CAMEL RIDING NOT EASY JOB
Beginner Has Feeling Akin to Seasiek-
ness Owing to the Peculiar Gait
of the Animal.

Camel riding is learned only at the
price of suffering. This is because
of the peculiar gait of this animal,
which produces a feeling akin to that
Of seasickness, owing to the swaying
motion of the body caused by the fact
that the two legs of one side move
simultaneously.
This animal thrives only in desert
regions. And herein lies its usefulness
to man, for by its means alone is he
enabled to cross barren tracts other
wise impossible. This ability to live
without water and with little food for
long periods is due to two natural
reservoirs. Water is stored in special
pockets in the lining of the stomach,
while large mass of fat is stored on
the back, forming the characteristic
hump-though, according to popular
belief, it is here that the water is held.
Though it will manage to subsist for
long periods on the thorny scrub such
as forms the only vegetation of desert
areas, and with very little water, its
complacency in these matters may be
Overtaxed, as was disastrously shown
during the first expedition to Khartum.
Two other factors in the adaptable
ity of the camel to a desert life have
to be taken into account. These are
the feet and the nOstrils. The first
named have but two toes, protected by
very thick, horny pads to resist the
burning sand; while the nostrils are
long and slitlike, and can be closed at
will, thereby enabling the animal to
survive the awful sandstorms which sc
frequently endanger the lives of trav,
elers.

SLACK-WATER PERIOD OF DAY
TWO O'Clock in Afternoon, Declares
Writer, Is for Some Reason a
Time of DisiIIusion.

Each period of the day has its own
subtle quality, which no arbitrary re-
arrangement of our own hours of work
and rest can destroy. And two o'clock
in the afternoon is a time of disillu1
sion, a time when a man has neither
great faith nor profound convictions,
writes William McFee in the Atlantic.
The morning is gone, the evening too
far away. Even teatime seems at an
immense and tragic distance. 1t is the
slack-water period Of the day. And it
is the period when a man may perhaps
experience, in the space of fash, a
peculiar sensation of being an impos-
tor! 1t is, suppose, in such moments
that generals, commanders, chief en-
gineers and the like jump overheard
1t is a sensation extraordinarily vivid
and brief. No external evidence is of
any avail to neutralize its dire and
dreadful omniscience. No personal
written record, no esteem of lifelong
friends, no permanent and visible ac
complishment can shield the sensitive
human soul, thus suddenly stripped
bare by some devilish cantrip of its
own mechanism. One feels a hollow
sham.

BETTER HOMES FOR NEGROES
Club Women Take ur investigation of
Housing Conditions in Delaware

Club Women 7 axe ur investigation of
Housing Conditions in Delaware
Housing conditions among the ne.
groes of Delaware will receive special
attention from the Federation of
Women's Cubs of Delaware this
year In most Delaware towns the
negroes live to themselves. a plan
which they would rather have and in
which the white people also concur as
being best for both races. 1t is not
segregation that is causing the trouble,
but the lack of attention of those who
own houses in the section. In must
colored settlements the houses are
owned by white people. and consider
ing the small buildings and cheap
material used are paying investments.
To make them pay even better, how
ever. many landlords are absolutely
neglecting the houses. They do this
because they have a chance to keep
the negro in the settlement. In many
eases several families will live in two
or three rooms because of the lack of
houses, and as several of the better
class of negro men have complained,
no matter what rent they are willing
to pay, they are unable to secure a
decent house to live in, while a house
with cow veniences is almost unheard
of. The better class are orly asking
| that a few decent houses be built at
moderate charges and made ready for
rent. To make the matter worse. il
is found in most sections that these
negro shacks are generally owned by
wealthy and respected citizens. At
Middletown the New Century Club has
done wonders along this line and have
arranged for neat cottages to be built
which the negroes can rent at fair
charges and they have also greatly
! improved the sanitary conditions in
the negro settlement of that town
1t was their report to the federation
at the recent session held in Reho-
both that moved the federation to
pledge to work along these lines, and
it is on that account that in many of
the small Delaware towns the women
of these numerous clubs will set ac-
lively to work this fall to see that
conditions are made better for the
negro and housing conditions are ma
terially changed.

quented. He guarded them carefully
during the day only, and was happy
when he had excited so much curios-
ity ,as to induce people to steal some
of them during the night. Then he
persuaded Louis XIV to wear bunch
of potato flowers at his buttonhole
in the midst of the court on a festal
day. Nothing more was wanting tN

Saving Money by Taxi.

1t was an ingenious husband who
sent his wife shopping in a taxi the
other day. A friend who happened to
see him say gOOd-by to her from the
curb remarked on his apparent ex-
travagance.
''It's economy, really" said the hus-
band. whenever she's in shop she'll
be worried to death because the taxi
is eating up money all the time, SO
she won't stay long enough to spend
half as much as she would if she went
on foot or In a street car"

ADVICE APPLIES TO

Which Schooling Equips Them
Many Leaving School.

Ames, Dec. 6.-That students Of draft
age now attending technical colleges
should continue their work In school
until called to the colors, by the draft
is the opinion OF Acting President E..
w. Stanton, of Iowa State College, who
received a message to that effect from
the war department, thru Hollis God
frey, chairman Of the advisory commit
now in Washington.
During the last few days, particu-
larly since the notice came out that
no enlistments would be made Of men
subject to the draft following Dec. 70.
"a steady stream Of inquiries have been
pouring into the Office OF the college
officials asking for information and
advice relative to going into some
branch of the army service. Many
students already have left school and
enlisted In the army or navy service,
while others have been making ip-
vestigations Is to the various branches
now open to enlistment.
Message Makes Explanations.
Following is the message which was
received by Acting President Stanton
in response to his inquiry in regard to
the situation:
Have just been authorised by Sec
rotary Of war to request you to inform
all your technical students that IL they
wait until drafted they can upon sum-
mons to draft camp take with them
letter from you stating their special
qualifications, such letter to be filed
with occupational census QUESTIONABLE
Of war department, under authority Of
this authorized telegram. The secrc-
tary OF war also authorizes me to say
that every effort will be made to use
each students special training In con-
nection with specialized occupation in
the army so as to afford technical stu
dents Of draft age fully as great an
opportunity thru the draft as II they
enlisted now.
