The newly completed hospital Of the

contains one room built entirely OF
glass. 1t is divided into twelve COM

thru which the nurse can see the baby
at all times without going In. Each
compartment is ventilated separately

child having communicable disease

be said in his favor is that he was not
a whit worse than Villa, in whose be-
half the Wilson administration unS
horsed the Huerta dictatorship, or
CarranZa, for whom the President
overthrow Villa. Perhaps Huerta un-
derstood Mexico better than some of
our theorists at Washington. At any
rate, the eXiled dictator died with the
knowledge that conditions are no more
chaotic in Mexico to-day than they
would have been had he been per-
mitted to remain at the head of the
government, which must have been of
some satisfaction to the old warrior.
Huerta's brief rule was in large
measure like that of Diaz, who also
died an exile from the land over which
he ruled so long. The two had many
traits in common. but where Diaz was
strong, Huerta was weak. and Huerta
inherited all of the hatred for Diaz's
methods which drove the venerable
president from his country to die in
Europe.

TRAIN YOUR WEATHER EYE
Your Friend the West Wind
BY Frederic ]. Haskin

IF you are going camping or motor
ing, wait for a good west wind. If
Il you are about to embark upon a
momentous undertaking. pick out day
when the wind is blowing freshly from
the west, for that wind is one of your
best friends. 1t brings clear weather
and cool air laden with ozone. 1t lifts
your spirits, stimulates your energy,
fills you with pep.
The Importance of the west wind is
due to the fact that it is a messenger
of that form of weather activity known
to scientists as the ahtcyclone. This
anticyclone is great pyramid of cold
air which spreads out across the coun-
try like pancake on hot grfddle,
bringing GOODNESS, clearness and dry
ness wherever 1t goes 1t is responsible
for the clear, cold spells in winter and
for the best of our summer weather,
In this country the anticyclones al
most invariably form either in the
Northwestern States or in Canada.
weather originates.
Starting, then, in Montana or Canada,
the antcyclone moves across the coun-
try eastward or southeastward, spread
ing cold, dry air in every direction,
bringing the wealth of ozone from the
upper atmosphere down to the air we
mists. The west wind, therefore, is a
sure sign that the anticyclone is COM
ing
Whenever the wind shifts noticeably
from any other quarter to the west, you
may be almost sure that you are going
to have from two to seven days of fine,
clear weather. If the wind slowly shifts
from the west to the northwest, you
may know that the anticyclone is pass
ing north of you; for the cold air cir
culatin~ about its center in the same
manner as the hands of a clock, will
turn the wind in that direction. In that
case you may look for a spell of cold
or cool and clear weather which will
last until the anticyclone has passed,
as indicated by another shift of the
wind
In the same way if the wind gradu-
ally shifts more and more south of
west, you may know that the anti
cyclone is passing south of you. where
IL will not have so much effect and you
cannot be so sure of clear weather
So the anticycione is your real friend
in the matter of weather, and the west
wind is its most reliable precursor; but
indications as to whether it will be
these. Although anticyclone weather
should be clear. it is not generally al
together cloudless. The characteristic
clear weather clouds of summer are the
little billowy masses of cumulus that
look like the beaten white of an egg,
though they may be bit smudgy. on
the under side. These are harmless
little clouds and do not promise rain.
They indicate that the moist air has
risen until it reached a stratum cold
enough to condense II, whereupon it
desccnds to warm level and is dissi-

ROTARY CLUB AND THRIFT

TINE Harrisburg Rotary Club has
done a distinctly constructive
thing in making thrift part
of its prosperity day program, for
without thrift there can be no real
and lasting prosperity. To induce the
boys and girls of the High school to
think thrift and talk thrift and win
prizes by writing thrift is sowing the
seeds of wholesome living broadcast
in the community, because in large
measure the thrifty citizen and the
good citizen are one and the same.
Thrift is the surest and strongest
foundation of an empire" says Lord
Rosebury; so sure, so strong, so
necessary, that no nation can long
exist that disregards it."
As with nations so with individ-

Industrious reaps the reward of his

bought an old plow for fifty cents,
which he repaired and sold for So.

patcd again before it gathers enough
Iorce to FORM storm or even a shower.
In winter. fewer clouds form during
anticyClone weather and they are the
lattened wtspS called stratus.
Occasionally during the summer the
cumulus clouds will cause light
fair weather. In winter the same
phenomenon takes the form of a furry
of snow. The furry is never the be-
ginning of a storm, but. is the sure
torerunner of clear, cold weather.
Both the shower and the furry are due
TO the fact that the approaching cold
air OF the antiCyclone reaches the upper
levels nrst. condensing and precipitat-
ing the vapor.
In general, if the weather is to con-
tinue fair, clouds should grow fewer
should break up into smaller pieces
rather than combine, and the higher
cIear chew rSe day the better the chances for
brilliant blue sky behind them. A bright
blue sky, with many white clouds,
promises better than milky sky with
There is one other indication in the
Sky that you can pretty confidently re-
ly upon. That is it's color at sunset and
sunrise. Unless you are a milSman or
have the habit of staying out very late,
you probably seldom seen the sun rise,
but there is nothing to prevent you
sunset is red and all other signs are
a clear day to follow. But If the sun
rises in red sky, it is an almost equal
ly certain precursor of storm.
The reason for this is that the sky
looks red when there is a good deal of
moisture in suspension which has not
been condensed. lowering in the form
of invisible droplets instead of falling
as rain or dew. These droplets in the
atmosphere act on the sunlight like
glass prisms, breaking it up into the
primary colors, with red predominant
ing. Hence the red sky.
1t would seem that a red sunset
should indicate coming storm, since
the redness is due to the presence of
moisture in the air. But this is not the
case, because the cool of the evening
sunset time-is the moment most favor
able for the condensation of atmos-
pheric moisture. If there were any
large quantity of water in the air, it
would gather at sunset into a gray
mist, or even fall as rain. A red sun
set shows that there is just enough
moisture in the air to break up the
sun-rays, and no more.
On the other hand, a red sunrise is
a precursor of storm In an ordinary
cool night, all the atmospheric moisture
should leave the air as dew or frost,
and leave a dry air in the morning II
the air is still wet enough to turn the
sun-rays red, it shows that a layer of
moist air above the earth has held
down the days heat This heat keeps
the frost and dew from forming and
high moist stratum will probably come
down as rain or snowstorm.
