean to tell me that YOU were frightened, that is a little bit afraid-about serial queening?"
 'FNo.' said she, 'I was not a little bit afraid I was scared to death. You see.

Us about ''The Sky Ranger" which seemed to us to be one of the most fantastic and original ideas we have ever, heard of. It gives an insight to
 what we can expect in the future concerning aerial travel and adven- ture, and the remarkable possibilities
 of inventions yet to come. Sounds as though the scenario might have
 been written by Jules Verne, but it wasn't! He's dead! We may even be given a glimpse into what the scenery of Mars ought to look like, accordine to June And that is, in I.self. something to look forward to!
 But what we can't figure out is.

INDOOR MAGIC

The performer seats himself In
a chair, the back of which has
bars running either horizontally
or vertically
He places his hands in back OF
the chair. They are tied together
at the wrists with 4 stout cord.
A ring is borrowed from one OF
the audience and placed between
the performers lips. Then a screen
is stood before him so that he is
out of sight of the watchers.
An assistant asks the owner OF
the ring to name which of the per-
formers fingers she wishes the
ring to appear upon. The assist
ant repeats the name of the finger
for the performers benefit.
Two or three minutes elapse.
The screen Is removed. The ring
is found upon the finger named,
and the performers hands have
not been united, nor has the rope
been tempered with.
When the screen is placed in
front Of the performer he leans
forward as far as possible and
drops the ring from his lips to
his lap. Then spreading his knees
slowly apart, he carefully allows
the ring to drop to the seat Of
the chair. BY a series of backward
pushes of his body he slides the
ring to the rear of the seat, where
by squirming his hands, he can
reach it with his fingers. 1t is
then a simple matter to slide the
ring onto the finger named.
Ed. Note-Perhaps II you prac-
tiee these tricks you will be wiz
ard like Richards some day. Any
way, they are fun to do. Can you
work them?

az liked the great cathedral
Notre Dame especially and II was
real close to our hotel where we
stayed in Paris. 1t is magnificent.
I like the front view of It best,
said Mary Lane Charles to the
Junior editor last week. Miss
Charles IL q Junior who has just
returned to her Home In this city
after sixteen months spent In at
tending school and visiting In diff
ferent parts of France. For the
pleasure of Junier readers. Mary
Lane has told some Of the things
she saw and did and liked espe-
cially during her stay IN France.
THE gardens, called the Tuil-
leries, IN trent Of the Louvre, are
very beautiful" Mary Lane said.
They are large and there are
many trees and statues, and menu-
ments. and flowers. and fountains
playing all the time. They are In
the French styls, regular aAd arti-
ficial but exceedingly beautiful.
In these fountains and basins the
French children sail their boats,
real bright boats with pretty white
sails on them, red boats and green
boats and blue boats. The chill
dren fly kites and roll hoops, toe,
In these lovely garden parks" The
Louvre itself, the great art Musi-
una, held great attraction for Mary
Lane while she was there. It Is an
old palace built of stone where the
kings of France used to live. Now
it Is used for the home Of treasures
of art, painting and sculpturing.
The famous Winged Victory OF
Samclhrace, the monument built
hundreds of years ago like the
figurehead Of ship, the Venus de
Milo and tile painting Mona Lisa,
by Leonardo da Vinci are three OF
the NEST famous art treasures in
the Louvre. OF course this means
the originals of these works and
not copies.
Near the Louvre is the church
of st. Germaine, LAuxerroise, in
the tower OF which was rung the
bell that proclaimed the. massacre
of st. Bartholomew in the reign of
Marie de Medici. At the other end
from the Louvre is the Place de la
Concord where the guillotine
stood during the reign Of terror.
Leading away from this Is the
Champs Elysees, the largest and
most beautiful boulevard in Paris
and here, the children do not roll
hoops and run around as they do
in the parks, but walk very Sc.

On the same day ON which they
visited the Luxembourg gardens,
they went to see the place where
the famous GObelinz tapestries are
made. They saw the large frames
on which the threads of the warp
were stretched, saw a man marking
the pattern on these threads, and
another man arranging the bob
bins. There are many of these
little bobbins which the weaver
moves in and out of the warp
threads, putting in the woof-all
of them filled with Colored threads
such fine thread and such small
bobbins that it seemed wonderful
indeed that they did not get all
