SHIP FOUND ON BIG ICEBERG
Captain of Steamer Sights Large Mass
of Ice Carrying Three-Masted
Schooner.

For centuries mystery ships have
sailed the seas, guided only by the
winds of chance. One of them was
found by a steamer captain rounding
the Horn recently. While cropping MS
way into the open, a gigantic mass of
ice carrying a large three-masted
schooner, with its boats still in the
cIefts, was sighted. Efforts were made
to find the survivors, but no trace Of
them was discovered. Another sea
tragedy was added 70 tie already long
list of those as yet unsolved when a
Greenland whaler came upon a strange
looking derelict, battered and weather
worn, apparently built in the last CEN
fury and ice-bound for years. A hoard
ing crew found in the cabin the body
of a young woman, preserved by the
Arctic frosts. Near a long-dead fire
was the remains Of a young man still
holding a flint and steel.-Pepular Me

Jim smiled his slow patient smile.
"We do break the union rules, !

seems to be more to do than we can
get done during school hours"
"What we came for, Mr.. Irwin, is
to object to the way the teachin's
being done-corn and wheat, and hogs
and the like, instead of the learnin'
schools was made to teach. / can see
an the whole district can see that It's
easier for a man that's been a farm

than the learnin' schools Vas set up
to teach; but if so be he hasn't the
book education to do the right thing,
we think he should get out and give
a real teacher a chance"
"What am 1 neglecting?" asked Jim
mildly.
Mrs. Bonner seemed unprepared for
the question, and sat for an instant
mute. Mrs. Peterson ~interposed her
attack while Mrs. Bonner might be re-
covering her wind.
"We people that have had a hard
time" she said in a precise way which
seemed to show that she knew exactly
what she wanted, don't want our
children taught about nothing but
work. We want our children to learn

after a while to the university"

Odd Musical instruments.

The ordinary handsaw has appeared
as a musical instrument. One seeker
after novelties uses a saw as a violin.
After long experience and untirlng
practice he has actually succeeded in
getting an agreeable music from the
tool.
He holds the saw handle between
his legs, holds the tip of the saw IN
one hand, and works the usual violin
bow with the other. The vibrating
steel blade emits soft, appealing notes,
the pitch Of which is varied by chang
ing the curvature of the blade. All
sorts of queer effects can be got by
adept manipulation Of the blade.
Sometimes the music resembles the
human voice; again it has the weird
wall Of the Hawaiian ukulele.

and Mrs. Bronson, after gazing about
at the typewriter, the h~ecktograph,
the exhibits of weed seeds, the Dab

problems on the board.

CHAPTER VIII

Jennie Arranges a Christmas Party
Miss Jennie Woodruff of the Wood
ruff district was a sensible country
girl. Being sensible. she tried te
avoid uppishness. But she did fee
some little sense Of increased impor
lance as she drove her fathers little
runabout over the smooth earth roads
in the crisp December weather, just
before Christmas. The weather itself
was stimulating, and In the little car,
visiting the one hundred or more rural
schools SOOn to come under her super
vision, she rather fancied the picture
of herself, clothed in more or less au-
thority and queening it over her little
army of teachers.
Mr.. Haakon Peterson was phlegmat-
ically conscious that she made rather
an agreeable picture, as she stopped
her car alongside his top buggy to talk
with him. She had bright blue eyes,
fluffy brown hair, a complexion
whipped pink by the breeze, and she
smiled at him ingratiatingly.
Don't you think father is lovely?'
said she. HE is going to let me use
the runabout when visit the schools
"That will be good" said Haakon.
1T will save you lots Of time. | hope
you make the county pay for the gaso-
line"
Il haven't thought about that" said
Jennie. "Everybody's been so nice to
mel want to give as well as receive"
"Why," said Haakon. you will yust
begin to receive when your salary be-
gins in january"
ooh, mol" said Jennie. 1--WE re-
ceived much more than that now! You
don't know how proud | feel. SO many
nice men | never knew before, and all
my old friends like you working for
me in the convention and at the polls,
just as if l amounted to something"
"And you don't know how proud |
feel,' said Haakon, ito have in county
office a little girl l used to hold on my

Of his ascent to %affiuence. A mild
spoken, %soft-voiced Scandinavian, he
was quite completely Americanized,
and his influence was always worth
fifty to sixty Scandinavian votes in
county election. He was a good
party man and conscious Of being en-
titled to his voice in party matters.
This seemed to him an opportunity for
exerting a bit Of political influence.
"Yennie," said he, this man Vim
Irwin needs to be lined up"
LINED up! What do you mean?'
1.-The way he Is doing in the
school," said Haakon, sis all wrong.
If you can't line him up, he will make
YOU trouble. We must look ahead.
Everybody has his friends, and Vim
has his friends. If you lave
trouble with him, his friends will be
against you when we want to NOM
mate you for a second term. The
county is getting close. If we go to
convention without your home delega-
ton 1t would weaken you, and if we
dominate you. every piece of trouble
ike this cuts down your vote. You
ought to line him up and have him do
But he is so funny" said Jennie.
"He likes you" said Haakon. You
line him up"
