THEATRICAL INVENTION
MAKES HENS LAY

While an ingenius mechanism
known in the New York Hippodrome
as a DINNER" is gradually sproduc-
ing a twilight effect in "Better
Times" the present Hippodrome pro-
duction, mechanism devised by Hip
podrome people and operating on the
same principle is telling the hens it
is time to go to roost down on Double
Duck Farm, operated by Harvey
O'Higgins, the writer, and located
near Martinsville, N. j. One of the
principles of modern poultry culture
is that hens will lay better during the
winter months if through illumina-
tion of the poultry houses they can
be kept in the scratching pen for
about two hours beyond the time of
natural twilight. O'Higgins followed
this principle, but he found that the
sudden switching off of lights left
the hens to find their way to roost in
the dark. :. Recently OHiggins saw
the twilight at the Hippodrome. He
went to r. H. Burnside, general di-
rector Of the big playhouse and now
a twilight of about fifteen minutes
duration puts the hens to bed down
on Double Duck Farm.

the Bergen County League.
Disobey Rules
Basketball like other games is con.
Quoted under prescribed rules, yet
we find players, coaches and, let it
be known, even referees, who are
| willing to set aside the rules as made
up by the National Joint Rules COM
mittee to see the games played as
lesser authorities appreciate them
1t is no secret that some of these
refs are Central Board men and
their ratings come as some of the
best the state can offer.
But there is no reason that those
| who participate in the game should
be affected by the strictness of an Of
fetal. We all desire to play the game
of life on the square. There may be
things which we do not agree with
in our way of thinking, but still we
are not to be pardoned for breaking
a set rule. If we are brought be-
fore a judge and pronounced guilty.
we must answer the crime with just
dues.
If foul is explained in 4 rule book
the referee must pass the judgment
of guilty when it occurs on the
court. So much for that.
Scorers Lax
Score keeping is no easy task.
Why? Keeping a score is book
keeping job and we know many
brilliant man who will handle any
thing but books of accounts The
scorekeeper's work is difficult prop
osition because there is no way of
balancing the books or checking of
accounts after something is written
on the sheet
The score-keepers have difficulties
because one man cannot recognize
the opposing players as readily as
those on his own team.
And then, too the scorers do not
seem to assume the responsibility as
they should. They are not read up
on the rules, and are more, or less in
doubt as to what one foul is and what
the other isn't. This is especially
true in girls rules
The season is near it's close and we
may hope for more efficient work next
| year. There should be no more of

PLEA OF THE PINES
BY CHARLES THOMAS LOGAN


Pm down among the pines again
In Southlands maze of wonders,
Where youths dull sense of justice
failed
TO value them through blunders.
The meaning of creation;
Today my soul is bubbling DER
In fulness of elation
The beauty Of the pine trees green
Is the. emeralds keen rival;
In sunshine it more lovely glows-
'Tis natures true survival.
The wind croons love songs through
its boughs
In bright and stormy weather;
The robins red breast contrasts
Like the lark's upon the heather.
This pine love is for me so much
I'm sure it has Gods feeling
In it's exalted origin,
1t is so soul-appealing.
Thus these forest monarchs growing,
Soothing pine trees verdure clad,
Lift our hearts up to the heavens,
Seeing them we become glad.
Is it wizard nature makes them?
Is it truth that's thus arrayed?
The soft brushes of their branches
s Make us look till we're dismayed.
And their dainty. needles waving
Their soft plumes against the sky.
Paint picture up above us
We can see if we but try.
This expression of Gods loving
Proves the mystery of His heart,
Yielding to us all these splendors,
We should render Him our part.

Nautically speaking, the gross reg
lister tonnage of a vessel is computed
by dividing, by 100 the number of Gu
bic feet in the holds of ship. Thus
the Pinar del Rio has one gross ton
rating for each 100 cubic feet capac-
ity of sugar cargoes. A passengers
allowance of baggage ranges from ten
to twenty cubic feet.
Looking over the edge of the Pail
sades at Cliffside one sees the divi-

The big ships fight the battles, but

Mouths and MatrimonY

Before You marry study the mouth
of YOUR wife to-be! 1t Will tell you
quite a number of interesting things.
Beware of the rosebud mouth! If
n girl has one you may be sure she
is vain, frivolous, and untruthful.
Select wife with n mouth that is
if medium size. with full, well-pro-
portioncd lips which form an almost
straight line when closed. Anyone
with such mouth is almost certain
to be truthful. loyal, firm and just.
Even a large mouth is better than
the rosebud variety. 1t may not
look as pretty, but it denotes good
qualities.
Chns should also be considered
by those about to marry. The best
kind is the square, good sized chin
With an indcntatiOn in the centre.
The girl with such a chin will be
reliable, affectionate, and a good
manager.
Noses are even more important.
Above all things, do not marry a
girl with a snub nose. All the great
women criminals of history have had
snub noses. OF course, if the other
features are good, q snub nose may
mean nothing. But if the rest of the
face is not strong or tender, a snub
nose means trouble.
The best Kind of nose is the one
With a little hump on il; this means
that its owner is ShrCwd and capable.
For beauty it may not compare with
the straight nose, but 1t is the nose
OF wealth.
