8. The petitioners requested a meeting which was
granted and they appeared and presented their

an election for the purpose of establishing a ninth

ing that a meeting was held and attended only by a
few of Mr.. Rollins friends and that no notice was
given of the meeting to hear a petition Of the citi-

UNCLE RAYS CORNER

Years ago I saw motion picture
OF special interest. The scene was
laid in jungles of Southeastern
Asia, and showed the struggle
which goes on among the wild ami
mails.
The thing I found most interest
ing in that picture was a fight be-
tween tiger and water buffalo.
The buffalo was tied TO a stake by
Q long rope. and was grazing when
It was attacked. Quickly it swung
its head from side to side. With its
sharp horns, it struck and killed the
tiger.
Tigers usually can win fights with
water buffaloes. They can spring
from ambush and catch the larger
beast from behind the head. If,
however, they fight from the front,
they are in great danger from the
sharp, fast-moving horns.
Water buffsloes belong to the cat
tie family. They were given their
name because they like to lie in the
water Of marshes, pools and streams
during hot hours of the day.
Many water buffaloes run wild in
India. Others have been tanned and
are used in blowing and for other
purposes on farms.
Water buffaloes are seldom more
than fve feet high at the shoulders.

inches thick at the base, ana PAIR
of them may spread out three feet.
Efforts to tame the gaur have
met little success. The big animals
like their freedom, and it is dan
gerous for men to try to keep them
as they would common cattle.
A young Englishman was riding
a motorcycle along a road in In
dia one evening when he saw what
at first seemed q dark shadow. IN
second he struck large object, .
gaur!
The Enslishman was hurled into
a ditch. When his senses came back
to him. he found that the gaur bull
was attacking his motorcycle. and
was turning it into q worse wreck.
He hid in the ditch until morning;
then, after the gaur had gone away,
he walked back to town.

West opened the seven of dia-

out East's ace. A diamond return
vas won by dummy, and South took
the next trick with the spade ace.
Thus far, South had played the
hand correctly, but his next play
upset his applicant he led a low
trump and won with dummy's queen.
When East showed out of trumps.
the show was over. South could not
avoid the loss OF trump trick. and
Was therefore bound to be set one
trick.
South had no way of telling that
West had started with four trumps,
but he should have known that if
either defender had four trumps. 1t
was more likely to be West. That
sort of inference is very useful, and
can be made almost every time a
defensive bid has been made. The
defensive bidder displays length in
the suit he has bid. and he is there
fore q little more likely to be short
In some other suit than is his part

should have won the second round of
trumps with the king in his own

Today's hand probably belongs in

South misplayed the hand and lost

There is the Desert Christmas cac-

famous of all is the Circus gigan-
teus or giant saguaro. Its spectacu-
lar blossom is the Arizona State

thistle" East of Tucson Is the
Saguaro forest, which dudes visit on
moonlight rides.
Cacti have been used by Mexicans
and early Americans for fences
around their homes or corrals, and
today are an integral part Of
desert ranch or desert home. Sagu-
arc beans are used on the ceilings
of living rooms. Desert landscap-
ing always includes cactus garden.
Certain trees of the desert are
often confused with cacti-one is
the ocotillo. with its spiny leaf, often
used for fences and ramadas. An
other is the Yucca. Desert spoons
that have been used decoratively in
many Eastern homes as well as here
in the West are actually the roots
of the sotol, desert plant that does
not belong to the cacti family.

Life Of 6auchos Shown
In Argentine Museum

BUENOS AIRES, April 19-Only
an hour and a half from Buenos
Aires. Lujan has one of the finest
historical museums in South Amer
lea, one which contains many dis
plays of those famous Argentine
fTontiersmen and cowboys, the
gauchos.
Many travellers shy from museums
but few regret visiting that in Lujan.
Most fascinating display is that Of
the gauchos. who fiourished in Ar
gentina about the time that such
famous frontier characters as Buff
falo Bill, Calamity Jane and Dead
wood Dick of the Black Hills of
South Dakota were still on the North
American scene. Lujan has made
q Ifelike reproduction Of a gaucho
Of the 1870s in wax, with his black
and white pony, silver bride and
picturesque shirtlike costume, or
chiripa.
Instead of shoes or boots the figure
wears q kind OF Logging of rawhide
which comes down over his foot to
cover the heel but leaves the toes
exposed. The lower part of the
costume is combination of loose
trouser and black skirt. The skirt
Is in reality a blanket worn diaper
fashion and caught at the waist.
The gaucho saddle, still the most
popular kind in Argentina, is made
up of several pads, two or three of
wool. At night men used to un-
saddle their horses out on the wild
pampas, lay the pads on the ground
for a bed, loosen their chiripa and
use 1t for covering.
Another gaucho display contains
an old burro-skin hat, covered with
shaggy hair. The displays also con-
tain numerous heavy silver belts
and elaborate brides and saddle
equipment, for gauchos took as great
pride in their riding accessories as
North American cowboys take In
theirs.
The "boleadores," three balls at
tached to a long rope, are of par
ticular interest because of their
contrast with their North American
counterpart, the lasso The balls
are slightly larger than billiard balls.
The thrower holds one of them and
vhirls the rope and the other two
about his head. When thrown well
they wrap around the legs of an
animal and trip 1t. On the great
estancias or ranches of modern
Argentina the boleadores are no
longer used, because they often In
tire livestock.
