When the Red Perch are frisking about at their tenderest, meatiest peak, the Birds Eye people catch them and race like a torpedo back to the docks of Boston. â€"~, Oceanâ€"freshness Sealed In ""*W“M we got there Miss Sinkler introâ€" duced us to our guide, Miss Cornell. First we went to sée the Tibetan exâ€" hibit on the second floor. She showed us a .Tibetan boat, which was round and made of yak skin.} She said it was the only kind theyi could use, because any other kind would not be very safe in a mounâ€" tain current. Next she showed us some costumes that the Tibetan people wore. In most of their clothes, there was much red because the red coloring> protected them from the cold. Then we saw some jewelry they hadâ€" worn. : Next we went to see some things from China. Some were vanity cases, costumes, and musical instruâ€" ments. ‘Wie saw a Chinese princesg‘ suit of armour. It didn‘t look as if it would protect him, but the guide said that plates of iron were put in between the layers of cloth and they protected him. The musical inâ€" struments fooked quesr because the bow was fastened to the strings of the <instrument. We saw Tibetan and Chinese writing, which looked quite different. Then she showed us the figures which are used in shadow iplays. The thing that surprised us It was about a little boy from Amerâ€" ica, visiting Holland. The uncle told them ~a& story. They then gave scenes showing the story. It was Hans holding his finger in a hole in the dike. They gave two scenes of a Dutch house. They had made their fireplace, and dishes out of paper plates. They painted Dutch scenes on them. They had also made their own scenery. There was one scene in which girls and boys did Dutch dances and sang. I thought the last scene was the best. The children wore roller skates instead of ice skates, and skated in formation on the stage. They then had a snowball fight. The balils were made of cotton, but they looked like snow. The third grades finished their study of Holland by an assembly. We are making a streamlined train. It is the Hiawatha, It runs‘ from Chicago to Minneapolis. It} leaves Chicago at one pm. and reâ€" turns to Chicago at sevenâ€"thirty p. m. ‘The Hiawatha has a steam enâ€" gine. 1t goes one hundred. miles an hour. ‘The fuel car carries 4,000 galâ€" lons of fuel wil, and 18,000 gallons of water, The coach is very comâ€" fortable. ‘The observation car has a radio and comfortable chairs. Some streamlined trains carry a mail car. The mail car carries mail to each town every day. Some have a pullman. The peoplesit in the pullman in the daytime and sleep in | it at night.

When Appearance of Rare, Ocear Red Perch Looks Fishy to Singer with Baritoneâ€"y Voice Chicago, April 29:â€"Jimmie Egan, who eroons on the side, met up with a sight so strange last night he still won‘t believe it.
