A tool user is the most important being in the world. The ability to use tools and to communicate ideas are the two things that distinguish men from animals.
 All the progress in the world depends upon tools. Civilization is product of tools.
 A hammer in mans hand is really an extension of his hand. A telescope is an ex- tension of his eye.
 Whether it be saw, multiple ma chine that performs half dozen operations at once or great factory organization no tool can accomplish anything of itself. It has to have brain to direct it. The greater the intelligence and the skill of the man handling the tool, the more money he can earn.
 But some of the ablest tool users are victims of fool users. Whether they sit in the presidents office of a great store, or work at bench, men masters of their own game are often willing to listen to some gift O gab per- son who persuades him to play his game.
 These selfish my-own pocket all the time gentry, fearful that the movement for the homes will interfere with their own greed, are trying to check it.
 They can't. We have made an honest, earnest start. Big men are unse1fishly giv- ing their brains and their hearts and their money to the problem.

TORNADOES TAKE LAO LIVES; FIVE
 STATES ARE HIT

Kansas City, June "A death list in excess of 140 persons was indicated by additional reports from communities In five states which were swept by torna- does.
 Early today the death of 126 persons in Arkansas, Missouri, Mississippi, Tennessee and Illinois had been re- ported with a number of others miss ing and believed dead and several hundred injured, some of them so se- rious1y that little hope is entertained for their recovery.
 Only 45 survivors have been accounted for in checking up the passenger list and crew of the Mississippi river pack ct Eleanor which overturned above Memphis when struck by the force of the storm. = At least 30 persons are be- lieved to have perished with the FL eapor, most of them negro deck hands. Forty persons were reported killed or injured near Cato, Ark, but it was impossible early today to com municate with the town or verify this statement.
 In the district around Poplat Bluffs, Ia, a severe toll was exacted by a tor nado, with 30 persons reported dead and still greater casualties feared in iSa1ated rural sections which have been unable to report.
 So far Arkansas has reported a total of 76 deaths; Missouri reported 30 h4SSISS4pPI 46Lh0SS00 Q WlCn a possibility of the number being in creased to 30, and Illinois one.

Tool Users and Fool Users

All of us must help We must be just as earnest and honest as they are in this which is the biggest thing in Bridgeport right now for our whole future turns on it.
 We must get together. We must or ganize right down the line. We want real leaders of the various groups We want men who will work and fight for what is right, for fair play, and who make the rest of us fight with them.
 We want to start the steam roller of public opinion for the benefit of those who say Git can't be dOne' or Git will cost too much'' or Eve are too busy"
 Just now there should be only two divisions in Bridgeport those who want homes they are willing and able to pay for, and those who are not willing to do what they can to provide for these homes
 We shouldn't have much difficulty in getting together if we have enough sense to fill mustard seed.
 Remember it isn't philanthropy; its business, GOOD BUSINESS.
 When we get the solution to this homes problem and begin the ACTUAL WORK. there are lot of other things to be done.
 Let's make tools of money instead of letting money make fools of us. In- stead of trying to grab little more right now we are going to WORK to insure the PERMANENT PROS PERTTY.

TARM AND F1EESIDE declares

EARM AND FlErslDE declares
that stable flies. which differ
somewhat from hOuse6ies, are
exceedingly dangerous. Following Is
an extract from an article which con-
tains many interesting and important
facts about stable flies:
Most insects are destructive in their
earlier stagles, but these flies do most
damage when full grown. They bite
through the skin and suck the blood
of warm blooded animals. including
man. After piercing the skin the hy
gorges itself with blood, commonly
staying In position. until full fed for
the time, unless brushed of. In such
a case it 6ies to another animal. In

MAKING Things Hum In Rome.

The Romans had three recognized
methods of applauding-the bombus,
the imbrices and the testae. The word
bombus did not carry any allusion to
explosives. On the contrary. this form
Of applause was the most decorous. in
asmuch as it consisted merely Of a
humming or buzzing noise. Thus in a
way the Romans were the first ito
make things hum" in public assem-
bly,. The bombus was not the chief
feature the Romans had to offer in the
way Of applause. The imbrices meant
a demonstration made with the hollow
Of the hands. The testae meant the
striking together Of the Dat portions Of
the hands. From this we may con.
clude that the Romans clapped, but
there 10 no certainty on this point.

The 1almud.

The Talmud is the compendium of
ancient Jewish oral or unwritten law,
as distinguished from the Pentateuch
or written law. Its origin is coeval
with the return Of the Jewish people
from the Babylonian captivity, 536 b
c. Its compilation in Hebrew was be-
gun by the scribes, and by their sue
cessOrs the work was carried on till
22O b. c. The Talmud is a combination
Of prose and poetry and contains two
elements. legal and legendary. Its
morality resembles that Of the New
Testament. and its philosophy reminds
us very forcibly Of that Of the great
Plato.-New York American.
