The Easiest GROWING Tree.

Hard. fine grained, durable wood
usually grows slowly. A most remarka-
Bile exception is the eucalyptus, and
this 1t Is that gives the tree Its great
value as means OF reforestation. II
Is said that the eucalyptus grows five
times as rapidly as any other tree.
Seedlings have been observed to make
an average growth of six inches In
height a day, and one tree In California
attained height of 1875 feet and a
diameter Of thlrty-six inches In nine
years. The eucalyptus will not thrive
where there are frosts, but In the south
1t promises to go long way toward
filling the place once occupied by other
hardwoods. which have been greatly
reduced by demands for furniture, chr.
rage and cooperage stock HaTer's.

DISAPPEARING GUNS.
Ease With Which These Coast Defense
Monsters Are Operated.

Monsters Are Operated.
Three kinds Of big guns are used on
the coasts to defend us from hostile
invaders. When a gun is fired over
an embankment or parapet 1t Is called
a barbette. The earliest guns were OF
this order. The parapets were notch
ed so that the firing could be done
over their top When the gun is dis.
charged through port or hole in the
embankment 1t IL called a casemate
The newest kind Of heavy artillery Is
the disappearing gum which drops
back behind Its wall as soon rs 1t is
discharged
The man who aims the gun has a
little platform to one side of the ma
chine. Things are arranged so that be
can control all operations of the gun
from where he stands. Electricity is
used for bringing the gun up and get
ting It into position, and all the mech
anisn can be regulated by the gun
ner. So wonderfully Is the big machine
under control that 1t cannot he fired
by any person whoms0ever unless 1t IL
raised up and IN firing position. When
1t Is not in firing position It Is called
''out of battery"
So nicely Is The gun mounted that all
It's great mass can he handled by two
men. From the time they start load
ing II until the gun is mounted and
ready to fire only six seconds inter
yene One of the big guns can dis
charge a thousand pound projectile
every fifty-two seconds and put bat,

MYSTERY IN TWO

Investigation is today being made
into the origin OF two fires i'll the

four hours yesterday afternoon. The
household furnishings were destroyed
and considerable damage was done to

can, found in the kitchen closet after
the second fire. led Chief w. b. Cum

Iieye the fires were of incendiary origin.
The first fire occurred at 2:49 o'clock
and started in an upstairs clothes clos
ct. Ii was observed by a student in
the medical college across the street,
who sent in the alarm. When the fire
men arrived on the scene the closet was
mass of flames and before the blaze
was extinguished both fire and water
had done considerable damage.
At o'clock the second fire started
in a small closet in the kitchen. 1t was
at first thought that this fire was the
result of smoldering sparks, but after
the smoke had cleared away Chief
Cummings discovered the burned mat
tress.
The close proximity of the two fires,
together with the finding of the burned
mattress and the further fact that the
kitchen closet was discovered to be in
the opposite side of the house from
where the first fire originated. led the
firemen and the police to believe that
some one had deliberately started both
fires.
The Woodside renting agency, which
has charge of the house, was notified
and is assisting the police in their in
vestiga ton.
Twenty medical students who board
ed with Mrs. Roundtree were forced TO
seek other quarters for the night.

HIGH COST OF DANCING
MAY END FRAT" BALLS
AT STATE UNIVERSITY

ATHENS, GA, Jan. 28.-Not that
they are trying to be ultra Democratic
and adopt Woodrow Wilson's anti
dancing policy, but the fraternities at
the university are discussing seriously
the adoption of policy of abolishing
the frat dances that usually make
Athens, socially, from the termination
OF Lent until just before commencement.
and arranging instead a schedule Of CO.
tillions given under the auspices of the
German club and then bringing the sea-
son to grand finale with the usual
commencement dances which draw to
Athens several hundred visitors every
year.
The high cost OF the individual dances
is influencing this action and a pan
hellenic committee has it under seri-
Gus consideration.
