EASY TO ASCERTAIN DEPTHS
Which Hay Be Made Uss of in the Future.

Alexander Graham Bell, the in- ventor, told class of young students at Washington recently about put ting his head under water and strik- ing two stones together Beneath the surface. ''lt sounded as if man were hammering for all he was worth at my very ear"
 Next, he sent boy a mile away to strike the stones, and ''the signals came perfectly clear and distinct"
 In these little facts, and the other fact that sound goes over 5000 feet second through water to its 1000 feet through air, lay for somebody the germ of the submarine bell sig nals used on ships.
 Now, in exploring the earth's sur face as it lies under deep waters, a great deal of time and labor is ex- pended merely in ascertaining the depth.
 "Why." asks Professor Bell. as re- ported in the National Geographical magazine, should we not send down d sound instead and listen for an echo from the bottom ?"-thus ac- complaining in four seconds 6 work now taking sometimes more than four hours.
 And we should learn by the short CT method something of the nature of things below. "A fiat bottom should yield single sharp return, whereas an undulating bottom should yield multiple echo, like that heard when you fire pistol among hills. Y"

In the course of very interesting Ittle article entitled, Your Chil- dren's manners, in the Woman $ Home Companion appears the fol- lowing wise comment:

 "fhe place for a parent to begin training the manners of her child Is with her own manners. Whenever a mother complains to me of the bad manners of her child she Is uncon- sclously lodging complaint against herself as d mother. Of course . cer- tain amount of boisterousness and willfulness is to be expected, and

WHY NOT BUILD
 BETTER ROADS
GOOD ROADS ARE FAST EEcoM- ING A VITAL QUESTION IN
 EVERY COMMUNITY

With automobiles [ e ari n g through the country at thirty miles an hour, and the ordinary traffic increasing steadily, the matter of better country roads is becoming a vital question with every rural community in the country.
 The size of our crops is not the only thing to be considered when speculating upon the future pros perity of the nation. The matt CT of getting those crops tomark- ct in the quickest possible time and at least expense is one of the most important problems we have to deal with today.
 It is an indisputable fact that automobile traffic cuts great ruts in our country roads, tears them to pieces, and renders the haul ing of heavy loads of farm pro- duce doubly difficult.
 But there, is a remedy, and it should be applied.
 We should build better roads hard roads.
 If it requires a bond issue to do it, then let us have the bonds.
 The increased faculties for marketing products, and the in crease in acreage as a result of improved road conditions, would more tna offsetn the small inter- est on the bonds.
 It is a cold, sane, hard headed proposition for the material vel fare of the whole community, and should be taken up and car ried through to completion by the proper authorities without loss of time.
 Wherever you find high grade country roads, there you invari- ably find a prosperous class of people.
 We need them here, and we can accommodate all of the pros p9rity that follows in their wake.

WARM UP TO THE EA2aER

Mr. Town Man, how many farmers around here are you ac- quainted with, and with how many are you on friendly terms?
 Don't you know that our farm CTS are one of the greatest and most valuable human assets of this community, of this town?
 Don't you know that without them we would have no town to speak of, that we would be just 8 dot on the map, or not on it at all?
 And don't you think it is to our interest-to your interest to know the farmer better, to make friends with him, to give him a genuinely hearty welcome every time he comes to town?
 Shouldn't we make him feel that this is his town, as we'll as ours?
 There is not a higher type or more energetic class of farmers in existence than those of our own community.
 Let's get close to them, and stay close.

soERs TC FIGHT Eh FRANCE

Having checked rebellion in their own race; having pressed through Waterless wastes, taken stout forts and beaten the Kais- CTS troops planted on their bord- CTS ready for war; having added to the empire a land as va as Germany and the United King dom combined, Gen. Botha and the Boers, it is said, will set out for the fighting line in France.
 Whether or not they offer this supreme sacrifice, what they have done is amazing. In 1900 they taxed the power of England to subdue them and called out for that purpose forces greater than have yet fought for King George. They drew the world wide sympathy expressed in Queen Wilhelmina's reception of Boer delgeates, the Kaiser's tele- gram to Kruger, and blanks n the Republican and Democratic platform in this country.
 Less than twelve years after peace was made, a new issue came. which for the Boers was simply: Should the Cape conquer c erm an Southwest Africa or be annexed to it? If, with their history, they preferr. ed to remain British subjects, ii was because Great Britain-or a party there have learned some lessons of political freedom.
 They learned from us. Eng lands ablest and noblest mer favored the American Revolution when that meant business, social and political ostracism. They learned from Canada, when, after Papineau's rebellion, the report that meant Canadian free dom earned for Lord Durham the abuse of silly lordlings. They

he had experienced streak of bad luck when he decided to turn moonshiner. He had a nor tga g e on his mountain home and the man who held the mortgage closed in on him when he could not liquidate the indebt- edness, Jones said. Then his son died and he was completely broke up." He tried to make 8 living by honest means, he said, and failed. At last he turned moonshiner, or started to, to make a little money"
 The mountaineer said he bought 8 twenty-galIon oil can, cut off the top and inserted a hardwood plug on the bot tom. This served as his still. For a worm he secured a piece of cast iron pipe from 6 SEW mill and bent it around a tree to make a coil. Jones further stated he traded a shot gun worth $8 for three bushels of corn meal. He made a mash and attempted to distill it.
