Utah Furnishes Expo Material.

The state of Utah has made another
record, of which it is very proud. 1t
seems that all the gypsum used In the
construction of the San Diego fair
buildings and so per cent of that used
for the San Francisco fair came from
the quarries near Nephi, Utah. 1t Is
now well known that gypsum is one of
the Oldest building materials. 1t was
used extensively in the building of
the pyramids and very largely in the
construction of the monumental archi
tectural edifices reared by the Greeks
and the Romans.
The product of gypsum used in the
fair buildings is known as staff" and
was cast to initiate the famous Roman
travertine. OF its beauty a thousand
writer's have written. Utah is proud
that 1t furnished the material for the
exposition structures and proud that
it could have furnished the material
for the wonders of the ancients.

ALCOHOL CAUSE oE WAR.

DR.. Charles Gilbert Davis, eminent
physician, psychologist and scientist
of Chicago, says the great world war
is but the logical outcome of "gener-
atoms of alcoholic saturation, with
the resultant deterioration of the hui
man race and degeneration of the hui
man mind"
Il have taken kennel of Great
Danes" says the doctor, magnificent
animals, and given them just tea
spoonful of alcoholic beverage daily,
mixed with their foods, and then bred
them, and carried on the experiment
for five or six generations, until the
Great Danes had dwindled physically
to small size. and their even disposi-
lions had changed until the product
has been snarling, whining, fighting
ours. How much more SO this must
be with humans extended over thirty
or forty generations. The parallel
may not be pleasant, but it is a nice
one, and that is what has occurred in
Europe"

medium-sized flag requires but little
more work than a small one, and for
this reason l have shown in Fig. 1

Alcoholism, propagated by every ma

Insurance people have come to the
definite conclusion that booze and In.
surance mix about as well as oil and
water" remarked Edward A. Woods,
president of the National Life Under
writer's association. I'm other words"
said Mr.. Woods, "a drinking man Is a
mighty poor risk. Cold figures have
proved to us positively that the drink
ing man-even the moderate drinker-
has less than half as much chance to
live out the life of his policy as the
teetotaler. The mortality of the
teetotalers between the ages of thir-
ty-five and fifty years, when men are
of the most use to society, is only Sc
per cent of the average mortality.
Not even the war has been the sub
ject Of as much consideration among
