hid with1r the prison walls was
being marched through q cor
ridor on the way to a yard for
exercise. They were all men fac
ing long years Of penal service,
some d whole lifetime, and the
majority Of them had partici-
pated in last summers revolt and
had done months Of solitary
confinement.
Upon a prearranged signal they
seized Their guards, and took their
weapons nom them. The princi-
pal keeper, Durnford, quickly
learned Of the incipient rebellion
and dashed along q corridor to
ward the mutineers. AS he came
down the steps leading to the
exercise yard one Of the convicts
who had seized q pistol from a
guard, shot him down, and he
died Shortly after he was taken
to o l1ospitoI.
Warden Captured
One by one other guards came
around corridors, or down stair
ways, and they were promptly
corraled by the convicts. They
were told that IL they uttered a
sound or made a false move they
would be plugged"
Warden Jennings meanwhile,
chanced to pass through wing
OF the building. He was on q
customary daily tour Of ir.spec
ton. Suddenly q convict stepped
out and showed . pistol into his
stomach.
IF you move, I'll shoot" said
the convict, quietly. Come with
me. warden, we want you to ac-
company us to the punishment
gallery. You will have to cover
u.s. II you don't we're going to
snuff you out"
Two other convicts, both of
whom had obtained arms, came
UP alongside Of the warden and
the trio marched him to the
punishment gallery. There the
warden was handcuffed to one
Of the guards who had been
seized. Six or seven guards had
been corraled by the mutinears.
Guards were forced to open cell
doors and release other prisoners.
Warden Jennings was told he
would have to instruct the men
"cut in front" to let the convicts
out Of the prison, unmolested, or
he would be slain. Convict Sui
Ivan, one Of the ringleaders, told
him II they didn't get their free
dom "all Of us viii die together,
for we are determined to escape
or die in the attempt, and you'll
die with u.s.

REAL CHARITY HAS BARELY STARTED

This modern age is used to arge-scale public be-
quests from the wealthy that it is not ofen realized
that such things comparatively recent develop
ments ff. -
The giving away of vast fortunes really began with
in the last four decades 1t forty ago that
Andrew Carnegie remarked that the rich should
be only the trustee of wealth to be used for the public
good. Since then American rich have given away
than two and half billions of dollars.
These gifts are summarized il article in the
rent issue of Worlds Work. which shows that of the
l79 major foundations for the public good fully 80
per cent have been founded since 1900.
Heading the list of all benefactions, of course, are
the gifts of Rockefeller and Carnegie The Rockefeller
foundation has distributed 5000 1000 900 to the Rock
efeer Institute for Medical Research, the General
Education Board, the Rockefeller Foundation, the
Laura Speman Rockefeller Memorial and the Inter-
national Education Board. Carnegie gave $3.50, ,OO0,
600 to 5000 libraries and 500 universities and colleges
and to the Carnegie Institute the Carnegie Endow
ment for International Peace and similar altruistc
organizations.
Education has profited heavily from rich mems be-
quests.
The University of Chicago has received S5O,OOO,OOO
from the Rockefelers The University of Rochester
has received S25, 0O0 from George Eastman. Duke
University gets much more from the late James B.
Duke Harvard gets S20,0O0,000 from Gordon Nc
Kay Yale gets equal sum from John W. Sterling
Princeton gets S15O00,000 from Henry c. Frick.
These are staggering sums. And yet large-scale
giving has only begun!

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
HAPPY COW

Once upon a time there was n
brown and white cow living in Il
meadow not far from Uncle Wig
e:ly's hollow stump bungalow. All
summer long the COW had lived in
the meadow, cropping the green
grass, changing it into milk, which.
in trun, was made into butter in
{. churn worked by the farmers
wife.
Though it was now almost winter,
when the grass in the meadow was
not so green, still the COW could
be seen out there every day, nib
bling such fodder as she could get
and, between times, chewing her
eud
chew their cuds much as some of
YOU children may chew gum, though
not for the same reason. When a
cew eats grass or hay she does it
in such a hurry that she doesn't stop
to chew it as it must be ehewed.
The COW just partly swallows the
food, letting it slip into Il sort of
sack in her throat and then, when
she gets time to lie down in the
meadow and be peaceful and quiet,
she brings up the partly eaten grass
or hay and ehews it well.
Now one day when Uncle Wig
gily was hopping across the mea-
dow, he saw the brown and white
cow. He was just going to talk to
her, to ask if she knew where there
was an adventure, when, all of a
sudden, voice began to call:
5000 boss. Coo boss! Coo boss!"
! "Excuse me-" mooed the COW, "but
that's my master calling me to come

~ that's a trouble to you"
"Mfy tail-with stickers and burrs

"Dear me! There doesn't seem

gily.. "As for me, Pm jolly, too.
Hut | never knew Happy Cow be-
fore. But take the matter of max
iEg rhymes as you have been doing.
Doesn't that seem hard ?"
"Not to me-" mooed the COW, as
she ambled nearer the meadow

two. 1t comes as easy as my moo"

of grass and asked:

. With that the Happy Cow shook
her sharp horns at the dog, who was

away he ran and then the cow,
chewing her cud contentedly, went
to be MIXED and Uncle Wiggily
Eopped home.
"After this | am going to bc hap

"RED AMERICA"

Nothing is much more amazing, to an American,
than the story from Budapest telling about the I'M
prisonmcnt of Johann Hodovan.
Hodovan a Hungarian peasant, had lived in the Unit
ed States for years Returning to his native land, ne
spent all of his spare time prasing the United States
as heaven for the wCrkingman. He was arrested and
tried for spreading cOmmunsm-and listen to the
courts ruling:
Hodovan, it admitted, constantly lauded the
workingmans position in America-and, "as in Amer
lea communism controlled this equivalent TO pras-
ing communism So poor Hodovan got year IN
prison.
To learn that European court considers this
communisc nation is to receive magnificent sur
