answered by Dr.. l.. w. Larson with
an emphatic No. He said 1t isn't done

One objection is the commercialism

Great Artists Pipes

tion of tobacco precludes them
from bOasting of remote antiquity

makes the coIoring of a pipe a
solemn ritual may have very pro-
nOunced views on its artistic
claims. Nor is his point of view ig-
nOred by the fine arts authorities,

Pleasure and Profit
in Scorpion Hunting

One of the most peculiar hunting
expeditions on record is that which
takes place at more or less regu-
lar intervals in the town of Mar
dine, in Asia Minor. The town is
surrounded by ancient walls built
to protect it from invaders, and hid
den in various places in these walls
are hOrdes of scorpions which
often become a menace to the pop
ulation. In order to keep down
the number of these pests, said to
be death-dealing, bonus is of
fered by the municipality and reg
ular hunts are organized. The
hunts take place at night when the
hunters, armed with lanterns, poke
around the walls and dislOdge the
scorpions. The next day they carry
them to the town officials and col
lect the money due them as a re
ward. 1t frequently happens that
they must wait upon the pleasure
of that official, when they while
away the time by making their fe-
rOcious captiyes engage in combat.
Bets are made on the results, and
it often happens that members of
the waiting party have lost their
money before they receive it.

Father Abraham Wise
in Departing From Uv

The diggerS, comments the Mon
treal Star, have uncovered the city
of Ur, the place Father Abraham
left because he felt the need of eX-
pansion.
Ur, it appears, had luxurious
civilization and the women wore
hair nets. The hair nets may have
had something to do with Abra-
hams moving to wider fields. To q
man with the pioneer spirit hair
nets for women must have looked
like the last word in super1uous
expenditure, especially if, as was
the custom among the patriarchs,
he had a number of wives all of
whom would want hair nets.
At all events Abraham decided
to get out of the hair net district
and so he embarked on the great
adventure which persists to this
day. 1t may be news to Abraham
that ten Of the tribeS-that poster
ity numberless as the sands of the
desert-were lost, even more COM
pletely lost than the city of Ur,
which has just been unearthed aft
er 6,000 years in the grave, but
the other ten tribes found them
selves on their feet wherever they
fetched up and are now among the
solidest citiZenry of the world.
Abraham will be glad to hear this.
He made no mistake in leaving Ur,
the hair net city. In vain was the
hair net spread in the sight of the
victim. Abraham was too wise to
be taken in that snare. He took
himself and his daughters and his
wives and his maid-servants out
of the reach of temptation. His
sons, having families of their own,
shared Abraham's dislike of hair
nets and needed no arguments to
emigrate.
In the light of history, we repeat
that Abraham made no mistake in
leaving Ur. And even if he did, to
Ur is human, to forgive divine

Telephone Efficiency

When is an inch equivalent to
four miles? The answer is when
you hold your mouth away from a
telephone transmitter. When you
place your lips at an angle to the
mouth-piece or show your aloofness
toward this mechanical ear in some
other way. you thereby push your
listener miles away from you.
W. A. Jackson, superintendent of
telegraph of the Michigan Central
railroad, figured out this loss of
speaking efficiency and sent a me-
mOrandum about it to all his en-
ployees. He advised: "Talk di-
rectly into the telephone transmit
ter at a distance of not more than
one-half inch, using a clear, mod
crate tone"

Algerian Grasshoppers

Some Algerian grasshoppers, just
arrived at the London zoo, have
beaten all records for the genius
of leaping. They seem to have
sacrificed everything for this as.
though the body is barely an inch
long, the hind legs are fully three
inches.
The newcomers are confined in a
glass case, two feet high, yet, when
first put in, their horny heads were
constantly tapping on the roof.
Unlike other grasshOppers, they
are carnivorous, feeding on raw
meat and dead insects; and in
stead of living amongst grass they
haunt damp caves. This species
has never before been seen at the
menagerie.

PROSPECTS FOR PEACHES
Indications Are That Delaware
Fruit Will Stage Come back

Delmarva peaches are due for a
real Comeback" this summer in
the opinion of the fest informed
fruit men of the area down the
State and Peninsula. Trees today
are heavily laden and only pro
tracted dry season or severe hail
storm will prevent a 100 per cent
crop. The opinion of w. F. Allen
and Company of Salisbury, present
a striking illustration Of what or
chardists expect this year as com
pared to the 1928 season. This firm
has 10000 trees in bearing and is
one of the largest shippers on the
Peninsula. From this immense
orchard they picked and shipped
but eleven carloads last year. This
year they expect to manifest 100
carloads. Between 30 and 40 labor
ers are being employed to thin the
crop and thus guarantee that the
fruit left on the trees will be of
better quality. Shortage in the
Carolina crops is expected to be re-
flected in better prices for Del
Mar-Va peaches. Peaches picked

