' Deplores Passing of Wild Game . Many readers of Robert W. Chambers' novels
may not know that the famous author i3 an (authority on wild game and a champion of rejforestation and game preservation. As such in I the late' issue of McCall's Magazine he recently attacked the wastefulness of Americans in the matter of natural resources. Because of this waste he states that the old-fashioned American I Thanksgiving has become only a name, j "Forest fires, grass fires, marsh fires, dejstructionof divisional hedges, of Voocflots of forests, are swiftly destroying what remains of I that wild-life which once furnished our people fnjith Brt imruiTanf nnrl cr r'hean n RTmnlv vf "ffind.
ii protected, our wua game ditqs ana game
animaas can, ana win, Keep our neius auu j. ureses j clear of those animal and insect "pests which ruin thousands and thousands of farmers every year. : 'If protected and fostered, wild game could supply our population with cheap, wholesome, 1 nutritious, detectable food.
"We Americans,, by inheritance and tradition.
ought to enjoy these privileges today. We do not because of the ignorance, waste and selfishness of earlier generations. They robttjd us. Today,
every violator is a plain thief. It is the nation he steals from not ignorantly as did the former generations, but wilfully, maliciously, contemptibly. "No country on earth ever was so magnificently endowed with game. No source of food supply has ever been so criminally wasted; no source of pleasure and healthy recreatiorso wantonly ruined. "There are several remedies. "A nucleus for the rehabilitation of 'our native fish and game should be started by state
departments: a state forest (wnich includes a nursery), a state game preserve (where licensed shooting is permitted), and a state sanctuary for fish and game, in which no fishing and no shooting is permitted, and in which propagation of fish and game is practiced for the purpose of restocking the public territory within the boundaries of the state. "These three establishments would merely form the backbone of a systeta for state conservation. 'The last word - lies with the people. They must vote the enacting clause. For the decisive and vital consummation of our territory with fish and game fit for. food, the landowners of America must be responsible. It is up to the American farmer. "Then, and then only, do I hope to meet a score of neighbors over a real Thanksgiving table laden with a fragrant wild turkey flanked by a
smoking brace of partridges, the incense of
which shall blend with the excellent aroma from a haunch of venison, while ,deliciously browned quail and a pair of luscious mallard ducks complete the menu." -

On one end was a chimney of criss-cross sticks, plastered with mud, and in the doorway 6at an old man, smoking a long pipe, and surrounded by his does. The stranger got out. leaned over the fence, and, sought to engage the old man in conversation. "That's a fine house you have," he said. "Yes, sab,' replied the man. "That's a fine pack of hounds you have." . "Yes. sah, said the man. "That's a fine chimney you have on the end of youh house." "Yes, sah, said the man. The tourist saw that ho wasn't getting very far, and so he changed his tack, and asked: "Does that chimney draw?" "Does it draw?" said the man "Draws the attention of every dam fool comes by here.

