This Turk-who, incidently, was one
OF the finest looking chaps l ever
saw, and man of education-wel-
coined me with open arms. First of

so enthusiastic about the gyrations

folks, large and small. We had a lot
of funny things to eat, but there was
one dish that really appealed to me.
They called it "Salada" and l ate of
it in such copious portions that my
friend, the Turk, insisted on showing
me how it was made. l have made
it many times since for my own
pleasure, at least-and most folk who
try it once will try it again.
1t is a salad of ripe tomatoes. Gu

is that you must not slice them up

them into chunks with chopping

as large as the end of your thumb.

so l guess l will put these away and
get some new ones"
So the Snoopwiggy scraped all the
eggs into the fire and got six new
ones but these all burst open too.
This will never do the Snoop-
wiggy said. They make the shells
much too thin"
Finally after he had hunted all
around he found six nice shiny eggs.
The Snoopwiggy thumped them and
| they seemed a lot harder than the
others. So the Snoopwiggy put these
in the skillet with a lot of butter
and stirred them around long time.
These nice shiny eggs did not crack
open like the others had done, cause
these were china eggs with which old
Mister Hokus, the magician April
fooled his hens. When the Snoop-
wiggy thought the china eggs had
cooked long enough, he put them in
saucer and put salt and pepper and
sugar on them.
Dinners ready he called to the
magician. Just as soon as the ma
wiggy had cooked he said: My
goodness how do you expect me to
eat that kind of dinner?"
The Snoopwiggy just shuffled his
feet because he didn't know what to
say. TN go back and read my Sun
day paper until you cook me some
thing a lot better than glass eggs
Dear me-" the Snoopwiggy said as
he sat down and crossed his four legs,
Il wish he would magic nice dinner,
| because he is going to be real. real
| hungry before | try to cook again"
And leaning back against the wall
the Snoopwiggy was soon fast asleep.

ORDER RESTORED

Paris, Jan. 16.-Order has been
restored at Bochum in the newly oc-
cupied Ruhr district where a clash
occurred between German demon
strators and the French troops of
occupation last night, it was official
ly announced this afternoon.
The default, it was explained by
Louis Barthou, president of the
commission, resulted from the refus-
al of the German government had
to make delivery in kind while the
French were in the Ruhr.
The French high commissioners
were anxious to obtain the vote of
the reparations commission decfar-
ing this default as an authorization
of the French policy of acquisitions
which it is believed will be in force
Immediately.
The reparations commission was in
session less than a half hour.
The hurried decision followed Ger
many's~ refusal to make any more
deliveries in kind. including coal,
wood, dyes, and building materials
so long as the French remained in
the Ruhr.
President Barthou said Germany's
refusal was IAN open defiance of
the allies" which must be met with
instant action.
The American representative, Roll
and w. Boyden and Col. James A.
Logan, were present but had nothing
to say.

OLD STATE
CLOCK STOPS

On the eve of the opening of the
North Dakota legislative session q
clock which saw service in the terri
torial assembly Of 1873 at Bismarck
stopped dead, perhaps never to run
again. This famous old clock which
has for many years .rerOsed IN the
office of DR.. Melvin r. Gilmore,
curator Of the North Dakota o.aue
Historical Society, was wall fixture
and was in perfect running order be-
fore the opening of the legislative
session this year. It had kept good
time and was part of the office
equipment.
Whether or not the clock had ex-
pired from old age or has merely
need for specialist to make a COM
plete diagnosis of its machinery to
set it once more on the road to con.
valescence, DR.. Gilmore has been un-
able to say. It is expected that the
clock will be sent to a watchmaker's
hospital within few days to receive
treatment.
The clock in question is said to
have hung on the walls of the terri
torial council for many years. The
council or assembly corresponds 70
the present state senate. The donor
of the timepiece to the state histori-
cal society, General E. A. Williams
Of bismarck, is authority for the
statement that the clock served time
in the territorial council chamber as
late as 1878 and how early, no one
knows.

