keeper, Westminster. Maryland,
The Newman Press, 1858, $500.
Aunt Minnie, a dominating wom-
an with whom no one would dare
to disagree, is nevertheless greatly
beloved by her many friends and
acquaintance. Her tremendous sue
cess as Father Peters house keep
er is due both to contagious spirit
and to her enviable culinary prov
ess. The reader of this book of
heightened anecdotes is particu-
larly aware of this fact by the
time he has finished the book since
he has been heartily reminded of
it in each of the first nine chap
ters.
In spite of the factlthat this book
would be improved BY more exten-
sive editorial pruning or coordin-
alton, it will afford the reader a
pleasantly humorous interlude, and
painless peek into the daily life
of the typical young pastor.
One of the feature attractions
of the book is the thought provok-
! ing but brief analysis of American
humor by Rev. Leonard ]. Flick,

The workers were willing to

the kites they had been build

pins and nails In the ends Of

to flying around ell Of Santa

For 10 days and 10 nights
they took turns flying the kites.
Seven times they saw saucer.
But not once did they catch one.
Now Tom was truly shamed.

whose face is not so well
known as his name, Octavus
Roy Cohen has had his
share of impostorS.
Some years ago, in Den
yer, he learned that a bogus
Octavus Roy Cohen was to
speak at a literary club. De-
termined to expose the man,
Cohen went to the meeting.
The moment the man had
finished, Cohen was on his
feet. Before he could say a
word, however, the chair
man broke in with the an
nouncement that Miss Edna
Ferber was present. Cohen,
who long had ben eager to
meet her, CRASHED his teeth
in fury while the phony
Cohen chatted with her.
Finally he had his oppor-
tunity to expose the man.
BY that time. however, Miss
Ferber had departed.
Weeks later in New York,
Cohen phoned the novelist.
This is Octavus Roy
Cohen" he told her, "the
man you thought you were
introduced to in Denver last
month"
"Who? What are you
talking about?" replied Miss
Ferber, with more than a
trace of suspicion. II haven't
been in Denver in years."

Natures Children
By LiIIion Cox Athey
ROadrunner.

The State bird of New Mexico
has a vast number of admirers.
You rarely see him unless he is
streaking along the sunny road
in pursuit of feet beetles, grass
hoppers, mice or centipedes.
Snakes he can overtake. Lizards
he always outwits.
The Streamlined body, covered
with a plumage of tawny-brown
above and buff-white below per-
mits the camouhaged runner to
hide among the desert growth.
He is 20 to "a inches long. His
tail feathers are graduated to
permit quick passage through
the cactus covered hunting
grounds.
On the back of his we'll
shaped head, blush, erect crest
adds distinction. In the bright
sunshine, glints of red, bronze
and green play over the plum
age. The long, sharp bill goes
well with the blush white bare
space about the alert yellow
eyes.
One of the amazing sights is
a nest of roadrunner infants be-
ing fed. Lizards are captured by
the parents and fed to the hun
CRY baby by pushing it head first
into the wide open mouth Of the
infant. AS the morSel is digested
a gulp sends it farther down TN
til only the tail may be seen.
There are from four to six
young roadrunnerS occupying
the compact nest in a formidable
cactus or low thorny bush. The
outside is composed of slender
sticks. The interior is made COM
Portable with inner bark and
soft grass mingled with feathers.
Extensive farming in his des-
ert habitat is forcing the quaint
roadrunner farther from sight.
Once in a while the bird will
join chickens being fed. He
never brings his mate or young
along.
The bird often remains per-
fectly still, observing the &C
tivity about him. Only his alert
eyes give him away and once he
has looked into your eyes he has
silently and swiftly removed
himself to another safety zone.

3 spade pass 4spade all pass
Mr.. Meek opened the ace and
another spade. Mr.. Abel got off
on the wrong foot at once by
deciding to go after the hearts
instead of the diamond.
AS you see, he could have won
the second spade in his hand,
leaving the jack on the board as
an entry. Then he could have
set up the diamonds by cashing
the king and ace and ruflng a
third round in his hand. This
line of play would have brought
him four spade tricks. five dia-
monds and two hearts.
But actually he won the second
trick with the jack Of spades on
the board. Next he led a small
heart and finesSed the queen. So
far, so good. Now he laid down
the ace of hearts. And Mrs. Keen
played the king.
It now appeared to Mr.. Abel
that if he tried to ruff a heart
with dummy'S nine Of spades,
Mrs. Keen would over-ruff with
the ten. Then if Mr.. Meek'S hand
could be reached with the ace of
clubs, he would be able to lay
down the jack of hearts for the
setting trick.
This prospect made Mr.. Abel
jittery. He decided to play the
rest of the hand wide open. He
took out Mrs. Keen's last trump,
cashed the king of diamonds and
led his small diamond.
After an agonizing study he
played the jack from dummy
and Mrs. Keen won the lone
queen. She cashed two good
hearts and the ace of clubs for
a 2-trick set.
Note that Mr.. Abel's original
line of play Crying to set up
his hearts, would have been
successful. If he had ruffed a
third lead of that suit in dummy,
he could have returned to his
hand with the king of diamonds,
extracted the last trump and
thrown Mrs. Keen in with a
fourth round of hearts.
At that stage Mrs. Keen would
have had left nothing but clubs
and the lone queen of diamonds
The best she could have done
was to cash the ace of clubs.
But her play of the king OF
hearts under the ace ca card
she was known to hold) guided
Mr.. Abel into a losing line OF
play.

A status report on the Memorial Swimming Pool fund was given this week as the fund neared it's fifth year of collections.
 Started in August of 1850 the fund was established at the re- quest of Mr and Mrs. c. E. Shey whose son David was drowned in Bear Lake. The accident was attributed to the fact that David could not swim.
 In the ensuing years a total of $1145.94 has been given to the fund in the name of David and others. A total of 7S separate do- nations have been received, how ever, this does not give a fair indication of the number of don- ors since in many cases many persons were represented in a single donation.
