Charles Nicholson He looked the
picture of cool comfort in q white
and blue striped shirt, green
dotted tie and gray trousers. In
his low drawl, he continued:
I'VE got one Of the letters
today. It's just like the chain
letters and 1t goes on to say
that the strain of the preSiden-
tial duties has broken the health
of the man in the White House.
1t points out the humane thing
to do would be to vote against
him 1T the next election.
"The letter, after passing out
this erroneous information,
asked that the reader keep the
chain unbroken and send q copy
of it to five of his friends.
"Now the man in the White
House never enjoyed better
health. He sleeps like = baby
and eats like a hired man. He
is well tanned from his week
end trips. But that's the thing
we have to put up with. That's
politics"
The they" whom Mr.. Nicholson
referred to are the Republicans.
The story was his own way Of let
ting it be known that the 1886
presidential campaign had opened.
Realizing the going" is to be
much harder in next years cam
paign than in 1882. Mr.. Michel,
son has oiled up his typewriter
and prepared for a long, long siege
OF hard work. He is credited,
more than any other one man,
with paving the way for President
Roosevelt's 1882 victory wit
timely speeches, statements and
radio addresses, which were usu-
ally delivered by orators in the
Democratic ranks.
Charley Nicholson has virtually
chained himself to his desk and
typewriter until after the cam
paign. His shoulders are round
and somewhat stopped from lean
ing over typewriter.
The Democratic press agent Is
of the opinion that former Presi
dent Hoover is the logical man fol-
the Republicans to run against
President Roosevelt. He said:
"Of course, neither Mr..
Hoover nor anyone else the
enemy puts up will have a
chance of winning, but it would
be an excellent way Of getting
Mr.. Hoover out of the picture"
Mr.. Nicholson then showed how
the Republican press of the nation
is doing my work for me-" He
displayed copy after copy Of
enemy papers, editorials OF
which were given to attacks on
the Roosevelt administration. He
said:
"The front page stories are in
line with the editorials, but
when you open the same papers
to the financial pages, there's .
different story.
1.-THE financial pages tell Of
an upswing in business, gains in
employment, and 50 forth, which
offset the front page stories and
the editorials. We couldn't do
any better"

Name 'Nimrod" From Bible

Hunters are called Nimrods from
Genesis 1919 where Hams grandson
Nimrod Is referred to as a
mighty hunter before the Lord"
The preceding verse says that MINI
rod "began to be a mighty one In
the EARTH" Bible scholars are not
agreed as to just what is meant
by Nimrod's being mighty hunter
before the Lord" Some commenta-
tors accept this description in the
literal sense of one who hunts ami
mails. But "gibbor," the Hebrew
word translated, hunter" In the
Scriptures also means hero, and
therefore some authorities inter-
pref the phrase as signifying SIM
ply that Nimrod was a great war
rior. At any rate, Nlmrod has be-
come the romantic name for hunter.

Cannibalistic Crickets

The mole cricket, an insect that
looks like field cricket and acts
like mole, is a serious pest in the
many cultivated fields of the South.
These crickets are cannibals. At
the end of any mole-cricket fight
the victors devOur the vanquished.
These crickets also feed on small
er insects and other animal life,
which leads them to frequent the
edges of streams, ponds, bitches,
and depressions where sediment Is
deposited as water evaporates. In
sects and other low forms of ami
NAL life concentrate in such places,
offering the mole cricket a varied
animal diet.

Four Species Of Birds
Still Keep Nests Secret

Only four or FIVE kinds of birds
of the United States still build nests
and hatch their eggs in spots I'M
known to man, says the Smithsonian
Institution bulletin. One Of the
last gaps In the Smithsonian col
lection Of nests and eggs has been
filed by the receipt from Cornell
university graduate student Of
those belongings to Harris sparrow,
found near Churchill, in the Hud-
son Bay country.
Up to short time ago, the breed
ing place Of this pretty sparrow,
which comes South to the Midwest
In its winter migrations, was COM
pletely unknown. The bird was able
to keep its breeding place secret
because of its restricted habitat
Among the birds whose summer
meeting places are still unknown,
probably the most notable is the
bristle thighed curlew, which win
ters In the southern Pacific from
Hawaii to New Caledonia. 1t is
known that it breeds in the North,
probably in western Alaska, but no.
body ever has been able to find one
of its nests.
