whom nothing escapes, is said to be Arguseyed The Impli cation is usually that one is of a suspicions nature, and this element Is quite in keeping with the origin of the expression The term comes to us from the parlance of mythology Argus being the creature of B hundred eyes who never went to sleep with more than two at s time He is familiar chiefly as the tool of the goddess Juno, who was al ways suspicious of her husband, Jupi ter, and who used Argus to watch bin It was his zealousness In watching Io, Jupiters mistress, whom the cod surprised by his wife, bad turned into a heifer, that at last brought Argus to crief Jupiter, troubled ot the distress of To who in the guise of a heifer, had been gven by Juno into tnTTcustody of Juno, enlisted Mereury to put Argus out of the way Leaping fro the heavenly towers to earth Mercury, disguised as a shepherd driving his flock, charmed Argus with the music of his Pandean pipes In vntn, however, did he try to lull the watchful eyes to sleep, until finally, with a supreme effort, he related to Argus the story of how the pipe upon which he played was Invented The fantastic story, accompanied by a plaintive melody from the instrument, at last caused the hundred eyes to close at once, and as Argus nodded forward for a moment Mercury cut off his head Copyright By MARTHA MARTIN nighttime and they had frozen and were strong, substantia

and another that you will Save a good deal This supertltion is only one exemplification of the mystic qualities which since man first begin tc clothe bis feet has been considered as pertaining to the tednl covering While conceived, in common with other ar ticles of mans clothing, to be Imbued with the mans physic I and spiritual egon the shoe appears in th prtmi tlve mind to have been conceived also possessing certain magical quaJI ties of its own As witness the divining by shoes, the significance Of having one foot shod and the othtr not, the putting of magical herbs into shoes and the throwing of the shoes as an emblem of subjection and of luck, etc as well as the ancient shoe taboos such as the prohibition of entering the Sanctuary of the Ms tress at Lyeosura io Arcadia shodfr the Shrine of Alectmna, daughter Of the Sun, at Rhode And In some cults the shoes of the priestesses were not to be made of the skin of any animal which had died a natural death The idea behind these

been Instead of Inveighing, as do some jof bis clergymen, at the immorality of the present styles, he commends them His opinion will probably make no difference, one way or another Women dress in the style, whatever it may be If the style should next year demand dresses reaching to the ankles, and heavy hunks of hair, these would be worn No woman wants to be considered odd or queer, and she will be if the does not conform to the male But the fact that so ouch ease and comfort, not to mention better health, bas come with the change In hair and petticoats TIU be sure to make women resist long

was the free ing of the legs, so that women could get real exercise when wulklng, md not mince along the street In constant fear of tripping It should be the duty of older worn er, to applaud and encourage modern Ores for women, for there never were styles so sensible as now, and there never was a time when women had so good an opportunity to develop their lungs and muscles, and return to the fashion which reigned in the days when the Venus de Milo was carved from the marble block In a time when women can play golf and tennis, when they can swim channels and ride horseback, when they can walk forty miles in ten hours, fashions which free the form are necessary As we said in the beginning we are not sure how long these styles will last When she does that she will do It not because of

traced to the birds becoming chilled because of a draft boose To laser oneself against thi onaealrsble condition it is necessary to hare the heosc airtight on three sides, HUB ia often difficult to do, but any cracks near the floor or directly around the rooata particularly are to be avoided These should by all neana be covered Cracks around the entrance door are a very common oc currence and one may often find the birds coddled op in a farcorner in an effort to keep warm By putting weather strips on the doors the pooltry men easily eliminate this problem After the three aides are tightened op, the front may be kept reasonably open At a role, however, it ia best to have about equal proportioua of glass and muslin in front, and the two combined may take up about one half of the front surface of the bouse The spaces between the rafters above the plate may also be kept open The muslin curtains should be closed at night and never opened on stormy daya or even in the early morning or late evening The house Bhould alwaya feel comfortable when one en tera it Many poultrymen have found that the glass substitute products have been very satisfactory They admit much more light than the mus lin, and also keep the house warmer Ventilation through the rafter spaces at the eaves Is usually sufficient to keep the birds in good health With the sides and front well taken care of, the only possible cause for drafta would be a long bouse without partitions To overcome the tend ency for the wind to sweep in one end of such a house and out the other, It is well to build partitions every 40 feet These should extend to the roof and come up to within three feet of the front of the house, or if de sired, a door may be fitted Into this threefoot space, making the partition solid Partitions in the roosting quar ters only should be built every 20 feet Forcing Maturity of Pullets Is Mistake It is a mistake to force the maturity of pullets with large amounts of milk or meat, warns 0 C Ufford, extension poultry, specialist, Colorado Agricultural college A pullet should have a good bedy growth before she starts laying An undersized pullet seldom makes a profitable ben Small amounts of milk or meat should be used to produce normal growth, but it Bhould not be overdone Feed plenty of grain, part of It ground, along with milk or meat Once pullets have begun to lay, Mr Ufford continues, the milk or meat should be gradually increased, aslt Ja part of the ration necessary to produce eggs If there is a deficiency of animal protein In the ration, production will graduolly decline and fall molt result Gradually allow the birdsall the milk they will drink, 01 if milk is not available brlnj the amount of meat scrap up to 20 per cent of the ground

Halpln of the Uni versity of Wisconsin at the Ohio poultry day at Wooeter, Ohio, is that the hatchability and food value of eggs may be changed with the type of feed given Professor Halpln asserted that the time will come when people will, demand that eggs for their children shall not cone from hens with rickets It is, as he said, generally agreed that en listen are benefited by cod liver oil especially during the winter months But it Is unnecessary to compel the children to take cod liver oil rhen It might as well be fed to the chickens In the first place, and the quality of the eggs improved to over come the deficiency Hopper Spate Standing in line for their feed is objectionable to bens, and, furthermore, they will not do thIr best when forced to do this, says B H Alp, poultry extension specialist of the college of agriculture, University of Illinois Hence the value of a good egg mash often Is limited by the hopper in which it is fed he said Feeding space for all hens at all times Is the rule that should be kept in mind In building a poultry feed hopoer, he recommended IP Too have the Ideaand eant get rid of itthat youre working for a lightweight omAt, yoed better

organisation You hurt the organisation, too, of course, but yoo loosen the rein on your selfrestraint, fix upon yourself a lax and dangerous bablt and decrease the value of the only thing you have to sellyour efficiency The good clerb realties the value of discipline in the sales organiza tion He knows that no organisation can succeed unless all its members do their work together along some well defined plan Therefore, the good clerb does his share by conforming to that plan, and he recognises every rule as a part of it Thus, the good clerk becomes a better clerk and increases the efficiency of the entire staff You may break a rule today and get away with it And you might duplicate the feat tomorrow or next week But een so you will have gained nothing of real value and in the end you will have lost Just a tittle of efficiency, Just a little of self respect, Just a little of your employers regardand a very considerable amount of character A retail clerb who observes the store rules is

peacetime cost of the dam and power plant The price received by the Government is only two mills per kilowatt hour At the same time farmers are buying millions of tons of fertiliser each year The use of fertiliser is stewty inffressing ant it would go forth by leaps and bounds if cheaper ferthisere were available President Coolidges Muscle Shoals Inquiry reported that proper utilisation of Muscle

farmers are demanding of Congrbss quick and full disposal of the Muscle Shoals question in accordance with the purposes adopted when the tax payers money was appropriated for this project namely, for the pro duction of nitrates for explosives to time of war and fertilisers in time of peace Congressman W F James, of Michigan, acting chairman of the Military Affairs Committee of the Bouse, has the

various kinds, let it be known that you have a savings bank account or food securities and you will be the object of a very rigorous campaign to relieve you of those sav lngs It is always Well to remember that the irresponsible promoter specialises on swindling savings depositors, exchanging his fake investment for their bank account, which is always worth 100 cents on the dollar Of the numerous bait schemes used to swindle the public the trading of equities in real estate is among the most successful from the promoters standpoint From the owners standpoint a trade usually means getting into deep er water financiallygoing further Into debt Heres how it works If you have an equity in a piece of property, which equity you would like to be relieved of, some promoter will offer to give you credit tor your equity on the purchase price of another piece of property or on the purchase of certain hot air stocks In the first place, the swindler actually allows you nothing for your equity as he marks up the price of what he is selling you a like amount with the result that you lose your equity on one hand and get yourself Into a less desirable deal on the other Proceed slowly, if you are ap proached with a proposition to trade an equity It may not be exactly what you prefer, but holding the equity is far ahead of holding the sack after some swindler has dealt with you Vm i4

can relate more personal anecdotes concerning the great doctors of this country than any other cnan in America Whence came this healer who is not a doctor, this confrere of surgeons who is not an

was all over and the doctor said, Pat, you may go home tomorrow he startled tie hospital management by announcing h a musical Celtic yoke, Tm not going home Im going to stay here And stay there Pat Scully did While lying on his hospital cot he had seen a vision He saw the faces of little children farrowed by pain, and they called to him piteously to help them in their suffering In his wheel chair he had visited the childrens wards and talked to the little sufferers, And when hie case was ready for discharge his mind was made up He would stay at the hospitaland amuse the children, would scrub the floors, mow the lawns, do other useful tasks hot, chiefly, he would do all in his power to ease the suffering of the children by diverting their minds from their afflictions He was only a layman, bnt he had a great, horny hand that was as tender as that Of a mother His smile, his eyes and his voice wore charged with hope and assurance and his great love for children was bis ruling

to Draft President Coolidge, By EDWARD W PICKARD P ASTERN Republican, political md business leaders, cannot reconcile themselves to seeing President Coolidge eliminated from the contest for the nomination next year They never hare given up the Idea that he could be drafted by the convention, nd ahqnld be, despite his expressed reluctance to run again Last week they got very busy, especially in Wall street and in New England, with plans to posh the Coolidge boom In Bos ton a chain letter petition was started by some of those who believe Mr Coolidge should be virtually compelled to accept a renomination The White Rouse correspondents questioned the President on this matter and be told them he could not see that the circulation of the petition would serve any good purpose and he hoped it would be discontinued This being telegraphed over the country, the proponents of the chain letter Issued a statement asking that all work on the plan cease Immediately However, the correspondents left the White House somewhat mystified and 4 as uncertain as ever in their interpre tation of the Presidents attitude toward the general proposition of conscripting him for another term Many Republican senators and representatives thought nothing had been added to the Coolidge statement of August 2 and that, while the President does not want another term and dees not want to be drafted, he nevertheless would not refuse to respond to the call If the party should ask him to sacrifice his personal Inclinations Others influential In the party believe he will not be a candidate under any circumstances The theory accounting for the sudden interest manifested by New York Republican leaders in the renominatlon of the President Is that they are becoming panic stricken over the dan ger of losing that state in the Presidential election That Al Smith will be the Democratic nominee is now generally taken for granted, particularly since dry Democrats have been teen throwing up the sponge in various parts of the country, and Smith has repeatedly shown his ability to carry New York state against great odds Unless Mr Coolidge absolutely rejects a renomlnation before congress meets on December 5 the antithird term agitation will be renewed, and Senator La Follette will reintroduce his resolution declaring a President should not serve more than eight years Frank 0 Lowdens boom grew somewhat with the authorised announcement that his name would be entered In the Indiana preferential primary Dawes, it was understood, would not contest the delegation with the former governor of

provided in rar days The exigencies of the conflict showed the Nation, first r of speed and, secondly, the benefits that accrue The accelerated of the war days was continued in the readjustment period and men soon realized their economic advantage Tremendous outlays vcments and betterments gave these an added incentive in the followed the dojse of the war New records are being made aimnsjflr and the good that flows from these is reflected in the greater prosperity that every class that makes up our society now enjoys THE railroad traffic unit the ton of freight is traveling more miles each day than ever THE additional mileage made by each ton of freight per diem meant that the manufacturer can utilize his plant to greater advantage by clearing his shipping room regularly and carrying a smaller inventory in bis stock mu The A distributor at destination can likewise carry on business with a smaller inventory inasmuch as he is always certain of regular deliveries The manufacturer puts through his bills of lading at the bank several days earlier than before and so his capital is turned over oftener ALL of these conditions mean benefits to every stratum of society THE railroad 7worker is paid higher wages for his services, since die railroads are doing more work and their unit of cost makes this possible THE consumer of commodities finds that prices are kept down to a lower level than would otherwise obtain THE business man, who ventures into modern business, can carry on with a smaller capital ALL, therefore, share in the benefits of the accelerated freight service

This would also mean considerable delay as articles of incorporation would have to be drawn up, the sale of the stock OKed by the state surities com, a corporation tax paid each year and a financial

miles la either direction waa DttceiSceat, The Judge allowed bis gaae to wander slowly from bill to hill, over lakes and rivers and valleys, and fait satisfaction was in no degree lessened by tbe consciousness that every acre belonged to bias, A fine property, Morgan Indeed it la Judge one of the finest tracts of wild land I ever aaw But what la the smoke down there r the Judge looked tn the direction Indicated A thin column of smoke waa rising bully above the tree tope, A party of banters or movers, 1 reckon, or perhaps a squatter who haa located his cabin there, be answered Suppose we go and see, They turned their horses down tbe slope and presently disappeared among tbe shadows of tbe great pines Ten minutes later they emerged into a clearing of four or five acres A small cabin stood on one side, and ail the undergrowth and tbe aaw palmetto was grubbed out Looks like a permanent occupant, Morgan observed See those little orange trees over In tbe corner, and tbe stumps that are being burned out Movers and squatters dont bother themselves that way Hello bello Tbe peremptory call brought a boy of thirteen or fourteen to tbe open doorway of the cabin As be saw them be hastened across the clearing Alright atrangere, be Invited cordially Weuns aint bad but one caller since weve been here Supperll be ready rlgh soon Then with a quick flush of pleasure 1 shot three big

tops of the trees to where the sun waa sinking low in the west Then be turned to his companion Might as well camp here as anywhere, eh, Morgan he said facetiously I confess the thought of those pheasants makes me hungry Have you good water, boy The best spring in the whole vailev is jest back o the cabin, waa tbe quick answer We all hunted right Attracting Attention Evcnbe Parisians are

and plans for the new town When supper was ready the boy Invited them into the cabin After tt waa finished they returned to the live oak That boy Is a mighty good cook, said the judge, heartily, as they, resumed their calculations over the pa pers I wish my man could turn out a bird like that He seems a bright little fellow all mnnd agreed Morgan Did you no tice the school books on the shelf Look like hes trying to study some At dusk the boy came out with a biasing brand 1 thought mebbe yonall would like a fire, he said Its gettln sort o cool He placed the brand under a pile of pine knota, and in a few moments the entire clearing was Illuminated bvv the blaze which went streaming up toward the sky The Judge rubbed his bands This is something like it, he said, beamingly Just look at the shadow dancing about under tbe pine Come Morgan, weve done enough today, The boy stood looking at them with an expression of geniality on bis freckled face Whats your name, my boy tbe Judge

Ive bought a big tract round here, and your little homestead is Included In It Now I didnt pay enough for the land to be niggardly about a few acres Mr Morgan and I expect to be In this neighborhood two months or more, but unfortunately, neither of us knows much about cooking You can turn out a pheasant better than any I ever saw, and If you will take charge of usd our cooking, and look after our

little town of Bethlehem ID Palestine some nineteen centuries ego there would have been no Christmas to be cele brated each year, hence no Christmases to be characterised as historic What those events were have best been recorded by the beloved physician,w St Luke, who, more than any one of the foor apostles who have written the story of Christ, has given the historic background of those events And this is the story of that first historic Christmas, as St Luke tells it Aad it cm to pass is those dan, that there went out a decree from Oseear Augaataa, that all the world eaooUl be taxed4 Aad thla taxing wae flrat mada whan Cyreataa waa governor of Syria Aad ail want to be taxed, every one lata hla own city Aad Joeeph alao went op from Oat Ilea, oat of the city of Nasareth, late Jades, an to the city of David, which la called Bethlehem because he waa of the boose and lineage of David To be taxed with Mary, hla espoused wife, being great with child, Aad ao it waa, that, while they were there, ibe days were accomplished that she should be delivered Aad aba brought forth her firstborn sos aad wrapped blm in awaddling cletaea, aad laid Mm la a manger because there waa ao room for them fa the laa Aad there were la the same country ahepherda abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by algbt Aad lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord ahoae round about them and they were aore afraid Aad the angel aald unto them, Fear not for, behold, I bring you good tid ings of great joy, which ahall be to all people For unto you Is born this day In the city of David a Saviour, which la Christ the Lord Aad this shall be a sign unto you Ta shall find the babe wrapped in swad dling clothes, lying In a manger And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising Qod and saying, Glory to Qod In the blgheit and on earth peace, good will toward men And It came to pass, as the angele ware gone away from them into heaven, the ahaoharda said one to an other Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and aee this thing which It coma to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying In a manger Aad when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which waa told them concerning thla child And all they that neard it wondered at thoae thfnga which were told them by the ahepherda But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them In her heart, Aad the shepherds returned, glorify lag aad praietng God for all the thlnga that they had heard and seen, aa t wae told unto them Those were the events, hen, which were destined to bring about the worldwide celebration of December 28 of each year However, this ob servance did not begin at once, for the vary first evidence of a feast having been held In honor of the birth of Christ wa in Egypt aboat the year 200 Althougr the regular observance of Christmas began sometime In the Fourth century, it was not until the Thirteenth century that the celebra tion became a general custom It Is Interesting to note that the first Christtras celebration in the New world took place only a little more than two months after that event which Is usually referred to as the discovery of America Soon after Christopher Columhus set foot npon the soil of the New world he started npon an exploration of the group of Islands which be had found During this time he anchored his ships In a harbor of Haiti, to which be gars the name of a saint whose lay Is eelebrajsd on December 6 and who in the gf minds of children is Inseparably con sad with Christmas daySt Nicholas Thm BattU Fer Tr a tajraa of be a e as Had TW waa led by Were Bat Twelve We aD Were eer ef the Letfa i Of LeTs as ear sae is ow The first Christmas in the New worldand surely It was s historic onewas sn eventful day tor Colum bus and his men They spent It in s vain effort to save the flagship, the Santa Maria, which had been beached on Christinas eve Finding that their efforts were doomed to fall, they took what goods they could from the ship and carried them on board the Nina Since this vessel was too small to carry all those who had been on board the flagship, Columbus fonnd It necessary to leave some of his men In a fort which was built on an Island and which in honor of the season was called Le Navtdad, The Nativity Although Christmas was, no doubt, celebrated by the early Spanish and French settlers in the New world, there Is no record of any outstanding events on that day connected with these settlements which would make their Christmas celebration worthy of the characterization of historic Christmas must also have been a joy ful occasion for the settlers of the first English colony at Jamestown Vs, even amidst the privations and troubles of the early days of that colony For they doubtless bronght with them the English tradition of the Old country Tuletide with all of Its feasting and merrymaking Quie different was the first Christmas of that other English colony founded on the stern and rockbound coast of New England The Pilgrim fathers landed from the Mayflower at Plymouth on December 21, 1620 But Christmas day thnt year brought with It no thought of revelry or gayety to these Englishmen This first Christ mas day found them without shelter from the piercing winds, since the day before was Sunday and no one was allowed to labor and disturb the sanctity of the Sabbath even for the purpose of building some sort of shelter from the Icy blasts of a New Eng land winter So, Instead of observing Christmas in any such manner as their descendants do, these pioneers celebrated the day with the swinging of axes, the felling of trees and the clearing of ground upon which their rude log cabins were to stand When the second Christmas In New England came around there was no Joyous celebration, for still another reason During the preceding year as other ship had brought a load of eaaV grants and of this colony William Bradford, a stem Farkao, waa governor Be formally outlawed Christ mas, aa the Puritans of England had done when they had gained control of parliament, because It waa looked uponat least ao far aa the Old English celebrations with their strange mixture of ancient Druid customs and Christian ceremoniesas a godless and pagan rite More than that the General Court of Massachusetts, frowning upon the Idea of making the Christmas season a time of enjoy ment passed an enactment which stated that who is found observing by abstinence from labor, feasting or in any other way, efcaJf pay for every offense five shillings For more than a century the stem Puritan influence prevented snytbing but a most Joyless observance of Christmas until the gradual growth of Episcopal Influence In ilassachusets and Its association with official power, when the colony came under the direct control of the crown, brought about a relaxation of the antiChristmas sentiment of the Puri tans In contrast to the Masse chusetts type of Christmas waa that cele brated in the great manor houses In Virginia, the Carolina, Georgia and Maryland, especially in those days when George Washington waa un known to fame except as a prosperous Virginia planter And it was this sans George Washington who waa the central figure In what la perhaps the most historic Christmas In the annnls of America On the evening of December 25, 1776, the Continental army, led by this former Virginia planter, waa drawn op for evening parade near Newtown, Penn, nine miles above Trenton on the Delaware river Instead of returning to their quarters they were marched toward McKonkeys ferry, where Colonel Glovers fishermen from Massachusetts bay were manning boats and trying to launch them In the river It was a cold raw evening and a snow storm had set in The wind was from the northeast and beat in the faces of the ragged, barefooted sol diers, who were about to embark upon one of the most desperate enterprises in history For Wushlngton was planning to cross the Delaware that night and lead them on a ninemile march over snowy roads to Treuton where the HessiaBrtroops of Colonel Rani were celebrating Christmas with feast ing and merrymaking The crossing had begun at six oclock Washington had planned to have his entire army on the Jersey side by midnight, begin the march to Trenton by one oclock, so that be could make his attack Just at daylight But the river Ice threatened to spoil his whole program and Gates and other generals declared that the whole scheme was Impossible The iron will of Washington was not to be daunted, however, and although the crossing took no less than ten hours It was finally accomplished Then he set out for Trenton, and after a terrible march, with some of lils men leaving tracks of blood In the snow and others struggling along with their guns wet and useless, he arrived in Trenton and Immediately attacked As he had anticipated, the appearance of his army was a completesurprise Although the HtessfahV rallied and put up a stubborn resistance for a short time, the determination ot the Continentals could not be denied Rahl, the commander, nnd seventy or his men were killed and 1,000 of the Hessians surrendered So Christmas day, 1776, is a red letter day In Amer ican history because on that day a great commander gave to hla country one of

