CHEERFUL CHIRPS(By “Del.")

Mostly nonsense, except in those rare intervals when a real idea comesalong and is grabbed off.

Are you still solving crosswordpuzzles? We quit some time ago. Wegot disgusted trying to find out whatto do with the darned things afterwe got ’em solved.

The curiosist thing is how a man cansee a good looking set of femaleankles three blocks away in a crowdedstreet from the driver’s seat of hiscar and fail to notice in the wideopen country the approach of a loco-motive the size of a schoolhouse andaccompanied by a string of 42 boxcars.

In W. R. Hearst’s incomparable re-ligious paper, the Los Angeles Exam-iner, we find the following:

“Among those requesting prayerstoday are:

“ ‘Mrs. E. W., Los Angeles, for di-vine harmony.

“‘Mrs. M. P., Lcs Angeles, forspiritual understanding, eczema andprosperity.’ ”

Another marvel from the samesource:

“I asked our Divine Father for ahome of my own. and evidently hethought I should have it, for withintwo days I got it.

“I asked for a house with a largemusic room and I got it. I asked forincome property, and I got it. Iasked to be near a five-cent street carline and I am just half a block frpmtwo five-cent services.

“And for good measure heaped up,pressed down and running over, theHeavenly Father put me on the crestof a hill where I command a wonder-ful view of His glorious mountains."

I’m going to set down right awayand write the Examiner to intercedefor me with the Lord for cheaper

A work of unusual sort has beenaccomplished at Willcox by the Ari-zona division of the United States bio-logical-survey. It was the extermina-tion, of Pacific Isoast wharf rats thathad been brought in freight shipmentsand that had become a pest of largeproportions to the merchants andhouseholders of the town.
