Memories OF insects

Euglenae and practically all micro
scopic animalculae. even of the most
simple nature. have been found to
nave association OF ideas. or. better
associative memory. That is to say
by rewards OF food and punishment
of one sort or another, they learn
dehnite performances. In brief, they
associate the act with the conse-
quences. BedNugs and cockroaches.
no less than fica3 and plant lice. have

Proper Judgment.

AS William James points out In his
little book. It Is getting away from
ourselves that is our big task in liv-
ing, getting away from our own self
iish and biased point OF view. and
reaching out to the other fellow and
,sympathizing with the forces that give
him vitality that Is our vitality.
The spectators judgment is sure to
miss the root of the matter, and to
possess no truth. The subject Judged
knows a part of the world Of reality
which the Judging spectator fails to
see. knows more while the spectator
knows less; and, wherever there Is
conflict of opinion and difference Of
vision, we are bound to believe that
the truer side Is the side thar feels
the more. and not the side that feels
the less."

Bowl OF DEATH"

The latest thriller for amusement

called bowl of DEATH" which turns
from a horizontal to a vertical pos,.
ton and then back again as the rider
drives his motorcycle at high speed

vice appears in the Popular Mechan-

OF segments of perforated steel, is Is

In shape except for fiat section at
the center and a sharp inward curve
at the rim designed to furnish the
rider some degree of protection against
the danger of running off the edge.
When the motorcyclist begins his ride
the bowl is horizontal, with the open

tains sufficient speed to ride on the
vertical edge the bowl is slowly swung

Cape Cod Canal a Success.

The government test of the Cape
Cod canal has been declared q sue
cess. Two submarines made the trir
from Boston to Newport at the rate OF
eleven miles an hour. and at a great
saving of time. as compared with the
outside route. The eight-mile trip
through the canal was made in forty.
five minutes. and by using this pas.
sage the submarines saved six miles
Of distance and avoided much rough
weather. The Kiel canal was built
by the Germans at a cost approaching
sl0O.OO0O 900, mainly for strategic pur.
poses: yet it is a fact that the reduc.
tion CT distance between the German
base in the Baltic and the North sea
by this canal is little greater than the
gain to the American fleet. which
would result from the enlargement of

Not so very long ago the appear

the bed of the ocean suggests all iorts
cf mysteries connected with the un-
known depths. A British vessel once
had an uncanny experience in this con-
nectiCn.
The vessel was out twenty three
days from Manila to the Hawaiian is
lands. 1t was silent, dead-black
night. The lead showed a deep sea.
Suddenly those on board felt as though
they lad grounded.

marked that "a new continent was be-

himself well out of the way.
The air grew more oppressive every

side roll and word went round that the
ship was aground. Over went the
lead and came up covered with blue,
oozy mud. The Britisher was wal

bottom of the Pacific had been laid

thick mud. The sulphur fumes were
choking and all had to take refuge be

facing the probability OF a death by
suffocation. Suddenly they felt that
they were afloat The bank of mud

HORSE NOT YET OBSOLETE

Some prophets and sons of prophets
who predict that horses on the farms

mark their resting place, long before
their prophecies become fact. The in
PRODUCTION of the farm tractor will not.
as some believe. remove the horses
from the fields and from their pas
lures. Farm Machinery assert. The
advent of the street cars did not have
that effect upon horses, neither did the
bicycle nor automobile. Today there
are more horses in this country than
there were ten years ago, and prices
are considerably higher. The one
thing that the farm tractor will do is
TO supply the need of power on the
farms which horses cannot give. Take
away the farm tractors which are in
use today and several hundred thou
sand horses would be required to re-
place them, or il horses could rot he
had the lands would have to go nm
plowed and untitled. The number OF
tractors now in use will be multiplied
many times within the next ten wears
out there will be as many horses in
this country as there are TODAY. and
prices will be even higher than now.
Farm tractors are becoming a neces-
slty, Just as electric street cars have
become-the same as telephones have
supplanted the telegraph i'm a way and
have taken the place of messenger
boys and quick delivery of mail. No
one will agree that there are not more
miles Of telegraph wire in use TODAY

that there are fewer messenger bows