TAKE THE PROFITS HIT OF FARMINC f By DAN H OTIS Dlreetor Agrleultural Commleelon, American Banker Aatoelatlen F DUSTRIAL lines suffer because of inefficient firms, whoa officers cling to old methods and place goods on the market Xn at a loss, to compete with the more efficient institutions Agriculture, too, has this problem to face We find farmers who fight new methods They retard the prosperity of other farmer by throwing on the market poor quality products, frequently produced at a loss The nature of the bankers business places him in a position to help this type of farmer as well as the more progressive farmer At the same time the banker can assure himself of good loans based on the farm as a going concern A study of the investments, sources of in come end expenses of the successful farm ers in his community will give the banker a measuring stick by which to gage the haz ard entailed in furnishing loans to other farmers This study is readily accomplished through the use of summaries of farm records In the absence of good records, survey Dions blanks which can be obtained from the agricultural colleges, may be used for collecting the information m A banker in a dairy

interpreting them in the light of Catholic belief The Paulist station is one of the few large broadcasting agencies in the United States which has no advertising features, tSe program being confined

churches, Father Gillis said Some persons undoubtedly prefer to stay at home and follow the ser vices with their receiving sets, but we have found that the vacant pews left by these are immediately filled by those whose interest in the services has been aroused through the radio and who have determined to attend the services in person In addition to his work as a lecturer, Father Gillis also

ELMO ftCOTT WAT80N prawfng by Ray Walters S THE New Tear comes round and the world faces another 865 days of busi ness and pleasure, there conies np again the question of into what units those 860 days are to be divided so as to give the most of as the opportunity to employ them the most profitably and pleas antlytn other words, the question of a new calendar For centuries calendaring has been subject to many changes anJ man has not yet obtained a satisfactory result When the Gregorian calendar now In use, was adopted, it was designed to conform to conditions of that period in hlntorj But conditions have so changed that it Is not best adapted to modern needs Business, especially, complains that It is put out of step by the calendars Irregularities and business til demanding a more standardised system Theresolutlon to do something definite about this matter dates from 1924 when the League of Nations appointed a committee of inquiry to go into the matter fit reforming the calendar and making recommendations for Its change This committee sent questionnaires to 56 countries, which are members of the league, and to religious and business authorities throughout the world Replies to the questionnaires have been received from 27 governments, 26 international organizations, 18 railroad administrations, the educational authorities of 28 countries and from a host of individuals The need of a reform, as pointed out by the committee, is that the Gregorian calendar has the defects of Inequality of Its months, quarters and half years and Its lack of fixity The result is confusion la economic relations, statistics, accounts and commercial transport figures All calculations of salaries, interest Insurance pensions, leases and rents which are fixed on a monthly, quarterly or halfyearly basis are Inaccurate and do not correspond with onetwelfth, onequarter or onehalf of the year In order to make daily calculations in current accounts with comparative certainty and speed, banks have to make constant use of special tables, Moreover, the unequal length of the conths has led financial concerns In most European countries to calculate deposit and current accounts on the basis of a year of 12 mouths of 80 days, or 860 days, whereas In the discounting of bills the year is still reckoned at Its exact number of days Owing to the fact that the present calendar is not fixed, but changes from year to year, Its exact reproduction takes place only once every 28 yean Hence the dates of periodical events can never be fixed with precision And, perhaps the greatest drawback from a statistical and commercial point of view, no genuine etattsttett comparison between one year and Aaetter la possible, while the various subdivisions of the year Itjf self are similarly incapable of com pariioiL As the year consists of 52 weeks, or 86d days pins one extra day two tn leap year, the question confronting an schemes of reform is what to do with the extra daythe 865th Tbr suggested reforms fall Into three main troupe, The first croup tries to simplify the reform as much as possible and to cause the least possible disturbance to existing habits aad cuatoms This they do by equal ising three of the four quarters of the year Thus, each of the first three quarters might consist of 91 days, or three months of 80, 30 and 31 days The extra day, the 365th, would be added to the fourth quarter which might then consist of three months of 80, 81 and 81 days with 82 in leap years, Such leveling up of the quarters, would, It is declared, be of real advantage from the point of view of quarterly statistics, stock exchange transactions, banktng accounts, and meteorological averages Furthermore calculations for finding the day of the week on which any given date falls would be considerably simplified Thus, If January 1 fell on a Sunday February 1 would he a Tussday and March 1 a Thursday and so on This group Interferes less with tradition than any other The issue raised, however, is whether its advantage which are considerably less than those of the other two groups of sua gested reform, are sufficient to war rant a change Tbe second and third main groups not only possess all the advantages of the first croup In equalizing the divisions of the year, but In addition, that of establishing a perpetual calendar and completely rectifying the existing calendar The result Is ob tained by making the extra day of the yearthe 805tha blank day namely placing It outside the week, as for In stance, between December 31 and January 1 The introduction of the blank day however, breaks the per petuity of the cycle of weeks, and raises certain religious difficulties mainly In Jewish circles Under the second plan, the year would be divided Intn four equal quarters of 91 days, each quarter consisting of three months of 80 30 31 days as with the first three quarters of the first group Then the extra day of the year would be counted as outside the week It might he called New Tears day and precede January 1 In this way all the quarters and half years would be equal Each month could contain the same number of working days On he other band, the months are not equal, and could not be made to contain a complete number of weeks Dates would not fall on the same day of the week In each month, while the comparison of future dates or statistics with past dates Is less complicated than tn the 18month group, but more complicated than in the first croup The third group Is the one which advocates the most radical reform Typical of this group Is the proposal sponsored by George Eastman, the Rochester N T manufacturer, and supported by a large group of business men in this country By this plan the year would be divided Into 18 months, tbe extra month being Inserted between June and July Bach month would have 28 days, the first of the month always being Sunday The extra 365th day would be known as Tear day and would be Inserted between December 2S and January 1 in leap years the 366th day would be inserted between June 29 and Jull Some of the advantages clulmed are that clock and watch dials could record day and date, that the four weeks would quarter each mouth, har monizing weekly and monthly receipts and disbursements, that pay days would recur ou the same month ly date, that periods of earning and spending would all be equal or exact multiples, that holidays and permanent monthly dutes wouLd always occur on the same days, that all months would be comparable without adjust ments, thut all holidays could be placed on Monday, and that there would be a faster turnover of money with 18 months instead of 12 While business would find many of these points advantageous, It has been pointed out that the 13month year would present certain objections, due to the fact that 13 to oot divisible by two, four and six So the quarters of the year, although they are equal, would oot correspond tn months or contain a whole number of months Advocates of the plan reply that quarterly and semiannual transactions could be worked out on a basis 01 13 or 26 weeks aim that many large firms in tills country already are us ing 13 28day periods In their ac counting systems One objection tn this plan, and It is one which prob ably will be hardest to overcome, Is that the 13month year would upset customs thousands of years old There is one particular reason why 1928 may see a definite step taken toward reforming the calendar 11 the committee can present to tbe League of Nations u satisfactory plan which it can recommend to the world for adoption, It should be done by December, 1929, since that is the last date when changes may be made for 1933 by the Greenwich and United States naval observatories Calcula tions for the attrononomlcal, tide and other tables are made about six years In advance by the British, American French, German and Spanish govern meats, and scientists already have begun their calculations for 1968 The year 1988 Is a particularly Important one for those whose reforms tion of the calendar calls for begin nlng the year on Sunday, since tbe first available Sunday on New Tears day comes tn 1988, after which none is available until 1989 Therefore, if the League of Nations committee can decide a plan which the league will adopt before December, 1929, tbe aim plifled calendar can go Into effect most easily in 1988 and the coming year probably wfU see tome strenue efforts made to bring that about Being en Time It baa been said that piiunaaitty ts the politeness of princes Save you

when they mechanically remarkSomething When 1 walk tnto a retail store and a clerk asks me whether 1 want to buy something bes questioning either my common sense or my goodfaith, although he may not Intend it that way If I didnt want to buy something, Pd have no business in that store, therefore, asking me such a question is Intimating that 1 either mean business or Im just killing time Whats the use of trying to guess my Intention Even though 1 might be only aimlessly wandering around, It wouldnt make any bit with me to tell me that youd caught me at it If youre bent on making a guessing contest out of my visit, why dont you guess that Im there to buy Then, even if youve guessed wrongly, you wont lose anything When I hear some clerk ask this question they give me the impression tint although their lips may be speaking those apparently harmless words, their minds are saying Oh, Lord, heres another pest well, what do you want tn here Then the thing I want most is to get out If your vocabulary is so limited that you cant find any better words to say to a visitor, try saying them in such a way that your inquiry wont amount to an Insult IJDUU find that tbe fault however, Is not in the words you use, but In tbe way you regard your work If you really desire to be of service to the visitor, you will welcome his call with a genuine pleasure that will show Itself in any mere words you may useIn our eyes, your manner and the kindliness of your personality Be eager to please Be au honest disinterested friend to every caller at your store Thats the only road to true salesmanship and If you follow It your first inquiry of the customer will form Itself naturally and heartily Into a warmhearted welcome that will lead you straight to success, Keeping Faith With the Easy Buyer T HERE are customers who will buy almost the first thins you show them To the clerk of an elastic conscience these people are Lsavensent opportunities for unloading stickers To the conscientious salesman, how ever, they are the sunsnine of his business day, a joy to the cherished and most carefully handled The critical buyer is sure of himself Re makes his purchases on his own judgment and usually hes Inclined to be philosophically fair when be finds hes bought something that Isnt entirely satisfactory Sometimes hell even chuckle s little over the clever salesmanship that induced him to buy especially If DO misrepresentations were made Bnf the easy buyer who has been stung on a purchase feels a sense of double Injury He has not only suffered a momentary loss, but his faltb in your store, yourself and humanity in general has encountered a painful shock He feels more hurt than angered, therefore bis resentment will oot soon be forgotten You will have done a foolish thing Use extreme care with the easy buyer Be is easy to sell to because he has confidence In the honor of your store and the good faith of Its employees It Is this good fnlth that makes a large volume of business possible and It has taken the mercantile world a long time to create a public confidence of this sort One fool, shortsighted clerk can do more dam age to this confidence In a day than a really wise clerk can overcome tn a week Be the friend to the eay buyer that he thinks you are then hell be your friend when you need him A US, ffeetera Newspaper Cnlon1 Children of Lepera An effort

be considered a candidate, end, though Senator Willis announced that he was willing to accept the honor, there were left but three major contenders for the nominationFrank O Lowden, Herbert Hoover and Vice President Dawes The selection of Kansas City was regarded as rather favorable to Lowden and Dawes Under the terms of the call for the convention the basis of representation will be the sameas in

conforms more nearly to the normal expectancy, as Judged from the reg ular rate of growth of the country While business is not as active as in most of 1926, it can hardly be said to be subnormal, and

less when the moou is directly over it than when it is near the horlson Similarly Bill Smith and his automobile, little Willie Smiths teddy bear and Mrs Smiths dainty pearl earrings all lose welgbt under the potent influ ence of Luna So says a bulletin from the Washington D C headquarters of the National Geographic society dealing with the moons tideraising force As a matter of fact, continues the bulletin, everything on which the moon shines directly down loses certain amount of its weight But there need be 110 fear that we will go floating moonward the downward pull of gravity, wbicb keeps objects on the earths surface Is 10000,000 times as great as the lifting power of tbe moon In other words, tbe greatest effect of tbe moon on a given object Is to steal away onetenmllllonth of Its weight In the case of large bodies, like the Leviathan, this fracton of the total weight is appreciable But even the heaviest limousine would lose only the tiniest fraction of an ouncebe tween six and seven onethousandths This would be equivalent to removing only three or four drops of gasoline from the fuel tank Tluck 8 single fiber from the fuzzy coat of Willie Smiths teddy bear and you would probably equal the moons effect In reducing Its weight And carefully wiping the imperceptible 00000000000000000000000000 Thirteenth Woman Can Find No Husband BerlinThere are 800000 superfluous women

doubt, quite outdo the lunar influence on them Moonshine and the Tides But in spite of the small effect of the moons attraction 00 everyday objects Its total result on the earth is very marked Its most notable ef fect is to create the tides of tbe oceans which, in turn, affect the worlds seaborne commerce, its fisheries, the sanitation of its harbors, snd even mans seabathing activities, in years to come this moonforce may be harnessed to create power already plans are under way for the construction of tidal power stations How does the moon decrease weight In the same way that the earth creates It The law of gravitation formulated by Newton states that every body in existence In the universe attracts every other body Any two bodies are drawn together, however, with a greater or less force, depend ing on whether they are big more accurately, have a great mass or whether they are little have a small mass and also depending on whether tbey are close together or far apart Weight In Terms of Gravity When you, an adult, say that you weigh 150 pounds, you really mean that your mass is attracted by the huge earth, when you are on Its sur lice, witb tbe same force with which it attracts 150 lead or brass or iron units, which we arbitrarily call pounds Because a baby baa mud leaa mass than you, it la drawn to ward the center of the earjh with A smaller force, and we say that H weighs 8 or 10 or 15 pounds, But the moon attracts your mass 1n exactly the same way that the eartft does It la, however, 23fU mile, awaya times as far away as the center of the earthand it has only ooeelgbtierb aa mudr mass aa the earth 80 its attraction for yon b less than that of the earth Its pull on you is tremendously leas ihan might appear at first consideration, because any gravitational pull at reduced in proportion to the square of Its distance It figures out that the moons pull at the earths surface is only one tenmillionth that of the earth When the moon exerts Its greatest lifting force on you, therefore, when It floats directly overhead It only succeeds 1 reducing your weight by an amount less than a fifth of a drop of water1 Orders Divorced Pair to Live in Same Hoot

lightly to the refrigerator at the back of the shop and, taking out a bouquet of the roses, brought them forward for the young mans inspection The lad thrust a hand into his pocket Joseph and Katie saw him put back a nickel and two pennies The rest he spilled onto the counter, because his hand trembled with cold Theres only a dollar and a half, he said How many will that buy The florist shook his head Not BO many of these, son But let me show you We have some here we call sec onds He retraced his steps and drew forth another bouquet Oh, those are finer yet cried the boy They look so, said Joseph fairly, but they will not last quite so long They bloomed too soon, for there were not enough people wanting roses yesterday, when they should have been sold I will take those, said the boy of

bears, but the tittle polar bears have not found that sou life agreed wiiti them, but this polar near found If was different and that zoo life agreed wllli Wm perfectly front the time he was a baby cub in ttie zoo until tie became qulte good size He was so pleased about it that tie thought he would sin a polar bear ong, and this was his song Im the Polar Bear ao bold Who loves th weather when its cold 1 wear a whii suit which looks like the enow And Ill tell you, too, Im a dangerous foe But oh, how I love a cake of ice Wlih tt Im really and truly nice To a bear that ban grown from a tiny bear, And this la a great event for this too, Where they have raised me since the day 1 was born Ad have carcd for me ever since that morn My mother, of course, was a great, great help She understood my every yelp But this Is the first zoo to have raised a cub And they have called me the prize bear Bub Yes, continued the Sandman, It was a very wonderful event and the too people were very proud of It They didnt want to boast of It until the bear was bis enough to really be sure of growing up Into strength and full polar bear size Some of the uniinnls were telling the visitors who they were by roaring and talking ih their different ways and though the visitors could not understand them, the animals did their best to be understood If they wunt to know Whos Who In Zoolund, said the Polar Bear, they can find out a good deal from looking at us And our keepers will tell them many things about us Now, in that outside cage pver some distance, Mr and sirs flmeu are telling their friends and ttinae whom ttiey are ageing for the first time about themselves And, said the Sandman It was true Mr and Mrs Ijneu were stalk ing about In their yard, and were grunting and snorting their little piece about tbemseJvea He Thought He Would Sing a Polar Bear Song Tills is what it was when trans luted into words 1 am Mrs Emeu, and Ill have you know That 1 keep Mr Emeu well on the go For he brings up the children and I make him work, While every duty of mine 1 shirk We have leys like long sillU, and bodies like hay, And except when its spring Im pleas ant and gayl And Mr Emeu said Every word that abe says Istrue This Is what she makes me do She never, never will let me shirk She sees that I keep at my work She makes me bring up the children well, And only allows herself a cross spell Its true, a she says, that ahes cross In the spring, Bui at other times shes pleasant nice thlnfc She doesnt mind if J call her a thing For she knows that Im willing her praises to sing, i like her and thats enough for me, Aud though shes strange, she and I agree Im willing enough to do all the work I dont really care to hlrk And if shes queer with each leg like a stilt, I am the very same way you see, built And we both have bodies that look like hay, And most of the time were happy nd gay Yes fhe tells you the truth in her song And I say the same, dingdong, ding dong So, the Sandman ended, these animals and their keepers told the people their names and their histories, and Ive put into words you could understand just what It was they said, for the keeper and those who study animals understand animal language and will translate It for people Copyright View during the unveiling of the Victory monument of Porto Ulco in San Juan All insular and federal institutions there took part

the family conclude that hr feelings cant be hurt They love her, of course But they never stop to thnk that their love ought to take tome tangible form Custom can harden as to a great many things1 That is why a loving family can see one of Its members unjustly treated day after dai and do nothing about It The mere,, fact that It is the cus torn to overtook the victims wishes In evet7thlng finally comes to be consid red an excuse for doing so Family tyranny is not often con e1ous tyranny It is just thoughtless ness But it is tyranny all the same And the vicious part of it Is that the more the victim submits to It the greater the tyranny becomes The mother or daughter who sacrifices herself for the pleasure of the others Is not only maltreating herself She Is urging the others to even greater selfishness and thoughtlessness In time they come to accept her service and sacrifice as merely their due And thus she Injures their character even while she is depriving herself of her share of pleasure There la no good reason that 1 can think of why one person should be the victim of the family group auy more than he should be a victim of a less friendly group The members of a football team or of a brokerage house do not expect one person to shoulder all the disagreeable tasks Why then, should a family expect one of Its members to give up his comfort for the ease of the

unlucky for a hunter to meet a redbaired man when he sets out upon his hunting expedition The part played by the redhaired man in the world of folklore Is one which has been the subject of much learned investigation That many ancient peoples sacrificed redhaired men to their gods Is a wellknown fact It was formerly the theory of an thropologists1 tiiat this was because to those peoples redhaired men were strangers, they themselves being dark haired, and in those days strangers and enemies were synonymous But Sir James Fraaer, who is the great et living authority on such matters, is of the opinion that among the ancients the redhaired man represented the cornspirit, the color of his hair corresponding to that of the ripened grain, and points out how In Egypt redhaired men were annually sacrificed at the shrine of Osiris and the body being burned, the ashes were scattered over the fields to lnure a satlsfuctory crop The Idea was that of the dying godthe death of grain Us sowing as seed and its resurrec tlon in the form of a new crop Sir James has written at considerable length upon the relation between the redhaired man In antiquity and the grainspirit and cast doubts upon the stranger theory of the sacrifice of the redhaired He relies mostly up on Egyptian mythology and ritual But perhaps Sir James and those anthropologists who differ with him are both right, partially What was true in Egypt may not have been true in those European regions from which we most directly inherit our folklore traditions In the tatter the stranger theory pertiaps prevailed It as Maspero says, a study of modem superstitions will enable us to correct the t past by the present thissuperstition of the hunters, that It is unlucky to meet a red haired man, would appear to prove tiie stranger theory with regard to our European ancestors A redhaired man was a stranger a stranger was an enemy To meet an enemy when starting on a hunting ex pedition boded III lucit, for his

