WHERE THE HUDSON ONCE Fan.
Geological Survey Preparing an Exhibits
70 Show the Rivers Early Course.

Geological Survey Preparing an Exhibit
70 Show the Rivers Early Course.
By the time Of the celebration Of the
sooth anniversary Of the discovery Of the
Hudson River the United States Geological
Survey will have prepared a set Of charts
and geological specimens to show the early
history Of the Hudson River.
One point which they will demonstrate
is that the Hudson once had twin channels!
one. the smaller, where the river now
flows, and the other, or greater channel,
running from point just above Piermont,
At the head Of the Palisades, due south to
the sea.
Students Of glacial history have known
that New York State was for hundreds,
perhaps thousands, Of years buried under
Here and there whore the Ice had been
weakened by the solar warmth, the cap
became thinned and the edge was irreRu lar
and broken. This was the early condition
OF a section Of the ice wedge which frat
crossed the solid traprock hills Of RocklAnd
ing mass picking UP and bearing south
ward tons Of loose boulders and sandstone.
There 70 evidence that the ice wedge
struck the sandstone bills In the neighbor-
hood OF Piermont and was detected south
deep waterways then flowing southwark
between the Palisades and the Jersey
highlands around Hackensao Ok and to the
west.
Skirting the Palisades billions OF tons OF
stone and Ice were for centuries working
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES the line OF least
resistance-toward Newark Bay, filing up
tho valley en- route with pulverized debris
Of trap, sandstone, pebbles and dirt.
Prior to the DETECTION ages and ages ago
the western river channel was a majestic
Rtroam beside which the eastern channel
was a mere rlvulet. The river was from
three TO five leagues in width and swept
In q mighty, flood over the Hackensack
meadows to join the ocean in the region Of
Staten Island.
While It Ia believed that the present chan
mel Of the river was In existence at the same
time. there is reason to believe that had
the great western channel not been filled
with the debris the eastern channel would
eventually have dried up Thus an island
thirty miles long and dozen miles wide
would to-day be the site Of New York,
Jersey City, Hoboken. Englewood and
Plermont.
Having, a. the geological explorers have
reason TO believe. efectually closed the
mouth OF the western river channel around
what 10 now known es Piermont, or be-
tween Piermont and Nyack, giant splinter
Of the greater wedge broke oil and ground
its way along the east face Of the Palisades.
II 10 also believed to have considerably
deepened the eastern river channel. in fact,
to have increased the size Of the channel
from . sort OF brawling torrent or brook
70 its present proportions.

CLOTHESPINS.

Must He Made by One Machine When
They're Ten for Cent
while mover doubted" said Mr. Cos
lington. that story about driving pig into
one end Of a machine to come out at the
other In the shape Of hams, spareribs and
sausages all ready for market, and with the
bristles all done up. besides, ready to sell
to the brushmaker I had been somew hat
incre dulous about that other story Of modern
methods which says that they simply put a
piece OF log into one end OF machine to
come out at the other clothespins, all COM
plete and counted out and boxed.
story now, since We bought this morning
fifty clothespins for nickel-ten for cent
The clothespin machine story must be a.
true % the story Of the pig machine-in
fact guess it's truer."

Miss Molly's nose ~ had tilt
Extremely feminine:
II was not like her tilt with John.
Whose nose was aQuilinc.
Her nose she turned up higher. then
Her face assumed a frown.
And even more than his queer nose
Was hapless John turned down.

When | Was a Boy.

Up n the attic where 7 s'eDt,
When I was 10y, a lite boy.
In through the lattice the Moonlight crept
Bringing tide of dreams that swept
Over a low, red trundle bed
Bathing the tangled. curly head.
While the moonbeams played at hide and seek
With the dimples on the sun-browned check
When was a hoy, little boy!
And OH the dreams-the deans I dreamed!
When was boy, little boy!
For the grace that through tire lattice st eaned
over my folded eye'ids seemed
To have the gift of prophecy
And to bring the g ir0Tsos Of TING TO lie.
When manhcod's clarion SEEM ed TO. cal'-E...
All! that was the sweetest dream of ALL
When I was boy, little 10y!
I'd like to SLEEP where 1 used to sleep.
When I was a hov, a little boy!
For in at the lattice the mron would Peep,
Pringing her tide of dreams to sweep
The crosses and griefs of the years away
From the heart that is weary and faint To-Day;
And those dreams should give me Rack again
A peace have never known since then
When l was boy, little 10y.

Columbus.

Columbus the discoverer of America, was born
at Genoa, Italy, in 1885. His father was a wool
comber and owned small factory. Although his
family was very poor they managed to give him a
fair education. At the age of II he started his
sea-iife which was continued almost uninterrupted
till his death.
He was pious Catholic and it has been said
there was not a single blot his moral character
He made four voyages to the new world. On
arriving in Spain after the first and second voyages
he received the highest honors. But on returning
home from the third voyage the hero who had given
to Spain new world put in chains because
slanderers had injured his reputation in the Span
ish courts. On his arrival in Spain, however he
was released and loaded with new favors by Isa-
bella He made his fourth voyage in 1902 and re-
turning home found his faithful friend Isabella on
her deathbed. She peacefully died Nov. 26th, 1904
After this Ferdinand treated Columbus very unjust
ly The great admiral himself died on May 90,
1906. in small inn at Valladolid. At his bedside
we're his two sons and Franciscan Father. His

How to Keen Innocent.

Boys and girls, [ have something important to
say to you wish to speak to you about Innocence;
how to keep it and increase it.
When Jesus looked into the eyes OF the children
he many things that made him think of heaven.
You know he said the Kingdom of heaven be-
longed to the children.
One of the things he saw was Innocence-one
Of the most beautiful and precious things of life
and something which lost cannot be easily regained
if ever.
wish to tell you how to keep it, But you ask
first what / mean by Innocence. Let me tell You
Here is a clean sheet of paper. How white and
clean it IS Let me drop some ink on it. There IS
blot You may erase it, but the paper is never the
same. There will be scar" Other blots make
it worse, and the paper loses its cleanness lnno-
cence is ceanness.
Here is nice clean handkerchief. That is in
nocence. Here is a nice white dress. How sweet
it looks. Get it spotted with midland it loses its
whieness and sweetness. That is loss of innocence.
Here is glass of pure water from the well. How
refreshing Drop some ink into it and it loses its
purity. That is loss of innocence
An innocent boy is one who is sweet and pure
and clean in thought and action.
How you keep your sweet innocence which
is priceless II you will learn one short word
and learn it well, you can keep it, and even make
it grow.
1t is the word obey
Do you recall the story OF Adam and Eve in the
garden of Eden? You remember they were put in a
beautiful place. They bad everything they wanted
Il is picture of Innocence. The reason they lost
their garden because they did not obey God
So, lie had to take it away from them
There was one tree in the garden. called the
tree of the knowledge of good and evil. He told
them not to eat of that tree But it looked pleasant
to them and they dsobeyed. That was all. But by
it they lost their innocence.
Boys and girls there are men and women about
YOU who would give everything money houses and
land, who would take Journeys and even cut off
right hand, if they couldset back their innocence
