Farm Creatures Are Gayly Dressed
For Parade Marking Harvest Feast
'rieSf Praises Horses and
I CowS for Loyalty
to Masters.
BY WILLIS p. KNIGHT.

ONE of the most interesting OF
autumn festivals is found in the
country districts Of Mexico. 1t is
called the Blessing of the Animals"
In a way it takes the place of
Thanksgiving in the United States,
for its object is to show appreciation
for the services given man by the
horses, cattle, hens, ducks and all
other domestic creatures. 1t is claimed
that this is the oldest thanks festival
in the world, and it was observed by
the Indians centuries before white
men found American.
When the harveSts have been gath
cred, the people prepare their animals
for this momentous occasion. No
creature is left out. Each one is deco
rated and taken to the village on the
day of the celebration. When the
folks have all reached stated meet
ing place, grand procession forms.
1t is a strange cavalcade that goes
through the streets. Horses wear
trousers, light blankets to initiate
coats, and collars of large and bril-
liant cloth around their necks. Cows
wear dresses and hats or bonnetS.
Hens and ducks wear little jackets
and pantalets, with tiny bonnets that
are tied under their chins. Dogs, cats,
pigs, goats and all the others are just
as well logged out for the occasion.
After the route of march has been
covered, the padre Sprinkles the ami
mails, blesSes them, and thanks them
for their good services of the past
season. Then he asks them to be just
as faithful during the coming year.
After this has been done, the ami
. mails and birds are given a great
feast of their favorite dishes, and they
become literally stuffed with food
The owners, villagers and officials of
the town join in dig dinner for
themselves, and during this feast they
boast of the remarkable doings of
their domestic friends. One tells of
the amount of milk his COW gave
during the year, while another wakes
enthusiastic over the number of eggs
his champion hen laid. And so it
goes until the sun sets and the animals
have to be taken home.

Match Trick Is
4 Sure BaMer
BY THOMAS THE MAGICIAN.

BY THOMAS THE MAGICIAN.
THIS trick, although simple, is very
battling to the onlooker. In fact,
when this effect was shown to me 7
was completely stumped.
EFFECT: The magician, taking out
large handkerchief and placing it
on table, borrows a match. Allowing
the owner to put some mark Of
Identification upon it, the performer
places it in the center of the cloth, and
gathering it up by the four corners,
which, of course, leaves the match
inside, he asks some member of the
audience to break the match into two
distinct pieces. Next, some other MEM
Der is requested to break it up still
more.
When all are convinced that the
match is really broken, the magician
calls upon his mystic power" to re-
store the crumbled match, and, his
magic evidently being in good working
order, out rolls the originally marked
match-good as newilll
EXPLANATION: The handkerchief
is not quite as innocent as it appears
to be. 1t has the usual hem all
around and this hem is open at one
corner. Into this match is pushed,
unknown to the audience. When the
marked match is dropped on the
handkerchief the four corners are ap-
parently gathered up, but in reality
only the three nearest the audience
are taken. The fourth corner, with
the match in the hem, is pushed into
the pocket formed by the other three
sides. A trial with handkerchief will
make this very clear and will show you
that the marked match is now lying
in the fold. When the match Il
grasped from the outside, take care it
is the duplicate in the hem that In
recklessly broken up.
The annihilation completed, the
magician calmly rolls out the other
match.

PrOverb Got Start
In Church History
THE expression, When in Rome, do

THE expression, When in Rome. do
as the Romans do" dates from
the church history of ancient times.
The religious practices of Christian
Rome differed from those of other
Italian cities. Thus the Christians
of Rome and some of the Western
churches observed the Sabbath as a
fast day, while at Milan the day was
observed as a festival
These different customs troubled
many people, and the story is told of
st. Austin who once asked the advice
of st. Ambrose on the subject. st.
Ambrose offered the following solu-
ton of the problem:
When I am at Rome. I fast as the
Romans do. When I am at Milan,
do not fast. So likewise you, what
ever church you come to, observe the
custom of the place, if you would
neither give offense to others, nor
take offenSe from them"

