Paul Journee asked me what
I did and I told him that I was
a workman out of a job. He
asked me if I had ever boxed
and I told him mo-" He invited
me to try it at a camp which he
was conducting nearby, so off ]
went with Monsieur Journee to
his quarters, where I soon took
to the exercises that professional
fighters must go through.
And then I met another man
who was to have an immense
influence on my career-Leor
See, famous in athletics as a
trainer, manager and promoter
Of fiStics. He was even more
enthusiastic than Journee, though
I told him frankly that I hardly
knew how to wear boxing gloves
properly.
Won Others by X. O.'S
Within a month of meeting me,
M. See took me to Paris-one
of the goals of my travel dreams
and seconded me in my first
public bout, a 10-round affair
with Leon Sebillo. I did not
realize it then, but my opponent
was what you call a push
over" We crudely mixed it up
for a minute or two, and down
he went for the full count.

He pushed them into the

her.

THE Waxted girl, eh?" said
Stevens as they rode down in
the elevator. Did she tip you
off to anything?"
"She gave me the first lead"
said Durant.
Must be fun getting leads

Durant looked at him hard.

told the driver. "No, wait a

Around
The
Capital
BY JOHN SNURE JR.-

It was at one of those after
noon teas at Major John Stuart
Hunts apartment that Boyd
Craft appeared carrying a small
package. Opened, it contained
q terrapin which had not been
fixed a la Maryland.
Through the long hours OF the
night, the major nursed the new
pet and tried to get it to sleep
but the old shellback refused to
pull in for a nap.
The next morning the major
carefully wrapped his pet ana
took it to the nearest park.
When he was in the act Of un-
wrapping the terrapin to let it
meander in it's native habitat
once more, a woman approached
to ask:
"Sir, what have you there?"
The major replied:
''Merely q terrapin, madam"
Said the woman:
"Sir, 1 have a mind to call the
officers, and so I would if /
thought you had been torment

At least, can get into Crelli-

that I can get him out on the

leave me there too long with
him, will you?"
He shook hsi head. "Gertie,
you're the reatest girl in the
world"
Is that so? I'd rather be the
cutest. But let it go. More WIS.,

Durant crossed the room as
the doorbell rang a second time.
He called an inquiry and

threw open the door. He eyed
with satisfaction the two husky

tenant of the Homicide Squad.
You didn't take long," he

Value of Learning

German Hugo Hespen, Library
of Congress employe, arrived in
the United States, unskilled in
the language of the land, but
determined he could get by.
One of his first moves was
to enter a barber shop for the
sole purpose of getting a hair
cut.
The barber talked. Hugo
failed to understand. He merely
nodded acquiescence. When the
barber stopped talking Hugo
had been given "the works" as
was indicated by his bill.
Then it was that he started
on an intensive course of train
ing in the English language.

Everyday Psychology
Sensation, Perception.
BY DIR. JESSE W. sPRoWLs.

Suppose we talk in terms Of what a
psychologist knows. Or rather what he
thinks he knows. You step on tack,
accidentally touch hot radiator, hear
the back-fire Of a truck. What OF It?
These are sensations. mean by sensa-
ton simply one thing-awareness. II
an extra" comes out telling about some
unusual event, that's not a sensation
from a psychological point Of view. It's
called a sensation in newspaper circles
It's simply an arousal of curiosity!
A curiosityl That's something differ
ent. It's the mid-step between sensa-
ton and a perception. Let us see; a
perception is some organized conscious
experience, organized around the thing
that has just happened and all the
other similar things that have happened
before. In a somewhat special sense,
it may mean something that you have
imagined plus what you have once or
many times experienced.
A sensation is the aWareness Of the
presence of something that has just
happened. A perception is an organiza-
ton of your sensations, past and
present. plus your deductions of what
may happen.

Flamingo.
By LILLIAN COX ATHEY.

Flamingo.
TLAMINGOES are independent
l. thinkers. They are the only
members Of their family to build
i mud-nests. Their cousins. the
ducks and storks, insist on the
regulation nursery Of sticks, grass and
leaves.
You can see the famlngoes were
among the first silt walkers. Another
idea we have copied Have you ever
thought of how many professions we
have copyrighted that are being used
in a more perfected form by the orig
inal inventors? The suspension bridge,
balloon and diving bell of the spider?
The stucco house of the mud-dauber?
The paper and perfect insulation OF the
hornets home? Why, the butterflies
and moths have been broadcasting since
the world began!
However, we are talking about the
interesting hamingoes. They are never
so happy as when standing knee-deep
In water, where an abundance OF water
plants may be had for the digging.
They are social creatures and gather
in great hocks. Wise to the ways of
man, they station alert sentries along
the shore. When you see an army OF
aamingoes fishing for their food, you
will see the reason for this precaution.
Every head is plunged beneath the

a good five-card suit and desiring to
ascertain whether South has heart sup
port as part of his acceptance of the
slam try. South naturally completes
the picture of his hand by bidding six
clubs. North took this to seven, credit
ing his partner with little more in
the unbid suits than he actually held.
One South player passed this, fig
uring that they had reached a noble
contract, and that his power to ruff
out the heart suit would cinch the slam
in clubs The other South calculated
differently. He thought that most of
the competitors would get to seven
clubs, and determined to top that score,
relying on his great club length to
squeeze the opponents if any such play
were necessary. He really expected his
partners hearts to be more solid or for

tender plants and roots from their
moorings.
A low croak, sounded by a sentry. is
in some way communicated instantly
to the busy workers. It Is perfected
wireless. At once every dangling neck
is out of the water. Pretending to be
unconcerned, the birds walk slowly for
few steps, their heads facing over
their shoulders, as If viewing the bits
Of plants floating about. With mucn
loud gaggling, fearful noise, indeed,
and a spreading Of the great crimson
wings, the glorious rosy army rises like
q cloud Of flame into the air.
The fight of the flamingo is worth
travelling far to see. The neck and
legs are extended as far as they can
reach. The wide, pink wings strike
the air with strong, steady strokes. The
birds keep together, and at first you
can hear the roar of their wings. Soon
the flying squadron looks like cloud
of fame against the blur of gray skies.
Gradually it melts into the exquisite
blues and greens Of the evening sunset.
The building sites are called rock
cries. You can always tell the nursery
built by the bride from the one con-
structed by the grandmother. In COM
garrison one is a mud-hut. the other
a mansion. The rookery is selected
with view to privacy and an abund-
ance of food. The builders take their
time, and their delay has often found
them, in a dry season, perched high
III the air with sun n-baked waste about
them.
The flamingo must have been the
model for our steam shovel. The very
long, supple neck bangles above the
spot before the head is plunged under
the water. The strong, sharp bill scoops
up mouthful of soft mud and deposits
it neatly in one spot.
The foundation of the nursery is
usually Is inches in diameter, about Is
inches under water and projects about
inches above it. The cradle Is shaped
to hold the two unusual looking eggs.
They have a chalk overcoat on, and
under it is the blue green shell.
Contrary to belief, the mother sits on
her eggs bird-fashion. It was once be-
neved she made her nest high SO she
could sit upon it and dangle her legs
in the water. She really doubles her
legs under her, while her knees and
feet extend out beyond her tail. Her
long neck twists backward and her head
is buried in the feathers of her back.
The twins are long-legged fluffy
babies, fed on the juice Of clans and
easily digested food. They do not have
their crooked beaks until they are al
most grown.
