> COSTES SEEKS - NEW ROUTE Paris.— (U.R) — Dieudoune Costes. who has just completed a flight -. f 22,000 miles between here and ) Equatorial Africa, declared that the i purpose of his flight was to estab--1 lish a. practical route linking North ) Africa with Equatorial Africa over the desertr "The »>ute chosen,” said Costes. "is the Tunis. Bilma. Lake Tchad route, which dips 1.500 kilometers from the |£eggan. Niamey, latke Tchad route.” Costes declared he had collected valuable information on the trip . and was convinced that the most important feature of the future air .'route over the desert was to link it I with a permanently established I system of beacons a'ong the land ) route of Lake Tchad. "In the future,” Costes continued, ■! "It will be necessary and certainly I more practical that a small plane E precede the automobile pioneers in their course along the desert, in .order to show them the route which has been chosen by air. As soon as these two routes are known . and established, the joining of the two routes must be made permanent by a system of signals and re- ( lief stations. The perils of desert ; flying, or desert autoing, will disappear as soon as these two works ’ ■ are accomplished.” . Costes is head of the mission icharged with establishing this di- ■ n et air route and of synchronizing the road route for automobiles, which will mark the modern caravan route. o BEAVERS OFFER STATE PROBLEM Harrisburg. Pa.—(U.R)—The State [of Pennsylvania is in the position jof the central figure of "Pigs Is ; Pigs’’ in regard to beaver within its territory. I In 1917, when beaver almost wore I extinct in the state, two were Imported from Wisconsin, and three years later 20 wen- brought in from Canada. Today the beiver population numbers 4,890 and they live in 988 idams of their own construction, ac- < r.rding tc the state game commission. Complaints of damage caused by beavers are flooding the commission offices. These complaints ini elude damage to valuable trees on private property; burrowing under ifields; flooding private lands and (important highways; retarding op■‘eration of mi.ls; and use of manJniade reservoirs. In 1931, these complaints led to the destruction of 178 beaver dams and the removal to other places of 220 animals. So far in 1932, trappers working for the commission [have caught 67 animals.

i CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN She moved into the apartment that Maxine had fallen heir to. Got permission to have a small upright ‘ piano. It was the only thing they ever really quarreled over. “A grand would have given us a little class! sut that thing—ugh!” 1 “I know, it isn’t very beautiful. But I’ve got to live cheaply. You t don’t know how poor I am. The only clothes I have are the grand evening things Madame Nahlman I gave me, and I can’t wear them on I the street.” Maxine grinned. “Oh, something will turn up!” Back home in Woodlake, if she had read about a girl coming to New York, and falling into tTie sort of luck .-.he had had, she wouldn’t have believed it. You either had luck, or you didn’t. Maxine, who practically lived by her wits, being, strangely enough, a technically good girl, took everything, and gave nothing but her personality. She and her small circle were the sort whom traveling salesmen from Columbus and all points west invariably meet and take to dinner, a show, and roof cabaret afterward. The number of blind dates that Maxine acquired was so~nething that never failed to astound Lily Lou, who steadfastly refused to accompany her. “Why not? Free meal, good sh<rw—l make ’em get the best scats, and pick the shows! Dance I « "bit afterward if they can dance. I eat some more, and then leave 'em. ) Not so bad —for a plain looking • girl ? And you—with your 100k5....” I Lily Lou laughed. “No, 1 couldn’t. I I just couldn’t do it. I—l don’t know—Early bringing up, I guess.” The next few months would be ghastly. Even doing all her own laundry, and all the cleaning in the

apartment, and cutting her food down to almost nothing, she didn’t see how she’d manage. Gwin was staying at his Long Island home during the summer months, and only came in one day a week to teach. Lily Lou hesitated when he made out her first weekly check. “I can't take a week's pay for a day's work,” she said dejectedly. “You must live. How much are •you paying for the baby’s board?” “Fifty.” • “And your rent?” “There’s none. The apartment belonged to a girl who—who married or something, and went to Europe, and the lease isn't up until November, so Maxine and I— ’* “I see.” Gwin wiped away a i smile. “So there’s just the food, and one doesn’t want to eat much this ' hot weather. I spend quite a lot on carfare though—to get out to Jamaica Park to see the bubchen, but I’m hoping to get church work—” He w’heeled on her sharply. “I won’t coach you if you force your ■ voice!” “I won’t force it. I’ll be careful.” "Careful, eh! I’ve told you what happens to coloraturas who break ' down!” “But Gwin, I'll be careful. It isn’t as though I were just beginning. I know how to keep my voice forward now—” “All right, Choose between the church and that Metropolitan chorus idea you and Tony were I raving about.” “Choose between them! Why, | one’s a thing to do for pay, and ' I one's a chance to break in—” “Exactly!” > I “But even you said I had to eat!” She went home, more shaken than she had been since the oid i days when she first faced the bubi chen’s coming. If she could only i have stayed with Nahlman until | summer was over .. . But no use to cry over spilt milk.' Well, she’d get a job. She thought and Mis.

