DAILY SHORT STORY- SHAM COURTSHIP ALTHOUGH the day was warm, Johanna Talbot walked briskly along tne street. Her face was pale from the heat and the thick, tawny hair that framed it curled in damp corkscrews on her temples. Her wide, generous mouth plainly marked her as a child of laugh- ter, but Jo's lips were not laughing now. “What's wrong with me?” she thought, stopping before a store window and crit- ically regarding her reflection in the glass. Nothing, as far as she could see, Wwas Wrong. Then why didn’t she have dates like other girls? Just this very morning 14-year-old brother Bub had referred to her as his spinster sister. And Dan, her be- loved older brother and best friend, had wounded her pride by saying, “Looks like you're going to be the old maid of the family, Jo.” Jo's eyes wandered aimlessly over the display in the window before her. Photographs, photographs of smiling young men, photographs of wed- dings—salt on the open wound! Sud- denly she gave her parasol a joyous twirl. Here was an idea! Revenge on her brothers, too. If she could Just carry it out! She critically regarded the pictures and finally decided which she liked best. A few moments later she came out of the shop with the photo tucked under her arm. That night after dinner Jo, clad in a dainty new gown, announced to an astonished family that she had & date and slipped out into the twi- light. The next morning she overslept. Her family were at breakfast when she came down; they had been talking about her, she knew. “Well, what's his name?” Dan began abruptly. “Where's he live?” “His name is Jon Costello,” announced smoothly. Bub gave a disgusted snort. “Sounds like a movie actor!” “He is a—er—a broker.” “When do we meet him?” asked, his eyes twinkling. Here was the opportunity Jo had awaited. “I have his picture,” she announced calmly. “I'll run up and get it.” She left her family seated in open- mcuthed amazement. Upon her dressing table was the photograph which had only recently stared at her from the store window on Main street. Grasping it, Jo hur- ried downstairs again. “This—Jon Costello?” Dan gasped. “Why, “Oh, you don’t know him?” Jo tried to speak naturally. “Oh, no! No!” Dan assured her hastily, but her eyes fell under his quizzical glance. During the weeks that followed Jo ‘was home very little. Of course, even dad and momsie didn’t know that she spent most of the time at Aunt Martha’s house. The boys, it seemed, were also completely deceived. One day late in July Dan, wildly waving an envelope, rushed into the kitchen where his mother and Jo were baking ples. “A letter from Pokey!” he cried. “Pokey?” Joe asked with a smile. “Charles Pokeman Chancery, the Joe Dan Nature’s “This—Jon Costello?” we saw today?” “Don't go out of your way to make yourgelf charming, Jo!” Dan broke in. “Pokey is absolute- ly immune to fem- inine guils. More- over, you musn't be unfaithful to | Jon.” But Mother Talbot smiled and approved the pur- chase of the dress. Thursday came and Dan's friend came also. Charles Pokeman Chancery turned out to be a tall, rad-haired young man with gray eyes and a slow, winsome smile. And he didn’t seem quite so insensible to feminine charm as had been predicted. At least he seemed fully aware of Johanna's proximity. One afternoon when Pokey’s visit was almost over the young people were gathered in the parlor munching cookies. Suddenly the big brass knocker on the front door clattered noisily. Dan went to answer it and returned smiling broadly. “It's Jon,” he announced. Jo was stunned and Pokey looked up with obvious disapproval. Here was a rival. Seeing no way to es- cape, Jo went to the door. She stepped to the door and found herself face to face with the hand- some young man who had certainly been adorning her dressing table for weeks. “Hello, there!” she said with & strained smile. The man looked astonished. “How do you do?” he answered politely. Jo cast an anguished eye toward the open living room door, gulped audibly and said: “Let’s 80 out on the porch where it's cooler.” She stepped outside and closed the door after her. “Now, young man,” she stated icily, “you may take your departure. I don’t want to buy any shoe laces and I'm not interested in colored fish bowls.” And haughtily turned on her heel, leaving him gasping. Pokey was alone in the living room when she returned. Dan and Bub were strangly missing. However, if Joe had just then glanced out of the window she might have been amazed to see Dan clapping her previous caller on the back, down at the front of the lawn near the sidewalk. Per- haps she would have realized then that it is rather difficult to deceive a brother who has an interest in his sister’s affairs. Luckily, however, Jo's attentions were quite monopolized by Mr. Pokey Chancery. “Jo, dear one” he said, gently taking her hand, “during the last week I have, for the first time in my life, realized the value of a lovely woman in a home.” Jo smiled demurely. “Now, what am I supposed to say, Pokey?” “Darling,” he replied gravely, “can’t you see? I'm asking you to be Mrs. Pokey. I'm not going to take any chances with that other fellow hang- ing around.” Late that night a dark object, hurtling over the alley fence, and the tinkling of breaking glass marked the very sudden end of Jon Cos- tello.

