All of which is an adequate explanation of the hoastings of youth, The boaster is ambitious; he would like to arrive, hut, too often, he has the ambition without the persistence and the energy to attain his ambition. I had a long letter from Bob a short time ago, written irregularly across the page with a pencil, reasonably legible but net always accurate. Bob Is ten, and his ambition is to be an athlete. Red Grange and Harold Os- borne and Pug Daugherity and Spike Rue are his heroes. There are a good many things of general interest going on in his family, but he makes no ref- erence to these in his letter. His grandmother is seriously ill, but that 8 2 matter of which he makes no Such Is Life in town. his tends to swim the English channel or the Atlantic ocean.

He has not attained the height reached by 3rownell, but he is coming along—six feet two, I believe, is the record, and with practice he expects to do even better. We used to say that children were untruthful; now we admit that they are ambitious and have imagi- nation, and Bob is letting his imagi- nation help out distance, no doubt. Not all people boast of the same things. Warren wants to be a social star; he would like to be a knight with fair ladies breaking their hearts for love of him, so he boasts of his conquests, of the girls who write him sort of hero he would like to be. Samuels would like to hobnob with the rich and the great, and especially with the great, so he tells casually of “Last week when I was in Washing- ton, President Coolidge said to me,” as if he and the President were in the habit of having regular confiden- tial talks with each other. He speaka of “my friend Douglas Fairbanks” or it may just as well be Senator Owen or Secretary Kellogg, or anybody of distinction whom Samuels has met, or has even had a passing glace at. It is pure boasting, of course, but it makes Samuels feel a good deal near- er to what he would like to be than he has really allowed. We all boast a little, and by boast- ing, reveal our ambition.

FARM LAND VALUES SHOW DECREASE Washington.—Farm real estate val- ues continued to tumble during the crop year just ended, marking a con- tinual depreciation during the last seven years, the Department of Agri- culture said recently, adding” that there are plenty of farms for sale with buyers few and cautious. Present values are about at the level of 1917 values, being placed at 119 per cent of the prewar level, while 1920 values were 169 per cent above the prewar figure. The decline in the last year was not to be wholly unexpected, accord- ing to the department, on account of the marked decrease during the year in the price of certain of our major farm products, the sharp drop in farmers’ incomes, and a generally inactive farm real estate market. The South Atlantic states showed the largest decline, being 137 com- pared with 148 in 1926, and 198 in 1920. In other state divisions values were : East North Central, 103 against 110 in 3926 and 159 in 1920; West North Central, 115 against 121 and 184; East South Central, 133 against 139 and 199; West South Central, 139 against 144 and 177; Middle Atlantic, 111 against 113 and 136; Mountain, 101 against 103 and 151; New Eng- land, 127 against 128 and 140, and Pa- cific, 143 against 144 and 156. Values for the United States as a whole have gone down 50 points, from 169 in 1920 to 119 in 1927.

One was discovered invari- ably to accompany a herd of ele phants. This not only made the trac- ing of the beast impossible but en- abled it to capture the natives who went out to drive the elephants from their plantations. The natives, the report states, are doing remarkably good work in wip- ing out what has become a serious pest and cases are on record of a chief and a party of natives in the village of Kyagwe tracking half a doz- en lions to the rocky hills where, with the aid of nets and beaters, they were spared and killed. Natives, however, are adverse to the use of the traps which are issued by the department. The reason is that these traps need careful attention and must be sprung by day. Other- wise vultures, marabout storks and secretary birds come down to the bait and fall victims. The natives, know- ing that these creatures are protected, are afraid to kill them and so let them loose, handicapped with broken limbs, to die a lingering death. “Once the llon has lost its instine- tive fear of man,” the warden de- clares, “it becomes a menace hard to eradicate.” Crocodile Also Menace. The report adds that crocodiles are included among other man-eaters and that hippopotamus is becoming more aggressive towards human beings, There are areas on some of the lakes where these animals are a per- fect menace to the occupants of ca- noes; while in others they have de- veloped the unpleasant habit of at- tacking, unprovoked, any person they encounter on land at night, partieu- larly people carrying lamps. The mangled state of the victims testifies to the arrant savagery of the attack. Dealing with the control of ‘large herds of elephants which roam the [ IN GOLFING “FORM” | x.

The elephant hunters’ work is full of danger. In Bunyora, for instance, the shooting has to be carried out from trees and the hunters are often knocked from their perches into the headlong flight of a herd of elephants The report refers to the feat of a ranger who bagged three elephants with one round of .256 ammunition. It occurred in tall grass, where, aft- er a stern chase, a herd of elephants was seen to ascend the opposite hill slope. The ranger, seeing that the ele- phants were likely to pass a tiny opening in the grass about 250 yards away, fixed his rifle in a convenient fork of a tree and waited. An ele- phant emerged from the cover into the open space and with a bullet through the heart dropped dead. The great carcass slid down the hillside, crashing open a wide lane through the Zrass. Vanish Into Chasm. A second elephant appeared and re- ceived a bullet near the heart, which did not kill it, but caused it to fall down. The steepness of the slope prevented it regaining its feet and in its turn this animal began to slide down the course taken by the first, A third elephant now stepped into the lane just below number two, which had now gained considerable momentum’ and, which swept the third elephant off its feet and together. the two disappeared into the chasm of the valley, not before, however, a fourth elephant had attempted to cross the lane and was caught in the avalanche of hodies.

To show parents who are interested in experimental schools what can be done to retain the emotional and in- tellectual drive of the “ask question age,” movies of a specimen week at Malting House have been put on view for a private showing. The directors, who include such men as Sir Erpest Rutherford, former winner of the No- ble prize for physics, and J. B. S. Hal- dane, essayist and biologist, recently attracted wide attention toward the school by advertising in leading scien- tific journals for a scientist “of the first order . . . to investigate and conduct the introduction of young children to science and scientific method.” Henpecked Husbands Despite the secrecy of the proceed- ings of H.
