down and permitted to dry. after
which It Is ground.
There Is q brtny, sharp smell 70
the typical beach-drifted "Seaweeds"
which many persons find pleasing.
Various formations Of stones and
shells delight the leiSurely seeker
after such things.
One may recall pleasantly that the
collection Of these small trifies was a
real pleasure of youth spent many
years ago by these same waves.
Surely they are the same wavesl
Today there Is no less happiness in
STOPPING over to pick up a perfectly
round pebble which looks for all the
world like a moonstone.
The STOPPING may not be as we'll
done. but the result is none the less
effective.
Up comes the stone between the
thumb and foref1nger.
1t is held admiringly to all the light
there is.
It must be treasured.
The wayfarer knows, however, from
past experience, that back in the city
it viii not have the same luster.
They never do.
Something there is about the wash
Of the waves. the tumbling over the
sand, the glare of the sunbeams, which
keeps such smooth bits of stone
In pristine shape.
Why should they look as bright
back in the city?
They are small. oblong bits of
brown stone found occasionally. which
have yet be rubbed away to the
spherical shape which Nature finally
gives them.
At times perfectly black ones are
higher on the beach.
1t is interesting to speculate that all
the sand of the beaches has been
made from just such rocky forma-
tionS.
Just as none of the typical "sea-
weeds" will do to take home to put in
freSh-water aquarium, so none of
the pretty shells, whether large or
small, should find similar resting
place.
Shells found along the beaches con-
tain too much lime to permit their use
in small home aquaria. Many Of them
are so placed, of course, but that is a
mistake. The leeching out Of the lime
in time harms the water, especially
in the aquarium in which small trop-
ical fishes are kept and in which the
idea is to attain a balanced state, SO
the water is not changed regularly.
Small shells, therefore, should be
gathered for their own sakes, as in
teresting bits of seashore material.
The larger ones-conches and the like
no longer enjoy the vogue as ''parlor
ornaments" which they once had.
Parlors are "out" for one thing, and
also the idea that such things are or
namental when tranSplanted,
No, let the walker by the waves en-
JOY shells, stones, weeds, just as he
does the sun, wind, wave.
He may collect few specimens, but
let them remain simply specimens.
He may find at times odd bits of
cork, swept ashore from how many
miles out he has no way of knowing.
There will be old planks and bits of
boxes bearing strange lettering. None
Of these can he take home, but each
IN its way is interesting. Surely it
ought to be the same with the rest of
them. They are all part of the sea-
shore.

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES Z. TRAcETELL.

Many interesting natural phenom-
ena are to be found on the ocean,
swept beach, especially some miles up
from the popular coast resorts.
Most Of these places are situated
on long sand bars, which extend for
miles on either end OF the ever-pres-
ent board walks.
There is a gradual thinning Of
houses until at last these cease
and nothing much is left except a
few fishermens cottages and blind
or two from which reedbirds are
shot in season.
II the vacationist will 60 a mile
or two farther he will leave civili8a-
ton mostly behind, and be alone
with the sun, the sand, the sea breeze
and the ocean tumbling its white
breakers In with charming and mo-
notonous regularity.
The monotony Of the surf, how
ever, has a charm all its own, and
II the wayfarer chooses to spend
several hours enjoying 1t he can
find nothing more entertaining, If
he happens to ''be that way"
One may feel that the busybody
who is forever in bathing, or fishin'
or sailing, or dancing. really is
missing the best part Of the sea
shore.
Quiet hours alone with the ele-
ments distinctly have their place in
the scheme Of things. It is only
when the urge of physical action is
stilled that the many fine small
things to be found up the beach can
sink into the consciousness, so that
they will be noticed.
One must not be interested even
in making a walking record, If one
wishes to find the shells and sea-
weeds and old bits of cork washed
up by the waves.
The fine thing about this most
simple amusement is that the treas
ures are unnoticed by the many
athletic young persons who occa-
sionally come this way for no other
purpose than to walk to the light
house several miles farther up the
beach.
They are interested only in the
physical feat of walking steadily
along the beach. Mostly they play
ball with inflated spheres many times
too big for pleasant catching. Or
they chase one another along the
sand, or go in bathing, from time
to time.
Mostly they are too busy with
their own affairs to notice the fine
drift of seaweed which has been left
by high tide.
r. +
What curious things the typical
seaweeds are, to be surel Many
of them have small bladders, or pods,
which contain air, and help keep
them afloat in the heavy salt water.
They are interesting manifesto
tons Of plant life, secure In a me-
dium in which the huge majority
Of their brother plants of the world
could not live at all
Sure enough, as one would expect
Of these algae, they possess a thick,
leathery integument, or outer cov-
ering, to ward off the devastating
effects of the brine.
Scientists have studied and named
many different varieties, but for the
average wayfarer the study is too
specialized.
Kelp, curious product, is made
from masses Of seaweed, which is
first burned, and the ash then wet

