Find Typist Moves Ton Tons Per Day

DONDON. April 30. - (A?) Move 10 tons a day? it's easy. men. A slip of a typist can do It any day with her fingertips.

Statisticians for British type- writer manufaciurers worked it out this way: I

The average typewriter key re-I

quires a pressure of 14 ounces. The length of a line of typing averages

six inches. That. means 80 im- pressions (or one line or 040 ounces.

if the average letter runs 15

lines. that's 12.600 ounces. Thirty letters are regarded as a good days work for a typist. That

means 37il.000 ounces a day - 23.- 625 pounds or about 10 1-2 long inns.

THE WATER WALKER

That. quite impossible for you. Another easily may do. -old Mother Nature.

Peter Rabbit was startled. Yes. sir, he was startled. so much so that his long ears flew up like two ques- tion marks, and his eyes seemed to be trying to pop out of his head. It was at what is sometimes rall- ed the edge of the evening. -that lovely time of day when it is nel- thor light nor dark. but soitly shadowy. Peter was sitting among some young ferns at the head of the Smiling Pool. Old rMother West Wind had gathered her children, the Merry Little Breezes into her big bag and taken them to rest be- hind the Purple Hills. The Little Night Breezes were not yet awake. So not the smallest ripple stirred the smooth surface of the water In front of Peter. Out in the water were several clumps of rushes, brawn little islands with the green of new growth above the broken- down doad rushes the cold of win- ter had Iiilled. .

"I dldnlt see it. I know I didn't.

one who could do it,' said Peter. He was talking to himself.

”What was it you dldnt see?" asked 3 Sfillvaky voice. Peter turn-

ed to see his long-time friend, .

A COSTLY DOUBLE

The sort of double made by East in today's deal is perhaps the most injudicious in bridge.

It mattered very little what West chose to lead; as it happened, he selected the spade jack. Declarer risked the finesse of the queen- if this lost he would be able to dis- card a diamond on the spade ace- and when the queen held the trick, South led the eight of hearts from dummy. East's unhcstitatlng play of a low heart did him little good in view of his double; South could be sure that East had nothing but heart length to double on, and con- sequently let. the eight-spot ride. West showed out. and declarer then led another trump. This time East split his honors. putting in the ten- Spot. and south won with the queen.

South now led a diamond to dummy's king and, mi another trump finesse. could pick up all of East's trumps. The hand was now reduced to Iiotrump play. but this did not worry derlarcri Since west had had no hearts, he was marked fairly long in clubs. and so de- ciarcr played the club ton and pus- sed it through West. When this lincsse succeeded, South became really ambitious! He cashed the dia- mond ace and the spade ace. dis- carding his own last diamond on the latter. West had been forced to hold spade protection against. dunI-

I couldn't have. There isn't any.

"They do moi us sometimes," agreed Jerry.

Jerry Muskrat, sitting on a small mud landing-place he had made very near to where Petr-r sat, near enough to overliear what Peter had said.

”l thought I saw some one cross from the ('Il.lfl'Ip over there to that other one out there. but of course I didn't," replied Peter.

"Well. what of It? Why do you think now you didn't see what you thought you saw?" on the face of Jerry Muskrat was a puzzled look.

"I couldn't have seen what couldn't be, could I Of course I

I couldnt. Nobody could do that." re-

tortcd Peter.

”i dont know any reason why you shouldnt have seen some one cross from one clump to another. I often do it. Perhaps you saw Mrs. Jerry." said Jerry. .

"Do you think I wouldn't know Mrs, Jerry it I saw her?" asked Peter scornfully. ”i didn't think I

' saw any one swimming. The one I

saw, or thought I saw, wasnt in the water but on it. so of course guess you didn't. see any one, just thought I did."

"Perhaps it was some one flying very low over the water so that they looked as if on the water," sug- gested Jerry.

"Listen. Jerry Muskrat. I guess 1 iknow wings when I see them. I didn't see any one flying or swim- ming." declared Peter lndignantly.

"Then what. were they doing?" squeaked Jerry.

”walking, or running. which is the same thing only last." replied Peter.

"On the water?" squeaked Jerry.

"That's what I said. (l1ldn't I?" replied Peter sharply. He was be-

lginllillg to feel a little cross. You

know how it is when folks ask too many questions.

"I guess you are right. Peter. I guess you didn't see any one, just thought you did," said Jerry mild- l

y.

-Peter nodded. "I think so too.. It must have been that way. Folks don't. walk or run on the water. Oi course not. No one can do that. Anyway I've never heard of any one who can. Yet it certainly did look as if some one ran from one clump of rushes to the other. I wouldn't have thought my eyes could fool me like that." said Peter.

"They do fool us sometimes,"

” agreed Jerry. - .

.”If a fellow can't believe his own eyes what can he believe?" said Peter. He gave a startled exclamat- ion. "Look!" he cried.

On the shadowy surface of the water a, small person appeared to be i-unningtbetween two clumps of rushcs.. Jerry Muskrat began to chuckle. It was 3 squeaky little chuckle. "I forgot all about water- foot, Your eyes didn't fool you after all, Peter." said he.

Peter appeared not to hear him. He was staring round-eyed at the water round those rushes. No one was to be seen now.
