Disarmament in Hunting
BY MAJOR JACK. ALLEN
adventure Film Starr

Mr. Average American Citizen
stands up and waves his red, white
and blue silk handkerchief in favor
OF the disarmament OF nations, as dis
cussed at the conference in Washing
ton. Yes, nine times out of ten, our
friend is an ardent propaganda in
favor OF peaceful pursuits for the
world powers. Yet this same Mr.. A. A.
Citizen would probably declare that
armament could not be practiced in
the hunting field. Maybe he is not as
brave and manly as he simagines, or
perhaps he has that famous ailment
known as .cold feet
OF course, am not going to suggest
that arbitration could be used in paci-
flying a lion. But, / do contend that
you do not always have to indulge in
lion slaughter or savagery to get"

Adventure picture called Capturing
Lions Via Aeroplane." My antidote

everything else, it takes a little train

arms.
This disarmament idea of mine is
along the lines of conservation of
game and wild animal life.
Why cannot the spirit of fair play
be applied to hunting. just as in busi-
ness or domestic everyday life? Even
a cat. after catching a mouse usually
gives her tiny prey sporting chance
for its life by playing with it for a
few moments. If mere animals can
show fairness. SO much more should
we civilized human beings evidence.
So, give disarmament a try when
hunting for mere sport-retire your
gun and practice with the lasso.

Environment and Health

One of the most important factors in
conserving the health OF the individ-
ual is favorable environment. BY en-
vironment is meant everything outside
the body that effects it and, of course,
for the maj orIty OF people. the home
constitutes the most important part OF
the environment. This is particularly
true OF children since they spend the
greater part OF their time in or about
their homes. and get there the founda-
ton on which their health in later
years depends. For persons employed
away from home. industrial and occu-
pational hygiene is extremely impor-
tant also, but the conditions among
which people actually live and eat and
sleep concern everybody.
There are many important factors
that enter into making the home en-
vironment favorable or unfavorable
to health. Among them are cleanli-
ness. light heat, ventilation. the ex-
clusion of flies and ether insects, the
bage. as well as the right conditions
for rest and recreation
There is not enough consideration
given to the above questions. Most
people live where they must, and few
have any part in planning the con-
struction of their own houses. In
choosing a house. however. one should
remember that rooms where sunshine
never enters are unfit for occupation.
For children, in particular, fresh air
and sunshine are essential, and it may
be economy in the end to pay COM
parativefy high rent for an apartment
having sunshine during at least a part
of the day. Ignorance and carelessness,
unfortunately, can spoil the best liv-
ing conditions, and sometimes even in
the country fresh air and sunshine
are excluded from sleeping and living
rooms.
The majority of people do not real
ize the Importance OF these home con-
ditions. and they impair their health
and shorten their lives with improper
ventilation and insufficient sunshine
and yet think that they are taking the
best possible care of themselves be-
cause they are paying strict attention
to diet.

The carrier pigeon has found a place
for itself in the fire. fighting forces
of the forest service. It demonstrated
it's worth this year in the Idaho Ma
tionai forest, and will be installed next
year at all protective camps in that
district. AS means of quick and
certain communication between the
ranger out on the fire line and head
quarters, the carrier pigeon has no

department of agriculture state.
One bird, after a preliminary course
of training was taken a rough trip by
pack horse, kept over night at its des-
tination, and released the next day.
This carrier was back at its coop, at
headquarters, 80 minutes after it was
released, having covered IS miles, air
line, and flown over high mountain.
It's mate equalled the performance.
Another, released at dusk from the
bottom of a canyon. rose abruptly,
crossed two high ranges, and was at
its coop before dark. A third, carried
in a back pack into high peaks Of the
Buckhorn country, flew home within
an hour, covering in that time a good

In face of fire, this performance was

FORD THE BEST BIDDER


In practically dismissing other pro-
posaIs than that Of Henry Ford for
the operation OF the Muscle Shoals en-
terprises from consideration. secre-
tary Weeks has done what the people
did some time ago Almost from the
time Mr. Ford submitted his bid, pop
ular opinion has dena nded its accep-
lance There was a sort Of instructive
impression that Ford had the initia-
tive and resources to develop the inn
provement on broad lines, and this
view has been strengthened by events
which have occurred since.
AS perhaps excusing his long delay
before deciding the matter Secretary
Weeks has been understood to init
mate that some Of the details Of the
Ford offer are not in accord with the
departments requirements. The nature
of these differences, however, aside
from the estimates on the cost of COM
pleting the Wilson dam, is not general
" known to the people. Whether justi-
fled or not, an opinion has gained
Roadway that the secretary has de-
layed action in the hope that an offer
comparable Win mat OF FOIo WOul0
come from another quarter.
According to advices from Washing
ton, Saturday, however, there is rea-
son to believe that the Muscle Shoals
matter will soon be submitted to con-
gress. Representatives of Ford, per-
haps Ford himself, are to confer with
the secretary this week. With other
bidders virtually out of the running,
it is hardly conceivable that an agree
ment cannot be reached with Ford.
In other words. il is difficult to believe
that Fords offer, even unamended. is
not greatly to be preferred over the
scrapping of the plants.
Announcement that the bargain had
been awarded to Ford would thrill in
dustrial circles all over the south, all
over the country, even. It would serve
as no mean factor in promoting the
resumption of activity everywhere.
Ford has demonstrated his capacity
for handling big operations success
fully. The people believe in him. With
more than s100,0Oo,00o in bank there
is little fear of financial embarrass-
ment interfering with Fords plans.
Let the work go forward at the earliest
possible date-Chattanooga News.

THE ORIGIN OF THE
NAME tom SAWYER

Mark Twains publishers. Harper &
Brothers, describe the manner In
which they discovered the origin of
the name tom Sawyer In 1903,
they brought out a group OF volumes
which they called MARK Twain's Best
Books" and which were sold all over
the country. One day. not long after, a
Californian rushed into Harper's very
much excited because Tom Sawyer
had not been included in the set It
developed that his name was Tom
Sawyer, and that in Mark Twain s
early days as newspaper reporter, the
Sawyer cafe, on the Barbary coast,
was great rendezvous for young fell
lows. According to MIR. Sawyer, Mark
Twain aeldon had money with which
TO pay for his meals, and his score or
debts was marked upon blackboard
In spise OF the fact that the debts were
never erased, yolng Twain wes al
ways welcome because OF his mex
hausl.ble fund OF jokes and stories.
Later he named his famous character
after the proprietor.
