SPECkLED TROUT FOR
CHEHAllS COUNTY STREAMS

Fifty thousand black speckled cut
throat trout are to be planted in
streams of Chehalis county within
few days. Game Warden l.. j. Esses
left Saturday for Walla Walla to
bring back the fry from the hatchery
at that place.
The plan is to plant 10000 of the
trout in one of the streams near Elma,
10000 north of Aberdeen, probably in
the Wishkah, and the other 10000
north of Hoquiam, part of them prob
ably in Stevens creek and the others
in Britain creek. Cold water is re-
quired by these trout and both Stew
ems and Britain creeks are suitable
for this variety of fish.

TO communicate with the outer world
by a kind Of explosion.
. II all atoms should burst their walls
simultaneously the whole universe
would I've dissolved In an instant.
The atoms that do disintegrate pass
from change to change. Within their
limits the foundations Of matter are
broken up: the distinctions Of the fun

things lose their nature and shift into
other things: uranium gives birth to
radium and to pOlOnium; radinm brings
forth hellnm. and the last transfOrma
ton OF pOlonium that has thus far been
observed is into p!"in lead. 1t is like
transmigration of atomic souls.
But this Is not the only consequence
OF the opening OF the world of the
atom. That opening releases energy IN
forms which we can recognize and
which some day perhaps we may b.
able to utilize.
Atomic energy is the magic lamp

FATHER STUMPED THEM.

A Test In Mental Arithmetic That
Worried the Students.
They had a schoolboy and schoolgirl
party at & brooklyn mans house the
other night. Father and mother were
permitted to mingle with the young
folks for awhile after the edge Of the
first fun had worn off, There were
games that the elder folks knew moth
ing about, and they sat like wallflow-
ers.
Finally game Of arithmetic was
started by boy who is considered the
best ciphcrer Of his class in the high
school. After several problems had
been given of an odd nature. over
which there were much laughing and
puzzling, father dared to speak up.
Said he:
Boys and girls, they used to give US
this example In mental arithmetic
when l went to school suppose 1t
will be easy for you, but it's the best
can suggest to take part in the game"
And he recited this couplet:
II third of six were three
What would fourth Of twenty be?
The score Of boys and girls present
went at it. They wrinkled their brows,
and they pursed their lips The use of
pencil and paper was not permitted.
The mathematician had not been
among the first to try an answer. He
was plainly little perplexed. He
asked to have the problem repeated
and wanted father to reassure him
that 1t was mental arithmetic exam.
