The first returns in the Literary Digest Presi- dential poll came from the five States of Indiana New York Ohio Pennsylvania and West virginia The total votes in the five States were Hoover, 2S1s3: Roosevelt 27654 However, an analysis of the votes show that about 40 per cent of those who voted for Roosevelt in the Literary Digest poll had voted for Hoover in 1928. On the other hand aoout 6 per cent of the Hoover vote was cast for smith in 1928 If these drifts were applied to the fuli vote of the five States they would give all Of them to Roosevelt by decisive majorities. Roosevelt nao majorities in Ohio Pennsylvania and West Virginia as it
 In New York State about 36 per cent of the Roosevelt votes in the poll came from Hoover sup porters of 1928 and per cent of the Hoover votes came from Smith supporters. The application ol these percentages to the total votes of the State would give Roosevelt more than half million majority in New York.
 The Literary Digest has set out to poll 2o,ooo'ooo votes We shall soon the drift.

MONTREAL, Sept. 27.-Here is the story of man, woman and photograph.
 Henry Prysky came from one of the Central European countries to Quebec some years ago, took up land, cleared 1t and in time built himself a cottage.
 He said to himself, Now the only thing lacking is a wife. A good, strong girl from the old country, one who isn't afraid of hard work"
 He wrote out an advertisement and sent it to newspaper in his home country The result was a deluge of applications.
 All the girls-except one-describ- ed their qualifications. They could milk cows, drive a plow-or pull 1t if need be: they could make butter, bake bread and they knew how to cook, scrub and sew.
 But the letter which caught the bachelor fancy promised none cf these useful things. It was "beau- tifuIly written" as he said later. He answered it, asking for a pho- toeraph of the writer.

Tests Measure Effect Of Weather on Cotton

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27. = How rapidly weather lowers the grade of cotton in the fields has been determined by the Federal Depart ment of Agriculture in a series of color tests.
 Exposure of unpicked cotton has heretofore been known to lower the grade, but tests on a number of tagged bolls in South Carolina field revealed how fast the wealth ering proceeds.
 Each day for a long period sam ples were picked and subjected to color measurements, the last sample to grade in the white grades being picked on the eighteenth day. From that time on the samples graded progressively lower until they finally became so low in color that they could not be graded at all by the official color standards.

Cancellation or revision of tne war debts by the United States would be folly-unless the United States got something in return.
 That something could and should be reduction of ornaments by the debtor nations.
 But if militaristic Europe can't see it that way then let them repudiate the debts.
 Indeed if repudiation it may turn out to be comfortable thing for us-and the next best thing to armaments reduction as a preserver of world peace.

C. HI IL d r E N
By LILLIAN COX ATHEY.

OYSTER
T INDIANS taught the white settler the
value of the oyster as food. The
oyster was a great luxury in Eu-
i rope then and it is today. Is 1t any
wonder the first settlers were i'm
pressed with the abundance before
them? No thought was given to the
possibility that the supply could be ex-
hausted. On the Damariscotta River in
Maine, where no oysters are found to-
day, there is a mound containing about
100000 bushels of shells. The red
men dried oysters and used them as a
medium Of exchange with inland neigh
bors. At many places great mounds OF
the shells tell of their use in prehistoric
times.
The oyster mother lays about 60,000.-
600 eggs each year. The oyster infant
forms in the egg after it is discharged
into the water by its mother. When 1t
matches 1t is barely big enough to be
seen by the naked eye. From the first
it is a free swimmer. though feeble.
Soon 1t Is covered with bristles which
beat in unison, enabling the oyster to
keep afloat and propelling it along until
it gets within a tidal current which
takes it long way from home and
mother.
AS the shell begins to form. it is too
heavy to carry, and the little oyster
must settle down to a sedentary life.
Unless it finds clean oyster bed, with
shells, gravel and free from mud, 1t per-
ishes. If fortunate, it will anchor to
another shell, or some object on the bed.
Here, if all goes well, it may remain
from two to five years.
Food must come to the oyster. Small
particles suspended in the water. minute
plants called diatoms, are carried by
the current, dropping like a fine
shower. Thirty-five gallons of water
must pass through the wonderful sieve
like gills, the particles Of food are left
in the mouth and the water passes out
again.
Having no way to protect itself from
its enemies, the oyster falls victim to
the clever starflsh, who opens the shell
with her suction arms, turns her
stomach inside out and consumes the
tender oyster. She restores her stomach
to its proper place and leaves the
gaping shell. Schools of drumflsh,
with teeth like cobblestones, grind the
helpless ones to bits, and the drill, a
marine snail with q tongue as tough
