Daily Visits of George and Pete
At Crossing Halted ty Illness
(I!y Mary (irchier) .
The friendship between l'ete Ar
cade, Southern Taelfic flagman
and little fleorge Maddux, dimfnu
tlve colored bootblack, which has
existed for over five years, reach
ed a touching 'climax yesterday
at the Sacred Heart, when the
latter went to see bis friend, who
was rushed to the hospital for a
major operation Monday.
"J-ittlc (icorge" didn't know that
the flagman had any other name
than Pete, and the Italian knew
the bootblack simply as "Utile
(Horge." For five years they
have had their dally visit at the
crossing tin Main street; talked
politics, exchanged town gossip
nnd kidded each other n bit.
Monday, I'ete was missing and lit
tle (icorge called up the Southern
Pacific to find the reason why.
He thought probably the railroad
company hadn't appreciated "'the
services of his friend, nnd he was
going to use his influence' to get
him reinstated.

Cannibals Don't Mean It,
Writes a French Traveler
By X. Itcyitotds Packard
Tutted Press Staff Correspondent.
I A U I S ( U. I ) Cu n n Ibals a re
nice, friendly people who really do
not mean to eat human . beings
when they make a meal out of a
plump missionary or the fat chief
of ad enemy tribe. In fact, they
would be very conscience stricken
I if told that they had partaken of
their fellow-man. ,
That is the belief of Pierre Mllle.
Krench journalist nnd traveler,
who has written In "Ie Quotldlen"
about bis adventures among canni
bals in the Congo. The whole
misunderstanding about this man
eating business, he contends,
hinges on the totem-pole, known
as tnnna in the language of many
primitive people.
"The totem or tannn symbolizes
to these people a mythical ances
tor, generally an animal," explains
Mile. "Kach tribe believes it Is
descended from a lion, an elephant
' a tiger or some other beast. Ah u
consequence a tribesman Is forbid
den to ent of the animal symboliz
ing his tribe or any member of
his tribe. He can, of course, make
a supper on the people of another
tribe because they are descended
from another animal."
In other words, when a member
of the lion clan, with Kpicurean
zest, digests a member of the cow
tribe, he is under ,tho Impression
that he is merely eating a veal
cutlet. TERRY TALENT TO
After making Med ford his head
quarters for the past Jhree years ah
a federal prohibition agent, Terry
Talent bft today for Portland lo
hand in his resignation, after
which he wilt take up duties with
the Cnlted States narcotic sipiud
with headquarter In Seattle, where
I he Will be located for some time.
This means promotion ami a sub
stantial raise in salary.
He had been connected with the
federal prohibition department for
three years, preceded by two years
xervice with the state department,
lie is recognized throughout the
state as one of the most active of
ficers of the dry force and has
hundreds of arrests to his credit,
including a large number In soutn
ern Oregon.
His successor has not -been
named, and it Is not known wheth
er another officer will lake bis
place In I his territory.
AID DRUG SQUAD
CASE RE-OPENED
doubted over on his high white
I bed in the hospital with the tor-
tares that accompany ulcers of
the stomach. , He underwent the
serious operation ' and bis life
hangs In the balance.
Utile Jeorge huHd that no vis
I flnrs were allowed in the sick
' room, but be gave up an nntici
j pated New V.ear'H trip to Klam
I ath Falls, to take a chance on it
j any way. Appealing to the phy
! sicians and nurses, he was finally
admitted, and sat as long as they'd
let him, on the chair beside his
friend's bed.
"1 wanted to bring Peto some
flowers, but I was afraid if I
stopped to get them I wouldn't
get there myself," said the boot
black. .'"When I did get there they
said there wasn't no visitors nl-
lowed. Mut 1 told the nurse to
tell I'ee that there was a 'cullud
gentleman' out in the hall. And
when -'she came, out again, she
took me in. As 1 left, 1'eto was
smilin a little bit anyway, and
wished me a happy New Year,'"
he said. '
Millo has observed that canni
bals after being Converted to the
Christian or Moslem faith are Im
mediately filled with horror at the
Idea of eating human flesh. They
have come to realize that all men
belong to the human race.
Jtclating a few nf his experi
ences in the Congo, he writes: "I
remember one day that my por
ters, who were very hungry, had
captured a huge tortoise. Unhap
pily one of them believed he was
descended from n tortoise. Ho re
fused to take part in the meal at
first, hut( finally gave In on
j account of the insistence of the
others ami his own appetite. After
the meal, however, he became so
terrified nt what he had riutio that
be was taken violently 111."