EGG PBODUCTION era metbFall and winter months may ba, termed the profit months In poultry culture for the reason that the big difference In production between bfeavy laying flocks and flocks which are not profitable cornea during that season of the year Almost any healthy ben will lay well toward spring tt Is an established fact that a flock must average approximately 100 egaja per hen per year in order U return the owner a profit The between the monthly flock good flocks and poor mainly during the fa months In other won of profitable flocks have utl ods which Increase production at a time of year when fresh eggs are scarce and therefore higher in price Early batches of early maturing birds could be set down as one of the most important points In getting heavier fall and winter production Pol lets that start laying during the tat ter part of October are from batches that came before May L, usually before April 1 They are birds that have been well fed and are fully de veloped Good birds of this character will produce greatly over 100 eggs per year If they are properly fed and housed Proper feeding and housing are the second factors that must receive attention In order to get a good yield of fall and winter eggs Hens will lay in the spring on a straight grain ration At that time they are an swering natures demands and will layIf conditions are at all suitable However, after the normal laying season Is over, it is correspondingly hard to secure heavy production This can only be done by using a ration that supplies plenty of animal protein, minerals, and succulent feed In addition to grain, which is needed as the bads of all rations Houses must be warm, well ventilated and comfortable In other words, the hen must be fed and managed so that phe will feel like keeping right on with her egg production Parasites and diseases are the third source of trouble Nothing will upset a good laying flock quicker than a lot of troublesome mites that make the birds want to leave their regular houses and roost in the trees Preparing for Winter Around Poultry House A thorough cleaning of the poultry house should take place at this time of year In preparation for winter The cleanup should consist of remov ing nests, roosts, hoppers, drinking stands and all other equipment from the house Each should get a thorough scrubbing with water and some good disinfectant The house Itself should be swipt, ceilings, walls and floor The floor should be well scraped clean of all hard, dried litter and droppings Dirt floors should have at least sis Inches of the old dirt taken off and replaced with six Inches of clean dirt The final cleanup step should be a thorough spraying of the Inside of the house with some good disinfectant Whitewash helps to brighten a dark house and a freshly whitewashed house has a tendency to encourage Its owner to keep It looking clean for some time to come A young guinea Is like a young grouse or quail and will hide when scared They do not make any noise at all when they hide from a supposed enemy and are very hard to find ri VJ Some poultrymen place a large , of coal or tood ashes in each secttaavVfof their laying house The henedtop in the

thereby fe ducing the cost of feed They also found tt paid to feed mineral While the hen Isnt exactly a gracing animal, she does tuck a lot of grass under her belt during a sum mer day And when she cant get it she must have sprouted oats, cabbage, mangels, or each If shes going to gladden you with eggs If we expect winter egga we must produce our pullets from hens that are bred to lay during the

pounds of ear corn dally so as to prevent them going off too greatly In flesh before spring It was reckoned that with alfalfa hay at 16 a ton and shredded corn fodder at a ton, the dally rations LJ the early winter did not cost more than about 9 cents a day per head They ate about 8 pounds of alfalfa and probably about 6 pounds of corn fodder as a dally average Then when the shelled corn was added to Improve their condition the ration cost all the way from 18 to 20 cents per head daily From the middle of December until February 10 or so, the horses lost about a pound or more daily on this cheap ration Edmonds and Crawford, at the Illinois experiment station, have had fexd results in feeding growing draft fillies by using in the ffrst winter sheaf oats and alfalfa hay with half an ordinary ration of oats and bran The roughage was fed in proportion of one part sheaf oats to two parts alfalfa Three pounds ooats to one pound of bran was the grain ration Profitable Hog Needs Good, Suitable Ration The profitable hog ts the one that eats the most It takes about oneeighth of a full ration by this la meant giving the hog all It will eat tr maintain the hogs body Then if you fed only enough to maintain the hogs body, you could feed a 100pound hog a whole year nrW It would still weigh 100 pound and you would be out your feed for nothing To illustrate this, suppose that on account of feed being hljrli you feed only two pounds of feed per day A full ration Is four per cent of the live weight The average weight from 100 to 200 pounds Is 1 HO pounds Four per cent o 150 Is six poundsoneelghtb of six Is threequarters pound the amount required for maintaining the hog Then, if you feed only two pounds per day you only have 1 pounds to make gain If you are feeding a balanced ration every three pounds of feed above that required or maintenance will make a pound of gain Divide the 1 pounds by three and you see that you can get only fivetwelfths pounds of gain per day when feeding two pounds of feed per day Then 240 days will be required to make the hog gain 100 pounds Too are feeding two pounds per daytwo tlmeR 40 equnls 480 pounds Hence, It took 480 pounds of

spread himself all over the front pagss again last week Having been invited to visit Mexico by President Calles, lindy tuned up the Spirit of St Louis and almost without warning hopped off from Boiling field, Washington, a little after noon on Tuesday Twentyseven hours and ten minutes later he landed gracefully at Valbuena aviation field, Mexico City, completing the first nonstop flight between the two capitals The distance Is a little ver 2,000 miles Lindbergh had esti mated that the jaunt would take 26 hours, but after passing Tamplco he was forced to fly high above clouds, lost his bearings and went considerably too far to the west, passing over Salamanca, Morella and Toluca He aid the trip was the most enjoyable and least adventurous he ever had Hailed as an unofficial ambassador of good will, Lindbergh was welcomed by an Immense throng of wildly enthusiastic Mexicans In the grand stand were President Calles, Ambassador Morrow and his staff, diplomatic representatives of niuny other nations and a crowd of other dignlUiries The delay In his arrival had worried them considerably, and President Calles In greeting him told of this anxiety Calles sent congratulatory telegrams to President Coolide and Llndys mother, and Issued a formal statement, in which he said The United Slates In sending to Mexico the highest representative of Us manhood, will power and heroism has created closer spiritual and material relations I congratulate Colonel Lindbergh and the American people which Is fully Justiflvd In being proud of having such a man While Colonel Lindbergh was In the air on his way to Mexico, President Coolldge signed the bill awarding him the Congressional Medal of Honor The measure originated in the house when the aviator visited that body, and In Its passage the usual formal Itles were Ignored The senate, of course, put the bill through unhesitatingly T JREE hundred ranvors of cities In thirty states hold a threeday airport

twentyfive cruLers, five aircraft esrrtsfs, thirtytwo submarines and flvs destroyers, the estimated cost to be 1725,000,000 This Is understood hf fty 4dAMmla to be the first flvejvar lacrenseat of s proposed twentyfear naval building and replacement program which contemplates the eventual expenditure of between two and three billion dollars With the exception of battleships, this program would place the United States almost on a purity with Great Britain Secretary Wilbur hopes to have work on the program started at once His plan is to have five cruisers, one aircraft carrier, and a cumber of submarines and destroyers begun each year Ail would be started In five years and the last ship would be com pleted in nine The bill does not specify any definite period carried to safety Then the

out to keep them from the cap itoi They held a secret meeting and voted articles of impeachment against the governor, the chief justice of the state Supreme court, Fred P Branson, and Harry B Cordell, president of the state board of agriculture The charges Included Incompetence, diversion of state funds, extortion and other misbehavior The governor then permitted the sennte to meet in its chamber

also were on guard The loyal Kuomlntang troops counter attacked while their war vessels shelled the bund, and after a bloody battle they regained possession of the city About 4,000 were killed la the fight, and there were wholesale executions of captured Reds The Nationalist government, of which Gen Chiang Kaishek is again the leader, already had severed relations with Soviet Russia and after the Canton uprising it ordered all Russian consulates In south China to be dosed Quo Taichi, commissioner of foreign affairs, said China was fed up with communism and com munlstlc intrigue and that the

each other, he called on France to aid him In forming a vast Latin bloc, including Spain, Portugal and the South and Central American republics This would give the Latin leaders a world hegemony that would smash the prosrge of the United States and transfer the direction of LatinAmerican affairs to the Mediterranean While professing deep friendship for France, the Fascist chieftain rebuffed England and Russia, explaining that the Italians would never understand these peoples as they understand fel low Latins Advices from Rome say Mussolini considers that the only posible solution of the present FrancoItalian situation is a regular treaty of amity, arbitration and nonaggresslon H ENRY L STIMSON, former secretary of war, has Ireen appointed hy President Coolldge to succeed the late

Years apart from his wife He had enjoyed what he called the time of his life, but it had always ended up in an hilarious outburst In each case now for six years Lau rel had brought him through and had forgiven him Yet each succeeding year it had been the same thing over again Now another year had rolled around and the hoys at the office were Joking about New Year resolutions, wild parties, etc As Tom got to thinking about It, he suddenly realized that he hi id not played fair with his wife when it came to holiday celebrations Filled with remorse, he began to plan a Happy New Year1 for the little worn an this year The boys joked him for being so quiet and thoughtful but he paid no attention to them, for tie was deep In thought What could he do to pay up for his gross neglect All these years she had been so true and unselfish while he hod Indulged In utter senseless dissipation I have U, he suddenly shouted, without realizing the whole office force was looking in his direction Come acrosswhat it is, a new Joke exclaimed Jim, the bHl clerk Oh no, far from it said Tom I have only Just made a New Years resolution Whereupon they all laughed heartily and Joe, the sweeper, who was passing by, chuckled Inwardly as he thought of the big party which was on that night The day, very tjggestive of the p i r I t, COtd and rvhile fcfcfii hmg about In profusion and th 6now, heavily packed, sparkled In the sunlight Tom begged to be excused an hftut earlier and Jofeusty bounded ff on his New ffjI escapade Jnrted across the street d two theater tickets, tfct Crystal restaurant, where B table Next he rushed WThe florists shop to which he had been a stranger for many years and ordered a corsage bouquet of mixed rweet peas, her favorite flower Then be found himself entering an exclu sive womens apparel shop, just around the corner He felt sort of wobbly In here and was just about ready to flee when a pleasant, elderly lady addressed him What can I do for yon, sir1 Then he explained to her that he would tike to have a complete outfit for his wife for a New Years party The efficient saleslady understood perfectly, and ushered him about picking, out the finery He remembered hearing his wife speak of the new color called Tyson bluethat blue had been the color of her wedding gownso he decided to have everything of that delightful shade which Jn knew would please hes, vJTiimlly, loaded down with bundles, h truly was a New Tears Santa Ottos, orfelt like one anyway, for bis heart was tiled with joy Twas surely more blessed to give than to re cehe, thought Torn, as he trudged along toward home Now the nest move on the checkerboard, he thought, is to get these tilings into the house without her knowing it How could he do it Then the thought struck him He could get his sister, who lived around the corner, to call Laurel over by phoue So, stopping at the first avail able telephone booth, he did so Then when the coast was clear he slipped into the house and was up to her room where he spread out the adorabfe out fit upon her snowy bed The blue against the white spread did look beautiful, even to a mans eyes Why had he never thought of anything like this before Why, it was more fun than all the parties he had ever attended You see, the true holiday spirit had hit Tom, and hit him very, very hard Suddenly he heard her call Oh Torn, is that you Supper is ready and your favorite apple dumplings Yes, dear, 1 am coming, he hurriedly replied, as he rushed down two steps at a tin But as they sat eating, lie noticed that she was not very hungry and wore a sad, tired expression She, no doubt, was thinking of the usual New Years escapade Tom chuckled within as he thought of his glorious sur prise He was wondering how to proceed After praising the delicious apple dumplings, for which he only received a fnlnt sickly smile she was not interested In such things just now, he arose from the table and began to dress for the evening When nil ready, he kissed ber goodby, and said he was going to the club He hated to do It for it nearly broke his heart to see her lips tremble as If about to utter a protest But she cared too much for his happiness to Interfere, so she only said I hope you have a good time, Tom He quickly turned away and left her Btandlng there, heartsick and weary Other years he had not been able to comprehend now when It dawned upon him, he felt like a brute and vowed a secret resolution with his heart alone never to leave her again Then he rushed around the corner to his sister and disclosed the whole beautiful secret She was delighted and gave him a big brotherly hug and kiss Then she said Why, Tom, that Is the best thing you ever did in your life Yes, I know it, Dot, and I am ashamed of myselfbut never again Then he made a dash for home and the surprise His wife had thrown herself upon the overstuffed davenport In despair, to await the awful midnight scene She arose quickly, as she heard his step in the hallway He must have forgotten something, poor dear, or he wouldnt be back so early, thought she The next moment he rushed in with a loud cry of Happy New Year, Laurel She could hardly believe her own ears as she gazed at him stupidly Why, whats the trouble, Tom Nothing, my dear, I only came to get you to spend New Years Eve with me, for a change How lovely, Tom, but you forgot that I have no party outfit Never mind about that, Just dress as quickly as you can, while I glance through the paper, She turned from hlra, the tears streaming down her face, as she thought of her only available gown, an ugly gray cashmere She could tear It Into shreds, she hated It so On the way upstairs she secretly wished that some disaster had come upon It, so that she would not be obliged to wear IL What s revelation, as she opened the door to her room and beheld the sssyso They Came Home on New Yearns Eve By Jane Roth xxiix a rrV30 bad the children cant I come home, said Mr Burt Theres an auto at the gate now,

after all, what a happy New Year c 1927 Western Newspaper Union fairy outfit spread out upon her bed The beaded dress of Tyson blue sparkled under the electric light and the dainty satin slippers with the spiderweb silk stockings were a perfect mutch Then the bonnet of blue silk chiffon trimmed with tiny forgetmenots capped the climax She snatched It up and placed It up on her head, forgetting everything else for the mo ment Tls strange what effect sud den happiness has upon us mortals It goes to show that all Is mental after all She was a new being as she fran tically called Tom In her bewilder ment He came bounding up the stairs, his eyes sparkling and his face wreathed in a smile Hurry up and put it on and lets see how you look We are going to the theater and then to the Crystal restaurant where we shall dine and dance You are to be the Cinderella of the evening and I the happy Prince Wont that be glorious, dear As the situation began to drawn upon her consciousness, she opened her hazel eyes and her pretty rosebud mouth both at once but the words would not comethey simply refused, so she began to tear off the old cloth ing and get Into the new She had Just finished when they were startled by the loud ringing of the door bell Laurel rushed down to answer it, with Tom close at her heels grinning from ear to ear, for he knew very well what It was Why Tom, how did you ever think of all this she asked For there were the sweet peas fresh from the florist Now I truly do feel like a real Cinderella, as she lovingly pressed the flowers against her soft cheek But Tom, I am afraid It is only a dream, and that I shall awake and find myself in the ash heap of despair, waiting for your return With a shudder she buried her head upon his shoulder It was far from a dream, for the next moment the shrill horn of a taxi was calling then from without Thus, arm in arm, they set forth for their New Years celebration together 1927 Wutiri NwtppT CnJoe Happy New Year By ELMO SCOTT WATSON OTH1NC1 so good for the inside of a man as the outside of a horseso say eth the doctor So runs an old saying author unknown and apparently there are a great many Americans who believe it Of course, there arent as many of us who answer to the call of boots and middles as there were in the old days when westward the course of empire takes its way For this is the motor age, and loday yotj hear more often the drone of airplane engine or the pop of automobile ex haust than you do the creak of saddle leather and the clopclop of horses hoofs Put for all of that, this form of travel still retains a wide popular ity and there are even those who point to a decided Increase in horse back riding for pleasure, If not for business, within recent years For despite the fact that modern America in the main goes about Its business now on pneumatic tires, theres still enough ridiif, ridin to keep the saddle manufacturers in bus iness for several years yet Perhaps one indication of a rather widespread interest in equestrianism is the amount of newspaper space that has been given within recent months to certain longdistance riding feats which have been under way A recent news picture which was widely published was that of Frank Heath of Silver Springs Md, standing with his horse at Milepost One In Washington, the point for the measurement of distances from the capital over all the highways of the United States Mr Heath, who is a war veteran, had been ridin, rid in to recover his health and In the course of a Journey of some two years and a half on his elevenyear old horse he had covered 11 ,iS7 miles and visited every state in the Union Last year press dispatches carried the news that Bert J McCloud of Fcrrt Morgan, Colo, was about to set out on a 36,XK mile trip on his eight yearold Arabian horse, Chief Sitting Bull lie was to attempt flu teat of riding from Denver to New York and then crisscross the United States am Canada several limes He, too, ex peeted to visit every slate in the Union, and at the start of hi trip he estimated that he would coei the C,, IKK miles In 1,210 days So far as Is known he is still ridin1, ridin lor a the end of hi trip Is a prize of Si,XX if he makes it successfully an1 complies with all the requirements, one being that he must call on all gov ernors at the state capitals and nlsn upon the President at Washington McCloud, who is fifty years old and a former cowboy and Arizona Range, finished a 26,000mile trip at Phoenix Ariz, two years ago During this trip lie crossed a strip of desert in the great Southwest In which sealed In struments recorded a heat of ISO de grpes and It took him 72 hours to make 72 miles Up from the South another horse CXA8X Ridin that likes the There la some city Grass thats curried

