weeks ago and appointed w. X. Hop
kins, supervisor of the grade schools
of Lehi
The high school board three weeks
ago engaged Professor Hopkins as
principal Of the Lehi high school, with
the understanding that the Lehi school
district would also engage him as sup
ervisor OF the grades. In fact, the
minutes OF the local board show that
its chairman was authorized to join
the high school In the deal.
Each OF the two boards, the high
school and the district. will pay one
half of his salary. Mr.. Hopkins will
teach one class In high school and
devote the balance of his time to sup
ervision. This same rule of combined
supervision and teaching one class has
been adopted by Pleasant Grove and

will be several changes, however, some
getting married. some going into other
avocations and others accepting posi-

THE war in Europe will have the in
teresting distinction in military annals
of being the first great conflict of any
kind in which motor vehicles have been
largely employed for transportation
and field service, says the New York
World. Officers in automobiles led the
German advance into Belgium. Rapid
fire guns mounted on motor trucks have
added to the mobility of the German
attacking force. Private automobiles
have been Communicated everywhere
and pressed into service for scouting
purposes. Three hundred Paris motor
buses were dispatched to the front to
carry food and ammunition to the army
and London buses have been sent to
the continent for similar military uses.
Altogether tens of thousands of motor
vehicles, from taxicabs to ponderous
vans, have been seized by the army
authorities in all the belligerent coun-
tries and utilized for warfare.

CHILE enjoys practically world s
monopoly in the production OF nitrate,
and its use is constantly growing. In
1913 nearly 1900, 900 tons were shipped
to various countries, and went to IN
crease the productiveness of the soils
of many different nations. Much OF 1t,
also, went into powder which is now
working much havoc perhaps on the
very fields where it was used as fertll-
izer. The Chilean nitrate beds are
found in a strip of country about 5OO
miles long, at distance varying from
fifteen to ninety miles from the Pacific
coast. The deposits lie in great beds,
or strata, and the product is easily
mined. The use of nitrate as fertll-
izer was discovered by a Scotchman IN
1916. He lived near the nitrate fields,
and spreading some of the soil over his
garden discovered the wonderful effect:
But tradition has it that the Incas OF
Peru and some of the natives OF Bo--
livia knew of the fertilizing value OF
nitrate of soda found in this locality,
and it is supposed that they knew how
to produce some beneficial results from
the soil by using it.

A New Species.

Charles r. Knight, the artist, whose
reproductions of dinosaurs and crea-

over, prefers, however, to be known
as a painter and sculptor of modern
animals. He has worked from the liv-
ing model as much as possible. and
this has taken him to the zoos il
many cities. He was telling his expe-
riences at the zoo in Washington.
"One afternoon an important looking
negro came along with his best girl, J"
he said They stopped for a minute

a EfMite,"

The difficulties experienced by our
forefathers in trying to reckon money
in very small proportions appear in
the various values given to a mite"
in the sixteenth and seventeenth cen
tury books of commercial arithmetic.
The original mite" seems to have
been a third of Flemish penny, but
the use OF the word for the widows
coin of the New Testament made its
regular English meaning half far
thing. and some old people may re-
member applying the name to the
short lived nineteenth century coins of
that value. In those old arithmetic
books mite stands for various val
nes not represented by actual coins,
but obviously used in reckoning. A
work of 17O6 makes it one-twelfth of a
penny, two sixteenth century books
one-sixth of farthing, and in 1874
Jeakes arithmetic made it as little as
one sixty-fourth OF a penny.-London
Chronicle.

THERE is one thing about E. L. Phil
ipp and the platform of square-toed
principles he went to the people on
that impresses every sincere voter.
Neither the man nor his platform are
the result of the scheming of place
holders. Not one of the nearly six
thousand office holders in Wisconsin
gathered at that Madison convention to
name the Philip ticket. Clearly and
Enthusiastically was it all the voice OF
the people who don't hold office in
mighty protest against the burdens i'm
posed by those who have prostituted
public trust to private pelf. AS such
it will stand, continually growing big
ger and stronger till the election No.
vember 3rd. That superb quality OF
sincerity radiates the whole Philip
movement. For that reason the pro
gressive politician can't understand 1T.
He has been playing the double act so
long that he can't imagine how any
thing else than political hypocrisy can
make its way with the people. Yes,
the Phillip ticket and all that belongs
to it is honest. ''And therein is the
hiding of its power. Fort Atkinson
