Annual Oyster Feast
Held by English Town

The oyster feast at Colchester, Eng
land, which Is held on October 81, dates
back centuries and centuries, in fact,
to the time of the ancient Britons.
Julius Caesar, after his conquest of
the eastern counties of England,
founded town on the site of the
present Colchester, and the export of
oysters to Rome became the chief in
dustry. During the reign of Richard
(119S), the monarch granted char
ter to the citizens giving them the sole
right for oyster fishing off large part
OF the coast. In order to keep the
size of the oysters up to standard,
silver oyster was cast, which now re-
poses in the town hall, and it is illegal
to sell them smaller than the model.
AS the fame of Colchester's oysters
spread, it became customary to invite
well-known people from all over the
country. The ceremony takes place at
the town hall, at the expense Of the
mayor. The duke of York was the
guest of honor last year, which wit
messed an epoch-making event. For
the first time in Colchesters history
the feast was presided over by lady,
for the city's civic head was
mayoress.

Science WiH Reveal
Treasures of Earth

The possibility of finding gold in the
earth by wireless Is foreshadowed by
Sir Robert N. Kotze, the well-known
mining engineer.
Sir Robert declares that In the fu-
ture-say, 100 or 2GO years hence-the
science of geology will reveal the geoI-
ogy OF the earth to depth of mile.
He believes that methods will be de-
vised whereby biologists will be able
to peep into the crust Of the earth.
They had already succeeded In trans
hitting speech underground by wire
less, which meant that when wireless
waves were used the crust of the
earth was transparent.
Sir Robert suggests that an appa-
ratus using such waves might be de-
vised which could see into the earth,
and what would be Opaque would be
ore deposits, and with a refinement Of
this principle the future geological
prospector could determine the nature
and the size of the deposits.-London

CHOOSING A WIFE

THERE was an article in the paper
1 this evening on Choosing Wife
l didn't read it, for / am not looking
for wife, being already happily
stocked up for life hope, but 1 have
good many ideas on the subject If
should ever get to the point of need.
If you buy a suit Of clothes that
doesn't fit or that you don't like, you
can give 1t to the janitor, or donate it
to the missionary society to go into
the barrel that the ladies Of the church
are getting ready to send away at
Christmas time, or sell 1t at the annual
sorority rummage sale. An unsatisfac-
tory automobile, or house dog can be
disposed of. A wife, even with our
present divorce laws, is rather a per-
manent possession and so should be
chosen carefully.
My grandmother used to say when
giving advice to her grandsons which
they seldom asked for and never took,
that before the negotiations were
actually completed in possessing one
self Of wife, it was wisest to see all
the faults and weaknesses possible.
After marriage one should close his
eyes and be blind to anything that
suggested imperfection.
Quite the opposite is frequently the
case. One uses his head when he buys
horse or a motor car. He wants to
know something Of the pedigree of the
horse or the internal construction Of
the car; he isn't carried away by the
results of careful currying on the one
hand or skillful painting on the other.
With wife it is too often a matter
Of sentiment or emotion, of passing
fancy for an attractive exterior-for
careful currying and skillful painting
as it were. He doesn't stop to con-
slider that it is going to be difficult to
dispose Of her if she proves unsatis-
factory-when spavins develop or the
coat grows rough, or the paint scales.
Age may make a difference.
Men and women don't change much
excepting in appearance.

To SaUe Would.Be Suicides

In Berlin the number Of suicides has
become so alarming that proposal
has been made to create special relief
stations where persons contemplating
self-destruction might go and receive
the help they need The causes Of
suicide are most often lack of money,
illness, neurasthenia and unrequited
or INSTRUCTED love. Could the suffer-
ers receive good advice, a little money
or the Intervention of the proper per-
son it is thought their intention might
be shaken and their lives saved. Pas
tors, laic confessors, psychanalysts and
regular physicians might be drafted
into service The question remains
whether intending suicides could be In
duced to have recourse to such life
saving stations.

THE FOG HORNS

Far away from many of the worlds

which it is near, is a Jagged. rocky.
wild coast. Its rocks have never been
taught to stand in regular, straight
lines and Nature, busy with so many
things has let them have their own
way. Nature is an indulgent mother.
She let's so many of her children do
as they choose, the winds, the ex-
citable snowfakes, the fogs, the
rains, the sleet storms.
SO have the rocks behaved as they
Schose, standing here and standing
there. Rough edges have not been
smoothed. Those that wanted to lie
down in the water and only be noticed
when lighthouses or buoys gave warn
ing, have been given their way. Some
have gone far out into the water,
eager, it would seem, to find out
what lay beyond, to feel the wilder
ocean outside the coves and bays and
harbors.
The ocean has sprayed over them.
washing them with her cold salty,
foamy breakers Sometimes she has
dashed so hard over them that other,
lesser objects could not have stood
her terrible ways.
But the rocks have loved all this.
They have stood as firmly as ever,
answering the oceans roarings With
echoes and with shouts.
"Come along" they have shouted.
Come along and dash over us. Hurry,
hurry, rush and tumble and fall with
your great mighty tumbles old ocean.
We enter into the spirit of your game.
We may stand still on quiet, MINDLESS
days and let your waters fall softly
over us, or playfully into our caves
and hollows and caverns. We may let
the sun shine down on those Of us
that stay above the water, or we may
let the blue green OF your deep love-
liness always keep us covered where
we lie under your surface"
Many has been the terrible storm
the rocks have seen and been a part
of too, for that matter. Many has been
the lonely wreck Of a vessel they have
witnessed And when morning has
come-or calm has come again-they
have shown neither by sign nor sound
that they had ever been anything
other than beautiful and serene.
But greater than the storms, more
powerful at any rate, have been the
fogs.
They have come up when storms
were raging and the sea has quoted

down to listen to the strange silence
of the fog as it took them in it's great,
thick blanket.
SNOW" the fog has said, "you can't
see anything. You can't see outside
my blanket, can your
And the rocks have stood up in the
thick, thick greyness and have uttered
not single word.
The ocean has washed over them
and the ocean could only feel the
rocks and the rocks could only feel
the ocean. They could not see each
other.
But the buoys have rocked a little
and sung in their changing, bell-like
way, steadily, steadily, steadily:
Beware. Clang- clang. Beware.
Clang-clang. The rocks are here. Be
ware. Clang-clang"
And the lighthouses, hidden in the
fog's great blanket have doomed the
fog horns
"Boom-boom," the foghorns have
shouted in their low, deep, muffled
voices. But their voices have risen
above and through the fog and have
sent their blessed warnings to fish
ing schooners, vessels, big boats, little
boats.
"Boom-b-o-o-m, fog, fog, fog,
fog, fog,-fog, fog-fog, f-o-g,f-o-g. Thick,
thick, thick, fog, fog, fog"
Strangers coming to live along the
coast for day or so or month or
so have thought the foghorns forlorn-
sounding horns. Depressing they have
called them.
But the people who live along the
coast take new hope in their hearts
as the foghorns boom forth and their
loneliness and fear of the great fogs
and for those who belong to them who
are out in It's grey thickness is
lightened by the constant booming
and clang-clanginQ For they know
the way of the sea and the way of
the rocks and the way of fogs, and
the foghorns are the great, tireless
hopes and comfort of a coast people.
Deep and strong are the fogs. Peo-
pie cannot see each others houses.
They jump into each other along the
rocky paths, or the rocky streets. The
fogs are so great and so powerful, so
terribly great, so terribly powerful
But the foghorns are the blessed
sounds that give relief to the hearts
of those who live by or on the sea.
