Frank Caltahan borrowed a sheet of note paper and an envelope from his nineteen-year-old son, Frank jr., tast Wednesday night and retired to an inconspicuous table in his apart- ment at No. 646 East 16th Street. His wife and their six children watched him with some suspicion, be- cause writing isn't ong of Callahan's usual Wednesday night diversions. “What you doing, Pop? one of the children asked Pop, bent low over paper, refused to answer Two three of the youngsters crowded around him, trying to peep at what he was doing, but he shooed and went on with the mysterious task. little while Mrs. Callahan time for her to learn his euilty secret. He told her he was writing a love letter, and stuck his tongue in his cheek and plied his pen. ‘That was the signal for the entire family to sct up a howl of derision, bot it didn't deter Callahan.

The younger ones were seated on the stoop of a vacant house; their director sat facing them on a small box on the sidewalk. What first caught my attention was Miss Ten wav- ing a small flag, while her c standing, tried to sing ‘The § Spangled Banner." Next ar there was a lesson in English. Then she took animal crackers from a paper Noah's Ark and had them name the animals and spell the names. When the name was spelled correctly the speller de- youred the animal. I offered Lit- tle Teacher money to buy an- other ark, and TI discovered, my, dear sir, that I was butting in. She told me to “tend strickly’® to my own affairs.

In the Zoological Gardens at Bronx Park yesterday afternoon T saw a beautiful und fascinating spectacle—a peacock in all its glory, strutting about with tail erect and spread out like an im- mense multi-colored fan; a per- fect riot of rich, gorgeous color- ings, quite unequalled for superb, scintillating beauty. Attracted by the remarkable display, miring crowd gathered, The pe: cock appeared to be well aware of the interest and admiration he aroused, He paraded up and down with his tail spread out and his plumed head held haughtily in the air. Then turning about slowly so that the ever increasing crowd might see him from every angle, he actually ‘‘posed’’ for us. Occa- sionally he emitted a peculiarly shrill ery, as if to say, ‘Here I am, my good people! Come and admire my beauty! Come and see the Great Peacock!" The per- formance lasted twenty minute then, his vanity apparently satis- fied, he slowly folded his tail until it made a long, graceful sweep, and stalked majestically aw pasties scki WESTCHESTER NOTES The third and decisive game baseball between the New Rochelle firemen and the police for the first leg of the New Rochelle Cup will be played at City Park, New Rochelle on Labor Day morning.
