A I TOS DUMPED INTO CHASM Automobiles with an original value of a million dollars will be J tumbled into a yawning abyss in ’lhompsonville, Conn., during the next few days, in an attempt to fill a hole in the roadway which appeared when a stretch of macadam 100 feet long and fifty feet wide dropped through. “This is certainly a novel way of keeping automobiles in permanent road use,” says, T. S. Johnston, Assistant to W C. Durant, “to say nothing of a possible used car market.” Before the use 'of automobiles, , ton after ton of sand was put in this gap to no avail so the selectman hit on the scheme of buying up all the old cars he could get, to dump into the chasm. Over 250 cars have been purchased for this purpose so far, at prices rangiing from $5.00 to $15.00. o OLDEST CLOCK The oldest clock in the world wrought in 1430 A. D. by an unknown artisan at the court of Phillip the Good of Burgandy. and valued at $2,000,000 has been brought to the United States for a museum exhibition.

REGAINS EYESIGHT Thirty years ago—back in 1898 —in a different era, in a different life, after 40 years of happiness in her simple home life, the light went out for Mrs. Carrie Sillery, of Carpentersville, Ind., and she became blind. Stone blind. Years passed thirty of them —long and torturous -and suddenly her prayers were answered and Mrs. Carrie Sillery could see. She was sleeping of an afternoon upon a couch from which she saw only darkness. She awoke. A piercing scream brought her husband, Charles Sillery, into the room. “Charlie —Charlie—l can see,” she muttered incoherently in her j°y- ’ , T But Mrs. Sillery stopped. It wasn’t Charlie before her. This man had white hair, was a little stooped about the shoulders, was a little older. She remembered him as a robust man with bushy dark hair. Now his hair was white. Mrs. Sillery looked into a mirror. Her own hair was white and a different face stared out at her. She asked for the children — | babies she called them —for when she “went to sleep” they were babies, but now grown into young men and women. One was hastily summoned from Hammond, Ind. Another xvas called from Indianapolis. A reunion was held the next day. Mrs. Sillery gazed at the house, the yard, the chickens and the sun. All had changed. In a shocked voice she reprimanded her daughter for havingbobbed hair and short skirts. 01 course she knew the girl’s habits had changed. She had “felt” it but seeing it was different. “No I have never seen a movie. I want to see an airplane. I have heard of them. “I want to see automobiles, and pretty dresses, and colors — lots of colors. I want to see bright things;^l want to see the Grand Oh, ljust want to see and see and see. I have been dead for years. Dead in this little house. “It seems funny—my friends 1 mean 1 knew them when they were all so different. They came to the house and their voices were the same but now they have changed. They are older. I can’t get over how the earth and world changes. But it has been a long time —thirty years.” — o CAFES ORDERED TO CLOSE I _ The government seeks to padlock 35)0 cases in Chicago. Two of them have closed their doors voluntarily. Club Bardad, one of the largest on the south side, and Hollywood Bar, on the north side have not reopened. A half dozen others, also under temporary injunction have indicated they would follow suit. “We might as well give up,” one proprietor was quoted, “if the law makes us responsible for what our patrons bring in.” o HEID UNCONSTITUTIONAL The Illinois Supreme Court last Friday held the Illinois gasoline tax law unconstitutional. The law, passed by the last session of the Illinois legislature, applied a rate of two cents on the gallon. About $8,7001000 gas tax was collected since last August. Oil companies and motorists may ask for a refund. Q _ Is Your Money Working? If you have idle money, why not put it at work drawing 7% interest. I have on hand mortgage paper, well secured by first mortgage on real estate at 7%. See me, or write for further particulars. T. J. PRICKETT Nappanee, Indiana
THE SYRACUSE JOURNAL
AN “EDUCATED” DOG He is only dog, only three years old, but he can add, subtract. multiply any three unit set of figures. He can tell time, make change correctly, give dates of national holidays and do many other things generally impossible to a child of his age. “Chum” is a three-year-old French collie and belongs to Mrs. Claude H. Davies, of Fort Wayne. Mrs. Davies has also been his teacher and her remarkable success in instructing this dog is attested by the fact that without any code of other pre-arran ged signals he can solve many problems too difficult for human minds twice his age. “Chum” has gone to school every day since he was six weeks old. Mrs. Davies purchased him and immediately began his education. She insists that he has not been “trained” but has been “educated.” According to MrsDavies “Chum” reasons out his own problems in his own mind and she never permits him to receive any tell-tale cue. “How much is two plus three, Chum?” Mrs. Davies asks. "Bark, bark, bark, bark, bark.” answers the dog. “I shall put any number of three figures on the blackboard that you may suggest, and will place under it a smaller number you may give me,” said Mrs. Davies demonstrating further. “456,” someone called out “231,” another said. Mrs. Davies then wrote the two numbers on the board, the smaller number under the larger. “Chum, subtract them,” she commanded. There was a moment of thought. The cerebrations of the dog mind were working, 'lhen the animal’s eyes twinkled and—“ Bark, bark, bark, bark, bark,” —a pause—“bark, bark,” —another half minute pause—“bark, bark.” And “Chum’s” tail wagged. “That is correct Chum,” said his mistress, “225 is the answer. Now add them.” Again the intelligent animal responded correctly barking out the answer. In the same manner he can’ tell time and indicate his reasoning. He can also give dates of holdidays and answer questions by barking once for “no” and twice for “yes.” As a climax Mrs. Davies said. “Chum, I had fifty cents and I spent forty-three. How much should I have left?” It puzzled the dog for just a moment and then triumphantly came “Bark, bark, bark, bark, bark, bark, bark.” THE PI LOTLESS PLANE A Los Angeles man is building a “oilotless airplane.” Next summer, he says, the plane will fly from Los Angeles to New York without an occupant. It will be controlled entirely by radio, operated from a second plaice flying half a mile behind. The science of aeronautics, verily has been making vast strides. It was only 25 years ago that the Wright brothers made the first airplane flight in history. Now plans are being made for a plane that will fly without anyone in it. What marvels of engineering and scientific skill have been compressed into the period between those two events! Q THREATENING NOTE Albert Anderson, 50 years old, farmer near Plymouth, was arrested by Federal Agent Charles Mazey and Marshall County Prosecutor G. Hufsmith Saturday and taken to South Bend, charged with writing a 143-page letter to President Coolidge attacking administration and officials of the United States, demanding $50,000 at once, saying President and chief justice would be assassinated if the demand ' was not satisfied. j, “PROSO,” A NEW FIELD • GRAIN FROM RUSSIA An Ideal Chick Feed A nursery In northern lowa has been growing PROSO for the past twelve vears using it as a cover crop for cleaning ground, getting V setting to strawberries and other nur wry products The grain has practically the same analysis, pound for pound, as wheat, and in Russia It J* used for making bread, etc., as *[•¥,?? wheat.

