The Patch Home Has Narrow Escape


Last Saturday the fine residence
Belonging to Lieut.. Col. Patch on Pay
cite height took fire in the roof near
The chimney, either from defective
chimney or from a spark, but was
noticed by Mrs. Patch before it had
gotten under headway, who turned in
the alarm, which quickly brought the
lire company and others in autos and
the flames were extinguished before
much damage was done, just a small
space in the roof around the chimney
and little damage to the plaster from
water, however the city water was
not turned on, just the use of buckets
and private water system.

MILITARY TRAINING
At MOSCOW

Quite number of the Payette coun-
ty boys have gone to take advantage
of the students military training at
Moscow, which we believe to be a
very wise thing for these young men
to do, although some of them hesitated
for fear it would lengthen the time
that they might enter for actual SER
vice. Below is a list of those that
have gone as near as we can learn:
Marvin Albert
Gard Wood
Ashley Bivens
Edward Turner
Waymon Williams
Dewey Patton
Charley Davis
James Attebery
Tom Eldrfdge
Ralph Mitchell
Boyd Swanson
Clyde Shanks
Carroll Shanks
Hugh Shamberger

Martin Hanigan
Bayard Lattig
Renne Berry
Sydna Robertson
Robert Harris
Lewis Russell
Roy Muhan
George Mason
Paul Hinchcleft
John Hanigan
Lawrence Gilkerson
Joe Sheldon.
Victor johnson will go as soon as
he can be relieved from the express
office. We understand that some OF
these young men have not gone to
Moscow but to other schools where
they will take the same training.

got some nice blackberries. They
grow everywhere here especially In
tho openings where the trees have
been cut down and they have conf
menced to clear the land for crops |
The ground seems to be full of roots
as l noticed them coming up in the |
gardens as the weeds do there. They
grow so high in some places that
they pick them ON LADDERS and they
are so thick you can't begin to get
them all from the ground and they
say they keep on bearing until Nov
ember The women earn. from SO to

have taken some delightful trips

are out from Tokeland ON boggy land

WATER NECESSARY TO LIFE
All Vitality Has Been Well Called an
Aquatic Phenomenon" as French
Student Expressed 1t.

All life is lived In water. Where no
water is, no life can be. The necessary
machinery may have been already
made, as in completely dried seed,
but that seed cannot actually live I'M
til water reaches it again. To live Is
to be wet; or, in the phrase of a
French student, Life is an aquatic
phenomenon"
When the supply of water is with
held from living things. they may sur.
vive, but their life is slowed down,
as it were. In the completely dried
seed, life is arrested altogether, yet the
creature is not dead. The French call
that case of vie suspendue-Or, in
our language, suspended animation.
After astonishingly long periods, such
seeds will terminate if they are wa
tered.
The astronomer tells us that our
planet is only one of many belonging
to innumerable suns. and he wonders
whether this little ''lukewarm bullet
of ours is really unique in bearing a
burden of life. There is one path that
leads to the answer of his query. 1t
he finds 10 evidence of water on
other worlds, he cannot expect to tinu
life there.

ADDS TO HARDNESS OF BRICK
Scientist Explains Why Straw is 4
Necessary Ingredient in the
Process of Manufacture.

Everyone is familiar with the story
of how Pharaoh commanded his task
makers to increase the burdens laid
Oh the IsraeliteS by withholding from
them the straw wherewith to make
bricks, says the Popular Science
Monthly, and doubtless many have
wondered wherein the hardship lay.
BY most people, probably, the view has
been held that the straw was added as
a binding material, much as hair Is
used in the mortar; but such an ex-
PLANTATION is scarcely satisfying when
it is remembered that the straw fiber
is a very weak one. Alexander Find
lay says in his Chemistry in the Serv-
ice of Man.:
about fourteen years ago it was
found by DR.. e. G. Acheson, to whom
we owe the discovery of carborunAm
and the process of making artificial
graphite, that when clay is mixed with
q dilute solution of tannin 1t becomes
much more plastic, and the strength
of the dried brick is, moreover, great
ly increased. Although straw does
not contain tannin it was found that
when straw is treated with water, the
extract obtained has the same action
on clay as tannin has, the Elasticity of
the clay and the hardness of the brick

ASSERTS MUSIC MAY BE SEEN
English Violinist Declares Winsoms
Notes Can Be Displayed to Eye
as Well as to Ear.

That music may be translated into
color and displayed to the eye as we'll
as to the ear is the new and highly
interesting theory developed by 1sa'
dore Berger, the English vfOlinist, &C
cording to the Pittsburgh Gazette
Music and color, he declares, express
exactly the same emotions and feel
ings, and therefore an opera or q
symphony may actually be turned into
color and seen. By understanding the
interrelation of color and sound even
the deaf can learn to enjoy music
when expressed in color. Mr.. Berger
says:
"Color is not to be an accompani-
ment nor a mere light effect, but "a
clear, logical expression of music. The
synchronfsm must be perceived emo.
tionally rather than scientifically. For
instance, red always expresses passion
anger, temper or any intense feeling
Yellow, the color of light, means love
and happiness. Blue is the mystic
color. Modify the yellow of love with
the mystic blue and you have violet
a pensive, sad emotion. All the other
grades of emotion are the result OF
the blending of passion, mystery and
love, or red, blue and yellow. They
are three primary colors and the three
primary emotions"

Saws for Cutting Metal.

Not so very long ago the discovery
was made in Germany that metals
could be sawed easier and quicker
with rapidly revolving smooth disks
of steel, than with toothed circular
saws. 1t was found that the cutting
was done by the heat generated by
the friction Of the edge of the disk
ag'Gnst the metal. The metal is melt
ed at the point of contact. while the
steel of the disk, being cooled by the
air, does not reach the melting point.
The disks need no sharpening and do
not wear out SO quickly as the toothed
saws heretofore used for cutting met
al. The faster the disk revOlyes, the
greater the amount of heat generated,
and the quicker the job.-Popular Sci.

New Uses of Cotton.

The people as yet little understand
the wonderful variety of uses to which
cotton is now put. One, industry has
established at Columbus. Ca, at cost
of 100000 a mill whose machinery
is capable of producing So different
kinds of cotton weave, says q CORE
spondent. The government has re?
Gently placed orders for many million
yards, it having been found possible
to substitute cotton for linen in the
manufacture of wings for aircraft, and
also to substitute a cotton weave for
the rubber gas masks and rubber coats
which airmen wear. Secretary Dan
iels has ordered the purchase of no..
100000 pounds of cotton for navy
uses and 20O,OO0,OOO yards of cotton
gauze for surgical purposes. Chemists
making researches believe that within
short time additional uses of cotton
will be found; and yet only a few
years ago about the only use of Amer
lean cotton was in the manufacture of
cloth.
