One by one old traditions and fixed
beliefs pass away. A young Massachu-
sets doctor had a theory that a man
need not be obliged TO die even though
his neck was broken. Unfortunately,
however, for many years no man broke
his neck in the doctors neighborhood
and he had no opportunity to try
whether his theory would work. Light
ming generally strikes at last, however,
and one day man obligingly fell out of
a carriage and dislocated his neck, just
as the doctor was riding by. The doc
tors idea was that the person with the
broken neck could be rescued from
death if the dislocated vertebre could
be forced back into place before the pa
tent was strangled by pressure upon the
spinal cord. Accordingly he instantly
began to operate on this case that Provi-
dence had sent to him. He placed one
hand each sideof the patients head, at the
same time moving it gently and care
fully from side to side. Presently he gave
the neck a strong pull, and a snap was
heard. That was the process of setting
dislocated neck. The patient recov-
cred consciousness almost Immediately
There were some slight breaks in the
vertabr@ as well, but these were re
placed much the same as a surgeon
would replace the bones in a broken leg.
The patient was then carefully nursed
for three months, at the end Of which
time he was entirely well, to all appear
ance. This is perhaps the most remark
able case of surgery on record.

Growth of Our Export Trade

In calling attention to the fact that
the United States is now doing good
share of the work of feeding Europe, The
Rural New Yorker reminds it's readers
that the early settlers of Connecticut be-
ing once in danger of famine sent up to
the Indians of Massachusetts for relief.
The red men thereupon sold them fifty
canoe loads of corn and saved the settle
ment from being broken up. In 1890 the
United States exported to Europe $780,
$50, 900 worth of corn and cornmeal. In
1926 we sent to Europe S25, 900, 900 worth
of cotton. No doubt the commercial re
porters of 1926 thought this was great
country then, and wondered how much
larger the exports would become. If
they were living now they would find
that in 1890 our export of cotton amount
ed to $237. 775, 600 And we who write
now wonder how much larger it will be.
OF the changes since 1926 in other lines
of export. The Rural New Yorker re
marks:
In 1898 about six-sevenths Of the exports were
carried In American vessels. In 1880 with q
total export trade Of S730. 2s2 900, only SsO.9l9
7gl worth went in American ships. This
growth Of the exports of meat, butter, cheese
and breadstufs has been wonderful. II scent
that sixty-four years ago we exported more
horses. but they were not worth half so much
exports Of rice were also larger. There i
every prospect that exports of food products
will still continue to increase though theii
character is slowly changing. A greater pro
portion hereafter will be In the form Of manu-
featured products, like aour. meal hams anC
canned goods and less in crude grains ane
other products. To handle the vast frcigh
and passenger business of the country Their
were in 1882 l57.7 59 miles Of railroad. with %.
036 locomotives and l,O97 sol cars. and a work
ing force Of 704.7t3 persons.

Commenting ON the opinion eX-
pressed at Spokane few days ago by
President Hill, of the Great Northern,
that the railroads would do the trans
continental carrying business, even if
the Nicaraguan canal were built, and
hence it would make no difference
whether the canal were built or not,
the Oregonian says:
"Mr. Hill has many original ideas about
railroading, and to less degree than any
other railroad man follows in the old
ruts; but upon this matter of supersedure
of water transport by rail when time is
not the main element and cheapneSs is
chiefly to be considered, the experience of
the world thus far is so strongly against
his position that there seems small prob
ability that he will prove to be correct
in his forecasts"

The companies of the railways which
terminate in Chicago are considering
the question of applying the system of
fixing rates by zones. Chicago will be
the center of six concentric circles, the
first of which will have radius of so
kilOmeters, the second 100, and the fol-
lowing ones with radii increasing by
100 kilometers from one circle to
another. Every traveller going at least
80 kilometers will have a reduction of
10 per cent, which will increase with
successive zones until it reaches 90 per
cent.

this it will also enter on an active ''im-

Women who Kick and Throw.


