COST OF FARMHOUSE LIGHTS
Results of Experiments at Pennsylva-
MIA Station Show Acetyiene Is
Most Economical.

The Pennsylvania experiment sta
ton has made some experiments with
kerosene, gasoline, denatured alcohol
and acetylene lamps to determine the
relative value of each form Of light
ing farm houses, with the following
conclusions:
"All kerosene lights without mantle
are of very poor quality, very unlike
daylight, hard on the eyes and hence
likely to produce pain and nervous
irritation and injury to health.
"Acetylene, gasoline and alcohol
1.-THE first one naked flame and the
last two using mantles) give light Of
a very much better quality than kero-
sene, light which in the proportions
of the colors in It's composition Is very
much more like daylight A light OF
good quality can be obtained also
from kerosene by using a mantle.
"By reason Of the very excellent
quality of acetylene light and taking
account of the eye injuries and pain
and the effects on general health, that
may result from the use of ordinary
kerosene light the former may be
truly much more economical than the
latter, Notwithstanding the greater
cost per candle power Of acetylene.
This is true, also, Of alcohol light
{even at present prices) by reason of
its very good quality
There is no doubt that the poor
light of most farm houses contributes
to some extent to a desire of the boy
or girl to go to the city, where read
Ing after dark is not an irksome task
for eye and mind.

The Cycle Passenger Case.

At the first stage of the test the new
police regulation forbidding two per
sons to ride on d cycle built for one is up
held in the Police Court. An appeal
will now be taken to the Supreme Court
Of the District, and the authority of
the Commissioners to interfere with the
privileges of motor cycle owners in the
interest OF public safety will be again
passed upon. 1t is to be hoped that
the courts will finally approve this rule,
which might protitably have been writ
ten u long time ago when the practice
of double riding on motor cycles began.
Several accidents would doubtless have
been avoided. In any case, the un-
pleasant spectacle of young women rid
ing about town on these vehicles as
passengers would have been prevented.
The moral side of the question does
not appeal strongly TO the public
that of the security of pedestrians. who
are undoubtedly menaced in some de-
gree by the presence Of a passenger
on a motor cycle. Yet it is an important
consideration and may we'll be taken

stalwart band of pilgrim fathers settled

C. imatic conditions of the new world. Oc-
tober came. and with it the first furries
of snow. The frost nipped the woods and
the chill Of the air foretold the coming
of winter. We Will now have winte.-,
it is further related that one of til. band
remarked. and no doubt the worthy Brad
ford, E.ndicott and Winthrop nodded their
heads in approval Continuing, history
tells us that the friendly Indians pointed
10 the skies and to the west and told
the fathers that summer would come
again before the winter. They were right.
In the last days of october 1t grew warm
again. The air was filled with slanting
sunshine. The world seemed wrapped In
an atmosphere of s.eepy warmth The
fathers looked upward and remarked,
''Lo the Indians summer" This may
or may not have been the origin of the
term. 1t is an expression. however, that
is applied to a short season of pleasant
weather. which commonly occurs in the
latter part of October or the early part OF
November.

The Drama as an Educator.

From the Columbus Dispatch.
The power Of the drama to teach les
sons that are worth the learning was
never greater than now. The theater
is one OF the most important OF the
places where the people meet and share
common emotion, mostly of laughter.
but sometimes OF tears, and occasionally
of something Sterner than either. Its
influence in making and perpetuating
prejudice has been observed and re-
scented by the Irishman. the jew, the
negro and others who properly feel that
they have a higher mission than to he
the subject of jest. The power which
those protests reveal there is now a de-
sire TO turn to good account. The other
day we printed suggestion that the
stage be used to dignity farmers and
farming, instead Of holding them no to
ridicue 1t is timely suggestion which
might be adopted to the advantage OF
all of US, for there is need TO turn the
drift of population back to the country.
and it is manifest that the stage might
be used 10 create the necessary senti-
ment.
