Jason wes not shepherd. He
was an adventHrer. He sheared
the fleece Of feehs not his. HUI
man beings are like sheep. They
love to be sheared. Some Hike to
be sheafed more than once, which
Z is the true mark of a sheep. Sheep
exist to grow crops of wool fer
others to wear. When they can
no longer grow wool, they are lamb
chops.
4 man saysl "If Jason fleeces me
once. that Is his fault, il he fieeeea
me twice, that Is my fault A
sheep says, t'Please shear me
again"
THIS writer will be neutral. For
ten years more or less he pFovid-
ed safe instruction, laying down
principle that wool belongs to the
grower, and not to Jason. Those
teachings were thought to be an
arch4ca1, were disregarded until the
golden fleece was gone. Did we
say gomez Some must have been
overlooked.

Prince Sigtsmund Hohenzo11ern,
with his young wife. Princess Char
Iotte, and their year old baby. will
go to ranching IN Guatemala. He
is nephew OF the late kaiser, son
of Prince Henry. known to ATnert-
cans. That spirit is the spirit
which actuated the first Hohenzol-
lerns They were strong, ambitt-
Gus, and wanting to be busy all the
time. They had a tradition of
large families. Some day there
may be a president of Guatemala,
named HohenzoHern. He may be
a dictator, as custom is in South
America and Bridgeport.
Times do change. New York
criminal statistics are out. In
1912 the courts spent most of their
time filming persons for intoxication.
In 1921 they spent it, filming per-

Marconi hopes to hear from Mars.
The planet win be close to earth;
some millions of miles away, and

hopes to pick up the same thing
again. Communication would not
be difficult, once established. A
system of numbers might be sent.
One would perhaps be one in any
planet, and two would be two.
From these simple elements other
information might be built up.
Scientists are doing away with
the ether. Steinmetz, electrical
wizard, has no use for the ether.
He thinks in terms of magnetic
force. Perhaps he's right. If
light is a motion in the ether, two
RAYS of equal strength, put togeth-
er, ought 10 double in intensity.
Sometimes they do. sometimes they
do not. Sometimes they produce
darkness. or anything between light
and darkness. This is the way
electric currents act, which some
times cancel each other out.
