AFRICANS HAVE BABEL OFUINGO Jabber Like Monkeys, Grunt and Even ‘Click’. MAFEKING, South Africa, March 6. — It takes an accomplished linguist to keep in touch with all the languages in South Africa. i Besides English, German, French, Portuguese and Dutch, the latter being a variation of the Holland tongue and called "Cape Dutch,” there Is a regular ‘Babel of native languages and dialects. To make it difficult for the traveler, custom has cluttered South African English with all sorts of peculiar words and expressions from other languages. TWO PRINCIPAL NATIVE LANGUAGES. Few know how many native languages and dialects exist. However, they appear to fall into two sections, the Bantu and the llottentot-Bushman. Languages of Bantu origin are commonest and most widely used . They include Kaffir (or Xosa), spoken In the eastern portion of the Capo province; Zulu, used throughout Natal, the east portion of Transvaal, Matabeleland and Portuguese East Africa-; Karanga (or Chino Chiswini), the language of Mashonaland; Sechnana, spoken in Bechuaualand and Transvaal, and Sesuto, used In Basutoland. CLICKS BORROWED FROM HOTTENTOTS. Some of the southern dialects of Bantu languages have borrowed a varying number of clicks from the Hottentots and Bushmen. They nro expressed In writing by “e, q and x.” but can seldom be acquired by an adult white man. The Hottentot language, once widely used in the west portion of Cape province until Dutch Influence rather overwhelmed It, abounds in clicks. But tho Bushman language—now rarely heard because Bushmen are vanishing even faster than Hottentots—is more than a collection of clicks ihodified by grunts, which bear a resemblance to the different cries' of the baboon. LONELIEST SPOT 9 IN HEART OF N. Y. ‘White Wav’ District Friendless, Is Claim. NEW TORK. March 6—Regarding Time* Square as "the loneliest spot in the world.” the Interehureh world movement plans to establish a church homo center which will compare with theaters and motion picture houses. “In one hundred city blocks between Twenty-eighth street and Fotty-eighth street and between Park and Eighth av". nues there aro forty five theaters and ten motion picture houses, but only seventeen churches and two synagogues,” was a statement made at Interchurch headquarters. "People do not know each other. They are indescribably lonely To meet this situation it Is planned to establish a great home center, a church ho>ue or club for traveler* and visitors." Ends Life After Spree on Bay Rum WILMINGTON. Del., March 6 After s spree on bay rum, milk and pickles, Peter Grant, 41 years old, a leather worker, was found asphyxiated in his home. His wife said she found the window tightly closed and a rug placed In front of one of the doors. She said he bad been drlnklngly heavily for several days. "lie had not been sober since last Saturday." said Mrs. Grant, "lie began drinking bay rum at that time and drank three quarts. When 1 left him he wes rather wild. "He got up and drank n quart of milk and ate a dish of cucumber pickles l left on the table, and 1 think he went to the gas stove to make himself a cup of coffee.

Is It safe to buy a property on a laud contract? I have been offered a house and lot upon payment of SIOO per month on a land contract, the same to include principal and interest. I would like to know buying property in this manner 1b common practice and whether it is safe? T. P. M. Acquiring real_estate in this manner is customary, particularly in regard to vacant lots.

ON WITH DANCE AT $176,600 YEAR Pennsylvania Students Don’t Care for Costs These Days. PHILADELPHIA, March 6.—Eighteen years of more or less valuable time and approximately $178,000 of father's hard earned money are annually fox trotted, one stepped, or waltzed into oblivion by University of Pennsylvania students, according to undergraduates who have carefully compiled the statistics. In making public their findings the statistical students wish it known, also, that they have considered only the time and funds in the waltz fox trot, and one step. No attempt has been made to account for the more Bohemian sonls who occasionally enjoy "shimmying” in the downtown cases. These campus statisticians have complied their data with thoroughness, and their estimates aro based, they say, on careful Investigation of present conditions at the university. Her# la the way it works out: The university records, the statisticians state, show a registration of more than Ifi.OOO students. Os the number registered at least 40 per cent, or 4,000 student- lay claim to at least average abl!tty-as dancers. You will note that beginners, shadow dancers and esthetic dancers, Russian. French and Spanish ire not considered. To be considered” an average dancer nowadays, according to the atatlsticlans, one must attend at lcasfs one dance a month. One monthly dance at least must be Indulged In, not only because of social demands but also in order that he may retain at least a working knowledge of the latest steps and the most Improved method of clinching with Sadie Vamp, or whoever happen* to be the ■•andhiato for the partnership. Now. continue the probers, with undeniable emphasis, here are 4.000 average dancers going to one dance a month. Each dance consumes five hours. Multiply the five hour* by 4,000 students ind you can easily seo that 20.000 hours are wasted monthly In Indulgence in the terpsichorean art, and in eight months, the length of the school year, the time wasted amounts to 160,000 hours, or mere than eighteen years. So much for the time. Now for the e xpen*e. The ordinary dance given at the university cost* at least $3 per couplo for the mere privilege of dancing alone. It is asserted. But rati the fragile Sadie walk to a dance and then walk home again? Decidedly not. Sadie must have a taxi. There goes another buck. And flowers for Sadie? Sure! Another one of father'* Iron men squandered. if the flowers are figured slightly below cost and the taxi rate Is entirely too low, the statisticians stand ready to apologize. No offense was meant.

