to the Jays of early coal mining in
southern Illinois, gradually is dis
ppouring just as Is Old Dobbin, the

draft animal of the mining tndustry.
Stor es pictoring the mule g Ing 1
blind by con iutiv being kept un

born far below the surface are dis
counted by the more truth-loving
miners as fairy tales and by the1
mine operators as stones whose |
design is to ierid a touch of ro
mance to the early history of coal
mining.
The mod-?rp mind finds use for
only one mule, that for the distribu
tion of powder, after the minors
have been hoisted" to the service.
This mule ii lowered to the bot
tom of the ".haft, but brought back
up after completing its work and
is cared for in a stable abova

ground. Electrical power Is used
almost exclusively for hauling coal
carts under ground.
In mines where the mule still Is
used extensively the animals are
brought to the surface frequently.
In rare instances, it is said, are the
mules kept in the pits for any
length of time. When work in the
mines is suspended, it is a general
custom to bring the animals '.o
the surface where tlicy ure Keyt
in pasture until the mines resume
operation.
The only animals known to breed
in the shafts and pits ars r.r.s and
mice. These littlo rodents, howevei.
ure often made pets by the miners
for the reason that their presence
indicates absence of gas pockets.
As long as tho mouse or rat slips
about a certain place, the miner
is certain to be free of the gas
danger.

AMERICAN (ilKIi BEATS
DITCH WITH COSTUME
Volendam, Holland, Oct. 27.—The!
people of this seaside village have j
two sources of Income, fishing, and'
the tourists who come to see the
medieval costumes of the villagers
and comment on their adherence to
old time customs. The men catch
the one, and the girls the other. For
Volendam has its belles, and the old
world attire of their forbears be
comes them well.
But this year hundreds of Amer
ican flappers have been among Vol-i
endam's visitors, and they have In
troduced chaos. The local girle have
uot been blind to the charms which
the svelte American girls seem to
hold for the young men of Volen
dam, and it is no uncommon sight
to see Volendam misses walking be-1
hind groups of American girls, mak
ing vain attempts to Imitate the
slouching, lackadaisical walk and
bloso air of assumed world-wisdom.
The debutante slouch, the long
pointed shoes with Trench heels, the
short, scant skirts and chic hats have
aroused the envy or the young Dutch
women and created a panic in the
village which may cease to be a
great mark for souvenirs If its fe
male population begins to copy
world fashion sheets.
The village elders are up In arms.
Tirades have been launched against
the follies and foibles of fashion
| T!ie iacemakers who fashion the
uuulnt white caps for women, the
manufacturers, who turn out the
wooden shoes, and the shopkeepers
who thrive on the quaintness of Vol
| cndam. are conducting an anti-tlap
, for campaign.
Of course there are Dutch flappers
I hut the Dutch girls generally have
| too much weight to simulate fashion
sheets successfully, and Dutch mo
distes lack the skill of American and
French dressmakers. So the Ameri
can girls and their extreme attire
have stirred little Dutch girls who
were never thrilled by the copy of
the mannlklns of Longchamps.
SCHOOL ENTERTAINMENT
The Annual entertainment of the
Skagwoy public school will be given
in the school gymnasium on Wednes
day evening. November 1, beginning
promptly at 7:30 o'clock.
This year's program will be a de
parture from that of the past few
years. Instead of the usual Hal
lowe'en carnival, there will be a sin
gle program which will be in the na
ture of a pageant, representing the
work of the Junior Red Cross or
ganization.
The school has held an enroll
ment of one hundred per cent, in the
| Juniors since we entered the "World
War in 1917. While little active
work is now done in comparison
J with that done during the war, nev
| ertheless the organization has kept
alive and in touch with the work
I that is being done by the larger
units.
The major part of the program
will consist of singing and folk
dances. An admission fee of fifty
cents will be charged. The funds are
;o be used in the sprihg to defray ex
penses of the representatives' to be
sent to Juneau to the Annual Meet
of the Schools of Southeastern Al
