Uncle Roy's Corner

In West Central Mexico there Is q
state which contains most Of the
members Of q certain tribe OF In.
dams. They are known as "Taras-
cans" and we hear Of them FAR back
/, in the history Of white men IN the
New World.
About 250,000 Of the people Of
Mexico are claSsed aS Tarascans.
There are not nearly 50 many OF
them living today as there are
Aztecs or Mayas.
In the time Of Montezuma II much
Of Mexico was under the power Of
tho Aztecs. The Tarascans, how.
ever, kept their freedom.
Cortez and his Spanish soldiers
conquered the Aztecs, but the Tar
ascans fought of the invaders. In
later years their lands were taken
over as part Of the Spanish colony
of Mexico, but they we're not willing
to be good subjects" The spirit OF
revolt was in them.
Among the heroes of these Indians
Is a man known as q warrior
priest" His full name was Don Jose
Maria Morelos y Pavon, but he com.
monty is spoken Of as "Morelos."
In 1910 Morelos joined in an effort
to win freedom from Spain. In the
fighting which followed during the
next five years he proved himself an
able leader. He was captured, how
ever, by Spanish troops and died
before a frin0 Sn,1od
In memory Of Morelos statue has
been built on an island In q lake
where Tarascans fish to this day.
The statue is made up Of concrete
blocks and it rises as high as a six
story building. The hero failed to
live to see Mexico win freedom, but
he is honored for the work he tried
to do.
Several weeks ago spoke of the
dance of the old men" which Tar
ascans perform during service in
honor Of the dead. They also have
other dances, and 1t Is their custom

differs with the various climates.
Usually, the directions say that
seeds may be sown outside as soon
as all danger of late frost is past.
The soil should be free from q
strong acid condition. Lime will
cure this. Good quality beets for
the table depends on quick develop
ment. The land should be fertile,
we'll drained and free from clods or
stones. Well-rotted manure, to
which may be added commercial
fertilizer containing high percent
age Of both phosphorus and potash,
should be applied broadcast before
the seeds are planted.
Where cultivation is done by
hand. the rows should be about Is
inches apart. The beet flea beetle
is very fond of table beets, attacking
them soon after the tender leaves
are above ground. Spray the young
plants with arsenate of lead and see
that no chickweed, pigweed or
lamb's-Quarter are permitted to
grow nearby. These are the nat
ural food plants for these insect
pests.
Crosby Egyptian and Early Won
der are standard varieties Of beets
for summer culture. and Detroit
Dark Red is very satisfactory for
autumn culture for winter use.

beets may be had for = long season.
In the South, this means the year

Beets rank close to the top among

North's bidding was rather incon-
sistent, to put 1t mildly. A hand
that warrants no better than a
single raise on the first round can
scarcely justify two more raises
while partner remains silent. How
ever, it is possible that North ex-
pected weak defense.
West opened the spade five. The
ace was taken and declarer imme-
diately ruffed spade. A low heart
was led to the king, and a club re-
turned. East ducked and declarer's
nine went to Vests TO- West, feel
ing that If declarer wanted to ruff
spades he shouldn't be assisted in
that idea, now shifted to his top
diamond. This was very satisfactory
to declarer who captured East's 10
with the queen. South laid down
the trump ace, then carefully led
the queen of clubs. 1t was at this
point that Vests fear of losing an
ace proved his sides undoing. He
dashed in with the club ace and
returned spade. Declarer CRATE
fully ruffed; ruffed a club in dunn
my, then flneSsed against the dia-
mond king and led good diamonds.
East took the last trick-but only
the third defensive trick-with the
queen of trumps.
If West had ducked the club
queen, as he so obviously should
have done, East would have won
and drawn declarer's last trump
the one that was so valuable in
ruffing the second spade. More
over, it was rather surprising that
West should have been afraid of
losing his ace. Did he think that
South had the king and queen of
clubs after he played the nine on
the first club lead?

