HOWARD CHASE COMES OFF
BOTH BICYCLE AND PAROLE

A bicycle thief is the hardest Of
Tender to catch and cases against
them are very hard to prove some
times because the bicycles are so
often altered and camoufiaged.
Goodhue Wetherly, owner of a
bicycle, left his mount in front of
the National Museum He STAYED
Inside several hours.
When he came e-out the bicycle was
gone without a trace. Then he
went on a hunt for il.
When he got to Seventh street
and Massachusetts avenue north
west he saw Howard Chase riding
II around. Goodhue told his troubles
70 Bicycle Policeman Koontz, who
rode after Chase and caught him.
Chase admitted having served two
years and three months in the Ma
NQnal Training School. having been
sent there by the Juvenile Court for
misbehavior.
He was out on parole when he
stole Goodhue's bicycle. He tried
to tell Judge Mcmahon that a
strange woman gave 1t to him.
The court came to the conclusion
that the training school hadn't done
much toward reforming the boy and
sent him to Jail for a month.

ONE-REEL YARNS
Hippo Gets "Photographed.-


1t was a hot afternoon. The
sun glared down from the cloud
less sky. Everyone was melting.
Dean sat on her front porch,
melting with the rest of them.
oh. such a day" she sighed,
as her dainty handkerchief
mopped her brow. II wish IL
would get cool-or that l had
something to do so 1 could for
get l am so no"
oh, Dean" 1t was the musi-
ical voice of Katherine, Deans
chum. Dean looked up. kath-
crime dashed through the front
gate. up the steps of the porch
and perched in the shade beside
her friend.
Katherine's Request.
Dean. dear" she began. you
know the circus that came to
town this morning? Well, it's
leaving tonight and Jim just told
me they are loading some of the
animals on the train right now.
And Dean, / do so want to get
a picture Of that blood-sweating
hippopotamus to send to my lit
tie cousin in the country. But I
haven't n camera. Will you bring
yours, and snap the picture?"
Anything-just so it was some
thing to do. Dean jumped up
from her cushions. She ran (de-
spite the heaD into the house
and a few minutes later was
again on the porch with her
camera in her hand.
AUST One More Picture"
I've got room for just one
more picture on this film" she
announced. "and then ! can have
the whole roll developed at the
drug store. Let's GO"
The animal trainers were just
making ready to load the great
hippo onto the train when the
two girls arrived breathless and
hot at the circus grounds which
were not far from Deans home.
Very kind men they were, and
at the girls request. paused in
their work to allow Dean to snap
the photo. The sun was shining
just right and Dean had no trou-
bic in catching the ferocious ami
NAL in a most striking pose.
The Hippo Leaves Town.
"We1l never get another pic
ture as good as this in a hundred
years" said Katherine as she
picture. Of course that was
stretching II a bit, for usually a
circus visited the girls town
once a year. But it was a good
picture.
After the girls had finished the
men continued their loading.

Dad TeHsHou
Made of Staues

Dad, did you ever make a
hammock from barrel staves?' 1t
was a hot evening. and the fam
lily were seated on the front
porch trying to fan up some cool
breezes. Ralph had spoken.
Made four or FIVE OF them in
my younger days, son-why, are
you thinking OF making one?"
II am, but I can't figure out
how to GO about it,"
simplest thing in the world.
First. you must have a good sized
barrel. Take it apart carefully.
Don't crack any of the slaves.
Then get out your brace and
bit and bore a one-inch hole in
each end - all the slaves.
Get four pieces of rope about
the size of clothes line. Pro-
ceed to fasten the slaves to-
gether
Two ropes are woven through
the holes on each side. One rope
goes up through the first hole.
down the second, up through the
third and down the fourth. The
other goes down the first. up the
second, down the third. and so
on, always travelling in the op-
posite~ direction" As he talked
Raiph's father sketched with his
pencil on the corner of the cover
of the magazine he had been
reading. The drawing was SINH
lar to that which illustrates this
article
You thread the ropes through
the other side in the same man
ner." he continued.
Two holes must be bored in
each end of the two end slaves.
This is done so that the ropes will
cause the slaves to lie nat. Knot
the two sets of ropes, and then
bring them together about three
feet from the last stave. Attach
them to the trees or the posts, or
whatever objects you are going
to hang the hammock to-and
there you are"
