Texas Supplies SulpHttr • Needs of United Stales Austin.--'Texas for two years has been the only part of the United State* producing snlphnr. As no imports of sulphur were made during 1981, the state's production supplied the entire country. The production, tHe United States Department of Commerce reports, was 2,128,930 long tone. That is a decrease of 17 per cent from the 2,698,981 toes of the preceding year. The supply of sulphur came from six mines. ]| Birds 6f a Feather * By JANE OSBORN * - Travelers Ride Train* Free in Fiji Islands Washington.--Train passengers ride without paying fares in the Fiji islands, the Commerce department has been informed.

Girls! You're Doomed After You Reach 27 San Francisco.--Girls who wait until they are past twenty-seven to marry are likely to remain, spinsters for the rest of their' lives. That is the theory of Cavendish Moxon, M. A., consulting psychologist, who has made a study of marriage here for the last ten years. "Between the ages of twentytwo and twenty-seven, a girl is at her best," he said. "She reaches the full bloom in physical and mental development She can choose her husband from the group of men between the ages of twenty-eight and thirty-three, the usual marrying period for men. "If 6be waits until after twenty -seven she is apt to find the man of her own age or a few years older already married. As a rule, younger men will not be Interested in her." Moxon said he believed the underlying cause for unhapplness in modern marriage is the tendency of the times for individualization. "Marriage Is easy when everybody has the same tastes, manners and beliefs," he said. "It becomes dangerous for the emancipated woman and individualized man of today.

(WNU Service) - '"INHERE was always something -*• cheerful about the atmosphere of O'Grady's store that stood on one of the corners where thegt^te highway crossed the eld Main street^of the village called North Hill. There were always plenty of people waiting for the bus, yeung men who bought cigarettes as an excuse to hang around an houi* or more, older men occasionally talking politics, girls sitting at the tables giggling over their ice cream. If you had been a resident of North Hill and had had a son you would have taken it for granted prob* hbly that he would occasionally Join the loiterers at O'Grady's. But,If you had had a daughter you would have passed on to her the unwritten law that girls didn't hang about O'Grady's. They -vent there for ice cream, or to buy a paper or candy or a quart of milk. But having made their purchase or eaten their ice cream they left Even boys who spent too much time at O'Grady's were looked upon as idlers and loafers. It was at O'Grady's that Lois granger first saw Malcolm Kent. She had gone to buy bird seed and Malcolm was with the loafers leaning against the tobacco' counter. Lois cast a glance in that direction just to see who was there and naturally enough noticed Kent. He was a stranger and looked so different from the usual O'Grady frequenter, she assumed that he was waiting for a bus. But when a day of so later she went to O'Grady's with her liti.e sister to get an ice cream cone and noticed again the tall, rather well-dressed young man loitering there beside the cigarette counter apparently feeling very much at home, she concluded that he bad got the O'Grady habit. "Who Is the good-looking stranger that's been hanging around O'Grady's lately?" Lois' uncle asked that evening at supper. Lois tried to look indifferent, while her older brother informed the family that the loafer was named Malcolm Kent and that he was a cousin or something of the Robinsons who had a big farm out beyond the creek. Tom further announced that he had met the young man, liked him and if there was no family objection, would bring him around to supper. "He can't be much account," observed Lois' mother, "if he's always hanging around O'Grady's." . "Still, just because he goes there Isn't any sign he's like the other O'Grady loafers," Lois said. "Birds of a feather flock together," pronounced her mother. "You're right," said the uncle. "Every time I've' been in there he was having the time of his life." / Still It was agreed to permit Tom to bring the young man to supper. And that was where Lois met him. Malcolm called again two nights later and when he was told that Tom was not at home he asked whether he might see Miss Lois. Yes, he had actually come to see her. He had an idea that Tom wouldn't be home. Almost every night at supper when Malcolm wasn't present Lois' family spent some time in discussing Mr. Kent. He had said something about having had some sort of a job on a newspaper. But certainly he couldn't be doing any news gathering out here at North Hill. And always Lois' mother would observe that birds of a feather flocked together.. It was a matter of common talk that he spent more than half hlfc waking hours at O'Grady's. Then, one Saturday afternoon, Malcolm and Lois went walking down country lanes in the mellow autumn sunshine, and Malcolm asked Lois to be his wife. "I think I'd like to, but I don't ftnow how my family will feel about It. *They know you aren't working, and you spend so much time at O'Grady's." "Just because I hang around O'Grady's doesn't mean that I am like other O'Grady habitues, does it?" Asked Malcolm with a mystifying smile. Only mother says that birds of a feather flock together." "Well, it happens that th^ reason why this bird flocks around O'Grady's Is because he is of an entirely different feather." Lois told him, In a rather