Weather Prophets

The department Of interior in bulletin just

made by the Mesa Verde Indians OF Colorado
who last fall foretold our wet summer and now
say we shall have cold winter. The statement
follows:
The season SO far verifies the weather predic-
lions of the Indians who occasionally visit the
Mesa Verde National Park in southwestern Colo

hour longer than is necessary because OF their
dread of the little people" whom they be-

cliff dwellings that have made the Mancos Valley

rain all summer" So far they seem to have
predicted right.
And now they are again shaking their heads

Taking a Defeat

It is a bitter pill for defeated man to take
the verdict with smile. Recently the street car
company and its employees in Chicago became in
volved in strike. Arbitration was forced upon
both sides by militant mayor. Both agreed to
abide by the verdict. The verdict was handed
down by the arbitration board last week. and the
strikers received what they wanted-substantial
increase in wages. The president of the street
car company, of course, did not feel elated over
the return, but he kept his chagrin cloaked, and
in message to the carmen congratulated them
on their victory and asked them to show their
appreciation by giving the public better service
and by helping the company solve the transpor-

MOTORS IN ARMY SERVICE
Wonderful System Has Been Evolved
for Transportation OF Supplies
During the War.

Twenty thousand men are nov en-
gagged in the mechanical transport sec
ton of the British army service
corps on the continent. In addition
to the transport OF men. ammunition
and food. motors also serve for am
bulance work. dispatch services.
searchlights and gun carriers for anti
aircraft service. Among recent de-
velopments are the motor kitchens
and motor bath houses.
For reasons OF safety the railway
base must be kept well in the rear of
the battle line. But the motors prac.
tically continue the railway service
up to point from which horse trans.
ports or other motors can distribute
the supplies.
One OF the striking features OF this
war is the motor transport column.
With each vehicle keeping station.
about fifty yards apart. and running
to set speed limit, trains nearly a
mile long wind over the roads carry
ing the hundreds OF tons of food and
ammunition required by the army.
A well-arranged traffic systo:n. with
motorcycle dispatch riders, keeps
these huge conveys under control. and
their smooth working is a guarantee
that the men In the trenches are well
supplied. The vast fleet OF motor ON
nibuses forms an important part OF
this transport army, and on occa-
sion. says the Sphere. they are used
to carry men from point to point when
rapid movement Is required.
Eyewitness graphically describes
the operations of the motor transport

has at different times been charac-
terized as war of high explosives,
a war OF howitzers. q petrol war. In
two senses can the struggle on land
be called n petrol war. The employ.
mont OF this substance In the internal
combustion engine has rendered avia.
ton possible. and has also Immensely
simplified the work necessary for the
supply of the army. Indeed to such
an extent has mechanical propulsion

the place OF animal traction, that the
change caused may not unfairly be
compared to the revolution brought
about by the introduction OF railways

and you can join him"
So 1t was arranged, and a week later
Sam and the other boy who had won a
state prize set out on their visit to the
capital OF the United States.
They were both wanting to save as
much money as possible. so they didn't
ride In the Pullman or take their meals
on the train When they got sleepy
they slept leaning back in their seats,
and when they got hungry they bought
sandwiches for 10 cents each. When
they arrived I'm Washington they had
not spent more than 81 each above
railroad fare.
It would take long time to tell all
about Sans visit TO the capital. But
| It was by far the most delightful and
instructive visit he had ever made. He
and his comrade were met by a pro-
fessor from the agricultural depart
ment, and soon afterward they were
introduced to nine other boys who had
just arrived. These boys were win.
ners OF state prizes also, each one be-
ing the best corn raiser in his state.
First they were taken to sec the sec
rotary OF agriculture; then in a body
they visited the president and after
ward were shown all the wonderful
sights OF the capital They visited con-
gress and Mount Vernon. the home OF
Washington and all the vast buildings
of the departments and the Congress

saw all kinds Of animals. and the bo-
tanical gardens, where Sam was bewil-
dered and fascinated with the thou.
sands OF beautiful and strange plants.
When Sam returned home he had $40
left out Of the 500. With this he could
buy a pony for Florence's Christmas
and not have to use the money that he
had made from the crops. AS for his
mother, he had already decided to give
her his Jersey COW.
One day some time after he had re-
turned from his trip Sam sat on the
doorstep with bis account book and
pencil. The years business was about
over and he was figuring up how much
had been made on the little farm.