that have H familiar sound If it Joes its because its a sort of refrain in a poem by Badger Clark which ha become a classic out in the windwept Wst where nil n know what ridin Is and know whether a man knows what hes talking about whether its in verse or piosewhen hes talking about ridin Kvidently they Ivlo ve that Badger Clark knows, for hi Uidin probably the host known ami most f 1 en ioted single poem in ihe whole Wci, Last year when ilic people of KIIIMIS staged a big pageant in celebrating the famous Medicint Lodge Indian treaty and other events in the growth of their country, the printed programs for the pageant included several verses from Uidin in tlie Introduction to the episode depicting the day of the cowboy And that only one of Innumerable Instances of its popularity Youll come across It repeatedly In newspapers, youll hear it recited at gatherings of all kinds In tlie West, and when an oldlimer seta him down to write his reminiscences, the chances are that wmowhere In the book hell quote Ridin, or some other Badger Clark poems Ridin, Itself, has had nn Interesting history, as have some of the otherof Clarks poems After H varied career, including an experience as a plantation manager In Cuba where tropical fever all but wrecked hii health, Clark went down In the cow country of Arizona to recuperate In a letter to his mother he found prose too weak to express bis content with the wonderful desert country in which he found himself and he trhd to express it in verpe The result was Kidin His mother, with natural pride, sent the verse to a magazine, the old Pacific Monthly, and It was immediately accepted and published Thus Badger Clnrk started as the poet lariat of the West and gave to the West Its bestloved verses Easterners who discovered the West last summer for the first time, when President Coolldges decision to establish the summer White House in the Black hills of South Dakota brought to that section a horde Of tourists, also discovered this poet lariat and ac claimed film But for all of their praise of him the only authoritative word IP that uttered by an old cowman, when he said, after reading a book of

historian of the American frontier set about his task by listing and describing the instruments of civilization He named the ax, the, rifle, the boat and the horse, and then, having put these SEtrnments In thehands of a restless race of men, he started the protag1 onlsts of his tale on their epic of wildernessJbreaklng That historian was Emerjagi Hongh, and the book was The wfy to the West, published by the BobbVMerrill company of Indian apolis A quarter of a century has passed and another historian of the frontier has added one more to the Instruments of civilization, which it later race of restless men used in winning the West, after their fathers had found the wayto it This was the sixshooter and it seems particularly appropriate that BobbsMerrill are also the publishers of Hands Up Stories of the SixOun Fighters of the Old Wild West, as told by Fred E Sutton and written down by A B MacDonald As the title indicates, this book deals with the final phase of the frontier era, the days when civilization, as exemplified by thp Westwardpushing white man, had definitely dispossessed the red man established a home of sorts iu tho recentlyconquered wilderness and set about putting its OWD house In order Insofar as some members of thai household found It difficult to break away from certaiu lawless hublts ac le what Theodore Hoose Characterized as the rough icrlfig1 a continent was task of lawbringing jjkJmitive fashion Su Vflere dispensed with tes Ignored and the dealing out of Justice was, in the light of presentday procedure, appal llngly simple and direct For in mosi cases Old Judge Colt was the final arbiter, and from his decisions there was rarely an appeal Mention the word gunman and one naturally thinks of the gangsters in our big cities of today But at Emerson Hough long ago pointed out In his The Story of the Outlaw It is exceedingly unfair to the gunman of the Old West to compare the r of today with him The one sassln, the other was a warge is a dastard, the other I of a maf, said Bough it the nature of i somNjgprpiipimltted by the modeiwRi4MKunan would cause a nOTeJptfesperado of the West to blushifr shame And In 4 that opinion Fred Sutton, who knew some of those oldtime desperadoes Intimately, seems to concur In his chapter on The Border Code Is an illuminating exposition of the unwritten law of the Old West, which gave to every man a chance One nstaoce is typical In s freighters camp at WagonBed flprlngi two men quarreled, and after Uiey were separated and all of at tkouffbt the fuss was over, one of them, Ariiona Jack, shot

behind, as he explains it But for all that be saved Billy from beiny shot in the back, the author of UancJs Up has no illusions about thnr young outlaw If ever a man di served killing, it was Billy the Kid he says, He was a human tiyer, the most pitileps killer of that period In his short life of twentyone years he killed twentyone men, and the most of those killings were murdersclone In cold blood Thus this oldtimer shows a refresn ing lack of muudlln sentimentality for those killers which colors the writings of others who have cliron icled their dark deeds, the same type of misplaced sympathy which saves the necks of so many murderers today He knew many of themJess lames, Cherokee Bill, Bill Dooliji Crescent Sam, Belle Starr, the Dulton boys, the Jennings gung, Henry Starr Blackedfaced Charley and ArkansasTomand, knowing them and the en vironraent which shaped their destinies, he can account for what they were and what they did But he doe not glorify their crimes He raav have admired thera for what good qualities they did possess, bu he ad mireg more the type of gunman who drew his eixshooter in the cause of law and order Nearly all those peace officers of the old frontier were likable men, but there was nothing maudlin or Irresolute about them They knew that death was the only penalty that would curb those wild men of the border, and when it was necessary to inflict it they did not hesitate, says Sutton Such were Wild Bill Hickok, whom he character laes as unquestionably the fastest and surest man with a sixshooter that the West ever knew, Bat Mas terson, Pat Garrett and Billy Tilgh man It was men of this type who used the sixshooter as au Instrument of civilization Fill your band was the remark that Wild Bill made when he got the drop on a bad man from Texas who had come up the trail to Hays City Kan, where Bill was marshal, with the announced Intention of spilling the Hickok blood For the border code extended to these exponents ot taw and order when they set about arresting a desperado and made them give the other fellow a chance, even when ft was exceedingly dangerous to do so One of the reasons they were willing to do so was explained to President Roosevelt on one of his Nh Its to Oklahoma City by the veteran Billy Tilghman, as follows Theres one thing that always counts in a right of that kind between a peacv officer and u bad mun, equally skillful on the drawthe man who knows he Is right always has a shade on the man who knows he is wrong But that was not ait, according to Sutton, who explains Just how these peace officers handled their six guns, and in doing so he does a lot of muchneeded debunking of the Wild West, as it Is presented by the mo vies Sutton got his information firsthand, for he once saw Wild Bill demonstrate the secret of his light nlngllke draw and various other mat ters of Colt technique were explained to him hy such masters as Bat Mas terson, Billy Tilghman, Al Jennings and others He learned about this when, ns a boy, he first arrived In Dodge City Kan, In the old clays when there was no Sunday west of Kansas City and no God, west ot Fort Smith, and was taken unde the wing of such frontier notables as Masterson Luke Short, Wyatt Earp Chalk Beeson and Robert M Wright and he added to his knowledge In thai turbulent period when Isaac C Parker was the hanging Judge at Fort Smith, Ark, and the outlaw gangs such as the Daltons, the Doollns and othaM were making their last stand in wWt is now the state of Oklahoma The sum total of Suttons observations, as set down In the pages of his book, Is a paraphrase of the old saying that they who take the swort shall perish by the sword For, as be puts it, The sixshooter ended the lives of ninetenths of all the outlaws of the Wild West And It was al most equally true of those other who took up the sixshooter In de fense of the law Of the four most famou peace officers whom Sutton knew, three went down before a smoking sixshooter Wild Bill V brief career as prince of pistoleers ended abruptly In 1876, when he wap shot down from behind in Deadwood, S D Nearly a quar ter of a century after Pat Garrett bad killed Billy the Kid he himself was shot and killed After 6ftyone yeats as a peace officer Billy Tilghman went out as he had hoped to do In smoke and with his boots on He was shot In an Oklahoma oil boom town In 1024 by a man whom he had arrested and was taking to the pollen station Only Bat Masterson, who left the Wild West years ago to be come a New York newspaper man died peacefully with bis boots off About Human Slot Machine A LOT of retail clerks consider that theyve done thetr full duty when they hand a customer the article be has asked for, and have put bis money in the cash register There are thousands of slot machines all over the land which are doing that much, and doing it better, because they make their deliveries Instantly and add practically nothing to the selling costs The clerk who works on this system has no right whatever to call himself a salesman, which is something he will never be until he changes his course A retail customer does not like to be Importuned to buy something he doesnt want, but he doesnt resent having his attention called to an article which may be interesting, even though he may not have mentioned it himself I knew a drug clerk once vho sold a tremendous volume of a certain brand of expensive safety razors merely by calling attention to, their cleverness and relating In a neighborly way his own experience with one of them His manner would lead you to believe that he sought only to entertain the customer with the description of a new device, but lie aroused an Interest that meant a sale in nearly every case, although tie never even suggested such a

Baths for Nome A new way of treating colds by applying electric heat to the inflamed interior of the nose was recently ad vocated by Dr H Bordier ot Lyons, France, reports Popular Science Monthly,

look at him is calculated to give one the shivers A sailor Is nat urally Inclined to be superstitious, as are most men who wrest a living by combat with the tremendous forces of nature Lonely midnight seas, surg lug under the blows of howling tempest, weird maritime phenomena the thin division between life and death, the Insignificance ot ship and crew in the vast expanse of sea and sky all help to promote a supersti tlous turn of mind So, when, day after day, a wicked fishfiend of a shark with its evil eye follows a ship sailors can hardly be blamed for see ing In that sinister following an omen of death Death is naturally asso elated with a shark anyway If a sailor should fall overboard he know that the shark would get him Of course what the shark really fol iows the ship for is the pleasure of feeding on the garbage the cook throws overboardor if be is lucky a sailor knocked overboard by a slat ting sail But no sneb prosaic expla nation as that will satisfy a sailor No the shark scents s death on board It Is true that thousands of ships have sailed thousands of miles and many deaths have occurred on board of them and no shark has followed them Yet sometime, naturally, when a shark follows a ship a death does occur among the crew And It takes very little to keep a superstition alive Truth crushed to earth will rise again but Its resilience Is nothing compared to that of

poultry specialist at the Kansus State Agricultural college Hens or pullets that have been in Jong production do not give a high hatchabil ity as bird that are increasing in production The most desirable pullet breeders are those that have been hatched early and that have taken a rest period for a neck molt Alternating the male birds In breeding pens is often very conducive to better fertility The poultry specialist advises from 15 to 20 females to one male in the light breeds and eight to ten females in the heavier breed During cold weather it is best to gather eggs frequently Temperature variations that occur in a heated room where the eggs may be kept are very injurious and in many cases the only reasoo for a poor hatch A constant temperature of approximate ly 40 degrees Fahrenheit should be maintained Klein says it Is not necenary to turn eggs while they are being held for hatching if they are placed in an egg case with the small end down Hatchabillty decreases rapidly after the eggs have been kept ten days Washing is injurious because it removes the bloom and causes a rapid evaporation during incubation It wili pay to candle the eggs before setting Breeding up a flock is not a difficult matter, maintain Mr Klein A small breeding pen of the choicest bens should be kept each year to supply cockerels for the general flock These hens should be the best producers in the flock and those conforming most closely to standard typeand color SPIRIN The whole world knows Aspirin as an effective antidote for pain Bui ifs just as important to know that there

dubbed the most average town in the United States througti the residence here of Roy L Gray, the most average man dis putes the title where its penltentlHry Is concerned, and all because of the Innovation In radio emertalnmeni which the prisoners enjoy Warden T P Hollowell, veteran ot the World war, believes that there may be something after all In this lenlencytoprlsoners idea, and consejueury has alfowed the Installation of a radio receiving set for the prisoners of the institution and has decided that It worked so we that be has now Installed radio sets at all the prison farms in the vicinity of Fort Madison to keep the prisoners from walking away, as many of them do from loneliness after the fays work Is done Keep Them Entertained The radio keeps them entertained and keep their thoughts from dwell iug on the joys that apparently He over the hill, Hollowell explained With an honor and parole system In vogue there Is only oue way In the world to keep prisoners from taking French leave and that Is to keep them contented Two inmates of the institution were responsible for the Installment of the set originally They were Andrew Bowers and Arthur Reed, shorttime inmates, who conceived the idea of building a single circuit for all the prisoners In the institution Hollowell said the idea was O K If the noise did not Interfere with the prison rules about silence After some experimenting the two established a circuit through one cell house into which all the men who cared to buy earphones could listen nightly One of the big problems was to make the circuit foolproof, for the men would stick matches, pins and other articles into the holes in the pings and shortcircuit the whole affair This trouble was remedied and the nlgt the first concert was received the Innvites could scarcely keep from shouting their hilarity Old men who had bepi in the prison for years and knew only of ratlio through newspapers listened with tears In their eyea and spoke In awed whisjers of Its wonders Concerts, grand opera, prizefights, baseball games and all the rest of radio entertainment came to cheer the drabness of their lives, and men who formerly passed their evenings sleeping, leading, writing letters or working interminably on souvenirs to sell to visitors at the prison, now sit in alienee with their bead phones clamped to their ears Silence Rule Enforced The silence rule is strictly followed, although the prison guards have to puce the corridors demanding silence repeatedly when a prizefight is on the air and the excitement throughout the big cell houses among the hundreds of listeners Is at a fever heat Warden Hollowell has been well re paid for his permission to allow radio, for In it he has found one of the best methods of enforcing obedience since be has been in office, for the threat of taking away his headphones conquers the most unmanageable of prisoners Only one man has lost bis phones and then tor only a short time Be insisted on trying to make a loud speaker out of them As an explana tion be said he had read somewhere of a man who had gotten coma on his ears from using headphones too much and he was merely trying to protect himself Whole Corn Superior to Cracked for Winter Many poultrymen are becoming very much interested in the use of whole COIL rather than cracked corn for win ter feeding There seems to be con siderable evidence that the loss of corn hearts aod corn oil through cracking and holding is a real factor in feeding Pullets do not readily take to whole cornunless they be J come accustomed to

great banquet, attended by the emperor and empress, was beld after which General Grant and bis wife planted two trees, an blnokl and a flowering giokuran At that time the ceremonial planting of trees waa some thing reserved solely for the emperor, and the breaking of all the precedents to permit an alien commonereven though he had been President of the United Statestremendously impressed the Japanese people The two trees, Inclosed within a simple fence and marked with a wooden board, are thriving well, the hiooki planted by the general having now a height of 30 feet and a girth of 3 feet,

It Invalid in five decisions President Oalles did not wait for the five deeUtens before yielding to the contentions of the American State depart psent Although news dispatches from Mexico City attribute the action of Oalles to the friendlier relations established by Morrow and Lindbergh, there is ample ground for the belief that the Mexican President was forced to take the step by the virtual state of bankruptcy of the Mexican governstent That the American government also Is la a conciliatory mood was evi denced by its intention to relax the embargo on export of war munitions aad military equipment to Mexico The first instance of this relaxation was the permission given by the State department for the purchase by the Mexican government of the Ford airplane in which Mrs

placing educa tional orders with private concerns is stressed by Secretary of War Davis In letters received by the chairman of the senate snd house committees on mili tary affairs The war secretary points out that failure of this government to place munitions orders with private con cerns since the war has resulted In the disappearance of the munitions Industry with the single exception of certain kinds of ammunition He asks that the department be allowed to give annual orders to private concerns not only for ammunition, but for pilot models of the newly developed artillery and infantry weapons recent ly demonstrated at the army proving ground at Aberdeen N OTWITHSTANDING Secretary Davis complaint, President Coolidge believes the American army and navy are In better shape now than they ever before have been in peace time He told the White House cor respondents that the budget policy toward appropriations for the armed services were liberal and in keeping with the nations needs In this con nection he pointed out that budget pstimates for the next fiscal year carry approximately 100,000,000 more for national defense purposes than was carried In the budgets of two or three years ago Congress also has been generous with appropriations, the Pres ident believes In view of the Presidents expressed attitude, there is ap parently little hope that he will ask for the appointment of a board to study the munitions situation C ALD70RNIANS exhibited unexpected restraint when William Edward Hickman was taken from Oregon back to Los Angeles to be tried for one of the

The law officers were fearful that attempts would be made to lynch himsnd per haps there would have been found few to blame the men of Los Angeles bad they given Hickman such summary Justice, However,

It rose the price decreased Current sales hover around 3 for a pound, and producers say It costs 250 a pound to grow it This years crop Is a subject of controversy Buyers declare supplies are plentiful but growers Insist production Is in adequate Whatever even tenor there may be is due to longterm contracts, by which farsighted growers accepting a sliding scale, insured themselves of better prices than the open market brings Observers predict increasing demand for oil In respective order of importance It Is used In dentifrices confections and chewing gum, and in the retail drug trade Makers of den tal cream declare the world is JUST beginning to brush its teeth, and candy manufacturers report steadily increasing sales Generally the mint supply is less than the demand There are natural restrictions on production Growers become discouraged when weeds over run their crop and contaminate the oil so much that it suffers discounts on the markets Distilling Is a prob lem Most growers have their own equipment, although custom stills are operated Private stills do not pay on less than 20 acres of good mint How ever, rafnt production frequently is considered a subsidiary industry, and as one producer drops out another fills his place While not always as profitable as truck crops adapted to similar land, mint is perhaps more certain The enormous price reduction has not

One Portsmouth woman tells the following story When I visited Portchester castle one day, rain compelled me to seek shelter Inside Reuchlng the second floor I passed Into the south chamber a gloomy

in the Philippines It accurately describes u Euutrioiuaiai situation which seems curiously prevalent in these tropic isles Of course the wives In question are not acttailly dumb But to aii Intents and purposes they might as well be They are dumb by force of circum stances, as it were For their husband cant speak their language, nor can they speak the tongue of their lords and masters Throughout the Far East It Is common for white foreigners to marry women of the country in which they settle Nowhere save in the Philip pines, however, does a practically complete Jack of verbal contact seem at all prevalent Perhaps it is the enervating climate, which is not con ducive to the mental exertion required In learning a new language In any case, examples of this strange mating are not hard to find Children Speak Three Languages In one case the wife is a pure blooded Filipino woman who speaks both Spanish and the Tagalog dialect, but no English The husband speaks Eng lish only They have two children, who do quite well in ail three languages and now serve as family in terpreters Another odd case was found In the union of a Japanese woman and an American Neither speaks the others language, though in Japan such unions ordinarily result in each picking up a smattering of the others speech at once The situation seemed so ex traordinary thut an interpreter was obtained In order to query the wife in detail Said she You see, my husband works at night and be stays home and sleeps in the daytime I work during the day and sleep at night We hardly see each other and dont find it at all inconvenient not to be able to talk When we want to converse we can always find somebody handy to interpret It Has Its Advantages Observers of these speechless matLngs point out that they have certain striking advantages over the ordi nary sort There Is no chance for a quarrel, because neither can start It Intellectual friction Isnt likely to develop where there Is no exchange of views Neither can be bored with the others conversation Ill feeling is avoided by the absence of temptation to have the last word, for where there isnt any first word there cant very well be a last one On the other

Where each would do his proper part, And do It with a willing heart, And not expect Just one or two To wnlt on them, like some folk do How happy any house would grow If those within would make It so

muscles and tissues did not happen to fall together And If they had by chance come together it would not account for the brain, the intelligence and the power of reason which characterise the hu man being above the lower forms of life The book of Genesis tells us that man was made in the image and likeness of the Creator Elsewhere In the Scriptures we are told that God is Spirit The associating of the two statements would result In the statement that the creation of God was spiritual and not material Whatever his origin, man Is the apex, the pinnacle of all existing things History is made up only of what he has done Science is made up wholly of what he has discovered Ail law is the summarization of what he has determined as the right basis of conduct All revelation consists of what be believes he shall be Nor does it matter so much If at all, from whence we came You do not ask whether the keystone of the arch was quarried in the valley or on the mountain, Ton only ask if It be worthy to bear the burden pot upon It That is the most important question regarding man Has he and Is he proving himself worth of that power of dominion wnlch If a does not believe was divinely

men bad learned to sail the ocean, the great Western continent could hardly have escaped notice for any great length of time The Columbus situation was admle ably expressed by a Briton touring North

charted Look at a modern map and you will find that the region around the poles which are left white, or dimly defined are very small But discoverers will be at work for all time, and we shall never be able to set a limit on their achievements In the department of humun affliction, their work Is only a little more than a century old, as far as scientific knowledge is concerned, and not until every tiny animated creature which preya o the twroaaorbrute system Is discovered and circumvented, will the work be complete It is within the memory of most men living that a way to use elec tricity for the aid of men was discovered, although Franklin learned that the lightnings were composed of It, and found a way to bring some of it to earth from the clouds and Im prison It The day will

for coal We have learned to fly, but not yet to fly around the world in a continuous flight That will comeperhaps sooner than we think Some Columbus may now be on the track of the way to accomplish it The last discoverer of all will teach us the futility of war and wrangling and selfishness, after he has discov ered a way to make men listen ti reason, and behave intelligently Neither you nor 1 will ever hnov his name, for he will be a long time In coming, perhaps a thousand years But If the evils of disease can be tamed, and the face of the earth mapped and charted, surely the mind of man can be

