PRESIDENTS AND
VICE PRESIDENTS

Possibly you have forgotten some
of these incidents relating to presi-
dents and vice presidents OF the Unit
ed States.
Washington was the one President
to be elected unanimously.
The only vice president to resign
was John C. Calhoun, who gave up
the vice presidency to become Unit.
ed States senator.
William Henry Harrison served the
shortest term as President, having
caught fatal cold the day he was
inaugurated and died exactly one
month later.
Impeachment was tried against but
one president and failed by one vote.
In the case, OF Andrew johnson.
Johnson was tailor and could not
read until his wife taught him how.
Five vice presidents became Presl-
dent by the death OF the President.
Tyler. Fillmore. Johnson. Arthur and
Roosevelt.
NO physician, preacher or Journal
LIST has become President.
Cleveland was the only President to
have someone else sandwiched be-
tween his two terms, Benjamin Harri-
son being the sandwich.
John Adams was not. only the Oldest
OF cS-Presidents when he died, being
more than 80, but lived the. longest
after leaving Office, about twenty Ave
years.
Relatively, Washington was the
richest President. but his private In
come was hardly equal to that OF
Roosevelt.
Colonel Roosevelt was the only vice
president to attain the presidency by
another's death and then be honored
by a reelection.

girls were present to hear the story.

parents and six sisters and on broth

1856 for Utah. They were eleven
weeks on the ocean, and buried 62
people in the ocean. They left Flor

City November Both. The trials and
hardships Of this company can never
be written, over three hundred OF their
number perishing on the way Her
father died before the journey was
half completed. leaving the girls and
mother TO pull the carts over 800
miles alone The day before the faith

haul him on tho cart; could only stop
long enough to dig the grave MS the
season was late and the company was
already on rations of ounces of
-four per day 700 miles from Salt
Lake City. Some nights they had to
travel as late as IL. and once until 2
o'clock a. m to catch up with their
company. The girls some, times wad-
ed streams up to their waists IN icy
cold weather and had their clothes
frozen on them before reaching camp

head of beef that had been killed.
They would carry II all day and have
a regular feast when II was boiled
into broth even If they did net have
any salt to put on 1t and only snow
water TO boil II in. One night an old
man of the party begged to get shelf

with his face frozen to the side OF the
tent. They had to help bury him
That morning 10 of their company
was buried Fires had to be built

SO that a grave could be dug to put
them all In. Once a company OF IN
valids, in charge Of a man who had
crossed the plains three times, got
separated from the company and most
of them were frozen. She testified to
the boys that although they had but
four ounces of -four per day and moth

ed God TO bless them for their sustain
ance, and that she never felt really
hungry, and that each day she heard
a voice whisper that "as your day is
so shall your strength be" which was
verify fulfilled.

experiment That the experiment
worked out well is evidenced by the
increased circulation of all three pa

giving the Cossacks land. space

The whole OF Central Asia and Tur-

trains the men for two or three years
and when the time of training has
been run through the authorities pro-
pose to them that they settle down
near the place where they have been
encamped. Land will be given them
free. They cen bring their sweet

Kirghiz and Chinese and other abo-

build houses for them and dig out
irrigation canals and plant poplars
and willows. A company OF Cossacks
accepts the government proposal, and
SO a new station is marked on the

MACHINERY BAD FOR NERVES
Bound to Wear Away Vitality il
Those Constantly at Work Amid
Perpetual Whir.

A great many men and women whit
work in busy factories, where there
is perpetual whir of machinery, are
facing as great hardships as any worl
can bring. Consciously or unconscl
ousy, the noise is wearing away theil
vitality just as a grindstone wears
away the steel OF the blade that |:
being sharpened.
There is a certain regular rhythm
in all the simpler kinds of work. This
is seen in the fact that most of then
have developed songs of their own
Sailors have their "chanties," sol
diers march to the beat of the drum
spinning, weaving and farming labors
have inspired songs and dances Mar
is in tune with nature, too, and while
the storm may produce awe it does
not fatigue the brain.
The rhythm of machinery however
is altogether too fat for human
rhythm, and the body never actually
becomes accustomed to IT, No matter
what may be mans natural pace, he
must follow the speed Of . nonhuman
power, which, like a tireless demon
drives him night and day. And, all
the while, the whir of the machinery
around him CRATES upon the brain un
ceasingly.
Sometimes we think we have got
used to 1t.
Not so. We may have become
dulled, but that is sign that some
thing is lost, some sensitive feeling
gone. 1t is sign of wearing out.
1t is the myriad voices Of the over
busy modern worlds machines that
are doing more than anything else tc
