Pigeon Expert Is Prepared to Deliver
Thousands of Birds to Army for War Use

If war were declared tomorrow,
an obscure gentleman named Rob-
ert Milne suddenly would become
one of the busiest men in the coun-
try, relates Kermit Kahn in Coronet
magazine.
Instantly, he would communicate
with some 200 pigeon fanciers in the
eastern part of the United States.
The next morning, his office would
be swamped with several hundred
slightly startled pigeons. From
these Mr.. Milne would select the
fastest and most reliable.
Then he would step outside his
office, at Fort Monmouth, N. j., and
start breeding the 500 pigeons locat-
ed in nearby government pigeon
lofts. In a short while, American
military commanders would have
at their disposal 5000 homing pig
cons, fully trained to communicate
information across enemy lines. In

girl.
"And spent all your money" add
ed Mrs. Van Stratten
"And what have you got to show
for it?" argued Mr.. Van Stratten
severely.
"a lot of clothes of the kind I've
been dying for"
"And your name in the New York
papers. l should think you might
at least try to keep out of print
after that disgraceful college cpl
sode last year"
"Cheap, and vulgar exhibition
lsm," mumbled the husband. The
Van Strattens cherished a profound
aversion to all publicity.
ut wasn't my fault"
"And now you wish to adopt the
most vulgar and public of all pro-
fessions, the STAGE" said her aunt.
'"Only as a costume designer. I've
got to do something to support my
self"
I'VE are not exactly pauperS,"
stated her uncle stiff1y.
"No-o-o. But know you're hard
up, Uncle Rob. 1t isn't fair for me
to be living on you"
''Since we are your legal guardi-
ans, it is perfectly proper that you
should be living with us. We ask
only that you behave with reason
able discretion and abstain from in
volving our name in distasteful pub
licity, such as last weeks. One
hardly supposes that you were
forced to have your picture in the
group of typical deb beauties, en-
dorsing new kind of digestive tab
let. Typical deb beauties!' Mrs.
Van Stratten repeated the injurious
newspaper phrase with a snort.
"And in New York paper" AS
if that magnified the offense.
ooh, we'll, my dear; it's natural
enough that the papers should like
to get her PICTURE" granted Mr..
Van Stratten. "The child isn't bad
looking, after all"

belief that they can write fiction.
Contemplating the manuscript OF
"Love Beyond Sin," the new Tenn
pleton Sayles decided that he might
as well carry out the bluff he had
made to the real author and have a
crack at it.
The first reminder of his altered
personality came on the morning
following his friends departure, in
the form of night-letter addressed
"Templeton Sayles, Esq, Moldavia,
N. Y" Hoping to hear from Holmes
in New York and get some address
to which he could forward the mes
sage, he stuck it upon the mantel,
unopened. When no such informa-
ton arrived, he forgot all about it.
An envelope similarly addressed,
which arrived on the second morn
ing, he did open, since it was in
Martin Holmes own handwriting.
Within was the newspaper photo
graph of the girl whom they had
discussed, with typed inscription
across it:
miss Adelina Ashcan, K. NJ,
the Park Avenue debutter. For
inspiration in your monumental
work. | don't need her any longer.
M. H.
"P. S. In case of visitors, of
which you are likely to have some,
don't let them scare you out of
your character"
The new-fledged Templeton Sayles
dropped the pictured girl into the
waste basket. Thence, on his clean
ing rounds, Chunk rescued her, and
set her on the mantel. His new boss
caught him at it.
do you like that picture,
Glunk?"
"Urgck"
"Why?"
'Nice GAL"
"My information points in quite
another direction. However, leave
her. She can stay there as long
as she doesn't interfere with my
work."
Coulee City dispatch. [volume] (Coulee City, Wash.) 19??-19??, 1939-01-26

Good lad. Mr.. Hare-I mean Mr..
Templeton Sayles, here is your boss
till I come back. Get it?"
"Urgck."
Correct. Pack my things"
"Just a second" expostulated the
tenant. "How am I going to know
what he means?"
'That's easy. Whatever he says
always means yes until he says
something else. You'll be couple
of pals in no time. Pm off by the
late train. Heaven send you luck
with Flossie the Flop. And don't
do anything that Templeton Sayles
would be ashamed of"
Thus began Kelsey Hare's new
life as an author. All adult per-
sons with enough education to read
and write cherish the ineradicable

Sun Down, Accidents Up

When the sun goes down, traffic
accidents go up. More than so
per cent of all fatal traffic acct
dents occur at night, the National
Safety Council reports. Since
about third of the driving is done
at night, it estimates, the number
of traffic deaths per mile is about
three times as great at night as
during the daytime.
In the past seven years, night
accidents have increased go per
cent in rural districts, the report
says, and only II per cent in cities.
Adequate lighting and divided
highways tend to reduce headlight
glare and accidents, the council
said. Some states are experiment.

Mr.. Milne, who is pigeon expert

1t is a pigeons nature to rest at
nightfall, and take wing only during
the day. If pigeon could be trained

tend, military communications will

pigeons among the safest methods
of wartime communication.

Responsive to this summons, a

appeared. Martin Holmes combi-

A CHANCE TO HELP
By LUCIA MALLORY

Hilda Brennan was sitting on her
front porch when I was walking by
one evening.
Won't you come up, Lucia?" she
called Hospitality. Its been a long

AS I accepted the invitation and sat
down beside my friend, I noticed that
her right hand was awkwardly swathed
in gauze bandage.

hurt it badly
ooh. no." Hilda replied, lowering her
voice as she turned to look into the
house. 1.-The fact is, I burned it Just
a little when I was starting to wash

SO solicitous and wanted so much to
help me that I let her wrap up my
hand and finish the dishes all by her

self. They won't be very thoroughly
done, but can look them over when
I use them"
Just then six-year-old Jane came
out Of the house smiling with the sat-
isfaction of achievement: II washed all
clared, land put them away, too. Julia
and Beth want me to come out In
the yard to play with them now.
You'll call me if your hand hurts or
you want anything, won't your"
Yes, DEAR, Hilda answered, smiling
comfortable. and I'm having a nice
visit with Miss Mallory. 1t will be time
for you to go to bed in half an hour"
All right, Mother, I'll come in when
you call me-" Jane skipped away to
join her playmates.
How wise you are, Hilda. to let
Jane feel that you need her help"
II wasn't always as wise as that,
Lucia" the little girls mother con-
fessed. Il used to send Jane out to
play when she wanted to help me. It
seemed too much bother to teach her
bungling little fingers how to do the
things that could do so easily and
noticed that my daughter wasn't con-
tented to stay at home. She kept ask
ing to go over to a neighbours house to
playa house that was not nearly so
sunny and attractive and well-kept as
mine. There were no children there,
SO it puzzled me.
"One day I went over there and
found Jane standing on a kitchen
chair rolling out bit of cooky dough
with huge rolling pin. A good deal
was on her face and hands and the
part that was left on the board looked
sticky and not very clean, but Jane
was having delightful time.
See my cookies, Mama!' she ex-
claimed. Mrs. Storrs says may take
you some when they are done
II let her stay to finish her baking,
but decided then and there that my
daughter should not have to go away
from home to have good times like
that. Now she always helps me with
my baking, and she is careful to see
that her hands are spotlessly clean
when we begin.
Jane does things surprisingly well,
too" her mother went on proudly. "A
6-year-old is not ready for any pro-
longed effort, of course, but helping
mother is privilege that no little girl
should ever be denied. I am ashamed
that I ever thought it too much
trouble"
