Weather bureaus in dozen cities
in four southern states are now
linked together by teletypewriters
in an improved hurricane warning
service. Heretofore it has often
been difficult to find the center,
intensity, and direction of hurri.
canes in the Caribbean Ocean and
Gulf OF Mexico because ships, upon
whose reports the weather bureau
must rely, naturally avoid the path
of the storm. Now these twelve
weather bureaus are organized into
a connected series Of reporting sta
ions. Their reports, together with
reports received from vessels, give
accurate indication OF where baro-
metric pressure is low, where it is
rising or falling, and other data

small child, she went infrequent-
" with her grandparents over the
rough mountain roads to the little
country town, or was perhaps al
lowed to accompany old Gary, their
servant, on a marketing expedition; !;
but as she grew older, and her
mothers beauty began TO evidence
itself in her, she was kept more
and more closely at home. There
were quite often guests at the great
house when Deborah was a child,
but they were grave elderly people
like her grandparents, SO that she
grew up completely cut off from
companions of her own age and
generation. She had, however, a
library full of books, and three peo.
pie entirely devoted to her welfare.
It must be admitted that of the
three, Grandfather, Grandmother
and Gary, it was Gary who taught
her the most interesting things.
Grandfather taught her history, and
science, and geography, and politi-
cal economy. grandmother taught
her needlework, and q number Of
things that made them both blush
and over which they skipped as
hastily as possible. But Gary
Gary told her stories Of people.
Yes, there was Gary. Grandfa-
ther and Grandmother kept the iron
gates leading to- the world locked
and barred, but Gary lifted the shut
ters Of a thousand little windows,
magic easements, all Of them, open
ing on the foam Of perilous seas.
But no matter how staunchly
Grandfather and Grandmother kept
the iron gates locked against the
world, they knew that some day
they would have to be opened, even
If only to allow themselves to pass
through, on their last. journeys. For
many years the question of DebO-
rah's future, when the iron gates
should be opened, gave, them anx-
ious hours of discussion. She would
have a fortune greater than her
fathers before her, since 1t had
grown through the years. She had
no relatives other than her grand
parents. Deborah must be COM
pletely secure. So, when she was
thirteen, eight years ago, Grand
father had gone away to San Fran
cisco on a journey, and when he re-
turned he had stopped frowning,
and they told her that her future
happiness was taken care of.
Courtney Graham, less than a
year after the marriage Of Debo-
rah's mother. had taken unto him
self a wife. For him TO do so had
been a blow, but after talking it
all over for a number of years,
Grandfather and Grandmother had
consoled themselves BY saying that
of course Anne, as far as Courtney
knew at the time of his marriage,
was happy; that If she had been
dead, Courtney would. have devot-
ed his life to mourning her loss,
would have considered himself a
widower. No; Courtney had been
perfect New England gentleman
and he had done no wrong.
He had a son, born two months
after Deborah herself. The boys
name was Stuart, and now at thir-
teen he was a tall handsome lad of
great promise. His father and
grandfather both thought that a
second attempt at an alliance be-
tween the two families might prove
a happy one. So it was understood
that II the young people were will
ing, they should marry each other
when they grew up.

Father Coughlin takes the position
that the election has made Of this coun-

President as q virtual dictator; that the
Government has become one of men and
not Of law. If that be true, then the
Republic is in danger indeed. If the

the United States. The President, how

typical cat exercise, the stretch.
Several systems Of physical culture
have been based more or less on the
stretch. 1t Is . particular favorite Of
advocates Of exercise for so-called lazy
persons, in the belief that II they will
not take any other exercise, at least
they may be prodded int stretching
bit. The belief that true cats manage
to keep their health by stretching alone
is rather open to doubt. There Is really
nothing about it which could get that
result. 1t is simply q form Of tension
exercise, and, In 50 far as that stirs
the blood, Is beneficial. As an exercise
for human beings 1t also tends to make
the subject stand straighter and get
the kinks" out Of his system. 1t has
the disadvantage, when taken standing,
Of q tendency toward the poking forward
Of the stomach"
Fortunately for the wild chipmunk,
whether in yard or park, 1t does not
have to take thought when exercising.
Its rapid, almost mouSelike darts are
the very embodiment Of grace, vigor and
that happy animal enjoyment Of move
ment which man shares with the brute
creation.
1t Is really too bad that the word
brute means stupid, irrational, because
really there Is nothing stupid about
the brutes.
These primary Latin meanings have
clung tenaciously to the word in English,
so that when we speak of the dumb
brutes We ordinarily mean something
lacking all reason, whereas the bulk of
a "a nt n~Hk -
reason Of their own, which Is often
instinct, which, in turn, Is high sort
OF racial reasoning.
The little chipmunk, although he
would bite you with needle-sharp teeth
If you managed to get your hand on
him, would be acting in q highly ra-
tional chipmunk manner in doing 50.
Most householders, even In the
suburbs, will have to content themselves
with envying the family which possesses
q yard with chipmunks in it.
The best the remainder can do Is to
call attention to many real squirrels and
some fine wild rabbits perhaps.
The aboreal propensities of the squir-
rels is their real charm, one which puts
them above-no pun intended-the chip
munk and gophers.
Squirrels and trees 60 together, like
bread and milk.
The trust squirrels have in trees Is
something sublime. Let q squirrel get
to his tree. he fancies no harm can
come to him.
Watch him run along the top rail
Of the old wood fence. He is agile, but
not altogether at his ease. He is no
ground squirrel, nor rail squirrel, either,
but true arboreal rodent, as much at
home in trees as the very leaves.
Do the little ground squirrels look
with something akin to envy upon the
Haunting habits and tails of their
cousins aloft?
They do not, but 60 their way-ac-
cording to merciful dispensation-
content with their lot, happy with what
they have. Man might be better OF II
he could emulate them instead of al
ways wishing for what he hasn't and
not being satisfied with what he has as
long as there is . more expensive model
available.

Off the Air.

Father Charles E. Coughlin, head OF
the National Union for Social Justice,
has announced his retirement from the
field of politics and from the radio. He
Is taking this course, he said, Gin the
best interests of all the people," Such
humility on the part of Father Coughlin,
IN the light of earlier performances,
may be unexpected. 1t is, however,
praiseworthy.
Certainly the overwhelming reelection
OF President Roosevelt, whom Father
Coughlin attacked violently during the
campaign, seemed to be complete
answer to the priest. AS such he ap-
parently has taken 1t. He is retiring
from the lists.
The fact that President Roosevelt
has been reelected does not necessarily
make everything that he has done, or
may do, right. During the campaign
ths record of the President and the New
Deal administration was attacked. The
Justice or injustice of these attacks has
not been settled by an election. It Is
true, however, that the election has
given the President q free hand to 60
forward with his past policies and to
return, perhaps, to those which were
declared unconstitutional by the Su-
preme Court.
Father Coughlin has retired from the
role Of critic, at least for the time being.
while every American may wish the
President well In bis new term Of ONCE.
1t does not necessarily follow that every
