These S -' 5 hardy birds have become firmly established in numerous sections of the eTSS"\r country, and sportsmen now want Y •. -i them stocked in localities where they have not yet been tried. Importations of these birds have been far below normal since the war. To make matters worse, the winter of 182B-29 was s® severe over most of Europe that many of the birds left over for seed stock were killed. One exporter from Czechoslovakia reports that in some sections of his country as many as eighty per cent of the partridges perished last winter; also that about thirty per cent of the hares and approximately forty per cent of the roe deer and stap died from the same cause. % As was expected, Importers reported a scarcity of Hungarian partridges last fall, and the prices were somewhat higher than formerly. It ig hoped that the exporters will so husband and supply that importations will soon again reach the usual level of ten- to fifteen thousand birds annually. Gene Simpson, superintendent of gaofte breeding for the state of Oregon and superintendent of the state game farm, established the ring- Tiecked pheasant as the leading upland game bird in the state of Oregon, and has also achieved greater success in experimental breeding of the Hungarian partridge than anyone else in the country. -The Hungarian bird, be says, can be raised in captivity, with a reasonable assurance of success, although it is more precarious than the breeding of pheasants, and requires different qiethods of handling the birds during the laying periods and in the laying fields. The wide range of territory in which the Hungarian partridge 'can be successfully propagated makes it an excellent game bird for almost any Izaak Walton Chapter or sportsman's organization to sponsor.

METROPOLITAN MOTOR COACH COMPANY llawnt P. Savage, General Manager $|.40 policeman's bat. he -was And all his. Certainly his; for they had obviously been thrown out. And they fit him perfectly. The boys who lived in the huge flat building were, he knew, rich boys. They had so many toys U was nothing unusual for them to throw them out. Or perhaps the servants threw out the toys, when they thought the rich boys were through with them. For as far back as he ^onld remember, which was about live years, Bobby had found playthings in the long chute' which led up past all the floors of the. fiat building, ending, at the bottom, in a huge bin which was each day emptied. His mother worked at night, scrubbing floors in an office building. His father worked during the afternoons, at some sort of work at which his mother frowned dubiously. Bobby did not quite understand It. It had something to do, he knew, with horses. He had heard his mother many times curse horses. "You work for a bookmaker all afternoon," his mother would point out bitterly, "and then lose all you make playing the horses yourself. Take my word for It, something will happen some day. I'm telling yon, something will happen some day." "Some day I'll strike it rich." he would tell her. "So quit your crabbing." It was nice with father home alone, and it was also nice with., mother home alone; but It was never pleasant when they were £>oth there. When mother went to work, at night, father was often in a playful mood. He'd say: "Come here, lad; tell me about how it went in school today. Yoo got to learn a lot, so you'll be worth something when you grow up--see? I aint no good. For why? Because I aint got no education." Something was badly the matter now though. Father had been home for a week. He hadnt gone to work in the afternoon. He walked the floor and read all the papers that mother brought in. They talked in low tones. Mother was frightened about something. Frightened as she had never been frightened before. And father was blue. Bluer than he had ever been before. Maybe he would cheer up and laugh when he saw the policeman's suit. Bobby put It en when he j reached the back of their building. Slid through the back .entryway, climbed the stairs. When toe entered, father was leaning upon a table, his head upon his arms. He looked up. Started. "Where'd yon get that stuff!" he demanded, angrily. Bobby was determined to keep up the Joke. "I've come to pinch yoi. Totfre pinched!" Bobby showed his star and walked up to take Ms father by the arm. "Come along now! Doot make no trouble." ' Suddenly a strange look came Into his father's face. He snatched np a piece of paper and wrote upon It hurriedly. Then straightened np. "All rifht, officer," he said, though he wasn't laughing, and his eyes looked terrible. Til coma along with you." "Are We going outside?" asked Bobby in amazement, as they headed for the door. "Sure--take me to the station." "Really to the police station down the block?" "Yep. That's where we're going, son." At the police station father talked to a big man a^ a desk. "Here's the officer that brought me in. He gets the reward, dont he?" The big man at the desk looked astonished. But finally be said: "Yeh, he gets the reward." "Fix It up, right away, tonight, or tomorrow, so's he gets it and 1*11 plead guilty and save the state a lot of money," father said. A real policeman took itybby home at last Mother was there. She was white of face, sitting at a table, reading a 8lip of paper. After the policeman had gone, she read the paper over and over aloud, as though she was trying to iearn it by heart: * "We were both right," she read, , "something happened at last, and I've struck it rich. Dse ten thousand reward money to bring the kid up like he oughta be brung up."