CLOSING OF!
DEER SEASON
Is PROPOSED
Bill Introduced in State SEN
ate Provides no Definite
Time of Reopening
COULD USE A DOG

Closing of the deer law. with no
specific time for reopening, permits
sion to use dogs in retrieving dead
or wounded game, and Qualification
of the meaning of the present sta
tutes as well as elimination of con.
flicts in the present game laws are
important points contained in S. b.
q introduced by Senator Ployhar of
Valley City at the request of sports
men of the State.
The measure in it's various amend
ments provides the following chan
ges:
/. The old law provides for tho
appointment of three men as mem.
bers of the game and fish board, and
a game and fish commission as a
member of the board. The new mea-
sure would provide for the same ap-
pointments but makes the game and
fish commissioner subordinate to
the orders of the board itself and not
as a member of the board.
2. Another section raises the sal
airy of the chief game wardens (two)
from $1,000 to $4,000 per year, but
requires that they devote their en-
tire time to the duties of their Of
flee. The measure also cites the du-
ties and the powers.
3. Another section provides the
duties of the game and fish board
reducing the matter in three differ
ent laws to one co-ordinated para
graph.
a. I'm 1915 the state game laws
provided for deputies in each of the
then IL judicial districts of the state.
In 1917 the state was redistricted
and six judicial district created. A
question arose as to the humber of
district deputy game wardens allow
ed-Whether there be twelve or six
The new measure provides for four
teen to be named two to each district
and one extra in the sixth and fifth
districts, big districts-but available
for service any place in the state.
3. Provides that members of the
board, and all employees shall file
bonds under the state bonding de-
partment instead of private.
6. The new measure also provides
for the use of dogs-not in actual
hunting of prairie chicken grouse
or ducks, providing in fact penal
ties for use of dogs ranging the field
but for retrieving purposes. Sports
men have long argued, it is claimed
that double the number of chickens
are killed than are POUNDS or bag
ged. Under this proposed amendment
hunter may use a dog for retriev-
ing dead or wounded game. The old
law prevented even the use of span
lels in retrieving ducks.
T. Another provision makes it un-
lawful for hunter to enter a field
of standing grain under any pre-,
tense, whatsoever, even though the
law permits the pursuit of wounded
game on to posted territory.
8. Closes the season on door in
definitely. No opening season is set,
the matter being left to the discre-
ton of future legislative assemblies.
9. Clarifies the law as to who
shall sell seized game, gunds, prop
erty, etc, and who shall keep the
records of such sale-the record be-
ing invested in the Game Board 81
10. Repeats all of the 1921 game
laws, the point being raised that the
game department bill of 1921 was
passed by the senate, amended in
the house and the changes not rati-
fled by the senate, the entire meas
ure thus being invalidated.

Mrs. Pinchot Going to Europe
Following Political Faux Pas

Tutors were secured and the self-gov-
erning system installed. Eight other
pupils. chosen for their average high
mentality were enrolled. The Pin
chot dogs, goldfish, pet cat or two
and other favorites of the boys were
admitted without question.
Just as the city had dismissed the
matter, stories Of disagreement be-
tween Mrs. Pinchot and the tutors
were circulated. Neighbors had COM
planned OF the presence of the animals.
Now comes the announcement that the
school has been closed.
Her Letter Boomerang.
Mrs. Pinchot's political activities
have reached a climax in the last week
or two. The publication of her letter
saying the governor favored Sunday
fishing was followed by the killing of a
bill authorizing it i. committee. Its
sponsor says the vets combined with
the blue law advoca ties to smother it in
revenge for the passage of the new
state enforcement law. Then the
monthly meeting OF the state council
OF Republican women broke UP in q
row when Mrs. Pinchot. after threat
ening to withdraw il her wishes were
not obeyed, finally did leave the room
before the session concludede.
This later council was organized by
Mrs. Pinchot TO uphold the hands

convention. Mrs. Pinchot rather in
dignantly denied this allegation. Later
dissension sprang up within the or
ganization over the propriety of a
statement issued by the president. Mrs.

members OF the House to come across
on pledges they had made the COVER
nor of their support for his prohibit
ton measure.
Board Has Stormy Meeting.
The row which this statement
caused in the Legislature was nothing
to what happened Wien the board of
directors of the council met. Atten-
ton was called to the fact that no
member was permitted to speak for
the organization except with the spe-
cific approval of the directors.
There was serious consideration of
removing Mrs. Martin from office.
Mrs. Pinchot demanded that the OK
cess of ZEAL be overlooked in view
Of the fact that "thc action was in
harmony with the real principals of
the organization" The dispute be-
came so warm that Mrs. P.nchot fl
nally left the meeting. although Mrs.
Martin was not removed.

going overseas until after the Legis-
lature adjourns emphasizes her aban-
donment of the fight she had promised
to make to compel equal representa-
