THE Uncle Wali’s American Legion Notes » In Philadelphia will take place April 7 under the auwpices of the Legion anj forty-five other patriot ic and civic organizations. The purpose of the meeting is the «x- pregsion of American principle^ as opposed to the recent manlfcsta- tion of foreign propoganda. it will be similar to the "All American Meeting for God and Country" held In New York City, March IS.

Two years ago a large and Intelli gent water-hog from South America, tired of the local British paenagerie which exploited him and his brethren, crept away, and took up bis abode In a pond at Manning’s heath, Sussex. There he lived a hermlt-like existence, swimming and diving, or scrambling along the fringe of the pond by way of exercise, and harming no man, un til quite recently a young foal disput ed his claim to the lake. The three- feet-long water-hog had the Igupu- dence to chase the foal, and suffered death at the hands of a gamekeeper for his misdemeanor. The hog's lffe in the Sussex pood Is regarded as all •he more strange because few of bls species have survived the English climate. Such creatures abound on the river banks in South America, and, while possessing the skin and bristles of an ordinary hedgehog, can swim and dive like a fish, often re maining under water for lengthy periods. They have long, curiously molded teeth, which enable them to grind to a pulp the vegetable matter that forms their sustenance, and al- ."»w It to pass down the very narrow passage of their throat. They bark and growl like dogs, and are alto gether unpleasant animals when roused. The Manning pond specimen was regarded by the villagers as quite harmless, however, and they deplored Its untimely end.—London Mall. $ Prosperity Sweeping Over The Nation it T N THE sylvan solitude«,” said the A wild man of the woods, “a mail doesn’t see any magazines and doesn’t I receive any bulletins from the health authorities, ao be enjoys a peace that la never known in th« busy haunts.
