House Passes Wage Bill Despite questions as to whether the bill was constitutional in Its present form, the house of representatives passed the Carter twicemonthly wage payment bill, following amendments which ex< ipted several classes of labor, which permitted more frequent payments than twice monthly, and which removed the imprisonment penalty for violation that has been attached. Sixteen negative votes were cast. The amendments were all introduced by Representative Sherman D. Callander, of Detroit. Criticism was aimed especially at ! the section that had contained the J Imprisonment penalty. Several members charged that inclusion of a clause to Imprison for debt made the act unconstitutional, while the re- ; moval ef that clause in the opinion of , others, extracted "the teeth" neces- [ sary to make it workable, and that in the form it was finally passed it , was virtually only a scrap of paper.

CAUSES OF MENTAL BREAKDOWN •w* THANKS to. numerous newspaper and muguzine articles, heulth talks, and Instruction In the public schools, It Is now more generally recognized than ever before that the human body is a machine which must be wisely treated and well taken care of If It 1» to do good work. But the mind Is still regarded by most people as something strangely mysterious and beyond understanding. In the romantic novels which onr grandmothers read, the heroine waa always supposed to have "brain fever," whatever that was, after the shock of desertion of her lover, abandonment by her husband, or whatever other trials the author subjected her to. The Idea still prevails that mental conditions ure due largely, if not entirely, to iO"e, grief, separation or other purely ^motional states. As a matter of fact, the workings of the brain are influenced by the same condition as those affecting other structures of the body. Poisoning, either from within or without the body, and in^ufficlerit or improper nourishment are responsible for most cases of mental breakdown. Just as they are responsible for most serious affections of the heart, the kidneys or the stomach. A careful study of 210 patients in a hospital for mental cases showed that 35, or 16 per cent, of the cases were due to direct infections of the brain, causing some form of meningitis. These infections came through the mouth, the nose, or the ear, and were preceded, of course, by Infection of some part of the body. In 7¼ per cent, the mental disorders were due to infections in more distant structures, such as the teeth, the tonsils, the gall bladder, or the appendix. In these cases, the Infection was carried to the brain net directly but by the blood current. Ten per cent of the cases were due to the use of alcohol or some other drug. Twenty-six per cent were due to some defect in the constitution al make-up, that Is. to some deficiency at birth of the brain or some other part of the body. Five per cent were due to old age, softening of the brain, etc.; 37 per cent to gland deficiency, such as defects of the thyroid inland In cretins; 10 per cent to defective food, prolonged physical work, either in the hot sunshine or under abnormal heat conditions, to childbirth, and simitar conditions. Only 15 cases, or about 7 per cent, were due to mental shocks, unbearable situations, excessive emotions, or great sorrow. The normal human being Is so constituted, mentally and physically, that he does not give way under mental strain or natural emotion. We all of us have our trials. If we were not able to stnnd them, most of the human race would be Insane. W H A T CAUSES BLINDNESS? THE United States census report for 1922 shows that there are 52,- 567 blind persons in this country. In 35,78¾ of these, definite Information was obtained as to the cause of their blindness. in 18,818 cases, or 38 per cent, blindness was caused by some disease of the eye, itself, such as cataract. In 5.G23 curew. or 15 per cent, blindness was the result of some general disease. The principal diseases which may cause blindness are measles scarlet fever, diabetes, meningitis, influenza. Bright's disease, lyphoid fever. and smallpox. Accidents were responsible for 5,913, or 16 per rent. Atrophy of the optic nerve, a mysterious condition in which the nerve nf the eye shrivels up and becomes useless, caused 1,765 cases, or 5 per cent. Ophthalmia neonatorum, or sore eyes of new-born babies, caused 1,198 cases, or 3 per cent. This disease is gradually disappearing owing to the passage In most states of laws requiring the use of a weak silver nitrate solution in the eyes Immediately after birth. Trachoma, or granulated lids, as It Is sometimes called, caused about the same number of cases as ophthalmia neonatorum. Poisoning by wood alcohol and other poisons was responsible for a considerable number of cases. , Since the causes of blindness are so numerous, the prevention of blindness necessarily covers a wide variety of subjects. Blindness following contagious diseases can only be prevented by preventing the diseases which cause It, but accidents can be very largely prevented by proper precautions. The National Safety council, by a widespread educational campaign In factories and workshops daring th* past ten years, has greatly reduced the number of accident* to the eyes, SJ^elds for drilling, filing and grinding machines, the use of goggles in all work In which the eyes might be injured, and the nse of protective screens for blast furnaces, welding apparatus and other operations requiring strong light and high degrees of heat have greatly reduced the number of eye sect dent a.

Mineral From Greenland Trade of the United States with Greenland, says* the National City Bank of New York, runs at the rati* of nearly a quarter of a million dollars a year, and has aggregated approximately $2,000,000 in the last dozen years. Nearly all of our trade with Greenland consists of Imports, and our own purchases from that Island are chiefly composed of cryolite produced by an American corporation from a mine near Ivlgtut on the southwestern coast. This peculiar mineral deposit, cryolite, discovered by the Danes 130 years ago, is the biggest known deposit of this material In the world, and the fact that we have a limited supply of this material In the state of Colorado has not prevented the American company, which controls the Ivlgtut mine under a concession from the Danish government, from bringing many thousands of tons from the western coast of Greenland, about 2.000 miles, to the eastern ports of the United States, chiefly Philadelphia.

History By EL^IO SCOTT W A T S O N W h e r e t h e P o w e r o f t h e S i o u x W a s B r o k e n . In is?4 there was established near the KMI rinijii agency m itie northwestern i-orni-r df Nebraska a military post uiih-ii is historically important because around it centered the events which broke forever the power of the .Siouv and taeir ullie.s, the Northern Cheyenne. hurt Uobmsan was its name ami lis presence in the midst of the (Jghda Sioux kept thousands of them 1'roiu .joining the hosLiles at the opening of the Sioux war of 187*5 77. Near it in October, 1S7(3, Genera) Crook further clipped their win^s by surrounding the camp of old Chief lied Cloud and disarming and dismounting iiis warriors. From it the next month Col. Ranald S. Mackenzie led the expedition which defeated Chief Dull Knife and his Cheyennes. destroyed their village on the Crazy Woman's fork of the Powder river and scored the first real success in the campaiym. There, too, Crazy Horse, the ynun# war chief of the Oglalas, fell mortally wounded when he resisted un attempt to imprison him. Perhaps the most dramatic Incident connected with the history of Fort Robinson was the outbreak of the Cbevennes in 1879. Dull Knife's Cheyennes had been sent to Oklahoma but they hated their new home and Jumped the reservation. After successfully eluding pursuit for several hundred miles, they were finally captured and taken to Fort Kobinson. When told they must return to Oklahoma, they again attempted to break away. Many of them were shot down as they tried to escape from the fort, the remainder were recaptured and ajrain they were returned to the hated Southland. So Fort Kobinsnn marked the end ot the Cheyenne* as a warrior people, just as it did the Sioux. The usefulness of Fort Robinson passed away with the end of the Indian wars. Today it is a place of ghosts—ghosts of the redtnen and white who once helped make It famous. Near it are buried two renowned scouts—California Joe and Raptlste Gander, the "Little Rat" of Siouv war days, both victims of an assassin. Somewhere near the fort, too, sleeps Crazy Horse in a secret burying place of which it has been said: ".lust as the grave of General Custer on the barren hdl above the Little I'.li; Horn was the high-water mark of Indian supremacy in the trans- Missouri region, so the forgotten grave of Crazy Horse marks the ebb from which no tide has ever risen," Low-cost Transportation Star The Quality Leader of the Low^riced Field FROM the beginning the Star Car has established a newer, higher standard of engineering in the low priced field, being the first to include the following quality features: Forced Feed Motor Lubrication Silent Chain Front-end Drive S i n g l e - p l a t e Dry-diac Clutch * Semi-elliptic S p r i n g s , front and rear 6.

Romantic Belle Point and Prosaic Smith but bss robbed toy ds)s*«Blnf of «p' <*asj!d be needing mending after a aamtlaMntal phase.** > I**™ like that!" It was one of the early French explorers of Arkansas who gave to this lovely spot on the Arkansas river the romantic name of Belle I'olnt and there many years later was built a fort to which was attached the very prosaic name of Smith. The site for the post was chosen b.v MaJ. Stephen I>mg, the explorer, in November, 1S17, and when the first little stockade was erected later It was named for Brig. Gen. Thomas A. Smith of Virginia, a veteran of the War of 1812. The first commandant at.Fort Smith was Mn.j. William Bradford of Company A of the Rifle regiment, composed of men who had fought with "Old Hickory" Jackson at the battle of New Orleans. Bradford was succeeded in l^'-J by Col. Matthew Arbuckle, founder of Fort Gibson, Okla. In lS-'is the government decided to erect substantial fortifications at the place and plans for It were drawn by Voubanne, the famous French fortification expert. Temporary quarters were erected by Capt. W. G. Belknap which were occupied by the troops until four years later when the new buildings were completed. The commandant from 1S41 to 181." was Col. Zachary Taylor and Fort Smith is one of the several forts which claim to be the site of the elopement of his daughter, Sarah Knox Taylor, with Lieut. Jefferson Davis, although history has not yet decided just what were the facts connected with that romantic affair. As the importance of Fort Smith Increased the government selected the site for a new fort and purchased 300 acres for the reservation. Within this new fort several two-story buildings were erecttd but subsequently all except one were destroyed by tire. ThJ* one has particular Interest because it was used as a United States dist.lct court and Its basement as a Jail for prisoners. Here the famous Judge I. C. Barker, in the turbulent days of Indian territory in the '70's and 'SO'* sentenced hundreds of squaw men and territorial outlaws to death until the name of Fort Smith and Judge Parker became synonymous for probably the speediest «nd most summary Justice ever meted out in the history of this country. Almost from the beginning of Tort Smith a settlement was growing up within the shadows of Its walls and the town of Fort Smith was incorporated away back In 1842. The government reservation and fort were given to the city of Fort Smith in 1884 and are now a public park. What kind of rubber is built into* your overshoes ?

Starvation, thirst, exposure ani acute physical exhaustion had done their work.

Body Cased in Silt. And Nature, whose forces Floyd defied time and again in his continual search for the beautiful cavern which might draw sightseers from tt\e ends of the earth and make him rich, had been day by day tightening the unbreakable clutch In which she seized him. Only his foot was fast at first, bat when they reached him mud and silt and small boulders had filtered | through the crevices above him and 1 formed a solid sheath about bis lifeless form. Electric Bulb Was Cold. There were no sounds from the patient, no respiration, no movement of any kind. The electric light that was placed by the early rescuers on Collins' neck was found around at the top of his chest. The bulb was o u t "What was the cause of death, doctor?" someone asked Doctor Hazlitt. "He died from exhaustion; acute physical exhaustion, exposure, starvation and thirst," Doctor Hazlitt replied, and Doctor Francis confirmed the opinion with a nod. Floyd Collins had been a cave explorer since he was a little boy. He was born on a farm five miles from Sand cave, where the Collins family still lives, and as nearly as his father can remember Floyd has seldom been away from the cave country. When Just big enough to handle a plow, his mule on day sank to Its knees In what has since been known as Mule cave and Floyd's cave enthusiasm was started. For three weeks Floyd had been working on Sand cave, hla father says, Some of those among the early rescuers who talked with Floyd said be described his new-found cavern as "the most beautiful I have ever seen." With the finding of Collins' lifeless form It was realized that Collins' dream of three weeks ago was a presentiment which had come true. "I dreamed I was caught in rock and the angels came and took me away," he had told his stepmother, Mrs. J a n e Collins, three weeks ago, after having announced to her that he had before him two days of the most dangerous cave exploring he had ever attempted. Mrs. Collins had urged Floyd to abandon his Intentions t o explore Sand cave. How Collins Was Trapped. Floyd Collins was thirty-six years old and was unmarried. With his sixty-eight-year-old father, Lee Collins, and a brother, Homer, he lived five miles from the scene of his ent r a p m e n t at Sand cave. Floyd and his father were Joint owners of Crystal cave, a subterranean system of chambers and galleries of a type with Mammoth cave, bnt not so extensive. In 1016 Floyd discovered Crystal cave when he went to search for a rabbit trap that had been dragged from the place of Its setting Into one of the thousand water sink holes which abound through this locality. Squirming down into this sink hole, Floyd dropped into one of the*vau!ted rooms of Crystal cave. This entire district Is honeycombed with cave lands. Practically all of the underground caverns interlink, and e n t r a n c e to most of those that have been discovered has been, originally, by way of the water sink hole route. Explored Many Caves, Before and since his discovery of Crystal cave. Floyd Collins devoted himself to cave explorations. He did no other work. For days at a time he would lose himself in the devious underground channels, sleeping and eating within the dank, lightless depths. It w a s while trying to find another cave t h a t might be commercialized for tourist visitors that Collins became imprisoned at noon Friday, January 30. Homer Collins (center), brother of Floyd Collins, In s t a t e of exhaustion, leaving the entrance to Sand cave in Kentucky after one of his many efforts to relieve Floyd, who was trapped in the cave by the fall of a boulder on tils foot. The place of Collins" e n t r a p m e n t i wus miscalled a cave. It uctually was just a deep, corkscrew-shaped sink hole, which meanders through a length of 180 feet to a depth from the surface of about seventy feet. According to the stories Collins told those who first reached him in the rescue attempt, the channel opened at its lowest point into a pit. or room, which, he estimated, had a depth of about ninety feet and was about twenty or thirty feet across. He lu.d maneuvered a passage around the rim of this s u b t e r r a n e a n pit, he told, and was burrowing back Into the sink passage, p r e p a r a t o r y to drawing to the surface, when he dislodged the boulder that pinioned his lef; ankle and made him a prisoner. Working on Speculation. The sink hole Is on the land of C. Doyle, a farmer, living nine miles from Cave City. Doyle had arranged with three other men, including Floyd Collins, for a survey of cavern possibilities on the farm. Floyd was to do the exploring. In the event that he found any promising leads, he was to be rewarded with a one-fourth Interest in the cave. Doyle and the other two men were to finance the enterprise. For three weeks Floyd had burrowed In the sink or drain hole. Most' of the stretches of the passage were so tight that they could be negotiated only by squirming on the stomach. Several "squeezes," as they are called In these parts, were encountered. These sections of the channel are shaped like the letter S and could be passed only by body twisting that would do credit to n contortionist. Elsewhere in the drain course the passage was In the form of vertical drops, on eight feet deep and of such a n a t u r e that it could be maneuvered only by a head-foremost dive. Collins believed t h a t if he could follow the passage to a sufficient depth he would find e n t r a n c e to a cave or system of caves. But for two weeks he was able to progress only a hundred feet Into the tunnel. There one of the "squeezes" was so narrow that not even his n a t u r a l agility enabled h l r to pass it. During this period of his explorations, Collins roomed at the Doyle home. He told Mr. Doyle he would find a wider passage through this "squeeze." Against the advice of Doyle, who feared that a detonation would collapse the walls of the entire tunnel, Collins set off a charge of dynamite. H e found that the explosion had justified his theory. Crawling back to the tightest "squeeze," he cleared a path through the blast debris and was enabled to burrow deeper. Rut not until Friday morning. January 30, was Collins able to penetrate to the bottom of the sink hole. Friday morntne. before e n t e r i n g the tunnel, he mentioned to Mrs. Doyle that he had dreamed he wns trapped underground and that "angels were alttine all around me." Co.lius started cut that Friday morning equipped with an electric flash stick and a coll of rope. Pinioned by Huge Stone, He did not know the size of the boulder that fell upon his ankle. The passage In which he was made raptive w a s at an angle of 45 degrees. His body fitted snugly Into t h e rock-bound niche, a ledge of limestone across his chest preventing even the raising of his hands. All of Friday afternoon and night he was pinioned, helpless, and with his plight unguesaed by those above the ground. Then S a t u r d a y Doyle and several ©then went to the mouth of the sinkhole and found traces which proved that Floyd had entered the day before. A cripple boy, son of a farmer neighbor, was p e r s u a d e d to crawl Into tiie passage and investigate. The child squirmed half the length of the tunnel. He got within calling distance of Collins. He returned to the surface and reported thut Floyd had cried out from the depths of the channel t h a t he wa*-' pinioned there by a rock upon his left ankle. For several hours no one could be found willing to a t t e m p t to crawl to Floyd. Finally Homer, one of Floyd's three brothers, undertook the risk. Homer reached Floyd and obtained some idea of the n a t u r e of the entrapment. T h e snug fit of the rock passage made It impossible for Homer to reach a hand even so far as Floyd's waist He could not see the rock that held Floyd. And none of the later resciv workers was able to see or reach it. because of the closeness of the tunnel embrace. Friends Rush to Rescue. News of Floyd's predicament was spread through the c o u n t r y s i d e Dozens of natives, all of them friends of the entombed man, hurried to the scene. Some made rescue sallies and many, after prolonged periods underground, returned to describe relief measures they had administered. Saturday and Sunday the efforts at rescue were only half-hearted. Those who did crawl as far as the niche that held Collins succeeded In doing nothing but loosening small rocks and particles of soil that still further cramped the passageway. Monday Johnny Gerald, one of Floyd's closest friends, and Lieut. Ben Wells, West Point g r a d u a t e and m a t h e m a t i c s Instructor at Ogden college, reached t h e scene. T h e s e two put forth sincere and laborious efforts. With other helpers they cleared part of the rock and sand litter out of the tunnel. B u t they were unable to accomplish a n y t h i n g In the way of getting Floyd out of the viselike rock grip. Reporter Visits Collins. William B u r k e Miller, a youngster reporter on a Louisville paper, was sent to t h e scene with Instructions to participate In the rescue work Hi« editor selected him because his slight s t a t u r e and build would enable him to wriggle t h r o u g h the passageway with an agility t h a t a heavier man could not accomplished. Miller m a d e more actual visits to Collins than any other worker, except Gerald. H e spent hours with Collins" head in his lap. He poured nourishment down Collins' t h r o a t and even participated in the man's spoken prayers. Wednesday morning, F e b r u a r y 4. »r three o'clock, Miller administered food and drink to Collins for the last time At this hour, also, he carried light wires into the tunnel and placed a 25-ampere. carbon-filament globe under Collins' shirt at t h e small of his back. This light w a s Intended to add a trifle of w a r m t h and, undoubtedly contributed largely to t h e man's resistance during t h e days that followed. Within an hour after Miller's l a v expedition down the tunnel the first of a series of cave-ins occurred. About fifty feet of t h e passageway, at the lower end. w a s choked with fallen rock and sand and mud. L a t e r att e m p t s to reach the entombed man through the tunnel thus, were blocked. After two days of fruitless effort at t h e tunnel, the shaft method of rescue was conceived and work of excavation was begun. SAY "BAYER ASPIRIN" and INSIST!

LENAWEE COUNTY CORN GROWER SETS RECORD The honor of having produced the largest corn crop in Michigan last year probably goes to O. F . Ridge, of Deerheld, Lenawee County, according to C. H i t h e r , crops extension specialist at M. A. C. and secretary of the Michigan Crop Improvement Association. Kidge harvested seven thousand bushels from his 10b acres of corn, an average of nearly seventy bushels to the acre. Otto Wegner, of Riga, won the state honors for yield on a live acre plot last fall, b u t Mr. Ridge's total production is considered a record for the year, hotli in total volume a n d in average yield over a big acreage. "This yield is unusually remarkable in view of the fact that 192t was an adverse corn year," says Mr. Rather. "]t would come near to being a record in any season. The state average last w a r was only 2ti bushels to the acre." "Mr. Ridge"s unusual crop is attributed mosth to go«d seed, although good soil and careful cultural practices played an i m p o r t a n t part. T h e seed planted was Clement's W h i t e c a p , a wi tl adapted variety. • o - — V I L L A G E E L E C T I O N Notice is hereby given to the (Qualified I-'-lectors of the village of Pinckney State of Michigan that the next ensuing annual village election will be hi Id at the town Hall withf.n said villain* on M O N D A Y , M A R C H 9 M O N D A Y , M A R C H 9, A.

Under the disfigurement, Mrs W a s h i n g t o n and myself ever afterwards preferred It h a n g i n g in my bedroom, where Its wounded, unfinished and apparently neglected condition eecape frequent unpleaaant remark. Any c h a n g e w r o u g h t In the picture beyond repairing the hole would be the reverse of improvement to my eye, 1 am happy above measure in h a v i n g it. wounded and apparently n e g l e c t e d aa It la, rather than Incur the penalty of Its absence. Washington, it is evident, was loath to part with the portrait, even temporarily. Presumably, also, he had little confidence In Charles Carter? ability to have it restored. When James Sharpies, the English painter, went to' Mount Vernon to make portraits of Washington and nls wife, it was a different story. The portrait of Mary Washington went to England and through Sharpies and Robert Cary, Washington's English agent and personal friend, it was tamed over to an artist named Bird, who was a Royal Academician and one of the ablest portrait painters living. Why this portrait of Washington's mother never got back to America is one of the unanswered questions of history. It is a matter of conjecture that after Washington's death Interest in the portrait on this side of the Atlantic grew less. It Is guessed thai Sharpies paid Bird and that Cary reimbursed Sharpies. At any rate the portrait ultimately went into the hands of Cary. General Grant, when in England, ex turn of these paintings (this and the Sharpies portraits of the , WaahlngtouB) to America, c o n g r e s s will, h* doubts not, unanimously do Its duty In the matter. The painting of Mary W a s h i n g t o n hat especial claims as the only portrait of her known to exist, (jeneral Grant had hoped that Mlddleton s portrait w a i free for disposition, he hears therefore with regret that family a r r a n g e m e n t s prevent for a few years this desired accomplishment General Oram Lege to repeat his bernmlng "ens* of the honor done him, as also to express his entire confidence that at the proper time Miss Edwardes family will g i v e due weight to his countrymen's natural wish to possess the gem, happily, for America, under her family control. The Mlddleton portrait of Mnrj Washington goes far to substantiate '-•'nshlngton's claim as to his mother's beauty. There are few allusions In writing as to her personal Appearance before her marriage. And here is an i*ld thing: a letter found In a deserted mansion near the York river during the Civil war, 140 years after Its writ ing: WmsBurg, ye 7th of Octr, 1722 Dear Sukey: Madame Ball of Lancaster and Her Sweet Molly have gone Horn Mama thinks Molly the Comellest Maiden She K n o w i . She la about 16 yrs old, is taller than Me. 1« verry Sensable. Modest and Loving Her Hair Is like unto Flax. Her Eyes are the color of Yours and her Chekes are like May Blossoms. 1 wish You could See Her But Mary Washington was much more than beautiful. Lawrence Wash ington of Chotank, toward the close of the Eighteenth century, wrote this: "I was often here (at the home on the Rappahannock) with George—his playmate, schoolmate, and young man's companion. Of the mother I was more afraid than of my own parents; sh> awed me fh the midst of her j^fndness; and even now, when time has whitened my locks, and I am the grandfather of a second generation. 1 could not behold that majestic woman without feelings it Is Impossible to describe." When the Revolution began Washington persuaded his mother to move from her estate on rbe Rappahannock to Fredericksburg. She declined the offer of a home with her daughter. able, religious mother pursued ths even tenor of her way, the same In dustrjous, efficient, thrifty Housewife and farm manager as ever. "I am not surprised at what George has done." she said, "he wag always 'i good boy." April 14, 1789, Charles Thomson, secretary of congress, arrived at Mount Vernon with official certificates that Washington had been elected the first President of the new nation. Washington prepared to accompany Thomson to New York, then the seat of the national government. That afternoon he rode to Fredericksburg to •say good-by to his mother. She was then past eighty and wasting from the effects of a painful and incurable disease (cancer). He found her feeble In body, but as ever strong in spirit and bright in intellect. After an affectionate greeting between them Washington said to his mother: "The people, Madarn, have been pleased, with the most flattering UDUnimlty, to elect me to the chief magistracy of the United States; but before I can assume the functions of that office I have come to bid you an affectionate farewell. So soon as {he public business, which roust necessarily be encountered In arranging d new government, can be disposed of. I shall hasten to Virginia—" "You will see me no more," she said, interrupting him. "My great age. and the disease which Is rapidly approaching my vitals, warn me that 1 shall not be long In this world. 1 trust in God I am somewhat prepared for a better. But go. George, fulfill the high destinies which Heaven appears to assign you. Go, my son, and may that Heaven's and your mother's blessing be with you always." It Is known that Washington felt that he was then seeing his mother for the last time. It is said that he put his head on her shoulder and wept. For It Is not least in the greatness of George Washington that he appreciated his mother. And it Is said that she clasped feeble arms about his neck and mingled her tears with his—and she was not a woman given to tears. Let us hope that her teart were not all of sorrow at parting. And it was the final parting of a great son with a great mother—his best friend. She died August 25. 1788. Her death was felt as a solemn public event and so observed throughout the land. Mary Washington was never known to show a feminine weakness except one. She had an unconquerable fear during thunderstorms. And that was because, soon after marriage, an In timate woman friend sitting beside her was killed by a stroke of lightning What does a man owe to his mother? What did George Washington owe to his mother? What does the United States of America owe to Mary Washington? NEWS FROM THE STAH CAPITAL Bill Would Enlist State's Aid In Fighting Corn Borer Pes*.

Consideration of the bill was not held up pending introduction of a substitute bill at present being drawn in the attorney-general's department.

Reginald Denny's wonderful swimming and diving ability came into play in his latest Universal-Jewel producion, "Sporting Youth," which opens next Saturday at the opera house. Although the picture is essentially a story of automobile racing, there is one spectacular scene where Denny dives from a cliff into the ocean and 6wims several hundred yards to a motorboat. Denny is rated as one of the aquatic aces of Hollywood and there was some talk last summer of his attempting the swim from the Southern California coast to Catalina Island, a distance of thirty-five miles. Denny was working on the racing picture during the summer months, however, and the marathon swim was never staged. Shortly after he finished the picture he was seriously injured in an automobile accident and tied to his bed for many weeks. "Sporting Youth" is a high-powered story from the pen of Byron Morgan, who became famous several years ago through his automobile racing stories which were p u n i s h e d in the Saturday Evening Post. Several of Hie stories were filmed, featuring the late Wallace Reid. This pictvire required several months to make, involving location trips to Monterey, Del Monte, San Luis Obiso and Balboa Beach. H a r r y A. Pollard, who made the famous "Leather Pushers" series, directed the filming of the new Denny special. The cast includes Laura La Plante, Hallam Cooley, Malcolm Denny, Lucille Ward, Frederick Vroom, H e n r y Harrows, L. J. OConnor, Rolfe Sedan, C. L. Sherwood and William A. Carroll.

