TAKE CURE AT HOME
TALKS ON DECAY OF MANNERS
Lord Rosebery Addresses Boys Of the
Royal Grammar School at
GulIdford.

London.-"The Decay OF Manners"
was the subject OF an address by Lord
Rosebery to the boys of the Royal
Grammar school at Guildford.
Lord Rosebery. who presented
prizes to the boys. referred to school
statute framed 900 years ago. that
Courtesy and good manners are to
be established by all good MEANS"
and proceeded:
The men OF TIE seventeenth cen
tury. | suspect. the gentlest-bred Eng.
lishman ever produced. partly because
they possessed good manners them
selves. and partly because they realiz-
cd the enormous Importance Of
courtesy and manners In the common
transactions OF life.
Now. we English people. and am
afraid. still more we Scotch people.
are never famous for good manners.
! think at ono time there was sort
OF John Bull feeling In England that
good manners were a device for the
dancing. frog-eating Frenchman. whom
whom 1t was our duty to despise.
Il think there has been decay OF
manners In England. Scotland and all
OF the world. Good appearance md
good manners have an enormous com.
mercial value In life. sometimes won.
der why they are not harped on more
than on these occasions. Good appear
ance. you may say. Is not at our com
mand. Good looks arc not ut our com.
mand: they are n gift of the gods. but
a good. Straightforward. manly ap.
penrancc. nn appearance without self.
consciousness-which is the most dis.
agreeable feature perhaps Of all In ap-
pcarance-is within the command OF

MATHEMATICS EASY TO HIM
Tennessee Professor Never Has Been
Baked by Problem, No Matter
How Difficult

Bristol, Tenn.-Landon G. Haynes.
for 80 years at the head Of the mathe-
matical department of Greeneville and
Tusculum college, in east Tennessee
the school where Andrew Johnson
learned to debates one OF the best
mathematicians in the country. II not
the best Moreover. he is man of
comprehensive knowledge. He is a
master Of many languages and of all
the sciences. and translates the dead
languages as easily as the modern.
Nothing has ever come to his notice
Of . mathematical nature that he could
not solve readily. When asked by pu-
pills on one occasion II he had ever
been stalled" on mathematical prob
lem he replied:
Il have not; and, while do not say
1t In the sense of boasting. have no
hesitancy In making the assertion that
there is no problem based upon sci
entific principles that l cannot solve"
At Princeton the instructor In
mathematics has been accustomed to
allowing any pupil to pass without ex-
animation who could solve certain
difficult problem In calculus. Few, It
is said. have ever been able to do It.
Professor Sentell, who was educated
In academic mathematics under Pro
fessor Haynes. tried this problem and
failed; but he said to the Princeton
teacher his old professor In east Ten.
nessee could solve 1t, and he asked
permission to send It to Professor
Haynes.
In few days the problem came
back solved. The Princeton professor
looked 1t over and exclaimed, Cor
rect. And by an entirely new method
Of solution
AT Professor Sentell's suggestion
the Princeton mathematical head
wrote to inquire how long It took the
Tennessee professor to solve the prob
lem. The reply was: Just three
minutes"
Professor Haynes has never sought
to be known beyond his own class
room. On the day his graduation
although he had written his gradua
ton address in three languages. hi
was not present to deliver 1t. being ou'
on the river bank fishing.
Professor Haynes knows abouI
many subjects. His knowledge o.
theoretical and applied electricity sur
prised the men in that department o.
Chicago university. He is equally
conversant with the science OF agricul
ture. He is fifty.three years old.

Americans Need Not Go Abroad

New Yorker Tells His, Experience
Relates How He Rested UP From
Heat and overwork by Hot and
Cold Water Treatments.


New York.-In the blistering sum-
msr weather. when tens OF thousands
of overworked and nerve-wrecked
Americans are swarming to the wa
terfng places and cure houses OF Eu-
rope. 1t is worth while to consider the
results which one can get by common
sense methods at home. James Creel-
uan writes.
Hydrotherapy! To the average man

With mystery.
Yet, in general way. 1t means
nothing more than the scientific and

SEEK NEW SALES PLAN
GRAND JUNCTION FRUIT GROW

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Grand Junction-The annual meet
ing Of the, Grand Junction Fruit Grow
ers' Association will be held here Feb

Because of the low prices received
for fruit the past year there is much
discomfort among the ranchers OF the
valley, who believe that the method
of selling their fruit should be
changed. In the past the fruit has
been sold through agencies and COM
mission men in the east, often going
through the hands of as many as six
different middlemen before it reaches
the consumer. The finest Grand Val
ley apples are selling for more than
SO per box In eastern markets, yet
little more than $1.25 is received here.
There are two proposals under CON
sideration. One is union of the
three fruit growers associations OF
the Grand Valley, and the ultimate
combination of all in western Colo.
RADIO. The other is that of employing
travelling statesmen. There is doubt
In the minds of some growers about

tion under the Sherman antitrust law.
