AN AliSKNT-MIXDED BURGLAR
THE absent-minded burglar has at last appeared to take
his place alongside the absent-minded professor as a
theme for jesters. In Chicago the other day a man broke
into an apartment and helped himself to $.'5000 worth of
jewels. As he was getting ready to go he saw a nice topcoat
hanging in a closet. His own coat was shabby, so ho tossed
it on the floor, put on the new one and went out. A few hours
later the owners of the place came home and discovered the
burglary. They picked up the burglar's discarded coat and
prepared to throw it away, but a policeman happened to look
in its pockets first. There he found the $;S0()0 jewels. The
burglar had forgotten to transfer them to the pockets of the
new coat.
The grapefruit, these days, is an established part of the
great American breakfast. Every morning it appears on
millions of breakfast tables. It is a fine starter for the reg
ular bacon-and-eggs program. Now, it appears, the British
are getting the habit. The department of commerce has
just discovered that England is now our best foreign market
for grapefruit. I.ast year, for example, more than 421,000
boxes of the fruit were shipped from the United States to
England as contrasted with a mere 15,000 boxes five years
ago. This is good for everybody concerned good for the
English householder, who gets a nice addition to his break
fast menu, and good for the American fruit grower, who
gets a broader market for his produce.
o
Things grow old quickly in this modem world. In Chi
cago, a matter of 1)5 years ago, was built the world's first
skyscraper the Tacoma building, 11 stories tall, erected on
a new principle which made a steel framework carry all the
weight. For years it was a marvel. Architects studied it,
and the lessons it taught led to the construction of the tow
ering buildings that mark every American city. But now it
is being torn down after a scant 35 years of life. It'is
out of date too small, too cramped. In its place will rise a '
building three times as high.
o
The Chicago Tribune has discovered that the jail popu
lation in Kansas lias increased during prohibition. It must
have been interesting news for Chicagoans to learn that
there's a state so old-fashioned that it puts offenders in jail.

A TRUMPET CALL TO BOYS
The Associated freas brings lliis wonderful mcsuiKe from
New York to the boys of tbe nation:
Thomna A. Kdison is scckint; im American Hchool boy'
whose scientific mind mny qtmlify him to carry on the work of
the ureal inventor. Wl;u.i such a boy has been selected by means
ol one ot Mr. Lclison s lamous questionnaires, he will be award
ed four years tuition in the technical school of his own choice.
Hiyh school and preparatory students are eligible."
How wrong to say romance is gone,
For we are in its brightest dawn I
There never was a chance like this;
The very angels stoop tti kiss
1 he brow of each adventurous boy
With chance to reach his highest joy.
No youth in all his wildest dream
Could have invented such a scheme.
All youth arc on n par today;
Proud birth or gold has naught to say,
f he door to fame is open wide
lo boys of every countryside.
And whether they be poor or rich
May to this star their w.igon hitch.
I here is no limit 'ncalh the skies
1 o him who with his genius tries.
There is no chance for wealth or pull,
But he must be with genius full.
Must have a tireless kind of biaiu
1 hal laughs at toil and ceaseless strain;
A body that his mind obeys.
And loves to wotk both nights and days.
And. tilling all, an iron will
That yiuuautecH a net vi'lcss tkill.
Of course, the buy is vciy tntc
Who such a chain - will joy to shatr,
Rut if smnewhrrc lit now mrty wait,
1 his in his chance to challenge fair.
I hope ihr ncarch will find the youth
And open wultt his way to tiuth.
And Hive the woild another mind
Of thin ureal wiurd wonder kind.
