Borino Pole Holes.

The tiresome and time consuming
work Of digging holes for telegraph
and electric service poles is now ut an
end, says Scientific American. At least,
there has been evolved gasoline
driven earth-boring machine which
makes an average boring time per hole
Of one and one-half to two minutes,
The equipment Is mounted on horse
drawn truck and is operated by two
men. In ordinary soil It maintains an
average Of 100 holes per day, each
measuring five feet deep by "a inches
In diameter. The equipment consists
of truck, which carries gasoline en-
'gine, driving mechanism and q huge
auger which is slowly rotated and fed
downward. The augers are furnished
In sizes from 2 to "a inches.

If WE ONLY UNDERSTOOD

Rudyard Kipling
If we knew the cares and trials,
Knew the efforts all in vain,
And the bitter disappointment.
Understood the loss and gain,
Would the grim eternal roughness
Seem, wonder, just the same,
Should we help where now we hinder
Should we pity where we blame?
All! we Judge each other harshly,
knowing not life's hidden force
knowing not the font of action
Is less turbid at its source;
Seeing not amid the evil
All the golden grain of good,
And we'd love each other better
II we only understood.
Could we judge all deeds by motives
That surround each others lives,
See the naked heart and spirit,
Know what spur the action gives,
Often we would find it better
Just to Judge all actions good!
We should love each other better
II we only understood.

TWO DRAFT CALLS CANCELLED

The two draft calls to leave Wahpe-
ton during the period between Octo.
ber 9TH and 11th have been cancelled.
One of these was a call for 30 men
to go to Camp Grant in Illinois, and
the other was call for men to go to
Camp Lewis in the state of Washing
ton.
There was no reason stated for the
cancellation of these calls, but it is
perhaps on account of the Spanish in
fuenza that has invaded the training
camps. Every effort is being put
forth to stop the spread and ravages
OF tbs disease. A new serum cure and

Dlsdain Western F,nerv.

In reply to an inquiry from an
American firm as to the demand here
for lace goods and embroideries, it
can be stated. reports the American
consul at Yokohama, that as the Japa-
nese women cling very tenaciously to
their style Of dress and as no use is
made Of lace or embroideries either in
their dress or home furnishings, it is
improbable that any considerable mar
ket can be developed in Japan for
American-made lace goods or embroid-
cries. The demand would be limited
to the foreign residents here, who now
number about 5000, exclusive of Chi.
nese, and to such goods as are not be-
ing manufactured In Japan.

STATE SCIENCE SCHOOL NOTES

The second week of school found
all departments of the school in full
operation with an air and vim that
would more closely resemble a period
IN the mfd-year than the very begin
ming of the fall term. The enroll
ment is thirty per cent above that of
last year at this time, and the per.
sonel of the student body is higher
In scholarship than the average fall
term enrolment. The stress of the
times is reflected in the unusual call
for the trade and commercial courses.
The following changes are noted
in the personel of the faculty:
Miss Ripple succeeds Miss Miles as
modern language Instructor: Prot.
W. E. Halsey succeeds Mr.. Jones as
head of the department Of Biology;
Miss Alice Walton succeeds Miss
Mabel Jameson as assistant in the
commercial department.
Mr.. Ray skilitski of Spencer, Iowa,
drove to Wahpeton last week to take
leave of the school and friends before
entering the army for service. Mr..
Skilitski graduated from Science in
1917 from the engineering school and
has been farming in Iowa since. He
is in the next call and expects to be
in France before Christmas. He
made the trip from Spencer in Ford,
time required one day.
