unused room for the children's quiet
nook. It is not for punishment, but
in recognition that children need a
place to think things over alone just
as grown people do. Often when 1
am asked to settle a problem I give
some suggestions and then ask my
boy or girl to decide the outcome.
Just one child at a time visits the

Former congressman.

BH Times Special
WASHINGTON, June 4.-The BIZ
pgraphies of 10000 former Congress
Emen, representing the entire past
membership Of the House and Sen
ate, are being embalmed in book
form by Ansel Void, clerk of the
Joint congressional committee on
printing.
sWold has been engaged in his gi-
gantic task for several years and
has written thousands Of letters and
Nmade thousands of inquiries. He
has considered it his duty to COM
plete careers of the former mem
bers after they left Congress. 81
One of the most interesting careers
urearthed by Void, was that Of Sen
ator James Shields, a native Of Ire
land, but who represented three
States during his career-Ifinois,
about 1919, then Minnesota, whence
he came back to the Senate. and
finally California, which State he
also represented.
Void also has discovered that
former Representative William Cra-
30 Of Massachusetts is the Oldest
living ex-member of the House.
Grape is 81. He served four years
in the House, retiring in 1883, or
forty-three years ago.

Musk Oxen Muskless

The musk OK of North America is q
true connecting link between wild cat
tie and sheep. 1t has horns like the
wild Cape buffalo of Africa, cattle-like
hOofs, and it's flesh looks and tastes
like beef
1t has next its body dense coat Of
soft, clean woolly hair, and through
this grows rain coat of very long,
straight brown hair like that of the
Tibetan yak. 1t has tail so short and
small that the animal seems tailless
The horns meet in broad base over
the top of the skull, drop far down
then sharply curve upward for several
inches, terminating In sharp points.
They are specially designed for pune
turing the vitals of wolves and polar
bears.
The musk OK lives and thrives even
up to the farthest north for hoofed
animals, says the Detroit News. It's
supply of musk" and its "musky"
odor are both wholly imaginary.

Continue Search for
Lost" Arizona Mines

OF all the legends of buried treasure
the most persistent is the one about
lost gold mines of Arizona. Only the
Indians are supposed to possess the
secret of this battling mystery, al
though, the story has been circulated
for more than a century.
That there once were mines in the
region is indicated by references found
in early Spanish diaries and by the
tales passed down through several gen.
eratiOns of natives who were COM
PEELED TO dig the ore as slaves of their
conquerors The chief evidence in sup
port of the tradition is the altar of
the San Xavier mission, not far from
Tucson. 1t is described as being sin
laid with virgin gold" Mission rec
ords show that the precious metal was
brought from Canada del Orc where ii
was mined by Indians under the di-
rection of Spanish priests.
But no trace now exists of the dig
gings, and the old trail over which the
gold is said to have been carried by
pack mules disappears abruptly in the
sands.-Popular Mechanics Magazine.