record for the Allan orchards, as
well as for the peninsula Eight

Hindu TheoIogicaI Idea

There are many different cOncep-
tions in Hindu theology as to the

is that originally there descended
upon the earth one lesser god who

Under this theory, Yami, the wife

State Secrets Hidden
by Absorbent Roller

Every foreign Office in Europe
acts on, the theory that an army OF
spies is constantly on the alert to
steal its secrets, and infinite precau.
tons are taken to battle their eff
forts. Very shortly after the first
use of blotting paper it was dis
covered that it was quite possible to
cause a blotting pad to give up
secrets by simply holding 1t in
front of mi-ror. Long after all
the commercial world had forgotten
the existence of such a thing, the
British foreign Office used a sand
shaker to dry its important writ
ten documents, of which there are
many despite the use of the type
writing machine. Then specially
manufactured black plotting paper
was used, but this was not found to
be absolutely spyproof and a return
to the sandshaker was cOntem-
plated when some one suggested the
simple expedient of small absorb
ent roller. These rollers have since
been used for drying diplomatic doc
uments. When such a roller has
been run up and down and across

crest spy in 1.-The world is at liberty

Idea of Modern Ship
Traced to Egyptians

Shipbuilding had its birth on the
banks of the Nile, according to the
belief of Prof. Elliott Smith, ex-
pressed in the London Magazine.
Although, he says, at a very
early period in the history of man.
kind logs and floats of various kinds
were used by many people to cross
narrow sheets of water or for pad
ding along coast lines, the real
history of boat building began when
the earliest jewellers ON the banks
of the Nile tied together bundles of
reeds to make floats.
These simple craft not only de-
termined the form of the wooden
ships that succeeded them, but the
methods of construction for max
ing the reed floats, |. e., tying them
together with cords, were also
adopted when wooden ships came
to be built by adding planks to the
hOllowed-Out logs which eventually
degenerated into the mere keel Of
the composite ship. Thus the ear
Hest Egyptian term for shipbuild-
ing was the word signifying ITO
bind" Even at the present time
we still find upon the Nile all these
primitive types that are survivals
of phases in the history Of ship
building. some Of them more than
sixty centuries old.

Yiddish Made Up of
Variety of Tongues

Yiddish is middle German dia-
lect derived from Hebrew and
Slavic influences. 1t is the lang
uage spoken by the Jews in east
ern Europe, the most widely spread
dialect of the Jews. Those Jews
who, toward the end of the Mid
die ages, left Germany for the
Slavic lands bohemia, Poland,
Galicia and Lithuania) spoke the
middle high German of their places
of origin and up to the Sixteenth
century wrote it quite correctly, al
though they employed the Hebrew
alphabet. The absence Of active
intercourse with Germany, how
ever, led in time to a process of
simplification of morphology and
syntax. Thus the imperfect, sub
junctive, and to a large extent the
neuter gender were lost; all the
propositions came to be construct
ed with the dative, etc. At the
same time the German sounds UNI
derwent certain changes, and a.
large number of Hebrew, Aramaic
and Slavic words were incorporat-
ed in the language. The resultant
idiom, the Yiddish, supplanted the
Slavic spoken by the primitive
Jewish settlers in the east of Eu-
rope, and has been carried to all
parts Of the world, including Ger
many, admitting words and idioms
from all the languages with which
1t has come into contact.

Farmers of Country
Owe Much to Dream

Wisconsin farmers have erected
a granite monument to the memory
of John f. Appleby, who was known
throughout the Midwest a genera
ton ago as an expert whittier In
wood. He helped farmers through
out the world by inventing the first
machine to tie sheaves of grain au-
tOmatically.
According to Farm and Fireside
Appleby was eighteen years old
when he whitfield his way to fame
by his invention. He had grown
tired from bending to bind grain by
hand in a Wisconsin harvest field.
and so he spent an evening dream
ing" of machine which would do
this work. He whitfield out model
of his invention. which he perfected
in 1850. 1t is still almost identi-
cal with the design used all over
the world on grain binders today.

Tent Within a Tent

volved the use of two wall tents
The one tent as remember it, was
nine by eleven, while the other was
twelve by fourteen. The smaller
tent was erected inside of the
larger tent. A good job had been
done of pegging down and stretch
ing both Of these tents. The re-
suit was that the outer tent was a
windbreak par excellence and that
even in the coolest winter weather
the inside was well protected, the
camp stove, box affair, keeping
an even temperature within"

Nature Provided for
"Cold Storage" Pussy

One day the local carpenter,
who had taken a job in the city,
came to see me. He had under
his arm one of the oldest little
kittens I've ever seen. Apparently
long-haired white, it didn't look
like a Persian. 1t didn't look like
anything I'd seen before. More
than anything else, it looked like
a polar bears cub.
"What kind of cat is this?" I
asked him. mr.
"This here is a cold storage cat"
"a what?" 1 cried, thinking of
frozen eggs and defunct chicken.
Cold storage was in it's somewhat
sickly infancy then.
"a year or so ago." he explained,
"the cold storage warehouse I'm
workin' for took in a lot O. cats to
kill rats. What with the damp an
the dark an the cold, only a few
of 'em lived, but the ones that did
