CITY PEOPLE “EASY MARKS”
Many Bestowed Alms on Beggar for
Whom Lusty Youth Was En
gaged in “Barking."
Since efficiency is finding its way
Into all business one of the oldest
“professions" of all has begun to adopt
modern methods. The innovation is
due to a beggar who made his stand
opposite one of the subway entrances
along the Williamsburg bridge ap
proach on Delancey street, the New
York Evening Sun states.
Mar.y who passed this spot recently
were struck by the appearance of this
beggar, an elderly, long-bearded man,
who sat huddled up in a wheel chair.
Alongside was a husky youth of nine
teen or so, busily engaged in “barking”
for the beggar. Secretly the latter
must have thought it a good joke on
the alms-giving public, for there was
always a smirk on his face, as his
friend shouted so none should neglect
to drop a coin in the beggar's lap. His
“spiel” was in Yiddish, which, roughly
translated into English, would be:
f “Stop: Give charity, people.”
Many who ought to have known bet
ter stopped and gave.
No Place to Go.
O’Hara stood surveying the body of
his friend, lying in state. Then he be
gan to smile.
“What is there funny about it?” de
manded an outraged friend.
“ ’Twas only last week as Clancy
was saying to me how there ain’t no
heaven and no purgatory. An’ here
he lies now, poor divil, all drissed up
and nowhere to go.”—The American
Legion Weekly.

“I am glad to give (his opportunity
to learn a good business to a returned
soldier. But you will have to begin
at the bottom.”
“That is a lot better than going over
the top.”

New Wireless Distress Call.
A novel wireless emergency device
by which ships in distress can ring
alarm hells on other ships within wire
less range is reported by the Ameri
can chamber of commerce in London.
The present wireless system of com
munication requires (hat an operator
to hear a call must be on duty, wear
ing the usual telephone headpiece.
The new device is said to enable any
station or ship equipped with a spe
cial automatic transmitter key to call
up any station or ship within range,
fitted with a corresponding receiver re
lay, wen If the operator is absent.
The calling up, according to the Amer
ican chamber, is effected by a bell
which starts ringing on the ships
called.
It is claimed that one of (he most
important uses of the devices will bo
to insure immediate and general at
tention to S. O. S. calls.
Wild Dogs Devour Sheep.
Depredations by packs of wild dogs
are causing Australian sheep owners
heavy damage, according to official
reports received at Washington. A
delegation of stockmen recently sub
mitted to the minister of public lands
of New South Wales statistics show
ing a loss of 50,000 sheep in that prov
ince alone in the course of a few
months. The delegation requested
government aid in the erection of a
“dogproof” fence to isolate a district
comprising almost 40,000 square miles.
If people like each other well enough
they will argue. They’re not afraid to.
