The gray squirrel wears a pepper
and-salt suit, the underfur being
dull lead color. The overhairs are
lead color at the base, then buf1
for the next length; grading to
black, finally to a tip of white. This
results in the charming suit of uni
form black and white. If you will OBJ
serve closely, you will find that
on the head, back, paws and saddle
down the back, there is distinctive
shade of rusty yellow to be seen.
The muzzle, cheeks, ears and upper
parts of the paws are often tan or
reddish, and the chin, throat and
underside of the legs, almost pure
white. The long tail hairs usually
match the colors of the body and
the tip is always white.
A black squirrel is sometimes seen
in company with gray ones. This
is the wonderful color variation of
this squirrel. To see glossy black
squirrel, as we often do in Wash
ington, D. c., is to know that it is a
gray squirrel at heart, dressed in
morning. In Minnesota there are
many little ebony babies born in the
gray squirrel nursery and in Canada
many more. On rare occasions you
will also find an albino baby. Its
white coat makes it very conspicu-

Mr.. Bride: That is not my defini-

Mr.. Patman: 'Is not that . good
definition?"
Mr.. Bride: IT do not think So"
Mr.. Patman: "Your definition Is:
AS long as one can remain per-
pendicular?"
Mr.. Bride: II say that is the
definition, as the gentleman under
stands It,"
Mr.. Patman: "You do not agree
with my definition that saloon is
a place where one can purchase an
unlimited quantity of liquor?"
Mr.. Bride: mo, sir, think there
is very definite limitation-not the
number of glasses which may be
purchased and drunk. but the fact
that the man owning the restaurant
will want to keep license for his
saloon, restaurant, or whatever you
want to call it."

the return of the saloon. He told
Mr.. Patman also that even the
licensing system proposed by the
Commissioners would permit the re-
turn of the saloon, according to his
definition of the word. The discus
sion continued, as follows:
Representative Patman: II want
to call your attention to the fact
that it has been rather definitely
stated here that under the old sys-
tenn of saloons person would go up
to the counter and purchase a drink
and consume it while standing up
But in this modern system of saloons
they have to sit down in order to
consume the same liquid, and thai

little gamins. They know those
who make a practice OF bringing
them nuts and even wait for them. 1t
Is not unusual for the more pampered
ones to ride your shoulder or peek
into your pockets for tidbits. And
these citified fellows eat other foods
besides nuts-imagine-hard candy! T.!
However, what a JOY these little
fellows are to those who long to
get out into the country and cannot.
The squirrel brings them the free
dom of the woods and fields.
Among themselves there seems
to be harmonious feeling. True

surplus steam. Mother squirrel has

of the gray squirrels in my large

they are sociable and kindly toward
each other.

all the members of their colony
were kept in touch with the fact that
their arch foe was prowling below

answer the note of alarm.
The gray squirrel remains indoors
during the coldest weather anc
when rainy days arrive. But they
do not hibernate, and while they
lay up for winter, they forage dur

of the hunt.
Few realize how vital to the
squirrel is his great bushy tail. II

The current effort to bring back
the stand-up bar in Washington
makes it timely to recall the factors
that prompted Congress to prescribe
the sit-down rule for drinkers when
it drafted the Districts liquor con-
troll law seven years ago.
Joint hearings conducted by the
House and Senate District Commit
tees in January, 1884, indicate clearly
that President Roosevelt's plea to
the Nation not to restore the old
time saloon was one of the primary
reasons for the requirement that
patrons of drinking establishments
be seated.
With prohibition on the way out,
the lawmakers were trying to avoid
in the new licensing system recog-
nized evils of the pre-dry era. Ac-
cordingly, they sought to make the
sale of liquor by the drink an adjunct
of the restaurant rather than the
sole business of the licensee.
But the hearings disclose that the
sit-down regulation was not de-
siqned for the sake of appearance
alone. At least two witnesses also
contended in the 1884 hearings that
liquor is likely to be consumed more
rapidly at the bar than at tables.
One was the late William w. Bride,
then corporation counsel, who took
a leading part in drafting the Dis
trict law. He told the Senators and
Representatives:
There is a great deal in the type
of place, meaning by that, in the
old days when you could put your
foot on the rail and take drink
over the bar, it was process that
could be done very quickly and easily
Under this proposal you are required
to 60 in and sit down at the table
The waiter must come over and get
your order and bring it in to you
He gives you check. You have got
| to wait for the payment of the check
and leave the place. That is going
to operate very materially against
easy and excess drinking, we believe
The other witness was DR.. F. w
Buck, who appeared in 1884 for the
Federal Dispensary-Tax Reduction
League, Inc. Although he was an
advocate of the dispensary system OF
liquor control, he thought the Com
missioners' sit-down regulation had
advantages over the old-type stand
up bar under a private license
system.

Patman of Texas, DR.. Buck had ex-
planned his organization was against

Scrap Metal Shortage
Sad Commentary on
U. S. Craftsmanship
BY b. C. FORBES

George NJ. Verify. veteran
founder and still active head of
American Rolling Mill Com
pany, employing $4,000 workers,
tells me that several times lately
mills have had to be shut down
through lack of scrap steel. AS
one of Americas most humani-
tartan employers. he grievously
deplores inability to provide
everyone with steady work.
Why is scrap steel so scarce ?
Mainly because Washington was
blind to what was brewing
abroad. and consequently al
lowed Japan TO drain the United
States of this most essential de-
Tense material. 1t is estimated
that if only normal amounts had
been exported, there would have
been enough here TO meet all
requirements.
Now we are threatened with
militant action by Japan.
Through foresight, she imported
an endless procession of ship
loads of scrap iron and steel
from us. thus strengthening her.
self and weakening us.
