Science Service records that The made the trip to get, to his wedding at the old home stream where he began life as an egg" This aquatic, exploit, we are assured is no mere. fish yarn, but is backed up by scientific records on two conti- nents. According. to the files of the bureau of fisheries, No. 10358 Lelonged to the Oncorhynchus keta, or d0g-salmon family. The Identification tag stamp ed with this number was clamped on his tail last Fourth of July off the north shore of Unga Island, Alaska.

FIGHTS BETWEEN DIVERS
Probably Only One Authentic Case ' a Deep Sea Combat

s.varob successful dramatists have staced thrilling fights between divers n9anv novelist has penned Vlvlo 0e- scrintions of similar encounters to make +bn hearts of his readers beat nttle faster Yet such struggles between real d;yers in the depths of the sea are so rere that it is doubtful if more than one authentic case exists. This historic fight between divers took place at the bottom of the SolenL during the recovery of some or the Iencs from the Royal George. The two olvers' Jones and Girvan, were keen Men' nroud of their skill as submarine work- ers. each a little jealous Of the otner' One day Jones came across a cannon cannon buried in the sand, and, being unaple to deal with it, marked it for future cecasion.
 Divers as a rule are extremely ehlV- .lrous They would scorn to take mean advantage, and they would never think of breaking the rule that what sne finds one salves. Whether Glrvan, aonoinp on the cannon, thought 1t a new find that he was entitled to saiVe, or wbether he deliberately made up ms mind to try. to salve the other divers find, is not known.
 Ail we know is that Jones, who had heen working some little distance away, came on Girvan trying to get out the cannon. Naturally, Jones was indig- nant. and indicated to Girvan by en- erretic dumb show that the latter had no right to deal with the piece.
 Girvan was by no means inclined to relinnuish the cannon, and further Temonstrances were followed up by blows. The divers began a rOugh-and- tumble fight at the bottom of the sea, striking at each other savagely with fheir fists. They were by no means equally matched, foE Jones was much +he smaller man of the two. Realizing that the encounter might cost him his life, he took the first opportunity ot trying to get to the surface.
 Reaching the shot rope, he went up it about five or six feet, closely pursued by Girvan, who, grabbing his legs, dld his utmost to pull him down again. The divers fought desperately Tn their rage Jones to get away from those cluth- ing hands that gripped his le~s; Glrvan to drag him to the sea bed agaln--and that dramatic fight reached its climax in the greatest utSdSlcE IudI CuA OAOA take a diver. The glass of Girvan's helmet was smashed by blow, and as the water swept in, it seemed that his end was nigh.
 Luckily, however, the men on the surface, unable to explain the violent agitation of the lines, and feeling that something serious must be wrong, ! dragged both men to the top. Girvan's smashed helmet told its own tale and set them. working fratically to pull him round. He was at his last gasp. Another minute and they would have been too late. He was removed to a hospital, where his splendid physique, coupled with excellent nursing, enabled him to pull round.
 3 Those two divers who fought that strange fight at the bottom of the Solent came to the conclusion that it did not pay for divers to disagree, so they end cd their differences by becoming the stanchest of friends.-David Masters in the Saturday Evening Post.

OCTOPUS A COAL HEAVIER
 Natives Of Crete Put MoIIusk To Work In Salvage Operations

During the war large deposits of coal, thrown over from the various warships which were centered about the island of Crete, accumulated at the bottom of the sea; but not being mechanically minded, and being devoid of dredging apparatus, the Cretans retrieved this treasure by attaching an octopus to a string and lowering the mollusk over the coal dump. As soon as it had at tached itself by its tentacles to it's rest ing place, they gently pulled it up; the adhering lump of coal was then de- tached,, and the octopus dropped in again.
 As in southern Italy. the octopus is used as an article of food, but this is the first instance I have come across of this mollusk being of practical value as coal heaver.-Sir Arthur ShinIev in the London Times.

 Grocers will supply you with CERTO in little brown bottle. Tn the recipe book attached you will find recipes for nearly 100 jams, jellies and marmalades some of which you have never tasted before, like peach, plum or cherry jelly, apricot jam, cherry jam, etc.
 Make a lot of peach jam this year. No home ever has too much of it, with it's varied uses. As a spread on bread, etc, or on ice cream, buildings or fruit salads nothing is more tasty. Children love it. Be sure to get fully-ripened peaches-the kind with the best flavor and follow the recipe carefully. Note how much it makes and how inexpensive it is with CERTO.
