The smallest electrical dynamo in the
world was made in France. This dyna-
mo is so tiny that its base would not
occupy all the space OIL a copper cent.
1t operates with hum greatly resembl-
ing the buzz of a mosquito. 1t weighs
but one-ffth of an ounce and is six
tenths of an inch in thickness. The
little dynamo can be used not only as a
generator, but as a motor, consuming
in the latter case current at pressure
of two and one-half volts. A small
pocket battery will operate it.

time is the traffic record of the Cham
plain canal, not under railroad control.
No less than 500, 900 tons of freight
were carried during the season just
closed and it was carried at rates so

long, from Troy to Lake Champlain, it
has more than twenty locks and it has
400 boats of 200 tons each. The service
of the canal is of great Importance to

Along with the othel attractions of
Vermont, the states publicity bureau
might impress it upon the world that
Vermont is State of ong-lived people,
pointing out as an example Rev Sedg-
wick w. Bidwell of Middebury, who
observed his 104th birthday anniversary
on December 6 and who seems in fair
way to eclipse the record of a former
Barre woman, the late Lucy Wood,
who lived to be 107 years old Then
there are countless others around the
century mark or approaching that as
further examples of longevity which is
heritage of Vermont people If peo-
pie desire to linger long in this world,
let them come to Vermont and at the
same time have happy, contented ex-

ing of the new Library of Hawaii,
the board of education this morning

taken place since December 2, 1912.

VI a set of resolutions out of respect
for the late Professor w. D. Alexan-
der. The board of education 1t is
stated as we'll as theTerritory, has,
IN the death of Professor Alexander,
lost a man who has been one OF the
biggest forces the schools of the Ter
ritory have ever had, and it was
deemed fittingly by the board to carry
this motion. - r..
Superintendent Pope then spoke in
length concerning the biennial report
which he has prepared and which has
ibeen referred 10 the Governor for his
approval He said that the report
was complete in every detail, and per-
tained to all the departments of edu-
cation. He mentioned the fact that.
during the past two months several

HOUSE
Fourth DaY

AS on the two previous days the
house of representatives this morning
gave virtually all its time to the intro
duction of new bills and resolutions.
No discussions developed and the bus
mess was routine, pure and simple.
The governors second special message
was received, together with the general
appropriation bill II discussed and
which was introduced by Norman
watkins, chairman of the finance
committee.
The first bill to pass the lower
house of the legislature was that pro-
viding $4,000 for the expense of that
body during Its present session. being
adopted with only one dissenting vote.
The first senate measure to appear in
the lower branch also came in today,
a bill providing for the expense of the
upper house.

LOCAL AND GENERAL

Asking the legislature for an ap-
preparation of $4,000, DIR. J. 8. B.
Pratt, president of the board of health,
has taken the first steps toward the
establishment of a bureau Of child
hygiene, whose function shall he the
reduction of the now enormously high
infantile death rate 1t is DIR. Pratt's
plan to have this bureau consult with
parents as to the proper care of their
infants; give instruction in dietetics
and child hygiene, and otherwise look
after the health of children within the
territory. This bureau would also
superintend the employment of child
labor, seeing to it that all such labor
is performed under sanitary and
healthful conditions. DR.. Pratt points
out that deaths of children under five
years of age now constitute 5-12 Of
the total mortality. and that one baby
dies out of every five born. He esti-
mates that many of these lives could
be saved, and argues that 1t is much
more economical in the long run to
reduce the death rate than to continue
to import laborers at SIS each.

BILL WOULD END
BASEBALL ON
SUNDAY

A severe Sunday observance Dill,
proposed to put an end to Sunday
baseball games and all other sports
and entertainments on the Sabbath,
and which, it is said will have much
approval in the house, is to be intro
duced by Representative c. K. Make
kau, according to his statement last
nIgnt in the course OF an address at
Christian Endeayor meeting at the
kaumakapili church.
1t is SAID the major portion OF the
members of the lower house at this
session are strongly inclined reiigl-
ously and that in that branch OF the
legislature at least measure OF that
KIND stands an excellent chance to
pass. r.
, Representative VIM. j. Sheldon and
one or two other legislators were
present when Makekau made his
statement, which was loudly "kokua-
ed by many who heard it.
Makekau said the present laxity in
observance of the Sabbath is having
a very deleterious effect on the young
people of the territory, particularly
the Hawaiian children, and declared
it is degrading their morals He
would re-establish the old order of
things, in vogue up to 1909, when
Senator Quinn's measure permitting
Sunday amusements became law.
BY resolution Mr. Makekau an
nounced he also intends waging a
strict censorship OF moving pictures,
declaring that many of those now
shown are extremely bad for the
morals of impressionable young chill
dren. He said he had seen many films
portraying passionate love scenes,
highway robbery, burglary and similar
vicious action, that he was convinced
would tend to give children wrong

ANTIQUATED ARMY
LAWS NAY BE
!: DISCARDED

s. There seems to be chance that the
United States army will be admins
tered under a new legal code. For
just LOG years there has been no for
NAL revision of the present articles of
war, and even then, some of the ar
ticles framed in 1775 remained un-
changed, so it is not surprising that
army legal procedure is cluttered
with quaint prohibitions for odd Of
fenses. Military matters have moved
apace between the commands of Geo.
Washington and Leonard Wood, and
while some of the old articles can be
cast into the discard, new ones are
necessary to simplify the administra-
ton of military justice by courts-mar-
tial.
General E. H. Crowder. judge advo-
cate general of the army, worked for
months on the revision of the articles,
and the result of his work is now be-
fore the military affairs committees of
the house and senate, with the en-
dorsement and approval of Secretary
of War Stimson. The new code con-
tains 119 articles.

recently convened in Washington is.

posed revision, according to General

raises the age limit in sexual crimes.
Hardly had II disappeared into the
senate bin hopper when mutterings
of the coming storm appeared. Judge
Robinson, OF the circuit court was the
first to express him opinion as being
against the bill. He said:
