Threat That Brought
About Quick Reform

An elderly. dignified Samoan chief
walked into the courtroom in the Ad-
ministration building in Pago Pago.
leading a small. stOckily built native,
and marched up to the desk Of the
American judge.
This man is a member of my fam
ily," said the chief, land he went
obey orders. So l have brought him
to you"
In what way does he fail to obey
orders?" inquired the judge.
HE won't bring in food to me-
The judge eyed the culprit, an un-
usually small man for a Samoan, aud
the latter grinned pleasantly back.
do you belong to the chiefs fam-
ily?" asked the Judge.
yes"
Don't you know your Samoan Gus
tom; that you are expected to do the
work your chief gives you to doY'
Eyes"
"Then why don't you go out and
get the food as ordered and bring
1t in to him?"
Il do go out and get it" replied the
small culprit blandly, "but l don't
bring it in because / like to eat 1t
myself"
"Under the Samoan CUSTOM" said
the judge, suppressing a smile and
rapping for order in the court to stop
a general laugh, "if you don't obey
the orders your chief gives you he
wAl throw you out OF his family.
Then you will be an outcast and u
wanderer and no one will lift hand
to help you at any time. You had
better control your appetite"
The cu!prit's grin faded to look OF
dismay. In Samoa it is the deepest
disgrace to belong to no family;
slander unjustly to call a man a wan
derer; utter misery to be one. The
small man abjectly promised to obey
orders In the future. so peace was re-
stored.

Insects IN, Cold Weather

While the majority of insects dis
appear during cold weather, some are
known to live and thrive at tempera-
lures which kill most of their kind in
a few minutes. About 900 different
insects have been found living on or
in the snow About twenty-five spe-
cies are known to come out on the
snow in Europe and America. Some
of these are so small that they are
never seen except in winter, and they
are so little known that they have
no popular name. 1t is not known
how, or on what they live.

RaUGges of Epidenrics

"Four and five centuries ago, the
Black plague ravaged mankind with
severity and a ferociousness unparal-
Ieled today. During one great epidem-
Ic one-fourth of the worlds populace
was depleted in the short space OF
two years.
Like a great fostering, miasmic
wave, periodically the foul tentacles
OF plague have swept over the world.
Centuries ago 1t was leprosy, then
syphilis, then the Bubonic or Black
plague, then smallpox and later the
great respiratory plaques of influenza,
pneumonia and sometimes infantile
paralysis.

That Wonderful Air

Jack Benny tells of fellow living
in Los Angeles. This fellow heard
that his mother, who was visiting in
New York, had suddenly become ill.
Hopping on his bicycle, he rode day
and night until he arrived in New
York. The doctor informed the son
that only California air would help
his mother, and that she was too i'll
to travel. What was he to do? He
let the air out of his bicycle tires and
his mother, breathing that California
air, promptly became well again.-The

When hogs of any age have con-
tanst access to self-feeders there is
practically no danger of their over
eating, says the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. This is of
considerable Importance in the case of
sows which are sucking their litters.
An additional advantage of the self
feeder system is the freedom from
overcrowding at the feeders which is
usual when hand feeding is practiced.

The use of saccharin in the manu-
facture of food products is not toler-
ated by the United States Department
of Agriculture, which enforces the
Federal food and drugs law, for the
reason that such ingredient is coal
tar product, injurious to health, and
has no food value whatever.

VOCAL|STS ARE
RADIO STARS

The wave lengths floated such a
number of things into the loud
speakers of the nation last evening
that it would be difficult to hit
upon any one of them as the chief
feature of the evening - although
the singing of Douglas Stansbury,
In the Del-Mar-Va hour from WIZ,
probably brought the most satisfac-
ton to listeners. Stansbury hasn't
been very much among those pres
ent in radio receivers since the
Roxy gang signed off last spring.
His unannounced appearance with
the Chesapeake Eastern S h ore
boosters last evening showed that
he hasn't lost the trick of putting
every bit of himself into the songs
he sings and getting their meaning
and intent very surely into the con-
seriousness of his listeners.
Singing of a sort that is highly
satisfactory to us home folks came
in the Emerson Hour of WRC from
the new Emerson vocal ensemble.
Under the direction of Eugene
Martinez, baritone. five vocalists
sang the old songs the songs that
all of us sing when we gather
about the piano in the evening
when we feel musically inclined
and don't ask each other what we
shall sing. That's the best proof
of the real worth of a song, by the
way - when a little home group
begins to sing it spontaneously as
some member of the family plays

Louise Schuchhardt, soprano, being
more used to the microphone than
on her former appearances with
the Emerson group, gave a very
good account of herself in her solo
performance and was a big help to
the ensemble. Maude Montgomery,
contralto, and Douglas McComas,
tenor, were newcomers in the group,
and Else Melamet Schmidt and Mr..
Martinez the old friends that COM
pleted the quintet. Arsenic Ralon's
orchestra did it's best work in the
Pirates Of Penzance" number with
which the program was opened.
GYPSIES PLAY
UNUSUAL PROGRAM
The cash-and-carry grocery sub
sidy more than justified the nice
things we said about it yesterday
when 1t came to the loud speakers
from WEAF at o'clock. In fact,
the playing of the Evening Star"
song from '"Tannhauser" by the
'cellist, and the orchestra's interpre-
tation of LISTS 'Lieberstraum"
were gems of musical production.
The 'cellist gave the Wagnerian
number just that touch Of pensive-
ness and sadness the composer
wrote into it-but which few sing
ers or solo instrumentalists ever
give it. John Barnes Wells, tenor.
did himself proud with two of the
prettiest ballads of the evening.
Horlick and his men simply added
another to the many fine evenings
of music they have given US.
TWO OPERAS
ARE PRESENTED
The Swanee Orchestra and Al
Herman's Ministries, from the Pal
ace Theater, brought up the rear
of the procession that passed
through the WRC microphone-not
forgetting Dick Liebert and his
added piano number at the end Of
the program. Why don't some
bright person have Liebert do a
piano recital for the radio audience?
He is we'll worth listening to, as
Palace Theater addicts can testify.
In the outer reaches there was
the WEAF grand opera, 1.-THE b.
hemian Girl" which was accom-
panied by quite a bit of static grind
ing, and somewhere in the North
THE Pirates Of Penzance" was pre-
sented-we didn't have time to get
the stations. as there were several
of them taking the feature, prob
ably from WGY or WHAZ. The
Del-Mar-Va program, from WIZ, 20
which we've referred, was a visit
to a county fair by Henry Corn
tossell and his bride-and provided
real entertainment.
