Hoosier Vagabond

DANA, Ind, July 30.—And then there's that dog Snooks, She was just a stray pup that wandered in when I was home a year ago. A black collie, that had been Whipped and was scared of everything, even of Kindness. : My mother wanted to keep her for company, but my father thought it would be dangerous, and felt she should be sent away. I wrote part of a column about it then. And the wav readers went to town on my Dad! He's one of the gentlest souls on earth, but people from Alabama and Pennsylvania and Colorado wrote him letters calling him a demon and a fiend and a brute. We Kept the dog. (We would have, anyhow). Now Snooks has grown into a big dog. And I've never sesn a dog with such boiling good-nature and overflowing energy. She just drives you nuts. She is utterly spoiled and uncontrolled. Nobody can make her mind, because if you so much as say, “Go away now, Snooks,” you get a dressing down from my mother, My mother’s hands are all black and blue where Snooks chews on them. And when I leave for Indianapolis, I'll carry many a scar on my ankles. The dog doesn’t mean to hurt; she’s just got too much vim! She chases birds, but never catches any. She has caught a groundhog and three moles already this summer. And numerous small rabbits. The funny thing about the rabbits is that she brings them back to the house alive, absolutely unhurt,

Dog With Two Names

Two or three times a day she goes completely haywire to get rid of her energy. When my Dad yells, that's the signal for her to take out, and she rushes into the vard, grabs a stick in her mouth, and tears out around the house. She makes five complete circles of the house. running so fast her belly almost touches the ground. My Aunt Mary can’t stand much rambunctiousness, and occasionally gets the broom and makes a feeble attempt to give the dog a little teaching. But the dog just thinks Aunt Mary is playing with her, and goes even wilder. It tickles my Mother, She says, “Mary thinks she can make Snooks mind, but Snooks doesn’t pay any attention.”

WILLIAM GEORGE SULLIVAN, whose intellectual curiosity does credit to Yale, took time off the other day to type me a letter. “Can't you give us any more stories about Old Man Helvey and his daughters Bathsheba, Vine and Tantrabogus,” asks Mr. Sullivan. “I enjoyed your article of the 15th so much that I wish you would continue it in some future number. All the tales that I have ever heard of the Helveys have been comprised nn the all-too-few lines in Nowland's book. , "While Bathsheba seems to have been the glamour gurl of the family, my curiosity was always aroused by Tantrabogus on account of her name. In certain parts of England—Somerset, Devonshire and Cornwall—Tanvariants such as TanKkarabogus, Tantarabobs, ete.) 1s a colloquial name for “devil, goblin or bogyv.” According to the English Dialect ictionary, tantrabogus—usuaily ‘old tantrabogus —I1s frequently used as a playiul nickname for a boy or man and is also sometimes applied to a playful noisy child

When the dog came, my mother named her Snooks, | but Aunt Mary named her Betty. And now, after] more than a year, they both still stick to it, and the] poor dog has two names. Sometimes we sit off the porch talking about the dog, and if you didn't know about it, you'd think they were talking of two separate dogs. ”

Improvements on the Farm

My father rents out his farm land to a neighbor, and they are now cutting wheat, | Wheat cutting has sure changed in my time. When 1 was a boy, back before the Civili War, we had to cut] our wheat with a cradle, and gather it by hand, and| then beat it with sticks and tromp on it to thresh it.| Sure we did. i And then the hinder came along, and it was always my job to help shock the wheat or oats, and how I hated that! The only pleasure I ever got out of it | was chasing the rabbits that ran out of the grain] just as we were finishing the fieid. But today, it's different. I was scared to death somebody would suggest that I go out and help cut the wheat. But nobody did. For there wasn’t room tor me. It takes only two men to harvest wheat now —one to drive the tractor, one to truck the grain to market. y “Combines” have come to this Indiana country. A “combine” is a combination cutting and threshing machine. They've had big ones out West for years. But only recently have little ones come in, for these smaller Indiana farms. A neighbor of ours, Arid Lamb, has a new one, It cost around $600. Me pulls it with his tractor. People hire him to “combine” their wheat at $2 an acre. He can do 15 acres in a good long day. They say it does a cleaner job than the old threshing machine. | Evervthing has changed on the farm. When I left, 20 years ago, I had never driven a tractor, never heard of soy beans or hysrid corn or four-row planters or corn-pickers. But now every farm has a tractor. Children drive them. Sov beans are one of the major crops. A toothed contraption loads the hay now, instead of men pitching it. They say that 60 per cent of the corn around here is husked by machine. And I never knew until yes-| terday that a successful corn-picker had ever been invented. Jy I do get around, it is true, but the farm has kind] of gone off and left me. Why. one of our neighbors] even has an electrical fence around his cow pasture. That's what's wrong with this country. Flechrieal|