New York, N. Y, July "a, 1943:-
There is to be a roll-back of res
taurant prices in New York which
on the surface of things is good
news but in many cases not nearly
as invigorating to the pocket-book
as it sounds. The reason is that
many places had, previous to the
roll-back date, established a food
on-a-la-car basis or so changed
the menus construction that they
are generally getting higher prices
than what we considered normal
levels before rigid control.
Lately there has been a tendency
to cut down use of dishes, silver
war and novelties for table use
the idea being to eliminate consid-
cradle work. 1t is almost impossible
to get necessary bus boys, dish
washers, waiter and other needed
help to maintain service on a grand
style.
The humble Automat is no better
than the aristocratic Barclay in this
regard. At the Automat young peo-
pie are doing a masterful job. The

Saucers, however, seems to be very
limited and sometimes a wait is
necessary. In many Automats the
absence of saucers is most notice.
able. At tables where an attendant
used to dole out spoonful of sugar
to each customer, are big bowls for
each beverage user to take what
ever amount is needed though a
request is posted that only one
spoonful be used.
In the Barclays famous Terrace
Garden, noticed a young man
carrying dishes. He looked all of
fourteen years old. questioned him
on his age and he seemed quite up
set offering to get his working
papers. I was not shopping, how
ever, and can say only words of
high praise for the young fellow. In
fact, compared with some others
that have been on that kind of a
| job this lad was worth two of twice
the legal age to work. He was neat
in appearance, particular with his
work, and quick on his toes besides
very polite.
The Barclay is a place one might
guess to be very expensive. A lunch
con can be enjoyed for less than a
dollar and half in an cooled
restaurant or cafe. I Doubt If it
could be beat anywhere in New
York at that price, in similar at
mosphere with quality, service and
size of portions comparable.
1t is one of the few left where
this and that dish does not cost
additional to the meal price. Too
many restaurant operators are
smart alecky by holding the appear
ance Of the menu so that on first
glance one expects to pay, or
through habit expects the price of
the fixed menus for a full meal but
later discovers soup was fifteen
cents more, dessert twenty cents
more or cocktail sauce extra and
here and there a charge for bread
and butter whether customer eats
1t or not.

During the blackouts which fol-
lowed the attack at Pearl Harbor,
Daniels became interested in knife
making. Now he has Is knives in
use against the enemy. He can fin
ish one in six to eight hours, so his
output will be something for the
Japs to reckon with before the end
Of the war.
Stationed at Pearl Harbor as a

action during the Japanese attack
on Dec. Z. He and his group of men
shot down four enemy planes,

z men AND DOG
HELD EQUAL TO
6-MAN PATROL
BY ROSEMARY MULLANY

United Press Staff Correspondent
A Coast Guard Station, Cal. CUP)
-Fido, the monarch of the Amer
lean home, is today one of its most
effective and trusted defenses.
At hundreds of patrol stations
like this one, both on domestic and
foreign shore, Dogs for Defense
have put teeth into that facile Slo-
gan. They also stand ready to sink
their teeth into the gun arm of a
stranger with a speed bred OF in
tensive training.
Here they patrol windy beaches
at night with two men, the trio
functioning as a unit which officers
said with the equivalent in efflci-
ency of six men. Two men were as
signed to each animal when was
accepted for service. The men have
gone through eight weeks training
with the dog.
Obey Instantly
The dogs obey one-Word COM
mands instantaeouSly and in some
cases before the man has the word
completely out.
"Sit," down." Watch" and
stay compromise each dogs work
ing vocabulary. Most of these mean
just what they meant when uttered
by Joe Doakes, to Fido on the
streets of Oshkosh. watch is the
exception.
At that command the dog is au-
thoriZed by one of the men with
him to open active defense measures
against any suspicious individual
approaching. The dog strains fierce
ly at his long leash. He does not
growl. His eyes never leave the ap-
preaching figure. When it comes
within the radius of his leash he
lunges for the gun arm.
At this point one of the few vari-
ables in the behavior of defense
dogs is manifested. Officers at this
patrol station said one technique Is
a sustained mouth -stretcher. The
other is rapid clicking of the
tusky pincers. Both methods are
equally effective, the officers said.
Glisten Like Show Dogs
Dobermans and sheep dogs are
a strong majority at this station.
There is also one combination of
chow and sheep dog and one
French Poodle.
During their off-duty daylight
hours, the dogs spend most of their
time sleeping and eating. They are
housed in kennels with separate
quarters for each dog divided into
inside and outside space. The dogs
appearance suggests they might be
being prepared for a show-their
coats glisten and hardly hair is
out of place.
Off duty, the dogs set up an i'm
mediate chorus of banks at the ap-
proach of stranger.
Owners Of dogs accepted for
service are told at what school
their dog is being trained. Once the
dog is assigned to duty, however,
his owner does not know where he
is. Release of this information
would result in a constant stream
of visitors, whose mutterings of
sweet nothings might inure the dogs
to civilians or strangers, thereby
jeopardizing the effectiveness of
their training, officers said.
