The r. F. C. finally made it
possible for Chicago teachers
to get seven months back pay
.. When it comes to salaries,
Chicago is certainly "late for
school,"
The teachers were beginning
to believe that Columbus was
wrong. From where they
stood the world was flat.
They had to do so much
borrowing, that their creditors
called the schools, institutions
of Loaning."
While the students were
wondering how to get "Grade
A" on their report cards, the
teachers were wondering how
to get it in a milk bottle.

Along with other old-time
exhibits at the Fair, Chicago

slowly.

pa. It's something that's given
to very few people. Very few
couples live to celebrate the
fiftieth anniversary of their
marriage. Yet here we sit to-
night, doing that very thing.
And we're still as happy as we
were the day we were married"
The old man sighed.
Eyes, ma" he agreed, you're
right. But still there's some
thing a little sad about it all.
Fifty years seems so long when
you say it. And yet it seems
like yesterday that I was court
ing you. Remember"
His wife, still rocking, gazed
at him fondly.
"You ask me if I remember,
George. You know very we'll I
do. Very sweet, those counting
days. But you were always
sweet, dear. You've been the
best husband any woman ever
had"

fire with deliberate movements.

far as to say that. No doubt
there have been better hus-

woman.

William Wellman, the director,
and a most avid humorist, has to
go to court to prove that he didn't
engineer an asserted laugh plot to
get Irene DUNES "stand-in," Mary
Minter Bitgood, to sit in an cleo
trically wired chair on the set.
Because Mrs. Bitgood wants $780,
900 from Wellman now. She
claims this big joke cost the life

their practical joking have been
Charles Chaplin and his three sat-
elites - Harry Croker, Harry
DArrast and Charlie Lederer.

Ben Hecht, have gained quite a

course, the ribber, Vince Barnett,
has made money out of making
monkeys of people.
A "clever" chap recently cost
Paramount plenty of money when
he unlocked w. C. Fields trailer,

and sans Fields. Production was
held up three hours while the car
returned to town for the trailer

just kept on sleeping.

look at the tall, distinguished
looking man and shook his head.
"SOrry, Evelyn" said Datig,
"I'd like to use your friend in
the college president part, but
he just isn't the type!"
Datig'S face is still crimson!
One of the more expensive gags

called horsehead. The names given to
this fish have some reasonable excuse,
and the variety of them at once shows
that the fish has wide distribution.
The iridescence of their silvery
bodies is far more lovely than that OF
mother of pearl, which their sides so
closely resemble. In the bright sun
light the fishes flash about in the
clear water, and as the sun strikes
them there is a flash like that OBJ
tanned with the sun against a mirror.
When watching the fishes sport
about in the water there are times
they go to the sandy bottom to polish
their silver coats. There is no otner
reason that they should be cleaning
and polishing them, unless they feel
that such coats of mail should be
fully appreciated and cared for.
Many speak of the moonflsh as a
sluggish, lazy rascal that goes about
trying to "high-hat" neighbors. The
fishes love to gather in large numbers
in shady places. 1t is in these spots
that fishermen who have studied the
whims and traits of the moonflsh go
with their seines and get large guam
titles.
This moonfish is, perhaps, the most
common and best known of the fam
lily. Perhaps it is because OF his form
and color. And as it is a delicious
food fish it will be remembered for the
flavor of its meat long after its hand
some coat has been forgotten.
On both coasts of tropical America,
from Cape Cod to- Brazil and from
Lower California to Peru, southward,
you can see many of them flashing
about near the sandy shores.

smartest was Wigglenose,
He it was, yod&sin remember,
who was not fooled by his
mother when they first began to play
the game Of bump-on-alog. He was
always the leader when they played

his wobbly little nose was no better
than those of his brothers and sisters,
but he was the quickest to learn what

Mrs. Peter was very proud of him.
OF course she was proud Of all those

of Wigglenose. How could she help

"Poohi" exclaimed Peter, but he
puffed himself out little and looked
pleased
For a few days there had been per-
feet happiness in the Briar-patch.
There was still happiness, but not
quite so much of it. The spirit of
discomfort had entered, or perhaps it
was the soundless calling Of the Great
World. Anyway when just at dusk
one evening mother thumped the
signal to follow her out to patch
of sweet clover only five bunnies
came. She thumped and thumped,
but the missing one did not come nor
was there a thump in reply. She
made a hasty search Of the Briar-
patch in vain. Then she knew for
certainty. The missing one had
wandered away He had left home to
see the Great World. She sighed.
She feared what might happen to him
and she hoped for the best.
1T had to be-" said she to herself,
'It always has to be. I knew it was

Then she hastily locked over the
children to see which one was missing.
Again she sighed. but this was a

he probably will be the next"
Then she led the five out for their
supper of sweet clover.
The next morning there were but
four little Bunnies in the dear Ole
Briar-patch, but one Of the four was
Wigglenose. Another had gone to
find place in the Great World. The
four talked it over.

of American institutions" No one
doubts that they wished to hit Tugwell
by implication.
Mr.. Roosevelt and his advisers ap-
parently recognize the probability that
Republicans will attempt to make a
campaign issue of Tugwell, and they
hope to prevent it by sending him on
a round of public appearances.
Observers in Washington are agreed,
generally, that DR.. Tugwell will steal
the show from all the other new
dealers" touring the country at the
same time. Even the colorful Gen.
johnson may find it difficult to match
the handsome, smiling, poised pro-
fesSor.
Fresh from his encounter with the
Senate in what Senator Norris of
Nebraska described as the most COM
plete show I have ever witnessed
nothing lacking but the music"-and
in which he was the principal actor,
Tugwell should be a drawing card of
the first rank.
Perhaps the administration calcu-
lates they will come to see him out
of curiosity, remain to be charmed by
his personality. and go away with a
different conception of brain trusters. :"