Awkward beauty wakens the pity of
gods and men" says Shirley Dare. She
has even known instances in which men,
weak creatures, have deserted waddling
beauty for less perfection of form and
feature and more grace of movement.
This grace of movement can be attained
by any person of either sex. The most
awkward lads in the country are among
those sent TO West Point, some of them
being round shouldered, handy legged
and slab sided, painfully slouching in
their gait, Yet in year or two these
same boys come out erect, graceful, with
fat back and straight limbs 1t is the
hours spent with the drillmaster that
work the change. They are better than
any surgical appliances for curing de-
formities.
Shirley Dare would have exactly the
same drill for girls, and mentions that
in England a drillmaster is a regular
attachment to the girls school. 1t must
be said, however that strictly between
ourselves some Englishwomen are hard
ly triumphs of grace in the matter Of
walking and moving Fanny Kemble
/ however, one of the strongest, most
graceful women of the century, attribu-
ted her physical perfection to the drill
sergeant of the Royal Foot Guards.
In addition TO being drilled, as the
awkward squads among recruits are,
this energetic writer strongly urges that
all girls should learn to kick and throw.
The movements involved in these exer-
cises hberate more fastbound muscles
and impart more grace of motion than
any others. The woman who can hurl
her foot in front of her and throw it on
a level with her head in a good square
kick can never be awkward, even if she
is shy. Moreover, the muscles used in
such kicking are exactly the ones whose
strength and mobility will give her
health, and preserve it too.

HARBOR nIPRO VEMENT

1t appears that an effort is being
made at Washington to secure a gov
eminent appropriation to divert the
waters of the Nooksack river from Bell
ingham bay to the Gulf Of Georgia for
the alleged reason that the harbor is
being seriously damaged by immense
quantities of sand, alluvlal deposits and
driftwood, which are gradually filling
up the bottom of the harbor and
greatly injuring its usefulness for pur-
i}oses of navigation" The petition de-
clares that.
"Orlginally this river emptied into the
Gulf Of Georgia, but some thirty or forty
years ago a deposit of driftwood created
a Jam, which turned the river into its
present channel, which empties into Bell
ingham bay, and the people of that sec
ton Of the country and residing on the
shores of Bellngham bay are very
anxious that the waters Of that river
should be restored to the original chan
mel and are willing, the approval Of the
secretary of war being first obtained, to
do this work at their own expense if the
general government shall deem it inexpe-
dent to make an appropriation for that
purpose. The chief purpose of the ap-
preparation asked for, however, is TO
dredge a channel in the bay from deep
water TO the wharves of the city of New
Whatcom, so that these wharves may be
made accessible to ocean vessels, not be-
ing so at present.
To Judge from the above there is a
very urgent demand on the part of the
people of this vicinity that the water
of the Noolzsack be diverted from theil
present channel. As a matter of fact
however, there is no such demand, MOI
can it be truly said that the desire fol
such a change is by any means general
The Nooksack is not large stream
and its mouth is several miles distant
from the nearest New Whatcom wharf
The alluvial sediment annually washed
into the bay by the current of the rive
would not be sufficient in a century t
result in material injury to the harbor
if nothing whatever was done to pre-
vent it. On TIE other hand the fresl
water from the river is a great preserva
tive, distributed, as it is, by the wind
and currents for miles around the har
Dor strip, protecting the piling of tn
wharves from the ravages of the de
structive teredO. In the opinion o
men who have given the subject care
full study this advantage far more thai
counterbalances the slight injury whicl
may result from sedimentaIy filling
so far as the latter part of the PROPOSE
ton is concerned it is not likely to en-
counter any other opposition than tn
picayunIsh policy of the present FIVE
cent congress, which frOwns upon a
requests for appropriations which ster
necessity does not seem to demand.

Today the Republican county central
committe will meet i'm New Whatcom
to determine the representation to
which the various precincts Of the
county shall be entitled in the conven-
ton to be held next month for the
election of nine delegates to represent
the county at the state convention for
the election of eight delegates to the
presidential convention to be held at
Minneapolis i'm June. It is rumored
that some members of the county com
mittee are inclined to favor the wishes
of some of their particular friends
who have axes to grind that
the apportionment in New Whatcom

There would be no justice in such a
segregation. 1t is too much after the
pocket borough plan and ought not to
be tolerated by the Republican party
