A few days ago representa-.

other things, that while all trav-

ahead of all former years, the
increase is far lower, proportion

not be available until the end of

judging from the far larger num-

AS Told by

II. c. OF L. HAD DROPPED

A s heard the tale it had to do
with small community where
the railroad ran through the main
street and on either side of the
track stood a short order restaurant
owned and operated by colored man.
One night the official bad man Of the
vicinity came lurching into one Of
these rival establishments. 1t immedi-
ately was apparent to the apprehen-
sive eye of the proprietor that the VS.
itor was looking for trouble.
While the uneasy negro made pre-
tense at being glad to see him the
bully Topped his long frame into a
chair and demanded:
Niger, have you got nice tender
sirloin steak here?"
'Yas. suhw
"All right, then; you cook 1t fur me
and don't you cook it too long else I'll
cook you awhile myself. And along
with it you better bring me some fried
onions and fried potatoes and some
celery and mess of hot biscuits and
green peas and roasting ears and pie
and coffee and anything else tasty that
you've got around this dump. Now
Jump before start jumpin' YOU"
The black man jumped. In miracu-
lousy short time, considering the mag
nitude of the order, he staggered in
from his cubbyhole of kitchen at the
rear bearing a waiter tray piled high
10 he =
food in half moon effect before his
patron and then f1uttered back a few
PAGES hoping for the best, yet dreading
the worst.
When the bad man had eaten he
leaned back in his chair, drew a spring
back dirk knife out of his pocket,
tipped its five-inch blade out with a
nudge of practiced thumb and
leisurely picked his teeth with it's
needlelike point. His caterer watched
him as a fascinated bird watches a
coiled serpent.
Suddenly he spoke and the negro
jumped.

CHE WHY of
SUPERSTITIONS
By H. IRVING KING
STIRRING TO THE RIGHT

IF VOC want to have your bread
L or cake come out of the oven light
always stir the dough from left to
right-that is "clockwise" or with
the sum-" Also in freezing ice cream
or churning milk with a crank churn,
always turn from left to right.
This superstition is a remnant Of
sun worship and the movement from
left to right is what is called the
Ceremonial circuit" Not only in STIR
ring cake but in dealing cards do we
preserve the Ceremonial circuit"
though It would seem much more nat
ural to deal the other way. But the
Ceremonial circuit" is the path in
which the sun god moves and the d.
rection in which those professions Of
priests and people, his yotaries,
moved when celebrating his rites,
either at Heliopolis or Stonehenge.
Stirring from left to right is merely
an unconscious, inherited form of
invoking the sun god to see that your
cake, or your game of bridge, comes
out In a satisfactory manner.

How 1t Started
EATING A "DRUMsTIcK"
WHEN chicken is being served an,

By JEAN NEWTON

WHEN chicken is being served and
w there is a small boy at the table
there is almost certain to be a de-
mand for the "drumstick" If he Is
a polite little boy he waits. of course,
to be consulted. or takes what is given
to him. But that the drumstick is
the universal preference in matters
of poultry, of the small boy, is well
known.
To understand the use of this term
TO describe thu lower leg joint or
poultry, we have but to see the old
type of contrapdon used for beating
a drum. This was a stick with a ball
like end with which the drum was
STRUCK Although in most instances
we see the tapering sticks used In
performance today, the ball end type
is by no means obsolete. And II Is
because of its similarity in shape to
the joint with its stick-iike bone on
which the meat broadens out to a
heavily rounded end. that the drum
stick has bequeathed its name to the
parlance of the table.

So he set to work. And, biting off

Then he looked at himself in pool.

such remarks. I'm willing enough to
let Leaper the Locust do the honors.
And unless I'm much mistaken he's
trembling in his shoes this very mo-

Then the field people would shake
their heads and say that they didn't
understand. Wasn't everybody glad
to have company once in while?
And wouldn't it be pleasure to talk
with strangers who came from some
far-off place, and ask them how the
crops were where they lived. and what
the weather was?
