In No Hurry to Buy

What would the Broadway motor
salesman do with this case, which is
typical of the inertia that he would en-
counter almost every day in the
Orient? WoodhLH Hay asks, in Asia
Magazine.
A friend of mine was trying to sell
a motorcar to an Indian in Delhi. The
latter gave many excuses for not pur-
chasing, but in reality he was merely
maintaining an attitude of "watchful
waiting" The price had been reduced
already several times. The salesman
assured him that rock bottom had been
reached. If not, no further reduction
would be made for at least year. The
Indian at once replied, with a CLEAN
of triumph, as If he had tricked his
adversary into disclosing secret intel
ligence: "Ah, in that case shall wait
until then! There is plenty of time p

Fish Taken in SUarn,s

'Shoveling fish from the river is the
event of the winter for the farmers
close to the Cowlitz river, Washing
ton. When the smelt start running,
farmers shovel them up by the scoop
ful, filing barrels and boxes; women
use lace curtain nets at the end Of
Portiere poles; boys and girls take
fathers auto cover for a seine, and
the professional fisher employs his
linen thread nets. These fish, about
seven to nine inches long, run in
schools, often filling the river from
bank to bank. They go up stream to
spawn, after which the smelt return
to the ocean and, like the fur seal.
spend a long period far from human
eyes. The food value of the smelt is
what makes it SO attractive, being
canned in glass jars, picked in spices,
sailed and dried.

SCOTS Explosipe Pouer

We scarcely think of SCOT as an ex-
plosive yet it is now being used as
such, and SCOT cartridges will blast
away coal or rock quite as effectively
as dynamite, says Popular Science
Monthly.
OF course, the SCOT has to be pre-
pared for its new purpose, and this Is
done by soaking it in liquid oxygen.
The finely divided carbon of which
the SCOT is made up absOrbs large
amounts of oxygen, and the cartridge
explodes owing to the instantaneous
combustion of the carbon In contact
with the oxygen.
The advantages of the new explo-
sive are many. 1t can be made at the
spot where 1t is to be used, and is per-
fectly safe till the liquid oxygen is
poured into the hole where the SCOT
cartridge has been placed. No poison
Gus gases are set free by the explo-
sion, and if the cartridge fails to ex-
plode it ceases to be source Of dan
ger in about twenty minutes, when the
oxygen has all evaporated and the
cartridge is merely SCOT.

AMERICAN
LEGION
CCopy for This Department Supplied by the
COLORADO'S TYPE
OF SOLDIER BOYS

John Charles Vivian, attorney of
Golden, Colo, now commander of the
Colorado department of the American
Legion, got tired of governmental red
tape during the war. He decided to
do little unraveling himself. He had
been under consideration for a COM
mission as major In the Judge advo-
Gates department. But the matter
hung fire. The commission did not
come.
So one day he enlisted as a private
in the marines. On the same day that
he closed up his law books, his young
er brother, Chauncey H. Vivian, then
editor of the Boulder (Colo.) News
Herald, dropped the editorial shears,
jabbed the brush into the paste-pot
and enlisted also-as a private in the
marines.
The brothers served together, the
younger brother as a private In the
squad of which the older was corporal.

Terrible Bluff

Sophie Kerr, the novelist, said TO a
reporter as she boarded the Maure-

write for arts sake give me pain"
Then, with a rather bitter laugh
she went on:
"These art-for-art's writer's are
terrible bluffs as a rule. One of them,
free verse poetess, gave reception
the other day. At the height of the
reception, while she was surrounded
by the most important of her guests,
a pretty little boy in velvet suit came
up and said TO her in loud voice:
Miss Blank, think you are won

Everybody laughed and applauded,
and the poetess kissed the pretty little
boy and asked:

viii Seek Amendment
to COMPENSATION Act

adjusted compensation act is unjust
which requires a wife, child or parent
Of a decess ed veteran to show Deepen
dency at the time of the veterans
death in order to collect the compen-
sation In case the soldier had not filed
application for insurance, officials of
the Wisconsin department of the Amer
lean Legion will launch campaign to
have the law amended.
Under the present law, II veteran
dies before filing a claim for insur-
ance, only a wife, child or parent can
collect in the order named and the
claimants are required to show that
they were dependent upon the veteran
at the time of his death. Efforts will
be made to have the law changed so
that the three classes of claimants can
collect regardless Of dependency.

