Why the Fly Must Die.
the Eastern and Western Review.

From the Eastern and Western Review.
The house fly exists only through the
federation OF men-a federation which.
were 1t not ignorant. would be criminal.
The house fly is the most terrible single
enemy that mankind has among living
creatures. Beasts of the jungle have slain
their thousands. but this prowler in the
household has slain his tens of thousands.
OF all vermin he Is the most filthy; of all
purveyors Of disease the most deadly.
The house ny is born in offal-nowshere
else. The manure pile and the cesspool
that he comes to visit the kitchen, the
dining room and the nursery. He drags
his filthy feet across the bread dips them
in the butter, wipes them on the meat
and bathes in the milk He seeks out the
sickroom and sips the excretions Of the
consumptive. the typhoid fever patient
and the child with summer complaint.
Experiments were made to measure the
possible range of flight of flies. and fur
Their observations were recorded on the
ways in which artificially infected flies
carry and distribute pathogenic and other
bacteria. The experiments and observa-
tons quoted in the report show definitely
that artificially infected flies. both house
flies and blow flies, are capable of infect
ing fluids, such as milk and strip, on
which they feed and into which they fall
In the case of the house fly. infected with
certain heterogeneous, gross infection
may be produced in milk for at least
three days, and a smaller degree of infec-
ton for ten days or even longer. Blow
flies produce gross infection for six to
nine days with nOn-spOre-bearing micro
organisms and some degree Of infection
for three or four weeks

An Authors Labor Union.
From the New York World.


Well known authors and playwrights
are preparing to organize protective
association. the special objects Of which
will be to "standardiZe" the relations
of author and publisher, enforce fair
treatment, including the prompt accept
ance and publication Of manuscript,
and ENSURE writers full and prompt re-
turns for their work" It will be called
a league. but by whatever name IT Is
known it will be in effect literary labor
union, the organization of which will
have a direct interest as marking the
adoption of union principles by brain
workers"
Assuming that the league enlists fun
membership of professional writer's, 1t
will be in a position to control literary
output and dictate terms. VIII 1T fix its
own scale of payment and establish
minimum" royalty or boycott unfair
publishers?
Its attitude toward publishers who
maintain the "open shop" will be inter-
esting. as we'll as its position on the
question of sympathetic strikes in sup
port of mechanical employees with grew
ances If the writer's are going whole
heartedly into union organization they
must prepare to accept conditions or
collective action radically different from
the individual initiative to which they
are accustomed. The adjustment Of the
grievances of a writer of best sellers or
author of popular plays by a board OF
arbitration would be edifying. But will
a league of writer's ever indorse direct
action against an offending publisher?

Learning Nothing Useful"

From the New York World.
Rejoicing not long ago over the defeat
or delay OF educational reform at Oxford,
the London Saturday Review thanked God
that there still remained In England one
place where the sons Of gentlemen might
go. unjostled by the common herd, land
learn nothing useful" It Is long step
from such intellectual toryism to the
moderate conservatism Of President Hib-
ben's policy for Princeton, but his in
augural address leaned far enough to-
ward the faction OF general culture to
set the advocates OF practical electives"
raging once again DR.. Hibben makes a
good case for the prescribed course-if
colleges had only students of abundant
wealth, leisure and industry to deal with.
But the logic of fact cannot be ignored
The college cannot make a silk purse
OF sow's ear. It cannot turn Doors into
gentlemen nor fools into philosophers. 1t
can show boys how to think study and
observe; and as the actual average boy
works twice as hard upon studies suited
to his bent or useful in his proposed life
work as upon general-culture SNAPS he
gets out Of them not only more practical
benefit but more real educational drill
1t may be regrettable, but that is the way
he is built. 1t is a common complaint
that the technical student has less time
for athletics than his fellow in the arts
course; but he does study. And some
thing the same is true of the man who
goes In for practical electives.
Nor Is the lad who has his living to
earn satisfied to begin his professional
work two years later than his German
confrere. No praise of pure scholarship
Will deter him. therefore. from continuing
to prefer universities which by three
year courses, summer classes practical
electives and other devices help him get
at the Job early and well equipped.

The Corsage Bouquet.
From the New York World.

