WHY?
Why do Some Objects BEND and Others
Breaki
Copyright. 1920. By
wLeelel Syndicate. Inc.

BTtaht
In spite Of the tremendous advance
which has been made by science. IN spite
of the many discoveries which tend 10
make life far more pleasant and agree
able than il was a century or even
few decades ago. there are still many OF
the simplest things for which science
has yet TO find the true explanation.
Among these is the phenomenin known
as cohesion" or the Way III which
particles of matter tsiek together with
varying degrees OF strength.
II is comparatively easy. Tor example,
to pull apart the material of which a
leaf is made. while the shredding oI the
wood which makes up the trunk of the
tree is an operation which demands a
great expenditure of force. In this In
stance one reason for the difference in
cohesion lies in the comparative thick
ness Of the two substances but even a
thin sheet OF metal will resist an at
tempt 10 scperate its molecules. while Il
mass OF a more porous substance. like
a sponge, can be torn apart with less
cxertion
II is this same principle of cohesion,
onerating in a slightly different manner
that leads some objects to bend easily
while others break. through il is not pos
siblc TO explain just why this occurs
We know from experience that heat
has in some cases. some influence upon
this property--for sealing wax will
break when cold, but bend when heated
and, as arule, metallic substances will
bend far easier after they have been sub
iacted to heat or the process of temper
ing" The explanation Of this elasticity
undoubtedly lies in the way In which
the molecules are held together. whether
tightly or in a somewhat looser man
ner. but the reason for this difference
has vet to he accurately and simply

INDIAN MYTHS
How Birds and Fairies Came to Be
(AlgOnquin)

How Birds and Fairies Came to Be
(Algonquin)
Once-oh, very long time ago
there were no birds and no fairies
upon the earth. Now ! will tell you
a story of their beginning, as the
Indian grandmothers tell it to the
Red children.
Ten beautiful sisters lived in the
lodge of their father, and no maidens
in all the tribe were SO good to look
upon as they.
Young warriors came and sought
them in marriage, and one by one
the sisters went away to the lodges
Of their husbands, until only one was
eft in the lodge of her father.
This one was Oweenee, the young
est of all, and the most beautiful.
Many warriors had sought her favor,
bur she was not easily won. Her sis
ters Knocked her, but she cared not
for that. II shall know when the
right sutton comes" she said to her
own heart and went about her duties
in her fathers lodge.
One day an old man came to the
lodge door and talked with the
youngest sister and tho he seemed
old and bent with years, her heart
told her, HE is the one for whom
you have waited" And SO, when
he asked her to go to his lodge and
be his. wife, she consented.
Her sisters Knocked her more
than before, but they and their hus-
bands went with Oweenee and the
old man along the path.
The married sisters led the way.
and the old man, whose name was
Osseo, and the youngest sister.
Oweenee, walked behind, and the
girl was kind and thoughtful, and
watched the steps OF 'Osseo with
care. Fl.
But what was her surprise, as they
were about to pass a hollow log, to
see him suddenly dart into it's open
end and almost Immediately come
from the farther end-not old and
bent, but the youngest, the strongest
and the most active Of all the war
riors in the company. Then he took
the hand of the youngest sister, and
together they led the way to his
lodge.
The eyes of the youngest sister
were bright with happiness, but the
older sisters were dumb with aston
ishment.
When they entered the lodge OF
Osseo, they found feast prepared
The food was pain, and the dishes
were of wood. The lodge, too, seemed
shabby and poor. But while they
ate, the lodge began gently to rise
from the ground. Up and up it went
and it's shabby sides began to CLEAN
like silver. The food became the
richest and choicest and the dishes
became like shells of radiant colors
Up and up the lodge continued to
go, until at last it reached the Sky
Land and stopped before the door
way of the Evening STAR
The Evening Star greeted them
and spoke to Osseo. Then the sis