REAL ESTATE GOSSIP By REALTOR "AL” EVANS Ton will notice that the editor of this Scandal Oolyum Is now a brother Realtor. Wonder If that will cause any of the brethren to loosen up with this said scandal? Speaking about scandal, most of you fellows sure have Been tight with it. What Is the matter, has the other fellow rot something on you? Tnat doesn’t make any difference; It will come out In time, anyway. A man walked Into one of the Income tax rooms In the postoflice yesterday afternoon and said to the tax expert; "Would like tp have one of your Illustrious personages give me some help ou my report.” The tax man saidt "Ton will find that man In thte fourth room down the hall." After the would-be flatterer left the room the tax man said: "These ollytongued salesmen can t pull that slick stuff and get away with It when dealing with the government. "I know several men who, when seeking information, hand out the soft stuff, but pt other times they dou’t know you." Poor Temp. Every time he changes boarding houses be gets sick. At present be Is not only sick physically, but be Is sick of his boarding bouse. _ No one need be afraid to call on W. D. Pratt. He won’t explode according to hts nickname, "Dud.” Here is hoping that the members of the Mutt and Jeff firm don’t hold on to the methods of selling real esta'.e that they learned down In Florida. Mr. Gates spoke of these tricks in his card to Temp. They don't have a real estate board In Florida. Anyway, little Unarlle admitted that something had to be done with the street car situation here. If It takes him as long to make up his mind to do that thing as It did to make up his mind that something was necessary he will be out of office before It comes times to set on that something. Why Is It that these Realtors stay away from our weekly luncheons? They should realize that they are doing an Injustice to themselves when they miss a speaker like the one we had this week. Another thing, the week you stay away Is tbe week that an unusually good speaker will be on hand. The Indianapolis Real Estate Board adopted the above *s the Realtors emblem. It will be used on their letterheads and in the proposed educational advertising campaign to- be conducted In the local newspapers by the real" estate board., This emblem will also be used In the individual advertisements of the board members. What "Realtor" and the emblem mean in fair dealing business ethics will be one of the Important point* to be eniphaslxed In the proposed publicity,, camuaign.

Tailors Eat Well Despite H. C. of L. NEW YORK, March 6.- Expressions of opinions of members of the Manhattan Merchant Tailors’ association attending the eighth annual banquet and reception of the organization at the Hotel Aator, Indicated that the tailor* have abandoned the hope of deducing prices on men's clothing within the coming year. A few of those questioned declared It wollid require at least eighteen months for a readjustment of conditions sufficient to cause any appreciable decrease In costs. One or two said they believed prices should beglu falling in eight to twelve months.

POULTRY RAISING

By FREDERICK J. CRICK. Former Extension Poultry Husbandman, U. 8. Department of Agriculture. Thera la probably no business in the world and especially one connected with the work of farming that Is more profitable than poultry raising. It Is true that a great many have engaged in the poultry business and made a great success of it while othert have failed. The poultry business is at Its Infancy. The demand for meat products are becoming greater every year, which affords the poultry raiser a market for his surplus supply at the same time those selling breeding'stock, hatching eggs and day-old chicks the demand for same is never met. In the foreign countries during the period of the war poultry production practically ceased, their breeding stocks were used to supply the meat shortage, which, due to these conditions, opened another market for breeding stock. BACKYARD POULTRY RAISING EAST. Those keeping backyard poultry can make a success of poultry raisirg, providing they adhere to three principles: Proper housing, proper breeding and proper feeding. The average person keeping poultry in the city becomes discouraged due to the fact they do not follow these rules and when eggs are scarce and prices high the majority of poultry raisers do not get eggs. The reason points bar• to one of the three principles mentioned above. If the birds are exposed to the cold and damp, diseases are sure to break out In the flock. A bird sick can not be expected to lay, Us vitality Is low commanding all the feed to keep its body nourished. If proper breeding Is not followed the average flock is composed of 10 per cent drones, naturally breeding from drones you will produce drones. This is one of the reasons that discourage backyard poultry keeping. FEEDING PROBLEM NEXT TO BREEDING. Next to breeding the greatest problem the poultry raiser is confronted with isr feeding, with the desire to obtain the very best results. Hens mnst be fed properly to retain their bodily vigor and to promote the production of eggs If the grestest profits are to be secured. Scientific feeding Is no secret any longer. It la merely an exhaustive study of tbe fundamental principles of egg producing food required by a hen. If a hen is fed a balanced ration throughout the year, providing, of course, she Is bred properly, she will be found laying throughout most of the year~ Hers is a machine for the manufacturing of eggs. Furnished with the right sort of raw material the hpn will do the rest. If you feed a perfectly balanced ration furnishing the elements to be found within the egg you will get eggs. PROPER FEED NECESSARY FOR CHICKS. The samo pertains to the raising' of young chickens. Each must be supplied with the proper food to develop the mus-
