 From the time they leave school at the age Of F or 13, the poor chil- dren of Connemara have their thots fixed on America, and how they can get away to it." he declared.

COYOTES REVEAL COOPERATION
 STALKING ELUSIVE PHEASANT

WALLA WALLA, July II. P,- That coyotes understand the rudi- ments of cooperation is indicated bv a story told by Thomas Speer, far. mer on Mill Creek, near here.
 A coyote attracted his attention as he was blowing, Speer said. It paced to and fro, like sentry on guard duty. A ChineAa pheasant rooster a short distance beyond was being forced slowly away from the animal since with each round trip the cov- ote came little closer to the fowls position. Then, beyond the bird, a second coyote was discerned, crouch ed, waiting. Presently the waiting coyote became impatient, and leap ed at the pheasant, missing it.
 The bird flew away, and the two coyotes departed together.
