abbreviated. His head and shoulders
are a lovely yellowish brown, the
remainder of his cpat is grayish-
black, and his under colors are
smoky-gray. The rounded ears are
margined in white, and his half
hose are also of this pure color.
There are, we find, some IL dis
tinct American species and these
represent the entire genus of this
family.
Modesty of speech is not among
their virtues, nor is it their idea to
keep the world unacquainted with
their family affairs. AS matter
of fact, they lead you right up to
their domicile by their incessant
gossipy notes. They are expert
ventriloquists. They squeal upon the
slightest provocation and often fool
the elect by pitching their voices in
all sorts of places.
Being vegetarians. they find their
food without any trouble. They are
thrifty and lay by stores of grass
and herbage against the day when
this food is not to be found. They
do not belong to the exclusive
Hibernators' Club.
In May the babies are born,
usually four of them. BY autumn
the youngsters are as industrious
as their parents, who really hold
the record for saving and thrift
They are up at dawn and race back
and forth to their storehouses with
their mouths filled with leaves. The
wide crevices are used for silos and
in case of unexpected leakage that
might destroy the food value of the
harvest, it is not moved.
Bright-eyed birds of prey are ever
on the lookout for these small crea-
lures, who in their desire to put
by their food are too deeply en-
crossed to notice the air-foes until
it is too late.

you will find time to watch these
sure footed beasties of the noun

the presence of their human
brothers. they have been known to
overcome this tendency and be al
most chummy.

London Buries Films

Miles of miniature moving picture
films have been placed in the narrow
steel safe deposit boxes under Lon
don. Photographic records of all
important documents have been
buried there by scores of companies.
One of the unusual deposits is the
life-Work of a German scientist who
does not want his formulas in the
hands of regime he opposes. Since
the September crises of 1888 more
than 500 miles of similar film has
been locked away in this manner.
Among the safeguarding precau-
tions are special corridors running
round the outside of the main
strong-room. Giant % entry doors,
controlled by time clocks, can be
opened only at predetermined day
light hours.

Now here is a family that is ex-
elusive. The comics are rodents, to
be sure, and they come in between
the rabbits and guinea pigs. But

Ing brown rabbits. Had they waited
to test the sprinting ability of the
small creature, they would soon have
discovered their mistake. For no
self-respecting rabbit would make
such a slow get away.
We find these creatures living in
the higher mountain districts of
northwestern North American.
Their closest cousins reside in Asia.
and in North America they are
several times removed as cousins to
the hares.
The names of Little Chief"
~Whistling Hare" and "Cony" are

Take Your Choice

You can cook this one up all by
yourself and then stew around with
it. The idea is that out of all nine
digits you make, select any one
you care to and use it to solve the
problem. OF course, If you don't
pick the right one the problem
won't work out but outside of that
it is simple. Just pick your digit
and use it. eight times in any of
the four basic arithmetic opera
tions or a combination of them and
get an answer of one thousand.
For example. if you pick three
don't, because it won't work. you
might say that 33 times 3 plus 3
plus 3 plus divided by equals
1000. 1t doesn't but at least you
have used 3 eight times. Okay,
