LIVE IN THE
 WOODS LIKE WILD ANIMAL s

CAIRO, IL, Nov. Il. = Two small boys, about eight and ten years old have been returned to civilization after living in a forest for an indef mite period like their prehistoric an cestors.
 The two boys were caught in the thickly wooded hills of Pulaski County after long chase by sheriff's posse The youngsters, dressed in rags and unable to speak, fought like little wildcats against being captured, scratching and biting members of the posse before their childish strength finally succumbed.
 Their existence was first discovered by a woman who noticed them while walking through the forest. She noti- fled the sheriff and set out in search. After several days of patroling the wooded hills they struck into the deep fly wooded section and caught sight of the children. ..N
 The youngsters fled at the approach ot the posse, one climbing tree with the agility of a monkey, and each chat tering to each other in monosyllables.

TENACIOUS POST
 CARDS BEING MADE
To the Editor:

To the Editor: ii'
 Will you allow me, through your columns. to protest against the almost universal habit of sending outside, post card photographs Of this country showing for the most part icebergs and snow banks. For instance, friend mailed one today of Front Street taken when the snow was at it's worst, last February. This was carefully marked Street in Cordova-' This was no doubt truthful represen- tation of the street as it appeared at that time, but the recipient had every right to believe that it represented the street at the time the post card was sent
 One of the thousand and one handi- caps under which Alaska labors, is this sort of misrepresentation of it as vast wilderness of ice and snow, with men and women living, for the most part, in igloos and fur parkas. Tourists delight in these cards, of course, being naturally prone to ex- aggerate the difficulties and dangers of their trip to Alaska, but those who have the interest of the country at heart will hesitate to send them, and it would be we'll if the dealers refused +o hord1o ovcb cf,,ff

 GOOD COMEDY

"A Case of Suspension, is the title of the comedy which forms part of the entertainment to be given under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid November 1st at the Empress The ater, according to statement made today by Miss verna Eastman, who is directing the play.
 "The members of the cast are learning their parts, and we expect to start rehearsals soon," Miss East man declared. But this is the extent of the infor- nation that the Times representative could obtain from her regarding the play.
 "Who will play the leading parts?'' he questioned. E "Oh, two or three ladies, and about as many men," was the evas- i've answer
 "Yes, but what are their names, mean"
 Their names? Just minute and I'll get copy of the play and give you the names of all the charac- ters," she rather boredly replied. Giving up this line of questioning as useless, the interviewer tried a new tack.
 What is the plot of the play? he asked.
 "Oh, the plot centers around cer- tain characters in humorous situ ations which partly supply a humor motif that threads the entire play The interviewer hurriedly wrote this statement in his notebook yer batim, thinking he might possibly find some one who could tell him what it meant.
 "At least, Miss Eastman" he de clared in desperation, Please tel me whether this comedy has ever been produced before, and if so where?"
 "Yes, yes, it has been produced be
 
 fore. But would rather you wouldn't tell anybody about it." she said, low ering her voice to confidentia whisper. "You see, it was this way The play was shown jut one nigh at a theater in a large eastern city but seven of the audience died during the show so the police stopped it and it has never been produced since"
 Seven of the audience died. Wha do you mean?"
 "Oh, they just naturally laughed themselves to death," was the swee reply. sgaa
 Thereupon, the interviewer grabbed his hat and made for the door, nut tering to himself, "The famous Ger dova Clam is a voluable creature compared to certain people I've met And, as for trying to pry informa tion from woman which she doesn' want to give-well, as one skuni said to another as the Ford went by Whats the use.'"
