But whoever heard D of a cow that walked 6 miles home? Daisy did.. A Montgomery County farmer bought her from Quince Orchard, and Daisy had to leave her little black and white calf. In her new home, Daisy had the best stall in the dairy, and the most delectable of cereals. Nevertheless Daisy was most discontented. She moaned and mooed at all hours of the day and night. Came & quiet dawn and milking time, and the milkman saw no Daisy. Neighbors were aroused to search in vain. Still no Daisy. She had van- ished, indeed. The distraught farmer was picking up the phone to notify police when the bell jangled, and the voice of Daisy's former owner came in on the wire. “What's the matter? Did you send Daisy home?” he inquired. Daisy had walked home that morn- ing, making the turns from one high- way to another, and covering the 6 miles in record time. She arrived a bit tired from the trip, but not too fatigued to greet her calf with a joyful moo. * ¥ % ¥ WHAT? NOTHING NEW? ‘YOUNG man now working for the | Government here formerly was | connected with an archeolog- | ical expedition in Asia. One day the wife of one of the financial backers paid the company a visit on a leisurely | Jjaunt around the world. The young man was detailed to show the matron the works. Putting | | on his most sober demeanor he con- | | ducted her through the ruins and la- | and nature of the ancient place, | sketching its past glories in times un- | known, dwelling at length on its un- } disputed antiquity and trying as best | he could to show what manner of man must have built the houses and streets they beheld. He thought, modestly enough, that he had given his guest at least a vest- pocket knowledge of the work, but as they started back to the encamp- | ment she said to him sweetly: “That’s | all very wonderful, Mr. X, but what I don't understand about the ruins is | what makes them look so old!" * ¥ ¥ X TALK OF THE AIR. VIATION is badly in need, the Navy Department has discovered, | of a standardized vocabulary cov- | | ering the operating or flying side of | the business. | On the technical side there is an excellent glossary prepared by the | National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, which has served very materially to stabilize the new avia- tion language in this respect. The N. A. C. A, however, disdained to go in for acrobatics, stunt flying, or single airplane maneuvers, which are all one and the same thing. d Things. ‘The result, says the Navy, is some confusion in terminology. “What is,” the Navy asked itself. “as ‘snap’ roll, a ‘barrel’:role, a ‘fast’ roll, a ‘stall’ roll, a ‘flick’ roll?” And it then answered itself thusly: “One and the same thing, dear reader, and each in current good usage in some part of the world. The defini- tion given by the average flying man goes something like this: ‘It's the maneuver that is done by heaving back on the stick and booting her.’” The Navy thinks some suitable agency should compile an aviation language which would not be so tech- nical as to pass over the head of the average man or so loose as to be proper reading for children only. * ok kX BIRDIES BY NIGHT. ENIS LYONS, lawyer in the Shoreham Building, is so pre- occupied with his professional duties that he has no time to play his favorite game, golf, during day- light hours. TN So he now has taken up night golf, playing his practice rounds with phos- phorescent golf balls. * * x ¥ IT'S BETTER TO WALK. AKE it from Jimmie Durnell—it's better to walk than have strangers give you a ride. Jimmie was on his way home from school in Chevy Chase the other day when some boys he did not know pulled up in a most respectable-look- ing machine and gave him a lift. But before they had gone two blocks | a pursuing policeman stopped them. | Jimmie slipped away during the ensuing questioning, but he heard | enough to know the bays had an auto whose owner they did not know and for whose transitory possession they had no ready answer. 9th & F Sts.

NEW YORK (#)~—The fish experts at the aquarium are worried about hippocampus hudsonius. ‘The seahorse population hereabouts has fallen off considerably in recent years, they said, because a mysterious blight killed eel grass, which means everything to a seahorse.
