Wo Terminal Island, Cdlifornie. How It Started BY JEAN NEWTON. Loggerheads. EV‘!:R 50 often we read that a cer- tain bill will never come out of committee because our legislators are at loggerheads—that is, unable to get together. Whether our lawmakers do or do not deserve the editorial obloquy thus cast upon them, every reader may judge for himself after studying the history of the expression. Loggerhead is a combination of log plus head. Thus loggerhead rightly .comes by its sense as some- body possessing the brains of a piece of wood—a blockhead, in other words. 1t is, of course, too much to expect individuals so animated ever to agree —or to be able to convice each other —on the basis of reason and logic alone. It is in allusion, therefore, to this tendency of numbskulls to perpetuate their differences, to the inability on the part of dunces to agree, that we have the expression “at loggerheads,” connoting conflict, or irreconcilable clash of opinion. (Copyright. 1035.) while he still had an entry—and— what is more important—while my wife had only eight tricks. Mrs. Sims decided in view of that notable overcall (which I imagine South regretted making) that Cul- bertson probably held strength in the majors to protect a take-out from his partner. His diamonds were ob- viously headed only by the king. Guess, number two—she played hearts. South’s ace was forced out and he shifted desperately to the queen of spades. He might have held the con- tract to four odd, had he continued diamonds, for Mrs. Sims must hold off one round, but 30 points is un- important. Mrs. Sims made five no trumps— an unqualified top.

N Nature’s Children Red-Shafted Flicker (Colaptes Cafer). BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY. [OUGH a member of the wood- pecker family, the red-shafted has seen fit to depart from many of the family traditions. He is very well known and so wide is his range he is sald to have about 124 aliases. As the flicker is rather shy, you may at first know him by his voice rather than his handsome coat. In some places he is sought as a game bird, as his diet tends to make him very plump. As his size, of 12 to 14 inches, makes him very acceptable, he has not seen. He is said to have a strange habit of making holes in structures for resi- dential purposes and choosing church steeples, school houses and other buildings. How he does so much bor- ing is a mystery, for his bill is not especially well fashioned for such labor. Though the red-shafted is not averse to routing out grubs and borers from under the bark of trees, his favorite food is obtained from the ground. He specializes on ants. For this his tongue is particularly adapted and he can pick up & whole “herd of cattle and their milkmaids” in a few seconds. ‘The handsome red-shafted is an ardent suitor and a very gallant one. He: "But, boney, why get so mad over a can of tuna!” She: “I'm sorry, dear, bus I've always been so disap- pointed in tuna unless it's WHITE STAR . . . that's why 1 told you especially so ges shas brand!” ILLIONS of housewives have found out this vital fact: there’s no balf-way quality in tuna!

Contains Vitamins “A” and “D,” potassium, calcium, phosphorus and iodine, that effective preventive of nutritional goiter. His red mustache, tail shafts and red wings add much to his gay appear- ance. His black waistcoat and glossy bill are enough to charm any flicker maiden. His courting tactice are well worth watching. He spreads his tail and sidles up to the young lady, then bows low before her and retreats, to bob and bow again to her. About the time when he thinks everything is going his way a rival appears. Now, most courting swains would consider this a fair excuse for a fight, but the red-shafted tolerates him and doubles his efforts to shine before his heart’s desire. With two suitors bowing before her one would think site would become flattered and excited. She assumes a bored expression that is truly amaz- ing. By some radio message the idea is conveyed to the successful one and the two fly away together. ‘The “high-holders” have a strange WOMEN’S FEATURES, Jolly Polly . Little Chat on English. BY JOS. J.