hurt tone, that she hadn't the least idea what he was talking about. "It seems to me that If you really care enough about me to want to marry me, yon wouldn't hang out there all the time--that you'd be making plans to do something some time." So Malcolm explained, but he-made Lois promise not to tell the others until he left. He Tiad written a novel darned good novel( too, Malcolm frankly admitted. "But, you see, I've always been something of a bookworm, never spent enough time talk Ing with the kind of birds that stick around O'Grady's. And there are chapters in that book of mine that need the kind of talk you get at O'Grady's. Came out to see the Robinsons ope day and happened in at O'Grady's--found it was Just the sort i of thing I needed--the publishers have accepted the book--that Is, when I put in a bit more first-hand work on those chapters. And now I've got my regular job on my paper. Book reviewing, you know--I've been carrying m*SP usual while I've been away." And Lois was satisfied. MILLIONAIRE SHOW PLACES GOING OUT Trend Toward the "Model . Village" Is Gaining. Mew York.--"Millionaire palaces," those resplendant show places which used to. dot the suburban countryside in such profusion back in the old days of pre-depressioD prosperity, are going out of style, according to a survey report just put out by the American Institute of Architects. Experts who participated In, tto survey envision the time when sura, symbols of wealth and social stand*, ing will ornament the American landscape no more. Indeed the report suggests the possibility of the passing of the personal suburban dwelling of whatever size and cost In favor of the "model village" or standardized house. The report, prepared by Dr. Leicester B. Holland, chief of the division of fine arts of the Library of Congress and chairman of the committee on preservation of historic buildings of the American InstStete of Architects, is described as ah analysis, of the role of architecture in the present art consciousness of the social body, Waning interest Noted. The waning Interest of the wealthy In large private houses is explained by Doctor Holland as "largely due. to an Increase in mobility," and further to the fact that the wealthy, instead of concentrating on a single establishment, are now in the habit of maintaining two or more residences in different parts of the country or even abroad. "It Is to be expected that the Meet of mobility wlil extend constant^ down the scale of wealth," says the report, "with a consequent tendency to lessened interest in the personal" suburban dwelling. The model village or the standardized house may. In time replace it There will probably result an increase In economy, possibly an Increase in beauty, but also a decrease in esthetic responsiveness. For it is only the selective interest of the individual that makes for critical appreciation. "The city apartment building illustrates this reaction. Modern apartments are architecturally far mora interesting than the uniform rows of city houses they replace. But they have very little effect on the architectural consciousness of the commanlty. *.;'i Matter of Pride. "OS Hie other hand, business but16» Ings, such as stores, offices and theaters, which a century ago were of almost no architectural consequence, today have assumed prime importance. This change is due chiefly to the modern devotion to advertising In all commercial undertakings, though with this there enters an element of personal pride on the part of the merchant owners. "An early expression of Just this, combination ef motives was "P. T. Barnum's residence, Iranistan, at Bridgeport, Conn., designed by a London architect in fantastic Moorish style and built regardless of expense within unobstructed view of the main railroad line." The report shows that business buildings have assumed first importance in American architecture Government architecture Is "esthetically unimportant." College architecture tends toward "archaic theatricality," while churches, libraries and other cultural foundations will rank at the end of another century as "the outstanding architectural examples of the day," according to the report Seminole Indians Cling to Ancient Folk Songs J Washington.--A new kind of folk song has been recorded for posterity by Miss Frances Densmore, Smithsonian Institution ethnologist, who recently returned to Washington with more than 200 phonograph records of songs of the Seminole Indians of the Florida Everglades. Miss Densmore was told by the reticent Indian peoples that the Seminoles had no songs. After a fourmonth stay among them, however, she discovered and recorded much of an unique native music. The Seminole songs, she found, are used only at two big annual feasts-- the corn dance in the summer and the ceremony preceding the hunting season In the fall. Music also is used In treatment of the sick. ; Old Plainsman Plans Ride Steer 1,000 Miles Gerlng, Neb.--Tom Rivington believes that the modern generation needs to have its knowledge of the old West revived. This eighty-two-year-old veteran of the saddle and the range days proposes to help in the revival. He's planning to straddle a steer next year and ride the "critter" from Gering to Chicago--nearly 1,000 miles. Rivington, bowle^gged from riding bronchos, believes if he gets a steer with a reasonable amount of meat be won't be such bad riding. The old plainsman proposes to finance his steer ride to Chicago by sale of pamphlets en route. He plans to start early enough so as to give him time to sell his literature.
