WIND BLOWS 81 BILL FROM
COPS A N TOWN RACES

GLOUCESTER. Aug. This place
may be described as in a state of
ferment. Someone has lost a
81 bill and the whole town is on the
lookout. The worst part Of it all is
that the police almost had it, but let
it go.
Martin Rothschell, a policeman,
was standing at King street and Jer-
sey avenue when he saw a 81 bill
lying in front of him. Rothschell
didn't believe it at first, but on
bending over he saw it was the real
thing. AS he stopped further to
haul it in he kicked a stone that was
alongside Of it and in SO doing kicked
the bill into the air and the breeze
carried it away.

This girl IS the Private ~StenOgrapher to Cover
nor Woodrow Wilson and wrote his famous
speech of acceptance Of the Democratic Nom
ination for President Of the United States, which he
will deliver today and which will be published in all
the papers throughout the country.

N Hiss SALOME TARR, who has been chosen as stenographer
1VI to Governor Wilson, started her studies in the Gregg system
of shorthand about three years ago in Drake College. Miss
Tarr won the accuracy record of the world in the fifth International
Shorthand Speed Contest at Washington, taking court testimony at
the rate of 20 words a minute and solid matter at the rate OF lso
words a minute. Miss Tarrs percentage was 1914 per cent. perfect
a remarkable performance. Miss Tarr in taking Governor Wilson's
speech of acceptance wrote 6o00 words in one hour and a half, and
then transcribed the notes on the typewriter with practically no err
ros inca few hours. Former Mayor Pagan, of Jersey City, telephoned
the Governor that he had a worlds champion on his staff. The Gov
ernor was sufficiently impressed to call Miss Tarr over from her
routine tasks in. MI. Measdays Office. Her associates are already
planning a catcer in the White House at Washington for Miss Tarr.
The Drake College, in which this young woman was taught, has won
and holds nearly el the biggest championships Of The world, includ-
ing the International School Typewriting Championship and Amateur
Typewriting Championship, besides claiming the champion profess
sional typist of the world and innumerable American championships.

need of all that may impress itself
upon the tender mind f the child"
In the forefront of the movement for
better babies and better care of the
welfare of such babies as we have is
Mrs. David o. Mears Of Essex, Mass,
vice president of the National Con
gress of Mothers, and a we'll known
leader in everything pertaining to the
advancement of women and children.
She has taken up the movement with
the enthusiasm of a vigorous, earnest
personality, trained by years of SER
vice in sociological and philanthropical
work. Her friends say that her enlist
ment in the war for better babies and
better care of children of all ages
means that it will pass beyond the
stage of theory and will accomplish
worth while results.
The campaign for better babies
which the mothers congress will make
is to be nation wide. In every city
town and village, wherever the in
fiuence of the congress and its mem

At lectures, discussions, luncheon, cir
cles-in fact, everywhere-the topic
will be Better Babies and Better
Men and Women" The plan is the
result of years of study by the moth
ers. It aims to give women a compre-
hensive understanding of how they
may be able to give their children
a better heritage of good health
q Among the important matters which
will be comprised in the work of the
mothers ara the following
Clothes, food, play, games, athletics,
hygiene, school, home work, musical
training art culture religious needs
(nonsectarian, of course, since virtual
ly all leading religious beliefs are rep
resented in the membership of the
mothers congress) home life in its re-
lation to school and playground, tie
proper training of young boys and
girls, the avoidance of perils, the lead
ing of older years, college training and
instruction in the duties of fatherhOod
and motherhood. 1t is an ambitious
and a comprehensive program and one
worthy of the labors which will be ex-
pended upon it.
At the recent eighth annual confer
ence on child labor. held in Louisville
under the auspices of the national
child labor committee, topics related
to those contained on the program Of
the mothers congress were discussed
Among them were the movement
against factory life for children of
tender years, better schooling, more
sanitary conditions in homes, schools
and work places in which children are
employed, increased use of the schools
the compilation of records and vital
statistics that will aid in the lessening
of infant mortality.

ELECTRICITY MAKES CHICKENS GROW BIG

thing was noticed in the demeanOr of
Those which had been under high
frequency treatment remained per-
fectly calm and sedate when Mr.. Ba-
ker placed them on the scales. Not so
the ordinary fowls. They squawked
and kicked violently when taken out
of their "foster-mother" and when
and opened their beaks in fright. The
electric chickens on the other hand,
were quite placid and confident, ready
to peck anybody that interfered with
them.
A striking proof of how the birds
delight in taking bracing dose Of
5000 volts of electricity through their
bodies was afforded by Mr.. Baker,
Every morning and afternoon the cur
rent is turned on for an hour or two,
and the chickens evidently know by
the buzzing sound when the wire
lperches are charged. Mr.. Baker went
to his laboratory and started the cur
rent. When the "Zzzz" started the
twelve birds comically put their heads
on one side as though listening. Then
one jumped on the wires, then anOth-
er, and within couple of minutes the
twelve of them were perched on the
wires, obviously enjoying their cleo
| trio bath
These experiments show that it is
possible by electric treatment to hast
en- the growth of chickens" said Mr..
Baker. Farmers who wish to force
the growth of their fowls for the mar.
ket would, it seems, be greatly aided
by putting them under electric treat
ment.
Whether or no these chickens will
grow to an exceptional size remains
to be seen. The electric treatment
} will be continued. The results at
J present appear to be very successful

LONDON, February ELECTRICITY
applied to agriculture is no new thing,
but an ingenious Englishman recent
ly conceived the idea of applying it to
the cultivation of chickens, and the
results, he asserts, are remarkable.
1t is a scientist of reputation who
made this experiment., Thorne Ba-
ker. The Daily Mirrors scientific ex-
pert, who not long ago visited the
United States, He has been expert
menting with twenty-fOur young
chickens, all of which were exactly
the same weight when they came un-
der his care.
Twelve of the birds he placed in a
Hearson "foster-mother," and these
were allowed to grow in the ordinary
way. The other twelve birds were
placed in a "foster-mother" in which
the perches are wires, and through
these wires 5000 volts of electricity
are passed every day. So powerful is
the current which passes to the cleo
trio "foster-mother" that sparks fly
out to ones finger when it is put near
the perches
Yesterday Mr.. Baker decided upon
test to prove which of the chickens
had thriven the most. IN appearance
the twelve electric chickens were OBJ.

out haphazard and carefully weighed
The reason given for the exceptional

birds took away its food. Here are
