You can see an alligator any day
YOU please in Florida; in their natural
haunts if you are ambitious, in the
museums, in curio shops, in hotel gar
dens sometimes, where in concrete
tanks they are provided instead OF
gold fish for the Requirement OF the
guests and sometimes you find them
in the studios OF enterprising photog-
raphers and you can have your photo
graph taken with one, il you wish, to
send back home TO the folks in Cal
gary or Bangor.
But Notwithstanding all this a visit
to an alligator farm, where you can
stare to your hearts content at the
dreadful, weird beasts and learn first
hand about their habits, is one OF the
most thrilling of the many thrilling
experiences that tourists to Florida
have, says a writer in the Philadelphia
Record.
There is usually a Snowman to take
YOU round and give you all the natural
history about the animals that you will
want to know. The only thing to re-
member is that most OF his observa-
tons have been made Of the alligator
in captivity, and that the discrepancies
between his statements and those OF
established men OF science are due to
this TACT
At one well-known farm where
you pay quarter to go through and
look as long as you wish, the show
man has provided a big thrill as a
starter in the long narrow box at the
entrance which bears the inscription,

Lasso." 1t has never been opened, but
it does certainly put spirit OF ad-
venture into the visit that you couldn't
get if the box was not there.

WALL ST. EXPLOSION
is STILL UNS0LvED
BLAST THAT KILLED SO TWO
YEARS AGO CONTINUES A
DEEP MYSTERY.

NEW YORK, n. Y.-The Wall
street bomb explosion, which cost the
lives Of 80 persons and injured 400
others, was still a mystery on ITS sec
ond anniversary q few days ago, al
though it is asserted that progress has
been made, promising solution.
New York city detectives and feder-
al agents are today at work in several
foreign countries, as well as III the
United States, and the search, accord
ing to Commissioner Enrlght, will
never be ended until the guilty are
brought to justice. Progress has been
made and the outlook for eventually
clearing up the case is hopeful, 1t IS
asserted.
The case is the most difficult big
crime which the New York police de-
partment ever has faced, and it is as
serted that more police work has been
done on it than has ever been done
on a crime in the history OF the world.
Detectives have been used on it by the
hundreds for months. There are. 50
members OF the bomb squad who are
drilled to always keep in mind the
Wall street explosion as the greatest
job they have before them.
Bits OF harness from the shattered
wagon in which the explosion oCCurr-
ed have been taken to every harness
maker in the United States in the
hope OF identifying it and tracing it
to the purchaser. Casts have been
made of curious broken bits OF metal
belonging to the mechanism OF the in
fernal engine, and those have been re-
ferred to engineers and tool experts
in all parts of the country for their
opinion as to the manner in which the
bomb was constructed.

SAYS FASHION WHIMS
ARE PURSE RAIDS
CONSTANT CHANGES IN DRESS
DENOUNCED BY PASTOR.
BURDEN INTOLERABLE.

CHICAGO, HIN a sermon i'll
which he denounced the constant
changes in women's fashions and
dress as being little less than immoral
and insane" the Rev. John Thompson,
pastor OF the First Methodist church,
Sunday issued a plea to women to re-
tain the short skirt in preference to
the long one now coming into style
after a lapse Of several years.
The short skirt, according to DR..
Thompson, is the best dress ever de
vised for women. He describes it as
being the only fashion lending toward
sanitation, hygiene and good health,
The long skirt with the panels sweep
ing the ground and stairways is a
menace to health, he said.
Men Victims, Too.
The shingles around a mans neck
and wrists indicate he is a victim Of
fashion," said the Rev Mr.. Thompson
But women are more so. We need
fashions as standards, but the constant
changes are little less than immoral
and insane.
There is no immortality in dress.
To the man with the goatish, swinish,
sewer quality OF mind nearly every
thing is immoral. The constant chang
es in dress places a burden on the
wage Garner that is intolerable.
How can a young husband with a
modest income afford to keep his wife
up to the dictates of fashions stand
ards? Who can ever tell how many
embellishments and perjuries have
been committed to keep up this race?
Then, the moral peril TO working
girls cannot be estimated. How can
they be expected with their modest
incomes to follow the constantly
changing STYLES? What a temptation
TO commercialize the body and set a
price on chastity Our fashion leaders
are carrying responsibility almost
akin to that OF the PROGRESSES to the
lords OF hell
Tribute to Short Skirts.
The short skirt is the best ever
devised. The woman OF ancient Greece
were among the most beautiful the
human race ever has seen because
they wore garments that permitted
freedom OF physical movement.
Our fashion leaders are simply
boosting trade. The movement is mer-
ccnary. 1t is a willy method of getting
money from those who have no mon
ey to waste in satisfying the whimsical
caprices Of fashions changes"
DR.. Thompson announced that he
was in favor of a movement to form
a league to fight against these freak
ish changes OF fashions. He asked the
women who are supporting the Young
Womens Christian Association and
other organizations which are set to
guard girlhood in the right way to
take the lead in such a movement.

