TALK
Man. commonly accused OF a ten
dency to talk too much, is losing the
art of speech in big American cities
So says Prof. Edward Sapir, Cana
dian anthropologist, after a visit to
New York.
He found New Workers inclined to
be economical of conversation. They
surrender to the difficulty OF talking
in the uproar OF business.
People lapse into silence when they
have to compete with loud noise
Maybe what Congress needs is to have
boiler factory built next door.
QUEER
For twenty years no visitors were
allowed in the Mellon home in Mil
waukee. Firemen broke in. They
found a dog temple. Nine mum1nifed
dogs, extensively draped, lay in state
in the candle-lighted parlor In an
upstairs room a queen dog presided
over eight living dogs. blinded oy
lack Of light. 1t all sounds like some
weird religious rite.
No one would think 1t queer. how
ever if the MELONS had kept mount
ed fish, deer heads or animal pelts
instead Of dog mummies. The strang.
est things in the universe are inside
the human skull The brain is So
complicated that no one understands
IL, not even the owner.

POSTOFFICE OFFICIALS
EXPECT HEAVY XMAS
BUSINESS THIS YEAR
fBy Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-Postoffice
officials are expecting heavy BUSH
ness at the Christmas period this year,
possibly heavier than ever before.
Mall was flowing heavily as early as
Nov. 1, 1t was pointed out, and when
the rush starts so early ii is taken as
sign of a big rush Of holiday mail.
The department began in october
the usual preparations for the holiday
increase and by Dec. the entire SER
vice will be ready. Officials see that
mail early" campaigns are having
their effect on the mailing public, re-
sulting in the unprecedented early
start OF Christmas business.
1t is estimated that the increase in
postal receipts during December over
a normal month is $S,000,000. About
100000 is spent for extra space on
trains to transport the mails, the mo-
tor vehicle service spends approx
mately 100000 above its regular SER
vice. and another $1,O00,000 goes for
additional clerk hire in the various
postoffices to sort mail.
Cost of Employees.
Another item is $350,000 for addi-
tional carriers. Added to these items
are the millions of money order
blanks, more millions of stamps, miles
of Irvine to bundle poorly tied pack
ages, and thousands of square feet of
emergency warehouse space.
Uncle Sans total bill for Christ
mas Is about as discoura ging as dads"
the department declares.
Deliver all Christmas mail by noon
Dec. 25,' is the watchword of the ser
vice as the day draws near, and it is
very seldom that the goal is missed
However, bad storm may delay de-
iiyeries, and adds terrifically to the
bill "A storm in New York last Christ
mas cost the postoffice department
100000 extra for motor vehicle trans
port alone. The postal service does
not wish for a white Christmas"

idnd OF Sheridan, when h hitter,
through perhaps a little finer train

fall o a two-ort-of-three fall finish
match with a powerful leg flip which
threw his man violently to the mat
disabling him for q continuance OF
the match
For a total active time of . hours
10 minutes and 20 seconds tho two
gladiators struggled in each others
grasp. unable to obtain an advantage
one way or the other. Not 4 foul was
recorded against either man. Al
every moment each was the clean
sport and willing to let his rival OBJ
tain a slight advantage nther than
violate the common law OF fair play.
Dushek weighed in before the
match at IFS pounds. Ekiund tipped

OF the wrestling fan. the men were
called an ever match. At h time OF
opening gong. Dick Farrell. local ref.

From the start of the first session.
Dushek appeared to have the better
of the argument, Repeated head
locks. scissors on every part OF the
body. and the manner which Dushc,s
possesses of carrying his man about
the ring and suddenly dropping him
to the canvas. seemed to tell on Elk

thrown by one OF his own weight
opened his eyes and realized that his
toughest battle was before him. Time
and again when Dushek seemed to
have an unbreakable hold on his ad-
versary. Eklund. who grappled IN his
bare feet, that their dexterity might
be still more pronounced. held him
off by the power contained in those
wonderful pedals
The boy from tho blue coun

body flips brought him from h griz-
ely grasp of Eklund's powerful legs
time and again when defeat seemed
imminent.
The speed and almost surer-hman
dexterity with which both men
handled themselves at all times
proved the chief point OF wonder TO
the fans, and not a man sat back to
rest while the grapplers lay o min
