MORTON SCHOOLS
SHOW Big GAINS

Mandan Republican: County Super
intendent w. F. Lorin has just re-
ceived the complete returns from the
school census for Morton county and
from the figures it will be found that
the county is increasing very rapidly.
The increase in the school population
for the past year is 523, and in the
city OF Mandan So.
In 1910 the school population Of the
county was 6,691, and for Manda0 was
S63. In 1911 the county was 1914, and
Mandan was 92'. Very few counties
in the eastern part of the state will
show the increase which Morton has
enjoyed during the past year.

Explosions In Flour Mills.

An English firm of millers, trou-
bled with dust explosions, set about
discovering the cause of ignition of
the dust. The mills use the steel roller
process of patent flour, and iron or
steel particles in the grain were sus-
pected of coming in contact with the
steel rolls and emitting the spark,
causing the explosions. Accordingly
an apparatus was designed by which
all the grain subject to the rolls first
was passed over highly magnetized
steel %arresters. The result was strik-
tngly in proof of the theory. These
electromagnetic collected steel and iron
particles ranging from the miscrop1c
up to box nails several inches long.
With a standard equipment of arrest.
ers capable Of passing 1000 bushels OF
grain an hour, so much metal collects
that several times a day the magnets
must be swung aside and brushed
clean of their accumulations.

II there are n novelties in the sea-
sons fashions OF course they will be
reflected by the smart bathing suit. In
this case the harem skirt idea has
been adapted, and the result is that di.
vided bathing skirts are made for
smart women. The divided skirt Is a
sensible one for outdoor sports, and as
a bathing skirt 1t is comfortable and
modest, for it is laid in deep plaits
that make it even fuller than the ave
age bathing skirt. Ordinarily no one
would suspect that this trim costume
was a ty pc Of the much exploited and
much execrated jupe culotte.
Mohair, serge, silk and satin are
| some Of the materials favored for
bathing costumes. They are usually
trimmed with bands of contrasting
material. The princess suit with a
high waist effect, achieved by means
of a girdle. is popular. With the bath
ing dress a smart jersey is sometimes
worn. A silken handkerchief with q
striped border is knotted over the hair
and ornamental sandals are adopted
for the feet.

Result Of Germs and Not Of Changes

An English authority-now that the
season Of bad colds is approaching

PLANTATION that it is not sudden changes
in the weather nor sudden moving out
of a warm room to the chill outside
that is responsible for the cold and
cough. He argues that you can get a
cold any time from anybody who has
a cold and especially If the victim is
coughing broadcast.
Every one has observed that in
churches just after a long prayer or
In theaters just after a long imposed
silence upon the audience we have q

SELF STEERING SHIP.

New Scheme Of Propulsion Includes
Automatic Pilotage.
Two Brooklyn inventors have been
issued patents on a scheme for vessel
propulsion which they claim will make
possible the control of the engines
from the bridge and automatic me-
chanical steering. The system of pilot
house control of the propelling appa-
ratus is secured through the combin-
ing Of electric motors with kerosene
engines and the automatic mechan-
lcal steering by means of an electri-
cally connected compass.
The inventors claim that all the op-
orator in the pilothouse will have to
do will be to map out and start the
vessel on a course, after which the
machinery will do the rest. AS soon as
wind or wave throws the vessel from
her course the compass box, turned
around the north pointing needle by
the falling away Of the ship, makes
an electrical connection which starts
the propeller on one side revolving
faster than the one on the other. This,
so the inventors presume, will drive
the ship back to her course in a few
seconds, after the accomplishing of
which both the port and starboard
propellers will be revolved at the same
speed again.

We do not look for any great amount
of inventive genius among the Eski-
mos, but for years they have EN-
ployed a rather complete respirator,
used in the preparation and taking of
a vapor bath, as a means of protection
from the dense smoke. This Eskimo
respirator is a little basket woven of
twisted strands of fine grass. 1t Is
placed with its shallow side against
the mouth, and a wooden peg, which
rises from the center of the basket, is
held between the teeth. For this pur-
pose water is evaporated over a big
fire in a very low hut, which is tightly
closed to keep in the heat. In this
sitting atmosphere the employment Of
a r%espirator is absolutely necessary.