From the New York world.
A report from Paris announces that the
passion for unbroken lines in women's
garmenting has gone to such extent that
during the coming season not even so
much as a bouquet will be permitted to
mar the symmetrical simplicity of the
gown She that would have show OF
flowers about her must content herself
with such as embroidery about the waist
line can simulate. Suggestion adds that
slender girls may weave whole gariands
OF silken blooms about them. but those
of a plumpness must be content with a
delicate spray.
Should this edict hold sway for q con-
siderable period. there will pass away
from romance and from the drama one
OF the most useful as well as beautiful
OF their Joint properties. Hardly any
thing OF a msiden's dress has been SO
often remembered by lovers and described
by novelists and poets as the corsage eou-
we're worn the bouquet was generally q
gift of the adoring one. II the lady wore
il ali was well. II she did not. either the
unscrupuious duenna had stolen 1t or
the end of sweet love was at hand Even
when artificial bouquets came in there was
a chance for love to use II as token ana
for beauty to wear 1t as q sign. 1t was
something about feminine dress q man
could recognize at sight
Abolish IL, and how shall any man ever
again know one woman from another In
a ballroom or at the opera? What gage
shall the hero Of novel or play take here
over? A rat from her hair? Or q

The Fruits of Sacrilege.

From the New YORK World
Mr. Lloyd-George gets on the nerves
Of the peers friends dreadfully. When
they charge the government in the Welsh
establishment bin with robbery Of
cod" he reminds the Cecils and Caven-
fishes that their family trees are laden
with the fruits OF sacrilege at the refor-
nation.
1t is a far cry from Henry VIII to
George Y. But why should the represent
atives OF noble families who oppose discs
tablishment in Wales be so outraged by
Mr.. Lloyd-George's reference TO the facts
~ history Undoubtedly, as Mr.. Bonar
Law, the unionist leader. said. four GEN.
turtles give a man prescrlptive right TO his
property.
But people who. because of their long
ne of ancestors and inheritances in land.
claim exclusive class privileges and po
litical rights should not be too sensitive.
They should be satisfied with possessing
the fruits of sacrilege" without becom-
ing incensed whenever some unfeel.ng
person in public debate recalls how four
hundred years ago the founders of the
family fortunes profted by 'sacrilege"
TO rake over the origins OF the noble
families of Europe would be TO reveal
many unfattering details. An aristocracy
must accept the past with all its conse-
quences, including the little irregularities
Of the reigns OF Henry VIII and Charles
H.

CANNON SHOT PHOTOGRAPHED
Gun Helps to Take Picture OF the
Projectile.
From Popular Electricity.

From Popular Electricity.
Photographers create much amusement
with photographs they make of them
selves in various attitudes, but 1t has re-
NAMED for the experts Of the United
States Army to train twelve-inch projec-
tiles from the heavy coast defense guns to
make pictures of themselves as they go
through the atmosphere so fast the ordi-
nary eye can hardly trace their flight
Experiments of various sorts have been
made in the army with view Of photo
graphing the flight Of shots from the
heavy guns. These were begun to secure
records Of the splashes made by the shots
falling into the water. So successful We're
these efforts that the photographers were
encouraged to attempt the making Of
picture of a shell as it left the gun. There
were immense difficulties to be overcome
and many pictures were spoiled before
method was evolved that brought the de-
sired results. The first trials were made
on the gun carriage with the recoil mech
anism operating the camera. This was
found to be unsuccessful because OF GER
tain unevenness of work in the mechan-
ism necessarily produced in the recoil-
Another difficulty met was In the blast
of the discharge. Finally, after repeated
attempts, it was determined to make the
projectile itself operate the camera. Elec-
trical connection was made between the
camera and the bore of the gun so that
the series Of resulting photographs would
show the various steps in the discharge
from the time the charge of powder is ex-
ploded until the projectile is clear of the
gun and well on it's way to its mark.
The work was done in the artillery course
of the School Of Enlisted Specialists un
der the direction OF Capt. Francis j.
Behr. The apparatus for exposing the
negative was placed on the sighting
platform and the camera began the MAX
ing OF negatives the instant the gun was
fired, the exposures being made at inter-
walls Of 1000 of a second. So well did
the mechanism work that several mega
tives were actually made before the pro-
jectle had travelled the length of the gun
and emerged from the muZzle. The pic
lures are regarded as highly valuable to
the science of artillery. Experiments with
motors were made with the same appara-
tus with equal success.
