The Orlando Reporter-Star says:
editor Benjamin thinks the Office OF
hotel inspector a needless expense to
the state. Probably the Star editor
hasn't thought of the good the inspec-
tor has done by way of sanitary con-
ditions in hotels improved, requiring
observance of the screening laws and
other health measures, to say nothing
of compelling the construction of fire
escapes. The travelling men were be-
hind the passage of this act, and they
are best qualified to say whether il
is needed, and if it has been worth
the money. Moreover, the hotel mer
pay for the maintenance of the job
and it really costs the state nothing.

PLoW Is MOST ANCIENT TOOL
Has Been Used by Man Since He First
Attempted to Make the Earth
His Servant

Three very ancient implements have
been used in human industry-tlae
pillow, the sword and the pen. OF the
three, the oldest is the plow. A his
tory of the development of this ag-
ricultural tool would take us back
through centuries to the time when
man began to subdue the earth and
make it his servant. Thousands Of
plow models are now to be seen in the
patent Office at Washington. These
tell US what has been done by invent
ors In recent years, but there is long
story back of these plows.
From his study of Babylon brick,
In the museum of the University of
Pennsylvania, Doctor Clay concluded
that he. had found true picture of
the first pillow, which was invented by
Abraham. For his proof that Abra-
ham was the inventor of the pillow,
Doctor Clay refers us to the Book of
Jubilees," which was published in the
second century B. G. This book says
that the Babylonians were punished
because they had yielded to satan
and that tie form or their punishment
was that the ravens came and ate up
the grain they had sowed in the fields
Abraham devised an instrument that
should SOW the seed in a furrow, In
order that it might be covered up SO
that the birds of the air could not eat
it. The apparatus shown on the an
cient brick is a sort of combination
pillow, planter and harrow. 1t required
three men to operate it. When the
people sowed according to Abraham's
commands, they feared neither the ra'
vens nor the birds. Whatever the
value of the story In the "Book OF
Jubilees," the brick, at least, gives 8
picture Of perhaps the most ancient
tool used by man.

Perhaps the prettiest fashion that
has so far marked the entrance OF
America into the war is the grouping
of the Allied flags in all appropriate
places. A bunch of them fiuttering
from an auto makes particularly
good effect. The flags of America
France and Great Britain are the fav-
orites, and group of three or more
always contains them. Next are Italy
and Russia, and some contain the en-
tire half-score down to little Cuba.

President Wilson approves the ain
craft program which will be present
ed to Congress this week. 1t will
provide for the building of $4,000 air
planes and the training of thousands

utterly impossible for any other coun.

aircraft, and if our country succeeds
in the enterprise it will be able to en-.
tirely smother German resistance.

ING Greeks made the owl the en-
blem of wisdom. Shakespeare makes
the witches add the wing Of an owl to
their caIdron Of deadly potion, and
SIT was the owl that shrieked, the
fatal beIlman" For centuries the owl
was accused of such evil practices as
Turing hunters into dangerous swamps
and causing the bride to commit sui
eide Just "a hours before the time set
for the wedding. Napoleon exhorted
his soldiers to sleepless vigilance with
the command: "Sleep with the owls
and get up with the Iarks."

Senator Bryan and Governor Cats

Senator Bryan's primary measure

ture, and he has never objected to a
change in anything the people pro-

Cracks In Plaster.

When we painted our kitchen, we
found a number of cracks in the
plastering that had to be filed. A
painter told US to use plaster of
paris mixed with some of the paint
we were using. 1t does not set as
quickly as when mixed with water,
and it does better than putty for such
work. For mending the cracks in a
white ceiling, where the heat had
caused the white coating to peel off
we mixed the plaster of paris with
turpentine and oil. and were sur
prfsed TO find how we'll it covered the
unsightly places.-Exchange.

Alfonso, king of Spain, is mighty

pie will have hard work to find bet

1t is impossible to judge of the
Russian revolution by the revolutions
in America and France. The Rus
slams are not like any other people,
and the circumstances are different
from those accompanying any other
revolution. It's the Stars opinion
that Russia will stay with the Allies
and that next year it will take the
offensive more vigorously than ever.

The demand for reprisal for air
raids on England meets little favor
with the Allied generals. They say
that bombs are too valuable to be ex-

the fact that Zeppelin and airplane at

towns have not been of any military
advantage to the Teutons.