Fashion Card Fashion prognostlcators are wondering If spring is to see a revival of rsglan sleeves in Paris styles On tweed coats and dresses, the raglao sleeve has long been standard for those who prefer it But cow the sleeve In one with the blouse is appearing on after noon dresses and frocks of semiformal line Some of these have a complex cutting, a favorite method being to cut the sleeve in one with the gar aent at the back, and sew them in at the front Sometimes the skillful Parisian dressmaker merely suggests the raglan line in an incrustation of fabric or a tiny Inverted tuck from throat to arm hole The unever hemline, aayJ Jtfssa ans Home Companion, featured in the newest designs is achieved in this unusual drees by means of a side cascade which breaks the straight line at

of the Interest in the frocks now being shown tn taris Whether they follow the simple or the elegant modes Into which fash ion is divided, they take attention away from the other parts of the costume by the novel petal, ruffle or tier designs with which they are trimmed Madeleine Vlonnet one of the few Paris couturleres who can achieve both elegance and simplicity in the same model, uses both petals and tiers on many of her daytime dresses With a severely simple blouse, distinguished by her particular Intricate cutting, she often combines a skirt made of several tiers, the tiers being circular and sometimes slightly lifted in front or at the side She also makes a skirt of very large elongated petals, which are cut fn one with the wide diagonal bands that form the waist Vlonnet prefers such simple materials as crepe rie chine, crepe marocaln and crepe safln for these mldseason frocks Her leading colors are a new soft green, beige, fawn, brown and black The petnied skirts on some of the evening models shown by this house are made with squared edges A threetier design is shown by Suzanne Talbot In the skirts of her newest daytime frocks Earh tier is made of narrow tabs, which are piped around the edges and scalloped at the bottom The blouse is made with a large scalloped jabut, which Is sometimes double and in two colors Her evening frocks are frequently made with full skirts of chiffon or lace and composed entirely of narrow ruffles or of pointed and plaited tiers Smart Frocks for Girls Very chic Indeed ft tiny girls are frocks consisting of straight little

York legislaturea long document declared by him to be his lasthe took the opportunity to set forth his position on prohibition and law en forcement for the benefit of those of his fellow countrymen who are considering his posslbilitv as a Presiden tial candidate Ostensibly confining himself to New York state affairs, he discussed also water power, budget reform, agriculture and structural governmental changes As for prohibition, he insisted it was the sacred duty of the state to sustain the eighteenth amendment and the Volstead act and reasserted that, so far as It was within his power, he would remove from office any public officer guilty of laxity in enforcement of the law He said the failure of the Republican legislature of 1919 to sub mit to a popular referendum the ques tion of ratifying the eighteenth amendment was the direct cause of the unrest, uneasiness and dissatisfaction apparent in large portioas of the state It has gone further and been the prime cause of

were flooded, com munication was interrupted and there was widespread suffering Prepared by the United States Department of AttTieultoxs Comparatively light losses from hog cholera the last season are the con aeqaenoe, experts of the United States Department of AgricuHnre believe, of wider and more intelligent use of antihogcholera serum To make more certain the correct use of serums, Dr D L Skldmore, chief of the division in control of the manufacture of serums, has explained in Circular No 11C, Comparative Values of Types of AntiHogCholera Serum, the dif ferences between the three types of perum available for cholera preven tion, namely, deflbrintited blood serum clear, uncoocentrated serum and clear, concentrated serum The value of each of these types as a preventive depends on the quality and quantity of true serum contained The concentrated serum contains 80 per cent of protective serum and the other two varieties 65 per cent each Consequently, 100 volumes of the con centrated serum have as much preventive effect as 125 volumes of the unconcentrated or deilbrlnatedblood serums With this known it is easy to calculate which offers the greater protection per dollar The depart ment, in supervising the manufacture of the serums, requires that each man ufacturer specify the minimum dose of the serum he sells which should do the immunization in pryper form The doses vary with the quality of the serums and with the age and weight of the hogs to which It is admlnlsv tered The best time to Immunize hogs, Doctor Skldmore says, Is before they are eight weeks old Larger pigs require larger and more expensive doss An additional advantage is that younger pigs are handled more easily The clear, concentrated serum has the additional advantage of keeping Its strength and preventive power for three years, while the unconcentrated scrums are not considered reliable after two years The added year of usefulness makes it eaisier for manufacturing laboratories to accumulate a supply sufficient for emergencies A copy of the circular may be obtained by writing to the United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D C ft SS Silage Makes Baby Beef Production Profitable In our strictly baby beef production cattle feeding our silo Is a very Important part of the equipment By using silage we can have our calf crop come from four to six weeks earlier, says a McLean county III writer in the Illinois Farmer Fed on silnge for two weeks previous to calving our cows, and particularly our heifers deliver their calves and raise them as satisfactorily as they formerly did late in the spring when on good prass These early calves are ready to wean first In the fall and learn to eat well before had weather cornea In fact, they are in front ail the way to market time We feed all the oats we raise on the farm, putting the threshed oats on the silage and also In the barn in the bundle These sheaf oats are fed In racks with a trough under neath to save the shattered grain from wasting Our system of baby beef production Is the result of two generations of ex perience In the same game on the same fann We have found it profitable and very Interesting Silage and alfalfa are two big Items to reduce the overhead in this business Find Early Colt Gains Are Always Cheapest Early gains are the cheapest gains with colts as well as with calves, pigs and lambs Hence, It pays to push the young foal along as rapidly as possible, suggests A B Caine of Iowa state college, and to do this he strongly urges getting the colt onto a ration of grain at as early an age as possible By supplementing the mares milk with grain, the colt should be well started when weaning time arrives, which should be at about six months, Mr Caine says, fintmrai ig one of the feeds which colts will eat more readily while young, he says Later, oats, bran and a small amount of corn may be substituted The oit should be allowed all of the clover or alfalfa hay that It will eat Grinding grnin for colts generally does not pay Mr Caine says, especi ally If the cost of the feed Is increased 10 to 1 per cent thereby Vaccinating Pigs Last fall the principal objection to vaccination came from those who thought that by the use of both serum and virus, the disease of cholera would be brought upon the place In reality there Is little danger In this respect and whatever danger there may be Is more than offset by the benefits, if the work Is done In time The hog, on moRt farms, represents the source of greatest profit If the pig crop for the year Is lost the profil of the farm is also lost SJ PSON SALESMANSHIP 9y O T FRASH TU WellDress Clerk T HE clerk who stands behind the coaster in sloppy attire is, to say the least, making s mighty poor display of his personal stockintrade Ha should remember that ail day ions he is selling two commoditieshis employers merchandise and bis own personality And its the personality of the clerk that largely determines bis real value An attractive personality most certainly Is not made so by a soiled collar, s threedays growth of beard, frayed cuffs or a rumpled waist When youre selling your personality, put It into s pleasing package Thats real merchandising Thats why crackers sell better in appealing cartons than when packed loosely in barrels Dirty finger nails and a grimy neck never helped the sale of a single ar ticle of merchandise A clerk with s clean, comfortable, contented appearance creates an Impression of confi dence, The employee that becomes s fitting representative of the employer sod of the Institution

his own personality to the retail customers, and through tbem, to the boss Drees neatly and cleanly, but not gaudily Avoid as you would a quarantine placard anything that looks freakish or bizarre In other words, dress so that your appearance will convey the general Impression of quiet neatness without ostentation Remember that the merchandise you are sell ing is the thing on which you want your customers attention concen trated, and when you wear something that will distract that attention, you deliberately reduce your saies efficiency and therefore your earning capacity I once knew a book agent end a very successful one, who started out one Monday morning wearing a dark red vest The following Friday, after nearly a week of miserable business, an incident occurred which revealed to him

careful attention to your attire Working Off the Stickers T HERE are certain items ot merchandise that have worn out their welcome Possibly theyre soiled, shelfworn, out of date, or otherwise slightly

Americans who will chus be carrying on a unique tradition In VS honoring the memory of a President of the United States February 12 and February 22 are set aside In our patriotic calendar for reverent tribute to the names of Lincoln and Washington October 27, Roosevelts birthday Is often obeerved as Navy day, thus recalling bis part In building up our first tine of defense But January 29 is a date for remembering not so much those elements of statesmanship which twice made him Chief Executive of Ills country as it Is for remembering the simple, kindly soul that was the man named William McKinley There fore tills simple tribute of wearing his favorite flower on his birthday is singularly appropriate So swiftly has the world moved In the last quarter century that, to the present generation, at least, the name of the twentyfourth President is com paratively unknown His fame Is greatly overshadowed by the dominating personality of his Immediate successor, the strenuous American, and by a still later strong personality of quite another sort, whose fortune t was to lead us in the greatest war this country has ever known But to those of a previous generation the name of McKinley has a very definite meaning Its mention recalls to them that September day In 1901 when the word was flashed alt over the country that an anarchist had shot the President as he stood In Music hall at the PanAmerican exposition In Buffalo, N, Y greeting the long line of his fellow citizens who filed past him to shake his hand They remember, too, how for the next week the whole nation watched his valiant fight for, life how he accepted the Inevitable with the historic words, Thy will, not ours, be done and how, when the end came on September 14, bis favorite hymn, Nearer, My God, to Thee was the requiem of sorrow of thousands who mourned the loss of William McKinley the President, but more the passing of William McKin ley, the man, whose perfect devotion to his Invalid wife had excited universal admiration So America added a third name to tnake Its trinity of martyred Presidents, and as it did so little realized that It was definitely writing Finis to an era In American history Little won der that the present generation has almost forgotten him and his times For In at least one important respect, the day of William McKinley is as remote from the present as Is the day of Abraham Lincoln or even of An drew Jackson The year 1900 was more than the turn of the century for the United States For 110 years America had been concerned with its own Internal affairs, with the problems of forming a union out of a group of Jealous and wrangling colonies lately freed from European domination, of conquering t wilderness and expanding westward until the land hunger of Its people was satisfied, of preserving the nation from disunion and healing the wounds of civil strife But when on the 25th of AprlL 1898 congress passed a resoLand in Dispute Cooks Croft, made famous by

Isolation the beginning of Its concern with external affairs and Its assumption, of a place of Importance In the congress of na tions So the historical Importance of William McKinley is that he was a guiding force In turning the American ship of state from the sometimes trou bled waters of nationalism Into the everturbulent waters of internationalism In which It seems destined to sail henceforth What was the historic background o the man cast for this role and his preparation for his task Not in the least the kind that a prophet would have called appropriate for the result to be attained But it was apparently the kind that only a democracy such as ours could produce For the man whom Fate had selected to be leader of th nation at this turning point In the relation of the Dnlted States to the outside world was an Ohio school teacher and lawyer who had served faithful ly but with no especial brilliance in the Civil war and who had risen by the successive steps of prosecuting attorney, congressman, and governor to the Presidency Emphatically not a leader, writes Carl Russell Fish In his volume, The Pnth of Empire In the Yale University Press Chron icles of America, and continues He was, however, unsurpassed in his day as a reader of public opinion and he believed his function to be that of Interpreting the national mind Nor did he yield his opinion In a grudging manner He grasped broadly the consequences of each new position which the public assumed and be was a master of securing harmonloaa cooperation for a desired end Of him another biographer ha written President McKlnlys course during the many exciting events of bis administration was marked by a degree of tact, prudence and foresight which surprised even his friends He surrounded himself with able advisers, maintained cordial relations with congress and steadily grew In popularity with the country at large He possessed to an unusual degree the fac ulty of forecasting public sentiment In the light of these estimates It would appear that McKinley, even though he did not have that training In statecraft which might be consld ered essential to a situation Involvinginternational relations, was apparent ly an Ideal leader for a people onc they had entered upon a war which was to be so momentous In their history It was a war which he was opposed to and during all the negotiations with Spain, that preceded the actual outbreak of war, he repeatedly counseled patience anu restraint Even after the destruction of the Maine, when the country was in a white heat of Indignation against Spain, he held fast to his purpose of securing a peaceful settlement of the dispute between the two countries over the Cuban problem Finally, convinced that Spain would not accept Americas proposals and assured of the deepseated conviction of the American people regarding their duty to the Cubans, the President reluctantty took the decisive step Not only did the SpanishAmerica war, the highlight of McKlnleys ad ministration, result in Americas coming Into possession of colonies in tinFar East which brought the coum Into the realm of International poii tics, but during that administration were taken also the other steps which aided In furthering her Interests In worldwide affairs It was McKlnleys secretary of state, John Hay, whose open door policy in regard to China made the United States an active factor In the future of the Orient and It was McKinley himself, whose proposal In 1899 for a PanAmerican congress, who made the first overtures for a better understanding among the American republics, North and South It was to popularize the PanAmerican Idea that the exposition, where the President received his death wound, was arranged, and It was just after he had set forth his views on the ties which should bind the two continents that he was shot Today a magnificent memorial stands in his home city of Canton, Ohio, as the tribute of that state and the nation as well to a beloved leader Historians of the future may point to his administration as the most significant turning point in all American history, and as time gfcres a better perspective for evaluation of his Importance, President William McKinley may loom larger and larger m the gallery of American notables But for the American people, whom he understood as few Presidents have, the best tribute that they can pay him is the pimple tribute on January 29 of each year of honoring his memory with a simple thinghis favorite flower YELLOWCORN IS BEST FOR HENS Yellow com should constitute at least 00 tier cent of the total rations for laying hens This Is especially Important during the winter months when the supply of green food 1 limited The chief virtue yellow corn possesses which is not present In white com is vitalise A whbn must be provided to maintain the health of the flock Where rations are devoid of this vitamine the bens will develop a disease very similar to roup In fact it Is ealled nutritional roup The eyes water, swell Bhut, and white pustules form in the throat Naturally the egg production Is very poor One cms till by observing the color of the egg yolk whether the danger line is near If the egg yolks are extremely pale, 11 it a practical index that the ration is low in vitamine A and that vitamin A must be provided, otherwise danger is ahead This Is due to the fact that feeds rich in the yellow coloring mat ter found in eggs are usually rich In vitamine A If yellow corn constitutes half of the ration, there is no causa for alarm In case it Is impossible to feed yslowcorn, then it is absolutely paces sary to feed some green leafy material such as clover or alfalfa leaves Pts green alfalfa leaf meal may be used to the extent of 10 to 15 per cent of the poultry mash, or clover or alfalfa hay should be kept In suitable racks before the hens all the time Some people build a Vshaped rack of slats which will hold a bale of hay The rack should be high enough off the floor so that the bens may pick easily off the lower corner Later the balel may be rolled over, and after the leaves are consumed, the stems may be used as litter It should be remem bered that If yellow corn la used, It lal not so necessary to feed the hay Succulent material, such as root crops, is not a substitute for the green leafy material tltlon with the lowest priced cars, has oatered the eyes of the

Bonea also require minerals Both bonea and shells are largely made up of calcium Without the necessary calcium, laying hens will lack the materials necessary for producing eggs Even though enough other feed may be supplied to furnish the necessary mate rials for a large number of eggs a hen cannot lay more eggs than she has shetl rrlaterlal for Considerable experimental data ha been compiled which shows definitely that a plentiful supply of minerals has a marked effect on the number of eggs laid In addition to a plentiful supply of oyster shell or other high calcium mineral, hens need free access to a supply of sharp sand to aid them In digesting their feed These Items represent a email cost to the producer but make a large difference In the net returns Growing poultry also requires a liberal supply of minerals In addition to calcium, many producers are mix lng from four to five pounds of bone meal with every 100 pounds of mash Bone meal furnishes phosphates In addition

build a concrete wall four Inches thick on the outside or the Inside of the old foundation This wall should extend two feet below the ground level and at least one foot above It A fourinch concrete floor Is then placed directly on the compacted earth If the natural drainage Is poor a cinder or gravel fill six Inches thick is first placed on the earth however, in most cases this fill Is not needed a The door is equipped with a spring hinge or some other device which will close It automatically If the door is of wood, a good plan Is to place a piece of sheet metal or of onefourth inch, 12gauge wire screen, one foot hith on its base In order to prevent the rats from gnawing through it tor claims that as it has never been apportioned it therefore cannot be re apportioned and no one can claim It In 1700 the spot was called Three Gates because of three gates that stood nnder an old tree in the lonely spot Turpin stood under the tree when he robbed the Gravesend coach Famous Breed of Cattle Frleslan cattle were mentioned by the Roman historian Tacitus as befog of importance as early as the year 28 A D Perhaps because of this early start or by reason of the favorable location of the province In regard to Industrial cities of northern Europe, Fries and farmers have grown prosperous through many years of furnishing their neighbors with butter and cheese Presidential Bodyguard The use of bodyguards by Presidents of the United States dates back to Andrew Johnson who was the first American President to go around guarded Sprouting Oats One of the easiest ways to sprout oats is to place the oats In a bag and soak It In a pail of water overnight IJse warm water in winter Soak two quarts for each 100 hens After soik lng overnight, hang the bag behind the kitchen stove Dip the hag tn warm water once dally, shaking the oats each time, and hang np again The oats Is ready for use on the fifth day If one uses five bags for sprout lng oats, he can have a constant supply by starting a new bag each day Eggs in Winter Many poultrymen are finding that they need warmer houses for winter egg production and are lining their houses with commercial wall board at the time of the fall renovation This lining gives the house a smooth ap pearance on the Inside and removes a lot of the cracks and crevlcea around the uprights This reduces the time required to brush out the dust and

it Is said, greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends Mickey exhibited that highest type of courage, the courage which neltoer tears nor hopes for praise, which Is not buoyed up by applause oor sup ported by the expectation of reward Goethe, who wrote wonderfully ot many things, said Courage and mod esty are the most unequivocal of vir tues for tbey are of the kind that hypocrisy cannot imitate What Is courage and why once In a great while do we do something truly courageous Courage is of two types The physical which braves bodily danger The mental which rises above all opinion Physical courage Is shared alike by man and beast The bulldog, the game cock, scores of varieties of both beast and bird will fight against tremendous odds and yield only when nature ends their struggles That Is courage with out logic, neither very lofty nor In spiring Man alone ot all creation may let courage and reason, each exercising its proper Influence, determine action True courage knows nothing of fear Its eyes are fixed wholly on the desired result, bridging whatever lies between Ambition, courage and persistence, those three are the greatest factors In a successful life Ambition Is worth less without the other two Courage Is useless unless there Is something to which it may be definitely and expressly applied Persistence without ambition and courage Is like a rail road ticket which has no destinarlon named upon it It will take you some where but you do not know where The kind of courage that Mickey had could both dare and do He faced his duty, as

made, in Lincolns day In Lincolns day then millions sought the churches On Sunday morning seeking truth and light Laid bare their hearts, the hearts that heaven searches, Asked God to Judge them and to set them right Oh, there were millions then, the high, the lowly, Who felt the need to ask, the need to pray, The need of something higher, some thing holy, To help them live their lives In Lin

