ONE FLAW IN BRIGHT IDEA
JanItor Called On as "Dinner substl-

lnconvenIence Involved.

A young Indianapolis physician had
been invited by school teacher to
accompany her to a dinner party at
which he was an absolute stranger.
He accepted the invitation, but at the
last minute had to break 1t. But you
can take some other man and pass
him OF for me-" he offered, generous
ly. mo one there knows me. so It'll
go all right"
The teacher hesitated. "But they
know most of the men l KNOW" she
said. And then a sudden smile came
over her face. II might take our
school janitor. He's new In the city.
but you could give him some of your
clothes and 1t would probably pass"
But how does he talk?" asked the
doctor, little bit doubtful of the
scheme now.
"Oh, his talking is all right" as
sured the teacher. and smiled wider
than ever again. There's only one
thing I'm not sure about He chews

American Cob. a. condoII.r..

American gobs are learning how to
become gondoliers. and an American
school has for the first time included
gondoliering as a regular course. In
Venice the Knights Of Columbus op-
crate a social service club on the
banks Of the Grand canal, and In con-
nection with the club the Knights of
Columbus maintain well-eQuipped
school, run on the lines Of the
Knights Of Columbus free night
schools In America. French. Italian,
Turkish and other languages are
taught In the school to the men of the
American Mediterranean naval unit,
as well as navigation and other tech
nical courses.
Now gond0liering has been added,
as the American sailors relish dsiving
themselves and their Venetian friends
around the gem Of the Adriatic In gon-
dolas. Some Of the sailors are becom-
Ing expert In handling the picturesque
craft. Knights Of Columbus Commits

GERMANY LOST TOY MARKET
United States and Japan Now supply
canada With Pisythinos She
Does Not Procuese.

The United States Is now hrst in
supplying those toys needed to supple
ment the output Of Canadian factories.
The additional quantity required by
Canada to supply Its own domestic
trade amounted In the last year to ST.
100000 worth. Before the war Ger
many was the chief source Of supply.
but the United States now leads and
Japan has likewise made a notable ad-
vance In Its toy shipments to that
market. In 1913 American exports of
toys to Canada amounted to $273, 13S
and In the year ended March 81, 1920.
the total was $1,136,372. Japan's trade
grew from $1S,73S to $277,946 in the
small increase in toys sent from the
United Kingdom.
The toy and doll industry Of Can
ada. according to Vice Consul Horace
NJ. Sanford at Ottawa, has made con-
siderable advance compared with pre-
war time. but imports were needed 10
meet the domestic demand. At the
present time some thirty-five Canadian
toy factories are listed, although the
census returns Of 1918 reported only
fifteen. The kinds Of toys made there
include animals, autos. balls, billiard
games. boats, building blocks. car
nages crokinole boards, croQuet sets.
dishes. dolls furniture. games, garden
sets. lawn swings. pool tables. tricycles
and wheelbarrows, which are made Of
celluloid. eramel. Iron. steel. tin, rub
Der and wood.
Last year Canada exported $1S9. .O52
worth Of dolls and toys, the United
States taking $5.885 worth and the
United Kingdom $120,822.

Goat Disclosed Rich Mine.

A mountain goat recently was re-
spOnsible for the discovery of what is
believed to besone of the most valu-
able mines in British Columbia. which
had been hunted by prospectors for
years, after rich float ore had been
found. A. Finn was hunting mountain
goats high above timber line. He had
trailed an animal for miles when it
came out on a glacier and stood in
full view against the sky on pin
nacle of Ice. Firms rifle cracked and
the goat fell dead down steep preci-
pice and rolled several hundred feet.
Its body fetched up near the foot Of
the glacier and when Finn reached It
he found 1t had dislodged a massive
rock beneath which the long-searched-
for vein lay exposed.

The school principal had been busy
all day selecting children from the
various classes, to do some special
work. She was very tired and also
very much pre-occupied when the jani-
tor entered her Office. In response to
her mechanical nod he began: Miss
M. that crossing out there is dan
gerous. If they don't send us traffic
officer some of the children in this
school are going to get killed."
She had not really heard his speech,
for he was always complaining. so she
made no answer. and then he repeat
ed his assertion with some emphasis,
ending: "They are going to get killed
out there-some of our children"
She had caught the last phrase. and
mechanically, after her day If classi-
flying, said: "Then had- better pick
out the ones prefer for that"
And the janitor fled.
