ADVENTURES OF
THE TWINS
BY OLIVE ROBER BARTON

Now my dears, I haven't the least
doubt in the world that all this time
you've been thinking that Zippy Zebra
and Mr.. Ostrich and his wife. Zippy's
good friends, (although they quarreled
now and then as good friends do) were
all alone cut there in the Land That
Was Farthest-Away- Of-AlL I sup
pose it never occurred to you. that the
two great big things that looked so
much like gray rocks right near where
Zippy was grazing, might have been
shoes with a pair of feet inside them
that belonged to a funny little fairy
with a curlicue top-knot and a very
scarce nose
And I'm certain as Sunday that you
never guessed that the four green
things sticking out from beneath the
bobab- bush were anything different
than a very good salad dinner for
Zippy himself.
But indeed you are wrong! These.
also, Were magic shoes and they. too,
had feet in them-lovely pink ones,
which kept going up into legs. two of
which belonged to a lovely person with
golden curls and blue eyes called
Nancy. and the other two of which
belonged to a fine young chap called
Nick.
And certain as Monday, they had
heard every single word Zippy Zebra
and Mr.. and Mrs. Ostrich had said.
Once. when Mrs. Ostrich raised her
head and said. Il believe we are hav-
ing an earthquake" it was only Flip
pety-Flap holding his plump sides and
shaking and laughing fit to kill.
Nancy and Nick laughed. too. because
having the Language Charm and Mag
ical Mushroom had given them. they
could understand ostrich-talk and ze-
bra-language as easily as you could
understand American.
But all at once Flippety Flap sob
cred. Say" he whispered, DO you
s'pose by all his talking OF shoes n
boots n things. that he means us?''

IS YOUR CHILD A PRODIGY?

There may be parents in Pensacola
who read with envy the stories about
child prodigies of whom an unusual
crop has appeared lately.
And they may wonder with resent
ment at the ways of nature that make
of their boys just ordinary youngsters,
while endowing a boy in New York,
with such a mind that at IL years
he cuts his teeth on big words like
psychology" which he spells and uses
familiarity.
This child has been interviewed
and is quoted as saying:
Children are all very well, but they
do not understand me. They see
am interested in teaching them things,
and they want to do nothing but play.
like to play, but it's a different sort
of playing. 1t could be called playing
with purpose. The kids around here
play for no reason at all"
Poor little prodigy! Nature has
given him a grown-up brain and rob-
! bed of him OF his childhood. He
likes to play with purpose" Other
children play because their joyous be-
ing tie Is them to- There's no pur-
pose in their play, but the joy of it.
Progidies must be lonely children, be-
cause they are not understood by the
children of their size, and are too
small to be companions of chill
dren of their mental age.
Give us the average. regular boy,
who plays hard, just for the fun of it (;
and works hard when he has to; and
! makes a good showing in school,
though not shining; and can put up
n good thOllOh ha
for one.
The men who count for something
were regular boys.

Profession and Reproduction of
Our Forests.

SuF TOFeSIS.
The address of Col Joseph Hyde
Pratt, chairman of the executive com
mittee of the southern forestry con-
gress delivered at the session of the
congress held recently in Tallahassee
on the subject CONSERVATION of the
Peoples Resources With Special Ref
erence to the Firests," is presented in
full in The Times today.
While not an alarmist nor a sensa
tionalist, the speaker gave the people
OF Florida statements and suggestions
which should have their very earnest
consideration. He warns that the end
OF our timber supply is virtually in
sight. That what may appear to the
casual observer travelling over the
state to be vast forests of fine timber
will, in many cases, on close examnia-
ton be found to contain very little
timber win, in many cases, on close
examination be found to contain very
little timber Of commercial size and
practically no young growth of the
better species.
Colonel Pratt urges insistently that
laws be passed and enforced for the
prevention OF forest fires, and that
neighborhood organizations be form
ed to fight fires. or If found to be
beyond their control to report them to
the proper authorities.
Il do not want you to get the idea
that the depicting of timebr in The
United States or in Florida is the re-
suit primarily Of the utilization OF our
forest products, for 1t is not, but it is
due to devasta ton while these products
were being obtained and to the fact
that little or no attempt has been
made to put our idle forest lands (cut

HUTCHINSON KEEPING
UP GOLF RAMPAGE
Makes 1t Three Straight by
Winning Tourney at White
Sulphur Springs.
By KERR \. PETRIE.

There Is no holding Jock Hutchison,
the Glen View star. Particulars OF the
final round of the open tournament at
White Sulphur Springs have been a
trifle slow in making their way to New
York. but coming they show Jock at
the head of the procession for the third
consecutive tournament, and this time
with an aggregate score for the seventy
two holes Of 2SS.
Hutchison's last round was "A and,
that being the same as was returned by
Cyril Walker of Englewood. II left the
Chicagoan leading the field by margin
of three strokes. Fred Mcleod OF Co
lumbia, with q II for his concluding
round and grand total of 292, drew
down third money while George Fother-
ingham of Breton Woods. who tied Nc
Leod for second prize in the North and
South at Pinehurst. this time finished
In a deadlock with Joseph II. Kirkwood.
sthe Australian champion. and Leo Diegel
OF Lochmoo-, Detroit, at 293. The last
time around Diegel pulled himself out Of
the nire with a round of 6S, one above
the record which Hutchison set for the
third round. Fotheringham's score was
"A, while Kirkwood took 76 to finish.
That trip to Scotland which Jock
treated himself to during the cold
months appears to have done the Chi
cago meteor world of good. Travelling
costs good deal these days. but at the
rate he IS going Jock should soon clear
expenses.
His first tourney since his return
from abroad was the affair at Jackson
Vile. in which he finished third. After
that he proceeded to Asheville. N. G..
where he put together three Sos and a
II, which left him with grand total Of
278 and nine shots ahead of the field.
Immediately following. the Asheville
play Hutchison returned to Chicago. but
came back in hurry with his very best
game to annex the honors in the North
and South. In the latter event. Incl
dentally. he made another 50. which like
the 81 at White Sulphur. stands as a
record. This Is how the leaders finished
at White Sulphur:
Hutchison, 2SS; Walker, 291; Mcleod,
