After Dinner Stories

He was big, beetle-browed police
captain. Old John Kineary, a second
cousin, had a habit of waking up the
cops on a certain beat and getting
himself brought to the station house
on one or another charge.
What's 'oor name?" doomed the
captain one night, as two bluecoats
held poor Kinneary up to the blotter
rail. You know my na'ame, respond
ed poor John, in brogue enriched by

captain. Il want it fur the record"
And so it went, the prisoner sparring
with his cousin at every question. And
so it was when it came to age.
How old are 'oo?" the captain
shrieked, on the third attempt; and
finally the answer came, I'm ninety

Swiftly but majestically the blue
giant got outside the rail, and his
flashing right found the point of the
cousins jaw.
"There!" muttered the captain. as
he resumed his post. DOLL be a hun

Vocational Education

Vocational education is of value not only to
farm boys, but also is preparing boys for places
in industry. The appended survey shows the
actual value of the courses

First of Bogoslof Islands
Was Born 126 Years Ago

The first of the Bogoslof group of
the Aleutian Islands was born" 126
years ago. There was a great con-
vulsion in the Boring Sea, about 25
miles north of Unalaska, and an isl
and appeared above the surface of the
stormy waters. This islet, which rose
to height of nearly 5000 feet above
sea level, was christened Bogoslof by
the Russians, who then owned Alaska.
1t remained solitary and alone until
1882, when another valconic eruption
in the sea was followed by the birth
of another island near the first.

lem of developing the best grasses for
golf courses, but experts of the depart
ment of agriculture have assisted in
experimental work in that line at the
several country clubs around Wash
ington. Golf courses need a heavy,
springy turf for the fairways and q
softer grass for the putting greenc
that can be cultivated to a velvety
smoothness. Great difficulty is ex-
peTienced in getting grasses that will
not burn out in dry hot weather, and
crab grass is the bane of the green
keepers. Just at present the Colum-
bia Country Club at Chevy Chase, Md,
seems to have come nearest the solu-
ton of the problem with a species Of
bent grass for greens that holds its
own under adverse weather conditions
and always affords an admirable put
ting surface.

Mothers! Educate Your
Children IN Health

The day of an education limited to
the three Rs is forever past. 1t is
just as essential in the complex life
we have now developed that boys and
girls learn how to preserve their
strength and protect themselves from
disease and debility as it is that they
learn languages, mathematics, music
or art.
The responsibility for the health Of
the vast army of 100000 boys and
girls in the schools of the United
States rests mainly with the mothers.
Are you prepared to meet this gray
est of parental responsibilities?
Much valuable advice and informa-
ton relating to the school child's
health is contained in an authoritative
booklet prepared by the American
School Hygiene Association. This

PERSIA is ANXIOUS
TO REALIZE ON HER
RICH OIL DEPOSITS
rRy Associated Pressl

TEHERAN, PERSIA, Sept. %. -
Ismail Agha Simko, the Kurdish rebel
chief who for two years has been set
ting at defiance the authority Of the
Persian government, has fled across
the frontier into Turkish Kurdistan.
His forces have been routed by Ria
Khan, the Persian War Minister, who
is Commander-in-Chief of the Persian
army, Simko's stronghold at Cherigh
west of Lake Urmia, in Northern Per
STA, was captured after bitter fighting.
Many guns and prisoners were taken.
The internal situation in Persia con-
tinues unsettled. In the absence of
stable central government, robber
bands and tribesmen have been looting
and plundering, and many of the prin-
cipal roads are insecure.
Outside of tales of disorder, oil is
the one absorbing topic of converse
ton. The country has rich petroleum
deposits, and the men in authority are
eager to realize on this national
wealth. And in this connection the
following story is told:
Considered Concession
1t seems the government, some time
ago considered granting a so year
concession for oil exploitation Jointly
to an English and an American COM
pany. One of the companies thereup-
on made an advance of $1,000, 900 to
the government, based on the assump-
ton that the concession ultimately
would be made operative. At least
that was the understanding of the oil
men.
Once In hand, the million was ex-
pended quickly. 1t went to pay troops
in the field, and lot of overdue sal
aries to officials.
i When the government learned that
the advance was conditional upon ex-
elusive concessions, there was trou-
BILE, for in the meantime it had become
actively engaged in negotiations with
other oil interests, looking to get as
much as it could from the potential
wealth under the ground. It made
i every effort to get back the 81 100000,
but too late. Every cent had been
expended.

The performer offers to balance a

pin. This sounds impossible; neverthe-
less, he does it.
The drawing explains the secret.
Two forks are called in to assist in
the accomplishment of the feat. The
prongs of the forks are wedged to-
gether, and the coin is wedged In be-
tween the prongs. The coin may then
be balanced on the point of the pin,
the forks acting as counter weights.

Q. What is the difference between
Jam, marmalade and buffers Pr. E.
D.
A. AS a rule. only the small fruits
of which the whole may be used are
utilized in jam making. The fruit is
crushed in the juice so as to produce
a homogeneous mixture. Buffers arc
more smooth and more mixed than
jams. For this purpose fruits which
contain a large proportion of fleshy
material are used Buffers are fur
Their characterized by the frequent use
of spices and other flavoring agents.
Marmalades stand midway between
Jams and buffers. Larger fruits than
those for jams are used. Fruits whose
pulp will not produce the smooth con-
sistcncy desirable in butter are used
in marmalade making. By slight diff
ference in preparation, the same fruit
may make either a marmalade or a
butter. For example, if peaches, are
cooked until soft before adding the
sugar, the resulting consistency is
that of a butter If the sugar is add
ed at the beginning of the operation
the pulp is preserved in small pieces
rather than being reduced to a smoOtl,
paste. This results in a marmalade.
