l cannot guarantee that story, but here is one am sure about:
 On April l, 1908, two 11-year-old boys were walking ina rural district when one of them exclaimed: Let's play fire!"
 What shall we burn?" "That patch of dry weeds on this empty field!" The fire was started, and a heavy wind blew it ahead. In few mo- ments the boys were alarmed, and tried to stamp out the blaze, but the wind carried 1t ahead faster than they could put it out. One boy ran for help, but was met with the laughing reply: April FoolW
 That was the only 'fooling' part of the event. To the boys who had made the fire, 1t was no joke. The fire swept across the field, burning matted grass which had been under snow during the winter, but which had become very dry, and which now served as fuel.
 The boys worked as hard as they could to beat out the blaze; and when the cloud of smoke proved that 1t was not an April Fool" others came to help. The fire was eating it's way toward a house 1000 feet from the place where 1t had been started. Just before reaching the house, it was put out. l was one of the boys. You may be sure that my heart was beating fast until the last flame was gone. After that knew better than to start a field afire on April First or any other day. To O-morrOw-Odd Customs of Korea

, quality of a clever caricature--and in so far as I can find out, may be founding an entire1y new school if mimicry.
 The "man who would be king" for few minutes upon the ether, actually repeats the words uttered by the king upon some occasion and to the best of his ability, apes the voice of the king. Thus is an ef- fort at complete illusion being at- tempted; for, since the auditor can't see the actor, there but for the grace of space is the king, the president. the mayor or the person imperson- ated.
 But let me take you behind the scenes for few moments to witness how this is done:
 Bill Adams, who has been the Uncle Henry" of radio programs. was cast variously as Big Bill" Thompson of Chicago, and Nick Longworth of Washington.
 Before going on in the first role, Adams had sat through dozen showings of a talking picture in which Thompson was speaking and had listened to reproductions of Thompson's radio talks until he was able to mimic the Chicago mayor |alty figure.
 It so happened that. some time |ago, Adams had lived in Washington and had known Speaker Longworth. It needed but bit of memory re- freshing 10 recall the speakers method of expression. Two Wash- ington newspaper men were called in on special preview which at- tended and gave their o. K, to the impersonation.
 1t was Frank Redick, another actor. who hit so close to the voice peculiarities of Mayor Jimmy Walk CT that New Workers refused to be- lieve that it was not the playboy- mayor himself.
 Redick had 9 slight advantage, in as much as Walker appears fre- quently as speechmaker. The ac- tor attended half a dozen meetings and banquets at which Walker spoke, and then hurried off to prac- tice his imitation.
 Peter De Cordoba, himself of Spanish blood, was cast as the king of Spain because he had working knowledge of the kings voice,
 Reynolds Evans went in as King Carol after listening to phonograph records and sound tracks from the movie reels.
 So 1t has gone-and so it goes on at the moment.
 But it's just the beginning. The time may not be far off when actors will be as thick as newspaper reporters at public affairs, making notes of the words and catching the methods of pronuncia- ton and vocal infection-then dash- ing back to a studio to make mi micked record.
 This am told, is the first experi- ment in Q radio newsreel wherein an actual episode in the news is recre- ated, with the exact words of all concerned and the drama of the sit- uation stressed.
 There have been, of course--and