Play Kabberdee to
Build Lung POwer
THE boys of India have a game

THE boys of India have a game
called "Kabberdee," which they
play to develop their lung power and
speed of foot. Americans will find it
just as exciting as the dark-skinned
boys of far-away India do.
To play "Kabberdee.7 there must
be at least five on side, but the game
may be played by any number over
10. Equal sides are chosen, with O
captain at the head of each. The
field is the size of the ordinary indoor
gymnasium, or, if played outdoors, the
size of a tennis court.
A line is drawn through the middle
Of the floor and the teams line up on
the sidelines with their backs to each
other. The captain of one side sends
man to the opposing side. When he
reaches the middle line he takes a
deep breath and repeats the Indian
word "Kabberdee." His object is to
tag one of his opponents and return
to the middle line. While he is trying
he must hold his breath and keep
repeating "Kabberdee" If he sue.
ceeds, the man he has tagged has
been killed and must sit on the floor.
The killed" man always sits with his
legs crossed under him.
Sometimes the final player on a side
is allowed what is called "Chuppa.
Kabberdee." Instead of holding his
breath, he must do his work without
making a noise Of any kind. Then If
the opposing players catch him they
can tickle him. or in any other way
try to force him to make a sound. If
he is forced to cry out in any way
before he gets back to the line, he is
dead, the killing being determined
the same way as previously.
When one of the players has done
something to merit applause, the
others should cry "Shabash! Sha.
bash!" meaning brave, or well done.
The main trick Of the game is to be
on the alert and be sure you have
enough breath when you cross the line
to the opposing side. The team which
succeeds in entirely breaking up the
other team wins the game.

Mysterious Knot
Is Fine Trick for
Junior Masicians
THE mysterious knot is an unbe-

HE mysterious knot is an unbe-
hevably simple trick, but you will
flnd that it may cause some worry
among your friends when they see it.
Effect: The performer takes out a
piece of string or a handkerchief.
tString is bestD He holds it between
his thumb and forefnger, by both
ends. Then, without saying anything.
he stands calmly and snaps one end
down four or five times. Each time
the magician examines the end very
carefully and registers surprise and
disappointment. Soon one of the on
lockers is sure to ask what the per-
former is trying to do, and he is told
that a string, if snapped in such a
dexterous manner. will tie a knot in its
own end. AS the magician finishes
saying this-snap!-and there is a
knot in the end of the string.
Explanation: I almost blush as de-
scribe this onei The knot was there
all the time. You see, it was always
the other end that was released until
the last attempt. That time you
change ends, unknown to the audience,
and the knot which you had previously
tied, and carefully kept out of sight in
the other hand, comes into action.

Scientists PussIed
To Find Cause of
"N0rthern Lights"

on WINTER nights we often see in
the northern sky shifting fingers
and moving shafts of light, greenish,
blush and white, called ncrthern
lights.
They are so named because for us,
who live north of the equator, they
always appear in the northern sky;
but below the equator. they appear in
the southern sky. One finds them in
the direction of the nearest pole.
Scientists are not agreed about what
causes them, but they do know that
they can make a similar glow with
electricity and certain tubes. From
the tests they have made, they have
come to believe that northern lights
(oy Aurora Borealis, as they are some-
times called are electric And they
say that we see them when the elec-
tricity which the earth attracts at its
poles from the sun spots electrical
storms on the SUM heats the thin air
to glowing as it passes on its way to
the earth.
Electrical storms on the sun are
more numerous every IL years than
at other times. and by making care
full comparisons, men have found that
the northern lights are brighter and
more frequent every II years.
That's why there were such lovely
northern lights in 1927. which was a
sun-spot year. In 1888 they should
again be more brilliant than during
the past few years.
But even though they aren't quite
so bright, we see them every Autumn,
and people who don't know better tell
silly stories about how they come from
icebergs.