of the things she could do. Waitress. Telephone operator. Pianist. But if she took a regular job she couldn’t keep on with Gwin—nobody would let her off a day a week. And alter his regular classes started she could conscientiously take she money. Twenty-five dollars a week and free lessons, with lessons costing twenty dollars the half hour . . . Oh. how did anyone ever do it? How did girls ever become opera singers? And even if you had the voice, and the background, and the languages, and the dramatic school training, the dancing, the fencing and all the rest of it, what ever in the world did you do for money to live on? She’d have to have money for the bubchen’s bonrd. Tony . . . but she couldn’t ask him for a loan, he had too many back debts—it wouldn’t be right. . . . There was no one else. Maybe she could write home. Perhaps they could advance her something, and then when Uncle Eph's estate was settled. . . B -sides, this would be the last time she’d have to ask. Perhaps they cculd sprre her just a few dollars, say for two months, until Gwin started full time classes again. . . . She got un and wrote out the message, night letter. The answer was waiting for her at noon the next day: “Sorry to have to tell you impossible help you now Did not want to alarm you. but mother has had the flu and now pneumonia. Asks for you constantly. Wish you cculd come, but no use to consider it if you are broke. Will let you know of any danger. MAY.” And right an the heels of that: “End very near. If you can borrow from' Madame !snhlTr.zn and come, suggc .it you do so, for mother asks for you constantly. All the rest of family together..

She got the last message on the i train. Read it over and over, trying to realize what it would be like without mother. Said it over and over i to herself . .■. “Mother, dead.

SOLO PIANIST WALKS STREETS AND PRACTICES Star of Boston Symphony Gives Self Mental Rehearsals By< Martin Kane, UP Staff Correspondent. Boston, May 26. —(U.R) A pianist, who practices bis art while walk ing along the street, is Jesus Maria Sanroma. Sa aroma, who holds the unique position of solo pianist to the Boston Symphony Orchestra, a post created especially for him by Conductor Serge Kouasevitzky. does much of his practising mentally—away from the piano. “Often,” he says, “I take a walk and go through a composition. This is a great to memorizing. 1 can’t explain how 1 do it, for 1 don't see my fingers strike the notes, but in my mind I seem to be playing the music. Stuck on Chopin “I remember once when I was to | p'ay a Chopin piece and didn’t feel j very sure of it. As I walked along {the street I went through the I whole business in my mind. At j one p ace I got stuck and couldn't ; get out of the difficulty. As soon 'as I turned to that part, saw what was wrong, and it never bothered me again.” Sanroma was born in Porto Rico 2.8 years ago. At nine he had shown such remarkable gifts for the piano that he was hailed as a boy prodigy and toured the island In concerts. Governor Yager of Porto Rico became interested and the re-

WAT.IS Jpf The Compost Pile _____ _ IM Va V* 1 A*' & - ilw /FT . i ' ar ( —’ r Place the Compost Pile in a corner of the Yard and Shield , With Shrubs.

Humus is important because it adds greatly to the water-holding capacity of sandy soils and makes clay soils more workable. About the average home there is sufficient plant material such as loaves and grass clippings to make a compost pile which would supply all of the humus that can be used advantageously about the home. Piece the compost pile in a secluded corner. Shrubs may be used to shield it from view. The plant material to be decomposed should be put down in layers, with f thin layers of soil between. A few handfuls of lime and complete plantfood should be sprinkled in the plant material as it is put on the piles. A small quantity of decayed material or manure 1 scattered through the pile will 1 hasten decay. The compost pile should uot be allowed to dry out. ’ Allow the composted material to ' , decompose quite thoroughly before i using it. Such material can best
