Fiddler Crabs Fiddling.

Except as bait for the fisherman,
there is no known excuse for the ex-
istence Of the fddlercrab, which
abounds in the mud flats of the South
Atlantic coast He frequents the de-
serted portions Of beaches, and colo
nizes under the barnacled wharves,
drilling the wet sands with thousands
OF tiny twisting tunnels. At the mouth
OF his home he stands, poised, tense.
And all Of sudden, for no apparent
reason. the ungainly claw moves jerkily
up and down. 1t at once becomes ap-
parent why he is known as a fiddler
1t is as If he were drawing an unseen
bow across an invisible violin. What
ever it is that is responsible for the
fiddling activities seems to influence all
the crabs in the vicinity. and it would
seem as if they were part of one great
orchestra. Some Of the shore natives
insist that this is an exchange q
signals among them.

 This wet-and-dry division was not fore seen when the wet Hearst newspapers launched the Garner boom here For time, the Speakers candidacy was purely Hearst adventure.

 Then the dry MT. McAdoo stepped in and the whole situation quickly changed. What ever MT. Gamers personal stand, his can didacy in California has become a battle front for the dry organization.

Golden Advertising Eggs.
(Port Angeles News)


 In defense of advertising in good times and hard Gilbert T. Hodges, President of the Advertising Federation of America, has made out a good case. He does not ask business, which has reasons enough to be hardboiled to take the word of advertising man for it but has a convincing array of figures and specific instances of business gains in depres- sions to prove his statements.
 Advertising campaigns that were not curtailed because of the depression sold a million gas and electric refrigerators last year. manufacturer of oil burners increased his advertising in 1880 and increased his sales 56 per cent. Another increase in advertising 1881 resulted in another sales jump of 37 per cent.
 Records kept of the business and advertising programs of 120 American corporations over period of IT years furnish conclusive proof of the folly of cutting advertising appropriations when business tightens up.
 Sixty of these corporations did not relax their merchandising efforts for instant during the IT years. In each of the IT years their advertising expenditures increased average of 16 per cent With what results?
 Seventeen years ago many of them were small struggling merchants manufacturers. Today every one of them is numbered among the foremost busi- ness houses of the United States. They have mul- tiplied their assets four times and their combined net profits last year were thrice those of 1915

Drys May Yet Compromise.
Seattle Times.)

Professing difference to honest public opinion, Bishop James Cannon, Jr. says that if Prohibition is to be reconsdered it must be by State Legisa- trres rather than by conventions which could be manipulated or controlled" Many tests have proved the ability of the Ant-Saoon League to manipulate and control State Legislatures and, of course, that's the only kind of manipulation and control that will do for Bishop Cannon
 On the other hand, Mir Pussyfoot Johnson urges the alcoholic ghost dancers" to decide this ques ton by votes in their Congressional districts adding that if The Literary Digest poll really represents public opinion, "the booze hounds should have no difficulty in electing Congress that will attend to their thirst" MT. Pussyfoot also admits that he is stewed-"too stewed in democracy" he says, ito compel the people to continue Prohibition if they don't want it."

SYNOPSIS: Jenny Revell ovcrhears conversation be- tween her cousin, Georgie and Garth Agency which she be- lieves refers to Georgie's secret engagement with Eddie Town send. She is unhappy, because she liked Agency when she first met him that evening, and he seems to prefer Georgie. Un- known to Jenny, Agency has been testing out Georgie's loy- alty to her employer, Grafton Matching. She has an unusual job, complicated by Matching's eccentric regulations, such as the threat of discharging any woman in his employ who mar ries. Gecrgie has promised to marry Eddie tomorrow, since he agrees to keep the mar riage secret SO that she can go Cn with her work, which pays very well. She has made plans for the marriage, which call for Jenny's cooperation. Undiscovered in the next room, Jenny hears Agency say to Georgie, "T'm going to justi- fy myself" And then, Good night, Miss Loyalty, I'm for given then"

