A feller’s got to get away to rest awhile, you itnow, so the most important question is, where he goto' to g o ? With Europe shot to pieces, an’ her scenery gone to smash—besides, the rumpus didn't leave an overplus o f cash.

You can rest in Eden’s Gyarden oh our whole Atlantic coast —or journey to the Sunny South, the land I Jpve‘ the most, Go where the Old Pacific cools the Californy Belle — or, drift around the Yallerstone, where heaven flirts with hell, Y ob - omite, the fairyland, or Florida, the \quqeu or up among the Catakils to place you never seen.

ISAffESJUKEOFBlAtM Radio Operator on Doomed Ship , Grim Humorist .to Last. Talk* ss If He Were Going an uaric in Port instead o f to Bottom of 8 «a—Not * gout Saved From VeMeL New York .—The grim humor o f a wireless operator, who laughed at death and flashed bits of wit Into toe ether as his ship, the Norwegian steam­ er Grontoft, with thirty persons on board, wallowed and slowly sank dur­ ing a mid-Atlantic hurricane, was recorded on too--radio log of the Dan­ ish steamer Estonia. Each detail o f 'toe ship’s plight, each call for aid, was supplemented by the Jesting comment of toe radio man, whose identity is still unknown. He talked as if he were going on a lark in port instead of to the bottom of the sea, His last message, a disjoint­ ed one,, was a series o f witticism*— with death as the butt of the Joke. The Estonia, itself hard hit In the llQ-mile gale, made a valiant but un­ successful effort to reach toe Grontoft, which first sent out calls, for aid when about 700 miles east of Cape Ruce. TheyEstonia at that time was forty- eight miles west of the disabled Nor­ wegian find steaming Jp an opposite direction, Capt. Hans Jorgenson,-or­ dered his ship about and it steamed slowly toward the Grontoft. Meanwhile Radio Operator Hansen engaged toe operator o f the Grontoft to conversation. The latter sent out first the following—a'Stereotyped irony of toe seas. ' “God pity the poor sailors on a night like tois.?’ ■Then followed a series of “ ha, ha." “And say," he continued, "the old man thinks this calm will be over by nightfall. We sure need some breeze." An hour later an urgent call for aid was sent out by the Grontoft, and its operator jested again, - "Well, the steward is making sand­ wiches for the lifeboats. Looks like we were going on a picnic." Again a half hour later he sent; “The old wagon has a list like a run­ down heel. This is no weather for a fellow to be out to without an -um­ brella," “Hold on," returned toe Estonia’s wireless, “ we’ll be alongside soon," The Grontoft did not. reply until forty minutes later.' Then: “ We are sinking stern first.. Tlie boats are smashed. Can’t hold out any longer." ' - “ The skipper dictated that— He ought to know—where did I put my hat?—sorry we can’t wait for pressing business elsewhere— “ S------." • . - Six hours after j citing up toe first call from to e . Grontoft the 'Estonia reached Its reported position; and though It cruised about for four hours, failed to find even a trace of wreckage.
