HOLDS COUNTY
 NOT LIABLE
Where No Provision Is Made For Expenses of Furnishing NiO-
 latiOnS of Statutes.
Special to Independent.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, Nov. 15.-Attor- ney General Moose has decided that where the state is obligat- ed to provide the means whereby a county can enforce a statutory requirement, and does not meet that obligation, the county can not be held responsible for non- compliance with the law.
 The question arose over the enforcement of an act of the leg islature of 1913 requiring county clerk to provide standards of weights and measures. In a let ter to County Clerk Herbert $. Turner of Pulaski county, con- struing the act making a misde- meanor failure to provide such weights and measures, at the expense of the county, he says:
 "Inasmuch as the law requir- ing the several county clerks to procure set of weights and measures that will conform to the standard as fixed by the weights and measures in the of flee of the Secretary of State; and inasmuch as no such stand 1 ard is in existence it would seem impossible for the clerks to comply with the requirements of the law. If the several clerks should buy weights and meas ures there would be no method whereby their accuracy could be tested, because there would be 1 no common standard and each clerk would have weights and measures different from the oth- CTS. Under such circumstances I would advise you to purchase no weights or measures until the state has purchased other standards
 The government has advised
 Secretary Hodges that the U-
 nited States is no longer fur
 nishing standards to the states
 It appears that the state was
 furnished with a full set ot
 standards some time before the
 war, but there is no record ot
 what became of them.

LITTLE ROCK
 DfFEATS BLUFF
Wins From Pine Bluff Capitol City High School Team
 High.
Special to Independent.

l cPeCldl lO llQopenQonI.
 Little Rock, Nov. 15.- The Little Rock high school defeat ed the football warriors from the Pine Bluff school in a close and exciting game, by a score of 6 to 0, Friday afternoon at West End Park. It was rather hard luck to the Pine Bluff team that it went down to de- feat, for during the first three quarters, and all of the time but the brief period in which Little Rock won, the visiting c. leven had the best of the argu ment. Most of the game was played in Little Rock territory, and but for an incompleted for ward pass, Pine Bluff would have been the winner. In the third quarter Pine Bluff car ried the ball on long forward passes to the Littel Rock five yard line, and then tried for a goal with a pass, but Little Rock blocked and took the ball.
 At the start of the game Pine Bluff showed supremacy, but continually tried the strong Lit tie Rock line, or the end runs. Several times the forward pass was resorted to, and the ball was passed cleanly to the Pine Bluff forward, who fumbled. The player was in the clear, and had the pass been successful, Pine Bluff would have scored, not once, but several times.
 In the last quarter Little Rock flashed for about five minutes, but in that short time it took the 1 ball through the Pine Bluff line to the twenty yard line, where a short forward pass tore off another ten yards. Pine Bluff expected another forward pass or a straight line plunge, but Harris skirted the left end for l a wide circle which ended with the ball behind the Pine Bluff goal. Martin failed to kick goal.
 With seven minutes still to play, Pine Bluff returned to the forward pass, but this time luck was all against them. It can' not all be counted as luck either for the Little Rock players were always alert and intercepted most of the passes Pine Bluff attempted. O'Neill, Little Rock long passes. Little Rock played safe, with the ball in it's posses sion, preventing Pine Bluff an other chance at the goal.
 Little Rock excelled in punt ing, and the tackling of both was fierce.
 This game removes Pine Bluff l as a contender in the race fol the state championship, which will be decided between Little Rock and Fort Smith Thanks giving day. Little Rock plays Hot Springs next week, but Pine Bluff has defeated this team, and it's only chance tt : figure further in the champion ! ship, it to defeat Little Rock.

supposedly ceased to develop, but be-
cause their business habits are fixed;

These are facts, hard and often bit
ter, but facts. This has been the gen
GRAFTON of young men. 1t has seen a
man Of AZ become president Of the

yet 80 assume great responsibilities
and accomplish great results. "
The young -oId man has beeneon the

plodding along a we'll known rut while
the youngsters have passed in motor

lest he lose it, knowing that it would

the club are wise they will begin
their missionary work not with EN-
ployers but with themselves.
This condition will change just as
soon, and no sooner, as men quit get-
ting old at 40, or so, or so. This is
distinctly up to them; they don't have
to get old unless they want to. And
first they must stop saying they are
old; stop getting tired; stop walking,
dressing and acting old.
They must keep their minds and
their eyes open. They must put to

A Triumph Of True Theory

Minneapolis Tribune: The world
has not ceased to marvel, after two
thirds of q, century, at the mathemat-
icaI triumph Of two young %astrono-
mers, Adams in England and Lever
rier in France, who demonstrated the
oretically that to account for perplex-
ing variations in the motions of GER
tain planets there should be another
planet in a specified section Of the
heavens. The planet Neptune was
found where their theory said II
should be found.
Not a whit less marvellous Is the
achievement of DR.. Rudolf Diesel, in
Iventor OF the Diesel engine, one of the
most important developments in the
production Of power since the inven-
ton Of the steam engine itself. DIR,
Diesel, according. to Henry Harrison
Suplee, in The Scientific American,
had made q thorough study Of me
chanics and thermodynamics. He
knew the shortcomings and defects of
heat motors in use in 1897, and know
ing also that faulty construction was
chargeable with the lack Of efficiency
In the motors Of that day, he set to
work to devise a better motor.
So thoroughly had he mastered the
theories, and so accurately did he APP
ply the principles, that not until he
had worked out the whole question to
its logical theoretical end, showing
just what the proposed motor could
do. did he have an engine constructed,
His methods were just the opposite OF
those commonly attributed to invent
ors. Men OF inventive traits are pop
ularly supposed to be. seized with an
inspiration to build a new machine.
They build one. try II, correct its de-
sfects, try 1T again. and so IaboriousIy
come to a realization OF their ideas.

accurate than a Vernier scale, and
then he applied them. His motor
worked to perfection from the start.
1t would have been a surprise If 1t had
not.
No motor of the present day holds
the possibilities of this theoretically
perfect bit of machinery. DR. Otto
had demonstrated how much more eff
fcient an explosive engine could be
made than d steam engine, n Dr..
Diesel showed how much more efiic-
lent a heat engine could be made than
either the steam or a engine. His
| first engines of small size developed
an efficiency Of fully 80 per cent,
while the best steam engine showed
only half that. The engine of the
| present day shows a total heat value
in the fuel converted into power In
the cylinder of AZ to 48 per cent, near
ly three times that Of the steam en-
CINE and double that Of the gas en-
CINE.

the mechanism, SO true to theory, that
under the principle used there is no
need of artificial ignition, avoiding all
troubles common to the use of carbu-
retors, and combustion Is so perfect
that there is no residue. Yet delicate
as this adjustment is. the motor con-
sumes any kind of liquid fuel with
equal efficiency. Gasoline, gas tar,
peanut oil, castor oil, any sort Of
liquid fuel can be converted into
power in a Diesel engine.
This motor Is now being manufac-
tured in nearly all European count
tries. 1t is taking it's place alongside