MOLESkINS VALUABLE
 SOLD THROUGH POOLS
Boys and Girls Have Formed
 Clubs for Trapping.
Taught Approved Methods by exten- sion Workers and Representatives of Biological Survey-Prixes
 for Gophers.

Moleskins, which brought little or nothing in the ordinary fur markets. have been successfully pooled and sold Tn Washington and Oregon through farm bureau organizations. Boys and girls in many communities have formed clubs for trapping moles. Through the cooperative work of the extension agents and representatives of the biological survey of the United States Department of Agriculture, they have been taught approved methods of trap ping and skinning the moles.
 Two hundred and twenty mole belts were sold in Benton county. Ore, for boy and girl trappers. Linn county. Ore, reports three communities which offered 10 cents each for moles and pocket gophers and an additional prize for the three children killing the most pests. One community reports S3 moles killed in this way.
 Tillamook county, Ore. was divided into four districts. and $50 purses were allotted to each district for first, second, and third prizes. The county paid 5-cent bounty on both moles and pocket gophers. The moleskins were stored in the county agents office until a salable amount was col lected They were then sold to the highest bidder. All money received for the skins was returned to the trappers.

VAGARlES OF VACUUM TUBES
Peculiar Actions That AIways Astonish and Sometimes Brighten the
 Amateur Radioist.

Everybody who has had anything to do with vacuum tubes has from time to time had them do unexpected things and give results that at the moment seem beyond explanation.
 The explanation of several charac- teristics of these miniature giants which are met with In daily operation fs sure to prove of great interest to the amateur. In cases where the ac- tiOns of the tube are not understood these peculiarities have sometimes frightened people.
 One instance of newborn fans fright was brought to attention in a letter of inquiry. The instrument had just been set up and was being oper- ated for the first time. The tubes had been firmly adjusted and were just at the spilling point nnd-over they went, giving vent to the most unearthly sounds. The embryo enthusiast who looked upon the audion tube as an electric light, thought it was going to explode. He jumped away from the instrument and out of the room, and did not venture near It for several hours. and then only after reaching round the corner of the door with a long stick and pulling the battery switch on.
 Similar instances have come to at- tention when bulbs generate vari-col- cred vapors in the vacuum chamber.

There are several diseases of vege- tables which live over in the garden soil from one year to the next, and if the same crop Is planted in the same soil year after year 1t will be but . short time until the crop will prove . loss. These are mostly fungous and bacterial diseases and the only prac- tical way to overcome them Is to al- low the land to lie idle for two or three years or to plant crop which b immune to the disease.

TIPS TO THE RADloIST

Fired go caliber rife shells make good switch points for tun- ing coils and receiving trans formers.
 A single wire aerial 100 to 150 feet long Is sufficient for local and long distance reception of broadcasting stations.
 Do not string aerials across the street or across electric wires. Keep antenna wires of electric light and telephone poles.
 Stranded copper or solid cop- per wire should be used. Phos- phor bronze wire If obtainable is stronger but not superior to copper.
 Good contact with piece of mineral like galena can be had by wrapping 1t in tinfoil. Of course, the top of the crystal is left exposed.
 The brass ends of large car fridge shells make splendid crystal detector cups. They should be cleaned out thoroughly before they are used.
 The winding of cardboard tubes from oatmeal boxes may be improved greatly If the tube is first heated in an oven for about 15 minutes to take out the moisture and then wound; or better still shellac 1t while 1t Is still warm and leave 1t to soak in.
 In winding tuning coils. with bare wire thread should be wound on with the wire. This will separate each turn. When the coil Is finished the thread can be taken on. Shellac should be applied immediately. When the shellac is dry ths-eopper wire will hold It's place.

TWO BOOTLEGGERs CAPTURED
BY Sheriff Ashby and Con stable Frank
Browning Friday Night

Last Friday evening officers here
were notified that two foreigners, re-
siding in Kempton, were on their way
to Oakland with fifteen gallons of
moonshine liquor which they intended
to dispose of to prospective custom
ers in town.
Having this information in their
possession Sheriff Ashby and Consta-
BILE Frank Browning drove out to the
Mason school house, several miles
south of town, where they waited for
the arrival of the visitors. Instead,
however, of coming on into Oakland,
the two men, who were driving an
Overland car, turned off the Mason
road nearby the school house and
went to the Shady Dell grange hall
where they were arrested by the Of
ficers and brought into town. Here
they were given hearing before JUS
tice West on, the charge of bootlegg-
ing and importation of liquor, and
held in the sum of $500 for their ap-
pear at court. This the men were
unable to furnish and in default they
are being held in Jail.
