The Atkinsons have cat and canary trouble, and they strongly suspect that Pete would Iike the new canary to go the way of the last couple. Hence, until Pete learns better manners, he’s banished to the outdoors. . . , Mrs. Harry H. Wintrode, 3860, had just somewhat resignedly shut off a pleasant sun porch, a favorite summer spot, and
of the block, having lived there 30 years, . .. When: we heard the Wintrodes’ last name we were surprised to hear they didn’t come from Andrews, a little town in the northern part of the state that’s practically populated by people of that name. Mrs. Wintrode had never heard of the town and had no relatives there
but she thinks they'll drive there sometime to look it over.
Probably Just a Little Colt
WE HEARD an interesting story about Judy Swent, A tot who lives at 3862. Judy was telling a neighbor that her brother “Johnny” was in bed because “he can’t talk so well today.” “Oh, maybe he’s a little hoarse,” suggested the neighbor. The indignant Judy answered “Oh No! Johnny’s not a horse—he’s a boy.” That remark, and a few others like it, have made Judy a neighborhood pet. . . , We thought we had found something with which to start a family feud when we aroused Bob Aiken from listening to rumba music to talk to us. Bob, the son of Mr. and Mr. E. P. Akin, 3858, was somewhat confused by our bursting in on his morning radio listening and subsequently told us that golf was the principal interest of himself and his father. “Shoots lousy though,” said the son, and we thought he was talking about his father’s L . As soon as we asked him to clarify the remark, he protested that the “lousy” referred to his own golf. He evidently saw the possibilities of any statement about his father’s golf, so he wouldn't make any. ro
Ever Hear of ‘Bunny Ears’? THE FIRST hardy soul we saw out in their yard was Mrs. H. M. Maher, a dyed-in-the-wool gardener who keeps up a dozen or so of flower beds at 3820. The yard was covered with ashes when the Mahers moved In. In a few short years the enthusiastic gardener has put in rock gardens, flowers and shrubs of all sort. All up and down the backyard she has beds bordered by rocks which have been brought to her from “all over creation.” Every time a friend goes on
Snowed Under
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2—There. was a little guy with a close hair cut, wading around in a sea of federal documents, trying to find surplus radio materials for veterans. He was head man in charge of the job. For two months he worked alone, while the paper piled up to his hips. Then he got a secretary, but her mother took sick and he was marooned again in his ocean of order blanks, . Later she returned to work. Still later the little guy got three assistants, but the papers were piling
on all the desks and three feet deep on the floor. His phone kept going blooie. Twice it was dead for three weeks at a time. Eventually he had piled around him 75,000 separate papers, describing 75,000 different batches of radio electrical equipment. He also has incoming usands of orders from colleges, police departments and veterans, who wanted to buy some of the stuff. The orders came from everywhere excépt New England; the Boston regional office of the war assets administration never did forward its orders to headquarters.
Did His Best
THE LITTLE GUY did the best he could. Sometimes he worked at night, shuffling through the papers, trying to fill orders. This was not so easy, because he didn’t know where the actual stuff was located. Not even in what states. . Some nights he relaxed by writing a short story about a poker game. No magazine ever bought it. Back he went to the papers on the floor and he stumbled on some luck. * A veteran wanted 2000 radio
Science
MAKE A NOTE now to watch the sky on the evening of Wednesday, Oct. 9. It is entirely possible hat you may be rewarded with the most magnificent display of celestial fireworks of your life, perhaps of all history. ; Astronomers have reasom to think that a shower of meteors or “shooting stars” of unusual number and brilliance may occur on that night. Such an event, however, cannot be predicted with certainty and hence it is also possible that nothing very important may happen. But it is worth watching for because truly spectacular displays of shooting stars are exceedingly rare do not occur more than two or three times in ntury. . . ’ 3 The predictions for Oct. .9 are based upon. the act that such a display took place over Europe on the night of Oct. 9, 1833. - ———— “As the sun set in Europe on Oct; 9, 1933, it was observed that a shower of shooting stars was -already in progress. During the next two hours, the number f meteors increased until the sky was filled with them. It was a veritable “rain of fire.” At the peak of the display, astronomers counted tix meteors per second or a total of 20,000 per hour. The sight was one of unbelievable beauty and majesty.
Display Not Seen Here
BUT THE DISPLAY ended about 9 p. m. in Burope which was still three hours ahead of darkness m the Atlantic seaboard. Consequently none of the {isplay was seen on this side of the ocean. It was subsequently calculated that on the night f Oct. 9, 1933, the earth passed within 500,000 miles yf the spot where a comet known as the GiacobiniZinner comet had been 80 days before. HYDE PARK, Tuesday—Anyone of my age, living n the country, should make friends with David Grayson through his “Adventures.” © ° He wrote “Adventures in Contentment,” ‘“Advenures in Friendship,” “Adventures in Solitude” and ‘Adventures in Understanding,” as well as many )ther books. You need to have a few years behind you, peraps, really to enjoy these “Adventures,” but every ow and then, there comes a quiet evening when I iit before the fire and reread just a few. Last night it was “The Man Afraid” in the volume ‘Adventures in Understanding.” I enjoy the spirit that took Mr. Grayson to visit he man who had written him a letter—probably )ecause, every now and then, I myself am moved to 0 something of the kind and have exactly the same ing of the heart as Mr. Grayson had on entering letter-writer's office. The letter had conveyed to him the man’s fear of ife, and he wanted to tell him that that fear was he first fear to be overcome.