HOPI INDIANS BOW
AT VENUS SHRINE
Idol Called "TaIGtun1si, Ell
der Sister of the Dauun."

Venus, goddess Of the ancient Ro-
mans, is venerated also by the modern
Hopl Indians Of the American South
west, though in guise that would
hardly be recognized by her classic vo-
tarles. DIR. j. Walter Fewkes, chief
OF the bureau of American ethnologv.
tells OF this interesting cult in his ac-
count of the use of idols in Hopi wor-
snip, in the forthcoming annual report
or the Smithsonian institute at Wash
ington.
She is known to the Indians as Tala-
tumsi, the Elder Sister of the Dawn.
Her image, rudely carved of wood, and
wrapped in ceremonial blanket, is en-
shrined in hollowed-out boulder with
fiat rock, sealed in with clay for a
door. This door is removed in No
Vember every fourth year, when the
IDOL is taken out and carried to the
top of the mesa and rites performed
near 1T. The image is regarded with
special reverence, and except for the
quadrennial service, is kept securely
sealed in it's shrine.
The image of Talatumsi is only one
Of the many sacred objects of the
Hopi. Unlike the Indians of the east
ern United States, who made few
Images, these natives of the desert
make and reverence numerous idols,
though they do not regard them as
gods but only as images of the gods
above the cloud or under the earth.
Some of the idols are simple natural
objects, like pieces of petrified log or
meteoric stones; others are more or
less deliberately carved animal or hui
man figures Of wood or stone. Many
Of the stone images are very old, and
are held In especial awe.
Doctor Fewkes is of the opinion that
the custom of carving was not much
developed until after the coming Of
the Spanish padres. Though the In
dams declined to be converted, they
adopted the idea of having statues In
their own holy. places, in addition to
the simpler natural objects they had
revered before that time.
Many of the images are used by the
shamans, or medicine men, in exorcis-
ing disease. One type of IDOL, called
a "heart twister," is used when the
trouble is supposed to be located in
the heart. Most of the heart twisters
are made of stone or wood, deeply
carved in spiral pattern, but there
is at least one in use among the Hopi
that is made of a fossil sea SHE'LL

Nothing Gentle About
Practice of Ju-Jutsu

Ju-Jutsu originated several hundred
years ago, before the time of gunpow-
der, and It's purpose was the elimi-
nation of an opponent AS it was con-
sldered to be used only in a deadly
combat, there were no fouls. Every
thing went with a view to removing
the danger to ones life, no matter
what position or predicament he be in
The idea was not to lay an opponent
on the mat, but to disable him or kill
him as the circumstances required
Later, when the use of gunpowder
made hand-to-hand fighting in battle
improbable, Ju-jutsu lapsed into OBJ
hvion for some years, from which it
was finally dragged, dressed up. re-
paired and altered to suit the require
ments of the Japanese aristocracy.
Ju-jutsu can be roughly divided into
three classes. First, tricks for hold
ing; second, tricks for throwing; and
third, tricks for disabling or killing an
enemy by means of blows or kicks.
The latter class is the real essence of
the art. 1t more neSrly approximates
the old art than either of the other
two branches. The first two, as taught
today, do not differ greatly from the
science as applied to catch-as-catch
can work.
Examples: Holding tricks: Our
hammer-lock similar to one of their
holding tricks. Front strangle is our
head chancery slipped down to press
on the Adams apple.
Throwing holds: Our flying mare
varied in three ways and called some
thing like "shoenage." Applied from
the side in fash without drawing the
arm over the shoulder as in the flying
mare, the cleverest wrestler will al
most always be caught.
Striking tricks: Tsurigume: Knee
to opponents crotch. Some other darn
fool word covers a jab with the stiff
fened fingers to the Adams apple

battling neck anad neck in the

like the Clevelanders are playing a
little over their heads. The Phila-