President Cotilldge'^ determined upiiusitiun to the unitization ol the army, uuv.v and puwial air services, as proposed by the Curry bill, has* been officially disclosed to t h e hou.se military committer by Secretary Wilbur. Secretary Wilbur and Keur Admiral S. S. lioblnson, commander of the buttle fleer, both appeared hero re the committee an witnesses in opposition to the project. Mr. Wilbur told the committee that President Ooolidge hud authorized him lo s t a t e the opposition of the President to t h e plan for the creation of an independent department of aeronautics a s not needed. l i e asserted that the British experiment involved in the creation of a unified air service h a s not been completely satisfactory. Criticisms of the British plan, us reported in British newspapers a n d magazines, a r e bein^ placed before t h e committee. Secretary Wilbur said that he and all qualified naval officers believe the divorcement of naval aviation from the navy would be fraught with grave consequences for national defense. Asked about duplication of efforts and expense involved in separate army, navy and postal air services Secreiury Wilbur replied that if w a s .he constant effort of the Navy department to avoid ail ssaeli duplication. He expressed the opinion flint ilie- aim* of economy and efficiency sought by the Curry m e a s u r e could I*? better obtained by co-operation between the army and naval air services Through their amalgamation. Mr. Wilbur objected in particular 10 one provision of the bill which, he thought, would require the navy to surrender to the proposed new depart meat of aeronautics large quantities ot material and ships now used in connection with the operation of nuval aircraft. He declared that if the bill is to be enacted it should be a m e n d e d s[>ecirioally to release these items. The aviation properties of the Oavy, he said, a r e valued at $42.Uoo,")7li and the navy is endeavoring to Increase its air defense as far us practicable or necessary. He felt that extravagant statements with respect to the utility of aircraft were being made to the country, misleading both to the public and lo congress, and asserted that extravagant statements of this character should not be used as a basis for action by congress in drafting a national avlarion progrum. What the Farmers Want of Uncle Sam PR E S I D E N T COOMDC.E's agricultural conference, headed by former Gov. Robert D. Carey of Wyoming, h a s made its final report on conditions and recommendations for legislation. Briefly, Becoming to the conference, agriculture "needs continuing constructive and sympathetic leadership In the administration of governmental departments as they affect t h e fanner*' varied interests." The one outstanding suggestion for the !ietterment of the fanner is That he should be given, "through the application of the protective tariff system, the full benefits of American m a r k e t s . " "The American farmer cannot compete with imported agricultural pm ! mis. created through cheap in re; gn la bor and Inwer s t a n d a r d s of Ihinjj. nor can he compete In foreign markets for the sale of his products a.t world price levels created by supply and demand arising out of foreign productive standa r d s and foreign buying power," the report said. A co-operative marketing system, fostered and supervised by the government. Is recommended. A special board would bo created for this work. better credit a r r a n g e m e n t s and a readjustment of freight rates are suggested. The conference made its report to the President at breakfast at t h e White House. T h e guests of the President for t h e occasion w e r e : Secretary Gore of the Department of Agriculture, members of the conference, Senator Curtis, Republican leader of the senate ; Representative Lnngworth, majority leader of the house, and Senators Charles L. McN'ary (Ore.), Henry B. McKlnley (III.), Uepublicmis: Ellison I> Smith (S. C ) , Democrat, of the senate committee on agriculture, and Representatives Gilbert N. liaugen (la.) Kred S. Purnell (ln<l.). .1. N. Tlncher ( K a n ) , and r'rank Clague (Minn.). Republicans, and .James B. As.vrll (I,a.). Democrat, of the house I'onrnil t-*e on a gricul tu r e Senator < ;eorge W. Norn* of Nebraska, chairman of the senate committee on agriculture, was invited but did not attend. The conference had this to say OH tariff rates : "While the conference is not making specific recommendations at this time relative to tariff legislation, it nevertheless wishes to be understood as sympathetically recognizing the need of protecting our various agricultural commodities by adequate tariffs on foreign products that come into compel ition with them." Peace Union Would Amend Constitution NOW that the Conference on the Cause and Cure of War la over, with its findings substantially Indorsed by President Coolidge, the Women's Peace Cnion gets into the limelight. This organization, which has opentnl headquarters here, would stop w a r by means of a constitutional amendment. They do not expect to accomplish much at this session of congress but expect to he in shape for a n aggressive fight next December. Mrs. Gertrude Franchof Tone of Niagara Falls, N. Y.. has charge of the new headquarters. She is assisted by Miss Edwina Straton Babcock, Nantucket. Muss., novelist, and Miss Mary Gertrude Kendall of Baltimore, Md. The constitutional amendment which the women seek to have congress propose, eventually, to the states, reads as follows : "1. War for any purpose shall be illegal, and neither the United States nor any s t a t e shall prepare for, declare, engage in, carry on. or in any way sanction w a r or other armed conflict, expedition, invasion or undertaking within or without the United States or any s t a t e ; and "Neither the United States n o r any state or subdivision thereof, nor any territory, corporation, association or person within the jurisdiction of the United States shall organize, train, maintain, hire, manufacture, purchase, employ, use. or authorize the use of any army, militia, or other armed forces, or of armed ships, airplanes, machines or other a r m a m e n t s ; nor shall the United States or any state or subdivision thereof, or any territory, corporation, association or person within the jurisdiction of the United States levy tuxes or appropriate or expend funds for any such purpose. "'J. After one year from the ratification of this amendment, the manufacture, sale, transportation, possession, or use. of arms, munitions or other articles, implements or chemicals designed for the destruction of human life, within or the Importation thereof into, the exportation thereof from, the United States and all territory subject to the jurisdiction thereof, is hereby prohibited. "S. All provisions of the Constitution and of the articles In addition thereto and amendment thereof, which ar»> in conflict with or inconsistent with this article a r e hereby rendered null and void and of no effect. "4. T h e Congress and the several states shall have concurrent power to enact appropriate legislation to give effect to this article." To Lessen the Cruelty of Fur-Trapping TLIE cruelty of -the steel t r a p device for catching fur-hearing animals is to he the target for a nation-wide campaign by humanitarians and n a t u r e lovers. T h e object is the abolition of this needless form of torture of wild animals. Announcement by Edward Breck, commander United States navy, retired, naturalist anri historian, that he has completed an Investigation of t h e methods prevalent in the fur Industry which is to be the basis for a great campaign h a s stirred h u m a n e organizations and nature societies. Commander Breck. at a meeting of the Humane Education society here, scored the apathy a n d indifference of the public to this prevalent form of cruelty to animals, which he branded a s " a n outrage upon decency and upon ethics. "• T h e ultimate aim of the campaign la federal legislation, although t h e immediate goal la s t a t e control of. this alleged abuse. While one p h a s e of t h e campaign will he devoted to public education on this form of wild life protection, activity will be centered oa state lawmaking bodies. T h e campaign has the support of the American Humane association, the Humane Education society, and other organizations interested in protection of dumb animals, Mr. Breck said. An Important point stressed by him is that the fur industry does not stand to lose in the elimination of traps, In that the decrease in the number of fur-bearing animals captured will send tile prices of pelts up, and t h e wearer of furs alone will be hit financially. The following points will be stressed as the basis for the campaign : Eighty to ninety million animals a r e caught every* year In steel traps which involve needless suffering. One-tenth of this number would be enough for t h e d e m a n d s of real ne« essity ; t h e rest is merely in response to the d e m a n d s of fashion, and Is attributable t o a great extent to t h e present custom of wearing summer furs. T h e campaign is not directed against the fur trade, b u t It Instituted In t h e belief t h a t t h e t r a d e Itself will co-operate to eliminate t h e cruelty f r o o trapping. POINTS ON KEEPING WELL D r . F r e d e r i c k R. G r e e n , E d i t o r of " H e a l t h . " t & l*'ib. W t t i e r u N'owapaper Ualua.) BROADCASTING BETTER TEETH n p i l E radio in some form is almost ^ a« common in tl.e home a.- t h e telephone. Hruudruating stations have Increased until **v*>v\ radio owner van luue in un some station. One may hear, any evening. Jazz bands, dance mu&Je, symphony orchestras and monologues. Numerous health talks have been broadcast. Station WEAK* of New York thought that something ought to be said about (he teeth, so Dr. Uichurd R iJoran. a prominent dentist of New York city, w a s asked to tell thousands of listeners how to take care uf children's teeth. These are a tew of t h e suggestions Doctor Doran made : Th* responsibility for good teeth resrs largely with mothers, In the care given ro children's mouths and teeth before they a r e able to care for them themselves. (iood teeth mean good health, strengti and freedom from illness. From the time of the child's birth up to the appearance of the first tooth, which Is at about the sixth month, the baby's mouth should be carefully wiped out dally with a very soft cloth and warm water. When the baby is about six months old the first teeth appear. They a r e the two lower and the two upper front teeth. From this first appearance these teeth should be carefully cleaned each day with a soft cloth. Later on. a small toothbrush should be used. As the other teeth appear they should be given the same care. By the time the child is two and a half years old all of its first or milk teeth, twenty in number, should have made their appearance. Mothers should teach their children to brush the teeth morning and evening and to keep t h e gums and tongue clean. If the teeth were continuous and were perfectly smooth there would be no trouble. But they have numerous grooves In their surfaces and there are small spaces between them. In chewing, food Is often crowded between the teeth or left in some of the little grooves. If the teeth a r e not immediately cleaned after eating, these food particles will decay, producing an acid which dissolves t h e enamel and results in decay of t h e teeth themselves, Many mothers believe that the milk teeth are of lltrle Importance; that there a r e no nerves in t h e m ; and that their decay is of no Importance. This Is a serious mistake. Decayed teeth cannot chew properly and are very apt to cause decay in the permanent teeth after they come in. Every child should learn to brush its teeth after every meal and to keep them sound and free from decay. v DIABETES ON THE INCREASE C O MUCH has appeared In the ^ newspapers during the last two years about Doctor Banting and his insulin treatment for diabetes that many a r e under the Impression that this disease h a s been practically wiped out or will disappear in t h e near future. This is a g r a v e mistake. Insulin Is in no sense a cure for diabetes. It Is merely a substance which enables the diabetic patient to live a little longer than he otherwise would. It has no effect, so far as we now know, While diabetes has been known ever since the time of Hippocrates, it Is probably more common today than ever before and Is constantly Increasing. O u r statistics nn diseases are so recent a s to give us tittle information regarding their freqnency a nundred or two hundred years ago hut we do know that diabetes is much more common today. New York city was one of the first communities In this country to keep any records regarding the causes o1 death, In t h e late OO's, Just after the close of the Civil war, one death from diabetes occurred in every 2,400. in 10'J3. there was one death from diabetes in every 51. As diabetes is not a contagious disease but Is d u e entirely to personal habits, probably largely to diet, this increase must be due to some change in our manner of living. In a recent Issue of the Survey Dr. Haven Emerson shows that t h e Increased use of sugar is probably re sponsible. Fifty years ago sugar was a luxury and w a s eaten In comparatively small amounts. A few pieces of barley sugar or a i little home-made molasses taffy w a s 1 about all the candy hvailable for children. Adults used small amounts of sugar on their foods. Today, there are candy stores on every corner, candy stsnds in every drug store, lunch room and hotel lobby. T h e consumption of soft drinks. Ice cream and other sweet things h a s enormously increased. T h e average amount of sugar eaten today hy the American people la far beyond that of any other period in t h e world's history. Now, sugar, itself, is an excellent food hot we a r e consuming today more sugar than ever before to o a r food, with candy, sweet drlnae* a n d Ice cream thrown la for good measure. T h e discovery of insulin will n e t la a n y way diminish t h e amount ol diabetes. Only sensible regntattoa et o a r diet can d o t h a t fl Famous Forte in U. S.

Henry Leavenworth established two ol the UIOKI important forts In llie early days of the west. It is especially appropriate thai one of them, still one of Uncle Sam's greatest military post*, should bear his name. So Fort Leavenworth in K a n s a s keeps alive today t h e memory of this gallant soldier who first distinguished himself In t h e War of 181^ but who won even greater laurels in the West. By 1827 the volume of trade to t h e old Spanish capital of Santa F e h a d become so large t h a t t h e government found it necessary to t a k e measures for its protection from hostile Indians. Accordingly General Leavenworth was ordered to establish a fort for such a purpose a n d h e selected t h e present site of Fort Leavenworth. Soon afterwards t h e military stores at Fort Atkinson In Nebraska w e r e removed to Fort Leavenworth a n d it became t h e principal outpost on t h e great trail Into t h e Southwest. At the outbreak of the Mexican war t h e "Army of t h e West" w a s organized at Fort Leavenworth a n d In 1846 Col. S. W. Kearney set out from this post with his dragoons on t h e historic march to conquer t h e Southwest. In 1854 Fort Leavenworth became t h e seat of civil a s well as military government in that part of t h e country when Andrew H. Reeder, t h e first governor of Kansas, arrived there to es- | tabllsh the territorial government. T h e next year t h e old fort s a w Gen. W. S. Harney s t a r t i n g on t h e expedition against t h e Brule Sioux which resulted In the crushing defeat of these Indians a t t h e battle of Ash- Hollow. In view of Fort Leaven- ' worth's later prominence as a military I prison, it is interesting to note t h a t the seven Sioux chiefs who surrendered to Harney as hostages for t h e good conduct of their people were , sent there for safekeeping. T h u s these original Americans were t h e first to be "sent down to Leavenworth" with all the sinister meaning that those words still carry. But for all of Fort Leavenworth's later reputation a s "a good place to I stay out of," in t h e old days It w a s a place of refuge for It w a s the eastern terminus of the K a n s a s stage line which ran to Denver and the Pikes Peak gold diggings, and many a pas- | senger on one of these stages, after a thrilling ride to escape hostile Indians, drew his first free breath when he saw Its friendly old walls. The Fort That Saw Two Decisive Battles Few forts can claim the distinction of having had a part In t w o decisive battles in American history. Yet Fort St. Philip in Louisiana has the right to that claim. It was built in 1814 as a defense for New Orleans at a hend in t h e Mississippi some 65 miles below that city. After Gen, Andrew Jackson's victory at New Orleans, a part of the British fleet bombarded Fort St. Philip for five days but failed to reduce it. T h e American loss w a s only two killed s a d seven wounded, a fitting conclusion to "Old Hickory's" great • victory, which w a s r e m a r k a b l e in t h e fact that he lost only eight kllleu and 13 wounded a s compared to t h e British loss of 700 kilted and 500 tRken prisoners. At t h e opening of t h e Civil w a r Louisiana s t a t e troops seized Fort St. Philip and Its sister stronghold. Fort Jackson, (built between 1824 a n d 1882) on t h e other side of t h e river. They mounted 75 guns on Fort Jackson, 40 on St. Philip, stretched a chain across t h e river below F o r t Jackson and placed a fleet of 15 vessels above t h e t w o forts. With these defenses they believed New Orleans safe from any attack. In March, 18C2, Commodore David F a r r a g u t arrived on t h e Mississippi with a fleet of 48 vessels, bearing more than 200 guns, and orders to t a k e New Orleans. F o r six days t h e mortar flotilla of Commander D. D. Porter bombarded t h e t w o forts without much a p p a r e n t success. Then F a r r a g u t decided to t r y to run past t h e forts, an undertaking which t h e Confederates considered sheer madness. Early in the morning of April 24 F a r r a g u t started u p t h e river a n d through a perfect storm of shot and shell from t h e fort, t h e fleet, with t h e exception of three vessels, safely made i t s way. T h e Confedera t e ships were destroyed and on May 1 New Orleans w a s in t h e possession of t h e Union forces. In t h e meantime P o r t e r kept u p t h e bombardment of t h e t w o forts a a d with t h e co-operation of troops under Gen. B. F . Batter, compelled t h e Confederate Gen. J . K, Duncan with h i s force of 700 m e n l a each fort to surrender on April 2S. F a r r a g u t ' s loss la this affair w a s only 37 killed a n d 147 wounded.

Presidem I'oolidge'h determined opposition to ihe unification oi the army, navy and postal air services, as proposed by the furry bill, has been officially disclosed to the house military committee by Secretary Wilbur. Secretary Wilbur am! Rear Admiral S. S. Itobinson, commander of the battle fleet, both appeared before the committee as witnesses in opposition to the project. Mr. Wilbur told the committee that President Coolidge hud authorized him to state the opposition of the President to the plan for the creation of an independent department of aeronautics as not needed. l i e asserted that the British experiment involved in the creation of a unified air service has not been completely satisfactory. Criticisms of the British plan, as reported in British newspapers and magazines, are beiny placed before the committee. Secretary Wilbur said tiiat he and all Qualified naval officers believe the divorcement of naval aviation from the navy would be fraught with grave consequences for national defense. Asked about duplication of efforts and expense involved in separate army, navy and postal air services Secretary Wilbur replied that it was .lie constant effort of the Navy department to avoid ail sticli duplication. He expressed the opinion tlini the aim* of economy ami efficiency sought by the Curry measure could be better obtained by co-operation iietween the army and naval air services through their amalgamation. Mr. Wilbur objected in particular t<> one provision of the bill which, he thought, would require the navy to surrender to the proposed new department of aeronautic* large quantities ot material and ships now used in connection with the operation of naval aircraft, l i e declared that if the bill ts to be enacted it should be amended} specifically to release these items. The aviation properties of the navy, he said, are valued at $42.0f>.V)7U and the navy Is endeavoring to Increase its air defense as far a* practicable or necessary. He felt that extravapint statements with respect to the utility of aircraft were being made to the country, misleading both to the public and to congress, and asserted that extravagant statements of this character should not be used as a btuds for action by congress in drafting H national aviation program. What the Farmers Want of Uncle Sam PRESIDENT COOLIDC.E's agricultural conference, headed hy former Gov. Robert D. Carey of Wyoming, has made its final report on conditions and recommendations for legislation. Briefly, according to the conference, agriculture "needs continuing constructive and sympathetic leadership in the administration of governmental departments as they affect the farmery' varied interests." The one outstanding suggestion for the !>ettermenr of fhe flintier is that he should be given, "through the application of the protective tariff system, the full benefits of American markets." "The American farmer cannot compete willi imported agriciilf urn I pm !• nets, created through cheap w:'e;gn !,-t bor and lower standards of li\iug, rmr can he compete in foreign markets for the sale of his products a.t world price levels create'1 by supply and demand arising out of foreign productive stand ardn and foreign buying power." the report said. A co-operative marketing system, fostered and supervised by the government. IK recommended. A special board would be created for this work. better credit arrangements and i\ readjustment of freight rates are suggested. The conference made its report to the President at breakfast at the White House. The guests of the President for the occasion were: Secretary Gore of the Department of Agriculture, members of the conference, Senator Curtis, Itepuhllcan leader of the senate ; Representative Longwiirth, majority leader of the house, and Senators Charles L.

BROADCASTING BETTER TEETH Peace Union Would Amend Constitution A man is entitled to his share hat he has no right to try to separate another man from his. NOW that the Conference on the Cause and Cure of War Is over, with its findings substantially indorsed by President Coolidge, the Women's Pence I'nion gets into the limelight. This organization, which has opened headquarters here, would stop war hy means of a constitutional amendment. They do not expect to accomplish much at this session of congress but expect to be in slmpe for an aggressive fight next December. Mrs. Gertrude Krancbot Tone of Niagara Falls, X. Y.. has charge of the new headquarters. She is assisted by Miss Edwlna Straton Mabcock, Nantucket, Mass., novelist, and Miss Mary Gertrude Kendall of Rnltiniore, Md. The constitutional amendment which the women seek to have congress propose, eventually, to the states, reads as follows : "1. War for any purpose slmll be Illegal, and neither the United States nor any state shall prepare for, declare, engage In. c y r y on, or In any way sanction war or other armed conflict, expedition, Invasion or undertaking within or without the United States or any state; and "Neither the United States nor any state or subdivision thereof, nor any territory, corporation, association or person within the Jurisdiction of the United States shall organize, train, maintain, hire, manufacture, purchase, employ, use, or authorize the use of any army, militia, or other armed forces, or of armed ships, airplanes, machines or other armaments; nor shall the United States or any state or subdivision thereof, or any territory, corporation, association or person within the Jurisdiction of the United States levy taxes or appropriate or expend funds for any such purpose.

"8. All provisions of the Constitution and of the articles In addition thereto and amendment thereof, which are in conflict with or inconsistent with this article are hereby rendered null and void and of no effect. "4. The congress and the several states shall have concurrent power to enact appropriate legislation to give effect to this article."

Numerous health talks have been broadcast. Station WEAK of New York thought that something ought to be said about the teeth, so Dr. Uichurd F. Doran, a prominent dentist of New York city, was asked to tell thousands of listeners how to take cure of children's teeth. These are u tew of the suggestions Doctor Doran made : Th»- responsibility for good teeth rests largely with mothers. In the care given to children's mouths and teeth before they are able to care for them themselves. (iood teeth mean good health. strengtt and freedom from Illness. From the time of the child's birth up to the appearance of the first tooth, which is at about the sixth month, the baby's mouth should be carefully wiped out daily with a very soft cloth and warm water. When the baby is about six months old the first teeth appear. They are the twe lower and the two upper front teeth. From this first appearance these teeth should be carefully cleaned each day with a soft cloth. Later on, a small toothbrush should be used. As the other teeth appear thej should be given the same care. By the time the child Ig two and a half years old al) of its first or milk teeth. twenty in number, should have made their appearance. Mothers should teach their children to brush the teeth morning and evening and to keep the gums and tongue clean. If the teeth were continuous and were perfectly smooth there woula be no trouble. But they hav^ numerous grooves in their surfaces and there are small spaces between them. In chewing, food Is often crowded between the teeth or left In some of the little grooves. If the teeth are not immediately cleaned after eating, these food particles will decay, producing an acid which dissolves the enamel and results In decay of the teeth themselves. Many mothers believe that the milk teeth are of little importance; that there are no nerves in them; and that their decay is of no Importance. This Is a serimis mistake* Decayed teeth cannot chew properly and are very apt to cause decay in the permanent teeth after they come In. Every child should learn to brush Its teeth after every meal and to keep them sound and free from decay. v B Famous Forts in U. S. History B 7 ELMO SCOTT W A T S O N at a t£). lVXi, W M l i m Nawapaiwr Lnlou > Guardian of the Trail to Santa Fe Since (Jen. Henry Leavenworth established twu of the inosi im[HjrtHUt forts in the early days of the west, It Is especially appropriate that one of them, still one of Uncle Sam's greatest military posts, should bear his name. So Fort Leavenworth In Kansas keeps alive today the memory of this gallant soldier who flrst distinguished himself in the War of 1812 but who won even greater laurels In the West. By 1827 the volume of trade to the old Spanish capital of Santa Fe had become so large that the government found It necessary to take measures for its protection from hostile Indiana. Accordingly General Leavenworth was ordered to establish a fort for such a purpose and he selected the present site of Fort Leavenworth. Sfoon afterwards the military stores st Fort Atkinson In Nebraska were removed to Fort Leavenworth and it became the principal outpost on the great trail into the Southwest. At the outbreak of the Mexican war the "Army of the West" w a s organized at Fort Leavenworth and in 1846 Col. S. W. Kearney set out from this post with his dragoons on the historic march to conquer the Southwest. In 1864 Fort Leavenworth became the seat of civil as well as military government In that part of the country when Andrew H. Reeder, the first governor of Kansas, arrived there to establish the territorial government. The next year the old fort saw Gen. W. S. Harney starting on the expedition against the Brule Sioux which resulted in the crushing defeat of these Indians at the battle of Ash- Bollow. In view of Fort Leavenworth's later prominence as a military prison, it is Interesting to note that the seven Sioux chiefs who surrendered to Harney as hostsges for the good conduct of their people were sent there for safekeeping. Thus these original Americans were the first to be "sent down to Leavenworth" with all the sinister meaning that those words still carry. But for all of Fort Leavenworth's later reputation as "a good place to stay out of," in the old days It was a place of refuge for It was the eastern terminus of the Kansas stage line which ran to Denver and the Pikes Peak gold diggings, and many a pussenger on one of these stages, after a thrilling ride to escape hostile ln- 1 dians, drew his "first free breath when he saw Its friendly old walls. The Fort That Saw Two Decisive Battles DIABETES ON THE INCREASE BEST CGORLIDPS INFLUENZA Cutioura ToHetTrio TJ E cruelty of -the steel trap device for catching fur-bearintr sinimals is to he the target for a nation-wide campaign hy humanitarians and nature lovers. The object Is the abolition of this needless form of torture of wild'animals. Announcement by Edward Breck, commander I'nlted States navy, retired, naturalist and historian, that he has completed an investigation of the methods prevalent In the fur industry which is to be the basis for a great campaign has stirred humane organizations and nature societies. Commander Breck. at a meeting of the Humane Kducarion society here. scored the apathy and Indifference of the public to t h l s ^ r e v a l e n t form of cruelty to animals, which he branded as "an outrage upon decency and upon ethics." The ultimate aim of the campaign Is federal legislation, although the Immediate goal Is state control of, this alleged abuse. While one phase of the campaign will be devoted to public education on this form of wild life protection, activity will be centered on state lawmaking bodies. The campuitm has the support of the American Humane association,- the Humane Education society, and other organizations interested in protection of dumb animals, Mr. Breck said. .\n Important point stressed hy him is that the fur industry does not stand to lose in the elimination of traps, in that the decrease in the number of fur-l>earing animals captured will send tlie prices of pelts up, and the wearer of furs alone will be hit financially. The following points will be stressed as the basis for the campaign: Eighty to ninety million animals are caught even" year in steel traps whieh involve needless suffering. One-tenth of this number would be enough for the demands of real necessity ; the rest is merely in response to the demands of fashion, and 1» attributable to a great extent to the present custom of wearing summer furs. T s e campaign Is not directed against the fur trade, but is Instituted in the belief that the trade Itself will co-operate to eliminate the cruelty fron> trapping. C O MUCH has appeared In the ^ newspapers during the last two years about Doctor Banting and his insulin treatment for diabetes that many are under the Impression that this disease has been practically wiped out or will disappear in the near future. This is a grave mistake. T is in no sense a cure for dlabei it is merely a substance which ei ibles the diabetic patient to live a little longer than he otherwise would. It has no effect, so far as we now know, While diabetes has been known ever since the time of Hippocrates, it 19 probably more common today than ever before and is constantly Increasing. Our statistics nn diseases are so recent as to give us little Information regarding their freqnency a hundred or two hundred years ago but we do know that diabetes Is much more common today. New York city was one of the first communities In this country to keep any records regarding the causes ol death. In the late fin's, just after t he close of the Civil war, one death from diabetes occurred in every 2,400. In 1923. there was one death from diabetes In every 51. As diabetes is not a contagions disease but is due entirely to personal habits, prohnbly largely to diet, this increase must be due to some change In our manner of living. In a recent Issue of the Survey Dr. Haven Emerson shows thHt the Increased use of sugar Is probably responsible. Fifty years ago s'lTgur was s luxury and was eaten in comparatively small amounts. A few pieces of barley sugnr or S little home-made molasses taffy was abont all the candy Kvsiluble for children. Adults used small amounts of sugar on their foods. Today, there are candy stores on every corner, candy stands in every drug store, lunch room and hotel lobby. The consumption of soft drinks. Ice cream and other sweet things has enormous* ly Increased. The average amount of sugar eaten today hy the American people Is far beyond that of any other period In the world's history. Now, sugar, Itsett Is an excellent food hot w e are consuming today mora sugar than ever before In our rood, with candy, sweet drinks* *nd Ice cream thrown In for good* measure. The discovery of insulin will net in any w a y diminish the amount of diabetes. Only sensible regntettoa ef oar diet can do that. Few forts can claim the distinction of having bad a part in two decisive battles In American history. Yet Fort St. Philip In Louisiana has the right to that claim. It was built in 1814 as a defense for New Orleans at s bend In the Mississippi some 65 miles below that city. After Qen. Andrew Jackson's victory at New Orleans, a part of the British fleet bombarded Fort St. Philip for five days but failed to reduce it. The American loss was only two kHIedand seven wounded, a fitting conclusion to "Old Hickory's" great • victory, which was remarkable in the fact that he lost only eight killeo snd IS wounded as compared to the British loss of 700 killed and 500 taken prisoners. At the opening of the Civil war Louisiana state troops seized Fort St. Philip and its sister stronghold. Fort Jackson, (built between 1824 and 1882) on the other side of the river. They mounted 75 guns on Fort Jackson, 40 on St. Philip, stretched a chain across the river below Fort Jackson and placed a fleet of 15 vessels above the two forts. With these defenses they believed New Orleans safe from any attack. In March, 1862, Commodore David Farragut arrived on the Mississippi with a fleet of 48 vessels, bearing more than 200 guns, and orders to take New Orleans. For six days the mortar flotilla of Commander D. D. Porter bombarded the two forts without much apparent success. Then FHrragut decided to try to run past the forts, an undertaking which the Confederates considered sheer madness. Early In the morning of April 24 Farragut started up the river and through a perfect storm of shot and shell from the fort, the fleet, with the exception of three vessels, safely made its way. The Confederate ships were destroyed and on May 1 New Orleans w a s in the possession of the Union forces. In the meantime Porter kept up the bombardment of the two forts and with the co-operation of troops under Gen. B. F. Butler, compelled the Confederate Gen. J. K. Duncan with his force of 700 men In each fort to surrender on April 28, Farragut's lorn in this affair w a s only 87 killed and 147 wounded. His was one of the most srlUlant feats of the ws.r and when Fort 8t Philip and Fort Jackson surrendered It marked the beginning of the ehaln of events which enabled Abraham Uacora to write "The Father of Waters now flows uarexed to the '*£#Mr S l i p * hoant te« Osteite this ^,, , tsstbtd, gwtet- fit* workdregs.

Few Realize Great Pressure Under Sea When you drop something Into two or three miles of ocean, you immediately invite bard usage- First, there Is the pressure of the water. The weight of the sea at 1*000 fathoms (approximately one mile) is one ton to the square inch., or 150 times as great as the air which we breathe. Go down 2,500 fathoms and there is a pressure many times more powerful than that of the steam in a locomotive boiler. Captain De Carteret told me of a test that was made on the cable ship Colonla In midocean, writes George W. Gray In the American Magazine. An empty sods water bottle—one of the kind that has a conical bottom—was fitted with a long stopper of hard wood trimmed to fit the neck of the bottle snugly, and cut so s s to make it barely touch the bottom of the bottle. The bottle was weighted and let down to a depth of 2,000 fathoms. When it wsa brought up, the point of the wooden stopper was protruding through the OUstsf Almanac? Probably the almanac preserved In the British maseum, which dstss back 1*200 years betors the- birth of Christ to tbe time of rUmeats the Great of Egypt, hi the oldest rn tbe world. It Is wrlttesi on papyrus, la red Ink. and COigaSj a period of six years. The entries rotate to rmlgioas ceremonies, to the fstes of children born on given days, sed to the refnJstioo of business aterprlses la afxordsutce with planlnnuencee. thick glass bottom. The pressure of the water hud converted the stopper into a hydraulic ram, and had driven It «o neatly through the bottom of the bottle that there wasn't even a star fracture in the glass. Another cable seaman told of lowering a piece of meat, properly weighted to make It sink, in the mid-Atl'-ntic. After being exposed to the near-freezing temperature and the squeezing weight of a thousand fathoms of ocean, that touch roast beef came up ss tender as veal.

He went to the second floor and entered the bath room and another room, but found nothing unusual and as he turned off the light to go downstairs again he was raught from behind and a hand placed over his mouth an dheld by two people, one thrusting a copule of handkerchiefs in his mouth and the other one secured a clothes line and bound him, A demand wasmnde for the K. of C. oath which he was thought to possess and he informed them the document was not in the house or even i.n the village. They gave him four days to produce the document and where to leave it, gave him a push over into the corner of the hath room and left the house. Mr. Hamilton finally worked the handkerchiefs from his mouth and succeeded in getting upon his feet and / reached the stairs and slid down to trig,-' first floor and was able to reach the telephone, which fortunately is located rather low down and called for help and in a short time Mrs. Hamilton and several people responded at once, but of course no clues were left.

He stated that this is the third assault that has been made upon his person. Mr. Hamilton tilled his pulpit at the morning service as usual, but took up his evening service.—Fowlerviiie Review.