Table Etiquette xOo By H IRVING KING Vvvv f hy McCtar Newspaper Syndicate OForests Need Leaves Are you tempted to rake up the leaves in the woodlot to burn or to use elsewhere Remember that the leaf litter on the ground is bread and meat to the growing timber IT IS to be hoped that no one who rends these articles will be guilty of such a breach of table etiquette as to spin a knife around at table Yet if anyone should so far forget himself as to do such n thing let him he sure und spin the knife buck again in a reverse direction or he will have bad luck, This superstition Is one of which the essential and explanatory part has drojed out, in the course of the centuries The key to It Is found In the folklore of some remote English districts where the superstition reads that tf the knife Is spun from right to left It must at once be spun bnckward from left to right That is If It is spun against the sun it must be spun hack with the sunIn the direction of the movements of the hands of a clock This makes the whole thing clearthe superstition Is a remnant of sunworship The movement from left to right Is in conformity with the apparent course of the sun and was called the ceremonial circuit Thus did the Egyptian priests move in profession, worshiping the sungod Ita, when Memmons statue sang to the rising day by the shores of the Nile To reverse this sacred, cere monlal circuit would, of course, be a sacrilege sure to be punished by the offended sungod, unless amends were quickly made by resuming the ordained sunwise order of movement So the current superstition regarding knife twirling should run If at table you should, through forgetfulness, twirl your knife from right to left be sure and twirl it back again from left to right or sunwise, or bad lurk will get you,

LOST CHIES SOUTH OF MEXICO Tuiane Scientists to Explore Mayan Wilderness New Orleans, LaPlans for an expedition to unexplored regions of Cen tral America and Mexico are being completed by Tuiane university, according to announcement by Dr Frans Blom, acting head of the department oi Middle American research The expedition is made possible by a fund, and will be known as the John Geddings Gray Memorial expedition The expedition staff, which expects to set oat in January, will travel about 2,000 miles, seeking ruins of old Maya cities, studying little known tribes and venturing into the great unexplored forests of the Tzendales region In these forests are thousands of square miles very little known Doctor Blom states Fifteen hundred years ago, he says, this forest was under culture, and scattered throughout the area moU be a series of interesting cities in ruin The 1S25 Tuiane expedition found many ruins on the southeastern side of this territory The Austrian explorer, Teobert Maler, discovered many magnificent cities along toe Usumacinla river, and as the country between the territory explored by the Tuiane expedition of 1925 and the aforementioned river is quire like the area already explored there Is little doubt but that we shall make some remarkable dls eries The Lacondon Indians, who inhabit this forest, speak of several lakes which have never been placed on the maps and It will be one of our objects to locate those The Lacondon Indians, to this day, use flintheaded arrows for weapons They dress in bark clothes and they worship the sun and rain gods Their life has been studied by Professor Tozzer of Har vard university, but the Gray Memorial expedition will be the first to take moving pictures of this strange tribe As the tribe is in rapid decline and dying out, these pictures will probably also be the last to be taken of the Lacondons The expedition staff will consist of three or four scientists, headed by Doctor Blom Americans Balk at Paris High Prices ParisAmericans are losing something of their reputation as the star spenders, the easy marks, in France Visitors from the country where the French seem to think every one Is a millionaire are reported to be looking twice at the price of thingsand not always buying The highest priced motion picture house on the boulevards complnins that Americans distinguish themselves at the box office by looking over the price sign20 francs or 80 centsand frequently fading away Several newspapers of tate, commenting on slack business in certain lines, mention that Americans find prices high They regret that these tourists will go home to spread word that Paris is expensive, even for them Few recognize that, as the franc is virtually stabilized at 4 cents, world prices prevail here, and many things made in small, relatively inefficient factories here cost much more than similar products, made by machine and in great quantities, In America Champagne at 200 francs, or 8, a bottle In the Montmartre cabarets is quite a shock to tourists Large parties of slummers now find courage to make one bottle enough for their visit to the nightlife stage setting American women, nlso, rather staggered at 150 or 200 for a Paris gown plus the duty that may have to be paidoften dont buy, or buy fewer costumes and pick up exact copies of Paris models In New York on their way back, at far less

addicted to the use of nar cotics are Increasing in California The average age of the addict u fourteen years less than it was 11 years ago, and the ranks of narcotic vendors are recruited from former prisoners who Leave penitentiaries with only S5 given them by the state, according to figures recently made public by officials of the California state prison here The figures show only the number of prisoners who admit using dope or have been discovered to he addicts In 1S16 only 2L5 per cent of tne prisoners used narcotics in 1920 the percentage jumped to 57 per cent and in 1928 it was 12 per cent The figures for 1927 have not yet been compiled Average Age of Users The average age of the user in 1916 was thirtyseven today it is twentythree The age the user began to use narcotics in 1916 was twentythree, and today it Is slightly under eighteen Morphine Is by far the most commonly used Opium is second, cocaine third, and heroin fourth When a dope addict Is sent to prison his supply is not tapered off, but is cut sharply The women In particular, suffer greatly when morphine Is taken away from them They are sick mentally and physically for many months after their supply is stopped About 8 per cent of the women, according to the prison matron, have been addicts The approximate annual opium sup ply is 1,500 tons Of this amount, only 25 tons are used for medicinal pur poses, and the balance, 1,375 tons, is sold illegitimately to user The 1375 tons give about 8000,000 doses or shotsand that is morphine alone The profit in 12 worth of opium, when sold on the street by peddlers, is about 7,200 Smuggling in Drugs Drugs formerly were smuggled Inside the prison walls in the barrels of fountain pens Inside of soap, in the handles of safety razors, and shaving brushes, between the covers of books, in candy, in tailormade cigarettes and by other ingenious methods A certain Quantity of drugs still gets within the walls of the prison, bui the addict is now carefully watched, and his privileges, puch as receiving mail or packages, are usually taken away from him on the first offense According to the Narcotic Rehabilitation society, about 1,000 men and HOIWD each day start to use some kind of drug POTASH DEPOSITS FOUND IN TEXAS Enough to Supply Americas Needs for 250 Years In Six Months Gasoline Tax Nets 101,250,841 WashingtonGasoline taxes yielded a total of 101,250,841 In the first six months of 1927, according to In formation collected from the states by the bureau of public roads of th United States Department of Agriculture TiUs represents an Increase of 192 per cent over the same period of 192G A tax was imposed in all but four states and two of these have since adopted a tax, so that only two states, New York and Massachusetts, do not now tax gasoline The rate of tax on June 30 ranged from 2 to cents per gallon and averaged 2o cents The revpnue derived indicates that 4MUXHMK0 gallons of gasoline were consumed by motor vehicles, includ ins pstimntcd amounts for those states not imposing the tax This is 114 per cent more than was reported for the first six months of 1926, while the Increase In motor vehicle registration was only 7 per cent This seems to indicate an Increased use of the motor vehicle U S Loans Abroad for 1927 Are 2,000,193,500 New YorkAmerican capital In 1927 loaned abroad a total oi 2,000,193,500, establishing a record for

deposits large enough u supply Americas needs for 250 years have been discov ered in western Texas, Dr EL ii Sei Utrds and Dr K Scaoch of the Uni versity of Texas have reported to tne American CLeiuical society In ths past the United States has depended on Germany for potash The search for the compound in this field was begun by J A Udden of the Universiry of Texas, lie suspected the presence of potash, because here, just as in Germany, there was once a Permanian sea which bad been cut off from the rest of the ocean and has evaporated to dryness Udden found potash minerals In well cuttings in the area His pio neering work was completed by the United States geological survey These deposits will naturally be mined like coal the two professors report The productssulphates of potassium, sodium and magnesium have a different market value from the chlorides With an oil held within a few miles, and the fact that solar evaporation is very easily carried out In the dry and rarefied atmosphere of the Texas high plains, it is seen that the cost of production should be moderate The industry will also be helped by the fact that the oil industry has developed the nearby city of Odessa so that power, supplies, labor, etc, may all be readily and cheaply obtained there The amount of potash In sight may be suid to be that underlying a strip three mile wide by sis miles long Within the soluble layer this strip contains 23000000 tons of potassium oxide and in the polyhallte layers about 34000000 tons At present the United States consumption is 250,000 tons of potassium oxide per an num For tiiis rate of consumption the foregoing will suffice for 250 years Alaskans Protest Use of Planes by Hunters Anchorage, AlaskaAirplanes are carrying hunters into the ret rents once comparatively safe for big game in Alaska, and guides, prospectors and homesteaders are protesting The Invasion, they say, threatens havoc to moose, mountain sheep and mountain boat Guides characterize the past season as one of the most productive known to Alaskan hunters Hut they say that commercialization of big game hunt ing by companies operating plane from the terminus of the railroad into the mountain ranges, already is de pleting the supply of sheep and goats The protest by prospectors and homesteaders is raised because, they say, the invasion by air is reaching precincts where they take the supply of meat that enables them to subsist These residents assert that in almost any valley or on any mountain range, game once wns plentiful and was killed only for meat Now, they allege, tons upon tons of meat are left to rot on the hills because the hunters kill only to obtain heads as trophies British Adults Give Each Other New Toys LondonIelleve It or not,

substituting 150 pounds of ground wheat and CO pounds of bran for the 100 pounds of bran, plus 100 pounds of middlings A good homegrown laying mash can be made of 100 pounds of ground corn 100 pounds of ground oats, 150 pounds of ground wheat 60 pounds of bran, and 100 pounds of meat scrap When plenty of skim milk or buttermilk is available, the amount of meat scrap in the mash can be reduced onehall In that way the farmer raising wheat, corn, oats and milk, can make up 500 pounds of laying mash by purchasing 50 pounds of meat scrap and 50 pounds of bran The homegrown mash Is greatly Improved by adding minerals In the form of 2 per cent ground limestone, 2 per cent bone meal, and 1 per cent fine table salt The use of mineral tends to improve the strength and quality of the egg shells, thus avoiding the eggeating habit La the flock, as well as the production of softshelled eggs Some poultrymen believe that more minerals and less meat scrap will be the tendency in making egg mashes within a few years Their cost per pound is so small, considering their value, that they should not be omitted from the homemade mashes Blindness in Ducks Is Blamed on Impure Water When ducks have access to a lake, pond or river there are no cases of sore festering eyes which later may develop into blindness The birds dir their heads deep into the water anrl the eyes are cleansed of any dirt or sticky feed that has adhered to them Ducks without a natural supply of water should be given their drinking water in deep dishes or crocks so that they can rinse out their eyes whenever they drink This also tends to rine the nostrils and prevents the clogging with feed which is serious if the bird catches cold about the same time Ducklings sometimes have colds which cause a sticky discharge from the eyes The mucus can be absorbed with small wads of tissue paper and the eyes washed with witch hazel or boric acid solution Deep drinking dikas wilt help the bird to take care of Its eyes and nostrils and probably prevent the necessity of treatment Simple Party Frock A charmingly simple little frock for a girl of twelve, which will be at home at any party, is of beige chiffon with

Probably one of the most annoying things In the poultry business Is the frequent laying of softshelled eggs by a group of hens, or even only one hen It is a sign that something Is unprofitably and radically wrong with the henssomething that should be righted Immediately And as for the eggs themselves, they are perfectly useless and merely represent a loss ID good food In nine cases out of ten, a hen ays softshelled eggs because there is a lack of lime In her diet This mineral is really pure eggshell material Therefore, its absence from the diet results in either thinshelled eggs or eggs with no shell at all Of course calcium carbonate Is generally present in the food and water given to the hen, but there is seldom enough to satisfy her needs Poultry Notes j The feeding of milk will

brought the worst cyclonic storm In the history of the city The clouds that began to gather about dusk fcroke in a fine fury as the evening bos from Center Cross arrived on the edge of town Some little cyclone muttered 3us Lane and speeded for the nearest parking garage Hail and rain hud Started with as mueh violence as the wind, and the passengers in the bus GuS was driving were as glad to get under shelter out of the storm as tie was It was dangerous to be on the street In any manner, riding or walk ing Gus begun to worry about Cora McCarthy She was working that evening in the glassbox of an office at the service station, and the darn place was so small It might blow away Crazy stunt, Cora working nights Just because he took the eve ning run three times a week for a man who wanted to be off He was In town and off duty by nine oclock, but she had to set up a whine about being lonesome, and nine was too late for Mm to come around If she had wanted to be with him every evening why hadnt she married him on his straight salary Hed have never given a thought to extra work If she would have, but she insisted that they must have five hundred to pay down on a bungalow homeand It was up to him to get It We dont pay all our hardearned dough in rent, honey boy, she had always argued when he tried to persuade her to chuck her job and start housekeeping for him on a hundred per If there were only some way to get that 500 without working extra eve nings He didnt like having Cora around the station at nighttime It was no place for a girl There was a parage workshop attached, and the workmen were regular rowdies The president of the company had put a sign, 500 reward for any man caught in a crooked deal wjth an employee 5ee, didnt he wish he could spot the bootleggers The new bus dispatcher was makin him a bit uneasy, too He tiad begun to fear that he was trying to attract Cora Several times he had tieard her say that the dispatcher had Asked to take her home in his new Hfvver He was a regular style chap, with closecropped hair and a handsome bronzed beauty that might prove taking with any girl He had his eye on that guy, Donnon was his name, and he was always blowing off his spiel He had told Fllnn to watch him, also If tie heard of his getting frech with Cora, that bronzed beauty was going to be spoiled Flinn was the policeman on the station beat, but he couldnt protect Cora from the storm, and that was the greatest worry Gus had at the mo ment The big, silent, strongfaced man grew more and more miserable as signs and awnings began to whirl through the air, and trees lost their limb or crashed to the ground like the snappingof twigs It was hurricanlc while it lasted, but in an hour the wind had spent Itself and only the rain continued in a steady downpour, with accompany ing peals of thunder and lightning Ous backed his bus out of the subur ban garage at the earliest possbiie moment and made for the city proper and the station In particular at no moderate rate of speed The streets were Ptrewn with debris that told of the violence of the wind, and Gus became more and more anxious to be assured that the glass box of an office was still standing Jn Its accustomed place with no damage done to It Here and there he noticed windows blown out and tin from several roofs torn off Why did Cora have to be so cantankerous and take on that extra work evenings Hadnt he done everything he could to hurry and make that oMJ she wanted for a payment on a bunga low Right away he had taken to eating In dairy lunchrooms and at hotdog counters instead of cafeterias, and he had exchanged his good big comfortable sleeping quarters for a ball bedroom All that the saving might go to fatten the bank account growing into 500 Now if one of those glass sides of that box office bad blown in and Cora was all cut up He couldnt bear the thought calmly For every second lost to let a passenger oat of the bus he speeded up a little to make up for the delay Why were some people always out of luck, he mused If only he could get the drop on the fellow who hauled in stolen goods to the garage But when a smart detective and Flinn had both failed to spot him there was no use his wishing that a windfall like that would come to him He would have to patiently plug away at extra runs and rkimp along on next to nothing nntil he made the little pile that would gain Corns consent to a wedding Gas blew out his breath in a nighty sigh and slowed down the bus to let out another passenger That was the last one bat two, and they were both men that would ride Into the station he had brought them In from Center Cross before Guiding his bos carefully through the wet streets, he turned the first corner of the downtown district Thl4 section had once been a residential roe and the houses were mostly of three stories with a basement open ing onto the sidewalk pan eiheM were now occupied fcy eheap shops and fruit stands, and above the trade places were dilapidated rooms for rent In front of one of these houses about the middle of the block a ear was standing with its top crashed in, by a fallen tree The curtalus, whlc had been up, were torn to ribbons Gus caught sight of the car and In i spite of his perturbed state of mind over Coras safety he slowed down and looked closer with narrow scrutinizing eyes at the license number It was Dunnons and no mistake What was the bus dispatchers car doing in this neighborhood Gus stopped his bus and said to the two men passengers Seems to be a pretty little smash up on the oilier side of the street Think Ill go over and take a look at it The two men followed him, pulling up their coat collars as the rain was still coming down in a deluge that dimmed even ttie radiance of the street lights at corners and made the center of the block as dark as black night The basement shops had their i doors closed against the storm, and the pavements were practically deserted The lights were out on the damaged car and only the reflection from the bus lights on the opposite , side of the street helped the men and Gus to make out the wreckage They removed the fallen tree with a good deal of tugging, and felt inside of the car to ascertain if there might be anyone in there hurt Gus hand In passing over the rear seat, discovered that it was not a regularly upholstered one Just a builtin box with a thin tufted cushion over It He struck a match and shielding the flickering light with his big hand, he bade one of the men pull off the cushion and raise up the top of the box that represented a rear svat Ill be Jiggered A regular stickup carand loaded, too, to its capacity Gus straightened up with a long, low whistle Well, the old saying is that Its an ill wind that doesnt blow somebody good He then asked if either of the men who had helped him pull off the tree could drive Both shook their heads, and he told them he would pay them to sit in his bus for him until he could come or send back for it They hesitated, but when assured that a cop couldnt get them for doing that, they agreed If there Is no damage to this en gine, Ill be back in an hour or less, said Gus, jumping to the front of the damaged flivver and beginning to crank It The engine began to hum and Gus made for the wheel, but as he threw it Into gear, a streak of flame came through one of the darkened windows, and a bullet entered his left shoulder The two passengers dived across the street and into the bus, but Gu was halted only for one moment by the stinging, painful surprise He gripped the wheel with his right hand and guided the car around corners speeding for the station at a rate that broke every traffic law and would have en dangered life had there been any In tlie rain drenched streets to endanger One glance at the glassbox office when he came in sight of It showed him that no harm had come to Cora from the storm and with a mighty grinding of brakes and stripping of gears the busted flivver came to a stop before her window Gus fell for ward over the wheel unconscious Coras cry brought Policeman Flinn running from the corner and the two of them lifted the breeding man to the station floor Cora raced to tele phone for the hospital ambulance, and the license number and articles in the false back seat of the wrecked car had to serve for explanation until some hours later Then as Cora sat beside a hospital bed holding the hand of a weak, palefaced Gus, the lirst words he whispered were Youll get the five hundred to pay on a bungalow soon now, honey Think of it being Donnon all the time in jobs with the garage men and Flinn and that detective not getting the dope on him Yes isnt it wonderful But Id rather not had any 500 than for you to take such a chance, Cora returned with tenderness That aint half the chance Id take for you honey girlbesides the storm made it possible for me Know the old living Its an 111 wind that doosnt blow somebody good it Cannon Ball Before Advent of Gunpowder Cannon balls of stone, dating back to a time before there were any cannon to propel them, have been excavated from the ruins of an ancient irsenal in the citadel of the otd fireek city of Pergamon, In Asia Minor The exploration was conducted by a party of German scientists under the leadership of Dr Theodor Wiegand, director of the Prussian tate museum, who has Jnst reported his findings Though these balls were never fired from cannon, they were artillery ammunition nevertheless In the Third century B C, when they were carved, artillery consisted of huge crossbows or long wooden arms swung on counterweights, which could vend stones and heavy darts whizzing through the air for considerable distances About 000 of these stone cannon balls were found They range in caliber between five and sixteen Inches, and In weight between 13 and 172 poundsScience Service A Strategist AuntI dont think you are quits fair to your wife You never admit liking anything she cooks NephewIm

