Baby, Dead 20 Years,
Object of Police Quiz

NEW YORK, Oct. 10 G.N.S).
Police we're hopeful today they
would be able to brush aside the
mists Of time and solve the death
OF a three-day-old baby 20 years
ago.
With microscope, X-ray and
other modern equipment, police
department experts sought to de,
termine whether the hands of a
stranger or natural causes killed
the infant before it was entombed
in the plaster of the ceiling Of a
Brooklyn tenement.
Two theories presented them
selves concerning the baby's
death.
One was that the child was born
to an unwed mother. Driven fran
tic by fear of ostracism and con-
tempt, she may have killed the
baby. perhaps by fracturing its
tiny neck. Then perhaps, she may
have wrapped the body in towels
and brown paper, stuffed the
corpse into a small cardboard box
and placed it in the makeshift
mauSoleum of plaster and wood.
The second theory is that the

Times Adventure Club

One of our veteran club mem
bers Nadine Davis, of 1409 Six
teenth st. N. w., tells us an
adventure story. Here it is.
She says:
"This happened to me years
ago but 1 still remember it as
vividly as when it happened.
II had a cousin who was very
miSchievouS as boys usually are.
He liked best to tease Laura and
me. One day he asked us to
come on out in the canoe with
him. This was not an ordinary
canoe. My father built it for
himself, but he let my cousin
use it. They were the only two
who could paddle it.
"After a lot of refusals we
finally were persuaded to go
with him to the canoe. This
distance was short. Not any
place was the water over our
heads. No sooner had we gotten
started when he turned the
canoe towards the middle of the
lake. Laura could swim but /
could not. She jumped over and
the next / knew found myself
going down, down, dOwn-That
was awful. Ny cousin finally
got me to shore. He laughed so
much / could have cracked that
canoe into pieces. / was spared
the trouble because a few days
later it sank and it is now at
the bottom of Twin Lakes"
One Of the club members,
Rosa May Robey, Of Upper
Marlboro, Md, writes:
81 have enjoyed being a mem
ber of your famous club. /

column. 1 am IL years old,
and my birthday is September,

SCRUB BUCKS
A CURSE TO
SHEEP RAISING
Fourth Annual Ram Show And
Sale To Be Held Here On
Saturday, July 7th

Scrub bucks are curse, nothing
more, nothing less" declares JOS. M.
Vial, Animal Husbandman, University
of Maryland Extension Service, Col
lege Park, Maryland. In recent in
terview he says "Scrub bucks and
sheep killing dogs are in the same
class, and of the two, 1 am not so
sure but what the sheep killing cur
is saint compared to the scrub buck.
The sheep killing dog skulks into the
midst of your band of sheep, does his
dirty work, and is gone. You are all
impressed with the damage done, the
old shotgun comes into play, the flock
owner swears he will drop him in
his tracks on sight. Yet the same man
will often permit a scrub ram to
continually take toll far in excess
of the dog menace. The unfortunate
part of the mongrel ram is that he
reproduces; still his lambs are not
OF the type, quality, or conformation
to command a respectable price on
the market. He oftentimes knocks off
as much as $500 per head of the
lambs he sires as compared with
lambs sired by thick, low-set pure
bred rams. The fleece transmitted
to his get is inferior, of low value and
lighter in weight. The flock contin-
ually grows less and less profitable.
You can't be blamed for the outrages
committed by sheep killing dogs, but
harboring a scrub ram can be pin
ned onto you, if guilty. You natural
ly reach for the gun to stop the dog
nuisance, why not whet up the knife
and assure yourself of no further
scrub buck damage"
Mr.. Vial is managing the Fourth
Annual Purebred Ram Show and Sale
which will be held in Pocomoke on
Saturday, July 7th at LOO P. M.
Sheepmen everywhere are invited to
attend.
