Numbers of Thass 8oelstles Kill Their
Victims With Sharp Iron
Claws.
P. Asmaury Talbot, who had an op
portunity to learn something about two
of the best-known Leopard societies,
lias this to say In Adventure Magu-
zlne about the Sierra Leone branch:
’’Members of this society can often
be recognized at sight, as many of
them have the sharply protruding fore
head, caused by pressure applied In
Infancy by their mothers.
“When the society wishes to kill a
man certain members are chosen for
the deed. These are armed with a set
of Iron Instruments fastened Inside
both hnnds, and they track their vic
tim until they come upon him In a
lonely part of the bush. They watch
their opportunity, suddenly spring
upon him from behind and seize him
by the throat. Should the body ever
be discovered, the marks upon It so ex
actly resemble those made by leopard
claws that the death Is put down to
those beasts.’’
So that the claws are useful as well
as emblematic I And it Is evident that
members of the Leopard society are
brought up to It from Infancy.
Stora Wracked by Autos 40 Times.
There Is a corner drug store In
Paris close to the terminus of the
Northern railroad which possesses an
Irresistible attraction for motor-driven
vehicles. Placed Just below the meet
ing point of two rapidly descending
streets. It has been wrecked forty
times In the last thirteen years. Three
months ago a motorcyclist drove
through Its glass front and died on
the spot. A few days later a motor
jorry crashed through Into the middle
pf the shop without causing any fatali
ties. Recently a taxicab went right
through the store, brenklng the large
red-colored globes that still mark a
drug store In France, overturning the
counter and doing about $1,500 worth
of damage to the stock. The proprie
tor of the store complains that these
repeated mishaps are ruining his busi
ness ; his shop is forever under repairs
and customers go elsewhere.

BIRD MELODIES AND MUSIC
Beautiful Passages in Works af Great
Composers Borrowed From Feath
ered Blngore.
The successful broadcasting of the
song of canaries and the response of
other birds mile* away from the point
of transmlaslon will provide new im
petus for tho discussion of the con
tribution bird melodies have made to
music. It has been claimed by close
students of bird life that many of the
most beautiful passages in the works
of great composers are lifted note by
note from the birds, and that the pa
tient watcher may hear Beethoven
from the throat of an oriole, note for
note and measure for measure, em
phasis and everything. Nor la this the
only Incident cited. They number, lit
erally, score». There la nothing sur
prising in this. Bird-music Is the most
fluent and natural In the world; so-
called coloratura voices merely are In
Imitation of the bird voice, and their
most noted numbers are usually enti
tled with some alluaon to birds. No
one who haa listened to the surprising
flights of melody of which a canary is
capable but marvels at the mysteries
which create such a tiny, delicate and
perfect mechanism.—-Detroit News.
Glvsa $50 for Twins.
Max Dick, owner of the tenement
house at 09-73 Rlvlngton street. New
York, which la known as the “house
of babies,” because 52 families with
more than 200 children live there, re
cently made good hla standing promise
to present cash prizes to tenants who
became parents of twins. Mr. and Mrs.
Jacob Berger became the possessors
of twins, which brought their family
up to five. The twins, a boy and a girl,
each weighing 5H pounds, were named
Samuel and Esther. “Uncle" Dick, as
he Is called, attended the feast nnd
afterward handed Mrs. Berger $50 In
gold and told her that ahe could forget
rent day until the end of February.
Max Dick has a unique record among
East aide landlords. He has not in
creased the rent In twenty-five years
and has never ousted a Jobless tenant
for nonpayment of rent. He arrived
here penniless forty years ago from
Austria. First he worked In a tailor’s
shop and then he tended bar. With
his savings he bought the tenement
house. In 1908 he offered $50 for
every pair of twins born there and
$180 for the ninth child If It were a
boy. At the same time he assured his
tenants that large families would not
mean high rents and he has kept his
word.
Tea Rich to Ba a Communist.
Questions of doctrine continue to
trouble Communists—both punillts In
high places and the simple minded
faithful In the villages. Heretical con
duct, as well as heretical opinion. Is
ground for excluding men from the
party.
The story Is told of a humble and
sincere Communist rural
family,
where the wife was an enterprising
woman of the thrifty, “managing”
type. She gradually accumulated a
pig, some fowls and some rabbits,
which multiplied until by selling part
of them and a few household belong
ings ahe was able to buy a cow. Thus
eventually ahe developed a little stock
farm.
However, the family’» unusual
standard of well being was looked
upon with suspicion by the husband’s
fellow Communist», who derided to
exclude him from the party. In the
course of his trial for heresy the deli
cate point came up as to Just how
many turkeys changed a Communist

The very la te « official word from

of which Major-General Allen, com

Rhine during occupational days, la na
tional director, is that conditions In
Germany beggar description. Millions
of children, under nourished because

is declared officially in dispatches
from General Allen end Herbert

make of this situation one of the m o«
appalling in the world’s history. Babes

Other ways have been tried, without

“Oregon w ill do its share, which haa

MacNaughton, Portland, who was
state director for the Hoover food re
lief campaign for Europe here In 1921,
and who is state chairman for this
campaign. “Word ts reaching our

which German children are faced, and
that they are ready to respond with
their money to alleviate th i* terrible
suffering. All possible speed should
be made in thia work and we are or

to that end. I appeal on behalf of the
Innocent ones for hearty co-operation,
for prompt and liberal response in
