A Crazy Farmer.
EIGHT wears ago, IN 1915, Anton
Soukup arrived in Mountain Park and
became the joke of the town when he
bought part of Mount Radzminsk
for a goat farm. Anton had his wife
and daughter with him, and soon
three goats were added to the little
family"
Anton never attended any social
functions in the town. The crazy
farmer, as he was called didn't mix
well He stayed at home and kept
his goats company. Then he bought
another piece of the mount. A third
and a fourth were added to his prop
erty. >
"Haw, haw," was the chorus when
ever Anton appeared in town. "A
farm on a patch of rocks! Well, what
could be expected of a crazy farmer?
But Anton held his peace-and kept
adding to his land. One day he bought
the last section of the mount Then
things began to happen.
Mysterious Telegram.
Anton went to the village telegraph
office and sent ~ telegram to one
Frank Svobodo, in Omaha Neb. 1t
read: Come to Mountain Park.
Then Anton hurried to, barber shop
and had his face moved, mad waited
at the railroad station for Frank.
When Frank arrived he and Anton
went into the office of the town bank

eing into the ice bank they came up

Good State of Preservation.
Its remarkable state of preservation
was awe-inspiring Some of its hair
measured thirty inches, and even the
coarse strands that adorned its stub
by tail were intact The skin was so
perfect that it was easily removed and
part OF it was sent to Washington
and the other part TO the Imperial
Academy of Sciences in Petrograd'
The bones and tuslis of the mann
moths. which lived during the PleiS,-
tocene period, are common to both
Alaska and Siberia, but only once be
fore had such a well preserved speci-
men been unearthed
What was considered yet more re-
markable, however, was the presence
of the undigested grass and plant HE
in the beasts stomach. Examination
showed the vegetation to be exactly
the kind of grass and flowers that
grow in northeastern Siberia today.
Bontanists, however, were able to de-
tcrmine that the mammoth died about
the middle of August because they
found among the mass severa! par
tally masticated flowers that bloom
only at that time.

MAMMOTH'S END Is
REVEALED BY ICE
BODY HAS BEEN HELD IN
TACT IN GLACIER FOR so
THOUSAND YEARS.

One day in August, about the mid
die of the last glacial age, or some
where in the neighborhood Of fifty
thousand years before Christ, a giant
mammoth wandering along the chilly
banks of the Beresovka river, in north
eastern Siberia, feasted sumptuously
upon the hardy vegetation that strug-
gled for existence in those bleak pri-
meval times, says the Washington
Star.
Before the meal had been digested,
however, the unfortunate beast Stun
bled head-long into a yawning ice
crevice and died AS result science
has determined to within two weeks
of the time of the year that primitive
tragedy was enacted. Through all the
dazzling span of centuries the victim
remained intact, from the hair upon
its body to the undigested dinner in
its stomach,
An Intriguing" Exhibit.
Part of the hair muscular tissues,
fat, blood and stomach contents OF
what scientists have come to call the
Beresovka mammoth" represent one
of the most intriguing exhibits in the
National Museum. They occupy an
important place in the department OF
paleontology and form one OF the
few unspoiled specimens OF prehls-
toric animal life.
The Beresovka mammoth lay bur
led in its icy tomb through the cen
.turies until nature began undoing the
havoc she wrought ages ago Heat
and erosion melted away the ice until,
a few years ago, a party OF Russian
explorers who were camping along
the Beresovka river happened upon
evidence that told them that remains
OF an extinct brute were nearby. Dig

Government Makes Big
Reduction in Force
Working Personnel Has Been Gu
Considerable Since Armistice.


Considerable Since Armistce.
Checking up his pay rolls, Uncle
Sam has found that he has 548,53l
employees to conduct his governmental
affairs. These are civilian employees,
exclusive of the army and navy.
When the armistice was signed,
bringing to an end the world war,
there were o17,760 employees on the
pay rolls of the United States govern
ment That was in 1918. Since that
time there has been gradual reduc-
ton. By the end of 1920 the force
had been reduced to 691, ITO. In 1921
there were 597, 482, and in December,
1922, the force had been cut down to
560,863 employees.
During this time, while Uncle Sam
was letting his employees go slngly
and in patches of few hundred, the
postoffice department found that ITS
business was increasing so rapidly
that more men and women had to be
hired. In 1916 there were 250885 mer
and women handling the mails of the
country, in 1923 the number is Z09,-
822.

Colosso was not a fighting man

| thousand seals were sold in 1907
Over three hundred eighty-four mil
lion seals were sold in 1922.
The design of the seal is different
each year, and each seal is imprinted
with the year. The 1928 seal was de-
signed by Rudolph Rusicka, a Bo-
hemian by birth, and an artist of in
ternatiOnal reputation. The artist s
task is no easy one, as he must draw
design on the actual area of the
seal, and then the proper colors must
be experimental upon and the inks
to be used must be selected. The de-
sign must not only be an attractive
one, but must combine the Christ
mas spirit with the thought of
the work carried out by the anti
tuberculosis movement. Mr. Rusicka
has pictured a little girl sitting be-
fore a fireplace and seeing a vision
of Santa Claus in the flames. The
hearth is the shrine around which
the home life centers, so we have
here the thought of the protection of
the home and the child from the

cross with its message of health for
all, and between the crosses is the
greeting, Merry Christmas 1929.
Friends of the Anti-Tuberculosis
association are advised to make sure
when they buy Christmas seals that
they are buying the tuberculosis seal
described above, and that they are
getting the seals of this years issue.

An article by Jacob Riis in the Out

of Christmas seals in Denmark for
the support of children's hospital,
stimulated the first sale of Christmas
seals in this country sixteen years
ago. Miss Emily p BisseI of Will
mington, Delaware, sold and raised
$1,000 to pay on tuberculosis hos
pital in her country. The following
year the national Red Cross took up
the sale, and the Christmas seal was
issued under their auspices and with
their imprint until 1919, and the
funds were used by the National
tuberculosis association. Since 1919
the Christmas seal has born the i'm
