THE PiSCATORIAL
PHENOMENON

We may throw some light
on a phenomena which ac-
cording to a dispatch is puz-
zling the inhabitants of the
small coast town of Nelscott,
Oregon where millions of
small silvery fish are con-
gesting the waters for miles
along the seashore. This
NAV be an untimely invasion
of grunion Of which from the
earliest times the Southern
California coast has had a
monopoly.
The grunion appear at a
certain season of the year,
in the spring and in the
night when the moon fulls.
The coming of the fish is
predicted with almost the
accuracy with w h i c h an
eclipse is foretold. Before
midnight the beaches from
Santa Monica d ow n are
jammed with thousands of
automobiles Men, women
and children in long, dense
lines await the coming OF
the silvery masses which the
tide washes up on the sand
The grunion is a highly
delicious fish, but of course
is never obtainable in the
markets. Great numbers OF
them are cooked and eaten
on the beaches. They sell
dom appear on more than
two nights and then vanish
to be seen no more for a
year.
"Grunion nights" are re-
garded by Los A ng e e S
wives with suspicion, as pre-
texts of husbands to remain
out all night. Some women
are so skeptical as to doubt
whether there is such a fish
as the grunion.

Defective chimneys a r e
one of the most frequent
causes of fires in dwellings.
All chimneys should be built
with sound thick walls and
preferably lined with fire
clay flue lining. Woodwork
should not be built into or
in direct contact with Chin
ney masonry. Chimneys dis
integrate most quickly at the
top; owing to the action of
the weather and hot gases.
Wide cracks may form or
mortar joints open up
through which sparks can
pass. Sparks are particu-
larly dangerous if the cracks
are below the roof. Cracks
and loose joints should be
filled with cement mortar.
If the chimney is b a d y
cracked or if the bricks are
eaten away, tear down the
brick work to solid construc-
ton and rebuilt it with hard
burned brick laid in cement
mortar. Cracks may be To-
Gated in a chimney by build
a smudge fire in the fur
mace or fireplace and cov-
ering the chimney with a
board or we sack so as to
cause the S m o k e to filter
through defects in the brick
work.

LARGEST AIRSHIP IN

the progress of construction

The U. S. S. Akron, the
worlds largest airship, now
has nearly half its fabric
outer cover in place, and
seven of its eight $50 horse
power engines have been in
stalled in motor rooms in the
hull. Doping is also in pro

ship has been covered with
the aluminium dope which
gives lighter-than-air ships
their silvery appearance as
they glide through the sky.
Provisions for visitors have
been made and one end OF
the dock and a portion of
the west side of the structure
have been made available

INVESTORS in
DEFUNCT FIRM
i. TO GET REBATE

LOS ANGELES, Aug IA. U.H -
DepoSitors in the detunc; United
States Building and Loan associa-
tion will receive approximately 80
cents on the dollar, w. H. Comstock,
receiver declared today as checks,
representing 10 per cent OF the
claims were to be mailed to some
10000 investors.
The company, controlled by Gill
bert H. Beesemyer, collapsed when
the financier was convicted of de-
falcations in connection with his
management of the Guaranty Build
ing and Loan company.
Comstock announced he had ap-
proved S7,199,1 in claims SO far.
Contingent claims of Sl6l ,506 were
also presented, he reported The re-
ceiver said 10 per cent of the total
is represented in the checks to be
mailed.
Distribution of dividends will be
periodically, he declared, coming
six months apart. This has been
necessitated. Comstock said because
of the lack of market to sell the
firms realty holdings.
