Howe's Travel Festival Coming.

After the food of impossible motion
picture thrillers with which film pro-
ducers persist in playing a patient pub
| lille, it is welcome relief to watch the
more wholesome pictures always pre-
scented by Lyman H. Howes Travel Fes-
tiyal which comes to the opera house on
! Thursday, Sept. 20. They are rare
treat not only because they palpitate
with the actualities of life and shun the
overstrained posing and sensationalism
of everyday dramatics, but also because
! they represent the highest achievements
In motion photography. 1t was Howe
who showed the world that the film was
not merely plaything, but a vital fac
tor as an educational medium, and he is
to be congratulated for maintaining, and
constantly advancing, the dignity and
destiny of his exhibition ON its high
plane The great prestige and success
of his attraction goes to prove that the
producer and exhibitor in this as in any
other realm of human endeavor, who
keeps on doing well, and knows how to
do little better each time, both wins
and maintains the confidence of the pub
lie by sheer force of merit, and the sue
cess of Howe's exhibition is plainly due
to this age old law.
Among the many features of the new
production may be mentioned n visit
aboard Uncle Sans new navy Some
where in the Atlantic; the life, training,
discipline, tactical exercises, etc, of mid
shipmen at the L. S. naval academy, An
napolis; climbing Mt. Blanc, the highest
Alpine peak; thrilling episodes during
broncho- breaking contests in the real
wild west; an imaginery battle in the
air" over London between a British avia
tor and raiding Zeppelin. A host of
merry making new animated cartoons
will be interpreted throughout the pro-
gram.-adv.

WASHINGTON COUNTY FARM
BUREAU ASSOCIATION.
Notes for Week Ending Sept. IS.

The various corn demonstrations that
are being weighed up and the maturity
calculated, are bringing out some very
interesting facts in connection with the
relative values of Me different varieties.
While the attendance az the meetings
has been fair. il seems TO me that the
value of the figures and weights offered
for inspection warrant more attention
from farmers who are depending TO a
great extent upon silage corn for their
dairy feed, Close attention 10 these
demonstrations will show where the kind
of corn can be raised that will tend to
cut down the amount of grain needed to
maintain the dairy.
The two nights of frost have cut Sc
riously into the value of the silage corn
crop. Had we raised the proper varieties,
with seed from the right locations, the
crop would have been much further adj
vaneed Mt this time and the loss would
have been materially less, With eondi-
tions as they are, the situation will war
rant your close attention to determine
whether your corn should be allowed to
stand for while or whether it should
be ensiled Immediately. Corn that has
reached the maturity where 30 per cent
of the ears are in the soaring stage will
probably be better off if allowed to stand
long enough for the corn TO harden more
for grain. In the case of the silage corn
where the frost has hit it hard enough
so that the stalks are breaking over near
the tops, the growth has probably nearly
stopped and the corn should be put in
the silo at once to save further loss from
evaporation.
| hope that all the fa<mers in this
county are reading in the daily and
weekly papers the regular item from the
office of f. S. Brigham concerning the
market conditions as they affect the sale
of potatoes This is reliable information
direct from the shipping points and
should be your guide in the sale of your
potato crop.
This week will be taken up with the
of the corn tests Notices of
the meetings will appear under the local
items in the paper.

cident, rode to Williamstown after the

to higher court on exceptions.

.Most Perfect Ode.n

One hundred years ago appeared what
Byron called "the most perfect ode in
the language" "The Burial of Sir John
Moore" 1t was the Newry Telegraph
which gave to the world this anony-
nous poem of Rev. Charles Wolfe,
which won for its author but postum
nous fame. for not until his death In
1923 was its real authorship made
known, though various had been the
guesses as to the writer. That obscure
curate OF Ballyc!og must have felt
proud indeed to find among its putative
authors such poets as Campbell and
Byron.-London Chronicle.

AMUSEMENT NOTES
Nothing But the Truth" Based on Wag
er of $4,000.

