; CONDOR MIGHT!ESI OF CARRION BIRDS i Hat Courmandizing Power That Is Remarkable. I ( Thia greatest of uneleau birds, the cutidur. has beeu singularly unfurluuute in the hands of the curious mid scieiitinc. Mure than titty years huve elapsed aliiee the first specimen 1 reached Europe; yet today the esugI geruted stories of l)s size and strength , are repeated in many of our textbooks, I and the very latest ornitholuglcal work , I leaves us lu doubt as to. its relation i to the other vultures. >o uhe credits the assertion of the old geographer, Marco I’ulo, that the condor cuu lift uu elephant from the ground high enough to kill it by the fall, nor the Story of the traveler, so late as 1830, who declared that a condor of moderate size, Just killed, was lying before r him, u single quill feather of which was 20 good Inches long, says u w riter | in the Wide World Magazine. Yet the i statement continues to be published that the ordinary expanse of u fullgrown specimen is from twelve to twenty feet, wiiereus it is very doubtful if it ever exceeds or even equals twelve feet. A full grown male from the most celebrated locality on the Andes, now in Vassar college, lias a stretch of nine feet. Humboldt never found one to measure over nine feet; | und the hugest specimen seen by Darwin was eight and a half feet from 1 tip to tip. Au old male in the zoological gardens of London measures eleven feet. Von Tschudl says he found one with a spread of fourteen feet two inches, but he invalidates bis testimony by the subsequent statement that the full-grown condor ineas- , ures from twelve to thirteen feet. The ordinary habitat of the royal condor is between the altitudes of 10,oou and Ib.OOU feet. The largest seem to make their home around the volcano of Cayambi, which stands exactly on the equator. In the rainy season they frequently descend to the coast, where they may be seen roosting in trees. On the mountains they | very' rarely perch (for which their feet are poorly fitted), but stand on rocks. They are most commonly seen around vertical cliffs, where their i nests are, and where cattle are most likely to full. Great numbers frequent Antlsuna, where there is a great cat- 1 tie estate. Flocks are never seen ex- I cept around a large carcass. It is often seen singly soaring at a great height In vast circles. Its flight is slow and majestic. Its head is always ■ in motion as if In search of /ood below. Its mouth is kept open and its i tail spread. To rise from the ground | it must needs run for some distance; j then it flaps its wings three or four | times and ascends at a low angle till it reaches a considerable elevation, when it seems to make a few leisurely strokes, as if to ease its wings. i after which it literally sails upon the j 1 air. In walking the wings trail along the ' ground and the head takes a crouching position. It has a very awkward, almost painful, gait. From its inability to rise without running a narrow pen is sufficient to imprison it. Though a Carrion bird, it breathes the purest air, spending most of its time soaring : three miles above the sea. Humboldt saw one flying over Chimborazo. We have seen them sailing at least a thousand feet above the crater of i’ichincha. Its gourmandlzlng pewer has hardly been overstated. We have known a single condor, not of the largest size, to make away in one week with a ■ calf, a sheep and a deg. it prefers ' carrion, but will sometimes attack live sheep, deer, dogs, etc. The eyes and tongues are the favorite parts, and first devoured; next, the intestines. We never heard of one authenticated case of its carrying off children, nor of its attacking adults, except In defense of its eggs. Von Tschudi says< it cannot carry when flying a weight over ten pounds. Tn captivity it will eat anything, except pork and cooked meat. When full fed it is exceedingly stupid aflti can be caught by the hand; I but at other time? it is a match for , the stoutest man. It passes the greatest part of the day sleeping, more often searching for prey In morning and evening than at noon —yery likely because objects are more distinctly seen. It is seldom shot (though it is not Invulnerable, as once thought), but Is generally trapped or lassoed. Crosi-Words : Here Is the story of a man, a girl, and a cross-word puzzle. They sat opposite and alone In the train. His brows were deep-knit in thought. “Blank, blank, P, blank, blank, blank, blank!” he said. “Surely you’re not swearing?” she asked. “No," he replied. “I want ‘to marry.’ ” “Then why not ’espouse’?” she cried. “Splendid!” he shouted. “The very thing!” In the breach-of-promise action which followed the judge awarded her a farthing damages, merely remarking: j "What is a cross word puzzle?" Here’s Innovation Joseph Sparrow, retired jeweler ot San Francisco, Cal., brought suit j against his wife asking separate : maintenance and S3OO a month. He asserts cruelty and says his wife has a large income from property left het by a former husband. This is the first suit In the state of the kind since the legislature at the last session enacted n law enabling a man, as well as a .roman, to sue for separate main- j .euanee.

