Better Than We Know How.

Doing as well as we know how is or
dinarily considered pretty creditable per-
Torrance. One who can honestly say that
he has done as well as he knows how
is likely to take credit to himself for his
doing; and, in passing Judgment on an
other for his conduct, we are inclined to
commend him if he, or if we, can say that
he has done as well as he knows how. let
Just here is a common mistake OF man
kind. All of us ought to do better than
we know how. Doing only as well as we
know how may be a lack and failure on
our part.
Doing better than one knows how, do
ing better than ones best, is the duty and
the practical attainment of every person
who wants to fill his place in the world
and to help his fellows as he should. One
who expects to be limited, in his work
and i'm his endeavors, by the best that he
has done, or by the best that others have
done, or by what he can do, is practically
without the noblest ambition, and certain
ly without the highest aspirations. 10

better than one knows how. Every great
explorer and discoverer and inventor and
pioneer and master missionary, IN all
lands and on all seas and in all the. ages,
has secured to the world and to his tel
lows results and advantages OF priceless
value. and has proved himself benefac,,
tor of his race, because he was not limited
bv precedents and possibilities, but was
determined to do better than his best,
better than he knew how.

The Missouri Pumpkin Pie.

If there is anything in the cooking of
which the Missouri farmers wife ex-
cells it is pumpkin pies. AL incident
at the Skidmore "punkin show" last
week indicates that the oncoming gen.
Grafton of farmers wives will be fully
equal to their mothers in this impor-
tant particular. w. j. Skidmore, Skid
more's leading citizen, offered a prize
to the country maiden who should
make the best pumpkin pie, he to be
the judge. Six pies. were exhibited.
When Mr.. Skidmore took bite of the
first, he mentally decided that it would
take the prize. When he bit the Sec
ont he decided the prize should have
to be halved. When he bit the third
he concluded the prize would have to
be divided into three parts. The up
shot was that Mr.. Skidmore was not
able to make a selection. Instead,
however. of dividing the prize into six
parts, he ruled that each was so good
as to deserve a prize, and so he gave
six prizes instead of one. Even the
New England mince pie has to go way
back and sit down when the Missouri
pumpkin pie marches upon the table,

A New Idea-The Museum of Security

The city of Amsterdam, in Holland,
has originated an idea which is at
tracing the attention Of other coun-
tries. 1t is called Museum of Secur-
ity, and consists of an exhibition OF all
manner of inventions that will protect
the lives of men and women in their
daily work.
This museum began it's work in a
simple way about ten years ago. When
it first opened its doors to the public
it had only fifty machines and inven-
lions on exhibition. Today it has hun
dreds.
It shows, for instance, how to make
scaffolding that will be safe, how to
handle acids without being burned
how to protect eyes from dust, how to
make machinery safe, etc. One sim
pie safety device which it advocates is
to paint bright red every dangerous
part of machine.
The museum is free four days a
week. 1t is in charge of a skilled en-
gineer. Last year the city of Toron-
to, Canada, sent it's chief factory in
spector to the Amsterdam museum,
and gave him $1,000 to buy models of
the various safety devices.
The necessity for such Museum of
Security in the United States is shown
by the fact that 100000 accidents
occur here every year, killing 10000
working people and manning $4,000
others. A movement to start such an
institution has been begun by DR.. VIM.

New Tuber.

M Heckel, director of the Colonial
institute of Marseilles, gives interest
ing information about NV potato
known as the "Commerson" or aquatic
potato of Uruguay. 1t has beed grown
of late years in France, and the advan-
tages of it are that it can be cultivated
in low and marshy ground, that frost
does not hurt it, and that successive
crops can be got from the same roots
left in the soil.
Moreover, the foliage is eatable, and
plucking of the foliage does not seem
to diminish the number of tubers
The potatoes are slightly bitter, but
culture is removing this fault.

TWENTY THOUSAND YEARS AGO.
Fireplaees and Trepanned Skulls and
the Oriuinal Cannibal.

