TO Sleep Well, Join
Whales on the Ocean

(By international News Service)
Los Angeles.-To sleep well, sleep
on the ocean.
The whales do, and sleep we'll
after sunrise sometimes.
Captain T.. J. Holland, Of the Pa
cific mail liner Cuba, thinks q sea-
traffic officer should be placed on
duty off Point Arguello. He hates
to have to bump whales from the
midst of their fairyland of dreams
with his ship in order to clear a
passage from San Francisco to Los
Angeles
Captain Holland, on visit to Los
Angeles harbor, told story Of how
he rang the breakfast bell for seven
husky whales il the Pacific ocean.
They were big fellows, ranging
from sixty to ninety feet in length.
The seven whales were "snoozing"
on top of the water as
the Cuba bore down upon them. The
captain said he didn't hear them
snoring but he knew they were
because when whales sleep
they ride high in the water.
Evidently, however, one whale was
afflicted with insomnia, for as the
vessel drew near he shook himself
into action and proceeded to pour
water on the others.
Aroused from their slumbers I'M
der the rays of the early morning
sun, the seven whales scampered
away, frothing the water with their
rushes and seeming to be Protest

had so suddenly broken their Beau