In brief, about George Fulcher, weight 294 pounds, twenty years a policeman in the palace of Westminister. Fulcher has retired. Fulcher not only was the most popular member of the parliamentary police staff, but also the most impressive. When he trod down the long medieval, dimly lighted corridors the whole British empire, with the possible exceptioif of Australia, knew abont it. He was particularly useful in the event of an occasional row within the sacred precincts of the house. All Fulcher had to do was to walk right into the dozen or so rioters and it was then only a question of the old irresistible force against whatever object stood In the way. Fulcher knew hundreds, thousands, even, of M. P.s, for it must be recalled that Fulcher was s fixture in the house of commons while M.

He shot at but missed his brother. The Eskimo tribe of which he was formerly a law abiding member kept him in close confinement through a long whiter, but in the spring, after be had twice escaped their vigilance, they pushed him through a hole and drowned him beneath the ice of the subarctic, Sergt. J. E. F. Wight In charge of the detachment at Lake Harbor, reported that last winter, accompanied hy Constable P. ttersch, he made a long patrol through a section of southern Baffin^ Island, where white men were unknown before the great war. He learned the story from the tribe In which the tragedy occurred. The report stated that Mako Gllak, a young man, became obsessed with the idea he was a purifier of his race. He told his relatives he had heard a voice from heaven telling him to kill alights people. He promptly proceeded to put his mission into operation. As Mako was obviously under a spell the Eskimos did not know what to do with him. The nearest post. Lake Harbor, was 500 miles away, and they had no means of making such s long Journey with a madman. They bound him up with thongs of sealskin and kept him under guard In Takes Much Water to Supply World'! Cities Have you any Idea how much water the .average city dweller uses daily? Take London, with Its gigantic population. Here the authorities have to supply an area of 558 square miles, and give the 7,000,000 people the water they need. Would you have imagined that each of these demands no less than 36 gallons every day? Yes, that is only the average supply per head per day. In the dry, hot weather the amount required for each person becomes 40 gallons, or more than a barrel of water per day for each man, woman, and child. London not the thirstiest town. Scotland consumes more water than England. In Glasgow and Edinburgh, for instance, the average consumption per head is not 36. but 37 gallons; and to Helensburgh, In Dumbartonshire, belongs the distinction of being the most thirsty town in the whole of the British Isles. Here they take 81.7 gallons per head. One reason given for Scotland's large consumption is that the water supply is much better than in England. nent lady M. P., all bad. All these things tend to make Fulcher yearn for his old Job. So much so that according to recent reports the former big man of the house has become a mere shadow of his former self and is said to weigh but a mere 280 pounds, having lost a full stone since he left the dignified portals of Westminster palace. rooms, and. in the words of a promt-. an jptoo all winter.

Considerable resistance can be developed Russia Plans System for Banking Salaries Moscow.--The wages of all workers and employees in the Soviet union may sooH be automatically deposited in savings banks to their accounts, to be drawn upon as needed. A. project to that tffect Is now being worked out by the state planning commission with every prospect of confirmation by the council of people's commissars. The scheme is intended to encourage thrift Instead of urging the populatlon, as heretofore, to deposit sur- /plus funds in the banks, the surplus will under the new arrangement remain in the banks automatically. Incidentally it will greatly simplify tfce process of paying out wages. Every trust, co-operative.etc., will deposit a ttjmp sum in the savings banks which will at regular intervals transfer the rfecessary -amounts to the accounts of wage earners. Millions of dew savings accounts thus opened will also give the Soviet government additional capital for Its enormous Industrial program. the following year members of the tribe decided that they could not keep him any longer. They told police that the men of the tribe were all worn out by this time In maintaining a sharp vigilance lest Mako should escape and continue his crazy pla'n. They summoned him before a meeting of the whole family one day artd told him he had to die. They gave him his choice of the manner of death. He could be shot, stabbed or drowned--whichever he preferred. But Mako did not wishito die, they told #»oIlce. However, ms end was decided upon, and a\hole was made In the ice. He was pushed through this and river currents carried hbn to Ms death. ' v '• ' Perhaps Here's Where Modernist Art Started Carlsbad. N.