Wherever they are abun- to the traveling or migratory group they devour whole crops along their food is destroyed each year by them. The lubber grasshopper is very port- grasshopper family has left dant and when they happen to belong route. Millions of dollars’ worth of ly and has established his branch of the family in Georgia and Florida, As you see, his wings are quite short, body robust and hind legs of a prodigious length. His uniform varies from green to black in color. His cousin of the Southwest is larger and greener. The rice fields near the mouth of the Savannah appeal greatly to them, and their plump bodies are clear evi- dence how well the food agrees with them. To step on one is a most dis- agreeable experience. To handle one is more so. At such a time he is very nervous and has what appears to be @ sudden nose bleed. It is not tobacco Juice that spills all over your hand, but really is the grasshopper’s life blood. The lubbers belong to the shert- horned side of the family and are true locusts. They are also musical. You will be aware of their talent in fields. The loud sna sound produced at th musicians simply go wild with joy. Their cymbals are in use all day until twilight descends upon them. Some of the lubber’s cousins prefer to be stationary while playing. caches to her credit. Then her life’s work is over. ‘Through snow and freeze of Winter the eggs pass safely. In an unsea- sonable Winter they are mislead by the warmth and, fatally for them, come out too soon. Thirty to ninety days are needed for the grasshopper to grow up. The babies look like their parents at birth and they go through four or five molts before reaching maturity. Their fully de- veloped wings come with the last molt. One week after reaching adulthood they choose their mates, and by the last part of June you can find grass- hopper mothers attending to their maternal duties, so intently engaged you can watch the marvelous drill at work. A pair of field glasses will better enable you to watch one of the most cleverly manipulated insect drills in the world in action. Don’t miss the show. Oldest Couple Celebrates. England’s oldest married couple, J. C. Ward, aged 98, and wife aged 88, celebrated their seventy-third wed- ding anniversary receptly at Ply- mouth. Bet all the kids are down at the playgrounds, so guess I'll go join ‘em. It's better than playin’ in the street. (Copyright. 1935.) Who Are You? The Romance of Your Name. BY RUBY HASKINS ELLIS. L el Il ""' I IIIII..uIlII“ i ‘ Iitll 1l il Farrand Tim Farrand famly is one of the oldest and most distinguished ones of all France. Strange as it may seem, the original name was not Ferrand at all, but Dusson (d'Usson or de Husson). For many centuries members of the Dusson family were counts of Mont de Ferrand, at Clermont Fer- rand, in Southern FPrance, and so came by the name Ferrand, which in later times in England was spelled Farrand. ‘The Ferrands were connected with the Clermonts by marriage and both houses became actively identified with the Hugenots. It appears that one Daniel Ferrand and his two brothers, Charles and Richard, left France and took up their abode in England prior to 1600. Another, Daniel Ferrand, had come to England as a refugee from France about 1560, and it is thought by some authorities that he was the father of the three brothers whose names are found there in a later period, The color description of the Far- rand coat of arms is: “Argent, on a chief gules, two crosses crosslet of the first.” Crest: “A cubit arm erect, vested vaire, cuff argent, hold- ing in hand proper a battle ax of the second.” These armorial bearings were brought to America by Nathaniel Farrand, the son of Daniel Farrand. Nathaniel came to this country in 1645 and settled in Milford, Conn. Some of his descendants moved to New Jersey and from there to other parts of the United States. (Copyright, 1935.) Gold Coin Worth $250,000. A Napoleonic gold coin, estimated by Hungarian National Bank experts to be worth $250,000, has been discovered among odds and ends belonging to a poor family named Formayer, living at Szeged, Hungary. Only 10 such coins were struck at the time because by some mistake one side of the coin bears the inscription “Republique Francaise,” while the other has the words “L’Em- pereur Napoleon.” Bedtime Unc’ Billy Does BY THORNTON W. BURGESS. It seems as if some people k The one and onlv thing to do. " —Old Mother Nature. Unc’ Billy Possum was in trouble. He was in about as deep trouble as it was possible for him to get into. He was in Farmer Brown's cornfield, where he had been sampling the corn in the milk and now there were others in that cornfield, others with whom he had no desire to have anything to do. They were Farmer Brown, Farmer Brown's Boy, Bowser the Hound and Flip the Terrier. Do you wonder that chills were chasing each other up and down his backbone? Unc’ Billy was running his best, but his best is nothing to brag about. He wasn’t half way to the lower end of the cornfield when he heard Bowser the Hound only s little way behind him. Bowser was baying in a way he has of doing when he is following a warm trail with that wonderful