Man-Eating Fish

Dragging Abel ashore, Ramon
rushed again to the rescue.
Once more he beat off the croco-
die, but by this time the carl
hes, tiny man-eating fish, had
scented the blood and arrived
to complete the deadly work.
These caribes, also called
piranhas, were reported by
Theodore Roosevelt when he
came back from his eXplora-
ton of the River of Doubt.
They are about the fiercest
and most voracicus things
alive, when you consider they
run less than a foot in sieze.
But they have teeth which
cut off flesh like scissors from
man, beast or fish.
The shark experience came
to a party which included the
motion picture actress Ann
Harding during a sail in the
waters near Havana. The boat
was disabled and a Cuban
boatman undertook to swim
to shore-with the native in
difference to sharks which no
doubt gives rise to the con-
viction which many tourists
hold that sharks don't attack
swimmers in. motion, or that
they seem to be able to differ
entiate between native and
strangers. Such was not the
case in this instance, and the
boatman became their prey.
This controversy about man
eating sharks is a perennial.
When it came up recently John
Chapman Hilder. writing in
Popular Science Monthly. told

SeIf-COntrOl

If you cannot control your
self, you cannot expect to con-
troll others.
You may create scenes and
otherwise carry on with a high
hand to get what you want, but
what you gain will be little in
the end.
That sort of tactics creates
antagonism and is selfish.
Who are you that you should
have what you want rather
than the other fellow?
And how your children will
take it out on you some day
in return for the exhibitions
you make of high temper before
them!
Children are even more OBJ
servant than older people.
What they do is more or less
a reflection of what they see.

MARRY-GO-ROUND
BY Helen Rowland

a defenselesS man to kiss her
but not until after the last kiss.
Intuition is neither a strictly
feminine nor a strictly mascu-
line gift. But a Woman's lntu1-
ton gets so much more practice
than a mans does, because no
man ever TELLS her anything
until he knows she's guessed it.
After a few years of the tor
menting hazards Of free-lancing
in love, even the most indepen-
dent girl will turn gratefully to
the surety of marriage, and sign
on the dotted line with sigh
of relief.
Chickens will always continue
to cross the road; and men
probably will aways continue to
jay-walk on the primrose path,
in the careless assurance that
they can dodge fate, or escape
being run down by woman, at
the last moment.
You can't sell a man a hat
by telling him that it makes
him look cute and boyish, any
more than you can sell a girl
