Fences are torn down, gates left open to let cattle run astray, and other misdeeds performed with little or no consideration for private pri-vate property rights. In one case a farmer was put to a great deal of damage and expense because a gate was left open, allowing a number num-ber of cows and heifers to get away, as a result of which they were impounded and the owner forced to pay charges to get them out. Some of these thoughtless sportsmen seem to think that the farms and fields are maintained solely to furnish sport for them. One ill-mannered individual of this type engenders engend-ers more ill feeling against sportmen in general than a dozen hunters who observe the sportsmen's code, can overcome, Maybe our sportsmen's associations can do something about it by deputizing its members to report all infractions of the common rules of decency among the hunters. The state can't begin to hire enough game wardens tti watch every individual hunter. Unsung Heroes of Science N A "soldier who gives up his life to save thousands of his fellows frbm destruction is honored as a great hero, and his name is recorded on monuments and in the history books. A scientist who does precisely the same thing is apt to go altogether alto-gether unnoticed, save for the plaudits of his own associates. A short time ago Dr. Edison Souza Dantas, bacteriologist bacteriolo-gist at the Butantan Institute in Sao Paulo, Brazil, died of typhus fever. A week later the same disease killed Dr. Jose Lemos Monteiro, who had been Dr. Dantas' superior. The two scientists had been trying to find new methods of combating typhus, had been working with active typhus virus, and had finally become infected with the disease themselves. them-selves. Such deaths are not uncommon in the annals of medical science. They represent human heroism at its noblest heroism that is utterly selfless, that has no brass bands or waving flags to help it get started and that usually goes quite unrecorded. These two Brazilians were the sort of people who give one a new faith in the capabilities of the human race. Unheralded Sport If the vast throngs which gather to see heavyweight nrize fighters, college football teams and world series baseball base-ball games sometimes make you feel that the American people peo-ple are incurably frivolous and light-minded, consider the crowd that inundated that Indiana corn field the other day to sea the cornhusking championship of the nation decided. It is almost incredible, but true, that fully 100,000 people peo-ple came out to see a husky chap named Elmer Carlson crowned as the king of cornhuskers. This, be it noted, was accomplished without benefit of high-priced ballyhoo, press agents, sports writers, or radio puffs. It was spontaneous and deeply refreshing. For a champion cornhusker, after all, really amounts to something. He is a worker, and his championship means that he is a useful man to have around. If 100,000 people will turn out to watch and cheer him, there is hope for the republic yet.

Srawshay of the Marine Biological Laboratories of Plymouth, Plym-outh, England, has debunked the age-old story of Columbus, In which it was related that the night before Columbus discovered America Amer-ica he saw a light that appeared like a candle in the distance. The light raised and lowered, and then disappeared. Some said it was a light on shore; others that it was a light carried in an Indian canoe. Crawshay, a scientist to his fingertips, fin-gertips, says that it was certainly the luminous matter emited by a species of marine worm, a native of those waters. This phenomena phenom-ena has been observed many times, he says. And, since these worms swim on the surface only in the third quarter when Columbus saw the sight, Crawshap maintains it could not have been a shore light. The American meadowlark is not a lark at all, but a relative of the crow and bluejay. OFF.

At which point enters that part of the picture, not fully realized hitherto, namely that Mussolini proceeded to use the English as a drum-beat to lead his armies into Abyssinia. Prior to that time there had been no anti-English sentiment in the Italian press. Nor had there been any outburst against Italy in Great Britain. References in the London press were mild and casual. cas-ual. Captain Anthony Eden had even gone to bat for Mussolini during the negotiations with the Abyssinian delegate at Geneva. But suddenly, out of a clear sky, the Italian press flared forth against England. Only those familiar with the way the Fascist press operates can appreciate the significance of such a blast. Under this system, all editors are required to take their cue from the editorials of certain designated spokesmen. Usually this spokesman is Mussolini's own paper, Popolo d'ltalia. And even papers devoted exclusively ex-clusively to sports must reprint as their leading article certain policy editorials which appear in Popolo d'ltalia. Every paper in the country on that day will carry the same editorial, together with elaborations by individual editors. BRITISH ATROCITIES ; In launching the blast against Britain, however, the spokesman was Signor Virginia Gayda, of Giornale d'ltalia, partly because he is an English expert and partly I because anti-British castigations i in Mussolini's own paper would have brought the campaign too close to home. Giornale d'ltalia, therefore. LUE 1935 NEA Service, Inc. CHAPTER XII RUTH spent the day entertaining entertain-ing Penny. That is to say, she listened to Penny and she talked to Penny. She was well rewarded. , n tHa knnvlAiIrA flint X HCl O VT 0 " " - she had made the lonely, halt-blind halt-blind old woman happy, and there was the useful information she gleaned in regard to Elaine's family. Elaine's father, she learned from Penny's rambling tales, was an admirable young man who was killed In the World War. (Ruth thought, "At least Elaine Chalmers Chal-mers and I have that in common our brave fathers whom we can't remember.') Elaine's mother, moth-er, "Miss Qwen," eventually married mar-ried a second time. The man was an old suitor. Higate Deal, of (Vail Street fame. In speaking of Deal, Penny hinted dark things. "He's ruinin' your grandpa's railroad. Now that he's got hold of it they don't pay the stockholders around here like they used to, I hear reports re-ports " she stopped, as if afraid the had said too much-Ruth, much-Ruth, in turn, invented interesting inter-esting accounts of Elaine's life In the east. "I won a swimming event at Newport, Penny!" "At Saranac one time I was skiing and took in awful tumble. The young man who picked me up afterward proposed pro-posed to me, but mother and Mr. Deal didn't approve, so nothing came of it." "Maybe he didn't have enough money," remarked Penny with a Taint snort. Any mention of Higate Deal seemed to throw her Into a suppressed rage. RUTH led her to talk of "Grandfather "Grand-father Hunter," the old railroad rail-road king. "There was a man for youl" Penny declared. "Six-foot-two. White hair piled on his head like a corn shock. A nose like an eagle's beak. He spoiled his children your mother and Uncle Duncan somethin' awful, but he never spoiled himself. He let 'em go east to school and do as they pleased.

