BOUNDARY LINES.
A Clearing s75 Miles Long Separates
Alaska From Canada.


Boundaries between countries, states
and counties and between cities and
the country surrounding them are
marked in various ways. Sometimes
1t Is by stone post or monument; Of
ten county is separated from an ad
joining county by public road, which
Is surveyed purposely on the county
line.
In some of the southern states coun-
ties which allow cattle to run at large
are often separated from those which
do not by a fence. The boundary be.
tween Alaska and Canada Is marked
by clear strip In the woods S75 miles
long.
When a highway passes from one
country into another the traveller is
made aware Of the fact by the customs
officials Sometimes also, as in France,
q tax is collected on country produce
entering the cities. But In thinly set
tied sections of the United States the
boundaries between counties and even
between states are not always marked
and, though known to the inhabitants.
are often not to be recognized by a
stranger
One notable instance Of a marked
boundary Is the great wall of China,
which extends for distance of more
than 1900 miles along what was once
the frontier of that empire.-Christian

FOUR POSTER BEDsTEADS.
A Legacy From the Days When Peopi.

Slept In Boxes.
In medieval times, when life was
very Insecure. 1t was usual for people
to sleep on bed which was surround
ed by sides of boards with strong posts
at the four corners These sides con
tanned sliding doors. which could be
fastened inside.
When men retired to rest they took
a weapon with them. If attacked in
the night they were aroused by the
noise made by the crashing in of their
wooden defense and were able to de-
fend themselves.
When the law became strong enough
to protect human life the sides of the
bedstead were gradually dispensed
with, but the four posts remained. The
boXlike bedstead still survives In the
rural parts of Scotland and is almost
necessary where the earthen floors and
imperfect ceilings cause much damp

Like a Scene From the Middle Ages.

The oldest and largest university In

read and write. The curriculum con-
sists of virtually nothing but theology
and canon law, the final examination

BRILLIANT RECORD
in BASKETBALL
Delaware Year Closes With
Victory

The Delaware College basketball
team of 1917. of which Donald
Horsey of Dover, has been captain,
closed a successful season Friday
night at Newark, with a victory
over Johns Hopkins, by score of
30 to IA. The schedule has been
trying, and in almost every game
the Delaware team has been out
reached in weight and height. But
it has scored clean victories over
such teams as those of Moravian,
by a score of 25-16, Ursinus, 1888,
Schuylkill Seminary, 1929, st.
Johns, 28-16, and of the score of
81 run up against the SO points
made by the swift and heavy Penn
State team, which had beaten the
big green five from Dartmouth A
%. Other victories were won by
Delaware over Philadelphia Col
lege of Pharmacy, Pennsylvania
Military Academy. and Drexel
The team lost to Pratt Institute
of New York, Lafay Lebanon
Valley, and in return games with
Schuylkill and Moravian, by such
scores as 31-24, 29-15, 1928. 34-27
which speak almost like victories
for the speed and dash of the
Delaware five.

New York is seldom thought CT
as manufacturing city, yet the
average city or town which boasts
of it's manufacture is silenced by
census figures that have recently
been made public. The value of
manufactured products in New

more than two and a quarter bill

The largest industry of the cit,
is that of the manufacture OF
clothing, and next to it comes
printing and publishing, with pro-
ducts valued at two hundred anC
fifteen millions. Here are a few
