kind in captivity, got its first peek at
New York today from a private pen
In the Bronx Zoo
The distinguished animal visitor
arrived last night in the company Of
Zoo Director W. Reid Blair after a
irving voyage.
The okapi-you couldn't have met
one this side Of nightmare-looks like
something from Alice in Wonderland.
1t has purplish brown body splashed
with purple-black stripes. Honest.
Natives call it "the painted horse of
the jungle" And even scientists, those
agile classifiers, can tell you only that
1t looks like cross between a zebra
and giraffe. Only the neck is shorter
than a giraffe's and the body is mar
rover than a zebras
The Bronx Zoos okapi. a 2-year-old
youngster, will weigh 400 pounds and
stand about 5 feet high when he
reaches maturity three years from
now. That is if he likes the city Of

away. The breed is delicate.

In addition to the state contest

been organized under the capable
leadership of Miss A. L. Griffin
The entire student body is indeed
pleased with the fine entertain
ment given in chapel by this
group Of young talented musicl-
ans.
Although the weather has al
most entirely prohibited basket
ball practice, the Durant Tigers
had their first game last Friday
night when they were defeated
by Sails The girls hope to have
their first game this week.
A time diary has been given to
every member of the student
body of Durant High School. This

BIRTHDAY BALL
FUND rs NEEDED
DR.. Felix j. Underwood Stresses
Aid In Paralysis Fight

Stressing the advantages deriv-
ed from the fund raised annually
by the Presidents Birthday Ball,
DIR. Felix j. Underwood, director
of the state board of health, yes
|terday pointed out to Mayor w.
E. Howell member of the Presid-
ent's Birthday Ball committee,
the need for a continu-
ed fight against paralysis.
DR.. Underwood said:
"The occasion of the Presid-
ent's Birthday Ball is to raise
! funds to aid in the struggle a.
gainst infantile paralysis. Seven
ty per cent of the proceeds will
benefit underpriviliged children
! in local communities. 1t is known
| that proper management and care
| of paralysis cases together with
measures dealing with education
and rehabilitation of those affect
ed, assumes major Importance.
Gin olden days they killed
their cripples. Civilization has adj
vanced far beyond this. Today
we sympathize with the victim OF
poliomyelitis and display that
peculiar nature which distingui-
shes man from other beinr-Hu-
manity.
"In infancy, Sir Walter Scott
the writer of historical romances.
was attacked by poliomyelitis.
As far back as 1880 B. G. it is
known that poliomyelitis existed.
"To humanity and to the
mothers of these children with
twisted limbs and shrunken bod
les, I'VE owe a debt. Public spirit
ed citizens will join hands in the
rehabilitation of the crippled
children. Adequate care and sur
gical treatment must be provided.
"Funds from the President s
Birthday Ball make it possible to
continue the battle against this
disabling disease. The seventy
lper cent of the proceeds remain
ing in the community may be
matched for service to crippled
lchildren, which would mean that
we would have twice the amount
realized from the ball. Thirty per
cent of the money secured will be
sent to the Georgia Warm Springs
Foundation.
"The good that has been ac-
complished is without measure.
The good that may be accomplish
ed in the future depends upon the
attendance at the Presidents
Ball.

All. yesl husband, II has been .
long time coming, but the mother
in me is born again and I'm to
be really grandmother at lastl"
The soft flush on Elizabeth's cheek
deepened, her eyes grew bright, her
smoothly drawn hair seemed to
share in her general elation and,
working forward from the tight coil,
curved softly about her forehead.
Soon she made haste to clear the
table. chatting the while about the
days plans with Hepsy.
"Emery's little bed has feathers
in it. folks don't allow children to
sleep on feathers these days." said
Hepsy drily. "Up-to-date children
now is mostly froze clear through
to their spines to Judge by a book
the minister's wife's sister had at
the picnic last summer"
"Hepsy. I know that there is con-
siderable foundation for what you
say - most things have changed,
but being a grandmother I don't
have to follow, as far as acting
out the new way does. Feather
beds r not best for summer I
agree. but feather-beds make fine
winter nests for young birds and
this is winter and cold one at that.
