Porto Ricans Given
Agricultural Tasks

PHOENIX = With 100 Porto Ri
cans placed in the lettuce fields op-
Grated by Japanese farmers and an
other so given employment thru the
United States employment agency
the situation confronting the Salt
river valley for the past several
days has been clarified. The Porto
Ricans again have become self
supporting. Only a small number
remain idle.
The city's central labor council
has been active in placing the i'm
migrants in positions to support
themselves. The labor situation in
the cotton fields arose when the
Porto Ricans refused to work, as
serting that their pay and accom-
modations were not what they were
represented to be when they con-
tracted to come to the valley.

ing nature creatures and trying to be

"They showed pictures of the
naughty Praying Mantis. You know
or at least you have heard, how she
looks as though she were praying to
hide from people the fact that she is
really very naughty creature. She's
humbug, though her name is Pray
ing Mantis.
"And they showed pictures of the
compound eyes of the fly, and how the
fly sees the same thing so many times
over-at the same time, too.
"That may sound curious but you
know what mean. A fly has so many
eyes one would say, or at least can
see so many times over with the eyes
he has because Of their being COM
pound eyes. And then they showed
pictures of us as / have told you.
"They were splendid pictures, ]
heard, and the people laughed with
delight over the wonderful circus
stunts we could do.
Now, that makes me think I'd like
to get up a circus now," said George
Grasshopper.
"The same thought that just went

Mr.. Grasshopper.

SO Mr.. Grasshopper and George
Grasshopper went about and told the
other grasshoppers that they were
going to give circus.
And all the grasshoppers Joined in
the preparations.
Some formed a band, others decided
they would do tricks on twigs pull
ing themselves up and over the twigs
and doing really nothing short Of fine
trapeze stunts.
Then others began thinking of all
the funny things they could say and
do SO they could take the parts of
clowns.
Still others decided they would ride
each other and have races and superb
or exhibitions. And still others said
they would have famous grasshopper
hopping races
They all practiced and practiced
and Mr.. Grasshopper was chosen as
the ring master.
They invited the mothers and fa-
theirs in the grasshopper families to
come, and they invited the very young
grasshoppers, too.
And when they all arrived and then
saw the circus well, there was such
applause and such excitement.
They, too, hoped about with ex-
citement and cried:
Bravo, grasshoppers, bravol"
And Mr.. Grasshopper and George
Grasshopper were delighted at the
success Of the Grasshopper circus.

AS Told by
Irwin S. Cobb
PRETTY POLL.

TT WILL be recalled that it was nec-
4 essary for the Wright brothers to
go abroad in order to secure proper
recognition for their first aeronautic
inventions. The French government
welcomed them and gave them proper
opportunity to demonstrate that they
had progressed far beyond any others
in developing heayier-than-air flying
machine; but as a group, the French
aeronauts were disposed to show jeal-
ousy for the two Yankees.
The point was that these French
men, for years past. virtually had
been holding the supremacy over the
rest of Europe In the matter of aero
nautic experiments. Their dirigibles,
it is true, had not proved complete
successes; still, French ingenuity had
progressed farther in this field than
the Germans or the Britishers had
gone. 1t was only to be expected,
therefore, that the two modest stran-
gers from the States should encounter
envy and meet with obstacles from
their Gallic rivals.
Nevertheless, following the success
ful proof by them of their ability ac-
tually to fly and, what was more inn
portant, to guide their machine along
given course, banquet at Paris
was arranged in their honor. Amer
leans had good deal to do with
bringing the dinner about, but all the
French aeronauts or would-be aero
nauts were invited and consider
able number of them attended.
Naturally, there was a deal OF
speechmaking. The chief orator was
distinguished Frenchman who de-
voted the most of his remarks to
claiming that France had led the
world in the new field of endeavor
or so he insisted and to proclaiming
that future developments ever would
find Frenchmen at the forefront. Gu
riously enough, he had very little to
say in compliment of the two chief
guests of honor.
Wilbur Wright was next called upon
by the POSTMASTER. Slowly he rose
to his feet.
Il am no hand at public speaking
he said, land on this occasion must
content myself with few words of
thanks to the company for its enter
tainment of myself and my brother
AS / sat here listening to the speakers
who have preceded me, have heard
comparisons made to the eagle, to the
swallow and to the hawk as typifying
skill and speed in the mastery of the
air; but somehow or other, / could
not keep from thinking of the bird
which, Of all the pathological king
dom, is the poorest flyer and the best
talker. ! refer to the parrot"
And down he sat amid tremendous
applause from the Americans present.