may were nominated for community
leaders, the latter being elected. M.
K. Hammer and Evan Huntsman
were nominated for secretary,
Huntsman being elected. These
elected are good team and will
serve the community well.
During the beet harvest Thomas
Steers cut the index finger of his
left hand with the beet knife. He
paid no attention to the wound at the
time and the sore promptly healed,
but about two weeks ago he was
taken sick and the doctor was called
and pronounced his illness blood
poisoning, caused by the wound in
his finger. 1t was lanced several
times and last Monday he was taken
to the hospital in Idaho Falls, where
he was operated on by DR.. Roberts of
Shelley and DR.. Cline Of Idaho Falls.
T. j. Bennett, the mayor of Shell
ley, was in Woodville December Z
and gave an excellent talk to the
school children on the tobacco ques-
ton. The tobacco committee Of
Shelley has started a campaign
against cigarettes among the schools
and this talk was part of the cam
paign.
During the month the community
will be entertained by the Mutuals

There are two swarms Of Bee Hive
girls here and they aim to do. a good
turn each month. The Blue Bird
swarm, ten strong together with
their bee keepers Mrs. Janet Everett
and Mrs. Esther Balmforth planned
a unique surprise on an elderly
widow, Mrs. G. P. Burke. Each bee
and bee keeper prepared fitting
token and with the arrival Of dark
ness they "swarmed" into the home
of Mrs. Burke, where they rendered
very nice program, greatly sur
prised the lady and left their little
tokens to Mrs. Burke, who will long
remember the occasion.

tiers and their husbands, who had
scoffed at Oweenee, knew that the
old man whom she had married was
no other than Osseo, the Son of the
Evening Star.
And Evening Star said, "You and
your beautiful bride are welcome to
my lodge, but these others who have
scoffed at her and at you may not
come inside. They may stay at the
lodge door"
Then the lodge of Osseo became q
wonderful silver cage, and the sisters
and their husbands were changed
into singing birds, with plumage OF
brightest colors, blue and red and
orange and scarlet. Any they flew
about intheir silver cage, and sang
to Osseo and his bride.
Now Osseo grew stronger and
more manly day by day, and his
bride grew sweeter and lovelier to
look upon. After many moons had
come and gone there came to Osseo
and his wife little son. AS the
boy grew he seemed brighter than
the starlight, and Osseo and Oweenee
loved him dearly; but his grand
father, the Evening Star, loved him
best of all.
One day Evening Star said to
Osseo, You must be must be careful
not to let the light beams from the
small star that dwells near by fall
/, upn the cage Of singing birds, or
upon yourself, or your wife, or your
son. The star is an evil spirit, and
the light beams are his enchanted
arrows. They change the form OF all
those upon whom they fall"
So. Osseo promised to be careful.
But after many moons had passed.
he forgot about the light beams OF
the star neighbor.
He made bow and arrows for his
little son, who loved to play at
shooting. Then one day the boy
said, II want to shoot some living
thing. How shall I learn to be a
hunter II have no game to shoot?"
II willopen the silver cage said
/ Osseo, "and yo umay shoot at the
flying birds
Then the little boy was pleased
and he drew his bow and Osseo
| opened the door of he cage. Nh
| Out flew the birds, glad to stretch
their wings, and the boy sped his
arrow after them. But swifter than
his arrow was the light beam of the
little star and it fell upon the birds
and the boy. .
Immediately they became en-
chanted. The birds flew swiftly
down to earth and lighted upon an
island in the midst Of green sea,
and the little boy, the grandson of
Evening Star floated softly. down
after them.
Then Osseo was full of sorrow and
he said to his father, "Oh, father!
let us go also, my wife and I, that we
may not be separated from our son. y
So Evening Star permitted Osseo
and Oweenee to enter the silver cage
and silver wings were given it and 1t
flew down to the island in the midst
of the green sea.
And then the enchantment of the
little star changed all of them tc
fairies and joining hands they
danced and sang in the starlight

upon them from his far-away home