nose of his. Unc’ Billy supposed it was his trail. It would be only a matter of minutes now when Bowser would catch up with him. Unc’ Billy turned a little aside and stopped running. Yes, sir, he stopped running. What was the use of running when it was hopeless? There wasn't any use, so Unc' Biily stopped. He stood there, shivering and shaking, and then, as he heard the rustling of Bowser’s feet, Unc’ Billy just fell right over on his side. Yes, sir, that is what he did. He fell right over on his side and, as he lay there in the moonlight he looked to be dead. On came Bowser, Unc’ Billy, lying there with his eyes closed, expected every second to have Bowser sniff him over and perhaps pick him up and shake him. Bowser did nothing of the kind. In fact, Bowser passed right on without seeing Unc’ Billy at all You see, it wasn't Unc' Billy's trail that Bowser was folling with that wonderful nose of his. No, sir, it wasn’t Unc’ Billy’s trail at all; it was the trail of Bebby Coon and Bobby was, you know, already well on his way to the Green Forest. “Bow, wow, wow,” roared Bowser, and tore along through the corn. Stories the Only Thing. Unc’ Billy for a moment. Then he began to bark at Unc’ Billy. He made little jumps at Unc’ Billy, without actually jumping on him. He danced all around him. Unc’ Billy didn't move. He didnt’ move so much as a whisker. He just lay there, doing the only thing he knew to do, and this was to play dead. Flip gained courage. He reached out and suddenly grabbed Unc’ Billy by the loose skin of the back of his neck. He shook Unc’ Billy. He shook him hard. It wasn't pleasant. In- deed, no. But Unc' Billy made no sign that it wasn't pleasant. When Flip dropped him he feil limp and lifeless. Flip grabbed him again and began to pull him around. He did this a few times and then he Quite abruptly he lost interest in Unc’ Billy Possum. Like most dogs, he wasn't interested in anything that was dead. Had Unc’ Billy made the slight- est sign of life, had he moved ever so little, Flip would have jumped on him and tried to shake him to death. But, believing that he was already dead, Flip merely stood by, wait- ing for his master to appear. Bowser's voice was faint over to- ward the Green Forest. Drawing nearer were the voices of Farmer Brown's Boy and his father. Flip barked sharply now and then, to draw their attention, and all the time there on the ground lay Unc’ Billy Possum, doing the only thing he knew to do at such a time and so far he had Never in all the Great World was Psychology BY DR. JESSE W. SPROWLS. Levels of Activity. IT IS customary nowadays for psy- chologists to spesk of different levels of mental ectivity. The figure which might best represent these levels is to liken the mansions of the mind to an office buding with three floors and a basement. First is the purely physiological level, which might be called the basement of the building. You spend one-third of your time therz in the vwilight zone of sleep. The first floor is tne nutritive level, for one must have ready ingress and egress at this level. Food rules the world. Many persons spend their en- tire lives between the basement and the first floor. Some have no other ambition. Others Lave no aiterna- tive. The second floor is the level of social life. While every one saunters to this floor at least a little each day, only a few actitely manipulate | the furniture and decorations thereon. ‘Those who do not need to worry about the first floor by resson of servants and money spend abuut one-third of their lives here. Then there 15 the third floor, where dwell the thinkers, whose duty is to lay plans for the conversion of the physical world into human needs and human life. Tke stsirway to this level is long, narrow, wobbly and rough. Once you are there, it is a delightful place. TLe view from its windows is beautiful. There work becomes play. it seems to ‘ake a peculiar type of person to find pleas- ure on the third flcor (Copyright. 1935.) Dial Phones Increase.

Attention to this guide would have saved one casual investigator the quick but incorrect conclusion that the ex- pression witch hazel i a carry-over from the days when necromancers used the hazel twig to locate witches —an understandavle but easily dis- provable fallacy, which a little study would have revealed. Witch hazel, as we know, is the name of a lotion distilled from the | tree so-called. Tre expression ir the spawn of corruption auc confusion. The Old Enghish word, wiche, means & kind of an ¢'m. The Anglo- Saxon wice means a species of tree. And because the 'eaves of the wiche looked like those of tiie hazel, it came to be written firss wych-hazel, and then witch hazel. Witch hazel should therefore really be wice-elm, which weuld unscramble the eggs; but since this cannot be done, we will simpiy let it g» with the comment that anyway, that is how it started.

But for the little men in the world great men would never be noticed. It sometimes happens that a man's house is his mother-in-law’s castle. Perhaps a pretty girl is called a peach because she has a heart of stone. Daniel is the only man we ever heard of who wasn't spoiled by being lionized.