lambs are to be selffed In that case many feeders mix ground corn or ground barley with alfalfa meal With a mixture of equal parts of ground grain and alfalfa meal selffeeding of lambs seems to give very good results, provided they are started on a ration carrying as much as twothirds of alfalfa and then gradually decreasing the percentage of hay and increasing that of the grain Last winter the Kansas experiment statlou fed two lots of lambs averaging 54 pounds per head at the start one on ground corn and alfalfa hay and one on ground barley and alfalfa The corn lot gained 30 pounds per head in 95 days and the barley lot, 29 pounds during the same period The average daily consumption of feed by the former was 125 pounds ground corn and 183 pounds of alfalfa and by the latter, 123 pounds ground barley and 177 pounds alfalfa Per 100 pounds of gain the following feed was consumed By the corn lot, 397 pounds corn and 578 pounds alfalfa by the barley lot, 399 pounds barley and 574 pounds alfalfa Thus there appeared to be no difference In the feeding value, pound for pound, of corn and barley for lamb feeding purposee, when alfalfa hay was fed for roughage and was used to supply the main protein requirement By applying local prices to corn and alfalfa, anyone can deter mine for himself the feed cost of fattening lambs under farm conditions The cost of the feeder lambs and the probable market price of the fat lambs, of course, must be given the most careful consideration, as they have a most important bearing upon final results Winter Feed of Alfalfa Hay for Sows and Gilts Alfalfa hay as a winter feed for pregnant sows and gilts deserves considerably more attention than It re ceives, according to the results ol carefully controlled experiments The Nebraska station reports feeding some sows averaging 345 pounds on December 25 for a period of seventy days on a ration consisting of shelled corn and alfalfa hay fed in rack The corn was fed at the rate of 1 per cent of the live weight of the sows and they therefore received dally one pound of corn for each 100 pounds live weight The sows had free access to the alfalfa hay They averaged to gain 32 pounds each In the 70day period and farrowed pigs that weighed 23 pounds each at birth The Iowa station reports feeding a pen of five bred gilts through the winter on an average dally feed con sumption of 3,74 pounds corn and 111 pounds alfalfa hay fed In rack, The gilts gained 03 pound each daily, farrowed an average of 70 pigs that weighed 229 pounds each at birth, and were 8047 per cent strong at birth Advantages in Having Lambs in Late Winter There are advantages In having fwes drop their lambs in January and February Lambs coming at this time of the year will be big enough when turned on pasture to make good gains on crass and can be ready to market n May or June The market price for lambs Is usually good, early In the summer before any great number of lambs are being shipped In from the range states Early lambs which are of good size when they go to pasture also are better able to resist stomach worms and can be marketed before there Is much loss from this pest Live Stock Squibs 550i Slhige can be fed to every class of live stock, but for dairy cowa It Is well nigh indispensable If you want to force them to market use the selffeeders right through and let them gain as favit as they will The common mixture of oats and corn half and half, and prairie hay is not a good ration for fattening lambs Pigs will do well on corn alone, for a while, and then they stop growing It lacks some of the growthmaking dements and needs to be balanced with feeds like milk, buttermilk, tankage and alfalfa With all costs considered, silage can be made at a cost of from 5 to 6 per ton, and It Is worth from 8 to 12 as a stock food Calves which are being fattened during the winter must be well fed to be ready for market in the spring or early summer A bog hole around the water trough Is very

season is lifted high in front or at one side A petticoat of lace or chif fon is worn No ornamentation other than a chou of ribbon or flowers, single or in small cluster, is used There is a modernistic suggestion in some of the new dance frocks, some of which are made of three shades of a color In one model of taffeta the skirt Is formed of three flounces, each a shade of olive green, and the plain, sleeveless bodice Is made of the deepest shade, matching that of the bottom flounces Many party dresses are made of two shades, and the fashion of trimming with bands or a border of another shade, or n colored piece on white, though a season old, is still popular, One dress for a girl of fifteen is made of white taffeta, and has a hand of ink crepe added to each wide rufue of the skirt, suggesting a stick of peppermint candy Poultrymen with homegrown wheat can often use ground wheat In the lay ing mash with good results It save baying broth bran and middlings The beat results come from substituting 150 pounds of ground wheat and 60 pounds of bran for the 100 pound of bran, plus 100 pounds of middlings A good homegrown laying mash can be made of 100 pounds of ground corn 100 pounds of ground oats, 150 pounds of ground wheat, 50 pounds of bran, and 100 pounds of meat scrap When plenty of skim milk or buttermilk is available, the amount of meat scrap In the mash can he reduced one hall In that way the farmer raisins wheat, corn, oats and milk, can make up 500 pounds of laving mash by purchasing 50 pounds of meat scrap and 50 pounds of bran The homegrown mash is greatly Improved by adding minerals in the form of 2 per cent ground limestone, 2 per cent bone meal, and 1 per cent fine table salt The use of minerals tends to Improve the strength and quality of the egg shells, thus avoid ing the eggeating habit in the flock, as well as the production of softshelled eggs Some poultrymen believe that more minerals and less meat scrap will be the tendency in making egg mashes within a few years Their cost per pound Is so small, considering their value, that they should not be omitted from the homemade mashes Blindness in Ducks Is Blamed on Impure Water When ducks have access to a lake, pond or river there are no cases of sore festering eyes which later may develop into blindness The birds dip their beads deep into the water and the eyes are cleansed of any dirt or sticky feed that has adhered to them Ducks without a natural supply of water should be given their drinking water in deep dishes or crocks so that they can rinse out their eyes when ever they drink This also tends to rine the nostrils and prevents the clogging with feed which Is serious If the bird catches cold about the same time Ducklings sometimes have colds which cause a sticky discharge from the eyes The mucus can be absorbed with small wads of tissue paper and the eyes washed with witch hazel or boric acid solution Deep drinking diskss will help the bird to take care of its eyes and nostrils and probably prevent the necessity of treatment SoftShelled Eggs Are Caused by Wrong Feed Probably one of the most annoying tilings in the poultry business is the frequent laying of softshelled eggs by a group of hens, or even only one hen It is a sign that something is unprofitably und radically wrong with the henssomethingthat should he righted immediately And as for the eggs themselves, they are perfectly useless and merely represent a loss in good food In nine cases out of ten, a hen ays softshelled eggs because there is lack of lime In her diet This mineral is really pure eggshell material Therefore, its absence from the diet results in either thinshelled eggs or eggs with no shell at all Of course, calcium carbonate Is generally present in the food and water given to the hen, but there Is seldom enough to satisfy her needs Tints for Evening in Palm Reach Fashions The evening mode for Ialm Beach plays up white for its important featurtwhite

history of the city The clouds that begun to gather about dusk fcroke in a tine fury as the evening bos from Center Cross arrived on the edge of town Some little cyclone muttered 3u Lane and speeded for the nearest parking garage Hail and rain had Started with as much violence as the wind, and the passengers in the bus Gus was driving were us glad to get under shelter out of the storm as he was It was dangerous to be on the Street in any manner, riding or walk ing Gus began to worry about Cora McCarthy She was working that evening in the glassbox of an office at the service station, and the darn place was so small It might blow away Crazy stunt, Cora working nights Just because he took the eve ning run three times a week for a man who wanted to be off He was In town and off duty by nine oclock, but she had to set up a whine about being lonesome, and nine was too late for him to come around If she had wanted to be with him every evening why hadnt she married him on his straight salary Hed have never given a thought to extra work if she would have, but she insisted that they must have five hundred to pay down on a bungalow homeand it was up to him to get it Ve dont pay all our hardearned dough in rent, honey boy, she had always argued when he tried to persuade her to chuck her job and start housekeeping for him on a hundred per If there were only some way to get that 500 without working extra eve nings He didnt like having Cora around the station at nighttime It was no place for a girl There was a garage workshop attached, and the workmen were regular rowdies The president of the company had put a Sign, 500 reward for any man caught In a crooked deal with an employee Jee, didnt he wish he could spot the bootleggers The new bus dispatcher was making him a bit uneasy, too He bad begun to fear that he was trying to attract Cora Several times he had beard her say that the dispatcher had asked to take her home in his new flivver He was a regular style chap, with closecropped hair and a handsome bronzed beauty that might prove taking with any giri He had his eye on that guy, Donnon was his name, and he was always blowing off his piel He had told Flinn to watch him, also If he heard of his getting fresh with Cora, that bronzed beauty was going to be spoiled Flinn was the policeman on the station beat, but he couldnt protect Cora from the storm, and that was the greatest worry Gus had at the mo ment The big, silent, strongfaced man grew more and more miserable JUS signs and awnings began to whirl through the air, and trees lost their limbs or crashed to the ground like the snapping of twigs It was hurricanic while It lasted, but in an hour the wind had spent Itself and only the rain continued In a steady downpour, with accompany ing peals of thunder and lightning Ous backed his bus out of the subur ban garage at the earliest possbile moment and made for the city proper and the station in particular at no moderate rate of speed The streets were strewn with debris that told of the violence of the wind, and ins became more and more anxious to be assured that the glass box of an office was still standing in its accusnmed place with no damage done to it Here and there he noticed windows blown out and tin from several roofs torn off Why did Cora have to be so cantankerous and take on that extra work evenings Hadnt he done everything he could to hurry and make that 500 she wanted for a payment on a bunga low Right away he had taken to eating in dairy lunchrooms and at hot dog counters instead of cafeterias, and he had exchanged his good big comfortable sleeping quarters for a ball bedroom All that the saving might go to fatten the bank account growing into 500 Now if one of those glass sides of that box office bad blown in and Cora was all cut up He couldnt bear the thought calmly For every second lost to let a passenger out of the bus he speeded up a little to make up for the delay Why were some people always out of luck, he mused If only he could get the drop on the fellow who hauled In stolen goods to the garage But when a smart detective and Flinn had both failed to spot him there was no use his wishing that a windfall like that would come to him He would have to patiently plug away at extra runs and rklmp along on Dext to nothing until he made the little pile that would gain Coras consent to a wedding Gus blew out his breath in a mighty sigh and slowed down the bus to let out another passenger That was the last one but two, and they were both men that would ride into the station he had brought them in from Center Cross before Guiding his bus carefully through the wet streets, he turned the first corner of the downtown district ThU section had once been a residential me and the houses wre mostly of three stor with a basement open ing oltn the sidewalk moo of these were now occupied fcy cheap shops and fruit stands, and above the trad places were dilapidated rooms for rent In front of one of these houses about the middle of the block a ear was standing with its top crashed in, by a fallen tree The curtains, whicsj had been up, were torn to ribbons , Gus caught siyht of the car and in j spite of his perturbed state of mind over Coras safety he slowed down and looked closer with narrow scrutinizing eyes at the license number It was Donnous and no mistake What was the bus disputchers car doing in this neighborhood Gus stoppeti his bus and said to the two men passengers Seems to be a pretty little sumshupon the other side of the street Think Ill go over and take a look at it The two men followed him, pulling up their coat collars as the ruin was sLill coming down in a deluge that dimmed even the radiance of the street lights at corners and made the center of the block as dark as black night The basement shops hud their i doors closed against the storm, and the pavements were practically deserted The lights were out on the damaged car and only tnr reflection from the bus lights on the opposite side of the street helped the men and Gus to make out the wreckage They removed the fallen tree with a good deal of tugging, and felt inside of the car to ascertain if there might be anyone in there hurt Gus hand in passing over the rear seat, discovered that it was not a regularly upholstered one Just a builtin box with a thin tufted cushion over it He struck a match and shielding the flickering light with his big hand, he bade one of the men pull off the cushion and raise up the top of the box that represented a rear seat Ill be jiggered A regular stickup carand loaded, too, to its capacity Gus straightened up with a long, low whistle Well, the old saying is that Its an ill wind that doesnt blow somebody good He then asked if either of the men who had helped him pull off the tree could drive Both shook their heads, and he told them he would pay them to sit In his bus for him until he could come or send back for it They hesitated, but when assured that a cop couldnt get them for doing that, they agreed If there is no damage to this en glne, Ill be back in an hour or less, said Gus, jumping to the front of the damaged flivver and beginning to crank It The engine began to hum and Gus made for the wheel, but as he threw it into gear, a streak of lame came through one of the darkened windows, and a bullet entered his left shoulder The two passengers dived across the street and into the bus, but Gus1 was halted only for one moment by the stinging, painful surprise He gripped the wheel with his right hand and guided the car around corners speeding for the station at a rate that broke every traffic law and would have en dangered life had there been any in the rain drenched streets to endanger One glance at the glassbox office when he came in sight of it showed him that no harm had come to Cora from the storm and with a mighty grinding of brakes and stripping of gears the busied flivver came to a stop before her window Gus fell for ward over the wheel unconscious Coras cry brought Policeman Flinn running from the corner and the two of them lifted the bleeding man to the station floor Cora raced to telephone for the hospital ambulance, ami the license number and articles In the false back seat of the wrecked car had to serve for txplunation until some hours later Then as Cora sat beside a hospital bed holding the hand of a weak, palefaced Gus the iirst words he whispered were Youll get the five hundred to pay on a bungalow soon now, honey Think of It being Donnon all the time in jobs with the garage men and Flinn and that detective not getting the dope on him Yes isnt it wonderful But Id rather not had any 500 than for you to take such a chance, Cora returned with tenderness That aint half the chance Id take for you honey girlbesides the storm made It possible for me Know the old paying Its an III wind that doesnt blow somebody good it Cannon Balls Before Advent of Gunpowder Cannon balls of stone, dating buck to a time before there were any can turn to propel them, have been excavated from the ruins of an ancient arsenal in the citadel of the old Greek city of Pergamon, in Asia Minor The exploration was conducted by a party of German scientists under the leadership of Dr Theodor Wiegand, director of the Prussian ,fate museum, who has just reported his findings Though these balls were never fired from cannon, they were artillery ammunition nevertheless In the Third century B C, when they were carved, artillery consisted of huge crossbows or long wooden arms swung on counterweights, which could end stones and heavy darts whizzing through the air for considerable distances About 900 of these stone cannon balls were found They range in caliber between five and sixteen Indies, and In weight between and 1T2 poundsScience Service A Strategic AuntI dont think you are quits fair to your wife You never admit liking anything she cooks NephewIm sorry, aunt but If sht thought I liked a

feeders mix ground corn or ground barley with alfalfa meal With a mixture of equal parts of ground grain and al falfa meal selffeeding of lambs seems to give very good results, provided they are started on a ration carrying as much as twothirds of alfalfa and then gradually decreasing the percentage of hay and increasing that of the grain Last winter the Kansas experiment station fed two lots of lamba averaging 54 pounds per head at the start one on ground corn and alfalfa hay and one on ground barley and alfalfa The corn lot gained 30 pounds per head In 95 days and the barley lot, 29 pounds during the same period The average daily consumption of feed by the former was Ui5 pounds ground corn and 183 pounds of alfalfa and by the latter, 123 pounds ground barley and 177 pounds alfalfa Per 100 pounds of gain the following feed was consumed By the corn lot, 397 pounds corn and 578 pounds alfalfa by the barley lot, 399 pounds barley and 574 pounds alfalfa Thus there appeared to be no difference in the feeding value, pound for pound, of corn and barley for lamb feeding purposes, when alfalfa hay was fed for roughage and was used to supply the main protein requirement By applying local prices to com and alfalfa, anyone can deter mine for himself the feed cost of fattening lambs under farm conditions The cost of the feeder lambs and the probable market price of the fat lambs, of course, must be given the most careful consideration, as they have a most important bearing upon final results Winter Feed of Alfalfa Hay for Sows and Gilts Alfalfa hay as a winter feed for pregnant sows and gilts deserves considerably more attention than It re ceives, according to the results of carefully controlled experiments The Nebraska station reports feeding some sows averaging 345 pounds on December 25 for a period of seventy days on a ration consisting of shelled corn and alfalfa hay fed In rack The corn was fed at the rate of 1 per cent of the live weight of the sows and they therefore received dally one pound of corn for each 100 pounds live weight The sows had free access to the alfalfa hay They averaged to gain 32 pounds each In the 70day period and farrowed pigs that weighed 23 pounds each at birth The Iowa station reports feeding a pen of five bred gilts through the winter on an average daily feed con sumption of 3,74 pounds corn and 111 pounds alfalfa hny fed In rack The gilts gained 03 pound each daily, farrowed an average of 70 pigs that weighed 220 pounds each at birth, and were 8947 per cent strong at birth Advantages in Having Lambs in Late Winter There are advantages in having fves drop their lambs in January and February Lambs coming at this time of the year will be big enough when turned on pasture to make good gains on crass and can be ready to market n May or June The market price for lambs is usually good, early In the summer before any great number of lambs are being shipped In from the range states Karly lainhs which are of good size when they go to pasture also are better able to resist stomach worms and can be marketed before there is much loss from this pest CAP AND BELLS WHAT IT PROVED The lawyer and a womai were walking

fed to every class of live stock, but for dairy cows It is well nigh indispensable If you want to force them to market use the selffeeders right through and let them gain as fat as they will The common mixture of oats and corn half and half, aDd prairie hay Is not a good ration for fattening lambs Pigs will do well on corn alone, for a while, and then they stop growing It lacks some of the growthmaking ilements and needs to be balanced with feeds like milk, buttermilk, tankage and alfalfa With all costs considered, silage can be made at a cost of from 5 to 0 per ton, and it Is worth from 8 to 12 as a stock food Calves which are being fattened during the winter must be well fed to be ready for market in the spring or early summer A bog hole around the water trough Is very

Interesting miracles that the Messiah performed was that in which He accomplished the healing of the boy who was an epileptic It la especially Interesting because the first appeal was to the disciples who wholly failed in their efforts The father of the child was a little weakened In his faith by this failure and when he applied to Jesus for help oe did so with some evidence of doubr as to the results Thjreply of the Messiah was If thou canst believe, all things are pos sible to him that believeth AQ1 when His followers asked Him wtiy they had not been able to perform the healing they ie told that U was their unbelief thatblntfered them Of course this belief was not In tended to have been In themselves 01 in their personal powers but In what Jesus often called to them The Jruth It Is

be a nice name for you, and I think so, too I thought so the moment he spoke of it Now, Julia was a baby zebra, and her mother was a grownup zebra A zebra, as you know, is something like a horse with

GOOD AND EVIL IN LIFE E XPEDIENCE, as the copy books and the preachers have told us is the best teacher But It Is out of the ijuestlon for everybody to go to school to hltn Most of us must learn most of what we know through the experience of Others Just now there is a verj loud and ery general outcry nbout the ten dency of the stage, and of literature to depict the darker side of life What Is the use, say the tlttild, to pick out the evil of life for the stage and for the library, when there la so much good that has never been shown What is the use to teach men and women that disease germs hide In the dust and are carried by the wind to spread Infection to the unwary Experience may come too late to serve as a warning against much of the wickedness of life I do not believe in plays or books that merely pander to evil Instincts And there are many of them which do this, and nothing else But there Is no reason why all of life should not be shown to those who can, by themselves, hope to see but a ery small part of It Why should the welltodo live out their lives never suspecting that there is wretchedness and poverty and oppression in the world MEANING OF SCOT FREE WW By JEAN

if It does not bring to minds which grope In the darkness some of the light which cotild Illuminate them The traveler about to start on a Journey tets all possible information from those who have taken the same journey In life we are all travelers, and we must secure all the aid we can in planning our long and only tour It from books and from the stage we can see life as it Is the knowledge

mysteries mere matter of fact realities, and the evil In them loses its glamor It is as much of a mistake to cod die the minds of young people as it is to coddle their bodies Provided books and plays

here, and perhaps theyll send for two more some time to make the number eleven I really think, though, thai nine Is all right as a number when it means the number of cousins we have here And eleven Is the finest ago to be Two of our babies have been ien to other zoos, whicj is quite fair, 1 suppose We were given something In this zoo In exchange An exchange is fair Even If It means exchanging

Yes said Mother Zebra, a little bird But when 1 say that I say It as people do who1 use that expression When some one knows a nice secret they are apt to say Oh, a little bird told me They mean that

that have been simplified in this little dress This de sign also lends Itself to a great variety of materials A soft Jersey, kasha, challis or flannel would be ap propriate for school In cold weather and if a crepe da chine, flat crepe or radium were used ft would answer for a best frock Sailor Collars Being Added by Dressmakers Several dressmakers of authority are adding miniature sailor collars

