Brownsville herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1910-current, 1931-09-13

James Kemp, 63, is an example of supreme poise.
He is a steeplejack who was working at the top of a 15O-
foot chimney in Rochester, N. Y, when the scaffolding
broke. His companion fell to the ground and was killed.
Kemp grasped a rope and landed on a narrow chimney
ledge. He faced death for two hours. Firemen tried to
rescue him but their ladders were too short. Planes tried
to lower ropes, but a stiff wind blew them away. Finally
ropes, which made a swing, were tossed over the Chin
ney and the old steeplejack came down.
When he was safe he quietly explained that he knew
better than to let the thing get him. He wouldn't think
about danger, he said. Practically everyone can profit
from his experience. Human nature has a habit of flying
off the handle that would prove dangerously disastrous
If something went wrong at the top of a 15O-foot chimney.

Daily Health

1t is essential, Of course. that the
diet Of the growing child contain
plenty OF vitamin A substances.
Evidence has been accumulated
which indicates that carotin, which
Is the yellow coloring matter in
carrots and in other foods, has
vitamin A properties.
Vitamin A Is not developed in the
animal body. as Is vitamin ID. the
rickets-preventing vitamin. Hence,
1t is necessary that products be
chosen because OF their richness IN
this substance.
The liver fats OF the salmon and
the halibut are richer in vitamin A
than Is cod liver oil. The sheep.
calf and oxen livers contain 10 times
as much vitamln A as does good cod
liver oil, and 200 to 1000 times more
vitamin "A than q good average
sample Of butter.
Vitamin A seems. along with
vitamin L. to bear some relationship
to the ability OF an animal to repro

reflected In the chemistry OF the

Humanism Survives

When the members of the new British cabinet went
into session the other day every man was wearing a sprig
of heather on his coat lapel. Prime Minister Ramsay
Macdonald had brought it from the Scottish Highlands.
The others saw it. And somehow or other they forgot
political dissension, the financial status of the country, the
economic depression-all the other measures that are
challenging their ingenuity while they remembered some
as a good luck token.
But if the heather has charm it will come from its
influence, simple and wholesome. on the group of states

Companionship Necessary

Charles Hardenberg, who has lived alone on Little
Watts Island, about 10 miles from Crisfield, Nd, for the
last % years has finally found the mystery of life, it
would appear. Hardenberg, known as the Hermit of
Watts Island" was married the other day..
In 1908, at the age of 33, he left his law practice and
went to live on the island. Evidently loneliness is not so
pleasant that it takes a permanent hold, for Hardenberg,
after years and years of such solitude, has given it up.
History has proved, over and over again, that peo-
pie have a desire to congregate. The %scriptural injunction
which said that man cannot live by bread alone still
holds true. He needs companionship, and an interest in
something that is larger than the scope of his immediate
personal activities.

Great Service Well Done

Two Chicago men, mail carriers for 40 years. and
intimate friends, retired from service on pensions the
other day. Each one had walked 10000 miles, accord
ing to an estimate.
Through snow and sleet and rain, or under burning
July suns, Henry Serenson and Charles M. Nelson, both
SO years old, have been faithful to their service. They
had a trust to perform. Peoples secrets, their hopes and
joys and sorrows, were enclosed in the envelopes that
these two men carried, and they were true to their task.
The two mail carriers merely did their duty of
course. But remaining true to one definite course for 40
years, performing a task well, long after its novelty is
gone, is a significant thing.

The DRIVER Is q wooden club

Letter

NEW YORK-Excerpts from q
letter to q certain Canadian guide,
known TO me only as Mac.
Running around through the
city crowds again, Mac, I found
myself ~chuckling at that talk We
had by the camp fire about city
folk who laugh at rubes and back
woodsnen. And you smiled and
you smiled and said / ought to
drop around some time and listen
to the shrieks that went up when
guides got together to swap yarns
about the city folks they had taken
into the woods.
And now that it's all over with,
I'll come clean about that big
trout on the string. You can tell
the fellows in the camp that you
caught 1t. 7 don't know why we
lie about such matters at the time,
but a lot OF US do. II doesn't make
a bit OF difference 10 you whether
or not you display a nice string,
and SO / don't expect you TO worry
about how a t~enderfoot gets that
way. Please don't tell the bunch
up there how I let that whopper
get away from me the first day.
And I will not spill how you snag-
ged that nice one with a quick
jerk Of your fly.
But there's something New
Yorkese or Chicagoesque about the
way you told me OF a moo hunt.
OF course. you didn't know that.
But ! don't think I'll come UP this
fall. That last sentence you put
on your description has stuck In
my mind. II had a bit too much
imagination in 1t for comfort. II

afraid I'll keen remembering 1t.
Maybe you've forgotten. But

how a couple of EN- would take a
long swig Of whiskey 70 warm up.
Then YOU went down TO the bog.
You got out the little bark horn
and gave the call Of the female
moose. After a time from some
where, miles away in the woods,
came an answer. Some poor
moose's heart dipped a rcIple Of
beats probably at the notion Of a
rendezvous and he came slowly
crashing his way through the
brush to the trysting place.
Then, as I remember. you went
on: And then we stand and wait.
And there's a lot Of excitement
because you don't know what
minute the old fellow Is going to
show up. And you don't know
whether he's going 10 scent YOU
You don't even dare smoke. You
don't dare call very often. or he'll

or so you dare call again to figure

And all of a sudden out he
comes. And gosh. he must be sur
prised to find out that stead OF a
sweetheart waiting for him, he
walks into a dozen bullets