I l i , £c—pilgrimage (f^f /A 'J-v ^ °u n K America to the ^'j^Jy'" tioitie ami tomb of the "Sa\ii)f of His Country." The "First Pilgrimage" presented the inspiring spectacle of almost J.IKK) Iowa and Missouri sehool children paying homage at the Springfield shrinks. It was a crusade of patriotism, of Americanism, of the hero worship that springs eternal in the young American breast for Washington and Lincoln and the great and good of our national history. It was a declaration of faith in Lincoln's Gettysburg Ad dres> : Knur score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth upon this continent a now nation, ror.colved in liberty, and dedicated to the jiropusltion that all men arc created equal . . . and t h a t g o v e r n m e n t of the people, by the people, and for the people, shall not perish from the earth. The purpose of the pilgrimage was to gain strength and reverence by actual contact with the actual places where Lincoln lived and worked and had his being before the nation called him to the work for which Divine Providence raised him up—and to the tomb in which he lies. There a r e many Lincoln shrines. Almost every spot Intimately connected with his life Is known and marked and reverenced. The Lincoln Memorial In Washington is a thing of beauty and a Joy forever. In time the Lincoln highway, f a n n i n g the continent, will be worthy of his name and fume. Hut always his tomb will be Abraham Lincoln's reul shrine. ThLs "First Pilgrimage" grew out of a meeting last summer in Springfield between Karl K. Ferguson of Shenandoah, la., and Kev. H. II. PIttman. The Khvanis clubs of the two cities sponsored It. At first the pilgrimage was planned for the school children of Shenandoah only. Other towns heard of it and asked that their children might be included. E n t h u s i a s m spread from southwestern Iowa over the state line Into northwestern Missouri. And when the time came for the start no less than 2*J Iowa and Missouri cities and towns were represented by 1.S50 boys and girls. The start was made from Shenandoah. And all Shenandoah' and the countryside for miles around turned out to bid the pilgrimage "Godspeed and safe return :" It took three spe- Australia's Wealth cial trains of 41 cars to hold the youngsters and those entrusted with their care. And these three special trains were made up of steel cars. And the: Wabash cleared the track for them. Special instructions were passed along the line, Xo chances were taken with 1 ,K,"<) s c h o o l children from L"J Inwa and Missouri towns going to pay homage at Lincoln shrines! I>ld you ever sec a whole traln-loa<L of school children off on an adventure? Well, let your Imagination work overtime. The atmosphere was hectic during the early hours of the night About the only pilgrims who Insisted upon preserving dignity were the hoy who was guarding a young oak tree to be planted on the morrow and the girl who had been selected for the honor of laying the wreath on the tomb. Hut the excitement and merriment finally did die down. And the special nurses and "chaperons" finally got a chance to s^o from seat to seat, "tucking in" some of the smaller children r?nd making them comfortable for the night. Some of the older nneg declared they were going to stay awake all night so as to be sure to see the Mississippi when they crossed It. Maybe they did. Hut lots and lots of the pilgrims had to be roused up out of ihe soundest kind of sleep for the first s t o p - Jacksonville, II].. where the Klwnnis club of that city served breakfast at 7 :W. At 0:30 the trains rolled Into Springfield. The pilgrims left their cars at the old Wabash station, now a freight office. Why? Because It was from that spot that Lincoln departed for Washington to take up the duties of the Presidency. They were welcomed In befitting style by the Roys' band df the Springfield high school. Victor Ryan made the welcoming address. And Victor Ttynn stood by the tablet which m s r k s the spot whore Lincoln s'ood on February 11, 1801, when he delivered his farewell address to his friends and neighbors. Lincoln may have had a premonition that he was never to return—his was a strange soul, seemingly at times closely in touch with the Infinite. He spoke to about one hundred people, largely personal friends. It was a sad address, appreciative of his responsibilities and of the troublous time* to come. H e r e are his exact w o r d s : My friend* No one not in my p o s i t i o n can appreciate the. narirteM I feel at this parting. To this people I owe all t h a t I a m .

The young pilgrims formed In columns of four, headed by the band. They marched up the street, took a left turn and reached the First Presbyterian church. There Lincoln attended services. There ''is pew Is kept Just as it was when he sat in it. As t h e children of the first train left the church those of the second train entered. From the church the march was to the old frame house where Lincoln lived. H e r e they were escorted through in a steady stream of all the sections. Followed lunch at the high school. In Lincoln square all Joined In planting "The Lincoln Ouk," a memorial to the Emancipator and of the pilgrimage, T h e n the little pilgrims filed slowly up the ridge in Oak Hill. The sun darkened and the wind turned chill. Little the pilgrims cared. They were approaching the tomb of Lincoln. At the tomb the lines of three abreast broke Into single file and one by one the Iowa and Missouri school children of t h e "First Pilgrimage" marched slowly past the sarcophagus of the m a r t y r President. Not a word was said. The faces of the young pilgrims were studies In the solemnity of the moment. Mary Louise Brower of Shenandoah placed the wreath of the pilgrims. It lies beside the wreaths of Clemenceau and of Lloyd George and of many others of the great of earth. Let us hope t h a t Lincoln in the spirit was present at t h e laying of that wreath I T h e "Second Pilgrimage" was that of Chicago Boy Scouts, led by their scout executive, George Stephenson and George F. Repp, president o f . t h a Klwanls club of Chicago. T h e boy scouts were bidden Godspeed by Mayor Dever and given a letter from him commending them to Mayor S. A. Bullard of Springfield. Kn route films depleting scenes In Lincoln's life were shown and a p p r o p r i a t e speeches made. It was subzero weather, but 70 hardy youngsters made the pilgrimage. A special car on the Chicago <fc Alton landed them at 3 :30 p. m. They were welcomed by the Klwanls club and were taken in automobiles to the Lincoln home and tomb. T h e only ceremony was fhe placing of a w r e a t h at the tomb. T h e portrait of Lincoln reproduced herewith Is from a photograph taken in 1857 by Alexander Hesler, Chicago. It was the first likeness t h a t was widely circulated. Lincoln let his beard grow for the first time In 1861 and wore a full beard at his inauguration. The private wealth of Australia a rvanced a b o u t 33 per cent «1uring t&e six years preceding J u n e .'10, 1921, according to figures compiled by the Commonwealth statistician. The per capita wealth has also shown considerable advances during l a t e years. An estimate made at the beginning of t h e Nineteenth century placed the total wealth at £1,000,000. or about £75 a head. In 1890 It reached £1,019,000,- 000—an average of £32S for each p e r son—while the latest estimate, made a s of J u n e 30, 1921, places the total at £2,106,000.000, or n per capita wealth of a little less than £400. Some of this Increase, of coume, Is due to the advance In price levels, but the larger part may be attributed to actual Increases in assets.

They : are momuaentb to tile memory of two ' great American frontier hero*?*— Daniel Boone and Davy Crockett— they a r e national shrines. The Mission of San Antonio de Valero, commonly culled the Mission del Alamo (Alamo being t h e Spanish word for cottonwood tree) was founded by the Erunciscuns in 1703 and after various removals was established In its present locution in 1 7 ^ . Soon after the outbreak of the Texan War of Independence In \KV> the Alamo was seized by the Texans. It* commander early the next year was Lieut. Col. William Barrett Travis, a young Carolina lawyer. Associated witli him w a s Col. J a m e s Bowie of Ceor^in and of Bowie knife fame. They hud only about 1 R» men but In February there came a welcome reinforcement in the person of Davy Crockett, accompanied by some of his neighbors from Tennessee. On February 23, 1836. Santa Ana. the dictator of Mexico, appeared before t h e fort anti demanded its surrender. Travis answered with a shot ! from his cannon and#a defiant hoisting of his flag. T h e Mexican leader had more than 4,000 men but h e did not care to risk an assault so erected : batteries and opened tire. ! For eleven days the siege was ron- ! tlnued with heavy losses for t h e Mexicans but without a fingle casus, alty among t h e defenders. In t h e meantime Travis' appeals for help brought to the Alamo Col. J a m e s Butler Bonham, who slipped through t h e lines of the besiegers, and a detachment of 32 men, led by Capt. J. W, Smith, which cut its way through. Finally on March fi Santa Ann ordered a grand assault by a picked force of 2,500 men. Two attacks were beaten back by the desperate Texans but the garrison, weakened by t h e long vigil and lack of food, could not hurl bflck the third attempt. The Mexicans swarmed over the walls and for t h e next few minutes there followed one of tlie most desperate hand-to-hand ! encounters ever fought on the American continent. When It ended only five of the ISO defenders were left alive and they were wounded, helpless prisoners, By command of Santa Ana they were killed at once. But the sacrifice of Davy Crockett and his fellow heroes was not in vain, for t h e battle cry which swept t h e field at the decisive battle of San Jacinto, was "Remember the Alamo:" On a monument In the state capltol at Austin commemorating their deeds Is this line: "Thermopylae had its messenger of defeat.

'linn Is naturally the c a s e ; In fact, it la pmbuble thai present-day sports have been one of the important reasons for presentday clothes. Our grandmothers, who were taught to walk sedately, to sit quietly in their chairs, a n d never to do anything "boisterous or unladylike" would be horrified at the sight of a basketball .game in any of our school gymnasiums or playgrounds. (Jirls of today a r e belter and more sensibly dressed than they have been in centuries. Athletic sports and outdoor games a r e far belter for t h e growing girl than crocheting tidies ami embroidering mottoes, yet there are dangers in excessive activity of any kind. In a recent issue of t h e Child Health Magazine, Dr. J. Anna Norrjs, physical director for women at t h e ["Diversity of Minnesota, calls intention to some of t h e dangers in basketball for women. As Doctor Norris well says, basketball is t h e most popular indoor game for girls. It affords opportunity for vigorous recreation, for team play, and for healthy social relations. It should, however, be played by girls' rules and under primer conditions. It is a recognized fact that baskethall a s played by boys Is too strenuous and severe a game for girls. T h e physical directors of t h e leading women's schools have modified t h e game so a s to adapt it to the strength and endurance of girl players. T h e first important change in t h e girls' rule* is to discourage personal contact and struggling by making it a foul to hold, block or snap* the ball from t h e hands of another player. The second important change is to provide a number of different courts of different sizes, depending on t h e ages of the girl players. Tills makes It possible for each girl to play in her own court and with girls of her own age and physical strength. T h e third change is the division of t h e fifteen or twenty minute halves of the game into quarters, making t h e actual playing time not more than ten minutes at a stretch. Probably the last change Is t h e most Important, T h e long playing periods, with the constant activity necessary in basketball, places a severe strain on the pla.wrs' hearts. No girl should be allowed to play basketball until she has had a careful physical examination with especial reference to the condition of her heart and until a competent person has decided that she has a sound heart and is cajiable of placing without injury to herself. Both the games themselves and t h e practice periods should be strictly limited so that continuous playing Is not allowed for more than ten minutes at a time, MICE TAUGHT~TO ANSWER DINNER BELL "Oh, we don't mind the marching', Nor the flghtlriK do we fear; But we'll ne'er forget old Harney For bringing us to Pierre.

An army legend asserts .that it was founded hy Peter the Hermit, survivor of the First crusade, who selected this place near the Bad Lands because of its Indescribable dreariness and desolation. More authentic history Informs tin, however, that it was built on the west bank of the Missouri aboat three mile* above t h e month of t h e Teton river by Pierre Chouteau, J r . (of t h e famous S t Loads Chouteaas), in 1830, and was occupied BS a post of t h e American KTir company in 1832. From that time antll 18.V) It was the most important pogt of the A. F. C. In the upqer Missouri country and was the center of t h e vast trade In buffalo robes with the Sioux. In 1855 t h e United States bought Fort Pierre for a military post, but abandoned it the next year and moved all Its property to Fort Randall, about 150 miles down t h e Missouri.

Whet Iter man Inherits acquired knowledge or not, may be tin open question, but apparently white mice do. Prof. Ivan P. Pawlow, t h e wellknown Russian physiologist, tells in a recent issue of Science how be taught white mice to come to dinner when t h e dinner bell rang. • T h e tirst generation of mice required three hundred lessons before they learned t h e connection between dinner and t h e dinner bell. When they finally learned it. they trotted to the feeding-trough a s soon a s they heard t h e bell. Their children only needed one hundred lessons, while their grandchildren learned to come to dinner when the bell rang In onethird of the time their fathers required. T h e fourth generation did still better, while the fifth generation were apparently born with an inherited sense of t h e connection, since after the dinner bell had rung only five times, they were at t h e dinner table a n d all ready for their food. Professor Pawlow says that he expects future generations of these white mice to be born with a knowledge of t h e connection so that they will associate the ringing o f the bell with their dinner t h e first time they hear it. Will the same rule apply to human beings? We do not know. We can't experiment with men and women, boys and girls and babies as we can with white mice. How many of u s know anything about t h e personal habits or characteristics of our great, great grandfathers? T h e man over fifty who married a t t h e average period, probably has grandchildren of from two to five years old. His grandfather, who la his grandchildren's great-great-grandfather, was probably born about a hundred years ago. Unfortunately, we haven't any records, either of the peculiarities of people born a century ago or even of the fact that they were born at all. We will know more about human animals when we keep at careful records of our children a t we do of our prize bulla, fast horses, bulldog*, chickens and PsrcUo eats.

Fretfulness, feverishness, night terrors, grinding the teeth in sleep, biliousness, coated tongue, loss of appetite,any of these may indicate constipation. Poisons from the child's stagnant intestine are flooding the little body, and if left unchecked may lead to serious consequences. Avoid Laxatives—Say Doctors A noted authority says that laxatives do not overcome constipation, but by their continued use tend only to aggravate the condition. Medical science has found in lubrication a means of overcoming constipation. The gentle lubricant, Nujol, penetrates and softens the hard food waste and hastens hs passage through and out of the body. Nujol is not a medicine or laxative and cannot gripe. Like pure water, it is harmless, Let your infant or child have Nujol reg* ularly, and see rosy cheeks, dear eyes and happiness return once more* Nujol is used in children's and general hospitals and is prescribed by physidana throughout the world. fefl i ate. us.

H U M P H R E Y S ' HEATING GARAGE VERY IMPORTANT Tack Frost Can Do Much Damage to Various Parts of Motor Car. By ERWIN QKEER. President Q r r e r College of Automotive Engineering. Chicago.) The cost of building the average private garage exceeds one thousand dollars, hence It cannot he called a rheay structure. The man spending a Thousand dollars should give sustained and serious thought to his heating problem, for there are at least three freezing cold months in every year. Will you use your car all winter, that is. more or less continually, or will you use it but a part of the cold months—say on bright, clear Sundays? Is your; garage located close to the house or is It set bacK so far from the house that it must have Individual heating apparatus? Location Important. If the garage Is close to the house, or constructed as a part of the house, the heating problem 1» a matter of simple connections running from the house heating system, and the necessary radiators, etc. But If the garage Is a separate unit—quite a distunce from the house, why, then it leaves only the internal unit. Insurance regulations are very strict against any open flame or open heater being In the same compartment with gasoline or oils. Consequently, one must figure On a garage heater that will not Interfere with Insurance companies' policies. In a general way, there are four available heating methods—direct heaters, such as stoves; hot air; steam and vapor heating. Hot Air System Favored. Hot afr heating should be considered as a method of ventilating as well, for in any hot air system the arrangement will be such as to ventilate the buildings as well. Since gasoline and oil vapors are heavy and tend to go down to the floor, rather than rise as do other vapors, garage ventilation Is difficult. As these vapors are dangerous, as Is also carbon monoxide of the exhaust, this ventilation Is especially Important, for In the cold months the garage would be kept closed even when working on the car. Hot air then should have double consideration and In a genera] way It is the lowest-priced system aside from direct heating. Direct heating Is not generally used for garages. Hot water and steam systems are recommended by Insurance men. The placing of the radiators can be decided by the garage owner. There Is nothing complicated about heating the private garage, nor is It an expensive proposition. It Is a simple matter that anyone can work out for himself In a very short time. Having done so, he will wonder why he didn't do It sooner. Jack Frost can do lots of things to an unprotected car. Frozen radiators and crocked wnter-Jackets are expensive propositions, much more costly than a garage heating system, Leave Oil in Stored Car When preparing to store the car for the winter, It Is generally under stood that the water system should be drained and the fuel system likewise. On the other hand, the oil compartments In motor, clutch, gearset «nd rear axle should not be drnlncd. The oil remaining In these parts actually preserves them during the period Innocuous desuetude. Such parts as Joints In the steor!n*c system, universals, rims, etc., should be gTensed to prevent rusting. Winding a Spring To wind a spring In a lathe Is a simple matter; to wind It without a lathe Is also a simple matter If one knows how, Select a bolt having threads about corresponding to the pitch desired In the spring. Hold the head of the bolt firmly In a vise, pinch one end of the wire tight and wind the other end around the bolt. The threads of the bolt will guide the wire so that an equally spaced spring will be formed. ft* m*>* i • « I'* » » • • » » • mmmv+mm^m He'd Hold Motorists to 30 Miles an Hour ltecoDimendutlon rhat automobile* be limited to 30 miles an hour us maximum speed under any conditions, and that the limit be 20 miles in city or town limits, was made by Frank A.

History By ELMO SCOTT WATSON T - ? ran Registration Indicates Many Farmers Use Autos Based on a total registration of pas senger cars, trucks and busses amounting to 16,500,000 in the United States, it Is interesting to note that 30 per cent of all cars are on farms. A large share of the farm-owned automobiles are owned by middle western farmers, as 85 per cent of them are car owners, while 58 per cent of the Atlantic coast farmers are owner*. On the basis of 16,500,000 cars In the country, a total of 4,900,000 of them wiU be found on farms. Miller tire statisticians figure from this that there are 70 cars for each 1,000 persons or one car to 14.3 persons. Almost half of tha total registration is In cities of 100,000 and over and In towns from 1,000 to 5,000 population. In other words, 75 per cent of the total cars are on farms in towns from 1,000 to 5,000 population and In cities of 100,-^ 000 population and over. This leaves but 25 per cent of the total registration, or about 4,000,000 cars, In towns and cities from 5,000 to 100,000 population. Gears Cause of Trouble by Jumping Out of Mesh Distributer gears of certain cars cause considerable trouble by Jumping out of mesh when the car hits a bump or depression In the road. This can be remedied by fastening a split collar to tha vertical shaft Just under the distributer, as shown. The clamp col- Collar Holds Gears in Mesh. Inr is made of steel, drilled and tapped as Indicated, and fitted with two small screws. In this way a permanent repair can he made without dismantling any of the motor parts.—Popular Science Monthly. Occasional Tire Change Is Wise Plan for Owner There is a tendency among automobile drivers towards recklessness in the use of their tires because of the greatly-increased mileage belug secured on present-day tires, as compared to the best tires of a few years ago. There Is mighty little economy In such practice. It is a pretty good plan, even if the automobile driver does not find It necessary to change tires beise of punctures or blowouts, to inge them occasionally and, by all means, to Inspect them carefully for cuts Rnd sand blisters. Cuts, especially." spread rapidly, The use of a little cut filler In time will add miles of usage to any tire. If taken in time, it will prevent sand blisters and more than pay the owner for the little tlrua devoted to making the repair. Uniform Laws Wanted At tbe present time all the states of the Union have different automobile laws, and It Is impossible for any one motorist to bo familiar with all these regulations. There is agitation for a uniform law governing the operation of motor vehicles.

As early as 1650 the French had determined to build a chain of forts through the great Jnland empire of America to check British expansion, and one of the sites selected for this purpose was on the Wabash river, on the direct line of water communication from the St. Lawrence to the Mississippi. But it was not until 1702 that the project was carried through and in that year De Vlncenne started from Detroit and established three posts, one where the city of Fort Wayne now stands, another near the present site of Lafayette, later famous as Ouiatanon, and the third on the Wabash, which was variously known as Post Ouabache, Post St. Francis Xavler and Poste Vincents. In 1736 De Vlncenne met a glorious death during D'Artaguette's expedition against the Chlekasaws, and so he was spared the pain of seeing his fort fall into British hands at the end of the French and Indian war. The new owners gave to the rude little stockaded fort which commanded the town the name of Fort Sackvllle, In honor of their prime minister, Si/ Thomas Sackvllle, earl of Dorset. In 1778, after George Rogers Clark had captured Kaskaskia upon the advice of Father Gibault, he sent a small force under Capt. Leonard Helm to take the fort at Vincennes and the French there readily»turned It over to him. Then Helm renamed it Fort Patrick Henry. He held it until Governor Hamilton swooped down and re captured it, but not until Helm ha'd bluffed the Briton Into allowing hton and his garrison of one man to march out with the honors of war: So the fort became Fort Sackvllle ugaln and again was under the British flag. Then followed the heroic march of Clark and his Virginians across the "Drowned Lands" in the winter of 1770. the short siege during which the bullets of Clark's riflemen sped with uncanny precision through the loopholes of Fort Sackvllle to terrify Its defenders, and finally the surrender of *the fort. Again this little log fortress became Fort Patrick Henry. The great Northwest WHS won for the United States and from that time until the fort was torn down, some time after 1816, Its flagstaff, which had borne the lilies of France and the red cross of Knglund knew no other flag hut the Stars and Stripes. From It Grew America's Second Metropolis Illinois has two forts which may well Iny claim to being Included among the most famous in American history—Fort Chartres on the Mississippi aad Fort Dearborn on Lake Michigan. Just as the massive bastions of Fort ChnrtteH'typified the rule of the Old world—the French— In the Mississippi valley so did the log walls of Fort Dearborn represent the reign of the New, the American. There were two Fort Dearborns, th« first built In 1803 by Capt. John Whistler (an ancestor of the faroou? painter) and named for Gen. Henry Dearborn, secretary of war. Soon after the outbreak of the War of 1812 General Hull at Detroit ordered Capt. Nathan Heald to evacuate Fort Dearborn and march to Fort Wayne, Ind. Heald, although the sullen behavior of the Pottawatomie Indians around the fort augured III, prepared to obey the order. On the morning of August L"5, 1812, "there Issued forth the Rnddest procession Michigan avenye has ever known"—the garrison of Fort Dearborn marching to its death. They had not gone south along the lake shore very far until the Indians opened, fire upon them and within a few minutes the Fort Dearborn massacre had added Its list of 53 slaughtered men, women and children, to the bloody annals of border history. The story of that massacre is both a tale of horrors and a recital of heroism unparalleled—how Capt. William Wells rode to the rescue of Mrs. Heald, his niece, and how he sold his life so dearly; how an Indian sprang Into the wagons hearing the children and tomahawked all of them save one; how Mrs. Corhin fought her attackers until she was literally cut to pieces; how Sergeant Hayes engaged In a bnnd-tohnnd combat wltli an Indian, ran his bayonet into the savage's .breast so deeply that It conld not he pulled out and how, supported hy the bayonet the Indian tomahawked the soldier and tbe two warriors fell dead together; how Black Partridge, the Pottawatomie chief, saved Mrs. Helm, the incident commemorated in a monument standing where it took place. Although the second Fort Dearborn, bulk In 1817. became an Important military and far trading post. It never provided such a dramatic reason for being remembered aa tbe first That memory la a cheriahed traditraa of the city which grew op oav Its stsa inertaa's seeasd metropolis, Chtaaga, Every girl should learn flow to make good bread; it should be the starting point in her home cookery training.

MfTWOUBUM JELLY * BABY CHICKS " * ' * ' k?5*«^« *'.''•' * * for Young Girls A thrill, and one of the sweetest, cornea once In a lifetime when the nntt party dress is selected, says a fashion writer In tbe New York Times. Nothing has ever seemed or will ever seem quite ao Important and nothing has ever been known to give more satisfaction, more beatific contentment. It la Uie early dawn of that peace of mind and poise that come from the , feeling that one Is well dressed, and to the woman of discriminating taste this feeling is of supreme importance all through her life. Whenever that great event happens, whether it Is Just a children's party or something more pretentious a few years< later, the occasion is never to be forgotten. The frolics of very little people mean to them & fresh frock not too good to be spoiled by play. The real thrill comes when the affair la-a real party. Parents who have the understanding that all property trained parents should have make a supreme effort to meet the occasion, and a clever conturiere co-operates with more enthusiasm than she can ever feel in the work she does for grownups. It Is a challenge to the Intuition, the taste, the fine sense of propriety in the artist, the making of this party dress, White Fur, Muff and Warm Leggings for the Tiny Tots. and it is not an easy task. It is vitally important that the young person shall show she is no longer a baby. Also that she shall not appear too grownup or be dressed too Bophlstieatedl. y. We Americans have much to learn from the people of England and the continent. They all delight to dress their children as "young" as possible, which seems to keep them so. This Is what every woman devoutly desires, but the thing that Is most elusive among the small fry tills side of the water. The shingled head has done much to equalize the years, and the little girl and the debutante are so much alike that the distinction is not always simple. Not any of these considerations discount the importance of \ that first party dress. The styles In frocks for little girls of the difficult age, when angular lines and awkwardness are the rule, have never been more attractive than they are this season. With infinite skill Parisian artists have modified the extremes with which even the children's and misses' clothes have lately been marked and have seized upon the new features that best become the younger people. Short Puffed Sleeves. The latest Ideas in sleeves—the short puffed sleeve that gives such a , quaint effect rn dancing frocks and the long sleeve that adds demure dignity to the daytime dress—are among the welcome changes in styles for children. Another change Is the length of skirt, still so very short for the tiny tots, but perceptibly longer for the girl whose legs so quickly outgrow her silhouette. And there are the collar and cuff sets that add such an air of daintiness to a simple frock. These points and others combine to present a jeune fllle style that Is delightful, Illustrated In a number of models created by some of the most Important designers in Parts, People of such "prestige as Pa qui n, Alice Bernard, Chanel and Vioe.net delight In making fashions for young and very young people, giving them all the subtle charm, fine quality and rone one might look for in the gowns of a lady ot taportanoe la tbe bass moods. In these the most admirable restraint sad the nicest sense of fitness are reflected Many of the little models tie works of art in the highest degree hi .the designing of clothes. Paqsin, for example, leaves for the moment his larger problems to ate a sweetly pretty, aUogetber Parietal Utile party dress of baby bite' taffeta, trkeiaedvrtth border half the>nath ef tbe aS»v*tta a wise shirring and strips of silver embroidery. Some, of this shirring is applied on the front of the bodice, which is only slightly longer than tbe normal waistline. A narrow belt of silver ribbon Is tied In a bow-knot, with ends at one side. In sharp contrast to this winsome frock Is a merry one of geranium pink velvet made quite plain, with a suggestion of the direetoire In its lines. The waist is perfectly plain, with a deep cape collar of plaited chiffon opening In front The skirt, which ends just below the knee, is laid In deep box plaits, and has wee stiff cravat bows of ribbon sewn each side of the front, as the plaits meet. Of still another quite different type is a robe de atyle done by a French modiste, in apple green taffeta. Tbia frock has no furbelows, but the skirt which is gathered full to the plain, sleeveless bodice, Is trimmed with three bands of the silk, each scalloped at the edge. This little dress has the air of a "period" costume and la quite long. Material la Important. Lanvin's things for children are usually Important as to material, and they have a certain dignity which requires much skill to keep from them any suggestion of maturer styles. One lately shown by a New York importer Is distinctly smart, of dark blue velvet, embroidered on the pockets and down the front with gold-brown silk. Tbe waist is a deep blouse. The skirt Is laid In kilt plaits around the side and back, and is barely knee-length. in another model from this house, a coat of hunter's green velvet Is cut in straight line with a high, rather military collar, and is embroidered In silver down the front, wrists and neck. Lanvln completes these chic little affairs by designing for each a variant of the cloche bonnet, and Invariably adds ribbon streamers at the back. Black velvet Is used by many of the designers of dresses for young girls, and most people consider It well to have at least one black velvet frock in the girl's winter" wardrobe. One model just brought out Is unusually smart. It Is cut after the pattern of the latest blouse, almost to the knee, to 4vhlch Is added a slightly godetud flounce having large motifs In scarlet silk chain-stitch embroidery sppllqiod over the Joining. A piping in scarlet silk outlines all tbe edges of the frock, which Is sleeveless and cut In slightly bateau line al the neck. In a unique nnd particularly dainty little party dress, pale blue grosgraln ribbon with picoted edges and shol with silver Is used In straight bands across the neck, In stripes down the sides from shoulder to hem, and tied in a how to hold the slight fullness at the waistline under each arm. Ribbon Is in Favor. The vogue of ribbon in children's frocks is Illustrated In many different styles. On one delicious little frock, pale yellow moire ribbon Is sewn perpendicularly In strips close together, covering the entire front and back oi the dress of fine white net, over a slip of peach-colored taffeta. Ribbon of the same shade of yellow In a wide width Is drawn around the hips. OKe KITCHEN CABINET l(£/.

