Ducks and geese, for some unaccount-
able reason, long have been regarded rs
the most stupid of Mother Natures
feathered children. That this belief Is
false one has been demonstrated times
without number; and one OF the most
convincing proofs that ducks esPeclaNy
are Of a much higher order OF intelll-
pence than they usually receive credit for
is shown in the fact that duck actors
take the most important parts In new
Sunshine comedy about to be released
by William Fox.
The title Of the picture Is THE Wise
Duck and 1t is said to be OF such an
unusually funny nature that Mr.. FOX
has placed it in his list Of special comedy
productions, and In many OF the theaters
where 1t will be shown It will be the
most important entertainment on the Dill
The ducks perform like human beings,
it Is said, and the picture contains such
variety of novel features and stunts
that 1t Is expected to take its place as
one Of the greatest comedies of the sea
son.

More canaries are sold than any other

with care. Then, too, one never can tell
what sort OF language ones parrot Is apt

and for this reason many people are
afraid to take chance on them"

And the telescope fish must not be for

FLAPPER ONLY
EXPRESSES HER
YOUTHFUL SOUL
Ministers Daughter Declares
Bodied Hair and Moderate
Length Skirt O. *.

To the Editor: After reading Nora
Kays interview with Miss Burnside in
the Daily Times, wish to express my
opinion on what is called the modern
fapper.
1t seems to me that the styles are more
sensible and comfortable than they have
ever been. As In all cases, there are a
few exceptions-the girl who wears her
dresses above her knees and her hose
below her skirts.
I am considered a well educated, re-
fined business girl, and / have bobbed
hair and wear my skirts short, but not
extremely SO.
My associates are from some Of the
most refined families in the city and
they, as well as their families, approve
Of bobbed hair.
When properly taken care Of it is
very youthful and comfortable looking
You will find just as many disreputable
women with long hair.
What would life mean to US, continu
Ing In the same rut, year after year?
Today's fapper is but the outward ex-
preston Of what youth has always had
hidden in it's heart.

1922 budget aggregate less than 1919 Of the 1921
total revenues (partly estimated). These reve-

$267,000,000.
For the period of 116 years, from the establish

ordinary budget, exclusive of receipts from loans
and capital expenditures, reflected in each year
a favorable balance, the surplus for the period
aggregating about 1884, 4,000, 900. In the more re-
cent budgets, due principally to capital and other
extraordinary expenditures, there have been sub
stantial deficits. The floating debt amounts to
$222,O00,O00, but without allowance for any reduc-

over period Of many years, include tramways

phone and telegraph systems, tin mines, coal
mines and harbor developments. The govern