Which comes to opera house next Tues
day, Sept Is, is heralded as a screaming
farce based upon wager of $4,000,
that human being can tell nothing but
the truth for certain stated period.
This is the theme of the farce, and it
has been worked out with the most lu-
dicrous situations and screamingly funny
complications growing out Of the wager
named that there is not a moment from
rise to fall of curtain, when laughter
fails the rapid fire unfolding of the plot.
The several characters of the mirthful
stage concert are in the hands of the
most capable farceurs, each one imbued
with the idea of extracting all the dor
mant fun of James Montgomery's clever
~ constructed scenes and situations In
word, North But the Truth" was
written in the interests of laughter and
is played for an audience just for the
fun of it. To put it tritely- the laugh
is not on the play, but countless laughs
are in it,-ady.

SLIPS OF THE PEN.
Even the Best Of Writers at Times
Nod While They Work.

Nod Willis They Work.
Many If not most writers have had to
bewail the occasional freakishness OF
the pen In putting down on paper some.
thing very different from that intended
by its author.
Readers OF Sir George Trevelyan's
life OF Macaulay" viii recall the his
torian's horror when too late he dis
covered that he had written In the
Edinburgh Review that lit would be
unjust to estimate Goldsmith by The
Vicar of Wakefield or Scott by The
Life OF Napoleon when he really in
tended to say that It would be unjust
to estimate Goldsmith by his History
OF Greece" There was, too, an anus
ing slip OF the pen perpetrated by the
grave Sir Archibald Alison In includ-
ing Sir Peregrine Pickle instead of Sir
bearers at the Duke of Wellington's
funeral
Another striking instance Of the pen
mechanically writing something not in
tended came under notice the other day
on the title page of reprint Of once
famous book, Jane Porter's Scottish
Chiefs" This edition, published some
years ago by well known London
house, describes Miss Porter as "au-
thor Of Pride and Prejudice Sense
and Sensibility,'" etc. Doubtless the
Christian name OF Jane" induced the
slip. All remember and nearly all
Charlotte Bronte was one notable ex-
ception--love Jane Austen; not so many
remember Jane Porter Westminster

Sodasi

Give Up Your Candies and Ice Cream
Sodasi
There is an article about the part chill
dren will play in the war in the October
Woman's Home Companion. 1t was writ
ten by Agnes Repplier and she says:
sMore sober, less inspiring, but every
whit as educational is the program OF
thrift and service to which the Minute
Girls-who may be best described as
Campfire girls at home and at school
have pledged their support. These chi.
dren are taught-what they are quite old
enough to understand-that times Of war
call for sterner qualities than times OF
peace and plenty, and that they must be
prepared 10 meet new conditions with
new courage and new efforts. They are
not. for example, to dawdle over break
fast, and then hop on trolley car to
get to school, They are to start earlier,
and walk. They are not to spend Satur-
day afternoons at matinees and moving
picture shows. They are to tramp or
bike if the weather be good, and to
learn economic cooking or elementary
nursing if the weather be stormy. They
are not to waste anything that can be
turned to account. They are
rigidly to curtail the money spent on
candy and ice cream sodas-which is
wise reform. The increased consumption
of candy in the past few years has been
regrettable from every point of view.
There is feverish cutlery from trades
men whenever any economy is projected,
a feverish protest against the cramping
of industrial conditions; but no one can
deny that too much candy is eaten in
the United States"

BURSTS WITH THE HEAT.
Sad Fate Of the Terrashot When II
Enters Death Valley.

That most frlghtful OF deserts. Death
valley. In California. lies between two
lofty ranges, one OF which is called the
Funeral mountains.
The higher levels OF these mountains
are rather densely forested, with here
and there little meadows and parks
natural elearlngsl. In which dwells a
strange animal known as the terrashot
So inaccessible are these inhospitable
heights. however that the creature,
rarely seen has remained almost UNI
known.
Respecting its habits little can be
said There Is no reason for supposing
that IL Is dangerous 10 man. Nobody
knows even whether 1t Is carnivorous
or plant feeder. II has coffin shap-
ed body, six or seven feet long. with a
sort OF shell running the whole length
OF its back.
Having, II is presumed, few natural
enemies. the terrashot increases In
numbers until II is seized with an Inn
pulse TO migrate, possibly because its
food supply no longer sufiiees. The
animals then form long professions,
marching down into the desert in sin
gle file, with the evident intention OF
crossing the valley to the mountains on
the other side.
But none OF them ever gets across.
As they encounter the hot sands they
rapidly dlstend with the heat and one
after another they blow up with loud
reports, the places where this happens
being marked by deep, grave shaped
holes.-Philadelp Record