WASHINGTON. France will pay iU $4,000,1* M),UM> war debt to the United States, * Jules Jus.serund the retiring French ambjMJttadw, asserted, breaking fil& sUobC*.fur the drat lime .since the debt funding conversations with Secretary Mellon. He was addressing a current events study class of wumen. The ambassador revealed the two major proposals he made to Mr. Mel IOB : That France he accorded more favorable terms than other debtors and that a moratorium he granted. Ureal' Britain has become greatly excited over the move made by France to pay the United States without at the same time offering to pay England and over the French suggestion of easier terms than the United States accorded England. The British attitude is widely believed to liave furnished a temporary ofeatacie, at least, to a settlement with France. In setting forth his reasons for a skins' more favorable terms for France than were given Great Britain and ether debtors Ambassador .Tusserand • a i d : "France suffered the gravest loss in ilfe. Our relative national wealth considered^ we suffered the heaviest loss in fcctane. And, fluully, France was t h e battlefield." "What we need," the ambassador continued, "is n certain moratorium - - a breathing time. That is why I have bad some talks here with the •secretary of the treasury. Various versions of those talks have gained currency. Souietiipes they have been culled conversations and sometimes negotiations. "Hut ttie upshot of it all is that we mean to pa.\. We have always paid. We are one of the nations that mean io settle with you. We want to pay. We paid our enemies after 1871. The more we are determined to pay our friends. "I am confident our particular conditions will he taken Into account. We axe not hoping for a different settlement, but rather for equitable terms. It is simply fair terms that we seek— fair in sense of terms that take our situation into consideration. A moratorium is one of the things that we need, which the others do not need We supplied more blood to the common cause than anyone. We supplied more money than any other nation, based on our national wealth. We supplied the battlefields. If the war had taken place in the United States, over an area stretching from South Carolina to Maine or in England, over a territory reaching from Dover to York, France would have paid her debts already." U. S. Leads in Quality of Air Service INFERIORITY in number hut superiority in muteriul, design and efficiency distinguishes the American air services compared with those of other countries, Secretary of the Navy Wilbur and Rear Admiral Moffett, chief of the bureau of aeronautics, told the speclul house aircraft investigating committee. "We feel we are not behind,'' the secretary testified. "As fur us the navy la concerned, the condition is satisfactory except that we need more ships. I believe that no other nation has got anything better than we have." Rear Admiral Moffett was of the name opinion, saying, "Nobody is ahead of us; In fact, we are leading." "We are so far ahead of anyhody e l s e In naval aviation," he udded. "that ;H|t will take them a long time to catch '* The superiority existed, Moffett said, despite that only 224 of the 840 planes of all kinds belonging to the navy could be relied upon for satisfactory operation under war conditions. Most Of these planes were built during the I ant three years, and already were beginning to he obsolescent, he told the committee, because new types were being designed which were the superiors of any others in the world. The United States, the rear admiral continued, was far ahead of any other country in the .development of special airplanes for use afloat, the catapult system of launching bombing machines from ships, for instance, being a thoroughly American invention. Pointing out that 117 planes were on duty afloat November 1, he said the department intended'to supply all battleships wiiti two fighting and one observation plane, and destroyers with one machine. Both Secretary Wilbur and Admiral Moffett disagreed with suggestions that the next war would be waged entirely in the air, asserting that the necessity for landing bases and their relatively limited range of action would always subordinate them in importance to the floating ships. Both witnesses also opposed the proposal for a'unlfled ulr service, expressing the opinion that naval aircraft should be controlled only by persona thoroughly conversant with naval conditions and problems. y Sound Used to Measure Ocean's Depth CONTINENTS sunk for ages below the surface of the ocean, new lands growing up from the depths of the sea, can now lie traced and charted by means of a device developed by experts of the United States navy. By the use of this interesting instrument sound waves are projected even 3 ¼ miles to the ocean's bed. The depth Is determined by the Interval elapsing before the wave returns ««d Is registered on a delicate scale. Even In shallows and shoal water the ceremony of heaving the lead may now be abandoned, for the sonic depth finder, as the Invention is called, will serve all purposes. The sonic depth finder Is the development of a government scientist. Dr. H. C. Hayes of the experimental station of the bureau of engineering, Navy department. After months of research he brought the instrument to such perfection that In June, 1023. It was placed on board the destroyer Stewart, then detailed to proceed from Newport to Gibraltar, and on to Manila through the Sues canal. Doctor Hayes accompanied the Stewart and soundings were constantly made while the destroyer was steaming across the Atlantic, 'a striking contrast to the old method of stopping and throwing out the lead, a process whlcii usually consumed one to two hours. Depths from 5X) to 250 fathoms were registered. So eminently successful was this experiment that the Navy department determined to make an exhaustive test Just completed In the Pacific. Under o n ders from ("apt. Frederic B. Bassett, Jr., the navy hydrographer, the destroyers Hull and t'orry carried on soundings, beginning opertltions in November, l i O . making r»,(XXi soundings in 38 days. They made a contour char* of the ocean's floor off the California and Mexican coasts. The distance covered was r>,8()() tulles, and the area canvassed 34,000 square miles. The Hull and Corry steamed at a steady pace of 11! knots. Officers at the Navy department are so impressed with the working of this instrument that they speculate on finding the lost Atlantis, the continent believed to have spread between South America and the African coast, and the new land said to be emerging from the vast Pacific. Through the sonic depth finder hundreds of soundings can be made while the vessel from which the observations are taken is traveling nt 12 knots an hour. Tt is known by the navy hydrographer* that great changes are going on In the deeps of the oceans. Scientists believe that land is rising near the West Indies and in the region of Malaysia, and even near Hawaii.

The weight tax would be given immediate effect to permit the issuance of 1925 licenses and the collection of funds for a construction program next sum mer The gasoline Lai would not take effect until Jan 1, 1926 The program is so drawn as to provide sufficient money for highway purposes, no matter what steps may be taken to block the enactment of a gasoline tax The minimum require ment to maintain present highways is given as $13,760,000 a year, while a 70-cent a hundredweight on passen ger cars plus an average of 90 cents a hundred on trucks would yield better than $20,000,000. according to estimates A two cents a gallon gasoline tax it Is estimated would return $7,000,000 to $8,000,000 a year The administration plan provides that if the people should vote a gasoline tax that the return from this source should be used to reduce the weight tax, the total receipts for highway purposes being held at approximately $20,000,000 The plan is the work of the administration officials and Senator Howard F Baxter, of Grand Rapids Governor Delivers Message. Governor A l e r J Groesbeck, in his message delivered to the legislature last week, featured the proposed highways and conservation program He recommended an auto weight or gasoline tax, or both, to raise revenues for road purposes He also pointed out the necessity for stricter super vision of public utilities, finance cor porations and building and loan associations and recommended to the legislature's attention the need for new buildings at many State institutions The message was delivered be fore a joint meeting of the Senate and House in the Houae chamber. He declared that there is no reason why automobile taxation in Michigan should become onerous and urged upon the assembly the enactment of weight tax rather than the present tax based on horsepower He declared that many of the present..irunk lines should be re-routed to straighten and shorten them and that the legislature should grant the additional authority Change in Judiciary Sought Bills have been introduced by Senators George M Condon and Arthur E.

PREPARING FOR BLINDNESS O A S L L KING, the well-known novel- • ^ 1st, is slowly going blind. Complete darkness will soon settle down on him, yet he is cheerful and smiling. "Even without sight" he says, "life is Ailed with splendid compensations." Could you say a s much, if you knew you would soon be blind? What would you do, if you had only six months more in which to Bee? Would you lose hope and* puss the time raving at your cruel fate, or would you spend the remaining days of sight in preparing yourself to do without vision? Our eyes are our most important sense organs. Through them we learn more about the world around us than by any other means. Yet they are not Indispensable to either a useful or » happy life. When one of our senses goes, the others can be trained to take their place. This Is especially true of those who become blind io adult life, if they use the last days of vision to educate themselvea to get along without it. The first thing to do, for those who are losing their sight, is to make up their minds to train their bodies to get along without eyes. If they allow themselves to become dependent on others, they will probably remain dependent the rest of their lives. The blind person must learn to go about alone. He must e>e able to tell, by the feeling in his feet, whether he is walking on a floor or a grassy slope, on a concrete walk or on an open road. He must learn to tell whether be is in a narrow hallway or a large room, whether he Is walking on a level or a surface sloping up or down. He must learn to see with his fingers. He must become acquainted by touch with the furniture, the ordinary household Implements, his clothes and other belongings which he has heretofore recognized by sight. He must learn in orderly arrangement of all his belongings so that when he lays an article down he will know where to find it again. He must learn to keep his person and his clothes neat and clean. If possible he should stick to his old occupation. If not, he must learn tome new kind of work which he can :lo without his eyes. But some kind of work he must have. Blindness is bad enough, but blindness and Idleness is unbearable. Most states have special schools for the blind, where they are taught suitable work, also touch reading. Special typewriters, games, books and magarines. watches, writing machines and other devices for the blind, can be secured, Anyone with courage and perseverance can learn to get along without eves.

A CCORDING to newspaper reports, * ^ Willard Mack, popular actor and matinee idol, has lost the sight of one eye and has narrowly escaped total blindness, os the result of drinking wood alcohol. With three or four friends, he was driving along a conntry road and asked a group of workmen where he could get a drink of whisky. One of the workmen handed him a pocket flask, from which they all took a drink. In a short time, all of them were blinded. After several weeks of hlindness Mack recovered the sight of one eye. The other Is permanently blinded. Forty years ago, poisoning from ethyl or wood alcohol, as It is commonly called, was unknown. The wood alcohol first made had such a disgusting odor and vile taste as to make It practically impossible for any one to drink it. About 1890, a process was discovered by which wood alcohol could be purified and deodorized and It was put on sale under various trade names, such as Columbian spirits, cologne spirits, etc. It was widely advertised as a cheap and harmless substlrute for gruln or ethyl alcohol. But soon cases of poisoning began to occur. Not only persons drinking cheap whisky died or became blinded, but painters using cheap varnishes and shellacs, especially In closed places, such as beer vats, tanks and closed rooms, were overcome by the fumes and either killed or blinded In 1904 Drs. Casey Wood'and Frank Butler collected 275 cases of death or blindness from wood alcohol. It causes an inflammation of the optic nerve, which destroys the nerve and causes incurable blindness. After drinking wood alcohol or inhaling the fumes, the victim has abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, headache and blindness. In severe cases the victim becomes unconscious and dies. In those who recover, blindness may develop in a few hours or may be delayed for several days. All persons are not equally susceptible. If ten persons drink the same amount, ail will have marked abdominal distress, four will die, six will recover, of whom two will be blind. The other four may suffer no permanent Injury. But you don't know until you try it, whether you are Immune e> not At beet, It la a three to two chance, that If you drink wood alcohol, you'll die or be blind for life.

AH that is needed is an immense clearing house, owned and operated by the producers themselves and a ttmd to tight for their rights. Take for example the milk situation as it is today. The farmer fur December received approximately, after deducting exepense of delivery, two and 8 fifth cnte per quart. Take from that cost of feed u-nd he has hut a few cents 8 day left for his labor and investment; nothing for the time spent in the wind and rain or cold of winter.

Soon there passed before us a procession of young people headed by the village band— an accordion and a tambourine. The girls followed directly behind the players. They were In holiday attire, white waists, neat little aprons, some In biff shoes, others barefooted. They walked arm in arm with one another. The boys, also in Sunday clothes, trailed after them. They were all singing in lusty resonant voices an age-old melody of a Cossack killing a gipsy who threatened to steal his sweetheart It was to me a beautiful and thrilling sight—these boys and girls, barefoot, many of them, in old though freshly laundered clothes, walking briskly and In step, oblivious or unmindful of the cares that pressed with brutal agony upon their fathers, aid giving themselves with joyous abandon to song und play, and it made me forget for the moment the ugly mud, the dingy hovels and the multitude of embittered souls wailing with sullen piteousnegs at the fate that had befallen them.—Maurice Q.

TO SEND FARM NEWS BY RADIOPHONE Regular agricultural programs' wili be sent out from the Michigan Agricultural college radio station, WKAR, after the first of the year, according to tentative plans being formulated at the college now. A new and more powerful transmitter, a gift from the Detroit News, is being installed at Must Lansing and will be ready fur use after Janury 1. This station will be able to reach all of Michigan, as well as other mid-western states, regularly, according to radio engineers. The agricultural programs, planned directly for farmers, will probably be .sent out once a week, the programs being planned by the college extension division. - o - Machine Put$ on Record Development of Plants A wonderful machine has been invented which measures the growth of ! ; low price of milk, at the other end of ; plants.

Greek City Once Home of the Apostle Paul Scholars state that St. Paul's short epistle to Titus was written during his short period of freedom after his first imprisonment in Rome, but not long before his second imprisonment with which the scriptural account of the career of the great apostle terminates. In the twelfth verse of the third chapter St. Paul directs Tltua to- come to him at Nicopolis, "for i have determined there to winter." This Nicopolis was the celebrated city of Kpirus. It was known as the "City of Victoria" and was built by the emperor Augustus in memory of his naval victory at Actlum over the combined forces of Antony und Cleopatra. This victory pructically made Octavius later Augustus, the ruler of the Human empire. The battle of Actiura was fougbt in the year 31 B. C, and four years later Octavlus was proclaimed emperor with the title of Augustus. NTcopolls stood on a peninsula on the west coast of Greece and on one side of the peninsula was the bay of Actlum, the scene of the hattle thut takes its name from that of the bay. According to tradition, It was at Nicopolis that St. Paul was made a prisoner for the second time and carried to Rome.

The morning after the sale the pis reappeared in its old sty, havm- escaped from Its new quarters during the night.' The homing instinct Is stronger in tho-pig than in most animals. An instjiuce similar to the above occurred in Illinois, where a pig traveled 14 miles hack to Its old home, after heing sold in a local market. Ibirwln believed the pig capable of developing the sagacity of a dog. For example, a sow belonging to a Wisconsin farmer was trained to hunt game, at which it became more expert than most pointers. The fame of ilits nninml spread far and wide, and tempting offers were made to buy it. Uecords show that pigs in former days were often used af beasts of burden, while there is ut least one wellnuthentjeated instance of a pig noinj: employed for rounding up sheep.

The mating season for most wolves Is in December and January. The young are born in burrows usually excavated by the wolves themselves. During the period of confinement the male feeds the female. There are generally from four to six cubs in a litter. They are blind for 21 days and are suckled for about two months. At the end >f one month they are able to eat half digested flesh disgorged by the mother. j Thoy usually quit their pnrents *n Noj vember or December, just before the ; pairing season, when they nre iess than a year old, but frequently the young remain together six or eight months longer.

Crop Values Increase $500,000,000 • # ; v . WASHINGTON.—The gross income from agricultural products ID the United States for the crop year 1924-1925 will exceed by half a bllllou dollars the total for the preceding year, according to the- annual report of the late secretary of agriculture, Henry C. Wallace. The report was transmitted to the President hy Secretary Gore, who explained that, although Mr. Wallace had not seen the nnrd draft, it was prepared under his direction. American agriculture la In the best position it has held since 1920, according to the report. Prices of many crops are at the highest point In four yean, and costs of production have declined from the high point of the depression period. This year's harvest was, in many respects, the finest In five years. The showing in 1024, says the report, brings agricultural prosperity nearer, although the Improvement It represents has not yet lasted long enough to produce any marked betterment in the finances of the farmer. The total acreage In all crops la 1824 U estimated to have been about •70,000,000 acres. This was a decline Of about 3,900,000 acres from the area planted In 1923 and a decline of 6,000,- 000 acres from the area planted In 1919, when the last census was taken. I s continuation, the report says: "Though the crop story of 1924 spells improvement to agriculture as a whole, the improvement will not be shared equally by all sections of the farm population," Wheat growers stand to gain the greater share ofdthls year's prosperity, the report indicates. Forecasting the ) probable division of the increased agricultural Income, Secretary Wallace reported as follows: "Grain producers, who had a cash income from sales In 1923 of about $920,000,000, may earn this year approximately $1,210,000,000. Wheat growers in hard winter and spring wheat areas will gain more than other wheat growers. "Corn in October was bringing 21 to 35 cents a bushel more than in October, 1923. but corn growers will have less corn to sell this year, owing to a reduction both in the yield and the Quality of the crop. "At the present price level, the cash income of hog producers during the 1924-1925 hog marketing season should be equal to that of last year, notwithstanding a prospective reduction 1A marketing of not less than 20 per cent. "Although current cotton prices are below those of last year, the large cot ton crop should enable the South to hold its relatively satisfactory position. Uncle Sam Taking Census of Farmers FOB the first time In its history the United States Is raking a census of agriculture midway between the decennial census years. This census, provided for by act of congress, involves the enumeration of between 6,500,000 and 7,000,000 farms, the employment of 212 supervisors and about 18,000 enumerators, and an expenditure of $8,000,000. It began December 1 and will be finished in Janu- Bossing this job is just one extra chore which congress has put on William If. Steuart. administrative officer of the biggest statistical office In the world, the bureau of the census, who has served Uncle Sam for 44 years. taking a part of growing Importance In • m y census since 1880. When you mention the "census," not one-half of 1 per cent of the people have any idea of the work Involved. There are upward of 115,000.000 persons tn this country, and the census counts each one, makes out a card for each on which It puts 27 facts about each, and then analyzes and tabulates these 27 facts about 115,000,000 persons In at least fifty different ways. Correlation of facts has made it necessary for the bureau to Invent and construct special electrically driven tabulating machine*. The last census gave employment to some 100,000 persons, most of them for only a few months, but many.of them for several years. In the last census there were 2.558,- 000,000 cards put through the tabulating machines, which would have required the services of hundreds of thousands of clerks by the old hand method of tabulation In vogue during the early years of Mr. Steuart's service. Preliminary to gathering this census, the bureau has sent a bundle of blanks to each of the 44,915 rural free delivery mall carriers and the 10,840 starroute carriers to be handed to tha farmers. The bureau of the census is employing farmers themselves to take the agricultural census. "It Is a farmer's Job and for the farmer's benefit," Mr. Steuart explains. Federal Surveys Reveal Much Potash *v ;T NORMOUS potash reserves, certain, It is declared, to free the 'American farmer from danger of foreign . exploitation, are rein a progress report of federal ta .tie American Chemical society by Dr. J.

T h e greensands of New Jersey, the potash shales of Georgia, the leucltes of Wyoming and the alunltes of Utah contain in the aggregate," the report asserts, "inexhaustible quantities of potash, and methods of recovering It therefrom are now much nearer solution than is generally recognized.

FREDERICK R. GREEN Editor of "HEALTH* X-RAY FOR WHOOPING COUGH y HOME-MADE CANDIE3 This Is the time of the year when a box of good candy Is appreciated. The following are a few good ones worth trying: Butterscotch.— Take two cupfuis of g r a n u l a t e d v s u g a r, one-half cupful of molasses, one cupful of butter and cook unt& the mixture forms a hard crack in cold water. Put one cupful of chopped peanuts in the !>ottom of a well-buttered dripping pan and pour over the boiling hot sirup. When cool mark Into squares and break apart. Divinity Pudge.—Tdke two cupfuis of sugar, two-thirds of a cupful of corn sirup, one-third cupful of water, boil wfthout stirring until It forms a brittle /hall In cold water. Pour the tu>t sfrup over two welf-beaten egg whites and one-half cupful of seedless raisins, one-half cupful of chopped walnuts and a teaspoonful of vanilla. Pour into a greased pan and when cool cut into squares. Raisin Fudge,—Put one-half cupful of milk, two cupfuis of sugar, one square of unsweetened chocolate In a pan and cook without stirring until the mixture forms a soft ball in cold water. Remove from the Are, add n tablespoonful of butter, and cool. Then add one-half cupful of raisins, one teaspoonful of vanilla and beat until the mixture Is creamy. Pour Into buttered pan and mark into squares as soon a^ it is coot enough. Chocolate Dellgh*-—Break one pound of chocolate into the top of a double boiler, melt, and add two unbeaten eggs, 'stir until combined. Add one cupful of blanched almonds, si Iced* thin and beat well, turn on a buttered plate and mold into one large ball Whe*> partly chilled form into small balls and roll them in sifted powdered sugar. Peanut Brittle,—Shell a quart of peanuts, remove the brown skins and roll or chop, not too fine. Put one pound of sugar into a perfectly smooth omelet pan, place over the Are and stir constantly until melted to a s i r u p ; add the nurmeats with one-fourth teaspoonfut of soda and pour into a wellbuttered, dripping pan.. Break Into pieces when cold. Sultana Fudge.—Melt two tablespoonfuls of butter, add. two cupfuis of sugar, one-fourth cupful of mola DURING the winter of 1923 the* was an unusual amount of whoop* ing cough in this country. Ordinarily this disease kills about ten thousan* babies a year. This is bad enough but every four or five years for some reason, it la particularly prevalent Evidently, 1923 was one of theas years. Existing methods of treatment are o little use. Once contracted, the di» ,ease runs its course of from four to nine weeks. The frequent spasms o coughing, exhaust and weaken th# child, who often develops pneumonU and dies, indirectly but none the lew actually, a victim of whooping eoiigh We do not know the exact cause ffli this disease. We do know, however that In most cases, the thymus gland located in front of the bronchial tube* and trachea Is considerably enlarged This gland, which corresponds to tni sweetbread in the calf, is large during early life, but shrinks after the fir*, fifteen years, until in the adult* then Is left only a fibrous cord. It has long been surmised that this enlarged gland, pressing on the air tubes, might have something to do with the spasms oi coughing. While treating these enlarged gland* with X-ray, it was noticed that, soar after the light treatments were begun, the spells of coughing were relieved. So Dr. Ralph Leonard, of Boston, decided to test the value of X-ray treatment in a large number of baby pa> tients in the Boston Floating hospital. Four hundred babies with whooping cough were selected and carefully examined, so that there might be no question about the existence of th« disease. Two hundred were also carefully examined, as so-called control 2ases. All were given the same cart under the same surroundings, except that four hundred were given X-ray treatment, and two hundred were not. Of the children treated, 75 per cent showed marked Improvement. In chfl dren under one year, 100 per cent were benefited. Used In the early days of the disease, the X-ray does not prevent the cough ing nor does It shorten the disease. In children under two years, howWef; those not given X-ray treatment, thelTv disease laBted nine weeks, while those given the X-ray treatment were well In five weeks. As the death rate Is higher the longer the disease lasts, this shortening of the duration doubtless saved many babies' lives. Tills number Is by far the larges* that has ever heen treated by X-ray \fter long experience and carefui study, the opinion of all the doctor. on the staff of the hospital was tba the X-ray wns the best means at pres •^nt known for controlling the spasm' in whooping couph and for shortening the duration of the disease. \ SPECTATORITIS O^OM MARSHALL said that wha* * this country needed was a good five-cent cigar. What ft needs more is a good game In which anyone and everyone can take part. We are suffering as a nation from what the health commissioner of one of our largest cities very aptly calls *'spectatorltls." There are too few playlfijT and too many occupying grandstand and blencher seats. During the beautiful days of summer, thousands of men, most of them middle aged, many of them too fat and with muscles that are crying for exercise, sit on the benches and watch a few other men play baseball. When fall comes and the baseball season closes, the same men sit in the grandstand and watch 22 men play football. Or It may be a wrestling match or a boxing contest' or a six-day bicycle race or a billiard tournament. A few men are doing, the work. Thousands are looking on. The players are trained to tha minute. To be a star baseball player or a crack halfback, they have developed their bodies far beyond tha ^ needs of present-day life. This means ; that their hearts are twice as large an ; ' they need and that by middle life* U when they ought to be in their prime* *•".' they have fatty instead of muscula- " ' hearts. Athletes generally die young. The looker-on doesn't take any chances of a fatty h e a r t He has his fat around his waist His muscles are flabby and he doesn't have a good sweat from muscular exertion once a yoar. 4 So the 18 ball players or the 22 football men overwork and shorten tketr lives to amuse the thousands of spectators - who underwork and shorts* theirs. ' Sounds silly, doesn't tt?. Tt Is. Tba object of game*; Is not to prodjben stars, any more than the object of eating Is to produce met who lan^eat four ttmas as much food aa the ararage man.

Eooneaborough, Symbol of Frontier America Boonesborough Is more than Ken* ; tucky'a roost famous fort It Is a national landmark wbose palisaded walls symbolize the American frontier and Its name stunds as a monument to the memory of Daniel Boone, the one great American pioneer. Brief as was Its existence, there are few forts in America which have a more romantic history. In 1775 Col. Richard Henderson, a North Carolina land speculator, sent Daniel Boone to survey a road into Kentucky, the "Dark and Bloody Ground," and to build a fort there. Boone set out with 20 men and, after several skirmishes with hostile Indians, he reached his goal April 1, and on April 29 began building a fort. Since Boonesborough was typical of ail frontier forts, it is worthy of description. At each of the four corners was a two-story blockhouse. A series little cabins placed close together, with their roofs sloping inward, was built along the sides, and the space in between these cabins was filled up with palisades. There were heavy gates in front and back and the whole fort inclosed a space 280 feet long and 150 feet wide. The walls, which were about twelve feet high, were loopholed for rifle fire, as were the cabins, and there was hardly a nail or piece of iron used in the whole fort. From the date of its establishment there was always something thrilling taking place. In July, 1776, occurred the capture of the Boone and Callaway girls and their romantic rescue soon afterwards. The next year the Indians attacked Boonesborough and Simon Kenton made his famous rescue of Daniel Boone. In September of that year the British and Indians again besieged the fort after they had called out the frontiersmen for a council, and their treacherous attack under the white flag had failed. During this siege the Indians tried to get into the fort by digging under it. "What are you red rascals doing there?" one old frontiersman yelled to the savages in their own tongue. "Digging," was the return yell. "Blow you all to the devil j soon; what you do?" "Oh," was the , hides. In 1923 there were 4,000,000 cheerful reply, "we're digging to meet j new cars added to the congestion and you and intend to bury 500 or you." less than 7,000 miles of paved road Such were the incidents which make j added. The first part of 1924, factories B. M. Taylor of San Francisco, has devised a way to cut up enough cordwood In a couple of hours to last him during the entire cold spell. The apparatus Is comparatively simple. A stout rigid wooden stand is built for the saw and is connected up by a leather belt running from the rear wheel of the car to the pulley. To attach the belt it is first necessary to remove the rear fender, Jack up the wheel, take off the tire and rim and substitute a ruaa padded with leather so that the belt will adhere to the wheel as it revolves. The motor is speeded up to from 20 to 25 miles an hour in high gear and the wheel Jacked up from the floor Is the only one that will go into motion which develops a speed of 1,800 to 2,000 revolutions a minute. MORE AND WIDER ROADS DEMANDED System That Few Years Ago Appeared Ample Is Now Entirely Inadequate. Public need for more and wider roads Is constantly growing more acute. To prove it, try to drive In or out of any sizable town. The lanes are crowded with 15,000,000 motor veup the history of Boonesborough. After the Indian wars were over this pioneer station lost Its Importance and never became the metropolis of the state of Kentucky, as It once promised to do. Today Boonesborough Is noted as a pleasure resort where hundreds go every year to—play—a strange contrast to the grim scenes of savage hatred and bloodshed It witnessed in the days of Daniel Boone. were turning out SO miles of motor cars a day as against 25 miles of concrete for them to drive over. Road System Too Small. It would seem that the dream of a road system that a few years ago appeared ample was too small. Present road conditions forecast a huge widening program ns well as parallel roads l i n l i i 11 i i i i r n 11 n i l 11 Cold Water Likely to Crack Hot Cylinders :: In the main there is no danger in pouring cold water into the cooling system of the engine, no matter bow hot the latter may be. But if so much of the water has been lost that the tops of the* cylinders are uncovered, the engine should be allowed to cool off before the water system is filled. The reaBon is obvious; if cold water is poured directly on the hot cylinders where they are exposed, there Is danger of cracking them, owing to the contraction due to the rapid cooling effect of the water. I I I I II M I I 1 I I I 1 I I I I M M I ' It Kept the Northwest Under Our Flag One February day In 1779 the British flag was hauled down from above Fort Sackvllle on the Wabash river in Indiana. George Rogers Clark had won the old Northwest for the United States. One August day In 1813, an army advancing under the English banner against Fort Stephenson on the Sandusky river in Ohio reeled back in defeat before the withering lire of Its garrison of Kentucky riflemen. George Croghan, a nephew of George Rogers Clark, had saved the old Northwest for the United States. FII.L Stephenson barely deserves the name of fnrt at all. It was only a stockade built at the head of navigation on the Sandusky river, but It was important because It commanded the approach to two Important basos of supplies for Harrison's army In the War of 1812. When General Proctor with GOO British regulars, accompanied by 3,000 Indians under Tecumseh, appeared In northern Ohio, Gen. William Henry Harrison ordered Capt. George Croghan to evacuate this post. But Croghan believed that with his force of 160 men he could hold It against Proctor, and his confidence was shored by his six youthful subalterns, none of them more than twenty-one years of age. Harrison reluctantly gave his permission for the attempt to be made and Croghan set to work to strengthen the old fort as much as possible. He had only one piece of artillery. a little six-pounder, which the soldier affectionately called "Old Bess,*' and when Proctor appeared before the fort with a force of 1,200 Indians and regulars and some heavy artillery, a successful defense seemed hopeless. But Croghan refused Proctor's summons to surrender and was not even frightened at the Briton's threat that he might not be able to control nl« Indians if he had to storm the fort. After bombarding the fort all night Proctor se«t a storming party of 300 men against the walls and although Croghan's men met the attackers with a deadly rifle Are, they came on bravely. Just as they sprang Into the ditch surrounding the fort, a masked porthole was thrown open In one of the blockhouses and "Old Baas" poured out a veritable-blast of death upon the British. That proved the deciding stroke .In the battle. Proctor, retreated precipitately. The American | supply depots were saved, Ohio was spared the horrors of an Invasion hy the Indians and historians generally agree tBat U M sncceaafnl defense aved the lko*k A Crowded Road Nsar Chicago. to those that lire now overburdened with traffic. All along, the thought has been that in an automotive way, the country had almost attained its full growth but still the factories are hard put in normal times to meet the orders that are placed. It is a fairly easy matter to get a car. Prices have been reduced and payments made easy. Spot delivery is about the only thing that cannot be arranged, but the purchaser who Is, willing to wait a few weeks can be a motorist. And if a new car Is not thought necessary and a used car can be made to serve, one can be picked up in the same time that it takes to buy a bat or a pair of shoes. Buying Road Not Easy.

Winter Driving Methods Are Cited in Bulletin "Keep warm and be safe," says the touring and transportation board of the American Automobile association In a special bulletin Issued from headquarters as a warning to motorists planning extensive winter tours throughout sections of the country where winter driving is becoming the rule rather than the exception. The A. A. A. board points out that carelessness in cold weather driving Is largely the result of being cold, "Keep as warm as possible when touring In cold weather, and It will be easier to observe the simple rules of caution," it urges. "These should Include suitable clothing, particularly warm gloves," says the bulletin. "Too many drivers are handicapped by numb finpers during their winter trips so that if they are called upon to recrank the motor in an emergency, dim the headlights or shift gears they are at a loss. "It Is foolhardy to attempt to make great mileage without sufficient stopovers for hot food. It requires more energy to fight the elements In winter, and drivers cannot afford to feel that because they are stimulated by the snappy air they can endure more strenuous driving. "Keeping warm is the first rule of keeping safe in cold weather. Closed cars are proving their value In tills connection, but even here the motorist must take the definite precautions against subjecting himself to unnecessary exposure, and thus to unnecessary hazards."

