fine as I saw -anywhere, It was
Saturday afternoon . and jail the
people aeemed bent on spending
what they had earned during the
week, iln fact the crush was so
great that we fled to the pier and
the pike where, although it wes
busy, there was not the crowd as
the day was just a little chilly for
being that close to the water al
though the hot-dog counters were
doing a very r enviable business.
Out on the, Pier there seemed to
be some sort . of convention so we
wedged In to ascertain what it was
all about. There seemed to be a
great deal of argument going on
and by elbowing into the heart of
One little group we found two old
men with bristling beards, split
fins religious sub-subjects 'into
atoms.- Not being Interested in
their ideas of future fire we hove
near another and with much wedg
ing; found the nucleus which this
time was political. There were
dozens of these little groups and I
was of the opinion tht they were
delegates to some thing; fd asknd
a young lad what was on. ? Oh.
they're Just a bunch of old fellows
who like to come down here and
listen to the band and each other.
No, it'a no convention, just a' reg
ular thing." - ,
t By the way, I never saw so many
old men in on o city In my life as
can be eeen in Long Beach. They
say that half of the city came from
Iowa.. They may have, I don't
know, but ail I say looked' like
ketlred easterners and most of
them, appear to bare come from
the rural parts.. Passing back by
the city park I saw more of them,
engaged in croquet and pitching
horse shoes. I might also add that
If you want to see soma real horse
shoe pitching7 that is the place.
Near the; Pier below on the
sands' we saw some' work of the
sand artists. They had worked

Our fourth Christmas seal sale
was i started off the day after
Thanksgiving. While In some dis
tricts the sale was larger than
ever before, many others eame far
below the average. Over $100
worth of seals were lost in the
mails, so, altogether, out total was
below that of last year. The total
for 1923 being $2220.46 and for
1924 it was $2197.50. Only
$2187.50 of this shows ' on the

been sent to the Portland office
by mistake and was afterwards
credited to us.
Of this money $765.16 la Marion

of the whole, or .4 and a fraction

who hear this account of Marion
county's seal sale will go home
firmly determined to raise the per

year. It can be done, and must
be done if we, as an association,
ever expect to do anything worth
while. : :

EVEREST CLIMBERS
F0UP.D BUTTERFLIES
; AT GREAT ALTITUDES
? LONDON, March 28 The can
nibal spiders that live near the
top" of Mt. Everest exist at higher
altitudes' than airy other animals
known to man. They ! were de
scribed recently to the Royal Ge
ographical Society by Major R.
W. G. Hingston, naturalist of the
Mt. Everest expedition of 1924. j
These spiders live in islands of
broken rock surrounded by snow
and ice, and for food they eat
one another. Traces of this per
manent -animal existence were
found far above the Himalayan
snow line, and some- 4000 feet
above the last vegetable growth,
Major Hingston explained.
A general Idea of the natural
life on the mountainous desert of
the Tibetan plateau was given in
the lecture. The atmosphere is
so dry that the skin and nails of
"human beings split,, and the ord
inary decomposition of flesh is
prevented altogether. I ;
Wild sheep and mountain hares
climb up the ranges, even to the
barren slopes at 17,000 feet.
"There is a little red-start which
builds its nest at the same inhos
pitable height, and we found
grasshoppers at 18,000 feet, near
the furtherest ' line of vegetable
growth," Major Hingston declared.
"There were-bees,, moths and
even butterflies at 21, COO feet,
he said, "and doughs, a. kind of
crow, at the immense height of
27,000 feet'
To contend with the scarcity of
food in those regions, some of the
birds had specially modified bills
for digg'ng Into frozen soil, so that
they might reach , hibernating " in
sects. Burrowing and hibernat
ing "are the means by which many
animals escape the extreme cold
and manage to exist.
Some "birds formed communi
ties with mammals. Many little
birds associated with ' mouse
hares, and there was "perfect con
fidence and harmony among them.
At greater heights, on the almost
barren mountains, was an assoc
iation of doughs and wild sheep.
The clough sit3 on the sheep's
back, and searches for Insects In
the animal's hair.
England Perfecting Control '
Of Airplanes By Wireless
LONDON, March- 28 Certain
residents ,or the south coast of
England were much astonished
recently when an air flying ma
chine1 fell into the Ocean ahd the
authorities showed no undue an
xiety about the fate of the pilot
who, it was assumed, was aboard.
After a while the air force men
calmly put out In a skiff and tow
ed the fallen plane to shore. - The
secret then leaked out that th"e
machine had been without a pilot
and that the accident was brought
about by the plane passing be
yond the radius of the wireless
controlling force.
It was then learned for the
first time that "the planes seen for"
many weeks past circling In the
air over this territory had all beei
without pilots; the control was by
radio from a shore station.
