UNCLE RAYS CORNER

A visitor to Belgium may find
here and there an old custom still
being carried out One old Belgian
custom is to take milk from door to
door in a small milk cart" pulled
by large dog.
OF course, the Belgians have more
modern methods of making milk
deliveries in these days, but the dog
cart Is still to be seen in some towns.
In Grammont, a Belgian town
with $4,000 people, odd things take
place on the second Sunday in Lent.
Men, women and children march to
the top of a hill and the Mayor gets
ready to swallow a live minnow.
Wine is placed in a cup 400 years
old and the tiny fish is dropped
In the wine. The Mayor swallows
the wine and minnow at the same
time. Then each of the aldermen
Of Grammont has the same sort
Of treat"
That may make you think Of the
gold ldfish-swallowing craze which
spread over the United States q
year or so ago. Perhaps q traveller
brought back the "idea," such as it
was, from Belgium. The goldfish
craze seems to have been ended by
news from doctors that live gold

Three thousand of the cakes are
tossed into the air and both adults
and children try to catch them. They
speak of this part of the event as
"the throwing Of the cakes"
In a village in Western Belgium,
a procession takes place on the
fourth Sunday of August. In the
procession are giant figures of CO.
Hath and his bride.
These giants" are followed by q
shepherd boy named David. After
a time, David used a sling to strike
down Goliath. AL of this is In
memory of the Bible passage, which
tells how David slew Goliath.

Tiger Caught With Lime

Catching a tiger with bird lime
was accomplished recently by q bird
catcher Of Bharatfur, India. The
man covered forest path with tree
leaves heavily coated with the lime.
The leaves stuck to the tigers paws,
and the beast tried to get them off
with its head, legs. body and tongue.
Soon the tiger was covered and 1t
rolled about half blind and mad
with rage. The bird catcher put an
end to its agony with a couple Of
arrows.

to say bicycle (by-sick-eD and tri-
cycle (try-sick-eD, why is 'sick-er

This is a point well taken. The