are to be featured this winter, according to the best fashion prophets.
This Dronouncement may mean very
little to the masculine element of our
population who will continue to wear ears as usual regardless of fashion. But feminine America is supposed to be somewhat agog over the prospect of ears. Just as there were knees and knees, so it is to be supposed there are ears and ears. Women who have ears of the dainty, shell like variety are joyful over a chance to reveal them. On the other hand those whose ungainly
ears have been fine only to pad out ear puffs are wondering whether defiance of the new fashion will arouse the voice of eossip. The damsel . who
clune to ankle length skirts -when
knees were in style was set down as probably bowlegged. When ears come into full swing the woman who refuses
to show hers will be in serious danger
of havinff it rumored that she has
ears like sugar bowl handles. So far the appearance of the femin
ine ear has been chiefly a matter of gossip and prediction. Irene Castle, who is supposed to be responsible for
the bobbed hair epidemic, has appear
ed wearing her ears prominently dis
Dlaved. and the deduction is- that the
fashion followers of the country will not let Irene's ears be lonesome very
lone.
Meanwhile earrings are being worn in all circles, and the tip of the ear is
thus- broueht into the spotlight. Ev
erything from platinum and diamonds
to Chinese currency is being worn as
an ear decoration.
Earrings are one of the fashions
that come and go in cycles, their popularity depending partly on styles of hairdressing and partly on chance. When hair is worn very low over the ears, rings, even of the swinging variety, are not apt to be popular. As ears come into -sight ornaments for them become more interesting. In the remote past Persians, Greeks, and Israelites, bofh men and women, wore earrings as choice ornaments. It was from her ear, . we are told, that Cleopatra took the famous pearl which she dissolved in wine for Anthony's enjoyment. When Greeks Fell For Earrings. How the Greeks, who were such
connoisseurs or physical perfection, came to approve of piercing the ears is told entertainingly by Mariam Ellis, a student of the ear. She says:
"The Greeks, who of all nations must
have most fully understood the beauty
of the unpierced ear, fell a prey to thl3 aggravating custom when they were
already well advanced in civilization. The reason given is that they misun
derstood an oracle of Apollo, that de
clared if they wished to have good citizens, they were to put what they
held most precious into the ears of
their chiirden. Greek avarice pre
vailed over Greek philosophy, and Instead of putting words of wisdom into their chilrden's ears, they put literal gold and jewels into the lobes."
When the thrilling possibilities of
the earring are exhausted in their
present reign of favor we may expect the next sensation, the ear itself. By that time some one will probably find out that ears are shockingly immoral. Some vagary of hairdressing will show up ears in all their terrible immodesty and at once capable censors will be
organized to fight the new menace to the public welfare. If the prophecy that ears are to be important, fashionably speaking, is fulfilled they may prove almost as good a subject for warfare as knees have been. Seriously speaking, however, the return to popularity of the ear will undoubtedly meet with the approval of many people. Women's ears have been hidden so long that standards of beauty for the ear have been practically forgotten. Yet beautiful the ear certainly is, according to the verdict of artists of every age. Sculptors may-perhaps be said to concern themselves with the ear more
After Dinner Tricks
than painters. A study of any collec
tion of famous paintings shows comparatively few in which women's ears are clearly depicted. Generally they are shadowed and partly or altogeth
er hidden by the line of the hair.
In Sculpture, on the other hand.
where a faithful portrayal of anatomy
is intended, and where an ambiguous line is -impossible, the ears appear in more detail. The human ear to the
sculptor is an interesting problem. From the time of the Egyptians and the Greeks, statues of women have worn ears partly or entirely revealed. Beauty Depends Upon Size. Henry K. Bush-Brown, noted sculptor, says that artists have always considered the ear an 'ornament to the head. Its beauty, however, is sometimes enhanced when it is partially concealed, he explains. He points out that the Greek sculptors often obtained a beautiful effect by portraying the lower part of the ear showing below a graceful hair line. "The beauty of the ear," Mr. BushBrown says, "depends somewhat on its size. It should not be too large, nor yet too small. For symmetry it should be about the length of the nose, and graceful in line and modeling. The ears should, of course, be set close to the head." Many of us would say off-hand that the ears are not a particularly distinguishing feature. This sculptor says that there is probably more variance in ears than in any other feature. A seventeenth century scholar of Venice who attempted to classify ears found no less than 6 general tvoes. Miss
Ellis has pointed out that this number can be multiplied by three because of three sizes of ears, large, medium, and small, and also again by four, because ears are long, short, square, and round in, shape. This makes 432 general classes of ear. Some physiognomists have attempted to prove that character can be read in the ear that certain proportions, lines, and angles of an ear indicate certain qualities in the. possessor. This
is an extension of such popular beliefs as the one that a long ear signifies long life. Aged people often do have long ears, it istrue. But close observers have declared that the ear bcomes slightly enlarged in old age. In other words, a person has not reached old age because he has long ears; his ears appear long because of his age. Aside from this change, most students of the ear agree that the ears do not alter after they attain their full size. It is also generally agreed that ears are more useful as earring holders than as indexes to character.
No. 297 Ring Through Handkerchief A borrowed ring is placed , in a handkerchief. The handkerchief la folded up, and soule one is asked to bold, it, first feeling the borrowed ring inside. The performer, then draws the rinit through the cloth. . To work this trick, first obtain a cheap ring, and sew it in a corner of a handkerchief. (A penny may be used instead o'f ;the ring.) Take the borrowed ring, teat in the act of placing it under the handkerchief actually retain it in the hand, and fold in the corner that contains the sewn ring. The handkerchief is bunched up, and the ring is felt ineide. Then the hand which holds the borrowed ring squeezes the center of the handkerchief, and lets the ring come into view. The handkerchief is immediately shaken out, tt prove that it contains nothing. Cosvrmht, l9St, by Public Ledotr Comjivy

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can," "Take It," "Up"
ON TRYING
Most people try too hard. . I hear the phrase so many times: "But I have tried so hard!" My advice is not to try or to think that you are trying but to go ahead and do the thing you want done. You will surprise even yourself at the ease with which you accomplish things that you thought might be very difficult I have watched big men work. The thing that has impressed me is that they don't seem to be trying at all! They just do that's all. And then they pass on to other and more important tasks. The very first impression one gets from the suggestion of trying Is one of failure. Whereas in the command to have the thing done, one is given initial inspiration and takes genuine pride in getting at the task in the quickest manner and doing it in the best way. Of course, every goal we strive for isn't gained. But that isn't the Important point at all. The thing that counts is the way and spirit in which we strive. Some of the happiest and most beautiful characters I know have little to show, in a material way, for all they have done. The intense triers are" usually the chronic complainers. There are few exceptions. . x Ease of effort, visualization of the thing desired, and an inward faith that doesn't back-step or side-step, you must embody in your make-up if you are to become one of the leaders in this world. The more you think about your ills, the faster they multiply.' And . In exactly the same way, the more you try, the harder becomes your task. Take the example of a child. Tell it to try and do a certain thing. N It will try and, in nine cases out of ten, fail. But tell this same child to go ahead and do this thing for you and in nine cases out of ten what you wanted done will be done. Providing, of course, that your request' was a reasonable one. In the one case, the child got the impression that it didn't matter as to the finished task, so long as it tried. In the other case, there was aroused both a desire and a certain pride, both of which seemed to tell the littl mind that that thing could be done. " ' We are beings of two natures one conscious, the other unconscious. The conscious says: "I will try." The unconscious says: "I will see that it is done!" We are just beginning to learn that this unconscious self of ours, is in reality our real ruler and the inspirer of our greatest deeds.
