BROUGHT BACK SAD MEMORY
Little Wonder That Comedian Could
Not Look on Buns With Any
Degree of Affection.

81 never eat buns" the comedian
rible experience I had once"
The listeners drew near, thrilled by
the tenseness of his tones.
81 was on ship in midocean," went
on the comedian dramatically. "Her
cargo was self-raising flour and cur
rants, and a touring theatrical party.
Suddenly, in the dead of night, we ran
into an iceberg.
"There were no boats, so things look
ed very desperate for u.s. The huge
waves dashed over the sides and down
the hatchways.
"Then we heard a curious noise. The
water had got to the self-raisng flour
and presently it began, to ooZe up in
large bloss, like buns, with the cur
rants mixed up in it.
GAS the great Jumps of dough fioated
on the water the heat of the sun baked
them hard. | got on top Of one OF the
biggest and floated away from the
sinking ship.
But, alas! The ocean Whereabouts
was full Of sharks and they seemed to
like my bun. Anyway. they nibbled
and nibbled at it, and daily it grew
less, until | had hardly room to hang
on. / got washed ashore just when
there were only two bites Of bun left
for them.
Ever since then" he ended, with
sigh, 81 haven't been able to look at
bun without shvering."

Army Has New eyes"

Army engineers are said to have de
veloped new type of searchlight,
mounted on a rubher-tired trailer that
can be pulled great distances by mo-
tortruck which promises TO he great
aid in anti-aircraft operations. 1t is
a G0-inch light Of the "dishnan"
type, yet weighs but 700 pounds as
against the old light of this size, which
weighed G,000 pounds.
The cost of the new light also has
been reduced. being about a quarter
Of the cost of the first light, which
had a glass mirrors that was not only
very heavy but also difficult TO manu-
facturc. The new light has a mirror
of thin metal with a backing of re-
enforced concrete. This construction
is said to promise excellent results.