Lines Are Not So Much in Favor Square neck lines seem to be less In favor than they were in Paris They have by no mpan disappeared from the collections of exclusive dressmakers but the models baithe

smart cut and military swagger of the capescarf makes it equally suitable for snorts tlrcnes For several years the of poultry husbandry at the New sey agricultural experiment has been hatching part of it horn chicks about midFebruary This was done, first, as as experiment anil in later years because It paid to do so It was found that February hatching of Leghorns for the foUowlsT early fall egg production lengthens the season of incubation by beginning It earlier, thus making better use of Incubation and brooder equipment It also makes use of more egga for Incubation purposes, which ls conceded to , be better practice for poultryimgfcr The early hatched Leghorn tssllf erels, meet of which are surplus, p ready for sale as broilers in April when prices are at their These early broilers help to offset lower prices which usually must be accepted for the same type of broilers that are hatched in April and are not ready for the market until Juneor thereabouts In view of these ad vantages It is believed that poultrymen should matte money on their Februaryhatched surplus ot Leghorn cockerels The Februaryhatched pullets grow almost to laying maturity before hot weather sets in, or are at least beyond the stage In which hot weather materially affects them They areusually ready to lay in August an9 lay well during that month, Septem ber, and part of October anyway Eggs are worth money in that summer period, and as the older hens arefall Ing off in egg production at that time the pullet production helps materially to balance the Income on thepoultry plant These early pullets are likely to molt in late fall, and the rest they get during that process will render them oseful as breeders in the following spring, their first spring as adults The department suggests that about onequarter of the Leghorn flocks might be February hatched The rest can come along in midApril Changing Feed to Hens Lowers Egg Production Many poultry keepers become dissatisfied with the way their hens arelaying and immediately, without trying to figure out the cause, decide tochange to a different kind of feed They may be getting a fair egg production but think they can get a muchbetter one, and therefore they changethe feed There is only pne time when It t safe to rnakj a change In feed, that is a radical one and this is In the spring when all chickens, If they amount to anything at all, will Iffy eggs X change at this time will not have theseriou effects that a change during the fall, winter or summer will have In the first place, choose a good feed, one that has been tried and has given good results Then stick to thia teed If something goes wrong, toofc to the way in which this feed is being fed Dont make any radical change, however, ns birds are very susceptible to any such changes at this stage of their lives Such changes are apt tocause a molt with a consequent drop, in egg production Providing Winter Dust Bath Quite Important During one of the periods of dry Hear weather ,1 supply of dry finegrained soil should be stored in a plan, where it will neither get wet nor freeze severely during the colder months Nothing has been found that quJie takes the phiee of a dust bath for hens Of course, we can rid them of lice by treatment with sodium flourlde, blue ointment or a Commercial louse powder, but these do oof replace the enjoyment that a hen gets in dusting herself in a box of dust or mixture of dust and ashes And the chance fo dnst herself is particularly enjoyed during the winter months Thoroughly dry wellpulverized dirt stored ID a dry building in boxes or barrels or even bags will add greatly to the comfort and contentment of the flock throughout the winter Cut Down Profits Overcrowding and lack of sanitation In a poultry house will cut down the profits in a short time regardless of the quality of the stock So matter how good the quality of your polleta, it will pay better to sell part of them rather than overcrowd the houses 1n an attempt to keep them a over winter Overcrowding pnlfets usually results fn slow growth and lack of weight in the flock and this means a high mortality rate and low eg production Black

WashingtonAgriculture, as sized tip by government experts, had a fairly good year In the chief producing regions with the exception of the central and eastern part of the corn and hog region The Department of Agriculture In its final report of the agricultural sit uation for the year said 1927 brought a measure of recovery to the cotton belt, but much of the central and eastern sections of the corn and hog region had a poor crop of corn, which, coupled with a slump In hog prices, left the past season a disappointing one The swine Industry, said the department, was hit last spring by a market slump, especially in the European market, and continued throughout the season on a level of prices somewhat below the two prerious years The other livestock In dustries have fared relatively well All told, 1027 was a year of well balanced production It brought the price level of farm products last fall up near that of two years ago which was the highest since 1020 The total value of about

PINCKNEY DISPATCH MOON RAISES HIGHER TIDES THAN THE SUN Distance Is Chief Factor in Reducing Sols Pull GRIEF OF MOTHER STARTS INDUSTRY 5e Washington Aiihuuh is the chief factor in Takes Up Weaving and Town Is Now Famous the moon creutiri tides, the sun also njukis iLsHf feit noticeably in jilin up ,u utvanjj vvaters, says a bulletin from he Washington headquarters of the National Geo feTuphir society iut the sun is n niendousty greater than the moon mure thun 27,000, 0A times as iure uliy does ir play a subordinate part to the little moon in tide production Distance is one answer, but It Is not the whole answer If the sun were as close to ilie earth as the moon Is It would pull the earth and its vatem some 17,000,000 times as hard us the moon does Hut since distance Is such a fcreat reducer of gravitation the suns pull on the earth Is roughly only IS times that of the moon Hut the question persists, why does the moon produce the higher tides wiien the sun pulls on the earth 1S3 times as strongly The total pull of a body on another, and its thleproduclng force are not the same The tide on the earth results frum the difference between the pulls on the center of the earth and on the near and far sides These are the pulls that tend to separate the waters and the eurth, and therefore to pile the waters up And It will be seen on close thought that two weak forces that are considerably different, operating one on the earth and one on the waters, can cause a greater sepa ration than two very strong forces that are nearly equal Weakened by Distance Light and gravitation act somewhat alike in that each grows weaker as the source of light or gravitational pull is moved father and farther away, and that both grow weaker very rapidlyIn proportion to the distance of the source multiplied by itself The differences in gravitational pull on which tides depend can be visualized, therefore, by an experi ment with light Turn on an electric desk light or other single bulb and hold near It a sheet of ordinary white paper Hold the paper with one edge toward the light and only two or three Indies away and turn It very slightly so that the light shines along the sheet and illuminates Its whole surface There will be a noticeable difference between the brightness of the light at a point near the close edge and at a point near the far e ge Now hold the paper in the same way at a distance of ten or twelve feet from an even brighter light, or hold It in the daytime at such a distance from a bright window You know that there is still a difference in the degree of illumination of the two sides, but It is so very tiny that you cannot detect it The two points on which the sun pulls to make the near tidethe sur face of the ocean nearest the moon and the earths centerare 4000 miles apart, and this 410 miles Is a tiny fraction of the earthsun distance, a little over fourone hundred thou sandths In the case of the moon this same 4,000 miles is a relatively large fraction of the earth moon distance lCGfl one hundred thousandths When all the values for distance and mass are inserted in the rather formidable equations for the pulls of the moon at the center of the earth and at the surface, and for the pulls of the sun at these two points, it works out that the difference in the moons pulls are roughly 2 time the difference in the suns pulls The moon, therefore, exerts 2 times the tideproducing power exerted by the sun What Make Highest Tides Most of the time the sun and moon are pulling in different direc tions But twice each month they pull in the same line It is then that our coasts have their highest tides Theoretically every star and planet and satellite in the universe raises its separate tide in our oceans Actually, however, even Jnpfter, the greatest of our sister planets Is so far away and relatively so small, that its influ ence cannot be detected To all In tents, therefore, it may be said tiiat only the moon and the sun, our nearest and our most iwerfut nefghbors In space, have a share in making the earths tide Ueiriz, PortugalA brokenhearted mother is responsible for bringing n entirely new industry to this remote

peiaon gas, seeping op through assures in the earth into caves, U fre quently the cause of the death of birds and small mammals in YellowStone National park, and Park Naturalist B J Sawyer is attempting to find out why the luckless little victims venture into these deadly traps Be is disinclined to believe the theory moat commonly advanced tfaut the birds go into the caves for shelter as cold weather comes on In the fail Impelled by Restlessness It la my present belief that, in general, the bird victims are not particularly attracted by anything at ait, hot that in the restlessness characteristic of their spring and autumn movements they venture into all manner of accessible places and are then overcome by the gas The species affected are small perching birds of various kinds, such as sparrows, warblers, wrens and thrushes nor has It been observed that any species or grovp of these pays a toll oat of proportion to Its relative general s Otslre for warmth Is not iction seems further infeqr fte fact that the TownsSiitaire is so frequently found in the caves This bird, an allyear resident in the park and appar ently unaffected by even the extreme cold of midwinter, would scarcely be impelled to seek extraordinary warmth In spring and fall Confined to Smaller Birds One of the most abundant species of small birds in this region is the Clark crow, or nutcracker, yet I have seldom If ever found a Clark crow in the poison caves, and yet it would seem a comparatively short step from bis ordinary habits for the nutcracker to enter one of these shallow caverns not so pronounced a departure from routine as It is in the case of the treeloving warblers, which are among the most frequent victims It Is my belief that the nutcracker does enter the caves, but, owing t his greater size and greater power of resistance, emerges with Impunity though doubtless, in each case, an older and a wiser bird Indeed, so far as my frequent observations go, It Is a rare thing to find any hird larger than the small thrushes that has succumbed to the gas Relic of Washingtons Found in Old Box Adderbury West, Englandft an old box of parchments purchased for a shilling T J Bennett

His friends believe that, by keeping that Issue in the background, he may be found to be a good compromise candidate in case Al Smith encounters as large and determined an opposition as he did In 1924 With the exception of this Reed boom and the Heflln outbursts Jn the aenate the progress of Al Smith toward the nomination seems not seriously impeded, His supporters jjrow more confident daily, and

the area about the Panama and Nicaragua canal routes that we will not let the PanAmerican union be made Into a political institution, and thnt we will enter no international combination that claims a

Hudson bay to the Atlantic and there fore of the new Hudson Bay ralhvaj trade with Europe, have been discovered by 8 Canadian government aerial survey party during the last tiree months Hitherto it has been claimed thai the straits were not open for navigation for more than three months in the year Some authorities placed the period at one monthlate August and early September Two months was generally accepted as about the limit The most favorable estimates never placed the closing date for navigation later than midOctober Yet October 15, 1927, In the straits, dawned fair and warm Airmen climbed iuto their machines and soared out over the lonely Arctic waters No Ice was lu sight Not only were the straits free of It, but none could be discerned In the southern reaches of Fox channel November came and still there were no signs of Ice Tie weeks passed and late In November a patrol north ward into Fox channel returned with the Information that an ice pan wus slowly drifting southward Not till the first week in December did It reach the straits By December IU the airman jreporjed that a huge Ice pan blocked the western entrunce to the straits, stretching from Notting ham Island to the coust of Labrador Straits Never Freeze It Is believed the straits never freeze over The current Is too fast However, each autumn, Ice drifts down from Pox channel Into the western end of the straits and throughthe straits, to the Atlantic Green, tough Arctic ice, which the summer sun could not melt, but oniy reduce to great irregular chunks Vast fields of this ice drift Into the straits The straits, however, are from oO to 100 miles in width and the range or virion of a man on board ship does not exceed 12 miles Hence the gov ernment has thought It possible thai there might be open water In the straits the year around if a ships captain knew where to find It That Is a question yet to be determined But whether an open chan nel through the winter exists or not, the fact was established that this year the straits were Iree of Ice until December 10 Navigation in Hudixm straits In VJ21 was open as long as it was on the Great Lakes Unless 11127 proves to have been an exceptional year this tact will revolutionize opinion respect ing the possibilities of the Hudson bay traffic route The aerial survey party has estah llshed three basxes, at Nottingham island at the Hudson bay end of the straits, at Wakeham bay midway through, and at Cape Burwell on the Atlantic The distance from Notting ham Island to Cape Burwell, that is, the lengthof the straits, Is 450 miles Linked by Wireless The expedition left Sydney, JN S, July 15 last, arrived In the straits In September, had its bases established and was ready for flying October 15 It Is In almost dally communication with Ottawa by low wave wireless Since October 15 the straits have been under daily observation of these pilots, aloft In their cockpits Air patrols have been carried out In three dlrec tlons from each baseeast, north and west, so that an area 100 miles wide and 1,000 miles long has been flown over almost every day The greatest dangers they have reported come from the granite cliffs which form the shores of the straits They rise hundreds of feet In fair weather they are not dangerous but In a fog they are a serious menace Woe to the flyer who misjudges their position The Hudson Bay railway, It Is expected, will be complete by 1921 The Hudson straits aerial survey will remain at work until the spring of that year, by which time It will have com piled detailed Information respecting conditions on Hudson straits that will facilitate the new stream of navigation expected to develop Quite possibly a permanent air patrol will be maintained to reduce the hazards of this

Christian and pagan elements It derives its name from an early Christian martyrtwo of them, gay some historiansbut its observance comes straight from the ancient Romans, who not only were not Christians but who showed what they thought of Christianity by their playful habit of feeding targe numbers of that religious sect to the lions The first St Valentine was one of hese early Christian martyrs, although his martyrdom was not via the lion route During the reign of the Emperor Claudius a certain Bishop Valntlnus wns brought before the em peror and the high priest, Calphurnius, charged with a series of high crimes against the Homan gods When faced ty his accusers, the bishop started to make a plea for the Christian cause, tout he was silenced and hurried away to Asturius, noted as the severest of Ilomun judges and one who had a par ticular hatred of Christians, to be tried and sentenced Meanwhile the emperor sent a secret message to Asturius commanding him to use every means possible to win Vnlentlnus hack to the native gods and to try to save his life When the bishop was questioned by Asturius and found tu be linn In his adherence to the new religion, the Roman exclaimed, If your Ciod is Indeed the light of the world, let Him prove His divine power hy restoring sight to my blind daughter Briny her to me, answered Valentinus, and when the blind girl was brought before him he laid his hands upon her head and prayed aloud for the restoration of her sight Then, so runs the legend, her sight was Indeed restored, and Asturius was EX imliressed by this miracle that he and all of his household forswore their pagan gods and were baptized Into the Christian faith by Volentinus Valentimu Martyrdom When the emperor heard of this, be was furious, not only at the bishop but also at his greatest noble who had thus deserted him He Immediately ordered Asturius and nil of his family Imprisoned and the Christian bishop first to be beaten in public and then beheaded What happened to Asturius or his family, history does not record, but in the case of the bishop, the emperors orders were carried out Be suffered flagellation and was executed on the Plammian Way leading from Rome to Arrimlnluro on the Adriatic sea The year in which this took place is in dispute At least three dates27W A D, 278 A D and 30G A Dare variously given, but It Is certain that the execution took place on u day corresponding to our February 14 At any rate, the martyrdom of Valentinus, the bishop, made him St Valentine and his remains are enshrined in the church of St Iraxedes In Rome A gate in Rome was fllpo named after him, Porta Valentin, but It was later changed to Iorta del Popolo Although Bishop Valentinus was the original St Valentine there was another bishop who bore that name He was from Literamma, he was also a bishop and a martyr and performed many miracles before he was exe cuted, But beyond that, little seems to be known of his career and certainly nothing In the lives of either Saint Valentine would seem to have given rise to the frivolom celebrations of the day dedfcated to these two saints Significance Lost For the religious significance of St Valentines day has been entirelyJost and the celebration of the anniversary as we know it comes from the ancient Roman feast of Lupercalia one of the special features of which was what was called the lottery of love In the lottery of love the names of young women were placed in a box or some other receptacle from which they were drawn by young men who thereupon became their sweethearts for the following year How this pagan custom came to be associated with the day dedicated to a Christian saint Is explained by an early writer as follows It waB the practice in ancient Rome, during a great part of the month of February, to celebrate the Lupercalia, which were fasts U , honor of Pan and Juno, whence the latter deity was named Februata, Februalls and Februlla On thhj occasion amidst a variety of ceremonies, the names of the young women were put In a box from which they wr drawn by the men as chance directed The pastors of the early Christian church, who, by every possible means, endeavored to eradicate the vestiges of pagan superstitions, and chiefly by some commutations of their forms, substituted, in the present Instance, the names of particular saints Instead of those of the women and as the festival of Lupercalia had commenced about the middle of February they appear to have chosen St Valentines day for celebrating the new feast, because It occurred nearly at the aame time It would seem, however, that It was utter ly Impossible to extirpate altogether any ceremony to which the common people had been much accustomeda fact which It were easy to prove In tracing the orlgtn of various other popular superstitions And, accordingly, the outline of the ancient ceremonies was preserved, but modified hy some adaptation to the Christian system It 19 reasonable to suppose that the above practice of choosing mates would grad ually become reciprocal In the sexes and that all persons so chosen would be called Valentines, from the day on which the ceremony took place There is one other touch which needs to be added to the St Vahn fines tradition to make this strange composite complete Among the an cients it was popularly believed I hat the mating seuson of bird began in the middle of February and from that grew the legend of February 14 as the exact date So St Valentines day is a combination of a natural phenomena, the pagan Roman lottery of love and the anniversary of the death of a Christian martyr Jufct when the celebration of St Valentines day turned in the direction of sending valentines is unknown The common tradition is that the tirst poetical valentines were those penned hy Charles, Duke of Orleans, grandson of Charles V of France and father of Louis XII He was tuken prisoner at the battle of A gin court in 141 and was kept a prisoner in the Tower of London for 25 years before he was finally ransomed for 300,000 crowns Who his ladylove was to whom GO love pocins were written while there is not recorded but nil of them are now preserved in a large volume In the British museum Business and Sentiment A curious mixing of business and sentiment in the observance of St Valentines day is recorded in the fact that during the 27th year of the reign of Henry VII1 of England, that mon arch granted a charter to the city of Lynn setting apart St Valentines day as the date of the opening of the an nual market when the housewives of Lynn bought their dry goods, provisions and other supplies for the season In that part of Kngland Feb ruary 14 became known as Valentine Market day and berihboned valentines were sold from stalls and on the street In so far as Henry VIII had something of a reputation as being a great lover it is singularly appropriate that he should June been the one who should forward the wider observance of this day devoted to love making But it remained for another great lover, Charles II, to bring the observance of St Valentines day to it zenith During his reign It was not only customary for lovers to send ardent messages to their maidens fair but also expensive gifts as well It Is said that the most expensive gift presented during this period was that of tlie duke of York to the famous Miss Stuart, who later became the duchess of Richmond It was u jewel valued at ,000 At lea Ft we have the word of that most celebrated of all diarists, Samuel Pepys, for it for he, having noticed the jewels of Miss Stuart, recorded that The duke of York, being once her valentine, did give her a jewel of about 800 and my Lord Mandeville, her valentine this year, a ring of about 300

one erf the greatest collections of literature in the world today, is soon to be completely recataloged under the direction of Dr William Warner Bishop, librarian of the University of Michigan, The modernizing of this trem endous collection of books and m inuBcripts, one of the worlds largest and mot valuable libraries, is expected to prove of great benefit to scholars all over the world The cost of the work is being met by the Carnegie Endowment for In ternational Peace and Dr Nicholas Murray Butler, president of the Endowment, visited Rome early in the summer to conclude plans of action Di4 Bishop went to Rome last June to study the situation At the same time Msgr Tisserant, assistant librar ian of the Vatican, came to the United States to study the library systems of Harvard, Columbia, Princeton, Michigan and Chicago Universities and the Library of Congress at Washington Shortly afterward four members oi the Vatican Library staff were ap pointed to spend the next academic year in the United States, studying library organization and methods Two of these will,in all likelihood, work under the staff of the Congressional Library and the other two will follow the advanced instruction in library work offered by tho School of Library Service at Columbia University The present index of the Vatican Library consists of 658 huge tomes, compiled over a period of many centuries This index is obscure and complicated and the reindexing of the collection is expected to bring to light archives which have escaped the attention of scholars for many years LOST A pipe
