Finding the Altitude

Altimeters or Paragraphs used by aviators
to measure the heights to which they ascend
Both of these instruments are constructed on
exactly the principal the aneroid baro meter
They depend upon air pressure. At sea level. where
the air is much compressed by it's own weight the
air is about Is pounds to the square inch, but at
greater heights it becomes less. The barometer is
governed by the pressure and indicates the height
above sea level.
There are many forms of barometers The sim
plest is bent like a very long letter and partly fill
ed with mercury. The upper part is closed, and the
space above the column of mercury is vacuum
The lower or hook end of the tube is open and sub
ect to the pressure of atmosphere. As the pressure
becomes less rising above the surface, the mer-
curry in the long part Of the tube falls The extent
of the fall indicates the height.
Airplanes use one of these instruments men,
toned which practically self-registering barom-
eters, and when the arplanes comes down the in
strument shows how high it has been carried.-Ex.

Animals in Fire

Most animals afraid of fire, and will fly from
it in terror. To others there is a facinaton about
flame, and they will walk into it. even though
tured by the heat
horse in a burning stable goes mad with fear,
but dog is cool in fire at any time. He keeps
his down to the floor, where the air is purest,
and sets himself calmly to finding his way out. Cats
in fire cry pteously. They hide their faces from
the light and crouch in corners. When their res
lifts them they rule quite docile and sub
dued. never biting scratching.
Birds seem to be hypnotized by fire, and keep
perfectly still; the loquacious parrot in fire
has nothing to say. Cows, like dogs, do not show
alarm. They easy to lead forth, and often find
their way out themselves.-Ex.

Spiking the Guns

The expression "spiking guns is survival
from the day when all that necessary to do to
put gun of action provided. of course that you
had access to it was large nail spike and ham
mer. You simply drove the nail into the touch hole
at the breech If the nail was long enough to
round at the end on the bottom of the bore much
the better. 1t is just simple perhaps simpler, to
put modern gun out of action All you want is
hammer The breech block of the modern gun is
held closed by threads After the breech
block is shut shell turn of two three inches
engages the threads. By knocking bur on these
threads you prevent them engaging. Any attempt
to fire the gun without the breech block being per-
fecty closed would, of course be of material assist
ance to the enemy.

1t is perfectly regardless of what you did yesterday

1t is perfectly regardless of what you did yesterday
so long you try today.
To feel this steady shining OF the Light its
steady encouragement after fall, is to obtain the
forgiveness of sins The effects of past sin if
you do not let yourself be paralysed be convert
ed into stepping stones and lessons instead of
naming as fear ins pring clouds.
Always to go forward; always to look at yester-
day if it's deeds were the deeds of another man,
by which you may learn, but whose shadow you
refuse to tolerate, to count each day new birth
with clean ,past record; and to know that the Light
is constantly present whether at the moment you
feel it not: to try hopefully if you had
had failure-these the keys of peace and
growth.-STUDENT, in The New Way.

Cut Loose From Yesterday

Yesterday to men who are trying to progress
spiritually, is often chilling and despair breeding
phantom. How can a man who did what 1 did
yesterday, ever be clean enough to approach the
Light"
So he sits in hopeless darkness, and permits the
of yesterday, specter of memory, to lead him
into deeper sins today.
Tomorrow it may be, the clouds clear of them
selves. and he makes start. But he has not
gained that strengthened will that he might had he
but dssipated the clouds HIMSELF and refused to
be paraysed today by what he did yesterday. That
paralysis, chill. fear. is mist thrown up between
him and the ever present Light. 1t is thrown up by
the intelligent evil part of his nature. the part that
led him yesterday into his failure. And the purpose
of the throwing is TO keep him in bondage to it.
Let him therefore take heart of grace disap-
point this evil. purposeful thing in him, and pro-
ceed with today calmly and hopefully if he had
never known any yesterday or had never known any
defeat in his struggle to do right.
II is not usually known how easily this fear or
chill is to be disspated Get up suddenly and do
with all your force the disagreeable duty lying
at hand Do it with royal courage; keep your sense
of humor alive while you do it. Joviaity is COM
pete dissipator of fear The difficult is the duty
the greater the opportunity to do it in the spirit of
the old Morse warriors when they rushed into battle
You will find your enemy routed in five minutes.
And you will find that the Light present all the
time, merely waiting for you to clear away the msts.
