Curious though it may seem, it la A fact that birds are caught with rod ar.d line in many parts of the world The pastiioe is declared to be almost as fascinating as fishing. Gulls in Newfoundland are caught in thia way in large quantities. In New England f.hhing for gulls and petrels is an im portant industry. The method of bird fishing Is prac tically the same as that of ordinary ihto. Two men go out in a dory Jul throw pieces of cod liver cn the water. When large quantities of birds 'have been attracted to the spot more iced liver is thrown out on a took. This the birds greedily swallow and thus fall easy victims. Albatross are fished for in the same way off the Cape of Good Hope. A piece of pork is attacked to a locjr line aud thrown ovorbonrd. The bird will eye It for a long time, gradually and cautiously making toward it. Suddenly he will seiz it and hold it in his beak. When he discovers that he is caught he will sit ou the water and Timorously fan his wines. However. h wlU be tlr wn into the boat and aide a captive. ' Albatross fishing is good sport, since tie bird requires careful handling. So ilong sis he pulls against the line it 'is easy enuh. The moment, howlever, he swim forward the hook will ;drop frara Ms fceaJt usltss It Is skillifully isanip'ilate-d, aad tbe bird will ;2id LlmsslT free.

CLEAN UP AND BE PREPARED

Vernon must begin at once and have all the weeds cut on the public streets and alleys and the farmers adjoining town must see to it at once that the weeds along the road sides are cut. Every property owner a:id renter is expected and urged to clean up his yard and premises, and see that the streets and a1 leys adjoining his prorer ty are kept clean from now until this Fourth Indiana Congressional District Reunion is had, Thursday, September 2, 191!. The ptoperty owner must not try to shift the blame of this work upon the ienter and the renter must not hift the b'ame of tise work upon the property owner. This means your premise, your adjoining tide of the street or street-", alley or alleys. TheSchO)! tru-tees aod couucilmen must c -operate and see that the scaool grounds are the lots to the south and the streets adjoining the school grounds are cleaned and weeds are kept cutThe trustees of the several churches should see that the .grass and weeds and the grounds surrounding their churches are clean. The lodges should take such steps in regard to keef iug the surroundings of thir property cleaced up. The store keepers and other business men should keep au eye out to keep theirsurroundingi cleaned up. Every man woman and child should be care fu! about throwing papeis and other rubbish into the streets and alieve. Public opinion is a strong force and has Ua eye on every man, woman and child in aud around Vernon and it ex pects every one to do his duty in clean ing up for this great soldiers reunion. probably Vernon 's greatest historical event. Eery property owuvr, owning or renting property alongside of the Muscatatuck river on either tide where Vernon' exterior corporation Hue ex tends; that is from tne Old Jones Hole, near the point of the Loftus Farm, thence by Little Rocs, Cambeli Ford Bridge, Eir.-t Railroad Bridge, The Forks, The Cemetery, Bluebell Ins'ad, Huckleberry Bridge, Back of Leavitt's and Burt's Hole to Vinegar Mills. Now tlnse property owners should at once take such steps to better these banks of the old Muscatatuck, by pas turing tbem or by cutting the weeds, by cutting f-ouie of the underbrush or burning it and by trimming under neath the trees, in all ways bettering and improving this beautiful Muscatatuck river, just a ltttle wora will im prove this stream and it will make the old-timers see it more like it used to be. Then hereafter gradually make the appearance of this stream and all the surroundings better. The town council csuld compel the property owners along the streets, al-1 leys and river to do this, and if not th?n have the work done and charged to the property owners near by. But let this work be volunteer work. Take more pride in your town and home property and do not have to be compelled by law to do them, and which when done will enhance the value of the property two dollars for every dollar expandtd on this work. Vernon cin not be beaten in Indian a for her picturesque and beautiful location. It is now up to the citizens to capitalize her natural resources and boost instead of knock. So Vernon expects every man, woman and child to improve his home surroundings, to welcome the visitor, to always be courteous and civil. The boys and girls as well as some of the grown-ups, should not blocade the streets and sidewalks either by crowds or by placing vehicles and other unnecessary articles on the sidewalks or in the streets. So let us go to it one and all. Janus Huutiugton is spending most of his time in his s-tudio of music, Oratory and Parol training in North Vernon. TIME TABLE.

