Pp oa the water with such force as to drive the animal backwards. With a single his tail a lobster can dart ce of forty or fifty feet, and 80 quickly that even the swiftest could scarcely overtake him. ~ When the lobster swims forward, he ve pairs of odd little organs underneath the tail, which we call "swimmerets." They spring from either side of the soft hinges hy which the joints' of the tail are fastened to- , and each consists of two thin oval plates ringed with long hairs. Each swi t really ists of two tiny paddles, and by waving them to and fro the lobster manages to travel . along with some little speed. The mother-lobster glues her eggs to the hairs with which the swimmerets are fringed, where they remain until toa they are hatched. At first their young hold to the swimmerets by threads; later they cling by means of pinces, and after some days become indepen- dent. = : The lobsters and crabs struggle hard for the livelihood. They spare scarcely any ceature of the sea of moderate size, whether dead or living. They care but little for lost limbs, for these will grow again; and when wounded, so that they may not bleed to death, they throw off the shattered limb at the next joint, where a new skin quickly forms. One lobster will produce 20,000 eggs, which she will carry patiently for six months under her abdomen, fastered together by gluey threads. Even after she has broken open the oggs by the movement of her tail, and released the baby lobsters, she will carry them till their coat is hard and firm, and only then will she leave them to wander alone. The erab and the prawn, on the contrary, turn their lit- tle ones out at once to swim as scarce- ly visible specks in the open sea, where they feed and grow till their strange changes of shape are worked out. All the crustacea eat dead animal food; consequently they are 1seful in keeping water free from dead ma- terial. .In order to increase the num- ber by artificial propagation, some States have sassed laws forbidding ~ Empire Year Scores of planes in an ef -making Carnival of the Clouds Jos sul air races to and from the United Scates, Friendly invasion of Canada By the pur- fale. scpadion SF the United es Als 'orce from Selfridge Field. . .

Extremists Both "It Is the sorry fate of every hu- man institution to be finally corrupt. ed by acurfous conspiracy between its critics and its friends," says Rein. hold Niebuhr. Critics "are apt to see only the weaknesses of an Institution, and its friends are always blind to its short. comings and fallings. The great temptation of the critics is to sur- render to 'a wholedloaf-or-none philo- to to surrender to a my-country-right- or-wrong-love-ls-blind philosophy, The loyalist loathes the critics who con- demns the institution that holds the loyalit's devotion. On the other hand, the critics has only contempt for the loyalist who blindly clings to the institution that has aroused the critic's doubt. The critic who has no capacity for loyalty and the loyalist who has no ca- pacity for criticism re poles apart, yet they unconsciously join in a dan. gerous partnership.

MENS ay Farms and Firms Philadelphia Ledger: There is a wealth of significance in Mr, Hyde's definition of agriculture as "a far flung industry chraacterized by small units."

What colors! What forms! What beauty! And each case was worth a king's ransom. Special Themes In an adjoining room a loan ex hibit of jewelry current a century ago was ghown. Then gold prevail ed. The atmosphere was massive, yellow; the pearls were irregular; the dlamonds few, and the whole ef- fect cumbersome, But to-day the dia- monds are there in multitude, diap- hanous and sparkling as spray, and the emeralds, rubies and sapphires are wroughyt into bouquets. The plati- num has chased away the gold. The time has come when one can go to admire these exquisite abjects In the same way that one goes to a gallery of paintings.

For combiations of emeralds and diamonds one would recommend Maub , who the fa- mous '24-carat stone given to Jose- phine by Napoleon. For pearls and diamonds in their richest simplicity, it In difficult to surpass the execu- tions 'of Boucheron. The exhibits of Chaumet, G. Fouquet and Lacloche were also of very high standard. Jewelery, and Art The impression conveyed by so many flawless stones In such varied and brilliant groupings was that any order given to any of these houses could be carried out, whether per- taining to ring, bracelet, necklace or earring, Incidentally, few earrings were shown, and the bracelets seem- ed to have little vogue. The neck- laces were gorgeous affairs in many instances. Some werc developed into inconspicuous strings and very elaborate pendants formed cf show- ers of pearls, or masses of diamonds, or onyx and diamond ensembles. Among the rings, however, perhaps the fantasy of the artists was carried to the most unusual lengths. Imagina- tion to conceive new shapes, new combinations of stones, was appar- ently unending Not all of these rings would have satisfied everycme, for the square patterns and occasional cubistic, Irregular dovetailing of stones were so unusual as to be al- most repelling On the other hand, the designs were Interesting always, and some of the rings extremely beautiful. by Maub get In platinum. of course larger than Th 's ob: Jective and he could and did "hole out" from lcng range.

It is not, however, - partieularly important in the larger sense whose negligence it happened to be. The important consideration 1s that negligence was possible; that the owners of a ship were able to send it to sea in an un- safe condition. The reports on the sinking of the Vestris should be util- ized as a basis for new laws and new regulations so designed that it will be { Impossible, through negligence, ignor- ance or design, to send unseaworthy 'ships or ships not equipped with the most modern life-preserving equip- ment to sea. Until such laws and re- gulations are enacted, there is con- tinual danger that another Vestris disaster will occur. -- pn LIFE'S ROAD I expect to pass through this life but once.
