MONSTERS OF DISTANT PAST
Proof That Birds Capable Of Lifting
and Carrying OF FulI-Grown
Men Once Existed.

Z ~. p. i.
Recent scientific discoveries in vari-
Gus parts of the world go to prove that
in times long gone by there were birds
big enough to lift n man into the air
without difficulty. observes a London
Tit-Bits writer.
1t is well known that an eagle with
a five-feet spread of wings can lift a
lamb weighing ten pounds. and that O
bird can generally lift one-half more
than its own weight. Many of the
enormous birds of :, ancient times
weighed many hundreds of pounds,
and. some of them had a spread of
wings which would cover a present
day street car.
There once lived in the Rocky noun
tains of America race of parrots
seven feet high. One nearly complete
skeleton of this remarkable species
has been preserved. and fragments of
others have recently been dug up.
These parrots are supposed to have
trodden the earth about 100000
years ago.
Another amazing creature was a
running bird of prey of the heron fam
lily. IT had a head larger than that Of
O horse, with huge sharp beak, and
was eight feet high. Like the parrot,
1t could not fly to any height, as its
wings were not large enough to sup
port II.
In the island of Madagascar there
used to be an enormous bird called
the aepyornis. This creature was ten
feet high and lnid eggs thirteen inches
long and three feet in circumference.
1t is supposed to have become extinct
only little more than century ago.
Although the aepyornls must have
been a sufficiently awe-inspiring sight,
the giant moa' of New Zealand.
which stood IA feet high and weighed
at least half ton. must have been
even more so.

MEXICAN BANDITS AGAIN

Reports of the activities of
Mexican bandits have been so
frequent i'll recent DAYS as to
cause fresh concern in the United
States for the safety of American
lite and property as we'll as for
the stability of the government
south of the Rio Grande.
There has been long reign of
comparative quiet in the oil fields
since the accession of Oregon.
That outlawry again is rife
would seem to indicate that the
diSorderly element has found rea-
son to believe that it can resume
operations with impunitv or that
new conspiracy has been form
ed to forge intervention by Uncle
Sam.
News of an "oil war" lends coll
or to the assumption that persons
who would like To see American
soldiers i'll Mexico are fomenting
trouble but there is thus far not a
scintilla of evidence to substan-
tate the insinuation. 1t is far
more sensible to believe that one
or more restless bandit leaders
have come out of their fastness
Tor a new trial at arms with or
ganiZed authority. That Obre-
CONS regulars arc reported to
have dispersed 4 bandit band
gives probability to this latter in
depreciation.
Americans will..be inclined to
view the recent outbreaks of out
lawry with calm and to withhold
Judgment. They have had evil
denceS heretofore that selfish in
terests would like to embroil us
with our southern neighbor, and
our people are determined that
we shall not be enmcshed bv any
such means. We will maintain
peace with Mexico as long as
there is, any honorable means OF
doing SO.
At the same time, President
Obregon's administration faces a
real test If the present Mexican
government is able to suppress
the banditry without too great
delay an important step will have
been taken toward making pos
sible recognition and full CO.
operation. If Oregon fails, rec
ognltIop is almoSS. certain to be.
delayed.

Something to
Think Ab0uf
WHO WANTS TO KNOW
By F. II. WALKER

TT YOU are sincere in your desire TO
know how to achieve, how TO make
yourself worthy of the highest con-
fidence and thus become competent
&c hold place above the ordinary,
you will lose no time In acquiring the
necessary knowledge.
You will not waste a single hour In
idleness or unproductlve effort, the
basic cause of dlsappointnents and
failure
You will 60 to your task seriously
with unyielding determination TO win.
In your pursuit, which in little
while will have become an exhilarat-
Ing pleasure, you will discover that
oil the men and women who are hold
Ing the prominent places did In the
beginning Of their careers Just what
you are doing.
They squandered no time In the
foolish chase of rainbows, choosing
instead the companlonship of wise
councillors and the perusal In their
spare time of instructive books, seek
ing truths and principles upon which
they could build a substantial foun-
dalton for the erection of their life
work.
They tossed the chaff to the winds
and stored with utmost prudence the
golden grain.
The, greatest men of today, the
conspicuous leaders In the professions,
the arts and the crafts, struggled hard
In their youth to get foothold upon
the hills. They knew what they were
seeking and never relinQuished their
high purpose or slackened their pace
though they often slipped and went
to bed hungry.
Their experiences with the world
gave them nm understanding of men
and affairs with fullness impossible
otherwise.
Their present wealth. power and
influence are envied by the thought
less. who sneerlngly talk among them
selves of "chance" and luck" those
misnomers for work and pluck :,
Being envied is a high distinction.
And this Is especially true when II
Is obvious that the real cause of envy
Is based on the admitted ignorance
and regret of men and women who
covet distinction but invariably lack
courage to take a place in the front
and bear the brunt Of battle.
The youths Of the present who want
TO know, who are brushing asidevohl
stGcles, who are exerting every effort
to learn. will In the future be found
among the foremost workers and
thinkers in the worlds great activities
simply because they have with their
rcsClute hearts the spirit and faith,
without which no man or woman can
hope to win a glorious name.

The Friendly
Path z Waite; S.s;.:.:
EVERYONE MUST PAY
EVERYONE must pay for what he
- gets.

EVERYONE must pay for what he
- gets.
There is law of recompense which
cannot be evaded or ignored.
II one prizes his happiness ne must
expect to pay. Eventually the bin col
lector will demand his toll. Unless
payment is made rough pathway lies
directly ahead.
Many constantly fear the bill col
lector who comes and demands money
toll. But he is the most harmless of
all the collectors. The real collector
to be feared is the one which takes the
form OF conscience. II is impossible
to dodge this one or to brighten him
off with double-barreled gun.
Those who imagine they have ended
the collector when in the form of con-
science are foolishly deluded. But
even though they may get some enjoy
ment out of life because they think
they have satisfied themselves that
their consciences were wrong. they
can always expect another collector
which takes the form of law to hound
them until the debt is paid. f.ss
In this age when many. fathers and
mothers are worried concerning the
future of their children. there is good
reason TO impress upon the young
people the Importance of being on the
sQuare-on the square with the world
as well as with themselves. Too many
start into their worlds pathways bent
on getting as much as they can-both
in material value and pleasure-with-
out paying for its worth. II parents
allow boys and girls. when their
characters are in the making. to get
this false impression of the way best
to get on, sorry days are likely to be
ahead not alone for the sons and
daughters and their children. but for
the fathers and mothers as well.
