Great Danger From Fire.

The unusual dry weather that has
pr vailed the past month or more, ard
the filig leaves which hive fill d the
cutters of every house in the country
has been a great source of danger by
fires, and every one should see that
G itters and valleys are clear d of leaves.
esp 'eia'ly in the country where there is
little tir4 rejection.
MIR. Lang Aycock thinks he had a mar
row escape from having his house ie-
stroved by fire a week OF more ago,
when the Consolidated School was
burned The wind was blowing the
c'nders and ashes in his direction. but
h was able to keep the roof of his
nouse ini barn wet with a Brooks
force pump, which is advertised in this
paper. 1t will throw water thirty feet
or more, and fires on roofs or ceilings
can be easily extinguished if caught in
Its early incipiency. Besides being use
full in case of fire it can serve a useful
purpose in many other ways.

ILLS IN TRAIN OF AVIATION
Sudden Ascent to High Attitudes, and
as Sudden Descent, Frequently
Brings on Sickness.

M. Berget, a French aeronaut, aft.
er speaking Of the conditions of the
atmosphere in general, brings out
some points on aviator's sickness.
Aeroplanes sometimes reach attitudes
Of ten thousand feet in an hour, and
here the effects on the ear such as
humming or cracking noise are about
the same as In q balloon, but the ef-
feet on the respiratory organs is diff
ferent. The pilot Is sooner out Of
breath and he feels a special kind Of
uneasiness. During the descent, the
heart beats are of greater applique,
but without accelerating. A quicker
descent in a sailing flight at a speed
Of 1000 or 1900 feet a minute or
even more, causes a feeling Of a spe-
cial kind, or uneasiness, accompanied
with humming in the ears Burning
in the face Is also felt and a sever
headache, also the great tendency to
sleep which has been before observed.
The movements Of the body are slug
gish and unskillful. These symptoms
continue for some time after the land
ing, and the tension in the arteries Is
noticed to be higher than the normal.
Health.

Hello Nation.

Hello! We are the greatest tele-
phone users in the world. The daily
average of talks over the telephone
last year was over 10000, 900. There
are 10000 places, towns, cities and
hamlets from which telephone mes
sages may be sent, says Leslie's Week
ly. This is 5000 more than the num-
Der OF our post Offices, 10000 more
than the nul Der of our railroad sta
tons and three times the number Of
telegraph offices in the country. There
are nearly 100000 telephone stations
In the Bell system-an increase last
year of over 500, 1000. These are the
facts reported by the American Tele-
graph & Telephone company in refer
ence to the Bell business. 1t earned
last year nearly s43, 5000, 900. Will 1t be

ADJUSTING SCHOOLS TO FARM
Opinion Advanced That Country Boys
and Girls Should Be Taught
Rural Subjects.

Advocating that the boys and gitls
stay on the farm and at the sate
time teaching city subjects In the
rural schools Is contradictory. II the
boys and girls are taught n thibg
they cannot be expected to desire TO
do something else even II so i'd
vised.
Boys and girls In thirty-four schools
in Wright county, Iowa, were asked
what they desired to do. or the 1874
boys. 157 desired to leave the farm
and 1853 Of the ia girls desired to do
likewise. But after agriculture and
home economies had been taught for
three years the same question "a
asked in the same schools. This time
1872 Of the ia boys desired to stay
on the farm and 161 of the 178 girls.
This changing Of an almost unani-
nous desire to stay on the farm
seems almost miraculous. Yet 1t was
done through making a change in the
course of study, writes W. G. Palmer
In the Breeders Gazette.
Boys and girls will desire to do the
things they have been taught how to
do. Their interest is developed in the
things they are taught. Agriculture
and home economics are the things
that boys and girls are most interest
ed In to begin with. They live in a
great agriculture and home economics
laboratory.
The knowledge that they have when
they come to school is on these sub
jects. Education to be the most effec-
tive must begin with what the chill
dren know.
The will to do springs from the
knowledge that one can do. One
likes to do what one can do we'll. Do
ing work that one does not under
stand is drudgery. Most boys must
enter productive work. If they are
not educated for 1t then 1t will be
drudgery. Most girls will manage
homes. II they are not taught about
1t homemaking would be a drudgery.
1t is in the power Of the schools to
make their enthusiastic workers or
drudges Of the boys and girls.

THANKSGIVING DAY.

Locally there was much cause
to give thanks yesterday to the
Giver of All Good Gifts. Our
section has been given good sea-
sons for their crops and a fair
yield. A generous harvest of
cotton, corn and hay has been
garnered. Sickness and death
have but lightly visited US and no
public calamity has touched US.
Our roads are vastly improved,
our cattle and lands worth two
or three times as much as a few
years ago-these and other things
give US cause to be thankful.
