DEATH OF VETERAN RAM

Ike, famous ram veteran Of the
World War, is dead. He was not a
veteran of the battlefield, but did his
bit as head Of the White House flock
of sheep which kept the lawn cropped
during the war, thus releasing the
caretakers for service.
If he had been human, Ike prob
ably would have been in the ranks of
the dollar-a-year men. He was hui
man in one particular, at that. He
was Unfortunately fond of tobacco. His
friends and enemies were numbered
according to whether they furnished
him with the coveted weed or not.
1t is said that he evidenced his dis
pleasure in the manner peculiar to
rams when he was denied chew.
Wool from Ike and the rest Of his
flock was auctioned by the Red Cross
during the war and bought by pat
riotic persons who desired to contri-
butte to it's fund, some of it bringing
as high as $4,000 pound.
Since the war the flock has been
kept on a Maryland farm near Wash
ington, where Ike peacefully passed
away the other day, the victim of old
age. A few minutes before he expired
he was given a generous chew of to-
bacco, and he died munching it with
evident satisfaction, illustrating that
with rams as with men, s"'the ruling
passion is strong in DEATH"

"TEN THOUSAND SMOKES"

During June, 1912, serious vol
canic eruption occurred at a point on
the Alaskan Peninsula, about one
hundred miles north from Kodiak
Island. The entire top of Mt. Matmai
blew off, covering the country for
hundreds of miles on each side with
pumice and volcanic ash. Close to the
base of the mountain this pumice and
ash were as much as one hundred feet
deep.
Adjacent to this new formed crater,
about fifteen miles away was formed
one of the most peculiar phenomenon
in existence. A heretofore green val
ley was transformed into a seething
cauldron. The floor of the valley was
covered with thousands of these
steam jets. Some were no larger than
lead pencil, others were great era
ters, fifty feet across throwing up
steam clouds thousands Of feet into
the air. This region was first explor-
ed by DR.. Robert Griggs, under the
auspices Of the National Geographic
Society and named the valley of
Ten Thousand Smokes"
Arthur Young, the worlds bow and
arrow champion, and Captain Jack
Robertson, explored this amazing
wonder of Nature and brought back
a graphically thrilling motion pic
ture Of it which they Incorporated in
to "Alaskan Adventures" the feature
at the Iris theatre Friday and Satur-
day.
This is but one Of the many drama
tic thrills which await those who see
this epic of the Northland, as enthrall-
ing as it is unique. The breakup Of
the mighty Yukon, the birth Of the
giant icebergs, the pursuit Of the
great Kodiak bear, the largest carni-
vorous animal in existence; all these
have been caught with the camera,
something never before accomplish
ed and the result is alaskan Ad-
ventures"

TRADE MISSIONARIES

The general public little realizes
how many of the inventions and aids
to comfort now in general use have
been popularized through the per-
sistence and far-sighted enterprise of
business men. The same is true of
new products, whose introduction is
often attended with difficulty, al
though they later come to be con-
sidered indispensable.
Years ago when the Standard Oil
Company was seeking a wider amket
for kerosene, then it's principal pro-
duct, it's trade missionaries were sent
to South America and China, giving
away lamps and teaching the natives
how to use them. Of course, the
lamps had to have kerosene and China
has ever since remained the worlds
best kerosene market.
The same methods were employ
ed in introducing the blue flame
stove, but when the demand had
been created manufacturers were
willing to make the stoves, which
thereafter found a ready sale. Sim
liar enterprise has been shown by
public service companies in the de-
velopment of household devices
which use gas and electricity. Ever
though the equipment brings little
profit, or none at all, the sustained
demand thus created for fuel and
energy increases consumption and
makes possible the growth Of these IN
dustries.
The widespread use of the things
which make for the comforts OF
modern life is largely due to the I'M
firing efforts Of these missionaries
of trade, who through educating the
public to the use of what at first
appear to be luxuries, finally cause
them to be demanded as necessities.

A ROBIN HOOD PIE

British-American good will was
further strengthened recently through
the unusual medium of a gooseberry
pie. Incendentally, the memory of that
beloved rogue, Robin Hood, was re-
vived, as it was in consequence of his
reputed fondness for gooseberry pie
that the pleasing incident was brought
about
Mansfield, Eng, situated in Sher-
wood Forest, where Robin Hood and
his merry outlaws are supposed to
have roamed some 700 years ago, has
retained an ancient custom of cutting
a gooseberry pie as feature of its
annual birthday celebration. The town
also has namesake-Mansfield,
Massachusetts.
Correspondence between the mayors
of the two towns during the last two
years having aroused a feeling of kim
ship and mutual interest, Mayor
Maltby of Mansfield, Eng, recently
sent a 20-pound gooseberry pie to
Mayor Plattner of Mansfield, Mass,
with the suggestion that it be cut in
due and ancient form at public
celebration.
This was done in front of the town
hall a few days ago in the presence
of the populace, and slices were dis
tributed as far as they would go.
Speeches were made and the goose
berry pie was hailed as a symbol of
friendship between the people and
their English cousins.
Thus the Robin Hood legend fur
nished another tie to bind the peo-
Piles who speak the English tongue
language which today would sound
strange enough to Robin Hood and
Little John.

Guests In Costume

If practical, it is amusing to ask
the guests to come in costume. Each
is to dress to represent some charac-
ter mentioned in song or story in con-
nection with gardens or flowers. AS
they talk they may give to each other
any hints to their Identities except
their names. Each keeps list of the
characters he guesses and the hostess
may reward the one with the most
correct list with a watering can, rake,
hoe, spade, plant, garden maya
zine or anything which has to do with
gardening.

always boasts some warm days. Since
these are the final efforts of summer
for another year it is a shame not to
celebrate at least one of them. Why
not do it with a garden tea? | know
that it is impossible to select with
certainty one Of the summer days but
the nice part about this party is that
it can be held indoors if the weather
