FIRECRACKER KILLS
EIGHT PARTRIDGES

H. c. Anderson local jeweler, had
more luck hunting Monday with fire
crackers than most huntsmen have in
securing the woods all day with shot
guns.
Anderson, while hunting, thought he
saw a covey of quail in the straw, but
did not know for certain just where
they were, so he tossed in a large
firecracker, expecting the explosion
to scare the birds into the air. The
cracker went off with bang, but only
few birds flew up. Mr.. Anderson
investigated, and found eight birds
had been killed by the explosion of
the firecracker, which must have fell

Answer: An orthochromatic film
is sensitive to green but not to red.
Therefore, a suitable red safelight
should be used and not green one. A
very subdued green safelight is some
times used with panchromatic film,
as it is possible to see with a lesser
amount of green light than other colors.

IT HAS always been my contention
that it was not necessary to 60 far
afield in search of beautiful photo
graphs; that commonplace objects
could be presented. either by the elm
nation of surroundings, by groupings,
or by lighting, so that lovely photo
graphic compositions could be achieved.
The most striking instance of this.
in my experience. is the picture pre-
sented herewith - the head of a
wooden horse on a merry gO-rOund.
had taken my little boy out to park
near our home. Boylike. he teased me
for permission to ride the flying horses.
This was arranged. AS stood at one
side and watched him was suddenly
struck by the effect created as the
heads of the horses passed one certain
point where a slanting shaft of sum
light struck through one of the glass
panels of the enclosure within which
the merry -go-round was set up.
During the ticket-selling interval
between rides. the manager very oblig-
ingly moved his canousel around
until the head of one particular horse
came into that shaft of sunlight.
The time was late of an October
afternoon. Therefore a comparatively
long exposure was needed: one-tenth
of second at aperture As. The re-
suit more than justified my hopes.
Out of half a dozen pictures taken
from various angles. l selected this
one because the sweeping curve of the
arched wooden neck set within the
angle formed by the strut and the
crossbars of the braces formed a salts
flying composition. while the tumbled

activity of women in crime are due for
a steady increase - and the army Of
crime should suffer a devastating
blow.
The fact that a woman hides behind
her own skirts when caught. that she
seeks to use weapons of femininity in
an effort to escape the effects of her
wrongdoing, should make her all the
more an object of scorn, for, by so
doing, she is playing the traitor to her
own kind No woman should be freed
from the consequences of an act
simply because she is woman. There
may have been time when woman
was forced to do mans bidding -
but that time has gone.
Woman has assumed her own posi-
ton of responsibility in the arts, in
business and in the professions. In
these she asks no quarter of men and
gives none. She fights her own battles
and takes the consequences. The same
must be true of her position in crime.
When that time arrives, when cases
which now are dismissed possess the
hope of conviction by common-sense
juries, when the old alibi of 'he made
me do it" is stripped of its fakery and
revealed as a mere subterfuge by
which some dangerous woman remains
free to minister to the wants of her

Washington, Oct. 1 - Possibility that the Supreme Court might act in one way or another to keep Jus <. tice Hugo l.. Black from its bench, although not considered a very strong one, calls attention to the courts recent record on cases in- vOlving civil and religious minority liberties such as were threatened by the Ku Klux Klan.
 One idea is that the court . might consent to hear Q suit COntesting Blacks right to sit
 on the ground that he was in . Senate which voted new emO-
 1unlents for Supreme Court x justices.
 Another rurnor is that hte other Justics might decide that Black was ineligible in case he were found to have taken the Klan oath, as- summg that oath were found to 7 pledge taker to continued intoler. snce toward Jews, Catholics, Negroes and alineS., ..

USED CAR LOTS JAMA1ED FULL AS
, NEW AUTO SALES HIT RE CORD HIGH
BULL MARKET
HERALDED FOR
CHEW. TRUCKS

OAKLAND, Calf, Feb. 20. =
Heralding a "bull' market on
Chevrolet trucks for commercial and
farm use, over 4.000-a new record
high-were released for the Oak
land zone for March. This is the
largest number for the zone in
Chevrolet history, company officials
declared today.
Fleets of brand new machines are
on display in hundreds of agencies
throughout the state. Sales were
reported to host of agricultural,
mining, industrial, logging and
business interests.
All models show effects of the
new designs. A six-cylinder valve
in-head, high compression engine of
increased horsepower is placed far
ther forward in the chassis to make
room for longer bodies on the COM
mercial cars, and improved load dis
tribution on the 1la ton models.
The new engine develops 78 horse
power at 5000 rpm, an increase
of horse power over the previous
model. Torque is increased from
155 foot pounds to ITO.
On both the commercial car and
the 11a ton truck models, the cab
and the panel bodies are of all
steel construction, including seam
less, one-piece tops.
The load platform is constructed
OF wood, which is quieter and more
durable than steel for this use.
Cabs and bodies are more stream
lined, an effect intensified by the
new sheet metal design which has
been improved in appearance by
the adoption of some OF the distinc-
tive features in the Chevrolet 1887
passenger cars but with exclusive
truck construction.
The wheelbase of commercial car
models remains at III inches, but
the forward position Of the engine
permits the addition of close to IL
inches to the load floor length of
panel and express bodies.
The ~ ton models are in two
wheelbaseS, 1919 inches and 157
inches.
Springing, also, has been changed
on all models. The new front springs
have the berlin-type rear eyes,
which are wrapped by the second
leaves. Front spring slope has been
eliminated to effect improved steer
ing geometry.
In the commercial car models the
rear axles are virtually unchanged
except for the increase in length in
the housing and drive shafts, to
give the wider rear tread The rear
axle of the 1la ton model has a new
housing of the one-piece, seamless
steel type, which replaces the for
mer malleable iron housing with
seamless steel tubes. The new rear
axle has improved differential case
mounting, stronger axle shafts, and
new rear wheel hubs.
Fuel supply is from an 18-gallon
tank equipped with a special vent
which exhausts fumes outside the
cab or body.