Mexico has agreed to stop the expropriation of Americans’ land that cannot be paid for and to turn back some that has been seized. Mexico also agrees to pay for lands retained. Mr. Morrow is helping Mexico to raise funds to pay for the land and to furnish tools and seeds for the 7,000,000 peons who until 1917 have been in practical bondage, because they were tied to the large estates. Thus by the exercise a little common sense another war is averted. — o The Journal 52 times a year for $2.
r gfflWF? ST. PATRICK’S PEPPY PARTY
WHEN good St Patrick rid Ireland of snakes he was doubtless unaware that he was starting a celebration which would last down to the present day. How sur- . prised the brave old saint would have been to know that almost fifteen hundred years after his death, and in a country hejiever heard of, there would be people celebrating his anniversary I Indeed, St. Patrick’s day has become one of the most popular party dates of the year. One reason is that the cheerful Kelly green lends itself so well decorations. Myriads of paper shamrocks hanging from the lights, green tipted carnations in the vases, crepe paper tablecloths adorned with Irish scenes— all help to make the festivity gay and colorful. Dancing Feet One delightful party was started early cm its triumphant way. For late guests, as they came up the walk, heard the rollicking strains of Irish tunes coming from the house. So with their feet already dancing they came in to find the earlier arrivals jiggine and singing Irish songs. Until a! the guests had arrived the singing continued, and then the hostess announced that in order to be real Irishmen thev would have to prove that they knev. something about the Irish. Accordingly, each guest was required to tell an Irish joke, and afterwards the group voted on which was the funniest, joke and which was the oldest. A jolly little prize went to each of the winners. Lollipop Ladies On a table were, all the makings of

I a dressmaker’s establishment—only • the cloth was crepe paper, and while • there were pins and thread and needles and there were paste and wire, too. The customers of this establishment were the queerest of all, for they were-only lollipops. But the guests proceeded with delight to dress them as policemen, shepherds, sailors, or other Irish characters. At this particular party the supper was served buffet style. On a table was spread a crepe paper table cloth decorated with sweet green pickle pigs with toothpick legs. What appeared to be white clay pipes were there, too, but closer inspection revealed that the bowl consisted of a piece of canned pineapple around which fondant had been molded, and the stem was of white stick candy. Captivating Food The menu at this party consisted of: Tuna Fish a la Newburg Parsley Crackers Olives and Celery Pineapple Ice Cream Petits Fours Coffee The fish is decorated with sprigs of water cress, and the green color appears again on crackers which are toasted, buttered, and then sprinkled with minced parsley. The pctits fours have tiny decorations of green frost- 1 ing shamrocks. The ice cream is made in the following way: chop fine six maraschino i cherries, one-half cup walnuts, and 1 one-half cup ginger. Melt one-half ] cup sugar in one-fourth cup hot Can- ; ton ginger syrup. Chill. Beat oneli pint cream: add o ld syrup, ntrts, ar.dr two cups crushed Hawaiian pineapple.';
• Freeze. . Sprinkle with tiny jpreen candies just before serving. ' I The Three S’. Another St. Patrick’s day hMtesi based her menu on a salad: Lobster Salad Almond and Olive Sandwiches Green Pepper Sandwiches Hawaiian Shamrocks Nuts Coffee Green Peppermints ) The lobster salad is an unusually attractive sight—even among the notoriously pretty salad family. Mix four cups canned lobster meat with, one cup celery cut in small pieces. Add one-half teaspoon salt and oneeighth teaspoon paprika. Mix with dressing made as follows: heat wie cup syrup drained from crushed Hawaiian pineapple. Mix three taHespoons sugar, three tablespoons floor, one-fourth teaspoon salt, one-half teaspoon mustard and one-eighth tenspoon paprika. Add the hot syrupy stirring constantly, and bring to the boiling point. Add one-fourth cup vinegar and allow to boil slowly three minutes. When coo] add enough, green vegetable coloring to tint slightly, then mix with the salad. Serve in lettuce cups with the sandwiches. Shamrock Green Add one-half cup sugar and had tablespoon butter to one can crushed and drained pineapple. Cook about ten minutes, stirring frequently. Turn into small baked pastry shells which have been baked in shamrock shaped p-’ns. Bake in a moderate oven for about ten minutes. When cold, decorate with’ shamrocks made by slicing o-een gum drops thin and cutting the into the desired shaoe. ~ ,