WHAT DOES MODERN GIRL REALLY WANT? I Question One of Them , f inds Hard to Answer. When you analyze the question of wi.ut modern girls really want, it Is ne< < -- try to disabuse the mind of the delightfully vugue, magazine cover, tennis playing, matinee going creature a* u true coliceptluu of the modem girl. in a general way, the modern girl ' belongs to two recognized social classes—tile middle classes —and how many subdivisions are here!—ami tl>e class which la generally known us the 1 “upper.” in the middle class you will find that the vaguest and most doubtful feminine member of the family Ims been taught the art of shorthand and typeI writing, in the firm conviction thut ' sooner or later She will become an "ini valuable asset to the firm” and find I romance a the course of her wofk. , What she wants is either to be taught to spell and write her own language, or to clear the course for the profession;! I girl, "A Most Modern Girl" writes, in the Washington Post. In the next social subsection there is the girl who works spasmodically—in every sense of the word—and whose family seems to spend its time imploring her to "give It up” and “stay at ; home and help mother." Whether she | realizes ft or not, the only possible solution of her problem is matrimony, with a strong accent on the last syllable in view of her general inability to cope with anything for long. Then there Is the real professional girl, by which Is meant the girl who works because she must, and who works thoroughly because slit* enjoys it. ami because she means to get there. What does she want? Certainly she smokes too much; she “gads about” too much; spends too much, flirts too much. But why not? Hers Is the doubtful privilege of being an important man’s right hand for years, ami of receiving the “suck” when lie dies. The humiliating classification of “surplus” Is applied to those of her number who are not fortunate enough to find a man to marry them. . . . She does not know what she wants —so she eats, works anil is merry. The daughters of the super tax pay--1 ers present a still more difficult prohi lent. All of them dance, some dope, I some get married and unmarried with I amazing facility; many have no family ’ life. . . . But they all have a want. I It seems strange with unlimited money and pleasure this should be so. I'er- | haps what they want is work ! | Analysis Is the dangerous fashion ot . the age, ami self-analysts the most i vicious form at that. Calm introspec- ■ tlon at times may be good for the soul, but not that continual probing for i what is wanted. Perhaps, afier all, what the modern girl wants is not to be reminded that I she wants anything. — Fooled Customs Officers The customs cordon between northern and southern Ireland is, of course, a great nuisance to people whose market town lies across the border, and the indignation of those making acquaintance with Hie law’s vagaries for the first time sometimes leads to amusing Incidents. The other day a market wdman was taking home In her basket a good, school "family” cake. On finding that the duty would amount to as much as the price of the cake Itself, she declined to pay. "Refuse ye may,” said the official, laying hands on the not uninviting looking confection, “but we confiscate the cake.” “Thut ye'll not,” said she. and snatching the cuke out of his hands she retired across the border and, regardless of possible future consequences, proceeded under the eyes of the disappointed official to consume it to.the last crumb. Unsinkable Ships An engineer named Llebetrau, In the Austrian province of Fararlberg, claims to have invented an apparatus which can be installed in ships to make them unsinkable. The Invention consists of a device whereby the water which has entered through a leak is forced back again and the ship’s buoyancy maintained. Experiments with a 12-foot boat ' were carried out on Lake Boden. The boat In which the apparatus was Installed was loaded with (JOO pounds of stone and then sunk in 60 feet of water by opening n valve. The boat later rose to the surface, and remained floating. The engineer states that his invention cun be installed in liners and controlled from the bridge. Beauty Clay So-called beauty clays are not composed of real clay. Most of the beauty clays on the market consist of fuller's earth with some tincture ot benzoin. Fuller’s earth is a soft earthy material resembling clay but not plastic. It oc curs in nature as an impure hydrous aluminum silicate. Fuller’s earth is ' also widely used to remove stains from such substances as cloth, wool and wallpaper. It is also used as H filter to clarify oils.—Exchange. Methodists Increasing In the United States there are 4.711,994 persons who have established active relations with the Methodist church through tnemberslilp. this figure showing an Increase of 51,450 during 1924. This gain takes into consideration the withdrawals through death, removals or transfers to other churches : of about 35.W1. There are about 28,- ' UUO members in foreign areas.

Indiana Wheat Growers’ Association Is Growing Indiana|M>lis .March 17— Mi in be rsliip in the Indiana Wheat Growers' Association, which reached a net total last year of f,.572, is expected to pass the 10,000 mark iwthin the next ten days, according to an announcement the first of this week. While the association had only one county last year with a memliorsltip of 300, ten counties now boast that number or more. These counties are in; (lie order of their standing. Dubois, Wayne. Knox. Parke. Vigo, Rusli I I'linton, Gibson. Johnson and Ripley. Several others are close to the 300 mark and are expected to go over nt an early date. The annual election of directors . of the association is now under way. Voting is being done by mail and the heavy return of ballots from each : district indicates keen interest in the operation of the wheat pool. New slorago facilities arc being erected by elera’or interests and a numlter of country mills also are arranging to handle pooled wheat under the , conditions imtiosi-<l by Hie U. S. ware , house act. The association lias in- ; vestigated very carefully a number 1 of loading devices for use at points where there are no elevators or where elevators refuse to handle pooled wheat. The purchasing department of the i , Indiana Farm Bureau will handle I one of the e devices, as state agent, i and several of these machines al reaily have lien placed. The Wheat Growers’ Association lias been re-incorporated under the new Indiana cooperative marketing . 'aw. being the first association to ■ take advantage of this new statute.
