NEW YORK, October 22.-Joe Becal
probably has the Saddest job In all that
long and strangely varied list OF voca-
tions followed by New York's 100000
In almost every other calling-even In
that of epitaph carver, for instance
there comes now and then relieving
touch of humor.
But not in Joe's-at least not until
today.
Complying with the printed instruc-
lions on the top sheet Of batch handed
him by his superior, Joe. who drives the
city hearse, climbed the stairs of a
stone faced fiat on Haven avenue. He
came to claim for the morgue the body
of the baby certified by the physician
to have been stillborn. 1t was the first
and only child of Mrs. Irene Stowell,
who scarcely looks her II years. Joe
thought less of his job than ever.
AS he gathered up the tiny bundle,
a fold fell away. two questioning blue
eyes opened and tiny fist clenched.
Wrong number" said Joe, and
fastened back to his dismal job, COM
pressing his smiling lips, possibly to
avoid a joyful whistle. One doesn't
whistle when one is driver of the city
hearse. But. anyway, Joe had had one
break" in his round of gloom.

FOR CHILDREN
Wide Differences Found in

That wide differences exist in the
preferences of children for different
activities and change as the child
gets older, is indicated by results of

of children In grade schools by By

search director.
The lists show that S-year-old
boys prefer baseball to any other
sport. Girls favor arithmetic by a

A survey of twenty-seven boys
and twenty-nine girls. shows arith-

Is to 8 score, but that boys like
fairy tales while not single girl
signif1ed this desire.
In most groups and ages the boys
lead in choice of swimming as a
favorite sport. Girls generally we're
most inclined toward books and
reading.
Only one boy and two girls said
they enjoyed biographies of great
men and only one liked war stories.
Fishing comes high among the
likes of 11-year-old boys, but not
a single girl chose 1t. At this age,
preferments for basketball, baseball
and football are about two to one
in the boys favor. Boys did not
like to travel, while girls expressed
a desire for it? Desire for reading
is about even at this age among boys
and girls.
On reaching the age of II, boys
who like arithmetic exceed the
girls, and fishing still Is the pre-
ferred male sport. More girls at
IL prefer swimming than boys.
which is a decided change from the
younger groups. Girls like movies
better than boys and fairy tales
