HOW sharks Are Trained

In Torres sound, south of Papua,
the natives trap sharks. The trap
consists of pile of empty, air-tight
coconut shells joined together with a
rope and attached to a canoe by q
lengthy line. The native takes the
shells in his canoe to the fishing
ground and places them in the wa
ter after batting them with a, dead
fish on a fire-hardened wooden hook.
When the shark grabs the bait it
attempts to dive, but the buoy-like
action of the empty shells prevents
it from doing so. The fish then
dashes madly about, dragging trap
and canoe along, until it becomes ex-
hausted. Then, if the line is still
holding, it is hauled in, speared
and taken ashore.

The unwritten sea law that no one
shall cross the Equator without be-
ing ducked is of ancient origin.
Capt. Cook, H. M. Bark Endeavour,
wrote in the log of his boyage of
October, 1853: Ceremony on this
occasion practiced by all nations
not omitted. Every one that could
not prove upon the sea chart that
he had crossed the line before was
either to pay bottle of rum or be
ducked in the sea. The former case
was the fate by far the greatest part
on board. Several men chose to be
ducked, and the weather was IA
vorable for that purpose. That cere-
mony was performed on about 20
to 30, to the no small diversion of
the rest"

lated by educators. It seems incon-
cievable that in a country as ad-
vanced as America that there are
SO murders a day and one murder
being committed every forty min
utes.
MANY believe that we cannot stop
the increase in crime until we re-
create faith in religion. Some say
that religion should not be taught in
our schools, but the institution of
religion can do many things without
violating the American principle of
separation of church and State.
at is possible for the schools to
cooperate with the church i'm an
effort to stimulate the religious life
and experience of the child. It is
UP to the school authorities to CO.
operate with the various religious
groups, Catholic, Protestant and Jew
ish, in an effort to prevent crime
among youth"
Mrs. Whitehurst explains that a
Temperance program must neces-
sarily be a part of any crime pre-
vention and character building pro-
gram, as a great many of the crimes
among young people are committed
while under the influence of alcohol.
She shows that character educa-
ton and crime prevention program
in the schools cannot prevent crime
without cooperation in the home and
community and adds that the parole
system in the community should be
analysed and if not functioning
properly should be made to do so and
this can be accomplished by creating
public sentiment for the right system.

Mrs. Whitehurst is serving on the
Advisory Committee of the Worlds
Fair, which will be held in New York
in 1889 and has recently been ap-
pointed on the policy committee for
the fair by Mrs. Vincent Aston.
In the past year, Mrs. Whitehurst
has spoken before hundreds of or
CARNATIONS, including clubs, civic or
CARNATIONS, universities and colleges
in 30 states and has engagements
during the coming season in more
than hundred cities in all parts of
the country.
In her addresses, Mrs. Whitehurst
points out the grave danger con-
fronting the United States from
Communism, Fascism, and Naziism
and urges clubwomen to combat these
'isms' in an effort to preserve democ-
racy.
She has just initiated a program
for clubwomen advocating compul-
sorry studies in characted building
and crime prevention in the Nations
schools. Mrs. Whitehurst said:
I'VE feel that crime prevention
studies have not been considered of
primary importance in the majority
OF schools. The indirect method of
teaching character education in our
schools has not stopped the increase
OF crime; therefore let US try a
direct method. Twenty per cent of
the crime in the nited States is
committed by minors, making total
OF 100000 young people in the crime
army.

Passenger Pigeons Numeroua

Passenger pigeons roamed all
America when white men first came
here, says the Washington Post. The
Indians killed the birds, but only
full-grown ones. So fat were the
pigeons the Indians melted them
down, used them as lard and butter.
The birds flew in huge focks of as
many as billion. Their roosts in
Kentucky and Indiana were often
40 miles wide and 3 miles long.
They sometimes made 100 nests in
a tree.

Paisley shawls were made of the
finest woods, sometimes combined
with silk or cotton. At the height
of the mode in about 1860 there were
5000 looms spinning away in Pals

was occupied in shawl making and
the people thrived.

Where Cork Grows

Cork is not made. It is the bark
of species of oak tree which grows
in Spain, Portugal, France, Italy,
Tunis, Algeria and Morocco. The
bark is cut in strips suitable for
packing and shipping and new bark
grows about every eight or nine
years, improving in quality with
each cutting. The trees last $50
years or more under this treatment.

The word "carioca" comes from

Rio de Janeiro in 1855. Nowadays