A good way to get the motor warmed up la to place a good-sized piece of newspaper over the front of the radiator. The air suction caused by the fan keeps the paper from failing off. If there is nonfreezing dope In the radiator, the water may become too hot after a few miles of driving. In this case, provide ing tha car is equipped with a selfstarter, all that la necessary Is to stop the motor and release the paper, after which the engine may again be started. In all cases the motor should be primed with gasoline in cold weather to Insure easier starting and prevent overtaxing the starter.

There are reasons for everything, says D. H. Halt, extension poultry husbandman, at Clemsos college, who points out four of the main causes of failure in the chicken game. The first cause of failure in raising poultry Is starting off on too large a scale. There are many things for a beginner to learn about the poultry business. He should start on a sinlall scale and gradually grow into the poultry game until he knows every angle of it. He should go slowly at first and then increase his business by degrees. The second reason why people are not making money in the poultry business is the purchasing of poor stock for breeding and laying purposes. Because some people have pure bred poultry does not mean that they always have the very best. The man that goes Into the poultry business should start out with the best stock possible. The third cause of poor results In raising poultry is the lack of proper equipment. A great many people will try to raise chickens when they haven't the equipment to raise them. Equipment is Just as necessary to have as the poultry itself. The equipment does not have to be expensive, but you should have the necessary things to make the handling of poultry easy; for instance a large mash hopper to hold plenty of mash, a largsj water fountain so that water can be kept before the poultry at all times, and a good poultry house that Is arranged conveniently. The fourth thing that causes failure is the lack of care and attention. If you do not love poultry and if you are not willing to give It, your time and attention, you cannot expect very much out of it. You must tike the business and be willing to s|>end 14 hours each day in caring for the poultry If you expect to make a success of It. Prevent Frosted Combs by Proper Ventilation In cold latitudes it is necessary for poultrymen to guard against frosted combs. Many people think that the best thing they can do to prevent frosted combs is to keep the henhouse closed as tightly as possible. This is a mistake for it is a fact that a moist atmosphere is much more conducive to freezing than a colder temperature when the air Is dry, says a writer in Successful Farmer. The house should he well ventilated, so that the moisture is quickly carried away and replaced with fresh air. Your poultry house should have enough open space on the south to equal one-fourth the total floor space, and If It does not have that much open space, it will pay you to do a little remodeling. This open space should be covered with muslin. For this purpose a medium grade Is best, one that will prevent wind from blowing through, and still permit a slow circulation of air. The back of the poultry house will naturally be the warmest and best protected, so It will be wise to have the droppings boards and roosts at the back of the building. Another Important thing to remember during cold weather is to keep the fowls busy. If you go to the poultry house very early In the morning, you will see that the birds get off the roosts and stand around on the floor. If there is scratch feed scattered in the litter, they will go to picking Just as soon as It Is light enough, thus starting the blood in rapid circulation and lessening the danger of frozen combs. If you allow the fowls to drink ice water oti a frosty morning, it will not only lower the egg production but the males are likely to freeze their wattles.

The meteorological section of the union unanimously adopted resolutions expressing its sympathy ^with a movement for the improvement of the calendar, without stating w i t h deflniteness the character of the changes. The final meeting of all the sections of the union approved these resolutions. It is stated that the International Astronomical onion also favors a reform. The subject of calendar reform. Is now under consideration by a committer of the League of Nations. Willis H. Booth of the By JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAN 'OW does the idea of a new calendar strike you—a strictly up-to-date affair, with a year of 13 months and fixings to correspond? No? Wait a minute. • Suppose you are a dealer In eggs or fish, or run an Incubator, or are a florist or make women's gowns or hate—that being the case, wouldn't you like to have Easter Sunday come the same time every year, Instead of dodging all around the calendar from March 22 to April 25? None of these? Well, anyway, let's take a look at the proposed new calendar! Maybe It does contain some change that will suit you to a TV It's sure that the business world Is not at all satisfied with the present calendar. Really, there seems to be a demand all over the world for a system less complex and confusing than the .Gregorian calendar, with Its unequal ,months and the constantly moving dates on which the days of the week occur. Several new calendars have been ^proposed, but only two are being seriously considered. One Is an American calendar and Is being promoted by Prof. Charles F. Marvin, head of the United States Weather bureau, Forest Ray Moulton, professor of astronomy at the University of Chicago, and others. Professor Moulton outllnes-the new calendar thus: A month would-be added to the cal- •ad**?tfrcm#fc=t*# yew—W©uJd -*t«i have 365 davs-'-or 265¼ to be exact— under a plan which has been put for- .ward and which the Leasue of Na- 'tlons is to tnvtte the world to adopt. Th«_ plan, briefly, i t to divide the year Into 13 months of 28 days each • That makes 364 days. The 365th day •will not belong1 to any month or week, and H ha* been suggested that It be . called"-"Humanity day," a holiday to be observed by the people of all nation*. Every four years there would b*, of course, an extra day. This too, would be entirely Independent of any month and week. Under this plan every month would begin with the same day of the week, either Sunday or Monday. In the same way, a given day of every month would fall on the same day-of the week. For Instance, the fourth of every month would always be a Wednesday. Aside from the Opposition which every change or asw movement inevitably meets, there^ars few valid objections to this new calendar. The most important Is that with an uneven number of months, the year cannot be so conveniently divided into Quarters or halves. Many business corporations pay interest or dividends either quarterly or 'semiannually, for Instance, on the 16th of January, April, July and October, or the 1st of January and July. Actually, taass dates are not an equal number of days apart. From January 1 to July 30 Is only 181 days, while from July V to December 81 is U4 days. Under tfc* TMwr calendar ft would bo possible to divide the year into four equal quarters, sino* the Sssth day is hot included. The only disadvantage is that the first day of each quarter would not tail -on tit* same day of the month*. Another possible obSectlon it that, sittes the m t h day of ih#-year is not counted as a part of any week, the succession of the Sabbath, every seventh d&y, la broken. It has been unofficially Intimated by most of the churches, however, that this Interference of the Sabbatical succession creates no serious difficulty. The American Equal Month Calendar Association of Minneapolis has indorsed a calendar which seems to be the very same thing, except that it begins with "Monday" Instead of "Sunday or Monday." Here's the arrangement : It divides the days of the year Into 18 months of 28 days each. The additional month thue created Is to be Inserted between June and July. New Tear's day Is to have no week-day name, but to be designated on the calendar simply aa "January Naught." When Leap year occurs, the additional day will also have no week-day name designation, but be known simply as "Leap Year Day" and be placed between the last day of June and the first day of July as a full holiday. The year is to begin with Monday, the first day of the month. Monday would not only become the first day of every year but also th© nrst day of every month, every wea~ and every quarter for all time; and the other days would follow In natural sequence. As a consequence, calendars would become unnecessary and in time obsolete, because the days and dates automatically take care of themselves. All business statistics would bo worked ~>ut upon 13 equal monthly periods of 28 days each, each month containing exactly, trie same number of Saturdtya And Sundays^ ...'_ The second calendar—assuming the foregoing plans to be practically the same thing—Is known as the "Swiss Plan" and Is under serious consideration in Europe. The plan : This involves dividing the year Into 12 months, of four quarters of three months each, the arrangements for the first quarter to repeat themselves precisely in euch of the other quarters; the first month of each quarter to have 30 days: the second month 30 days, and the third month 31 days. This gives 91 days to each quarter, or 364 days In all. the remaining day in ordinary years to be New Year's day andNto have no other descriptive title. When Leap year occurs. It will be injected as an additional holiday following December 31, or in the middle of the year. In this plan the first month of each quarter will begin on Monday In every year. The second month in every quarter will always begin on Wednetday, and the third month on Friday. Sunday will never fall on the first, the fifteenth or the thirtieth day of the month. The last day of each quarter will always fall on Sunday. The 30- day months will have four Sundays and the SI-day months five. Sundays. The number of week-days'ln every month, therefore, will be 26, and holidays will always fall on the same day of the week. This plan Involves practically no change excepting the elimination of New Year's and Leap Year days from the present method of computation and observing them as wholly separate holidays without date. Henry J. Cox, senior meteorologist of the United States Weather bureau, laid the Marvin calendars plan before the International Geodetic and Geophysical union at its recent meeting, *>A^*IK£t United States Chamber of Commerce is the American member of this committee. A noted French ustronoraer is chairman and other members have been appointed by the archbishop of Canterbury, the Holy See and the ecumenical patriarch. The Minneapolis pian has been Indorsed by the government of Canada and the Royal Society of Canada and has been referred to the British government for favorable consideration. A little study of the Marvin plan calendar shows Its many advantages. Think how ll> would lighten the task of the schoolboy, struggling with an interest "example." People would get new blrthduys and new birth months —which might be quite exciting. No man need worry over when his note at the bank was coming due—he'd know. And so on. Some will think it's all wrong to change a time-honored institution like ihe calendar. They should read^up or their history. Why, it was only last year that the EaRtern Orthodox Christians—"Holy Oriental Orthodox Catholic Apostolic church"— adopted Jhe Gregorian calendar and even now eight million Unlates, Including 500,000 In the United States, are still sticking to the Julian calendar. Julius Caesar was responsible for the Julian calendar. About 2,000 years ago he discovered-that the Roman calendar was Just w days ahead of the sun. So he told the world to mark time till the sun caught on. Then be proclaimed Leap year and February 29 every four years. JnttaflT was too liberal with his leap yean and In 1582 Pope Gregory x m found that the Julian calendar was 11 days behind the sun. So he doctored 9 the Julian calendar jumping shot* 11 days and renamed It the calendar. Part of the world a< the new calendar but England and n t American colonies did not get around to it until 1752. Japan, China, Turkey, Russia and Rumania have only recently adopted the Gregorian eaten* dar. rtCturf Story Feel Stiff and Achy After Every Cold? Do You Have Constant Backache?

The Allisons, American passenger* on their way home to the I'nlted States, were on the French liner at the time of the sinking of the vessel. When but two days away from the French port a fire broke our In the hold. which proved fatal to the ship. Now the Allisons were en route to Knjrland, Thifc time, they were to sail on a lirlt- Ish liner from London. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Allison were passing the time, which hung heavily on their hands during their Journey to London, discuK.sinj? previous events with their daughter, Felice. She, young, perhaps In her twenties, presenting quite a striking spectacle with her black curly hair, and her dark brown eyes, was saying: "It seems to me If Wllmer were saved, he has surely had ample time to notify ns." | "Did you call at the American Express office in Paris before we left?" inquired Mrs. Allison. "Yes, and the clerk Informed me Wllmer Daggett's mall had not been called for in the last month.

The fact that his mall is not called for ought to be sure enough proof he is not In Paris." 1 "I will never forget," she began, pondering over previous happenings. "Wllmer, as I last saw him standing on the deck, his huge frame, calm and serene, silhouetted against the chaos round about him In the huge, brilliant mass of the burning liner, as he ihelped crazed and fainting women and children Into the lifeboats, speeding •them to safety. I couldn't bear to look any longer. When I did glance back again, the nose of the flaming «hlp was buried far Into the ocean.

Then started a frantic search of the crowd which refused to disclose the face of her Wllmer. In vain did her gaze pierce every nook and corner of the salon during the performance. She wished she could have had something to say about the printing of the programs. She would certainly have arranged it differently, so she would not have had to wait so long for this one most important of all the selections. Every one seemed to he dragging out his part terribly. What would this Wllmer Daggett look Ilk"? She could not locate the face of the one she sought any place. Finally, a French door ov^r at one side of the room opened to Admit Wllmer Daggett, as his selection WSR announced from the platform. There he stood, the same old Wllmer Daggett, Felice was so happy she couldn't tell which one was singing the loader, she "r Wllmer. In fact, she concluded, It wns a well-balanced duet. The program hadn't statpd It, but that is what It turned out to be. It had evidently been a huge success with the audience, for they insisted on an encore. Felice never realised what a wonderful voice she had been endowed with until now. Whdt torture! She had not figured on ail these encores. Why did he not pick out something shorter? To be sure, he didn't know he was keeping Felice waiting. Ah! At last he was leaving the platform. Hardly knowing what she did. she flew Into his arms. The concert held no further attraction for Felice and Wilmer. As soon as they were away from the crowd, and Wilmer had recovered from the shock of the surprise. Felice commenced her siege of questions. "Where have you been? We thought you had .gone down with the boat. We could get no trace of you In Paris. Just think: we searched the city and surrounding towns with no avail. How does It happen?" "You see I was hurt a little that night of the disaster," Wilmer explained: "an English freighter came along the next morning and picked up our boat load, rn it was only one other passenger -besides myself, and the rest were members of the ship's crew. When we arrived In England, I was put in a London hospital, where I stayed for almost three weeks. They told me I had some broken" bones, I seemed to feel all right." "That is jnst like you, Wllmer," br»ke forth Felice, protestiagly. *T thought you must have sailed about two or three weeks ago." continued Wilmer. "And there I spent tboee weeks trying to find out whetber you were dead or alive." "Anyway, Fetlee>w Wltoer added, •lipping his ana arotmd her. "by seam ^goo4-fortune we wera f*Jd*0 to the e e e * boat, and bere we are 10911119. An intermission of several minutes followed. The next afternoon, New Year's day, found Felice and Wilmer on the deck watching for fhe New York harbor. As darkness began to close in on them they could discern a few lights in the distance. Then the lights outlined shapes and before long, New York with Its many skyscrapers and multitude of people, loomed not far before them. They watched the wonderful skyline as it grew plainer and more complicated each minute. As they came closer, that most magnificent of all magnificent sights presented itself, silhouetted against the darkness and lesser lights of the buildings. "In her cloak of ermine, a recent gift from the clouds for the Christmas festivities, with all the dignity, majesty and grandeur a woman can possess, stands this huge figure of Liberty, a symbol to all those who Th«y Watcherf the Wonderful Skyline as It Grew Plainer. may come Into our country, of the stundards which our fellow countrymen uphold, Felice," breathed Wilmer, awe-stricken at the sight of this old familiar statue. "Think how this sight must Impress the foreigner who Is landing here for the first time, I never saw that statue In quite that light before. It is gorgeous, supreme. Isn't it wonderful? Felice, here we are together, arriving safely this time, to start the New Year rights In the good old D. S. A." **(®, 1$14, Wettern N«w«p»per Union.)

The careful man who, satisfied with a certain four per cent, puts his savings in some strong bank like this bank is rich in rest and free i r o n financial cares. In the long run he will also be richer in dollars. Truly one might better sleep on four per cent than lie awake on six or seven. If you have not already placed your savings in this old savings bank, do so now. i PINCKNEY STATE BANK I ..Officers** C. L. SIGLER President THOS. READ -.-Vice-president A. H.

He indorsed the conclusion of the special advisory committee on reclamation, embodied In a bill which has passed the house and is pending before the senate. All the changes urged by the committee would be helpful, Doctor Mead asserted, "but if legislation stops with these, the amended reclamation act will not provide a working plan for the development of new projects. The reason for this is the fact that many of the beat opportunities for future reclamation are where the land Is now privately owned?' Discussing the committee's co-ordinated plan of settlement, under which the government would be able to purchase or control all privately owned lands m excess of homestead units, Commissioner Mead asserted, that if control of settlement were made possible his bureau could go ahead with development, "certain that the future settler could get bis farm at its actual value. *'It could proceed to subdivide excess lands into farms of proper slse, could adjust the prices of land to agree with productive values, and could give long-time payments with low interest" Touching on the future need for state co-operation and state aid in the settlement and agricultural development of projects, the report recites that the state has an even greater interest than the nation in the character of the people who make homes on this land, since "the foundation of the state's future civilization is laid in these new communities." During the year the bureau irrigated 1,218,^00 acres of land covered by project census statistics. On ths cropped area of 1,179,870 acres, crops were grown having a gross value of more than $65,000,000, or $55 an acre cropped, as compared with a gross value of $50,000,000 and $43 an acre In the preceding year. Including land furnished in whole or in part with water from works of the bureau, the gross value of crops produced In 1923 amounted to more than $102,000,000, as compared with $88,000,000 in 1922, DR. FREDERICK R. GREEN Editor of ^HEALTH* UME BURNS THE EYE "Walk to Work Club" of the Capital PRESIDENT COOLIDGE might be named by acclamation president of Washington's *Walk-to-Work club," which boasts an illustrious membership—were It not for the fact that his place of work and his place of residence are separated by only a length of covered corridor. The honor then goes by default to Chief Justice William Howard Taft, who tramps a good mile and a half to the Capitol every day, rwitb Charles Evans Hughesr 'wcretarx.ifaf Atate, tying as "runner-up." Although debarred by efrcw»Btances from walking to work, President Coolidge takes his daily walk as regularly as be takes his breakfast; and, not being given to golf or games of any sort, relies on thje form of exercise to keep him tn trim. When be first was elevated to the Presidency, bis fondness for early morning strolls was a great trial to White House attendants and the Inevitable secret service men without whom the President cannot stir. Of late, however, Mr. Coolldge seems to prefer the afternoons for his walks. He prefers the city streets and occasionally- strolls down F street at a time when that busy thoroughfare Is crowded with afternoon shoppers. He selects a different route almost every day, for he dislikes to be noticed too much or made a fuss over. Although he never fcurrles and gives rather the Impression of strolling, President Coolldge manages to cover a lot of ground In a given time. Mrs. Coolldge, too, Is a good walker, but she prefers a more leisurely gait and, unless she has shopping In view, which she usually does on foot, her promenades are likely to be In Potomac park or in the woods In the course of a motor ride In the country. Secretary Hughes always has been a famous walker and. now that his duties leave him so little time for recreation, he has solved the problem of getting enough exercise by walking to the State department In the mom* (ng, home for luncheon at noon, back to the office afterward and horns again In the evening—a good six miles a day. Justice Taft In his hiking clothes li startling In the extreme. Always a fast walker, he arrives at the Capltoi in a glow and, after a shower and a rub down, changes into dignified habiliments suited to the presiding Justice of the highest tribunal of the United States.

Today the United States, which has the largest industrial population on earth, lacks a center for a historical record of the progress made In Invention, electricity and engineering. Realizing this need, a group of prominent engineers, financiers, industrial magnates, educators and publiceplrited men have united and- formed a corporation under the taws of the District of Columbia. The name of the society Is "The National Museum of Engineering and Industry." Dr. Ellho Thomson is president. B. P. J. Porter, known as the father of the factory fire drill, is secretary. The honorary members are Dr. Charles W. Bitot, Gen. George W. Goethala, Melvffie B. Stone and Charles M. Schwab. The list of the names of members nm the gamut of such well-known men as Cleveland H. Dodge, Robert W, de Forest, fioward Elliott Otto H. Kama, Thomas W. Lamont, Mortimer 8ehlff, Thomas A. Edison, Dr. John H» Wnley, Orville Wright and Fredertdt * Patteeson quietiy but effectively the plans for the National Museum of Engineering and industry have been made and the money is being raised. Ten millions of dollars are required. The first million has already been contributed. The other nine will be raised by contribution. It is expected that American Industry will give generously money and exhibits. The federal government already has set aside a tentative site for the museum on the Mall In Washington at the request of the Smithsonian institution, through its secretary, Dr. Charles D. Walcott The museum building, for which the plans have been drafted in active cooperation with-the Smithsonian institution after a year's study of the great foreign museums by an expert sent abroad for the purpose, will cost, according to estimates, $4,500,000. This building will be one of the finest buildings ln.H)e world and the finest museum building. It will be the largest museum In existence, measuring 1,150 feet by 250 and having a door area of 27 acres. Ttoee and a half million dollars will be set aside as a permanent endowment for current operation of the museum and $2,000,000 will be set aside to make copies of exhibits to be tent to offspring museums and to pay the expenses of transporting the traveling exhibits, $ THE eye is one of the most sensitive organs of the body. Everyone knows how painful a speck of dust or a grain of sand in the eye can be. Any foreign body in the eye causes Irritation, pain and congestion. Wben the foreign substance also causes burning of the eyeball, It is not only painful but dangerous to the eye and the eyesight One of the most dangerous substances which can get Into the eye Is quicklime. Such accidents are not uncommon among bricklayers, plasterers and others who handle this dangerous substance. As Ruwsuy, a recognized authority says, "in case of quicklime, the severity of the burn la due to the fact that the lime usually remains for a considerable period In contact with the tissues and its powerful escharotlc action hu« time to take effect. Tlie slightest particle of It, entering the eye, gives rise to the most intense Irritation, leading to spasmodic closure of the eyelids and tlie copious secretion of tears, a combination of circumstances which is most favorable in ordinary cases for the expulsion of a foreign body, but, which In the case of lime Is most unfortunate, because by the firm closure of the eyelids the lime Is pressed agulnst the eyeball, while the tears, which ordinarily wash out any foreign body, slack the lime, producing heat which Increases the destruction of the eyeball. The lime. in burning leaves a crust on the eyeball made up of calcium carbonate, an Insoluble opaque substunce, which prevents the light from passing through the cornea and so interferes with vision." In some cases in which small pieces of lime have gotten into the eye, vision has only been partially affected but, if any large amount of lime has come in contact with the e,veball, the result may he nearly complete loss of vision or even total bllmlnefia. Loss of sight is a serious misfortune to anyone, but to a working man it Is a calamity and may convert an able-bodied tradesman into a dependent pauper. The treatment of lime burns consists in the removal of the lime HS soon as possible. This is best done by a stream of cold water. Many solutions have been used to nfutrallte and dissolve the lime. Milk, olive oil, sugar solutions and other substances havtj been tried with but little success. The best results have been gotten from neutral solutions of ammonium chloride. This substance neutralizes tlie lime, forming a soluble crust which can be dissolved and washed out. In order to do this properly, however, the eye must first be deadened by a cocain solution and the ammonium chloride must be freshly prepared. This makes it necessary for such treatment to be carried out by an experienced oculist. In all cases of lime burns of the eye, tlie eye should be immediately washed out with cold water and the patient should be sent at once to a competent specialist Such treatment may save the eyesight and prevent the victim from being crippled for life.

Be said: "All publicity is exactly the siuije. The problem ts to get an idea from one mind to another. Medical knowledge Is to human life what engineering is to a mechanic or a knowledge of automobile construction Is to an automobile owner. The difficulty Is to get the knowledge of the expert into the mind of an untrained person in such a simple way that the reader will understand it and will use it so as to add to his life, usefulness and production ; so that he may avoid disease and suffering. Long elaborate articles will not do this. Short practical articles each day, carrying a few facts, plainly and simply presented, are of far more value.

Sound ReMoetion Helps Kind to Compr*h*n4 vThaoever a gonad impinges on a flat vertical surface of any appreciable area it la reflected much the game as light—not echoed. An echo la aiao a reflection, but of a pronounced type; but the sort of reflection to which I refer takes place at | distances shorter than necessary for I an echo, and results in merely the I addition to the original sound of a characteristic quality that could prob- ; ubly be classified as an overtone. : Poles, treea, walla, buildings, ears, j any fairly flat, fairly vertical, good- ' sized surface, will produce this effect, j The seeing rarely, If ever, are aware j of It, of course, They do not need to \ be. But the blind not only are aware of It but make thoroughly practical nse of It for sqjch everyday purposes i as locating objects or finding, for example, the gaps in a' long line of parked cars. When a blind man taps ' his walking stick on the pavement or i shuffles his feet he Is more often causing sound* which can be reflected than trying to determine his location by touch. ; This utilization of one of hearing's ! possibilities generally wasted is also one responsible for the f'xth sense myth, and only one of the several witys in which this sense when developed serves the blind.—Charles MuGee Adams In the Atlantic Monthly.

In most cases the beginning is an egg which, lying on the bottom, produces a beautiful tree-like growth. The "tree" fastens itself to the bottom and brings forth buds which, when flpe, drop off und develop into Jellysh. The iutter in turn lay egg* and he process is repeated. Moat of the very large species have different way of reproducing them- £jselves. The egg Is set free in the water and develops Into a pear-shaped larva, which for a while swims about rapidly, beinjf provided with halrlik** appendages that serve the purpone of ears. Then the larva settles down, anchors Itself to the bottom, increus»'s Jn slso rapidly, and finally splits up into thin, flat discs which swim off and grow op mto large Jellyfishes. Spik* in Body Not Fatal A spike in a boy's side, nine inches long, was removed at West London hospital, and the boy's displaced heari restored to its proper position. The boy fell from the porch of a villa on to some iron railings. One of tlio spearheaded railings broke off, leaving nine laches of metal hurled In tin hoy's side. The spike broke a rib and entered the body over the heart, btn without piercing It. None of the greni er blood vessels was pierced, owlnu to a piece of the> boy's shirt having ncled as a pad. The case was one o: I he most remarkable ever treated at the hospital, and the boy Is expected to racover. Pretty Legend About !gland in South Seas One of the most picturesque spots in beautiful Hawaii is Cocoannt Island, In Hilo harbor. This little bit of earthly paradise possesses a myth leal origin. The story runs that the deml-god Maul with his magic hook fished the island of Maul up from the sea and planned to join It to the Island of Hawaii. The plan failed because one of his brothers, who was In the canoe with him, disobeyed a command that he must not look behind, and the Island of Maul slipper! buck to Its present position on the mup, snd only a small piece thereof, Cnfnnnu Island, remained on the hunk. In this district is Konolale, the sii<; of a famous temple, Manlni, built j many centuries ago and reconstructed I in about 1160 by King Lllon. On that I occasion 24 human sacrifices were of- j fured. When Llloa died, Cmi and lii> i hnlf-hrniher Hiitftui both wanted to succeed him.

Great SkUt Required in Training oi Hawk* Various kinds of bawaa ware- trained for the purpose of falconry. *ach bird had lta own style of flying and lis own particular method oi taJMag the quarry, opinion as to which specific kind of hawk was the beat being divided. But of them all none was more generally popular than the noble peregrine— a flrat-rate flyer, docile, tractable and extremely courageous, says Capt 0. W. R. Knight, M. O, In the pastime whicb once played so great a part in the lives of the English, and to whicb reference is made in the works of such authors as Shakespeare and Scott. For grouse hawking the female, being a heavier, stronger bird than the male, Is generally used, for she is better ntteu to take and hold a strong old cock grouse. She it la who is culled "falcon,",the male being known as the "tierceP because he Is onethird less in size than the female. The art of falconry consists in persuading a naturally fierce, wild bird to do for her owner exactly what she : would do in any case in the wild ' state—in short to display at close quarters the amazing powers ot flight with which she has been equipped by : nature I If she should be so successful fn her flight as to strike her quarry, she dispatches It immediately—and In moat professional manner—a sharp bite at . the base of the skull and It is all i over. On the other hand, if the hawk j falls to come op with ber quarry—Is ! -perhaps outflowri, beaten in the a i r - she falls completely. The Intended victim disappears, doubtless rejoicing, Into the blue, *nd It is up to the disconsolate falconer to recover his erring charge as soon as he can. A SAD CASE ' . , » : - • ( • Te Destroy Gra**hopper$ The grasshopper pest appears in the wheat sections ever so often and the Kansas State Agricultural college has called to the attention of the farmers that the hoppers roost at night on weeds along the edge of the field and that one of the moat effective ways of yetting rid of them is to burn the weeds at night. The entomologlgts say that if the grasshoppers can be held down iong enough for the second leaf o f the wheat pfaaT to get under way they are not likely to do much damage. In Seif'Defenat t An eminent Vermont Judge was fond .or telling the following story: I At a session of the criminal court over which he presided n man was he- I In:: tried for stealing a sheeii: he i bed been discovered Inking the dead animal home, nnd when he was arrested there was evidence that the sheep h:,d already furnished several meals '••••' the family.

Farmer Has Advantage Over Dweller in City It Is a common complaint that the ffirm and {arm life ^re not appreci- | aled by our people. We long for more • elegant pursuits, or the ways and | f ishlons of the town. But the farmer j has the most sane and natural occu • pution and ought to find life sweeter, if less highly seasoned, than any other.

Many persons have had oae. It may happen to anyone; It may afflict any part of the body. t Several little red spots, scaly and elevated above the surface, appear on the akin. They spread from each red spot as s center, clearing up in the middle as they go, until they form a series of red rings, surrounding a patch of white skin. In from three or tour days to two weeks after their flrat appearance the patches are from half an inch to an inch in diameter. The rings may then gradually disappear or may remain stationary, turning to a yellowish brown, or they may become inflamed and very painful. These spots may be on the face, neck, hands and forearms, on the palms of the hands or the soles of the feet Ringworm of the scalp causes the hair to fall put in circular patches. Kingworm of the face is popularly called barber's Itch. Ringworm, In any degree and on any part of the body, is due to a llttie fungus growing in the superficial layers of the skin. It is highly contagious. It may be taken by personal contact or by using toilet articles or clothes of infected persons. It is particularly common In schools and institutions such as orphan asylums, day nurseries and similar institutions where children come in close contact with each other. Barber shops, beauty parlors, hair-dressing establishments, laundries and public baths may spread this troublesome disease.. It may also be carried by dogs, cats, rabbits, Lorses and cows. Ringworm is a singularly stubborn affliction, aod although it usually disappears in from several days to a few weeks, under proper treatment, It Is very apt to return, either by a new Infection or by some of the fungi being left alive In the skin. It is, of course, more stubborn and more difficult to control on the scalp and face. Here the hair or beard must be cut short or shaved in order to expose the skin. The skin should be washed clean with hot water and green soap and one of s number of germicides upplied. Painting the patches with tincture of Iodine is excellent, if one doe* not mind the temporary disfigurement. For young children the Iodine should be diluted with an equal amount of alcohol. Sulphur, salicylic or benzoic scid ointment may be used. Your doctor will tell you which one to use and how strongthe ointment should be. • FARM • POULTRY DUCKS USUALLY ARE HARDIEST OF FOWLS How the United States Bureau of Standards tests the various brake linings used In different automobiles in order that the driver may have the best possible service from his brakes.