Protests by Sir Eric Drummond, British ambassador, were unheeded. unheed-ed. And it was only after this that the Brtiish press caught fire.

In act, Italian public opinion piece adouc you in me paper." "Penny," exclaimed Ruth in real panic, "if anything like that happens I'll leave town! I I hate publicity!" She made Penny take a solemn oath that she would tell no one of her presence. "I wouldn't anyway," Penny explained. "I keep to myself. People pry. There's lots of things I'd die before I'd tell "em!" She peered around her defiantly, as if holding the whole town at bay. "Yes, Penny," said Ruth soothingly, sooth-ingly, and patted her arm. "Would you mind if I'd go for a ride with John McNeill before supper? He asked me this morning." morn-ing." Penny relaxed. "Do go, Miss Elaine. It'll do you good. Only be sure to put on that warmer suit. It's turned chilly with the rain." Ruth and John McNeill were both 10 minors early for their appointment. Rrfth answered the door when he rang and said, "I meant to keep you waiting. This childish eagerness of mine is going to ruin you." "I'm easily spoiled," John replied re-plied as he helped her into the low-swung roadster which was parked before the porch. "For instance, that kiss precedent. prece-dent. Couldn't we do it once, say, every time we meet?" "Why should we?" Ruth asked in a cool, aloof voice. "Why?" repeated John McNeill slowly, starting his car and pondering pon-dering the question. "I was hoping hop-ing you'd just want to, Elaine. The way I do. My mistake " He swung the car out of the circling driveway onto the street, and immediately assumed a more impersonal attitude. "You said the country, I believe. Well, we're on the edge of town now. You're about to see something very choice in rustic scenery." Ruth said, "I suppose you'll tell me this is the garden spot of the world finest soil, finest crops, finest climate, finest everything." every-thing." (Her heart was saying, "Little fool, you chilled him by your priggishness ! Why shouldn't you kiss when you meet? Aren't you supposed to be lifelong friends?") TTE slowed the car to point out a rambling brick house with an avenue of trees leading to it. He said, "You recall that place, of course. The Phillipses still live there. Lucy's at Vassar now. I guess you see her sometimes in New York?" "It's funny," Ruth answered, "I never do. Has she changed much?" "Not as much as you have," John McNeill said. He offered her a cigaret which she took, hoping she was not too awkward at catching the light he offered her. Elaine, she felt, would smoke under the circumstances. circum-stances. He said, looking at her until the match burned his fingers, "You look lovely today. Mind my telling you?" "Mind? I like it. But we'll have to give credit to my clothes. I've always liked this suit. It's more flattering than the little rag I arrived in." "When I first saw you," John remarked, "you were the limpest little piece of wreckage I ever laid eyes on.

"At your very most impressive," impres-sive," he disagreed. "I've met several hundred perfectly turned out girls in my day, and promptly forgot 'em. I never before picked up one that looked like a wet dish-rag fallen off the line, and, five minutes later, saw her turn into a thing of beauty right under my nose." "Did you realize who I was?" Ruth asked curiously. He said. "Until Penny started calling you 'Miss Elaine' it never entered my head that you were anything but a little nobody trying try-ing to find a dry spot," ryiHE car sped through the rain like a smooth, purring animal that delighted to transport them. Darkness had fallen and the headlights head-lights outlined a road that was level and faintly curving: Ruth thought, "Heaven must be like this. I'd like to crystallize this hour and keep it always, shining like the headlights and the rain on the wet leaves. Only I can't. I think I want us to hit a tree and crack up and end it all before I stop being Elaine to him. Before Be-fore he finds me out for a cheat and a liar " But they didn't crack up. Joha was an excellent driver, and presently pres-ently he turned the car around and drove home. As they turned into the driveway he said, "I guess old Bertha's going to ask a few dozen questions about this ride." "Who?" asked Ruth blankly. "Bertha G i b b s," he snid. "Penny." "Oh!" laughed Ruth. "Imagine me not recognizing her name!" "She's a funny old creature," John remarked, not noticing. "Sometimes I think she's gone a little potty. In the last few years she's taken to dodging everybody. Even my mother." "People often seem Queer as they get old," Ruth offered. "It's usually just because their faculties facul-ties aren't keen and they don't keep up with the times. Whatever What-ever makes people think Penny's crazy?" "Well," answered John, "she's got the dam'dest habit of painting the front door a bright blue! She does it at night every few weeks, winter and summer. She lets the rest of the place go hang, but she never passes up that door. I ask you, honey, is that crazy or not?" "It's crazy," Ruth agreed. "But I'm not afraid of her, John. Other ways she's normal. She's 75 years old today, by the way." "Too old to be a menace, I guess," John said. "Still I worry about you being shut up in that old barn with her. You might as well be alone." They had reached the house and he was helping her across shimmering little pools of water to the steps of the dark porch. Ruth said softly, "Please keep on worrying about me. I don't need it but like it!" After she had gone inside, John McNeill stood for a time before the dark, still house, wondering why he felt as If the heart and breath ol him was locked up Inside In-side it.
