Pedestrians
BY JOHN BLAKE.

COME jokesmith has announced his
belief that in few hundred years
legs will become superfiuous. Men,
already motorized. will equip them
selves with roller skates driven by
small engines. and in time their feet
will atrophy for lack of use.
It will not come in OUR time. I
hope it will not come at all. Already
we are a little too far ahead Of our
selves.
I am glad this is still mere jest.
Whenever I hike down some shady
road and see a car rush by at 40 or
SO miles an hour I think how much
enjoyment those in it are missing.
Rivers, brooks, stretches of open land
and beautiful forests are just SO many
miles to the modern tourist.
The migratory birds are stopping to
rest on their southwark way, but who
can see them from speeding ma
chine? With his eye on the speed
ometer and his joy on discovering
that he is making go or 10 miles an
hour, what does the motorist care
about the surroundings through which
he races?
If he goes little too fast and piles
up alongside the road he will be so
busy trying to get going again that
he will have no thought for the Squir-

THIS coat of arms was borne to
America by David Kerr of Ire
land, who came to America in l708
and settled in Philadelphia with his
brothers, Robert an, John.
The history of the family Of Kerr
is traced as far back as the Nor
man conquest. when William Karrie,
one of the followers OF William the
Conoueror, came over from France
and fought in the Battle of Hastings
in 1866. His posterity evidently set
tied in the north of England and dur
ing the succeeding generations spread
into Scotland and Ireland. The name
assumed various iorms of spelling. the
Scottish and Irish preferring to spell
the name Karr, Kerr and Ker. while
the English way was Care. Carr and
Car. The first of the English family
of Carr to settle in this country we're
four brothers, William. George, Ben
jamin and James, who bore the same
arms as are shown here.
Descendants of the Irish founder,

tions of Pennsylvania and in other

Mother Duck Tries Her Best

Mrs. Quack. IF fathers would always

nothing but admire himself and have
a good time. Does he worry about the
babies? Not one bit. He leaves all
that to me-
Il guess they're all alike" said Mrs.
Wood Duck. "Mr. Wood Duck is just
the same way. He doesn't help ME one
bit. He says that looking after chill
dren is my job and not his. He'll be
proud enough of them when they grow
up, but he avoids all the worry and
trouble of bringing them up. Look, my
dear Who is that over by the house
of Paddy the Beaver? Is it one of
Paddy's children?"
Mrs. Quack looked and as she
looked fear grew in her eyes. Its
too small for one of Paddy,s babies"
she said in a low tone. 1T is Billy
Mink. Oh. I do hope he doesn't come
this Way!"
She turned toward Mrs. Wood Duck.

into hiding. Then Mrs. Quack did the

Thanks to more sturdy construction,

fleets the leaf-f1ecked sunshine, aud
around every bend there is something
new and beautiful to see?
Time was when the wooded country
and the stretches Of open land were
dotted with groups of pedestrians.
Today it is dangerous to walk along
the road, as some speedster comes
tearing along and you have to step
lively or take the consequences.

Mrs. Wood Duck sighed heavily. 1T

family. told you then that the o:g-
ger the family the more anxieties.
That is the price we mothers have to
pay. You have less reason for envy
now, for three of the babies are miss
ing. Sharpshin the Hawk got one. A
Turtle got another, for I couldn't
reach him in time. The third I have
just lost. What has become of him
don't know, but I suspect Longlegs

Mrs. Quack nodded. II suspect you
are right, my dear. and I am so very
sorry" said she. Il happened to pe
looking over where Longlegs sat and
saw him take two long steps and
then strike at something with that
great bill of his. At the time thought
it was Frog. but it may have been

Il am afraid 1t was" replied Mrs.
Wood Duck brokenly Il am afraid
it was. One pair of eyes simply can
not keep watch of so many children
at one time. I try my best, but in
spite Of all I can do some of them

The Old Gardener Saws:

Plants Of brussels sprouts,
which have not matured their
crop. may be taken up with the
roots and set III the cellar, earth
being packed around them and a
little water given occasionally.
OF course, they should have
plenty of light. If they are
treated in this way, the sprouts
will keep on growing and will
provide an acceptable delicacy for
the table over period of several
weeks. Endive may be handled
in much the same way, but will
develop blanched heads if kept
somewhat dark. If this is not
easily arranged, the leaves may
be tied over the heart with a
piece of string. Tomatoes can
not, Of course, be kept growing.
but If there are plants with partly
ripened fruit in the garden when
frosts come, they may be pulled
up and hung from the rafters in
the attic, where the partly ripened
fruit will continue to put on COL
or. It is often possible in this
manner to have tomatoes up to
Christmas.

The bidding:

Cd A very nice bid on Vests part.
East should have realized that West
has a long heart suit, and bid 90 at
least five. West should then go on to
six. Seven is pretty impossible to
reach
90 Not a good double. West for
some reason, wished to keep his part
ner quiet. He succeeded.
The crux of the matter. however,
was Easts and Vests defense OF the
five-club bid. North said, as his hand
went down, "Why didn't you open it
up with five clubs, instead Of bothering
with two and four?"
The opening lead was the three Of
diamonds. East went up with the
ace, and South false-carded with the
nine. The hoped-for shift was made
the king of spades. For some reason
West felt that he could not afford to
put the jack on the trick. and East
thought he would let his partner know
that he had the kingo hearts. That
was the last mistake. Trumps were
drawn. and the losing spades discarded
on the good diamonds. South made
five clubs, doubled.
The contract can be beaten only
two tricks at best, so the save is
good one, in the event that East and
West decide to put up defense that
is q defense.
