BIG GUN EXPLODES
Government Gu: Some Money, but
 No One Was Injured

New Yoik-One of the mammoth guns exploded at the far end of the proving grounds at Sandy Hook Thurs day. Before the explosion the gun was valued at S40,o00. Tie big gun, which was not a great distance from the sixteen-inch gun tested last week. has gone through every trial of the or dinance board successfully and was soon to have been placed in it's carriage on the site chosen for it. It was wrecked in the course of explosives under conditions that might have hap pened in actual engagements, but which are spoken of by officers as ab- normal. No one was killed because of the elaborate precautions for the safety of visitors, officers and men.

wNnr is Happiness

Happiness is the greatest 0drHdox n uature 1t can grow in any soil. live under any conditions. IL defies env,- ronment. It comes from within. It is the revelation of the depths of the in ner life as light and heat proclaim tho sun from which they radiate. Happ!- ness consists not of having, but of be- ing; not of possessing, but of enjoying It is the warm glow of heart at peace within itself. A martyr at the stake may have happiness that king on his throne might envy. Man is the creator of his own happiness. It is the aroma of life lived in harmony with high ideals For what a man has he may be dependent on others; what he is rests with him alone. What he obtains in life is but acquisition; what he at- tatns Is growth. Happiness Is the souls joy in the possession of the intangible. William George Jordan.

RECLAMATION OF HIGH PLAINS
Geological Survey Searches For Water
 to Make Them Habitable

The efforts of the Photographic branch of the United States Geological Survey are being directed to the dis covery of sufficient water to lead to the reclamation and habtaton of that area of the Great Plains lying west of the praires and east ot the Rocky Mountains, commonly known as the High Plains. The section is admir- ably suited to agricplt Lure and grazing except for it's inadequate water supply, which is so uncertain that great areas of fertile land lie quite uninhabited. This is especially true of the regions lying between the river valleys which cross it at wide intervals. These broad intervalley plateaus are practically waterless, but it has been discovered that water may be had from under ground sources by wells and windmills, and it has been demonstrated that, while the region may not be largely reclaimablc by irrigation, it may be successfully used for grazing by creat- ing stock watering points at compara- lively close intervals. It will, how ever, be difficult, if not impossible, for the grazers to raise anything besides fodder cane of the drought-resisting varieties, such as Kaffir corn. Nege- tables and other products will, for the most part, probably have to be grown elsewhere. The river valleys, on the other hand, seem destined to be ex- tensively cultivated by irriagtion, the water for which will be pumped from the gravels of the river beds. where an underflow has been known to con. tinue in the summer season after the rivers themselves have ceased to run. These areas will furnish garden pro- duce for the ranches on the plateau, and in this manner make the regi on as a whole habtable. The details of this investigation, with exhaustive studies of the nature of the underground waters of the High Plains, appear in the Twenty first and TEenty-second Annual Reports of the United States Geological Survey, the latter of which is now in press and will soon be is- sued.
