just rest his chin on my knee
and look up. He wasn't asking
for anything He was merely in
dorsing our mutual friendship and
respect. AS watched Ginger, ]

And when he fought Ginger never
objected to the odds against him.
His vocabulary knew no whine.
Ginger was much more civil

Therein l failed, although by ex-
ample he taught me better how
to be a bit more of an all-around
gentleman.
ITO the very last Ginger kept
his code. In pain. he remember
ed. Torn by hemorrhage, he
sounded no complaint. We were
with him. That was all he ever
asked of life, or of death - to be
with us, whatever our fortune.

Sign Boards
BY Harry Troupe Brewer

There are lessons to learn while
travelling.
The busy roads Of life,
There are many signs to help
you
Avoid the ways of strife.
There is beauty by the roadside,
Quite plain for all to see,
If you will look for signboards
Wherever they may be.
Their arms are stretched in
warning
That none may go astray,
You need, Of course, to be alert
To keep the good highway.
Whey, once discarded as a
waste product of cheese-making
is a good source of calcium, phos-
phorus, protein and milk sugar,
and scientists today are working
on ways to use it in soups, candies,
and fruit drinks.

Lenten Thoughts

The fundamental thought of the
church season of Lent would
seem to be that people should re-
pent of their sins. The modern
world does not like the word
"sin." But nothing is more evil
dent than that the world is full
Of offenses against God and man.
People trample on the weak, they
abuse the bodies that God has
given them they are dishonest
and crooked.
Man has crown no wings as
yet. Whether or not he conforms
to the Lenten custom, It will do

Every day the sun climbs
higher. The North wind sweeps
over the land. but we are coming
to the end of his reign. Longer
days make our hours seem more
cheerful. The life of vegetation
has had its period of sleep, and
on bright and sunny days you can
hear the first STRINGS of nature,
anticipating the year of activity
to come.
People do not write songs
clarifying winter, but the good
old summer time and the joys of
spring stir the poets to action.
But old winter has redeeming fea-
lures.
1t brings innumerable pleasant
social occasions, and countless
fireside gatherings where friends
and neighbors exchange their
ideas and engage in merry sport
The true philosopher says that
whatever season he is passin
through is always the best one

UNCLE RAYS CORNER
"A Little Saturday Talk

Very soon we found it was not a
whale. Instead it was a monster
of some sort with side-wing.
I'VE pulled our boat along the
side-Wing, which was six feet above
the surface. The body was about
six feet below. The center of the
side-wing was about two and half
inches thick.
The officer wanted to use the
harpoon gun, but we had only 5000
feet of rope in the boat, and didn't
know how the fish would act. While
we were talking about the point,
the fish swan slowly under water.
II hope this will help you to solve
my mystery fish, which has been
on my mind ever since I saw it.
1t did not belong to the whale
family, and did not breathe air"
Without photograph, it is hard
to tell what an odd animal like
that might be. Even with a photo
graph, it Is not always possible.
1t seems to me, however, that
what Mr.. Torgerson saw may have
been a giant ray, or "devil-fish," i"

Every now and then. a puzzling
question comes in letter. Here Is
A letter from Ole Torgerson, which
contains such question, also
some interesting notes about what
he saw:
"I wonder if you could help me
solve a problem about a mysterious
fish that l saw years ago, but the
name of which have not been able
to- learn.
"It was July, 1894, that I was on
q homebound voyage after trip
in which we hunted bottle-nosed
whales. At IS degrees north lati-
tude and seven degrees west longi-
tude, about 200 miles from Iceland,
the lookout saw floating object
one morning about two cable lengths
to the port side.
cat first the ships officer sup
posed it to be a floating whale; a
dead bottle-nose floats with its nose
above the water after it starts to
decay.
1--WE lowered one of our rowboats,
and began pulling toward the object.

The Atlantic contains giant rays,
and they are known to be as much
as Is or 20 feet wide, and about
as long as they are wide.
Giant rays have wings of sort.
One of them found in Delaware
Bay was reported to measure II and
half feet by 18 feet.
Giant rays have gills, and are
not air-breathing. They are known
to exist in deep parts of the North
Atlantic.
