ONE THAT NEVER FAILS
RETURNING TO SWORD PLAY
Naw York Children In Their Game,
Seam to Have Abandoned "Mod
ern Warfare."
Playwrights and theatrical producer
predict the return of the costume play
and the swaKhbuckUn melodrama. Hut
the youngster of New York seem to
have realized thlt prophecy In their
guinea.
Wooden swords, umbrella rib dag
gers and crossbows have supjdanted
dummy rides and barrel stave urtil
lery ide.es that were popularized by
the World war.
Sword play, with lih kory rapiers and
fragile crate-cover cutlasses seem to
have asserted a romantic appeal over
Infantry charges and vocal "hlng!
hangs!" The vacant lot Is no longer
no man's land, hut a rock-strewn heath
or a tin tun Infested moor, where
Krnnkie and Johnny would "do each
other IS mortal combat as Spaniard
and , Dutchman In the lowlands."
There Is more realism In the sword
than In the pistol, with which one
must say "Iiing!" Hung!" Hock piles
have become castles afej the fashion
of the Arthurian legends and lance
armed knights guard drawbridges of
planks or old doors over Imitation
moat. Pittsburgh Dispatch.
Last fall O. L. Bemice drove his
flock of (sheep .down from thc
grazing lands in the Mount Adams
forest reserve to winter quarter near
White Salmon, Wash.
In a fog he lost 40 head and a
dog was missing. No trace of the
wanderers was found in a week's
t'iligent search. Recently the dog
lurried up at the house with 3!) sheep,
all but ono having wintered some
where under the guidance of the
watchful shepherd.
Sheepmen are at a loss to account
for the fact that the dog was able to
keep off predatory animals, for in
winter wolves, cougars and coyotes
prey continually on sheep.
You can't always tell about a dog
by his looks. Once there was a dog
that nobody claimed. He had no
pedigree. His bones almost pierced
his flesh. His head and tail hung at
htlf mast. He had a bruise on his
hip from a man's kick, when some
body salvaged him. He cringed and
trembled when anybody attempted to
touch him. He was an outcast, a
wanderer, an Ijshmaelite.
A 'time came when his owner
wouldn't have sold him for all the
gold that was ever mined. Given a
square deal, this canine outcast be
came, for the good deeds he did, a
famous dog.
The sheep dogs of Scotland an
guidew and defenders, ' not only
of the sheep flocks but also of
the children of the crofters. But for
these born shepherds of the weak and
defenseless it would be unsafe for the
children to go far from the lonely and
isolated crofts in the outlying dis
tricts. The schools are far away,
and it is a long, rough journey across
the moor to the school and back again.
So the sheep dog goes along with
the children, carrying their books and
safeguarding them on their way.
Over the dog's back the books are
slung, and so long as there is life
in his body no harm will come to the
children or their belongings.
The dog is better appreciated since '

teen and kit the war dogs ministered
I to the wounded and helpless on the i
battlefields, passing from one wound- j

and carrying the first aid thatj
saved thousands of lives and relieved
infinite suffering.
In memory of his service a heroic
statue of the war dog, designed by a
famous sculptor, has been erected
near White .Plains, New York.
It is a monument to a friend that

On of Great City' Tragedies.
An old tlme tragedy of the Central
Markets, I'arls, bus been recalled by
the death at an advanced age of a
once rich woman, who for many years
made a poor living there overturning
garbage cans and selling anything of
value she might be able to find there
in. Her name was unknown, and for
nearly half a century she was merely
called "Princess." Fifty years ago it
was fashionable for persons of high
society In I'arls to pass a riotous night
In the enfes and stalls of the market.
On cme occasion u fashionable womnn.
one of a gay party, was robbed of
money and Jewel, persumably by her
escort. Left eiuii!es. she refused,
for rensons easily surmisable, to com
tnunlci re with her husband or her
family In central Trance. Instead she
sought employment and gradually fell
Into er ireme poverty. She got her nick
name owing to her Invariable habit,
when asked about her former life, of
reply! 'ig: "Ask no questions; I am a
prlnct-is from a far country."
Smiling Porches.
Mo,e houses are being built with
IncJoaed porches than ever before;
you mny walk down long streets of
dear Utile homes whose porches smile
at you through tiny panes of glass.
You puss medium-sized places with
grounds, comfortable houses set back
from the road, and large mansions
in every one somewhere you catch the
glimpse of an enclosed porch-room
Old-fashioned houses follow suit, and
back of the rounded Colonial pillars
are fitted smaJl-paned glass partitions
that Inclose the porch as efficaciously
as though It had been built that way
in thu beelnnlng. In the summer these
are lifted out, leaving the porch as
before. The Designer.
Canada PuahinQ Honey Industry.
It Is expected that Ontario's honey
crop next season will be marketed
largely on the co-operntlve system,
as a result of the activities of the
committee appointed recently by the
Ontario Hee Keepers' association, and
with the assistance of the Ontario
government. The honey will be graded
and have a registered brand for the
protection of consumers. Each pack
age will have a distinguishing number,
by which It enn be traced back to the
producer.
Snails in London Restaurants.
English ofllcers who served In
France during the wnr acquired In
many cases a tnste for frogs' legs and
snails hitherto unknown to London

they demanded the same tidbits In
London and now both frogs' legs and
snails are conveyed (laity from France
to London by airplane. Some of the
London restaurants nre doing an enor

STUMP BURNING NEAR
FALLS CITY IN MAY
Utilization of many hundred of
acres of logged-off lands in the vicin
ity of Falls City, in the western part
of Polk county, is planned. Stump
burning demonstrations' are to be held
there beginning early in May.
The demonstrations, which are to
be held by the extension service of the
Oregon Agricultural College in co
operation with the county agent,
will show a modification of the char
pitting method. The bowl of the
stump and entire root system are
destroyed. The land-clearing move
ment is becoming of increasing im
portance in this county, where large
areas that have been logged over are
now lying idle. Owners who have
considered the expense of holding
these acreages have decided to take
steps to improve the land, as it is be
lieved that some tillable land can bei
made to result.
If the plan Io be shown at this
demonstration proves successful,
many farmers who have smaller
tracts to clear are planning to adopt
it. Dallas Itemizer.
FRUIT MEN WANT COLD
STORAGE IN PORTLAND
At a Meeting held in Portland,
Monday, representatives from practi
cally all of the" fruit districts of the
Northwest, .Including California sat
with the Portland dock commission.
It was the purpose c this meeting to
place before the commission, the
needs of the fruit interests of the
northwest of suitable cold storage
facilities, which would enable ship
pers to hold fruit at Portland without
loss, before making shipments by
water. This would prevent "dump
ing" of fruit, eliminate the cause for
excessive cargoes and would tend to
equalize the market. This will not
impose a burden of expense on the
growers, but will rather cause an In
crease in returns due to better
methods of caring for the fruit at
terminals. According to C. I. Lewis,
who represented the Oregon Growers
Cooperative association, the outlook
is very optimistic and it is expected
that definite plans will be made at a
later date.
The committee on the advertising
cf the Northwest boxed apple met at
Portland, Monday, to outline plans
for this season's advertising.
Practleally all apple districts sign
ified their intention oi combinng in
this project, except Wenatchee. A
sub-committee will be detailed to
Wenatchee to solicit their cooperation
in the matter of advertising. "Un
less all districts can get together,"
said .C I. Lewis, chairman of the
committee, "the campaign will bo
dropped until next year."
C I. Lewie, chairman of this com
mittee presented his resignation due
to his leaving for the east. C. A.
Swigart was elected to succeed him.