Nazi Explanations and Alibis.

InlS Is e8pldIldblOu anu hiADl "cCA
in Germany. Chancellor Hitler has
summoned the all-Nazi Reichstag to
meet in special session on Friday, the
thirteenth-ominous combination-to
hear from his own lips an account OF
the blood purge" of June 80 and the
critical events that precipitated and
followed it.
That his puppet parliament will give
"der Fuehrer" vociferous vote OF ap-
proval and renewed confidence is, OF
course, a foregone conclusion. The
fiction that passes for peoples as
sembly is merely an inpotent tool OF
the Nazi regime, suppressed and in
visible for the most part, and hauled
forth from innocuousness only on
those occasions when Hitler feels the
need Of some particularly spectacular
sounding board.
Some inkling of what the ehancel-
lor's defense of recent events will be Is
forthcoming from two sources. One is
Yesterdays clustering broadcast by
Propaganda Minister Goebbels. He
devoted himself to vitriolic attack on
the European foreign press for its
"lies" about Hitler's purge. 1t is
SUFFICIENT comment on Goebbels TRADE
to note that the Foreign Press Asso-
citation, consisting Of accredited corre-
spondents on duty in Berlin, is meet
ing today, to protest, in professional
honor, against the propaganda min
ister's charge that they have misled
the outside world respecting events In
side Germany.
Indirectly there emanates from
Hitler himself, through an interview
with DR.. Alfred j. Pearson, former
American Minister to Poland, a state
ment which presumably foreshadows
what the chancellor will tell the world
from his Reichstag roStrum. Accord
ing to DR.. Pearson, who narrates in
the Paris Herald conversation with
Hitler on July 6, the chancellor
struck ruthlessly at traitors" IN order
to save Germany from 'the tragedy
of civil war" and Europe itself from
resultant "chaoS and confusion" He
had no alternative, Hitler contends,
but to be true to my oath of office
and keep faith with my people, for
whose welfare am responsible" The
Na1 chief expresses the hope that
Germany's critics will be fair" and
withhold Judgment until the facts
and truth in the case are known"
To date the German authorities
have kept the world-and the Ger
man people, too-in blind ignorance
Of the facts and truth in the case"
Even now, nearly a fortnight after
the purge" the Reich is not exactly
informed as to just how many victims
it claimed, or why, and who they
were. There have been sweeping
charges of treason" and other high
crimes and misdemeanors, but no
proofs. The tale of a foreign
powers" completely in plot to over
throw HitIerism remains an accusa-
ton unsupported as yet by a shred
of substantiating evidence.
Chancellor Hitler will have the
world for a forum on Friday. The
nations which have been fed on "lieS,"
according to Goebbels, will expect
something more than glittering gen.
eralities for German home consump-
ton ii there is to be any revision of
the condemnation which has been
visited upon the Reich from all quar-
ters of the civilized globe.

SHOOTING STARS.

Says Uncle Jim.

Says Uncle Jim.
Says my Uncle Jim, in serious tone,
Sometimes it is best to let bygones
alone;
Apologies ought to be made when
they're due,
When sincerity calls, and they ought
be few.
Sometimes such an eloquent style
they'll provide
They almost seem like they were
pointin' with pride;
Your own self-approvaI is what you
must win
AS you solemnly VOW not to do it
ag'in!"
"Remorse is no good If it's told in a
way
Like that of an actor rehearsing a
play.
He may take an encore despite your
advice:
Your scolding he likes cause you do
1t so nice.
It's upon your own conscience that
you must rely
For a record that may be approved
by and by.
A fine explanation seems shabby and
thin
Unless you resolve not to do it ag'in'."