In an article in your paper mention
Is made of "a fireplace 10000 years
old" in the upper Mississippi Valley
and of "relics maybe of $4,000 years
possibly the Oldest traces Of humans
on this globe"
VIII you permit me to observe that
while the lOess Of the Mississippi Val
ley basin, according to Chamberlain
and Salisbury, American Journal OF
Science, overlies the glacial drift, and
farthest north, has relations with the
first glacial deposits, yet this circum-
stance by no means proves that fire.
place there could have been 10000
years old, nor that relics trace $4,000
years backward mans occupation of
this continent.
Glacial rotations of the earth occur
in circle occupying 1852 years. The
height Of the last one occurred 1880
years before Christ. The earth will en-
ter on the next glacial period $500
A. d. and attain its greatest severity
1876 A. D. The glacial periods occupy
about 10000 years.
The last one terminated about 5000
years ago. Palaeolithic man on this
hemisphere probably arrived in post
glacial times, that is, at most 5000
years before Christ The indications
on trepanned skulls, custom which
belonged to him before the time Of
neolithic dolmens in ancient France
and the southern Mediterranean shore,
for it was Widespread in neolithic
times, would imply that this palace
thic man Ice Age of Europe) had i'm
migrated to America while the land
route by way of the Canary and West
Indian Islands was above water and
when he was a cannibal, before he
had evolved enough religion to bury
his dead. For the earliest use made
of trepannation was to obtain the
brain of an enemy for food purposes,
Afterward it took on a therapeutic as
pect, then therapeutic-religio char
acter.
The testimonials of ancient skulls
and long bones of Florida, Patagonia
and the mounds of Iowa and the upper
Mississippi basin prove that ancient
man of the hemisphere was canni-
bal. In my contributions to palace
American medicine 'Palaeo-European
and Palaeo-American Preparations
and Their Meaning"), have studied
this very question most thoroughly.
The trepanned skulls of the world are
there considered. Man ate animal
flesh raw long before he discovered
fire in the late palaeolithic or neolithic
times, long before the sun melted
snow, long before the time of valleys
and river drifts. Fireplaces in the
upper Mississippi basin, indicated
cooking of food, canot show such an
tiquity of him.
Original man came even with hair
on his body like an animal, before it
was necessary to use another ami
mails skin as a covering, before he
had evolved into glabrous being.
This is shown by a study of tattooing
practices of most ancient times.-Al-

WAKE WILL BE THERE.
Wake County Board of Education Alive
10 Importance OF Teachers Assembly.

The Executive Committee OF the North
Carolina Teachers Assembly has decided
that the annual meeting OF the assembly
will be held this year at Morehead CITY
during the week beginning June Sth.
One of the best programmes in the his
tory Of the assembly is being arranged.
Special attention will be given to the
country schools ard the problems OF the
teachers in those schools. 1t is probable
that State Superintendent w. w. Stetson,
of Maine. will be present during the en-
tire meeting; and t. come in contact with
this wise and enthusiastic school man
will be well worth the trip to Morehead.
He will be very helpful to all, but espe-
cialy to those interested in the rural
schools. Governor Aycock will attend the
meeting and address the assembly. Prom
inent men from outside the State will be
present. Those will be announced later.
Dr.. J. 3. Carlyle, Of Wake Forest Col
lege. is president, Prof j. I. F'oust OF the
Normal and Industrial College is first
vice-pyesident, and Prof. w. d. Carmich-
ael of the Durham public schools is sec
retary and treasurer. The local commit
tee for Wake county is composed OF Thos.
Johns, j. l.. Foster and w. G. Clements.
The officers are working hard to plan
successful meeting. There is more than
usual interest manifested already over
the State, and it seems now that the at
tendance on the assembly will be the lar
gest in years
A teacher can i'll afford to miss this
meeting as it will be one of the most
important sessions of the assembly held in
years.
We hope that every teacher in Wake
county will attend this year if possible.