lumber-room into a dressing room for Eddie. She had made lels- urely way downtown.
 Sitting now on her bench, Jen- ny looked across the snapdragon bed and tried to identify the build ing from the back. She saw man lower a green blind of win dow and thought that might well be the room in which this furtiye wedding would take place.
 Furtive! She caught her breath. She had no right to call it that Georgie couldn't ever do anything fuTTtive And if she and Eddie had agreed that the job at Matching's must be kept at any and every cost-and certainly it made a dlf- ference that Eddy was soon to go so far away and for a whole year Jenny, in a tangle, stopped har- herself.
 A mana tall, slim built man swung round the corner and came past the snapdragons. Jen- ny's finger under the tabby cats imperiously liften chin went rigid.
 A mild clamor went up in her heart-will be stop-will he pass on? And then, like an axe hacking at the roots of budding tree, there pounded in upon her the knowledge that if Georgie's s secret were to be Kept, Garth Av- eney must pass on his way with out seeing Georgie's cousin there at all. ..

CHAPTER 8 DEAD SECRET

q s-pose so, I'm glad you feel ashamed of yourself, though" Geor- gie was saying to Agency.
 q don't know that I feel asham- ed exactly After all you agree that I wasn' given any choice. But you've been magnificent. He ought to thank his stars for you" Jenny heard Agency answer.
 '4Ie won't. Takes me for grant, ed. Goodnight.
 Jenny burrowed down deep in her pillows. He" she had no doubt, was Eddie. And Garth Av- eney was quite right. Eddie ought to thank his stars for his splendid Georgie. He probably did. Jenny really couldn't agree that he took Georgie one scrap for granted. And now Garth Agency, dismissed, emp ty handed, was driving alone through the gleaming streets. He would not carry even the shadow of laughter now.
 The cool linen comforted Jen- ny's aching eyes. It was not that she was crying-oh, no, not that, only-only it was bitter hard to care so much for someone who, whether she wanted him or not, was Georgie's.
 "Jennyl"
 Georgie had clicked on the light and stood amazed in the doorway. Jenny struggled up.
 T had a headache, Georgie, and I felt I couldn't face the Cres- cendo, so I came straight home. MT. Vale didn't mind bit; some friends of his, stage -people, were going on there, and he joined them. Anyway, it was no fun for him once you and MT. Agency couldn't stay"
 "Aveney?"
 Georgie laughed She sounded pleased, discomfited, amused, all of one. She came and sat on the edge of the bed.
 Garth Agency brought me back from Rochester Gate-I didn't feel like the Crescendo, either"
 MT. Agency is awfully inter ested in you, isn't he?" It was what Jenny had determined not to say, and she had said it.
 "Oh-Aveney" repeated Georgie. He's a queer fish. But he's a good sport. I'll tell you all about him one day" With that she brushed him out of the conversa- tion. i've something far more thrilhng to talk about now. Ed and I are getting married, Jen, tomorrow. At midday. Eds fly ing tonight, but he seems to think he can be back in time The ceremony is to be kept a sec- ret but you must come"
 "Oh, Georgie, I'm so glad you are marrying Ed after all"
 But you dear little fool, whom else did I ever think of marry ing?"
 "As long as no one actually spies on me during the next week, the risk isn't so terrible" Georgie continued, and lit a cigarette. After that, with Ed away, can always spin some yarn-any yarn. Even" she giggled suddenly = that it was you Eddie married not mel"
 She sobered suddenly and sat staring at her cousin.

Welsh NatiOnalists.
Manchester Guardian.0

The nationalists of Wales may be envied for their abounding ardour and confidence They have form ed themselves into a party which can hardly yet have had time either to influence greatly or to measure public opinion. Their campaign of pro- paganda has hardly broken ground But they have already drafted new Constitution for Wales and they held meeting at Aberystwyth at the end of
 last week to stroke it into form. An unofficial ac- count gives as the cardinal point in the ConSttu- tion Wales claim to be free equal, self-govern-
 ing partner in the British Commonwealth of Ma tons, with allegiance to the Crown and with recogn
 ion of the Crowns right of legislation dealing with Imperial defense There have always been ardent Welsh nationalists who desired for their country more power over exclusively Welsh affairs and in particular more power to develop national cul- ture and traditions But how many of them want to go as far as the Welsh National Party?
