THE COMMERCIAL
CLUB MEETS
Important Steps Taken to Ex-

Lick Trail.

The Commercial Club met
Tuesday night in the coa .cil
chamber Of the City Hall and
started very important move
ment in the interest of the
Santa Fe-Boon Lick trail for the
state highway. An association
was formed known as the Santa
Fe-Boon Lick Highway As3oci-
alton. The chairman, Jas. r..
Moorehead, was authorized to
appoint an executive committee
OF ten or twelve whose duty it
viii be to exploit the Santa Fe-
Boon Lick trail as the proper
route for the state highway. This
committee will endeavor to or
ganize similar associations in
every city, town and hamlet
along this historical trail.
When this has been accomplished
the collective associations will
organize a state association and
thereby arouse such interest in
this route that none other can
hope to be considered.
That this will be a great work
no one can deny. A thorough.
fare designated as a state
highway" means much more
to this community and to every
other community through whicl
it will pass, than that is fully
realized. State or municipa

THE MARVELS OF
 INSECT SIGHT
, Huntsville Courier-JournaI.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal.
 With respect to the vision of the in- sects forming the higher forms of that lle the best authorities entertain two theories one, the older view, is that each lens forms a separate eye, and the other a most recent conclusion, Is that insects see as in a mosaic, each lens form ing part of the total picture.
 Now the older view is supported by the experiment of placing thin slice Of an eve under the microscope, when the image of any object reflected from the mirror Is seen to be transmitted through each of the hexagonal lenses. It is claimed that a rough model of an insects eye may be had in the shape of a glass shade of the form of half-sphere, say about IS inches in diameter. Place the eye at the center of the globe and paint on its sur face the picture of the outer world as seen through it.
 Dividing this painting into squares by lines placed at intervals of one-eighth of an inch, one will find, if he be of an in vestigative turn of mind that there will be represented some 25.600 of them. Ihese proportions, roughly speaking, are thoss lonnd in the eye of a dragon fly.
 If, as the next step in the investigat ton, Instead of the details of the picture on each square, one place a dab of color on t corresponding to the general tone, the sffect of the whole will then pretty nearly agree with that of the original painting. This, it is thought, is probably the inds inct kind of vision possessed by insects.
