Volcano Hottest on Surface.

1t appears that volcano Is hottest
on its surface. This is the conclusion
drawn by scientist who has made In
vestigations In Hawaii and has OBJ
tanned samples OF gases and lava be
fore they reached the air. Laboratory
studies Of these samples make 1t ap-
pear that much of the heat required
to keep an open lava basin In fluid con

CAN FOOD AND PRESERVE TIE NATION
BRINE THE SURPLUS PRODUCTS:
EASIEST WAY TO SAVE PERISHABLES

The rush of summer work brings
the housewife many days when. can
and dry as she may. she cannot han
die all the products that come piling
in. A bucket of brine will save the
extra and keep it for a less busy sea-
son when more time is available to
prepare it for use
Brining is one of the oldest and cas-
lest methods OF saving garden pro-
ducts, but since the development of
improved canning methods very little
use has been made of this means of
preservation. This summer every
housewife should know the possible
ties of brining, for delayed deliveries
on jars or bad weather for drying may
otherwise mean the loss of many
pounds of perishable products.

pounds of salt to 1 gallon of water, a

FIGHTING FOR MONEY.

The German press still insists that
we went to war for financial reasons,
and are lighting for money" It's a
waste of time to argue with the Ger
man press, but the charge is so curl
Gus that an American cannot help no
ticing it. The German argument is
that we were afraid of losing the big
sums the Allies owed us for war ma
terials, and so we jumped in to save
them and get our money back
The Allies may have owed us. al
together. in various ways. several bill
lions of dollars. For most of it we
had good security. Now here we are,
having spent already several times
as much as those debts amounted to,
planning the further expenditure Of
enough money to buy the German EN-
pire outright-with the specific under
standing that we make no claim to
territory, war indemnity or special
trade rights.
We need not blame the Germans,
however, for misrepresenting us. Such
unselfish idealism is incomprehensible
beyond the Rhine.

Jim CROW LAWS
DECLARED INVALID
Public Service Commission Counsel
Says Races Cannot Be Sepa-
rated On Cars

Notwithstanding the fact that it has
been the practice to segregate the
races on the W., B. & A Electric cars
between this city, and Washington,
under the Jim Crow law, that law
has been declared invalid
General Counsel William Cabell
Bruce, of the Public Service Commits
sion, Thursday gave an opinion that
the commission has no authority as to
the segregation of white and colored
people on interstate railroads. The
matter was brought before the COM
mission in complaint by DR.. William
H. Wright, who said that the Washing
ton, Baltimore and Annapolis Railway
is segregating the two races on its
cars running between Baltimore and
Washington.
Mr.. Bruce stated that the courts
have held that the Maryland Legisla-
ture cannot put into effect segregation
regulations affecting interstate trans
portation agencies, and that if the
Legislature cannot do that, it follows
that the creature of the Legislature,
the Service Commission, cannot. The
question is one for the national au-
thorities. Jim Crow laws passed some
years ago are in effect on transporta-
ton agencies operating entirely with
in the State.

POTASH AND CROPS.

We learn from German authorities
that the United States is suffering
grievously for lack of German potash.
Germany. as everybody knows. has the
largest known deposit of this mineral
fertilizer.
Before the war the rest of the world
depended on it to a great extent Now,
deprived of potash, so the German
professors assure the German people,
our agriculture is languishing, our
fields are barren and starvation for
the Allies is certain. Germany's
potash monopoly cripples us more eff
fectually than our blockade cripplies

In MEMORIAM


WEEMS-In sad, but loving remembrance
of our dear mother, GEORGIANNA
WEEMS. who departed this life six
years ago, July p, 1913.
God called her home, it was his win
But in our hearts we love her still.
Her memory is as dear today
As in the hour she passed away.
A precious one from us has gone,
a voice we loved is stilled,
\ place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filed.
We cannot forget you dear Mother.
We must go through life without you,
And often in the lonely hours
We wipe away our tears
Dear is the grave where she is laid
Sweet is the memory which never shah
fade.
Roses may wither. and leaves may die.
Gone. but not forgotten.
The peace of God, which passeth all un-
Outstanding, keep your hearts and minds
In the knowledge and love of God and
Of his Son, Jesus Christ Our Lord, and
the blessings of God Almighty. the
Father, the Son and The Holy Ghost, be
with you always. Amen.
BY HER HUSBAND AND CHILDREN.
