ANTA MONICA, CALIF— In England it has been de cided that fox-hunting is hu mane. This opinion emanates from the hunters. The foxes have not been heard from on the subject. S Maybe you don’t know it, but there’s a lot of fox-hunting among us, especially down south. Being but a lot of stubborn non- conformists, south erners do not follow the historic rules. A party at large wear ing a red coat, white panties and high boots would be - mistaken for a ref ugee from a circus - band. And anybody blowing a horn as Irvin S. Cobb This remarkable picture was made just as the giant German dirigible Hindenburg burst into flames he galloped across and exploded as it was preparing to land at Lakehurst, N. J., following a flight from Germany. Ninety-eight hill and dale would be set down as persons aboard were plunged to earth in the flaming wreckage. Thirty-four died almost instantly and of the an insane fish peddler; and if you 64 rescued, many were horribly injured. An explosion of a gas cell in the stern was blamed for the disaster. shouted “View, halloo! Tantivy, tantivy! Yoicks, yoicks!” or words to that effect, they’d think you were a new kind of hog-caller. Down there they’ve chased the fox until he’s wise. The foxes have learned that the hounds can’t fol low trail on a paved highway and so quit the thicket for the concrete when the chase is on.

LIFE’S LIKE THAT By Fred Neher NE reason why moving pictures are so clean is because some Dog’s Tonsils Out While You Wait of the people who censor them have a such dirty minds. To the very pure everything is so impure, is it □ a not? That’s why some of us think the weight of popular opinion, rath 0 er than the judgment of narrow- brained official judges in various □ states, should decide what should and what should not be depicted. Anyhow, there are so many movies r which, slightly amending the old i ballad, are more to be pitied than censored. Sponsors of radio programs also lean over backward to be prudishly proper. But without let or hindrance the speaking stage, month by month, grows fouler and filthier. Suggestive lines once created a shock in the audience mind. The lines no longer suggest—they come right out and speak the nastiness. Sauce for the goose isn’t sauce for the gander, ‘twould seem—or may be, after the reformers got through saucing radio and screen, there wasn't any left over for the so- called legitimate stage.
