COTVMGMT IT VUTUM MWATU UOM n.i.n.i PIGS' THOUGHTS "Ah, yes," snld Porky Pig, "the beau-tiful springtime will be along before anyone knows It, grunt, grunt." "Squeal, squeal," said Miss Ham. "you speak as though It were going to come on two legs or four." "Grunt, grunt," said Porky Pig, "that ts because you don't understand me as you should." "Perhaps not as you'd like me to understand you," said Miss Hum. "Well, the fact remains, say what you will, that the beautiful springtime will be along before anyone knows It, grunt, grunt." "You said all that before," said Miss Hum. "Things can be said more than once," said Porky Pig, "and no harm Is done to anyone. "It is not doing anyone the slightest harm because I said that the beautiful springtime would be along before any-one knew It, grunt, grunt, more thun once." "Yes, and now you're saying it again," said Miss Ham. "But," she continued after a mo-ment, "why are you so Interested? Are you growing sentimental because It Is springtime? Do you feel ns though you were going to carry pigweed to some charming young Miss Pig and say to her: " 'Dear Miss Pig, let me provide for you forever. Nothing would give me greater Joy." "Oil, no, no, no," grunted Porky Pig. Td never say anything like that. Pin an old pig, set In my ways, and I'm not going to change. "What Is more, I could never say to any pig, young and beautiful though she might be, that nothing would give me greater Joy than to provide for her forever. "I couldn't say that for It wouldn't be the truth, and I do want to tell the truth. "I'm a truthful pig, I am, grunt, grunt." "Then why are you so Interested In the fact that before long the spring will be here?" asked Miss Ham. "Are you looking forward to seeing the buds burst Into bloom, as they talk about?" "Who talks about them bursting Into bloom?" asked Porky. "The buds them-selves don't, do they?" Po, people, said Miss Ham. "People talk that way. I've heard them when the pen has been without food and there has been nothing else to do. "And they've talked of the lovely springtime and of Its beauty and of the flowers appearing and the blos-soms and the green grass and all such things. "They have seemed quite happy about it. "I wasn't thinking of any of those things, grunt, grunt," said Torky Pig. "I was thinking of other things. My thoughts were of mud, of beautiful, Porky Pig Commenced. beautiful mud. Even though a pi Is not by nature poetical I cannot help reciting my poem atMwt It. "Of course I wouldn't have com-posed It had It not been that the win-ter shed gets tiresome around this time and there wasn't much to do or to eat and I thought of happy times ahead." "I suppose I cannot help but listen," Miss Ham said to herself, "unless I should be rude and go ofT, and there Isn't anywhere much to go In the winter shed. Thnt's the way with poets.

Collaborators Give Opinions on Own Play Disciple of ISossuet and Moliere, dramatic author and theologian a rare enough combination David n Brueys, who died 200 years ago, November 26, 1723. collaborated long and consistently with his friend. Pnlaprat, says a translation from Le Petit Parlslen of Paris, France. Together they wrote many plays, ,ome of them failures, others suc-cesses, among which was a little mas-terpiece called "Grondeur," which Is still played. Speaking of this play, Brueys once remarked : "The first act Is entirely nine. It Is excellent. The second ias been marred by a few scenes by Pnlaprat. It Is mediocre. The third is wholly Talaprat's. It Is very bad." Pnlaprat considered the play other-wise exactly otherwise. That Is how collaboration was un-derstood 200 years ago and how, with-out doubt, It la understood today. Kansas City Star. Radio Station Uses Mountains for Masts A wireless station using mountain peaks for antennae masts has recently been put Into service In Upper Ba-varia. The wires are supported by a strong cable and extend from one peak 5,100 feet high, a distance of about a mile and a half across coun-try to the top of a smaller bill of some 2,820 feet elevation. The sta-tion Is designed to communicate di-rectly with the Far Fast. Special ar-rangements were necessary for the fixing of the cable ends and to allow for Its stretching. The end of the cable Is fastened to a small carriage weighted with stones and running on rails. When the cuble is bent by snow or wind the' carriage Is pulled! " forward. When the stress ceases it rolls backward on Its sloping rail-, TIF FT-- THAT'S ALL road. Here Is Mr. Tlfft of New York, who la different from all other men In th United States.

Couldn't Understand Them. "The worst of these houses Is that the walls are so thin you can hear everything the people next door say. There's a foreign couple next door to us, and It's ulmost driving my wife crazy." "Violent, noisy people, eh?" "Yes, but It Isn't that. You see, they quarrel quite a lot, and she can't un-derstand a word they say." Quick to Learn. "Latin, hey?" audibly ruminated Uncle Pennywlse.