SLEEPING SICKNESS A N D A F T E R E F F E C T S sCatarrli Jse THE newspapers report a case of "sleeping sickness" In which the victim has been "asleep" for a week or more. The popular belief is that this is a definite disease. It Is not. There is a tropical disease, common In central Africa, popularly called "sleeping sickness," but this Is entirely different from the occasional case which occurs In this country. The canes seen here are really a form of meningitis following influenza, in which the most striking symptom Is unconsciousness. This condition generally starts with a chill followed hy fever, headache and sometimes vomiting. Drowsiness soon occurs, becoming deeper and deeper. During the earlier stages the patient can be aroused, but later on the sleep becomes so profound that the patient cannot be awakened. Delirium and convulsions may occur. The unconsciousness may become deeper and the patient may die without waking, or It may gradually disappear, the patient recovering, but generally with considerable paralysis or serious mental impairment. Doctor Duncan of London has recently published a report on the results of this condition In 136. cases. Thirty-five died, sixteen recovered but could not be traced after leaving the hospital. In the remaining eighty-three seme kind of mental Ira-, palrmeut was'found in seventy-nine. This varied from defective memory to Insanity. Extreme drowsiness was frequent, while others suffered from insomnia. In some cases the disposition was entirely changed. Paralysis of some muscles or spasmodic twitching was also found in seme cases. Some patient*, were depressedand melancholy. Some form of mental derangement was found in nineteen out of twenty patients who re- Ghlldren under ten years of age showed a greater tendency to mental impahnment than older persons. If the patient lives t year after the acute attack the chances of complete recovery are good. "flleoptag stckaess" Is simply as infection ef the breia hy mfluenxa gerae.

'By E R W I N G R E E R , P r e s i d e n t Qre«r College of A u t o m o t i v e E n g i n e e r i n g , C h i c a g o ) . You who read this little column of mine think that the fellow who writes It is a pretty wise bird. But did you ever wonder why I am able to write so wisely? Well, this particular article cost me over $55 but you get it for nothing. . *- Two months ago I bought a straight eight, guaranteed to turn up nearly 100 miles an hour. After breaking it 1¾ running around 25 miles an hour for 1,000 miles—as every good motorist does—I decided to take friend wife on a trip through the country. And when we came to a long stretch of macadam 1 sampled my bus to see what speed It really could turn up. Yes, the ear was as fast as the manufacturers claimed. The motorcycle cop who arrested me proved it to the judge. The judge—an old but experienced motorist—welcomed me with bpen arms, and his udvlce run thusly : "Your first duty Is to Impress upon the public the fact that you have a new car. Always drive It as fast as It will go. This gives people the Impression you could easily win a race. When turning a corner always do it on two wheels. Everyone loves to-be thrilled. Don't push the horn button until you are in the rnMst of a crowd. It is great Sport to see people knock each other down in their haste to keep from being run over. Besides, It makes you as welcome as a mn<' dog. "If you deslr ment, try beating a train to i .^ing. or run your car into a tr^e. This will bring you newspaper .leadlines and It is quite possible that some movie company will offer you a big salary for becoming a stunt man. Always vary your antics. To keep people guessing is the spice of life. "Fifty dollars and costs! Now get out of here. If I ever catch you speeding again in this county I'll send you up for life!" And my poor wife drove poor trembling me home with remarks that would shrivel a sheet of steel. "Now I don't get that new hat 1 wanted. You an automotive expert, bah! You ought to be engineer of a peanut stand. If you ever speed again I'll tell every automobile editor in the country. and then your reputation won't be worth a wooden nickel. Hereafter, you drive to the office via the elevated." And so, reader, you see by the foregoing that even I—who you think knows all about automobiles—am only a human being after all. Did I tell that Judge my right name? I did not! I'd have been given ten- years if he knew who I was. Be satisfied to ride slowly, using ail possible forethought and consideration. Dost speed when yon come to a straight stretch. You might meet the same Judge that I did—and hear him "Fifty dollars and costs r MiMMIIMMMIIMIMlM \ Motor Car Is Fine Piece of Machinery "One trouble with the average motor car owner," says the manager of an automobile service company, "is that be falls to realize that the automobile is a piece of very tine machinery, and that It will render service In proportion to the attention it receives. It is not human, and will not cry out when abused. "When it becomes necessary, through accident, neglect, abuse, or other cause to make a^hange, one should seek the advice and services of the dealer from whom he has bought the car. This dealer has the Interest of the car at heart more than any other person In the trade. But If distance makes the dealer unavailable, It Is cheaper In the end to employ Jhe best mechanic." • » » • • • » » • « • • # ! • • • • • • » • + » » • • Cover for Radiator Is Handy in Cold Weather The' Scientific American in illustrating and descrlhlnj; n radiator cover, the invention of F. M. Cockrell and J. M. Hock well of Liberty, Mo., says : This Invention relates to a protective cover for radiators of automobiles, whereby to conserve the heat thereof in cold weather und to aid in Ducks as a rule are hardy. They do not have gapes. The weakest part of a duck is its legs. Indigestion is apt to show Itself in the young, if coarse sand is omitted in the food. It Is always best to put a handful of sand in a paii of mash food, mixing it thoroughly. This will aid digestion. The oily nature of the feathers makes the ducklings vermin proof. Exposure to hot suna is fatal. There should always be a partial shade to the runs. The market term "^reen duck" is of late Innovation. The cognomen Is applied for the reason that the bird has not yet matured. It should weigh not less than four pounds, and be not over ten weeks old—eight weeks would be better—und should never be allowed bathing water. As mi article of diet, if provided by a competent chef, the green duck resembles the famous and fast disappearing cunvashack duck. The Hunner duck is not inclined to fatten so readily as other varieties. Its name originated from the fact that this duck has a running rather than a waddling motion. In color it is a light brown or fawn shade and gray. At the joining of the bead and bill there is a narrow band of white. -The legs are orange. In carriage It Is erect, with a long, narrow body, well elevated In front, and closely feathered. The neck is long and slender, and the head rather flat. The bill Is long and broad. Duck eggs are in demand by confectioners, as they imptrrt a glaze to. their Icing, which cannot be had with hen eggs. For making plum puddings, duck eggss are more economical than those of fowls, being both larger in size and richer. In the household duck eggs are used In making all kinds of cakes, omelette, cooking generally, and they are also relished fried.

See that the tie-rod is tight, and that the steering knuckle is working properly. If anything is loose have It tightened by all means. Keep your steering mechanism well lubricated.

The production of eggs is the end of the poultry business In which the most profit can be made, so that a heavy egg producing type la best suited to ordinary farm conditions. Generally speaking, the pullet year Is the most profitable period of a hen's life. It Is advisable, therefore, either to mark the chicks when hatched, using a different mark for each year, or to band the pullets when they are put Into winter quarters, so that at culling time the age of the different birds can he seen at a glance and only those that are required for breeding purposes retained ufter the first year's production. The trup-nest Is the most reliable means to use in culling the flock, hut the ordinary fanner does not use trapnests, so that reliance must be placed on physical characteristics. The hl*h producer will he of an active disposition, early off the roost In the morning and lute to go on at night and always busy. Her head will be clear cut, face smooth and free from wrinkles, with bright, prominent eyes; skin soft, pliable and of fine texture; and a general appearance of health and vigor.

In any event special attention when the weather Is bad is the beat way to avoid the beginning of disease and disorders which may throw the entire flock out of condition for an entire season. 3 ^ ^ ^ When the tlrea wear anavenly or ao thia that th* rtroalaing ntbbar u not i enough to aboot% tfco orttsArf ahocfea 1 of travel, tiba whoa* »aarfaca art m l tikeiy to bo toekom. i tt»t ti» tmtim mM ttwr » I in HI n 111 nm in MtiiM" Poultry Notes n 111 n nj 1111 it i n m 1111 Show your best fowls at the fairs. • • • Feed the hens to force them through their molt. • • • Call all undeveloped pullets and old hona from tba flock. • • • Grain will pat on flesh and that la the Ideal that one should strive to at- • • a Have yon some chickens to sell?

The home management meeting held in the Court Mouse, Howell, Tuesday afternoon Was a decided success, in fact there has possibly never been ;. group of women gathered who represented their respective townships so well and voted unanimously to carry on the work started by County Agent Bohrnder. Mrs. Louise 11. Campbell, bead of the Home Fconomics D e p a r t m e n t oi the M. A. 0., was the speaker and surely had a message that every mother and housekeeper should have heard She explained very thoroughly the work now being carried on in twentytwo other counties, and their local memberships for the school are increasing more rapidly than has been possible in some communities to take care of. The program of Household management Inch will be their first undertaking has many interesting phases of work, and the work will be started in the townships which had representation at the meeting Tuesday. T h e other townships' representatives were detluaed for various reasons. The following is the list of township delegates present: Mrs. \V. Knapp, Geiuoi township. Stanley, Genoa township.

T h a t is a questioi for every person in the community t< 1 consider—for t h e town cannot be improved without the cooperation of every citizen. Pinckney has quite a reputation foi quiet, rural beauty, with its wide. shaded streets and prosperous, clean looking homes. B u t there are inw;it\ places that a r e a veritable "eyesore" to the public. One is the village park Wouldn't it he better to have ir mo--, ed in the summer and t h e bench replaced about upon it again f v ; n though nothing more elaborate was | accomplished:- A tourist driving thru Pinckney will first notice the apparent earlessness with which the park is kept. Opposite the d r u g store a r e the ruins of the hotel and certain buildings thnt were destroyed by fire a few yen,ft ago. T h e weeds and the large si-rn partially cover them but still they detract fmui t h e beauty of Pinckr.rv. On almost every road leading from Pinckney there a r e dump piles. Why m«t have a common place for disposal of rubbish where it could be b u r n e d ? Kvery person, especially tbe property owners, should-take an Interest in the government of Pinckney. Comi>etent officers should be chosen and everyone should help t o elect them. 4)o not complain it you did n o t vote. O U T council has already done many things which a r e improvements t o Pinckney. Another improvement would be tl»e paving of Main Street and the grav <\- ing of the side streets. IQ the summer when M49 is covered with antos from morning till night the dust is unbearable. The minor streets often become the two weary girls were helped to so mnddy that it is impossible to drive thedreasbag reoms Bit theyv heJon them. made the greatest fight staee «C**- It would be a benefit to Pinckney tion witli tiie larger towns und the cities. If t h e b u s service from Howell to J a c k s o n is discontinued Pinckney will ha*e b u t t w o trains. O u r mail service will be very uncertain. Pinckney should have a place for entertainment a n d recreation. Of course, there is t h e o p e r a house but colds a r e often pnevulent after an e n t e r t a i n m e n t In that edifice and in addition the scenery is sadly in need of repuir. Community p r o g r a m s that everyone could take p a r t in a n d enjoy should be given. Community sings and educational p r o g r a m s would be beneficial in lifting t h e moral tone of Pinckney. A publie library and reading room, containing books und magazines of a good quality would serve also in this manner. There being no gymnasium in our chool, no sports except football and baseball can be enjoyed. T h r u sports the qualities of character a r e developed— self-control, courage, endurance and loyalty. O u r schawl buiming is already overcrowded. If fire should break out, as I t might easily do in such an old building, the result would probably be disastrous. So f a r the sake of the children, tire drill should be instituted. Although possibly many other things might be done, if these were accomplished, I am sure Pinckney would b e a much more desirable place to live in. . o- -——-—- Several persons have been victimized in this city by a person representing several members of the Michigan foot ball squad a n d his scheme has been to solicit funds from different ones stating that he is t r y i n g to get through college and not having enough money t o finish is financially embarrassed, and in this way he obtained loans.

He looks the purl. He Is also supposed to be particularly glad that be Is ullve In 1025, for the reason that history Is In the miikin« these days and the new year la likely to see considerable that Is new. And of course, this good American likes to se*> new things. That's human nature. "There Is nothing new under the sun." according to the old saw. Bui the saying Is very old and the man who suld It lived a lonj; while ngn Doubtless he was a smart man—so smart that If he were reincarnated he'd hunt up an alibi the very first thlnn- For nowadays the day Is pretty much wasted that does not produce some thing new. And. as fust as the new things boh up, the newspapers prim it on the first p*P* «nd *'e al1 know about It almost before It happens. Let a German alchemist nt 10 p. m. discover a way to make gold and the man In San Francisco rends the headlines the next morning—and skips the text because he beard all about It the night before on the radio. ONR new thing that we are sure to have Is a new President. He's the same Calvin Coolldge, to be sure. who's been occupying the White Rouse, but now he Is going to be Pres Ident in his own right. He say's he's not going to rock the boat because of that—which Is a pretty good joke In its own dry way—but there's likely to be a difference. Just the same. Tt wouldn't surprise everybody If 1025 saw something new In politics. And of course there will be millions npon millions of new "good resoluttons**— every American worth his salt makes them. Incidentally, the good American who Is looking shout for one worth while can do much worse than turn back to President Coolldge's Thanksgiving proclamation, ne mpnttoaed some of the many, many ren sons why Americans should be thankful- and concluded with this auggestfee— quite ss timely at New Tear's: 1ft afcaJl da well to accept all th«a* faVOtS 6*4 feOWUies with a becoming fcVsrttlTT a*4 aedlcaU them to the •gretae of the rUrhteon* cause of the efvse ef «11 good sad perfect gifts.

VARIL'M et mutablle semper fem- Ina—"Woman is a variable aud changeable thing always—" wrote a fumous Roman author many centuries ago. Wrote Shakespeare: "Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale her Infinite variety." if they could return to earth would they claim to be prophets foretelling women as governors of two Sovereign Stutes of the l.'nlted States of America in the yeur lirjf. A. I).? Anyway, that's what the New Year will set5—Her Excellency, Mrs. Nellie Tayloe Ross, governor of Wyoming and Her Kxcellency, Mrs Miriam Amanda Ferguson (Mrs. James K. Ferguson), governor cf Texas. And this something plumb new in our history. While the results were the same In both states, the circumstances of nom ination and election were interestingly different. Mrs. Ross is tlie widow of the late Gov, William B. Ross who died In October. She was not a candidate, was nominated by the Democratic state convention and was elected easily in a state normally Republican. Mrs. Ferguson Is the wife of former Governor Ferguson, who was im peached and resigned from the governorship. She made the race to vindicate her husband and had to win two primary elections of the Democratic party as well as the election Itself. Philosophers will doubtless say that these two elections are old stuff instead of new. The Wyoming voters provided for a widow who had lost her husband In the service of the state. The Texas voters elected a loyal wife who was fighting for the good name of her husband and the father of her children. Take your choice! N1 £«*• .v.v- 1NETEEN TWENTY-FIVE will see one new thing which the "showme" fellows will have hard work In proving old stuff. That's a national outdoor recreation policy, with the executive branch of the federal govern ment, the "National Park Army" of r>.000,000 members of 128 affiliated organizations and the American people working in harmony and co-operation. The government Is represented by the President's committee, which consists of the secretaries of Interior, agricul ture, war, commerce and labor and Theodore Roosevelt. The "Army" and the people are represented by a general council of 100. whkt in tnrn Is represented between meetings hy an executive council of 11. The President's committee will formulate an administration policy concerning the recreational and conservatlonal use of the public lands, harmonise the-differences of the several executive depart meats and assure federal co-operation I deavor In the development of self. slon of the 20 units of the national park system and for the maintenance of the standard In parks to be created. Its general declaration of this policy Is this: Resolved, That outdoor recreation furnishes opportunity to gain abounding" health, strength, wholesome enjoyment, understanding and love of nature, good fellowship and keen sportsmanship aril, above all, has a direct beneficial influence on the formation of sturdy character by developing tho&e qualities of self-control, endurance under hardship, reliance on self and co-operation with others In team work which are ao necessary to good citizenship. ARE you making haste to get rid at any old price of the stocks and bonds and miscellaneous securities in your strong box? No? Well, lots of people are saying* that Dr. Adolf Mletfie of Berlin will get you If don't watch out. Anyway, the German scientist is proclaiming from the housetops that he has found out how to change quicksilver Into gold. And It's just as easy as falling off a log. You see, the only difference between an atom of mercury and nn atom of gold is that the former has 80 electrons and the latter 70. So he Just turns on an electric current, "cracks" the mercury atom and knocks off that superfluous electron. Result: an atom of pure gold! Gold Is money and the basis of credits because of its scarcity. If you und 1 can buy mercury, hitch on to an electric current and make us a stack of double eagles—why, gold is worth Just exactly what It Is worth as a metal In the Industries und the arts. And the world will have to go back to beaver skins or woodpeckers' sculps or something of the kind for a medium of exchange. However, there's one thing about tills modern alchemy that still stands between us and the poorhouse. Doctor Miethe estimates that it will cost more than $'2.(XXX000 to make a pound of gold by disintegrating quicksilver. And a pound of gold—a whole pound of 16 ounces—Is worth for money purposes almost exactly $330.40. THERE'S an old saw that says, "The only way to judge tbe future is by the past." Experience has shown that this Is about as good a way as any, even If not the only way. The immediate past has certainly made history rapidly. So 102,1¾ Is quite likely to do Its share. Will alt the new things be unmixed blessings? They will not There's the psychologist, for example, who will be busy In 1925 preaching that man Is nothing more than a composite of instincts and emotions and his actions the purely mechanistic result of muscular and nervous reactions. This doctrine throws oat all ethical conceptions of life, abolishes moral responsibility and blocks self-development. It therefore endangers man as an individual and society as a collection of individuals. So this doctrine of the psychologist is plainly no -doctrine for the good American.

It was this fort which Sir Francis Drake, the famous British navigator, eaptured without resistance during a flying raid on the "Spanish Main" In that year. A little later a more pretentious structure of stone was begun and it was named Fort St. Mark. In 1638 the Spaniards were at war with the Apalachian Indians* who lived near the Suwanee river, and, having defeated them, forced their captives to work on the fortifications for more than 60 years. When Gen. James Oglethorpe, the founder of Georgia, laid siege to St. Augustine in 1740, Monteano, the Spanish commandant, had a large force of convicts from Mexico at work on the fort and by this time It was*o strong that Oglethorpe gave up the attempt t£ capture the town. At the close of the French and Indian war Spain, France's ally, was forced to cede Florida to the British. In 1748 It was given back to Spain, who held it until 1819, when the United States purchased It for $5,000,000. On July 10, 1821, the Spanish flag, which had floated over St. Augustine for more than two centuries and s half, was lowered and the Stars and Stripes went up over Fort St. Mark. Some time later it was renamed Fort Marion In honor of Frnncis Marlon, the famous "Swamp Fox" of the Rerolutlon, and as Fort Marlon the ancient fortress remains to this day. *.:£- * i - j compelled to pay taxes in both towns nurse. «tr >A*.Y ; •?•?/}. **. -S* * • • * » • • Taosokt Calf Would Do * tewa #rt Irweaed emrried s weHJj LsealijsMi irsT asked by ear If glfet *ewi# Use to »**• • JMMMsw 4*Mp>.ts»». * • •*«•*•£ ^ ^ ^ • * ^ S S M ^ w SHSssSsHk sny oilier cow that had ever lived.

When the Creek Indtnns joined the cause of the British the settlers gathered at this fort and In July, ISIS, General Claiborne sent a force's? 118' soldiers, under Mnj, Daniel Beasley, to hold the fort. At first Beasley energetically obeyed Claiborne's orders to strengthen the fort, then allowed the work to slacken when the Creeks failed to make any hostile move. He even became so negligent ss to tall to post guards, except at night and. one day when two slaves brought news of having, seen signs of a large body of Indians, Beasley ordered them flogged for spreading a false alarm.

Fancy baa had full away In many of the lovely things from the best-known ateliers. Gowns of the finest, softest fabrics, deep piled woolens and velvets of lux urioos silky feeling, all are heli>ed to the additional suggestion of warmth with fur—fur about the neck, fur bordering the bottom of skirts, fur cuffs in which hands are sheltered, and fur in bands that add lines of grace from throat to hem. The evidence of fur on gowns, wraps and millinery is almost universal. Almost no coat, evening wrap, street or sports suit Is seen without some fur, and those garments in which It Is omitted seem to lacs> interest and modlshness. The makers.' of bonnets, of occasional garments and of accessories have followed the lead of the j costume designers, and so there Is fur | on almost everything that Is offered for women's wear.

E SHALL have go farther & cm::-'-*. to back than the Christian era to find the source of Christmas celebration, for we borrowed It from the nations existing long before 4fbe coming of the Christ Child. Christmas came from early Egyptian Crfillwtion, from the Teutonic barbarianSV or the pagan Greek and Roman nation*—-or perhaps from all of them. Botrin the days of the early Chrtsttana Christmas ceased to be observed merely a s a day of merrymaking and feasting. They celebrated It a s a day of gQjOd will and kindliness, the bestowing of gifts, and a time of peace, but they considered it a holy festival and too filled with solemnity and sacred joy to be made a time of hilarity and boisterous jollity. That the very date Is uncertain m a k e * little real difference. In those the sun was supposed to begin to recede from the equator. They celebrated the 21st of December by all manner of licentious revels and heathen debauchery, and even after the coming of Christianity It was centuries before these pagan customs and practices were eliminated. And It was not until after the Middle ages that the meaning and the significance of the season began to dawn upon the minds and hearts of men. In old England Christmas became a time of feasting, drinking and hilarious merrymaking—not a very advanced conception, but a step beyond the pagan Jdea. Later the spirit of Puritanism began to Influence English customs and public zeal ran so high that all goyety nnd all festivity came to be considered sinful. All observances of special days were declared designed by the "devllle," mtf 'J^T * SSSS, * ' $*1>::^5*^'.^V *2e if &S»>*^ early days of the Christians they thought It following the h e a t h e n i s h ettatoins to observe birthdays.

For twelve years no special days were observed In England, and when they were once more taken back Into favor the result was what might have been expected, for the Christ urns season became a time of feasting, drinking, dancing and wild revel, lasting for twelve days and nights. The lord of misrule came into existence—this was the chosen master of festivities. Into whose hands the keys of the house were given and whose word was law while the revel lasted. The days and nights were full of "all manner of hilarity, and a most wild and merrie time was had," we are told. At first -«nly the royal households had these lords of misrule, but the custom spread nntil almost every housebold had Its ruler of the season's revels.

The Song of Christmas By £ JAMES WHITCOm RILEJ CHANT me a rhyme of Christmas— And though it la filled with laughter, let it be pure and strong. Sing- of the hearts brimmed over with the story of the day— Of the echo of childish voices that wllJ not die away. Of the blare of the tasseled bugle, and of the timeless clatter and beat Of the drum that throbs to mustei squadrons of scampering feet But. O, let your voice fall fainter, till blent with a minor tone. You temper your song with the be&utj of the pity Christ has shown. And sing one verse for the volcelesi, and yet ere the song be done, A verse for the ears that hear not, and a verse for the sightless one. For though It be time for singing • merry Christmas glee, Let a low, sweet voice of pathos run through the melody. The afternoon tea, whether It la a real function or Just a pleasant gettingtogether of three or four, is not complete unless the sandwich plate is well tilled. Butter should be c r e a m e d a n d spread very evenly making a thin coating over the entire slice, which 1« cut very thin, and then may be cut into various shapes as one's taste dictates. The crusts which are trimmed from the bread in making sandwiches may be tossed into a little melted butter and served with the soup for dinner or luncheon. If not served as croutons, roll and use as crumbs for a thousand dishes. Tuna Sandwiches.—Mince fine onehatf cupful of tuna# fish, add one-half I teaspoonful of Worcestershire sauce j two tablespoonfuis of tomato catchup and enough mayonnaise to moisten j about two tablespoonfuls. Mix to s paste and spread on thin buttered whole wheat bread. Cover, press and cut into triangles or strips.

Lelong, for example, cuts fur with the abandon with which one might put the shears into flannel ; he cuts it into a circular flounce to form the bottom, 18 inches deep, of the silk cout in an afternoon costume.

Worth likns to trim ninny tilings with fur, and most often uses it iu straight lines—us often on silk or sutln as on the heavier materials.

Lanvin uses the pony skin and other flat furs. I'atou'has a tlair for frocks and coats of soft velvets, tin.) prefers for their triming the superlatively fine furs, especially the foxes in blues and grays. Paul Caret is content to add large bands or squares of fur on a wrap fashioned of handsome wool or silk, and Doetilllet. whose newest models are severely straight in line, cuts liis fur in hands which outline a coat all about the edge and at the wrists. Cheruit, loving the sweep of soft material and the introduction of <i scarf, when it is possible, ornaments a gown and coat of full sweeping width with blue fox placed several Inches above the hern, and carried In clinging softness around the neck, down the front and .all about the bottom. Premet's newest nnd best things show belllshment and comfort for women in the world of fashion.

Fox, skunk, kolinsky, seal, mink, sable and ermine and many skill* fully dyed imitations of these with catchy names are Introducvd In eroniny gowns and wraps. Some of the designers are making the fur trimming of a costume its most conspicuous feature and are using it with extravagance. Worth, for example, doea something striking, almost freakish.

(Jowns of soft satin or crepe, wraps of metal hrocades, velvet or heavy silk are made sumptuous by the addition of fur. Black satin trimmed with ermine is thought to bo exceedingly smart, and ermine tails and skins are lavishly used on evening gowns and wraps. The amount of ermine and of sable seen on some of the handsomer velvet wraps represents fortunes spent In the new styles. Such garments have a rcgnl appearance.

Mystery of Sound Board The sound board of a piano, although it is actually u thin sheet of iir wood, is a wonder not fully understood in Its effects. Most people know that every note has a complete and very elaborate set of vibrations which give it its pitch and character, and all the^e separate sets are reproduced in the sound board quite Independently. Evm in comparatively simple music there are frequently thousands of vibrations ffoing on In that piece of thin brittle wood, which we can hear but cannot s e e ; and with all the crossing and recrossing of the vibration lines which must take place there is never any confusion, and it is possible to select any group of vibrations :is the one to which we can pay the most attention. Perhaps even Ptlil more wonderful is the fact that the piano maker can m;tke the board susceptible to different kinds of vihration without knowing how he does it. ; * \ i Our Entire Men's A £* o> Friend—What do sci.

CLARK Dean o/ M*n, Unw*r«ify o) llhnoti (©. 1914, Weatern Newtpapar Union.) OFj^LL the illusions of childhood, I gave up with most reluctance those that clustered around Christmas. The old saint who climbed down the chimney into the fireplace In our sitting room and filled our stockings on Christmas Eve was as real to me as Moses or George Washington or my grandfather or any other person of whom I had heard but whom I had never personally met. He Is to rr.e real today when I am In reminiscent moods, perhaps because I have always wanted him to be renl. Long aftor I recognized all the subterfuges which were being practiced on me as a child at Christmas time, I never admitted them even to myself, for I wns quite willing to submit to the deceptions; I was made happy by all the ceremonies and surprises. I have never In all my life been away from home at Christmas time; I hope I never shall be. Christmas joys are for me the most delightful; Christmas memories, the most precious. Everything about our holiday preparations at home was of the simplest mas," a friend said to me a few days ago. "I don't believe It is ever going to be for any one again Just as If used to be.'1 I suppose not; though there are some events connected with the celebration of Christmas, there Is the real Christmas which I am sure I shall never outgrow. If I should hang up my stocking by the fireplace now, I feel just as sure as I ever did that old Saint Nick would get in some way before mornlng and fill It as he used to do when I was a child. My faith In Christmas has never waned, and my need for It. I practice economy badly at any time, but with the greatest difficulty at Christmas time, and especially since the prices of my own particular varieties of frankincense and myrrh have been so affected by the economic conditions. It Is what Is In our hearts that makes Christmas real. The song of character, but the season was full of possibilities and surprises. The dinner larked the conventional roast turkey. Instead there was a roast goose or a huge joint of roast beef (following the English custom with which my mother was familiar) with suet dumplings and gravy. There was always, too, a loaf of spiced bread and plum pudding with a delightful sauce of drawn butter, and there was mince pie followed with nuts and raisins and other goodies. Just as "home" always suggests to me sugar cookies, hot from the oven, with mother warning me not to eat so many as to make myself sick, so Christmas Invariably brings to my mind the thought of raisins. They were In the spiced bread which mother made, the plum pudding was congested with them, I found them always on Christmas morning in my stocking with other good things to eat, and there was regularly on Christmas day e dish of them on the table to be eaten after dinner. It was not altogether what we had to eat that gave Christmas such a high place tn my regard, though that helped materially, no doubt. It was the mystery, the anticipation, the preparation and the surprise of It all; the gathering together of all the family, the games, the roaring fire In the fireplace, tad the general hilarity and good will prevailing that made Christmas for me the beat loved of all the holidays «f the entire year. "We are father outgrowing CM** ; # the angels is In the air if the Christmas spirit is in our hearts, Christmas is as great a reality as it ever was, if we will make It BO, and for us all the nngels are again proclaiming as they did that night In Palestine, centuries ago, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.** I shall hang up my stocking at Christmas Eve, there will be raisins In It in the morning. I have faith that the old Christmas joys will be mine once more. anfajs il.SoocJell Mai" &•&&&&£}' Bo Frank Herbert Smeet <©, IfU. We«Urn N«wip«per Union.) OLCOMB did things in a peculiar way —a peculiarly nice way, though. It affected his Christmas gifts, his busin e s s , e v e n h i s friendships. But then he was a bachelor of fifty. Then, too, everybody loved him, which Is a very peculiar thing about a successful business man with competition, you'll admit. This year Holcomb was very busy, and his Christmas gifts—general gifts, you know—hadn't even occurred to him until two days before the day. He was passing through a new street between a restaurant and his office, when he saw a small shop with windows crammed with toys—nothing but toys. At this season, nearly the middle of the afternoon, a toy shop ought to be crowded with customers. This shop was closed. On the steps stood a small, anxious looking man, and a big one dangling a large key. It looked like a store key. Seemed peculiar. So Holcomb went to the steps. "Like to look at the toys," he began. "Can't now," boomed the big man, "This chap can't pay a bill, so I've taken It. Auction day after tomorrow. Tm sheriff." "Meaning," said Holcomb, "that if the bill Is paid, the store belongs to this man again? How much?" "Of course—and $200." "What's It all worth?" to the little man. "About $50 If sold at auction," dejectedly. "I picked a bum street No business." "What did you pay or agree to pay?" "$500." "What will you sell for?" "Can't sell until—" nodding toward the sheriff. Holcomb counted out $200, and passed it to the sheriff. "Good-by," he said. "Now what do you ask?" to the small man. *Td rather like $300, but will be glad to accept half that." Holcomb counted out the $300. "Give me the key," to the sheriff. "Thank you. Now where can I find two men to move the toys?" *T11 be one," beamed the man out of business. "I know about toys. And I can get another man from the next building." "Do so, and Til bring round my car from the next corner." Inside of an hour the shop was emptied and the limousine filled. Then Holcomb took the moat country of all the country roads, stopping at every house that showed signs of children. "Hello-o," he would call to any small boy or girl he happened to tee; "got some stuff for yoer house. Please take it hi for me. I'm in a hurry. Give yon a Quarter." Be had provided a pocket heavy with loeee quarters. There were about three hours of daylight When the daylight was gone the car was empty.

