When some one speaks of a kan
earoo, we are likely to think of a
large animal with great jumping
power.
That idea is quite right in regard
10 many kangaroos, but there are
others which are not at all large.
The smallest member of the whole
family is the rat kangaroo"
The rat kangaroo, when full
grown, is only the size of a rabbit.
1t can jump fairly we'll. but does not
make nearly such long leaps as the
larger kangaroos.
Rat kangaroos are found on low
hills of Australia and on the island
OF Tasmania. They build their nests
out of grass. and have the odd habit
OF using their tails as hands. The
tail can be twisted so it holds tuft
of grass; in that way grass is carried
to the nest.
Large sized kangarooS cannot use
their tails in that way but they are
interesting for other reasons. Some
times you may see as many as 100
together. During hot summer
weather, they enjoy spending their
time in small, damp valley, well
grown with bushes and saplings.
There they bask in the sun, half

shrubs, or tumble about in play.
The front legs of the kangaroo are
small compared to the hind ones. On
each forepaw are five sharp claws.
The hind paws have four claws each,
two of them small and two large and
strong. The large claws on the hind
feet are the chief means of defense.

Arise, o children, in your wrath:
Come. gather meath the banner

Rebel against the manner
IN which the grownup slmpleton
The addle- Drained and giddy),
With idiotic smile refers
To each of you as "kiddy."
Discard the ball and paper doll;
Throw down the toy and rattle.
Come, grid your loins with rubber

March on, enfants, to battle!

Well blitz. o chickabiddies,

catch up a dog with the forelegs and
cause deep wounds by scratching
with the claws of the hind legs. Such
wounds have killed many dog.
The hind legs give the kangaroo
its leaping power. 1t bounds across
the ground at swift rate, and some
of the leaps measure from Is to 30
feet.
Kangaroos are born blind, as are
puppies. Even the young Of the
largest ones are hardly an inch in
length when they come into the
world.
Australians call young kangaroos
"joeys." A female is called a "f1y-

REPORTED DYING
German Injured by U. S. Min
lister Cannot be Found in
Bulgaria, However

SOFIA, Bulgaria, Feb. 24.-RH
Officials Of the United States le-
cation said tonight they were try
ing to track down repeated reports
that a German injured by Min
lister George H. Earle is dying OF
a fractured skull.
A check of hotels and hospitals
failed to disclose any trace of the
man.
He and Earle engaged in an al
tercation at a restaurant near the
legation early yesterday over the
orchestra's playing of 'Tipperary'
at the American ENJOYS request.
A spokesman for the German 1e-
cation said it had been established
that the man was not "a member
of the legation staff or a German
officer and therefore he must have
been a private citizen" He added
that the German legation was con
Quoting its own investigation.
Earle himself said he had re-
ceived n report that the man
was dying of a skull fracture. He
said the best information he had
been able to obtain was that the
man was a member of the German
general staff.
He said that lone of the Off
GERS who had recently filtered from
Rumania into Bulgaria in civilian
clothes" had been shipped by Ger
man officials back to Bucharest:
Earle added that the German le-
cation had declined to disclose the
mans name and was maintaining
strange secrecy"
The official German news agen-
cy, DNB, issued a version of the
affair in which it said Earle was
responsible for the fight and
charged that this was Earle's
fourth barroom brawl" in the