It was only natural for us to suppose that gardening was Mrs. Maher's chief hobby, but not so. She bowls constantly, playing in five leagues, as well as keeping house and gardening. And, what makes it even more interesting is that she bowls up in the 500's. (We don’t know how good that is except that it's better than our 73 per game average.) ... The other out-of-doorsite was Mrs. ¥. H. Thompson, who's been doing the gardening at 3828 some 16 years. She says she's no expert, but the shrubs and flowers look as if she knew what she was doing. . . .

tubes with which to go into business and, by gollies, the little guy found 2000 radio tubes listed for sale. Eureka! He put through the orders (eight copies of each) for the delivery of the tubes to his customer.
Slight Error
THE LATTER had to pay his money first. He then got his tubes. Or so he thought. A whopping big box was dropped at his door. He chopped it open and discovered, not radio tubes, but -parts for radar sets. They looked like they might have come from Mars. ' He's still got 'em; the government's still got his money. This was no surprise to the little guy. The same thing happened 20 times a month. All over the country his eustomers got sore about the punk service. They wrote their congressmen. The congressmen complained to the war assets administration, The big shots had to get somebody to answer the lawmakers’ kicks. They turned the job over to the little guy. This might have been poetic, but it wasn't justice. He suggested to the big brains that it might be a good idea to count their radio sets, so they'd know where they were, before they tried to sell 'em. They said this was an impractical idea. The little guy also had some other thoughts on how to move out the merchandise to the customers, They demoted him. He works in the junk division now. His name is James E. Waddell. This dispatch is based upon his sworn testimony before the congressional investigating committee of Rep. Roger C. Slaughter of Mo. The conclusion is obvious: Do not try to buy a radio from your Uncle Samuel; you're likely to receive a case of WAC lingerie or a carved stone bull. Nothing would surprise the little guy now.

\ &r This comet gets its’ hyphenated name from -the fact that it was first discovered by an astronomer named Giacobini in 1900 and then rediscovered by Zinner in 1913. It goes around the sun in a flattened orbit, taking 6% years to make the complete circuit. Now the head of the comet is known to consist of a “sociable group ‘of meteors.” It is composed of chunks of rock ranging in size from grains of sand to large rocks, this material being held together by mutual gravitational attraction. Associated with the solid material is a large amount of gaseous material. The tail of a comet appears only as the comet approaches the sun and seems to consist of dust and gases “boiled out” of the head by the action of sunlight. In time, larger chunks of material are lost from
“the-comet’s-head,so-that.the.space. around. it.is.prob- | J ably full of loose chunks of rock. . Undoubtedly, the | §
number of such stray meteors increases when the comet approaches a planet and thus falls under its | gravitational pull. Unquestionably, the earth ran into such a collection of stray meteors from the Giacobipi-Zinner comet on the night of Oct. 9, 1933, and the magnifi-
cent shower of shooting stars seen over, Europe was:
the result, f Now the interesting thing is that on the night! of Oct. 9, 1946, the earth will, pass within 131,000 miles of the spot where the comet passed eight days previously. In other words, we will approach closer to the orbit of the comet and the approach will be closer to the time at which the comet went by. Moreover this close approach occurs at 9:30 p. m., Eastern Standard time. There is every reason, therefore, to anticipate a good show that night.

There is, of course, no stich thing as real security for anyone in the world, There may be sorrow and suffering around the corner for anyone at any time.

Housing ——mw—i Senator Ball. Offers Program To Aid Builders
By JOHN L. CUTTER’ “United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.—Senator Joseph H, Ball (R. Minn) today advanced a five-point program to break the housing shortage in the shortest period of time. Senator Ball,.a member of the senate war investigating committee which has put the housing shortage at the top of its agenda, said he believed much could be accomplished by government orders in the right direction. : He proposed these steps: ONE: Eliminate price and priority cohtrols which tend to retard the flow of building materials. TWO: Forbid non-essential cone struction—‘“such as beer parlors, dance halls and other entertainment”—and limit use of eenstruction materials to dwellings or business enterprises engaged in manufacture, processing or sale of essential commodities and servises. THREE: Repeal the regulation which limits new home construction to veterans only, . FOUR: Amend local building codes to permit’ wider use of pres fabrication. FIVE: Break up building trades union practices. which delay and raise the cost of home construction, ” “nu SENATOR BALL sald one big fault with ‘the veterans housing program is its emphasis on home buying rather than rental. “Construction costs have risen to the point where few veterans can afford to buy the new houses” he sald. “And, no one is going to put up rental property with mgt controls based, as they are, on depression values.” Senator Ball didn't advocate removal of rent controls, But he be(lieved that if non-veterans were allowed to build new homes in an unrestricted market, it would make more = rental property open to veterans’ occupancy.
