CHINESE Legend
! MAKES YOUTH RICH
Crab Fisher Exhibits Shell
With hGrandmother'S Face"
Outlined on II.

BY the Associated Press.
SHANGHAI. November TIE was
only poor Chinese country boy who
bowl filed by catching crabs and selling
them to the residents of Swallow, q
South China seaport. at prices so low
q New York restaurant could serve crab
meat cocktails at nickel each and
make 100 per cent profit.
That was less than six months ago.
Today, this same boy has more money
than he knows what 10 do with, and
ell because of a single crab. Where
he once lived in a dirty, ill-smelling
clay hut he now occupies a suite in
one of the leading hotels in Shanghai,
has developed a taste for American
ham and eggs, and wears foreign style
clothes.
Legend Makes Wang Rich.
His name is Wang Chi-tze and he is
O. direct descendant of q long line of
KWangtungese farmers and fishermen,
simple folk, who worked and believed in
legends. 1t was legend that helped
make Wang rich.
One of the old tales In which Wang's
people took great stock concerned one
of his great-great- great grandmothe
woman who believed in the tranSmigra-
ton of souls and cherished a desire to
become a fish after her death. She
was buried In the ocean several miles
from shore.
Wang Chi-tze was particularly fond
of this OLD legend. He often boasted
of his ancestor whose soul had taken
the body of fish and. according to hts
own story, was careful to examine the
d0ufc pafrh n roaLrp ha hadn't

mother
Shell Bears WOman'S Face.
Inspecting his basket of crabs one
evening last March, Wang noticed one
whose shell seemed to bear the outline
Of human face. A close look revealed
the face was that of charming Chinese
woman. Wang was convinced that the
old story about his ancestor was really
true.
He spent the next few days showing
the find to his customers. News of the
discovery spread. and soon the boy was
spending all his time showing the crab
to throngs of curious farmers and towns
people at 10 cents a peek
Three months ago Wang came to
Shanghai, and carnival man offered
him a big booth. Wang engaged an
English-speaking Chinese to explain the
attraction to the foreigners who might
come to see it and opened up for BUSH
ness.
Twenty Thousand Pay First Week.
Twenty thousand persons, mostly
Chinese, paid 10 cents each the first
week to see the crab. Business tn
creased the second week. It is estf-
mated that fully a quarter Of a million
Chinese have viewed the creature.
Many foreign residents of the city, too,
visited the carnival for no other purpose
than to see the wonder.
The majority of foreigners, however.
are inclined to regard the lady Of the
shell as an extraordinary piece Of cary
ing.

THE JOKE EDITOR

There is much 10 commend the method Of Gene Howe, columnist Of Amarillo, Texas, in filling his al lottcd space with sparkling wit. The son Of "old Ed Howe" Of Achison Globe fame really follows in the footsteps Of his father when he ullIizos the wi5ccracke Of stage comedians 10 brighten up the columns cf his paper. Old Man Howe did thi: during the years that Gene vas q toddlcr, El cry show that played in Achison disco cred that the next day and for 3 week follow ing the wi5ccracks would appear ill the Globe. When other fodder was necessary 10 appease the rayenous maw for humor the editor would cull what he could find in publca- tons from everywhere. ot course giving everyone concerned due credit.
 Now Gene Howe is in New York, going from one show to another and writing down the Uisccracks. When lG returns to Amarillo all the jokes will be dutifully displayed. The homo :oIhs will get some extra good laughs.
 But as the Nlsccracks in the shows usually are made over from other wisecrac&s which were born genera tions ago, it would seem that the net result in Amarillo will be 3 succession of jokes that our grand fathers laughed over.

There is no practical denaturant except wood alcohol that cannot easily and con- pletely be redistilled out It is wood alcohol or nothing.
