MOTHER HEN TOO
MUCH FOR CROW
Black Marauder Put to Flight
When He Attempts to Carry
Off One of Brood.

Lewes, Del.-A mother hen belong
ing to George Walls, a farmer living
along the Georgetown-Rehobo Beach,
has proved that the chicken is a bet
ter fighter than old Jim Crow. A day
or two ago hen of the common barn
yard variety, while plotting thirteen
fluffy youngsters through a wheat
stubble, saw big black crow pounce
on one of her little ones and attempt
to fly off with it for supper.
The mother then saw the peril Of
her progeny and leaped in the air,
reaching the black kidnaper and be-
laboring him so severely that he was
obliged to drop the chick and fly into
a high altitude for safety. Several
automobilists who witnessed the bat
tie declare the hen never showed the
white feather for a moment nor hest
tated in attacking the greatest foe of
the chicken family.
They were, however, amazed at the
ferocity with which she countered on
the black marauder, and the crow
himself was evidently taken by sur
prise at the violence of his assailant
for he winged away at top flight to
the nearest woods, leaving two OF
three neck feathers behind as testi'
mony of the proves of the mother
hen.
In such. encounters the crow is con
sidered almost equal to two barnyard

Blazing Footsteps Mark
Wild EIiuht of Boy.

ChickaSha, Okla.-Alvin Rob-
erts, fourteen years old, put a
tube of phosphorus in his pocket
and is near death as a result.
His clothing suddenly ignited
and soon he was enveloped In
flames. He rushed to a black
smith shop, where he was soused
in tub of water, but the fire
started again when he was lifted
out. The shop also caught fire.
Rescuers' hands were scared
as they stripped the child's gar
ments from him, but his bare
body blazed. Papers and blan-
kets were consumed before the
fire was finally extinguished.
Where the boy ran in his
flight from pain, glowing foot
prints were left, where burning
phosphorus dripped down his
legs. He found the tube in an
alley.

Asks Girl to Depart.
Mrs. Quinn, realizing that the girl
was agitated over the news that young
Gumm had married, asked why Miss
Couture did not go away and leave
them alone.
"He's mine, Pearl Thomas" she re-
piled to the bride who formerly was
Pearl Thomas, manicurist and artist
model. Mrs. Quinn attempted to per-
suade the girl to go away and not
make a scene on account of the mar
riage.
"Oh, what's the use," she replied
despondently.
Then, according to Mrs Quinn, the
Couture girl asked that Mrs. Quinn
step out into the hallway.

had thrown her arms around him, but
even though wounded, he flung her
from him toward a corner. Then l
heard another shot, and, running back,
thought she had shot him again. When

the floor. She had killed herself.
When l saw her there, all crumpled

Daylight saving for New Eng

everybody hopes that the fool propo-
sition viii not be pnt in force by any
community next year. It's chief re-

Of the golfer ana joy-rider and exas-

Montpelier Argus.
Why should the Argus suffer from
such a sour stomach relative to day
light saving? It speaks just as
though it had missed connections and
had to wait an hour at Montpelier
Junction, the dreariest spot in Yer
mont. Daylight saving seems to
please not only the golf players but
also the twilight league baseball
players the amateur gardeners, the
tennis and croquet players, the fisher
men. and the greater number OF in
door workers in office and factory
! In Bennington 1t has resulted even in
the building of dozen or more
homes after working hours, by men
ambitious to have a home of their
own. They could never have man
aged II except for the extra hour OF
daylight after work in summer. Just
because the Argus genius Is fat, mid
die aged and shiftless, and likes to
sit up late at night and lay abed un
I'll the middle Of the forenoon. he
really shouldn't be so hard.hearted
about the matter. II really isn't nice
of him to call we all fools who dc
not agree with him on the question
OF daylight saving.