Waatern Newspaper Untoo.) World's Greatest Civil War Began Here On the morning of April 12, 1861,. Edmund Ruffin, an aged Virginian, pulled the lanyard of a cannon and* made history. For the shot which went screaming across the water of Charleston harbor and struck the- - walls of Fort Sumter set 2,000,000 armed Americans at each other'sthroats in the greatest civil war l a history. Fort Sumter, named for Gen. Thomas Sumter, the famous partisan leader of the Revolution, was built in 182£ and was a casemated brickwork of live faces, mounting two tiers of guns* It wus situated on a little Island between Morris and Sullivan islands ini the mouth of the harbor of Charleston, S. C. At the opening of the Civil ^ war it was commanded by Maj. Robert . > Anderson, who had evacuated Fort Moultrie in December. 1860, and occupied Fort Sumter when he saw that South Carolina was preparing to seize the forts in the harbor. In January, 1861, the steamer Star of the West had been fired upon when It tried to> bring supplies to Anderson, but nofurther hostile move against the fort was made until April 11 when Gen. P. T. Beauregard, the Confederatecommander, demanded that Andersoa surrender. When Anderson refused, Beauregard the next day ordered his batteries toopen fire on Sumter. After threehours Anderson returned the fire and for the next 34 hours 19 batteries? rained shot and shell Against the fort^ Three times the fortification was set on fire but the brave defenders kept up the fight until their ammunition^ was almost exhausted. Then Anderson sorrowfully lowered the Stars and* Stripes and on April 14, after he h a * evacuated the fort, the Stars and Bar* of the Confederacy were hoisted itt their place. Twice (luring the war the Unloa forces tried to recapture Fort Sumter.. On April 7, 1803, Admiral Dupont tried to reduce It with a naval bombardment but failed. That summer Admiral Dahlgren reduced the fort to> an earthwork, but could not take lt- So the men in gray held this fort until February 17, 1865, when they were forced to evacuate Charleston? and the next day the Union flag was« raised over It by Major General Hennessey. The last chapter in the stirring history of this fort was wrltter* on April 14, 1865. On that day Robert Anderson, now a general, led a force of boys In blue Into Fort Sumter and over its ruined walls he hoisted the same shot-torn flag which hehad been forced to lower from the* fort's flagstaff four years before. "Hold the Fort for We Are* Coming!" It was only a small fortlflcatioft built high up In Allatoona Pass In themountalns of northern Georgia and history does not even dignify It witha name of Its own. But It once w a s a post of the greatest strategic value- In an Important Civil war campaign and it also furnished the Inspiration for a famous hymn, "Hold the F o r t for We Are Coming!" Late in 1864, just before General Sherman began his famous march to* the sea, Confederate General Hood slipped around his right flank and began capturing the small garrisons, which Sherman had left along the* tine of his march. One of the most Important of these posts was located In Allatoona pass where a million and a half rations were stored, a rich* prize If Hood should capture It. This post, surrounded by earthwork* hastily thrown up, was<~ commanded/ by Gen. J. S. Corse of Illinois with a \ force of about 1,500 Minnesota and Illinois troops. Hood detailed General French with 6,000 men to drive- Corse out of the pass. It was soon surrounded and a demand for Its surrender made. Corse refused and la » little while a hot battle,was in progress. Although many of ni« men werekilled, Corse still held out and retired to the little fort at the top, which he prepared to defend to the last In the meantime Sherman had started north from Atlanta In hot haste to> save the pass from being captured. Just as Corse was beginning to» despair of holding out against the attack of the grayjackets, an officer called his attention to a white flagthat was being frantically waved from the summit of Kenesaw mountain, 15- miles away. This signal was answered and then the heartening message waa waved from mountain to mountain r "Hold the fort: I am coming, W. T. Sherman.'* A wild cheer went up from the beleaguered men and with renewed courage they kept op the fight . B y this time more than half of the me* In the little fort were either kflled or wounded.

Statistics show that Urge part of the autobiles, pianos, radio sets, furniture and a hundred other things are bought on a monthly payment basis. We have no objection, nor have we any criticism for such a way of purchasing, but we often think that if a man would pay himself what he owes himself, as regularly as he pays his installment bills, he would soon be in a position to buy for cash, if he liked, and save a ccnaidermble amount of money. YOUR SAVINGS ACCOUNT deserves attention— regular attention—and if you will deposit in it every month the amount which, in all justice you owe yourself, its size will soon be a source of both pride and pleasure. •• • 9 V 8 / ' V PINCKNEY STATE BANK ..Officers..

"We a r e glad t o have Important Information of a technical and scientific nature," Admiral Eberle said. "These tests began on a Thursday. On Thursday and Friday charges representing bombs and torpedoes were exploded around the hull. "Some of the c h a r g e s exploded were in the shape of 2,(.)00 pound airplane bombs. They w e r e not dropped from phines, but were placed in the water around the Washington. ''Other charges representing the latest types of modern torpedoes, exploded In simulation of a torpedo attack.

ZR-3, Renamed, Is Now a Good American AM E R I C A N I Z A T I O N of t h e giant dirigible ZR-3—the last of the historic line of German dirigible zeppellns—has been completed In a setting symbolical of the peaceful w a y s s h e Is to follow. T h e glistening flyer w a s taken to Washington from Lakehurst. S h e arrived over the city at 12:50 p. m. and before descending for the christening circled gracefully above the White House, the capftol and the towering Washington monument. All the high officials of the government nnd many e n v o y s from o'her lands gathered tit Rolling field fur the ceremony. Navy officers watched her performance with the greater interest because it w a s her first trial on this side of the Atlantic, her first venture in the hands of American naval men and the first time she had taken the air using helium instead of hydrogen lti her inflation tanks, thus doing away with risk of explosion. Escorted by the President, Mrs, Cool- Idge mounted t h e steps to the platform, where she stood amid masses of flowers that nimble sailors had alrendy lifted into position. Relow Iter stood 800 other sailors clinging fast to the tugging mooring ropes of the airship. In her ringing contralto voice c a m e then t h e words— "I christen thee Log Angeles." As i f i n answer to t h e Spanish words m e a n i n g "the a n g e l s " there w a s a fluttering of wings and clouds of carrier pigeons, released by the cords Mrs. Coolidge had pulled when s h e spoke, s w u n g a w a y from t h e t r e m e n d o u s craft which had been brought down to her as the ZR-M and now w a s to go back t o the skies a s t h e L o s Angeles. To t h e skies and to mankind the pigeons carried a m e s a g e written on tiny bits of tissue attached to their legs. St. Luke wrote It 19 centuries ago, nnd it makes t h e thirteenth and fourteenth verses of the second chapter of his gospel, T h u s It r e a d s : "And suddenly there w a s with t h e ange) a multitude of the heavenly host prnsing God and snying, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men," Then the navy band, which w a s down on t h e autumnal brown carpet, s w u n g Into "The Star Spangled Banner" and President nnd cnbinet officers and admirals and diplomats stood at rigid attention w h i l e evening closed In. T h e music died a w a y and from distant batteries came t h e thud of the national salute. The Capital Much Worried Over Rents WA S H I N G T O N h a s been experimenting for five years to see whether or not the law of supply and demand shall be the sole control In determining rents. A commission, created by congress and endowed with uncommon powers, h a s endeavored to have a s a y In the question of what the people of the crowded nnd busy capital shall be asked to pay for shelter. Out of the commission's activities has come t h e question, of Interest to the whole country, whether housing Is not a public necessity, to be regulated a s railroad rates and the price of g a s are regulated. T h e District Court of Appeals has held that the wartime emergency exists no longer and that, consequently, t h e rents fixed by the commission need no longer prevail. If this decision stands all rent control is removed in Washington, and the landlord m a y hereafter be restrained only by his conscience or t h e pocketbook limitations of available tenants. An appeal from the decision will b e made to t h e United S t a t e s Supreme court. Tenants, particularly those in modest quarters, t h e scarcest sort of dwelling In Washington, are facing evictions. They have a s k e d permission of the President to pitch tents In public parks, and this permission h a s been denied. One mother h a s threatened, if s h e is evicted In defiance of the rent commission's ruling, to take her babies and sit on t h e White H o u s e steps until t h e Chief E x e c u t i v e finds her a place to live. Ever since the early d a y s of t h e war the demand for quarters in Washington h a s been much greater than t h e supply. Real e s t a t e h a s skyrocketed, and building h a s been frantically active. Washington h a s been Uke a boom town in bonanza d a y s of t h e W e s t to the real e s t a t e operator. T h e Walllngfords descended upon Washington. -There were even buildings mortgaged for t w i c e or three times their cost to build. Those houses that the commission has held down to $ 4 0 or $50 a month have takers standing In line waiting for them at twice as much rent. T h e s e are t h e people w h o are facing t h e winter with n o w h e r e to go. Under t h e circumstances the District Is asking itself If the law of supply and demand shall he allowed to o p e r a t e unrestrained. U. S.

Dangerous Indifference to carbon monoxide poisoning In private garages still exists, according to the American Chemical society, which makes public the findings of an investigation conducted by W. P. Yant, W. A. Jacobs and L. B. Berger of the United States bureau of mines. "In summing up the dangers arising from running an automobile in a closed private garage it can be said," according to the society's statement, "that there seems to be no limit of time during which the engine may be run in a closed private garage with safety to an occupant thereof. Open Doors Previously. "The doors should be opened previous to starting the engine, even if it is only intended to take the car out, because, no matter how careful people may be, a few unheeded minutes taken to look at the tires or measure the gasoline tank may prove disastrous. "If it is necessary to run the engine for any lengthy period, as In making repairs or adjustments, the car should by all means be run Into the open; and even then the direct exhaust should be avoided in order to decrease the possibility of headache and discomfort." In spite of the recent extensive Investigations on the danger of poisoning by carbon monoxide by Inhaling the exhaust gas of automobiles, much Indifference or Ignorance still exists concerning the magnitude of the hazard in running engines In small private garages, the statement says, continuing: People Become Indifferent. "The public has become so accustomed to seeing men working about engines which are running, and to breathing exhaust gas in low concentrations, that they have become more or less indifferent to its dangers. "Few people have regarded or thought that the atmosphere they are breathing Is not exhaust gas In a strict sense, but an exceedingly dilute mixture of exhaust gas In air made comparatively safe through natural or artificial ventilation. Exhaust from each engine that may he running in these places Is many times greater than that in a private garage at home." Tests show that the carbon monoxide liberated per bour by five and seven-passenger cars and light trucks Is practically the same, especially when Idling. The cubic feet of carbon monoxide liberated per hour by these three classes of automobiles when idling are, respectively, 3o, 33 and 31. Racing, the totals are 65, lOfi and 68. Evidence was revealed of disastrous results should the engine be started and left in operation while the driver went elsewhere.

Washing the running board, wheels and under side of the fenders of an uutomobile is usually a tedious and laborious task, as the use of a hose alone Is not sufficient to remove the caked mud quickly and thoroughly. The work Is greatly facilitated by means of a special washing brush of the kind shown in the drawing. This fixture Is attached directly to the water hose and causes a constant stream of water to flow on the surface where the brush Is being used. The brush used for this purpose is an ordinary calcimine or whitewash HOSE AND A Combination Brush and Water Nozzle for Washing the Under Side of Auto Fenders and Running Boards. brush, about six inches wide, and having fairly stiff bristles. It is drilled through the wooden part as indicated to fit tightly on the threaded end of a three-foot length of three-quarter-inch pipe. A small slot is cut In the pipe at an angle, so that the water will be directed against the bristles. A cap, of course, is fitted on the end of the pipe, and the water hose Is connected to the other end. If the brush tends to work loose on the pipe the pipe can be threaded further and provided with a locknut and tapered washer on each side of the brush,—Popular Mechanics Magazine. B e a t o f T w o M o t o r s Ever notice that when you pass another car on a hill, particularly if It has more or fewer cylinders than yours, your own car seems to make a most peculiar beating noise? This is simply the difference in the speed, firing and vibration of the t w o engines, and is no reflection upon the perfection of your own. Just a case of two motors that beat as two. Good Plan for Mounting a Straight Side Tire Many owners find it difficult properly to mount straight side tires. The correct method Is to lay the rim on the floor and Insert the valve stem of the tire in its proper location. Next force the bead for ten Inches on each side of the valve stem into place. With the tire started in this way, the operator should force it into place by stamping upon it with his feet, first on one side of the valve stem and then on the other. If the feet prove not sufficiently powerful to force the casing into place, a tire tool must be utilized, the ends of the rim being pried Into place with a screw driver. The new owner frequently gets the tire In place only to find that he has gotten the ends of the rim overlapping In the wrong way. A rim contracting and expanding tool Is a great help In this connection, but sometimes this useful device Is not at hand, when the above method may be used.

OREEN Editor of " H E A L T H " •wmiiiiiMwwiiiKiimtui FIGHTING DISEASE IN THE DARK •pOOT-AND-MOUTH disease has ap- •J* peured among the "Brubniun" cuttle of Texas. This is a strange instance of Jumping out of the fryiug pan into the tire, as far as the l e x a s cut tie men are concerned. Many years ago, when Texas stockmen were suffering great losses through their cattle dying of Texas fever, It was proposed to import from India the zebu or humped oxen of thut country, which, for some reason, are immune to the fever which prevarled in Texas. Many of ttiese strange cattle were brought in, and in some ways the experiment has been a success, although newer and better methods for the control of Texus fever by destroying the tick which carries it have reduced tbe disease in domestic cattle to a comparatively small problem. But the Brahman cattle, while immune to the tick fever, are apparently very susceptible to a much more dangerous disease, the so-called foot-andmouth disease. This disease, also called aphthous fever or aphthous epizootic, most commonly afflicts cows, but may attack horses, dogs, cats and fowls. Unfortunately, human beings are also susceptible. Numerous epidemics among cows have occurred In this country since 1870, when it was first Imported from England. Handling diseased cows or drinking milk from an Infected cow will cause the disease ir man. On the second day after the exposure fever, headache and itching occur, Five days Inter blisters form on the hands, the tongue, lips and cheeks. These blisters may later form ulcers. As a rule the disease is a mild one in man, but In children, in severe or neglected cases, the ulcers may becoin large and painful sores. While there is no question that this disease Is caused by some germ, the exact cause is not known. Strange to suy, the United States Department of Agriculture will not even allow its scientific men in the bureau of animal industry to attempt to find the cause. It seems that In Europe some experiments were marie, with the result that the infection In some way escaped and started a new epidemic. Yet no intelligent steps can be taken to prevent or cure this disease, either In animals or men, until the exact cause is known. Surely there should be some spot In thlB great country so remote that studies could be safely carried on, and the cause of this disease, dangerous to both man and best, discovered and a method of prevention devised.

I I THE principal cause of deafness Is Infection of the middle ear. This small space back of the ear drum Is usually Infected by germs passing up the little tube from the back of the throat. This tiny passage called the Eustachian tube, after Eustachlus, the old Italian anatomist who first described it, allows the air to pass from the throat up behind the ear drum so as to equalize the air pressure on both sides of the drum. When this tube is stopped up, the unequal pressure makes the ear drum bulge, and this prevents it from vibrating. That's why when we have a bad cold our ears feel "stopped up." That's also the reason why we blow our nose or swallow when otfr ears feel stopped up, because these arts force the air up Into the middle <ear and so relieve the pressure. Unfortunately, when the air :s forced up Into the middle ear, mucus from the throat goes with It, and If there are any germs in the throat they are also carried up into the little I cavity, where they grow, form pus, J anfl if not properly treated may cause ; the ear drum to break by too strong | pressure from within. Breaking the ear drum seriously affects hearing • and long-continued Infection of the middle ear may entirely destroy I t Infection of the middle ear seldom occurs alone. It is generally one of the results or complications of some other disease. What are the diseases which are mogt likely to cause middle-ear infection? Dr. David T. Smith of Baltimore recently examined every child admitted to the parriet Lane Children's hospital In that city and found that out of 613 children admitted 205, or S3 per cent, had some form of ear infection. Race and sex had no relation to this disease, but It was twice as frequent In the winter as In the ssummer. It most frequently occurred after pneumonia, dysentery, diphtheria and whooping cough. As loss of hearing i s a serious handicap both to the child's education and t o its future, children's ears should be carefully watched, especially following any of the diseases mentioned and any pain or discharge from the ears should be given immediate attention. * What Grandpa Thought Jack—Grandpa, we've bees arguing whether the clock stands or sits oa the mantel.

There is not a state, not a county, not a community, that isn't paying a heavy price for having too few permanent roads. There are still many sections oi the country —even whole states—that are trying to operate twentieth century traffic over nineteenth century roads. This ia costing millions oi dollars every year, and will keep on costing millions until we have well developed permanent high* way systems everywhere.

Speaking of the Immediate future, Mr. Coolidge warned that more attention must be given by fanners to the marketing problem so that the "abnormal and war-stimulated surpluses" may be disposed of. He then pointed to a period he said was "fast approaching" when this nation would be one of the greatest agricultural buying countries and the problem would be the maintenance of a "prosperous, self-reliant, confident agriculture In a country preponderantly commercial and Industrial." Education by the land grant colleges looking to "wise and Intelligent farming co-operation In all business operations which affect the farmer," Mr. Coolidge declared, would be one of the main agencies for protection of this industry. He also stressed the value of organizations and methods seeking economies and greater efficiency In producing and distributing. The President urged that the educators and farm leaders turn their attention to scientific marketing. The agriculture problem of today, he insisted, was not on the side of production but on the side of distribution. Too little thought had been given to this phase, he added. "Up to the present time," Mr. Coolidge continued, "the main emphasis of our agricultural education has been placed upon production. I believe that was right, because unless there is economy and efficiency in production there is no need for thought In any other direction. But our experience of the last few years has demonstrated that it is by no means enough. The farmer is not only a producer, he is likewise a merchant. It does him no good to get quantity production, In fact it may do him harm, unless he can Likewise have scientific marketing. "It has been attested by all experience that agriculture tends to discouragement and decadence whenever the predominant interests of the country turn to manufacture and trade. We must prevent that in America. I believe the land grant college is the main great agency for its prevention. It has added a new element to the equation which has never before been In it. You must make that element decisive." POULTRY POULTRY MANURE IS RICHEST PRODUCED Enlisted in U. S. Army, A STUDY of the part women played In the World war, with a view to "the utilization of women In all branches of the military service In case of future emergency involving a maximum of effort" has been undertaken by the War department A questionnaire has been sent to all commanding generals of corps areas and department chiefs, asking for Information, and the move has stirred up no little Interest In military circles. The War department's action is the result of recommendations from committees of the Army War college and from officers of the general staff that a study should be made of the advisability of organizing a Women's Army corps, in which the women would be regularly enlisted and uniformed. So fur the movement is in the nature of a historical study and nothing definite has been determined regarding an organization. Some of the department officials believe, however, that If a women's army service corps were organized as a result of the Investigation, It would be advisable to place a woman In command, assigning her to the general stuff, While the advisability of using women in "all branches of the military service will be considered by the survey," It was said today that there was no Idea of using them in combatant organizations. In describing the purpose of the investigation the letter sent to commimdlng officers says that during the World war 250,000 women were in military service with the British army. The lowest estimate of women serving with the United States army overseas and In this country Is 90,000; this includes welfare workers, clerks, telegraph and telephone operators, dietitians, cooks, waitresses, laundresses, matrons, tailors, post exchange workers and women employed in the Reclamation service. It will be necessary to utilize women In the military service in time of war: To promote the efficiency of the army ; because women will not be satisfied If they are not permitted to serve In an emergency. A study is being made to consider: The needs of the various branches of the army; the advisability of employing these women as civilians under military control; or of organizing a Women's Service corps similar to Queen Mary's Army Auxiliary corps; to form the basis of a plan for the War department general mobilization plan. Poultry manure Is the richest of any produced on the farm, says the New York State College of Agriculture at Ithaca, yet It receives from the farmer the least attention of any of the animal excrements. Average mixed horse and cattle manure carries ten pounds of nitrogen, five pounds of phosphoric acid and twelve pounds of potash a ton. Poultry manure contains in comparison 32 pounds of nitrogen, 35 pounds of phosphoric acid, and 18 pounds of potash. Where ordinary farm manure haa a fertilizer value of $1.50 a ton, poultry manure is worth $5.00 a ton. Even when produced in small amounts, such material, says the college, Is well worthy of careful preservation. Poultry manure should be allowed to dry as quickly as possible and be kept dry. In this condition It will lose but little of Its valuable constituents. Like ordinary manure It ferments rapidly when moist and will lose thereby a large percentage of Its nitrogen, worth on the market 25 or 30 cents a pound. Since much of its potash, phosphoric acid, and nitrogen is soluble, this manure may saffer greatly from leaching. Caustic lime should never be mixed directly with poultry manure as it tends to liberate nitrogen as ammonia. Poultry manure is rich in nitrogen and low In phosphorus. These two conditions may be corrected by diluting and reinforcing the manure as follows: To ten pounds of the manure add six pounds of sawdust (or some similar dry material) and four pounds of acid phosphate. This gives a fertilizer carrying 8 per cent of nitrogen, 3.6 per cent of phosphoric acid and .45 per cent of potash or about the same proportion of plant food elements that are found In a 3-12-2 mixture but only one-fourth as concentrated. Uncle Sam Het Up Over Muscle Shoals SENATORS who favored the Ford bid for Muscle Shoals are seeking the aid of Western senators for a compromise government plan of operation for the properties to be submitted to congress. At the same time Secretary Weeks Is taking steps to ascertain the scope of his authority to contract for the temporary disposition of power generated at the plant, should congress fail to make final disposition of the properties prior to completion of Wilson dam next July. Should congress fall to dispone of the question and should the secretary And himself without authority to lease the output of the plants, they would lie Idle. Senator Norrls (Rep., Neb.) has submitted a government operation plan, and leasing advocates of the Ford bid, convinced that Mr. Ford has withdrawn from the competition, are seeking a plan having features of the Norrls proposal, but considerably amended. Secretary Weeks asked Major Gen- ?ral Hull, Judge advocate general of the army, to furnish him with an opinion as to his powers In handling the properties. General Hull advised Secretary Weeks It was his opinion that the federal government has ample authority to sell to private and commercial enterprises power generated by the Wilson dam. While there may be some difficulty in finding companies willing to make short term leases for all the power developed, nearby power companies are known to be prepared to take a large part of It. Secretary Weeks conferred with Elon H. Hooker of New York, who has been at work for some time on a proposal for the creation of a gigantic chemical and Industrial plant at Muscle Shoals. The conference was one of a series which have been held by the two during the last year. It was said that Mr. Hooker hoped to have his proposal in shape for submission to congress at the forthcoming session. Nearly 200 members of the Illinois Manufacturers' association recently made a two days' Inspection of the Muscle Shoals power project. The Illinois Manufacturers want to get a first hand Idea of the power situation in order to know how to swing 'their united strength when congress takes up the Muscle Shoals problem in December. "Look to the West for Office-Holders!" ALTHOUGH President Coolidge made It known that he contemplates no changes to speak of In his cabinet and in the corps of ippolntlve officials generally, the pollicians think otherwise and already lave begun the scramble for the places JOW held by the appointees of the late President Harding. The politicians are convinced that iven If there are no wholesale changes ±ere will he a gradual and steady readjustment of patronage to conform to the views of Mr. Coolidge and that Defore many months the roll of appointive officials will bear the Coolidge itamp quite as unmistakably as, It now Dears the Harding stamp. If the President takes the advice of some Republican leaders who have his political welfare closely at heart he will look to the West for a greater number of important office holders than has been customary in the past. In the late election the West was extremely Important territory to the Republican candidate. T h e n were more doae states In the West than in the Bast tad it was In the West that the sarloos Republican defections I were eoc*uate*sd. defection* which under different circumstances, such as may prevail In 1928, might prove fatal to Republican success. A greater distribution of patronage to the West in the view of the practical politicians, would go far toward strengthening the Republican party In a quarter where it needs to be strengthened without delay. In the cabinet as it existed up to the time of the death of Secretary of Agriculture Wallace there were nve Eastern and five Western members if Secretary of Commerce Hoover be credited to California instead of New York, where he really has lived in recent years. But when you take the appointive service as a whole you find more than three times as many important offices held by Eastern as by Western men. One reason that the East receives by far the larger share of appointments to important offices is that under Republican administrations the Eastern states generally possess greater influence at the White House because they keep their senators and represents* fives for longer periods than do the Western states as a rate. t • • . • ' - ' ; • • . • : , - % . , •{.'",' fl'f" Kf> ' E1 y , !

It Is usually found during the changeable seasons, and not much during the summer. Sometimes chicken pox and roup are present in the same flock. Chicken pox can be very easily recognized from the small nodules on the comb and about the face of the bird, which at first closely resemble small pimples. The pimples gradually enlarge, the tops slough off, and then they become small ulcers. Treatment: The same sanitary precautions recommended for other Infections and contagious diseases should be taken, namely, separating the birds and disinfecting the pens. A laxative of one-quarter pound of epsom salts to 25 or 30 birds, mixed In a bran mash or with milk, should be given. When given with the mash, dissolve first In water, and then mix with the feed. This can be given them after the birds have been fasting for 24 hours, The sores on the head can be treated with zinc oxide ointment, using a match or a toothpick to apply the remedy. Vitamines in Bran Good Feed for Poultry Flock Bran is a standby foodstuff for the poultry keeper. It Is not as digestible as some other feeds which enter into the rations of chickens, but It is rich in mineral and vitamin elements. When only concentrated food is given to hens their vitality Is quickly sapped. Bulk Is required to ensure the proper assimilation of the food, and this is obtained In large part when a proportion of bran enters Into the ration. Some poultrymen advise the feeding of middlings In place of bran, but to do this Is to do away with one important "roughage" food necessary to keep the birds in good trim. It is not a question of whether we should use wheat middlings or wheat bran. Both should be used in nearly equal proportions, the two together, constituting nearly 50 per cent of the entire grain ration.

To polish the silver plated reflectors is simple enough, though wise men usually get a bawling out from friend wife before the Job Is completed. Why? Because they know that wifie's fffce rouge Is the best possible polish for lamp reflectors. Just moisten it with alcohol and you will find that it is' a wonderful cleaning and polishing agent. But don't pass the buck to me when your wife discovers that I tipped you off. Reflectors Are Important. The reflectors are the most important part of the headlights. Without them the lamp bulbs are of little value and the lens do nothing but direct the rays. A lamp of U0-candlepower, with proper reflector and lens, will give all the light any driver needs. Higher candle-power bulbs will only serve to run down the battery because they consume too much current. Miniature bulbs vary greutly in the volume of candle power delivered and their length of life. The high grade standard bulbs give more satisfaction than the cheaper kinds, for great care Is necessary in the manufacture of the miniature bulb. If the reflectors on your car are bent, rusted, fogged or scratched they must be repaired, polished or resllvered until the light emanating therefrom will admit of the correct observations being made. And how does one adjust headlights? Here is the w a y ; How to Adjust Lights. Stand the car on level gTound 25 feet from and facing a wall. Draw a horizontal line on the wall at the height of the lamp center. Draw two perpendicular lines at the same distance apart as the two lamp centers. Adjust the locus of each light until the top of the bright part of the bearo is flush with the horizontal line; and so that the area of the bright part is divided evenly by the corresponding perpendicular. When headlights glare they are not only dangerous to the approaching car but they fail to give the best Illumination to the man driving that car. If you cannot adjust the headlights yourself, why go to some service station that can. * 4 4 4 4 4 4 t * 4 4 4 4 4 4 $ 4 4 4 0 4 4 4 4 4 4 t 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 Interesting Points on Parking a Motor Contrary to many a driver's experience, it is easier to park a car on a hill than on the level— If you know how. On a hill It Is not necessary to shift from low to reverse, or vice versa, for the forward and backing movements. The car will coast In one direction, depending upon the hill. It will be necessary to use the brakes, but then that Is necessary in most parking anyway. "No parking" signs are frequently used to mark the boundaries of forbidden ground. It may be quite all right to leave your car a foot from such a sign if you are on the safe side. Don't take a "No parking" sign too literally until you learn what it really means. Curb-Blocks Will Help Trucks to Mount Curbs Two heavy blocks cut in the manner shown and handed with heavy iron will be very useful to carry on heavy trucks whgn it is necessary for Every Motortruck Should Carry Two of These Curb-Blocks, them to go up a curbstone. A ring is attached to each one of the blocks so they may be hung on the truck when *iot in use. The illustration showing the blocks and their use is self explanatory.—Q. Bender, In Popular Science Monthly. C u r e f o r I n t a k e L e a k a g e Leakage around the stems of the intake valves usually manifests Itself in a falling off in power, difficult start1 ing and misfiring at small throttle openings. A makeshift remedy lies In fitting the valve-stem guides with some form of lubricant-retaining meant. This may be either a series of narrow grooves cut in the valve stem and Into which a graphite and o i l paste has been rubbed so as to fill them, or stuffing boxes may be fitted at the outer coda of the guides. The latter la the more permanent and satisfactory Job, la-that aboold the gntde wear considerably the ant may be drawn down upon the picking, thereat preventing leakage. Make Sure Spring Clips Are Put Together Tight If any proof be required of the necessity of keeping spring clips tight it may be found In the fact that neither dealers nor manufacturers will replace a spring that is broken through the center bolt hole—the place where moat springs give way, observes a contributor to the American Motorist, who goes on to say : "Breakage of this nature Is taken as evidence that the spring clips were not kept tight. The spring clips are subject to bending In two directions, with the result that excessive strains are Imposed at the weakest point, which in this case is at the bolt hole, "The spring clips should be seated perfectly tight by drawing the nuts up as close as possible with a wrench of such size that there Is no question of their being t i g h t It Is well also to bear in mind that even a nut secured by a lock washer will ultimately work loose; hence the necessity for looking over your spring clips now and then," Shirt Gears at Crossings More than one motorist has been killed by stalling his motor on the tracks In front of an oncoming train. The driver slows down when approaching tlie tracks, believes he has time to get across, and then fails to start his motor up sufficiently to negotiate the rougher going across the tracks. , The safest thing to do is to shift Into second or low before starting across the tracks, aad yon can thee be sure of keeping going when going ahead may be all-Unportant JtA'A^JJ'+'^^-^J^^AMfC, <The Kitchen Cabinet do3S555oo555555555355oo5oo 1(¾.

