Recent magazine articles, books, and pictures have Inspired anyone and every one 'vttio'ete^ owned or had any dealings with an animal to attempt to turn such experiences into money. Publishers are offered cat, dog, pig, cow, fox, wolf, and bear stories of all descriptions. They get pretty used to them, but now and then a fellow arrives with something new. Such a fellow showed up at a magazine offiee the other day. He said he wished to dispose of a story. It was not yet written. Ills idea, in fact, was that the editor should write the story and they would then" split the receipts. Pressed for further details, he admitted that he had the only pack' of hounds in the world which could drive a tiger into a corner and keep him there. There were twenty-eight of the dogs. "To show you I am on the level," said the man, "you can pick your own t^ger. Get any tiger you like. I'll bring my "dogsu If they don't chase your tiger into a corner and keep hlui there, I don't /tfant a Qentj, ,Awl, if the tiger should the loss.*' ; - '-V ' ••'ivWelCnothing-.'.'c'dnid'.be' fairer than that. There was the editor with ah office which had four corners, and there was the man'with-the dogs. All that was needed was a tiger. But the story hasn't been written yet. Magazines haven't- much enterprise. * • '• i" - . Certainly, when I put on a tin and went to France a few years ago, I had no idea that I would some day have a warm friendly feeling for two sons of the crowh prince of Germany. But that is just how any of you would feel concerning these youngsters. If you happened to be around with them. niis Ferdinand and Frederick Wil- 1 ianv-LLalii^rtaottern -are two of the (most likable young visitors the shores of the United States\iave seen in a long time. Prince Frederick likes tor play golf, tennis, and tl^ piano, but most of all he likes to run, throw the Javelin, swim, and sail. Prince Louis, who has been working in the * Ford factory jn Detroit, where the workmen call him by his first , name, plays the violin and likes to drive an automobile and to fly. Whenever he gets a bit of time off, he rents a plane and goes for a ride over the highway of the clouds. Frederick is a blond, who looks a bit like his cousin, the prince of Wales, only he is larger and huskier. Louis is a dark, studious looking young man, with a courteous, but iihpulsive manner and an interest in everything around him. He is a good mixer, who always will make his way In any company he cares to find. • • • Howard * Allen Trafton, the poster artist, had a job decorating a smoking room on a steamship. He used to go down and work while the boat was In port. Leaving late one night, he carried his wet brushes and paints in a burlap bag. A customs man stopped him; demanded to know what he was lugging. Fie said it was paint. "Nose paint, I guess," said the officer. "Lemme feel in there." "Okay with-me," said Mr. Trafton. The customs man must have spent quite a while trying to get thp.^olorg off his hand and coat sleeve, YOUNG REPUBLICAN# The monthly meeting* of the Young Republican club will be held in Buch't hall, under Walsh's Drug Store, on Thursday evening, Dec. 1.

STAR CLUB MEETS The Eastern Star card club met Friday afternoon in the hall with the prize in bridge going , to Mzs. Et £• Bassett. Did I ever tell you the story Billy McCarney told nie'of a fighter and an actor? McCarney was sitting In his office wondering how he was going to get a sparring partner for a big fellow he was managing, when he was told some one wanted to see him. The man was tall and husky. He said he was one of the Romanos, doing a strong man act in vaudeville. He liked to box. Could McCarney get someone to spar with him? McCarney surely could. There was a big farmer sitting In his office who might be induced to put on the gloves. The thing to do was to sock him good and hard, so he wouldn't get fresh and then he would be a good punching bag. The actor said that was fine. So Billy McCarney went back and told the fighter he had found him a sparring partner. The fellow had been a ham actor. The thing to do was to sock him right away and show him his place. The men squared away and both led with terrific rights; both landed. It was a good bout. Billy McCarney was much pleased. The boxer was Jess Wlllard; the actor was Victor Mc- Laglen. ' f e. mt.
