Wartime Games In Paris.

Nearly all tie kids of 1916 have q
father or brother ut the front. They
live in an atmosphere OF heroism. All
the little folks-of the lycee, the
common schools, and even of the kin
dergarten-play soldier in the streets
and In the parks. You see them ct
their war plays such as Willette has
pictured ut Rue st. Vincent de Paul cor
ner much TO our delight, ingenious
plays In which it is hard to take the
part of Boche, and in which justice
would demand that each In turn took
that detested part--but is there ever
any justice, even here?
All, the tiny ramparts and trenches
that have been built by boys and girls
this year on the glistening sands of
the beaches, smoothed by the receding
tide, only to be leveled when the
tide came in!s
The girls in these war games usually
serve as Red Cross sisters; they care
for the wounded and nurse them with
jam and make-believe bandageS. Or
else they are godmothers, writing jolly
letters to the brave boys at the front.
But there are some, however, who are
never satisfied unless they, too, can
carry toy musket and take part in

CELLO PLAYING HARD WORK
Experiments Show That Four Tons of
Energy Are Necessary to Play
Single Selection.

A simple air played on the violon-
cello calls for q total expenditure of
energy equal to two and three-Quarter
pounds per note or more than four tons
of energy for the single selection, notes
Popular Science Monthly. This is
vouched for by Prof. Poffenberger Of
Columbia university, who made some
experiments In his laboratory with the
aid of the famous Dutch 'cellist
Michael Penha.
A special apparatus is necessary to
conduct the tests. Against the surface
of revolving carbon cylinder is sus-
pended chalk point which is actuated
by slender wire attached to the
musicians finger. At each pressure
the tension vibrates along the COM
municating connection and records the
energy expended.
At recent test Michael Penha at
times raised the point to a distance
equaling three pounds In weight, that
being the record of the forefinger. The
pressure alone required to produce the
enthusiastically luscious tones of a
simple Bach aria averaged two and
three-quarter pounds per note. The
total energy expended amounted TO
9,414 pounds, or more than four tons.
This same amount Of energy would
be sufficient to carry laborer through
his entire days work. Yet it took but
five minutes for the artist to exert the
same amount of force.

WHY DO BOYS LEAVE THE FARM?
By JAMES J. WHITE

crime. There never was time when
the individual did not stand for lot
more out in the country or small town
than in the big city.
Why then do the boys leave the
farm? There are severa, reasons:
l. This is an age of unrest. We do
not stop to think that our present
prosperity and happiness depend upon
what our fathers and our grandfathers
have done. Changes are looked upon
rs improvements.
:. Some young men have q special
leaning toward other business.
3. They become dissatisfied with
their present surroundings. They see
the difficulties OF the business in which
they are engaged. but do not apprecia-
ate the difficulties of those with which
they are not acquainted
Here are several reasons why boys
should not leave the farm:
|. Farming is the most independent
life. Farmers are their own masters.
,. No business in which you get so
large return for the investment.
3. No business in which YOU find so
many leisure hours.
4. No business in which success is
So assured
.. No business in which there is a
better chance to GO.
Not long ago the Farmers Breeze
published an article on this subject.

GOVERNOR WAS NOT ANNOYED
Reason Why Massachusetts Chief Ex-

ing Mistaken for Butler.

Here's a good one that Ex-Governor
Walsh of Massachusetts told on him
self at dinner given TO some of his
friends in Washington recently.
Some months ago, while he was gov
ernor, Mr.. Walsh was guest at re-
ception given by Mrs. Mabel Hunt Sla-
ter in Boston.
The governor arrived late and was
not. introduced TO all of the guests
because of their large numbers. Some
time in the early hours of the morn
ing Archie Roosevelt approached him
and said:
John. will you please get me nap
kin?'
Certainly" Governor Walsh said,
keeping a grave face, "in a minute,
sir"
The governor promptly found the
napkin for young Roosevelt and smil
ingly handed ii TO him. Something in
the governors smile made Roosevelt
suSpicious. A well-trained butler does
not smile.
Aren't you the butler?" he asked,
doubtfully.
NO, my name is Walsh; am gov
ernor of Massachusetts" was the re-
ply.
Roosevelt apologized profusely.

B0ASTFUL IGNORANCE
Observation-Disclosures
BY DR.. SAMUEL G. DIXON
Health Commissioners of Pennsylvania.

The boastfulness of ignorance is or
dinarily not worthy of comment, but
when 1t jeopardizes the health of other
people, IL Is perhaps worth while TO
take up the cudgels.
There is n class of individuals who
pooh-poOh all warnings regarding mat
tiers of hygiene, and usually end their
assertions by informing You that their
srandfathers never paid any attention
20 such nonsense" and what's more
they never have, and here they are
alive and we'll TO show for IL. Sta
tistics, however, show that these peo-
pie who violate the laws of nature
often meet an untimely death. I'm
fortunately, some give an ear To such
foolish Boosting and run headlong
into danger.
The transmission of disease by
germs is most frequently attacked by
the ignorant. Those people who ac-
cept without comment the statement
that the world revolves upon its axis
as q part of the solar system, and
thousands of other things which they
are incompetent to work out for them
selves, will buster about the absurd
ity of germs causing disease. That
typhoid fever, diphther!a, yellow fever,
tuberculosis. anthrax. malaria and
pneumonia are caused by germs has
been proven, just as definitely as the
fact that the world is round.
Fortunately, exposure to disease,
even OF a communicable type does not
always mean that the individual so
exposed will contract Ii. This is the
reason that the boaster