FATE OF THE RED TERROR

Bolshevism Wilt llo&t Probably Go the Way That Was Traveiid by French Revolution. It is a ten-to-one shot that Russian bolshevism will blow up and blow out as suddenly as French terrorism vanished a century and a quarter ago. Up to date the Russian revolution travels precisely the old track laid down by the French revolution, writes 'Girard" in the Philadelphia Press. First Mirabeau and his solid type of revolutionists started the thing and put the skids under ICh Louis. Then along came such blood-letting terrorists hs Danton, Murat and Robespierre, with their merciless guillotine working day and night betu' a Cling kings and queens and nobles. Then appeared the master. Napoleon, who quickly made France on of the best ordered, best organized and most prosperous lands on earth. Russia's Mirabeuu phase passed with the peaceful and practically bloodless, dethroning of the ezar. Then followed the terrorists, Lenino and Trotzky. Franee's reign of terror lasted only a couple of years. It does not seem possible that among Russia's 180,000,000 people there is not a Bonaparte to catch the wild horses and put a bridle on them. After it was over it seemed an incredibly easy thing to turn out King Louis and Czar Nicholas. It will be just as easy for Russia to upset her present masters as to unseat the Romanoffs. It is a poor sort of a revolution that can't revolve all the way round and keep the heels of both the czar and the bolsheviki off our neck. HOW HE EARNED HIS CROSS American Soldier of Chinese Parentage Talks Modestly of Deed of Great Bravery. Corporal Sing Kee, color sergeant of the Three Hundred and Sixth infantry of the Seventy-seventh division, holds, one may fairly believe, the distinction of being the only American soldier of Chinese descent who ever won a Croix de Guerre in France. The corporal is a modest warrior, not loquacious in the tongue of his fellow soldiers; and when asked by a reporter to tell how he won his cross he replied, "What did I do? I did, that's all." Others, however, are. more explicit, and what Corporal Sing Kee really did was to carry messages through gas and shell fire. He was one of the twenty runners between commanders of advanced battalions at Mont Notre Dame, and at the end of the second day thp corporal was the only one still remaining in action. Late in the afternoon he was gassed, by the enemy, but managed-to reach his destination. After that; came the Croix de Guerre, honorably fearned by the Amerm soldier of Chinese parentage who f ;$t "did, that's all." Christian Sclave Monitor. Writes Treaty hy Hand. News dispatches -from Paris reported the old tradition that treaties shall he written by handlsurvives, and that Joseph Carlo of the- French ministry of foreign affairs, official caligraphist and painter, wrote the new peace treaty. For 40 years j the post of official illuj mlnator in thejFrenel ministry of foreign aiTairs was held' by M. Garapin, according to the Detroit News. He had one love In .life "the pen," to quote his own words, "this simple and marvelous iixstrum-ont through which human thought is transcribed and forever preserved.;" one hate "the vulgar and unaesthetic typewriter, which prints withsoufart pages that time will not respect." Miners Apprecilated Books. Officials ir C harge (of Iowa's circulating libraries were afraid to trust a set of booksMo the (people in a certain Iowa minirtg district. They were afraid the looks wtould not be cared for property, and, thought they could be placed where Khey would be used and appreciated nnorWthan in the mining town. Throughthe efforts of the home demonstration-; j agent, however. one traveling librarytfwas sent to the j community: on trial. The demonstration agent !

ATTENTION COMRADES

of the ex-soldiers and friends of "I IlliUIi, lilU.

Last year's reunion here was fine, except the excessive heat. We obviate that trouble this year by using a later date. We not only expect to have a better reunion than last year, but to make this the Banner Rennion of the Banner District of the state. This rennion is under the direction of the Veterans of the Civil War; but every soldier of the Spanish American War, and every Soldier of the World War; will not only be o-iven a soldier's greeting and welcome, but a part in the program will be given them, Comrades, and Friends of Comrader, if we succeed in putting into execution our plans we must have your cooperation. I am assured by past experience that we will have it. Fraternally and Truly Yours, Lewis King, District Commander.