BROWN'S SAXOPHONE SIX' One Mother*9 Tribute to Daughter-in-Law When I first saw my son Tyler's angelic manner under his wife's regime I lield my breath, because in the old days Tyler in u beatific Kate of mind meant Tyler getting ready to break out in a new place. But as time goes on and the serenity remains unbroken, I repeat to myself that perfect line from the "JuM So Stories"—"Not always was the Kun^uroo as now we behold him"—« text that I recommended to all mothers who have »een their brisk sons neutly trained by well-selected wives. j Indeed, the longer I live the more [ ready I am to believe that a younv I man's wife may be better acquainted I with his actual current present day j (self than his mother can possibly ht'. i My daughter-in-law sees in her hus- ! band a forceful man of affairs on whose judgment she implicitly relies. !

One grieves to see the riaing generation so Ignorant of the Bible. For, Its religion aside, no young American can afford to be Ignorant of It. To be Ignorant of the Bible Is to be unuble to understand much of the best in English literature. The student of today can have no understanding of the majesty of the English tongue without knowledge of the Bible. Ignorant of it, he Is unable to appreciate much of the beat in the art »nd music of the world. While it Is doubtless rrue that Young Amer ica is growing up In STATE NEWS IN BRIEF By JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAN |T WAS a long time ago— nearly 20 centuries—that Christ Jesus was born In Bethlehem of Judea. But it was so wonderful a tiling that the world changed Its culendar to reckon time from that first Christmas day, which gave man a fresh •tart and a new ideal to work for. And now, Anno Domini 1924, that Bethlehem manper Is still the source of man's Inspiration and spiritual power, still the center of the world's Interest and affection. Chrlstlnnity—us represented by the churches and the sects—seem to be at war with Itself. Fundamentalists and Modernists debate fiercely, one with the other. The church Is accused of Inefficiency. The authority of the Bible Is denied. There are those who predict the decline and fall of Christianity. Nevertheless, make no mistake about this: Chrlstlnnlty Is still the driving power of the world. No man can live near It and fall to take nn attitude toward It. It alms nt peace, but to bring about that peace it must triumph. The human race on this earth must either extirpate It or accept and practice It—If It wants peace. And the central fact of Christianity Is Jesus Christ—his life and person. If experience teaches anything, It teaches that man wants poodness, gropes after higher things and prays for redemption. This Is human nature. And un til human nature changes and man ceases to believe In goodness and yearns not for salvation, Christianity Is his hope and refuge. This Is the truth nil men know at Christmas. Then their hearts soften with love toward home and children and neighbor—and "to men of good will" everywhere. This monns that social reform must come from within-. It cannot be forced by law. The Kovernment of a c o u n t r y n e v e r g e t s ahead of the rellg-lon of the c o u n - try Ther*» Is no w a y by which w e can s u b s t i t u t e the authority of l a w for the virtue of man Of course, w e can help to restrain the vicious and m a i n t a i n a fair degree of security, and protection by legislation and police control, but the real reforms which s o c i e t y in t h e s e days Is sreklnR will c o m e as a result of our religious convictions, or t h e y will not come at all. Peace, Justice, 'humanity, c h a r i t y — t h e s e cannot be legislated into beinjr. They are the result of a Divine Grace. So said President Coolldge in a reicent public address. Forget the au- N)Orlty of his office; remember that • Culvfn Coolidgc, the mnn, has won a President Coolldge said elsewhere In his address. Conversely, toss of faith in a religion that teaches liberty, Justice, humanity, charity means ultimately loss of faith in the American government. The head of Jesus given herewith is at once a delight to the eye and a Joy to the heart. It looks as one imagines the young Jesus did look. The painter's brush, the graver's tool and the sculptor's chisel have been busy through the centuries with represen tatlons of Jesus. Yet In all the world Is there a likeness of Him with any credible claim to authenticity? One thinks not. But there Is a word picture of nn older Jesus that pleaseB. It Is attributed by tradition to Publlus Lentulus, who Is said to have been a Roman centurion in Palestine during His lifetime. Here are the legendary words of the Roman captain: There has appeared In this, our day a man of great virtue, named J e s u s Christ, who is yet living- a m o n g s t us, and w i t h the Gentiles la accepted as a proDhet of truth, but His o w n disciples call Him the Son of God. He ralseth the d»»ad and cureth all manner of d i s e a s e s ; a man of Btature s o m e w h a t tall and comely, with a very reverent c o u n t e n a n c e ; such as the beholder may both love and fear; His hair Is of the color of a Albert, full ripe, and plain down to His ears, but from His ears d o w n w a r d s o m e w h a t curled, and more orient of color, w a v i n g about His shoulders. In the midst of His head g o e i h a seam or partition of hair, after the m a n n e r of the N a z a r l t e s ; His forehead very smooth and plain; His face, nose and mouth so framed a.% n o t h i n g can be reprehended, HIB beard somew h a t thick, a g r e e a b l e to the hair of His head for color, not of any great length, but forked in the middle; of an Innocent and mature look; His eyes gray, clear and quick. In r e p r o v i n g He la terrible; in ad-, montshtng courteous ar.d fair spoken, pleasant in speech, amidst gravity. It cannot be remembered that any have seen Him laugh, but m a n y have seen Him weep. In proportion of body, well shaped and s t r a i g h t ; His hands and arms m o i t b e a u t e o u s to behold; In s p e a k i n g very temperate, modest and w i s e ; a man of s i n g u l a r virtue, s u r p a s s i n g the child r e n of men. As to the Bible, there are those who hold to Christianity—at lenst in theory —but profess scant faith in the Book of Books. This seems foolish, if it Is admitted that Christianity Is the true religion find that Christ* Jesus Is Its central fact. For the Bible is the book that contains His life and teachings. The noble Bible pictured here Is the one on which George Washington and Warren G. Harding took the oath of office. Did they not honor themselves by taking oath on the Book of Books?

Here is an old Greek fable that Is just as true today as it was four thousand years ago. Irene, at great expense, Journeys to Epidaurus to see Esculaplus in his temple, to consult him about her maladies. First, she complains that she is weary and harassed with fatigue; the god declares this Is because of the length of the journey she has taken. She says she has little appetite in the evening; the oracle tells tier to dine sparingly. She says that she is liable to insomnia; he prescribes that she shall remain In bed only at night. She asks why she Is growing fat and the remedy; the oracle replies that she should eat less, get up before midday and sometimes make use of her legs. She asserts that wine is bad for her; the oracle tells her to drink water. She com- ' plains that she suffers from Indigestion and he adds that she should regulate her diet. "My sight is growing weak," says Irene. "Wear spectacles," says Esculapius, "I am growing feeble, too," she continues, "and I am not as strong and healthy as-1 have been." That, says the god, is because you are getting old. "But how can I cure this languor?" "The shortest way, Irene, is to die as your mother and grandmother did before you." "Son of Apollo," exclaims Irene, "what kind of advice Is this? Is this the knowledge which men publish abroad, which causes you to be reverenced by the whoLe world?

Ever since our common mother, Eve, met the snake in the Garden, the human race has feared and hated snakes, This Is not only foolish but actually harmful. Black snakes, bull snakea and all the grass snakes and garter snakes are not only harmless but are also friends of the farmer and garden* er, as they destroy quantities of rats, field mice ano> other destructive ' animals. There are 163 varieties of snakea In the United States, of which 17 varieties are poisonous. Venomonsy snakes all belong to one of four va7 rietle8: rattlesnakes, copperneadsv water moccasins and coral snakes. The coral snake is found almost exclusively In Florida. Water moccasina and copperheads are common hi the Southern states. Rattlesnakes are distributed widely all over the country. It Is a common belief that whisky Is an antidote for snake bttes and L that the only thing to do is to givaVk the victim ntl the whisky that he can possibly drink. As much as five or six quarts of whisky have been given In a few hours. Such an enormooa dose of alcohol Js quite aa dangerous as the snare poison. / " In case of snake bite, tie a bandage around the arm or leg (the parts most usually bitten) above the bit*. This may be made of a belt, garter, suspender, handkerchief or atrip of underwear. Twist it with a stick, pencil or knife handle, until the flow of blood is shut off. Then, with a sharp knife, cat through the bite, making two cats at right angles to each other and st least as deep aa the bit*, freer the flow of blood the bettor.

There is less competition in a i small town, and more leisure. i The small-town girl who doesn't , knew what she can make her "paying ; hobby" should take an inventory of , her abilities.

I were invited to meet the bishop of Oxford, Samuel Wllberforce—known j as "Soapy Sam"—at the vicarage. j Mrs. Tooke was a woman who always d f s s e d well. On this occasion J she wore a black velvet crinoline, j trimmed with old lace, which set off i her remarkable complexion. After lunch, as she talked to the bishop, a j curious sound like an angry serpent hosing penetrated the drawing-room. While the guests paused in astonishment, "Soapy Sara" looked mystified. Then a grumbling noise was heard, a decided squeak, a shriek, and loud report, followed by profound silence. When a little later Mrs. Tooke rose to bid her guests farewell, her dress hung In heavy folds all round her. Afterward she explained what had happened. Her dressmaker had persuaded her to have a special fixture to her crinoline which consisted of tubing, inflated with air, fastened tightly with a screw. This uncanny contrivance made the skirt flow out, hi;' Mrs. Tooke struck her foot against the screw and the whole structure collapsed as the air escaped.— San Francisco Argonaut, New Breakfast Caps Expert Shingle Weaver* In xpiic of the mull iplication of effic|< at nan ldne« to lighten and simplify labor, shingles are still woven (or pr.eked) by hand. No machinery has yci been Invented capable of eliminating the expert shinclc weaver. Examine a bunch of shingles as the carpenter takes them apart for shingllnjf the roof, and you will -ee the unique process by which the compact bunch has been woven. Now n wide shingle. now a narow one, makes the bunch the | exact width, and all day long the weaver stands and seizes shingle after si ingle thrown nut from the sawing n, ; hlne, and without any false moves w-aves them into compact bunches. T!" term shingle-weaver has been ext n d e d by custom, till it now applies to anyone who works in any departin nt of a shingle mill. Historic Cray's Inn Linked With America < 1 ray's inn, in London, has long been the mecca of the Baconian. Those people who believe that Francis Bacon wrote Shakespeare's plays visit the inn to see the hall in which Bacon for m: ny years presided as treasurer, and the gardens which he planned, says the Petroit News. There are links between the inn and the United States. There was a Lawrence Washington. admitted a student in 1607. whose brother Robert was a direct ancestor of George Washington. There is an en'ry in the admission register of the Inn recording the membership of TI -mas Vale. This was an ancestor of Klihu Yale, whose piety helped to found a great American university. Andrew Hamilton was a member of the inn. His admission I* recorded in 1714; "Andrew Hamilton, of Maryland, America, gent." Hamilton designed th" state house of Philadelphia, the ding which was the birthplace of American republic. Don't forget that breakfast caps are among the lovely things that women expect at Christmas.

The successive deaths of Senators Lodge of Massachusetts, Brandegee of Connecticut and Colt of Rhode Island have made vacant the chairmanships of the Important committees of foreign relations, the Judiciary and Immi gratlon respectively. The foreign relations and Judiciary committees are regarded as two of the best posts in the whole senate, the finance, rules and appropriations committees being the only ones of similar rank. ship Senator Cummins, the president pro tempore of the senate, will be in line for the chairmanship of the Judiciary committee. The progressives and Democrats in this session refused to let Cummins retain the chairmanship of the interstate commerce comrnlttee while he was at the same time president pro tempore of the senate In the absence of a vice president. Now that General Dawes wiH be-. come presiding officer of the senate in the next congress there will probably be no objection to Senator Cummins taking this chairmanship or possibly Tne ranking Republicans on the for- I resuming the chairmanship of the In elgn relations committee are Senators terstate commerce committee. Borah and Johnsoc of California, the former being chairman of the committee on education and labor at this time, as well as the ranking member of the Judiciary committee by the death of Senator Brandegee.

Tax Reduction Postponed Until 1925 POSTPONEMENT of tax reduction or any extensive revision of revenue laws until the regular session of congress convening In December, 1925, is the definite program of the administration. This was indicated following a conference between President Coolldge and Secretary of the Treasury MeHon in which the tax situation was discussed. Secretary Mellon, It was learned. has been advised by tax experts In the treasury that it would be unwise to attempt any further changes In tax rales until after Information Is available showing the actual effect of the new rates of the revenue act of 1024. Because no satisfactory data showing to what extent the present lawwill cut revenues will be available before the end of the calendar year 1925. Secretary Mellon has been Informed that It would be folly to tinker with the present law either'during rne coming winter or at a special session in the spring. Due to this situation the administration will be Inclined to oppose any movement for a further flat cut of 25 per cent in Individual Income tnxes during the coming short session of congress. Possibility of a horizontal reduction of this sort to apply on income taxes paid next March on earnings of the calendar year 1924 was suggested by Senator Smoot (Rep.., Utah), chairman of the senate finance committee. President Coolldge is on record for a further tax reduction at the earliest opportunity. He will reiterate his ai vocney of such action In his annual message to congress in December. In view of the information furnished him by Secretary Mellon, however, he will violating the same laws, They paid $45 each for killing the two birds. Detroit—John C.

Coolidge Isn't Going to Rock the Boat THE business boom which was the great outstanding visible result of the presidential election Is due, ha the opinion of President Coolldge, to the confidence of the business community in the stability of the administration of the government. It has been the foremost aim of the President to produce and preserve that stability and public confidence and it will continue his foremost aim. He Is going to keep the ship of state on aa even keel. There will be not the slightest uncertainty to trouble producers, employers and wage earners, If he can help It. He even desires to dispel such small uncertainties as are Inherent in rumors of marked changes in bis cabinet or in his policies or In his own attitude in the discharge of his duties. He contemplates few If any changes In his cabinet and no changes in policy or In his attitude as Chief Magistrate of the nation. There Is to be no difference, he has Indicated, between Calvin Coolidge as President tn his own right and Calvin CooHdge as official heir of Warren Harding. Stability and still more stability are what may be expected of the CooHdge administration. The President views with amusement the reports 'hat he is going to be a very different Coolldge when he takes the reins In his own right. He Is Just going to go on being himself, he avows, and even while serving out the Harding term he has tried to be hlmsetf and to do things tn his own instead of somebody else's way. Mr. Coolldge will be Inaugurated President next March, but until asked the question it had not occurred to him that his wishes might be desired as to an inaugural parade and an inaugural ball. He dismissed the subject with the observation that if there were a parade or a ball be supposed he would participate. As to changes In his official advisers the President has made It known he would like to keep his present cabinet Intact. The only cabinet member who has Indicated to the President a desire to retire on March 4 Is Secretary of Labor Davis, It was stated authoritatively. Wheat prices particularly interested the President In view of the accusation by LaFolrette campaigners that Wall street Influences had caused the price of wheat to go up In order to aid in the re-election of the present Republican administration. That this charge was without foundation, the President believes, was demonstrated by the fact that the price advanced after election. They See Dawes Presiding Over Senate A LOT of Americans, recovering from the Jubilation over what they did at the polls In elect- Ins Coolldge and Dawes by 10,000,000 plurality, are realizing today that they have made Charles n.

S. History By ELMO SCOTT WATSON 1¾ fl <6> ltl«, Wwtm NtwtMir Ualta.) Seen* of Last Battle in thm rWotatioeV In the summer of 1760 a Virginia banter came to a high bluff overlooking the Ohio river, and, impressed by the beauty of the spot, he took 'tomahawk possession," built a rude shack and remained there for several months, Sbeneser Zane was his name and the next year he returned, bringing with him several of bis friends and their families to make a settlement When Lord Dunmore, the governor of Virginia, decided la 1774 to make war on the western Indians who bad been attacking the border settlements* he ordered several companies of militia to rendetvous at the. Zane settlement and build a fort as the base for bis military operations. Accordingly a typical frontier stockade was erected here by MaJ. Angus McDonald, with tibeneser Zane and John Caldwell supervising the construction, and It was named Fort Fincastle, in honor of Dunmore, one of whose titles was Viscount Fincastle. When Dunmore's campaign ended successfully he left a garrison of 25 men at Fort Fincastle, who held the post until June, 1776, when the Revolution broke out and the frontiersmen took possession of it for the Continental congress. In 1777 the fort was enlarged and renamed Fort Henry, In honor of Patrick Henry. From that time on Fort Henry saw some stirring events. On August 3L 1777, it was attacked by 350 Shawnee. Mingo and Wyandot warriors, and during this attack Betty Zane made her famous dash across the bullet-swept clearing to carry back in her apron the powder so desperately needed by the defenders of the fort. Again on September 10, 1782, the Indians, aided by a force of British rangers from Detroit, swept down upon the post, but again the frontiersmen beat off the sttack. This was virtually the last battle of the Revolution and the war, which was opened by a shot from a little four-pounder on the walls of Fort William and Mary in New Hampshire, ended with the sharp crack of a frontiersman's long rifle at Fort Henry in West Virginia. After the Revolutlon^tS^Nrtght of Fort Henry was a welcome* one to thousands of emigrants who floated down the Ohio in their quest for homes In the West, for it was the symbol of the conquering pioneer, the outpost of white civilization which had successfully withstood all the savage assaults launched against It. When the frontier days were over the settlement around Fort Henry continued to grow and today it is the Important city of Wheeling. W. Va. take the lead tn according to Tmttfe T h e K e y to Ownership of the Ohio V a l l e y It was the keen military mind of George Washington that first saw the strategic importance of the spot where the Monongaheia and the Allegheny rivers Join to form the Ohio, and It was at his recommendation that Governor Dinwiddle of Virginia in 1763 ordered a fort built there to hold the country west of the Appalachians for the English. Hardly had Dinwiddle's party begun to work on the fort when the French appeared, drove them away, demolished the crude stockade and built on Its site Fort Duquesne, named for the governor of Canada. Thus began the great struggle between the French and English, known as the French and Indian war in America and the Seven Years' war in Europe, and control of this outpost on the American frontier was destined to be the principal factor In deciding whether England or France was to control the Ohio vaUey, and with it North America. It was against Fort Duquesne thst General Braddock • set out In 1759 on the expedition which ended so disastrously almost within sight of the fort and three years later Major Grant and his Highlanders, the advance guard of General Forbes' army, met a similar disaster while reconnolteting before It. But Forbes, unlike Braddock, did not scorn the advice > of Oeorge Washington, and he reached his goal. When he arrived at Fort Duquesne on November 15, 1758, he found that the enemy had left It a smoking ruin. The next year Gen. John Stanwix rebuilt the post and named It Fort Pitt in honor of the great English minister. It was soon needed, for fn 1763 the storm of Pontiac's war broke over the western frontier, and when one British post after another went down before the scalping knife and torch of the savages. Fort Pitt alone, although besieged for several months, held back Pontiac's warriors from driving the English Into the sea. It r-as to Fort Pitt's relief that Col. Henry Bonnet waa marching when he won bis mil. lisnt victory over the Indians at the battle of Bushy RUB, and thlA fort waa the base for hit later campaign, tn which he smashed the power of Pot> tiec's confederation.

We find It not only In sports and formal models, but even winding Its way Into tbe boudoir, says a fashion writer In the Washington Evening star. One of the shop* Is showing u iltree-piece affair in a negligee whle- la charming. It consists of pajaums of Chinese blue crepe de rhine, bordered and sashed In black crepe-back satin, and a matching breajkfasl coal of the bluck satin, banded iu blue silk, wadded. The ensemble idea la even carried out In Jewelry, and no one would think of wearing necklaces, bracelets or earrings that did not distinctly harmonize with each other and with the costume which they adorn. One of the most striking exponents of the ensemble modes is a distinguished Importation (nun Molyneux of Haris «nd is executed in a combination of crepe mnteriuts. The dress is of a handsome crinkled and stitched printed silk, woven especially fur thl* ir.odel in shades of cream, black and henna.

Is banded in wool of a deeper shiide of tan, with a senrf to match. There are also domestic models. In the lovely new autumn shades, furtrimmed or with braiding. Many of the cont dresses which are so liked this season, are made to give the appearance of a three-piece suit. A very handsome imported model Is especially of this type. The material used is a deep green twill, the ribs of which are at varying widths to stamp Its newness.

A gown of shining silver lace exploits the new circular Hare by means of godets inserted about the skirt. It. is a glittering example of the evening mode, but without thai gHUdlneas which offends gpod taste. Only the master designer could have created a model of such simplicity and style. The gown Is entirely of the sliver lac* with clusters of corn-flower blue nnd yellow flowers at the right shoulder and left hip. The stems of the flowers, in silver, trail down the side as far as the hem. The most Important rival of metal cloth for evening gowns this season is velvet. Being an exquisitely supple material, it lends itself to many uses and Is unsurpassed for formal dinner gowns. Relying on beauty of material for striking effects, the velvet models which the shops are showing are extremely simple In design.

ROAD COURTESY IS •OFTEN NEGLECTED Many Little Things Make Motor Traveling Most Difficult on Highways. (By BR WIN OREKR. President Oreer Collet* e of Automotive Bngrlneerini-, Chicago.) When you are driving along a road and someone approaching from behind sounds his horn to pass, let him do so. Many times when driving along the highway you may have noticed drivers give tbe signal to the car ahead and try to pass only to have the car on the right hand side speed up. Jangle's Driver's Nerves. It certainly jangles a drivers' nerves when he finds the car ahead speeding up when be attempts to go by. There Is no excuse for this sort of thing. If you want to pass, why should the man on the right step on the throttle and attempt to block you? There Is plenty of courtesy to be observed en the road besides mere theory. If we were more thoughtful of tbe other fellow, motoring would be a lot more pleasant Not Watching Road. The x)ther day a motorist reported that he was coming from Gary and was crossing the railroad tracks in South Chicago. There is a right angle turn there, and It Is dangerous unless low speed Is maintained. Coming around the turn a boy was observed driving a delivery wagon. He was taking about all the room to be bad on the highway and when this motorist looked at him he found the chap was busily engaged In reading a letter and was not watching the road at all. It Is Just such things as this Instance that makes motor traveling hard and troublesome If motorists would drive sanely there would be fewer disasters on the highways. Remove Scratches From Car Body W i t h Shellac A car owner naturally takes pride In the finish of a new car and endeavors to retain Its mlrror-Uke luster as long as possible. But when work must be done on the car the ^finish often suffers. Often a button will scratch Us way along a fender or the shipping of a screwdriver will leave an unsightly blemish. A method which has often given satisfaction, says the Automobile Digest, Is to apply several coats of thin shellac until the scratch has been completely filled. When the last coat has dried It Is rubbed with crocus cloth and a little olive oil, just enough to rub out the ridges where the new and old coats join. Crocus cloth, used extensively by jewelers, Is a polishing cloth of a much finer grade than the finest emery cloth and will rub down a surface without the semblance of a scratch. After no signs remain of where the Refilling Pressure T y p e of Grease Gun Is Easy Befllllng the pressure type of grease gun, such aa la used In conjunction with modern lubrication systems on automobiles, is a slow and tedious procedure as well a s disagreeable because of the amount of grease that Is deposited on the hands during the process. An improved method of filling, which was^ devised by a Washington (D. C ) motorist, is illustrated. It is simple enough to warrant adoption by any motorist who objects to having to fill the gun with his fingers or a stick, and is also a quicker method. The filler is simple, a flat strip of sheet metal, fitted with a wooden han- Cheapiy Made Charging a Grease. Filler Saves Tims in Pressure Gun With die on the upp*»r end. The blade part passes through a slot In a cap that is of the right size to fit the grease-gun barrel.

KEEPING WELL Dr. Frederick R. Editor of "Health.*' (ft). itj«. Western Newspaper listen.) BRIGHTS DISEASE NEARLY use hundred years ago, an English doctor, Bicbard Bright, wrote a paper for a medical journal, in which be described certain symptoms which he had found were associated with definite changes in tbe kidneys. Since 1827, this condition has been known aa Brigut's Bright found that, In all cases of tt»is disease, both the kidneys were affected. They were small and hard, the part of the kidney wblch does the work of excreting the urine from the blood was much smaller than it should be and the kidney was largely made up of tough scar tissue, showing that the kidneys had for years been subject to prolonged Irritation. Along with this change in the kidneys are changes in other organs. Tbe arteries become hard and thick; the heart, which baa to force tbe blood through these stiff and narrowed tubes, has become enlarged, especially the left side, which pumps the blcod throughout the body. This produces a high blood pressure. The symptoms caused by this condition are not sudden and marked, but come on so slowly as to be hardly noticeable. The peculiar thing about them is that they apparently have nothing to do with the kidneys. A popular belief, largely due to patent medicine advertisements, is that pain in the back la an early symptom of Bright's disease.' This is not true. Most peasaa who think that they have Ertghrs assess, a***'** kidney 4tsat aft. Many sessie who do set ft, have It, at are la the early stages of tt. Even an advanced esse may be entirely unconscious of it and may possess great mental and physical ability. 1t is this very insidiousness that makes Bright's disease such a danger to middle age. How does this dfcsea.se show Itself? In a general feeling of poor health. The patient Is tired, sleeps poorly, has frequent headaches and digestive disturbances. The tongue Is coated. The putient has to get up, sometimes several times a night to empty the bladder. The amount of urine is in creased and there is constant thirst. Attacks of bronchitis are common and the patient suffers from breathlessness, especially after walking briskly or climbing stairs. There is oft^n trouble with the eyes. The skin is dry and the perspiration scanty. Sometimes the ankles will swell or the skin under eyes will puff up. These symptoms, especially in men and women of middle age, are danger signals and should call for an Immediate and careful physical examination. D«>n't «att for them to become worse. Kind out now what the trouble Is and how far It has gone. GETTING THE RIGHT KIND OF FOOD M UCH has been written about the need of a properly balanced diet for both children and adults. The need of milk, fresh fruits and vegetables has been often urged. A certain amount of meat is known to be necessary. How can the average housewife know whether she is feeding her family In the proper proportion? She can't stop to weigh or to calculate the exact number of calories in each. She needs some general practical working rule by which to check up her food purchases and to estimate the relative amount of each kind of food she is giving her family. Volumes have been written by doctors, chemists, dietitians and food experts, but the real need la something that will make it possible for the busy mother to answer the question, "What shall we have for dinner today?" and to be sure that her answer will give her family tbe food it needs and In proper quantities 8nd proportions. In a recent book on "Food Products," Prof. Henry C. Sherman, the well-known authority on foods, has tried to answer this question, not In terms of food values and calories, but In the very practical terms of dollars and cents. Nor Is he simply theorizing, as he says that the plan has been followed In his own household with marked success. The advantage is that It Is suited to any family, of any number and of any Income. How much money do you pay out each week for food? It may be five or ten or twenty or fifty dollars. No matter. Divide this amount Into five equal parts. Spend one-fifth for fruits and vegetables, one-fifth for meat, fish and eggs, one-fifth for milk, one-fifth for breads and cereals, snd one-fifth for sugars, fats (such as butter, salad oils, etc.) and miscellaneous groceries. Such a diet would probably be not only more healthful but also more economical than the average. It would provide less meat and more fruits and vegetables. If this seems too much trouble, two simple rules can be followed. These are, spend at least as much for milk as you do for meats of all ktnda, tad as much for fruits sad fresh vegetables ss you do for either.

"Send the children to the dentists in groups," sayB Dr. Samuel AdfimH Cohen In Hygela, health magazine "and the visit will seem to the child an excursion of pleasure." Doctor Cohen tells how for several years it has been the custom of a Boston dental infirmary to assemble children in groups In one large waiting room which is used af? a playground. The children play games until summoned to the dental rhair and their minds are diverted from the main pur pose of their presence there. Gumes, toys, exhibits and miniature museums are used for the purpose.
