In comforting the degree of Doctor
of Laws on Governor Gates President
Benton was not quite so ELUSIVE as
he was two years ago when he per-
formed a similar function in behalf
of Governor Fletcher, but his words
in addressing Governor Gates were
sufficiently cordial to please the gov
ernOr's most ardent admirer. In con-
ferring the degree President Benton
spoke as follows:
Upon you, Charles Winslow Gates,
unobtrusive citizen, patron to sound
learning, faithful layman in the
Church of God, advocate of temper

MANY USES FOR GUNS.
They Have Even Been the Means at
Times Of Saving Lives.

They Have Even Been the Means at
Times Of Saving Lives.
Guns would not go even If warfare
were abolished. For example, the sig
nal gun OF a ship Is used to announce
her arrival on coast. i would be
difficult to find an equally effective
substitute. The l o'clock gun, too,
which is fred by electricity from
Greenwich observatory, is the most ef-
fective means possible of announcing
the exact time 10 surrounding towns,
while nothing more impressive could
be found than the minute guns fred
for public mourning and the salute CIV
EN- on occasions Of public rejoicings.
Guns save lives as well as take them.
In desert countries, where 1t Is difficult
to collect water out OF q mere damp
ness Of sand, gun barrels are often
sunk into the ground. BY this means
moisture Is collected In the bore and
many lives have been preserved by a
timely draw at the muzzle.
A SLAYER, captured with a crew Of
slaves IN the tropics, was once put in
charge of a prize crew. During the
voyage water ran out and slaves, slav-
ers and prize crsw were all dying Of
thirst. Then n sergeant hit on a bril-
liant idea. Taking all the available
gun barrels, he plugged up the breach
ends of a few Of them, filled their
bores with sea water and set them end
up among the Goals of the galley fire.
Then as the steam rose he ran it
through the other gun barrels till 1t
cooled. The cooling steam collected In
the shape of excellent fresh water and
by this means scores of lives were
saved.-Pearson's Weekly.

Oh, weary mothers, mixing dough,

Your lips would smile, Il know

No hurry, no worry, no boiling pot,
No waiting to get the oven hot,

What buzzing and whirring,
A fluttering and stirring,
Among the honeysuckles and morn
ing glory vines.
We fancy by the humming,
There is something merry coming
And hold our breath moment to
listen to the signs.
All, yes, it is the airy
And beautiful bird fairy,
The lovely little humming bird
that feeds among the blooms;
And his jacket is as green
AS the leaves upon the bean
And scarlet as the flowers are his
caps resplendent plumes.
Whatever be their name,
They are fairies just the same,
And we Irvine the blooming winery
to lure them to our caves.
And baby, sitting under,
Looks up with happy wonder,
To see the little brides go whirrins
through the leaves. Burleig
