Miss Norris Host
To Friday Night Club
Miss Annie Norris was hostess to
the Friday Night Bridge Club in her
home on West Kleberg last week.
The club had a number of young men

four tables for the evening. After
the games delicious refreshments of
pineapple sundae and angel food cake

A representative of a tribe of birds
which Includes the only kind In the
world known to practice self decora-
tion has arrived at the London zoo.
It Is a CHrthaglniuu motinot, from
South America and Its seemingly con-
ceited relative is known ns the Kncket-
talled motinot.
Racket lalls )*re not uncommon an
natural adornments of many birds, but
the mofmol produces his artificially,
for lie nibbles away the vane on each
side of the shaft on the two middle
tail feathers until the desired shape
Is obtained.
If excessive vanity prompted the
niotmot’s ancestors to nibble their
tails, as Is probable, this would ac-
count for the habit becoming Instinc-
tive.
It Is evident, at any rate, that the j
females learned to regard a racket-
tailed suit or in specially desirab «,
otherwise the “fashion" would Im^e
died oul.

Watchful Waiting
When Arthur Bernstein was maiing-
Ing vuu'levlllc he naturally got sick to
death of the flamboyant ads that her-
alded sonic of the acts. His pet aver-
sion was the so-called "death-defying”
thrill that wound up the show, be-
cause If sounded so big and meant so
little.
One day Manager Norman Whistler
Raid: ‘‘You don’t like those acts and
yet 1 notice you sit through them, show
after show.”
"Well,” said Arthur, “the rope might
break, and I really th|pk If I could
see one acrobat killed I would die
happy.”

lieves that he can sell furniture
cheaper by going where hla taxes and
licenses are cheaper nnd plans to give
delivery service In a 50-mlle radius •#
the store.—Indlarupolla News.
