THINK SHIPS SEA MONSTERS
Why Many Creatures Of the Deep
Follow Vessels for Days 10
Explained by Scientist.

Odd as II may seem, there Is reliable
testimony to the fact that ships are
often mistaken by denlzens OF the
deep for monsters after their own kind
or liking
One scientist who specially referred
TO the matter was the late Prof. Nose
ley, who, when on the famous Chal-
lenger, formed the impression that
whales, as well as porpoises, viii ac-
company ship for several days under
the belief that they are attending a
huge whale, London Answers says.
When the Challenger was In the south
Pacific, "hump-back" whale followed
II for nearly week. and the only con-
,lusion that the scientific stan could
come to was that the monster mistook
the ship for brother "hump-back.
The shark Is frequently attended by
sucker fish and when the latter have
lost their shark they often cling TO a
vessel for days together, under the
mistaken Idea that the bulky craft Is
their long-l0st friend.
SO. too, with that other friend OF
the shark-the pilot fish. One of these
fish viii swim for days just before
vessels bow. which II believes TO be
a sharks snout.
As time goes on and the huge
"shark" does not seize any food and
drop the hungry but faithful pilot fish
some dainty morsels, the latter de-
parts, thinking. no doubt. that 1t never

what l mean.)
 We'll, what was l saying? Oh, knOw-about asking questions. As said, there isn't anybody like Nurse Sarah here. l can't understand Olga, and Theresa, the other maid, is just about as bad. Aunt Hattie's lovely. but I can't ask questions of her. She isn't the kind. Besides, Lesters al- ways there, too; and you can't discuss family affairs before children. Of course there's Mother and Grandpa Desmond. But questions like when it's proper for Mother to have lovers can't ask of them, of course. So there's no one but Peter left to ask. Peters ell right and very nice but he doesn't seem to know anything that want to know. So he doesn't amount to so very much, after all.
 I'm not sure, anyway, that Motherll want to get married again. From It, tie things she says l rather guess she doesn't think much of marriage, any way. One day l heard her say to Aunt Hattie that 1t was a very pretty theory that marriages were made in heaven, but that the real facts of the case were that they were made on earth. And another day l heard her say that one trouble with marriage was that the husband and wife didn't know how to play together and to rest together. And lots of times I've heard her say little things to Aunt Hattie that showed how unhappy her mar. riage had been.
 But last night a funny thing hap pened. We were all in the library reading after dinner, and Grandpa looked up from his paper and said something about a woman that was sentenced to be hanged and how a whole lot of men were writing letters , protesting against having woman hanged but there were only one or two letters from women. And Grand pa said that only went to prove how much more lacking in sense of fit- ness of things women were than men. And he was just going to say more when Aunt Hattie bristled up and tossed her chin, and said, real indig- nantly:
 "A sense of fitness of things, in- deed! Oh, yes, that's all very we'll to say. There are plenty of men, no doubt who are shocked beyond any thing at the idea of hanging woman ; but those same men will think noth- ing of going straight home and mak- ing life for some other woman so ab- solutely miserable that she'd think hanging would be lucky escape from something worse"
 Harriet '" exclaimed Grandpa in c shocked voice.
 "Well, l mean iti' declared Aunt Hattie emphatically. Look at poor Madge here, and that wretch of hus. band of hers!"
 And just here Is where the funny thing happened. Mother bristled up- Mother !-and even more than Aunt Hattie had. She turned red and then white, and her eyes blazed.
 That will do, Hattie. please, in my presence" she said, very cold, like ice.

That Will Do, Hattie, Please, In My
 Presence" She Said, Very Cold, Like
 Ice.
 "Dr. Anderson Is not wretch at all. He is an honorable, scholarly gentle man. Without doubt he meant to be kind and considerate. He simply did not understand me We weren't suited to each other That's all."
 And she got up and swept out of the room
 Now. wasn't that funny? But I just loved ii. all the same. l always love Mother when she's superb and naughty and disdainful.
 Well, after she had gone. Aunt Hat tie looked at Grandpa and Grandpa looked at Aunt Hattie. Grandpa shrugged his shoulders, and gave his hands funny little flourish and Aunt Hattie lifted her eyebrows and said:
 Well what do you know about thatf" tAunt Hattie forgot l was in the room, know, or she'd never in the world have used slang like thatD And after all the things she's said about how unhappy she was!' finished Aunt Hattie
 Grandpa didn't say anything, but just gave his funny little shrug again.
 And it was kind of queer. when you come 10 think of it-about Mother, II mean, wasn't IL?
The Nevada County picayune., 1922-04-20

Lots of her old friends have been to see her; and when there hasn't been anybody else around she's taken Peter and had him drive us all over Boston to see things-all kinds of things ; Bunker hill and museums, and moving pictures, and one play.
 But we didn't stay at the play. It started out all right but pretty soon q man and a woman on the stage began to quarrel. They were married tnot really, but in the play, l mean), and l guess 1t was some more of that in compatibility stuff. Anyhow, as they began to talk more and more, Mother began to fdget, and pretty soon saw she was gathering up our things; and the minute the curtain went down after the first act, she says:
 Come dear, we're going home. It. 1t isn't very warm here"
 AS if didn't know what she was really leaving for! Do old folks hon estly think they are fooling us all the time, l wonder2 But even if hadn't known then, I'd have known 1t later, for that evening l heard Mother and Aunt Hattie talking in the library.
 No, didn't listen. l heard. And that's a very different matter. You listen when you mean to, and that't sneaking. You hear when you can't help yourself, and that you can't be blamed for. Sometimes it's your good luck, and sometimes it's your bad luck-just according to what you hear
 We'll, was in the windOw-seat in ne library reading when Mother and Aunt Hattie came in and Mother was saying:
 "Of course came out Do you sup pose I'd have had that child see that play, after l realized what 1t was? As fl she hasn't had enough of suci wretched stun already In her short nfel Oh, Hattie, Hattie. I want that child to laugh, to sing, to fairly jingle with the joy of living every minute that she Is with me. l know so we what she has had, and what she will have-in that-tomb. You know in six months she goes back"
 Mother saw me then, l know; for she stopped right of short, and after a moment began to talk of something else, very fast And pretty quick th went out into the hall again.
 Dear little Mother! Bless her old heart Isn't she the ducky dear to want me to have all the good times possible now so as to make up for the .six months I've got to be with Father You see, she knows what it Is to live with Father even better than l do.
 We'll, l guess. she doesn't dread It for me any more than I do for myself. Still, I'll have the girls there. and I'm dying to see them again-and l wont have to stay home much, only nights and meals, of course, and Fathers al- ways pretty busy with his stars and comets and things. Besides it's only for six months, then I can come back 10 Boston. l can keep thinking of that.
 But I know now why I've been hay ing such perfectly beautiful time all this week, and why Mother has been filling every minute so full oi fun and good times. Why, even when we're at home here, she's always hunt

Considerable discussion has arisen
among Legislators as to what action
VIII be taken regarding the automo-

Assembly, as certain communities are
asking their lawmakers to place a
bill before the assembly that would
return these fees to the individual

Commission Opposes
The highway commission in point
ing out, as is the present administra-
ton. that such a move would hamper
the States cooperation with the Fed
eral Government in its construction
program and that the meager amounts
which some counties would receive
would be negligible when compared
with the cost of road construction.
The commission further pointed out
that this reverSiOn would send the
bulk of the money back TO the coun-
ties which least need money for con-
structiOn work, as the counties in
which the larger cities are located, and
from which the largest returns are
netted, are invariable in better shape
than many Of the smaller counties

obtained.
