ADVENTURES
of ULYSSES
(By St. Clair Austin)
Ulysses, or Odyssauc, was a Greek
sailor who went to Troy to fight
for his friend, Prince Menelaus,
whose wife Helen had gone to Troy
with Paris, the Trojan prince. Troy
.vas a great city of great riches over
in Asia Minor. Its- king was Priam.
Ulysses bad agreed to help Mene
laus if anything hapened to him,
but he had married since then and
he had a son named Telemaehus
who was just a baby when Menelaus,
the Prince of Sparta asked him to
come to war. Ulysse3 disliked the
idea of going to war and leaving his
faithful wife, Penelope and his baby
;on, Telemaehus. So he pretended
lie was crazy. He got his plow and
began sowing salt, which made ev
trybody think he was crazy. Ulysses
xpccted not to go to war if the peo
ple thought he was crazy. But
me clever man, much against
Penelope’s wishes, took Telemaehus,
ihe baby, and put him in font of the
tlow. Ulysses would run over him
with the ‘plow if he were crazy, and
,f he were not he would turn aside
the plcw, anil so he did and they
found he was not crazy. Therefore
lie had to go to war much against
his own will.
The journey to Troy only took a
ow days anil the war lasted ten
years. Both sides suffered great
losses, but Achilles, the great Greek
warrior, fought almost until the
■lose of the war. He was killed by
Paris who slipped up on him while
he Was talking to Meneiaus. Achilies
was invulnerable except on the heel
where Paris shot him.
Through Ulysses’ cleverness, a
great wooden horse was erected that
could hold manv men. The Greeks
pretended to leave in their ships
and left the horse near Troy as a
peace offering. The Trojans were
nil asleep the warriors came out o,
the wooden horse and sacked the
riches of Trov anil then set fire to
the buildings.'Troy was burning and
the Greeks killing these who were
rot burned to death.
For some ot tne snips me
lasted a few days and others be
came lost by the anger of the gods
whe sided with Tro.v. Ulysses had
many adventures such as meeting
Circe, the enchantress, on her islands
where she changed many of his mei
ui swine. She almost changed hin
into a f x, Ik cause she turned them
into the animals their characters
resembled-. Finally. Ulysses main
her change his men into their propel
forms. Then he met the Cyclops \\h(
had but one great eye in the middle
(f his forehead. Ulysses deceives
him by putting him to- sleep witr
some sweet wine. Ulysses put oul
his great eye by putting a burning
live stake in Polyphemus’, tlv.
Cyclops’ eve. Then all his men ex
cept those killed by Polyphemus ii
his cave escaped. Polyphemus hearc
the shouts of the men as they push
ed off from shore, and he hurled
large stones through the air which
splashed close beside the ships
drenching the men in them. Ulysses
also encountered the Sirenes, the
uTTe-i
half woman. They sang so well
that it tempted any man to swim
out to the island from his ship.
Ulysses bade his men put wax in
their ears and bind him tight to the
mast so he might not jump from
the 'hip and be eaten by the Sirens,
lie* struggled so at the mast when
tbev reared the island, that they
had to tie him tighter. Then they
moved farther away from these is
lands.
They had a few more adventures

OFFICERS NAB CHICKEN !
BEFORE IT IS COOKED
- . - J
Believing that a campaign promise
of several years ago—“A chicken in
every pot’’—was specifically applic
able to their particular case, two
“young men about town’’ took a
rooster and a hen from the home of
George Simpson and proceeded to
fix them up in the manner that ali
fat chickens should be fixed
It seems that Mr. Simpson missed
his two chicks Sunday morning and
forthwith proceeded uptown and j
told Sheriff Wood and Chhicf Free-1
man about his shortage. With Sher
lock Holmes effectiveness the two
officers went to the home of Henry
Collins on Kings Creek and there they
found one, the rooster, in the pot
and evidence of the hen having been
killed, cooked and eaten.
The two believers in political
prophesy as expected, denied having
anything to do with Mr. Simpsons
chicken shortage but Emmet Bell
and Lester Bowen were brought to,
jail (against their will) and the |
rooster was left a-boilin’ in the pot. j
CHEVROLET PEOPLE ARE
AT HIGH PRODUCTION j
DETROIT, Mich. Feb. 19—With a
payroll almost equal to its all-time;
high, Chevrolet entered February,
well on the way toward capacity)
operation, M. E. Coyle, general;
manager, announced here today. Pro
duction increased more than 50 per
cent during the last week of January
—from 2,141 cars Jan. 24 to 3,304
on Jan. 31—and coordination of ac
tivities in the* 21 domestic plants was
proceeding at a rate which indicated
steady progress from this time on.
Dealers throughout the country,
Mr Coyle said, will soon be making
immediate delivery of any model de
sired.
Payrolls on Jan. 31 totaled 53,203
persons, a„s compared with 33,727 at
the corresponding period last year,
the payroll increase for the week
was nearly 2,400 persons. These
figures include only the workers cn
Chevrolet’s own payroll. Inclusion of
Fisher Body workers producing
b dies for the new Chevrolet would
i practically double that total.
! “Our own direct payroll,” said
; Mr. Coyle, “breaks all Chevrolet

1 and I- tire largest we have ever had
at this lime of year. A? a matter ol
fact, it is within 3,000 of our great