In Vermont it was a term commonly applied to any ill-looking object and, in this sense, it seems to have been current in Ohio over a century ago. Some] dictionaries suggest that our word ‘bogus’ is derived from it. “All of the above” (Mr. Sullivan is still talking) | “leads up to the speculation: Where did the Helveys come from, and why did the old man give his daughter such a name?

Handicap to U. S. Arsenals

‘By Maj. Paul L. Reed

NEA Service Special Correspondent

U: S. ARMY capacity for producing small arms— badly neglected before start of the new defense program ——Is expanding so rapidly that 12,000 rifles a month are in sight. The arsenal situation as a whole, however, is not too

‘ood. Most equipment is old, has not been replaced or modernized since the World War. Many techniques are outmoded, and production ‘“bottle-necks” hold up mass production. The army has only six arsenals. Right now the Springfield, Mass., arsenal is manufacturing 4000 of the new semi-automatic M-1 or Garand rifles a month and this rate is being doubled immediately. Manufacture of the Garand utilizes all new equipment. When production at the Winchester, Conn., private plant begins in October, the total will probably reach 12,000 or 13,000. And this does not take into account a third source to be added shortly, according to Chief of Staff Marshall.

” » » HE Springfield arsenal -—keeping abreast of best manufacturing methods-—has set a pattern for other U. S. arms plants. A small armory was first established there in 1777 at the insistence of Col. Henry Knox, Chief of artillery in Washington's army. From the beginning muskets were the principal product. The famous

The rifle is now ready for assembly.

Interchangeable parts manufacture, now commonplace, was first applied to army rifles at Springfield. The arsenal there is a testing laboratory and a standard or gauge of precision parts manufacture. Equipment at Springfield for the manufacture of rifles, machine gun and pistol parts clearly shows the effect of periodic buying and long neglect. Except for World War equipment, most heavy metal working tools are obsolete.

Picatinny, newest of our arse= nals, is fairly well equipped. Rock Island, Ill, only arsenal not in the northeastern quarter of the nation, does two types of work.

Watertown, Mass., arsenal builds coast defense guns and constructs mounts and does the rough work on the barrels of 3-inch anti-air-craft guns, which are then finished at Watervliet. Watertown arsenal’s equipment is large and nearly 85 per cent of it is more than 20 years old. Facilities for the anti-aircraft gun provide for only one gun at a time. Most of the army's 3-inch anti-aircraft guns have been made by a private manufacturer. Facilities for the new 37 and 90 mm. anti-aircraft guns are not vet available, but specifications are in the hands of several private manufacturers, and building

state is the gun factory of the Ordnance Department. It does all machining work on the army's gun barrels and finishing operations on the 3-inch anti-aircraft gun barrels. All breech mechanisms are made there.

A good deal of modern equipment has been added for antiaircraft gun work, but 80 per cent of the machine tools are more than 20 years old. Principal value of this arsenal to the defense program is to furnish small groups of highly trained workers to the industrial shops which will build field guns and the new anti-air-craft guns.

Always, however, there 1s the background of witchcraft or demonoiatry.” Mr. Sullivan continues: “Tantrabogus, as a name, was known in early New England and, some years ago, one of the Boston newspapers printed a number of letters and diaries from Colonial days, in which mention was made of a local eccentric who had, as a pet, a huge black cat ‘which he called Tantrabogus.’

Individuals are not going to live in houses like these in the future, partly because few will have any desire to do so, and partly because our social set-up will be so changed that it will not be possible. Historically, however, it will be interesting to see the various steps through which we have come in our development. I wonder if we have really grown to the point where the size of a house in which a person lives will have little interest to his neighbors, but what he contributes in mind and character to the community will bring him respect and admiration?
