Left h~andsdne.s.

From the Scientific American.
Al least one human being In SO 10
left handed. This is the minimum esti-
mate: Some authorities a four In
so. w. Franklin Jones declares that
= per cent of the race are born left
handed. but about lhree-fOurths OF these
are converted by training into more OF
less imperfect right handlers. On the
other hand, about ] per cent OF the race.
though born right handed. il trained
to use the left hand because OF acct
dents to the right.
Miss l. G.. Smith. from statistics OF
more than 1000 school children, found
that az per cent OF the girls and 5k
per cent Of the boys were left handed.
Among the blind. feeble minded and de-
linauent the percentage Of left handed
ness is considerably higher. This doubt.
less explains the fact that left handed
ness itself has come TO be looked upon
popularity as a defect, Notwithstanding
the number Of left handed persons who
have attained the highest distinction in
all lines Of achievement.
A congental left handler can easily
acquire enough skill with his right hand
to prevent him from being seriously
handicapped by the fact that the world
has adopted a right handed mode Of do
ing most of its tasks. that many tools
and implements are designed for right
handed people. that custom requires
! him to shake hands with his right
hand. that servants bring food to his
left side $ that he may help himself
with his right hand, etc.
In other words. "a moderate degree of
ambfdexterity is an advantage and al.
most a necessity to III naturally sin

TO convert Il born left handler into a
perfect right handler is not only an i'm

SCARCITY OF TEACHERS
BECOMES MOST SERIOUS

Chicago. (l3y mail)-Faced by pros
poets of an increasing demand for and
diminishing supply Of school teachers
for 1888, the employment service VI
the federal department Of labor is
sending to every state superintendent
OF education in the country a question
nalre seeking accurate Information al
70 the number OF teachers available
for next year and possible sources OF
supply FOR vacancies.
The Chicago branch Of the service
has let 1t be known that the greatest
difficulty thus far has been in obtain
ing Instructors for high schools. the
greater part Of whose teaching forces
have hitherto been composed of young
men. Numbers OF these Instructors
or have enlisted. The many special
services which the. government has
beeT- organizing have also draWn heav-
lily on this class Of teachers and on
senior college students from among
whom are usually recruited tho annual
additions TO the school stats.
Educational authorities have viewed

started organized efforts to fill the
gaps In their ranks and have empha-

c. G. Bradford OF Denver, president of
the National Education Association.
has addressed al appeal to the teachers
OF the country, in which she said, in
part:
The school teachers of the United
States are hereby called to the colors
of he American REPUBLIC. The schools
are the laboratory of good citizenship
The children are little citizens and
must be guided in such present expert
ences as will make certain their future
dedication to The welfare If the Re
public. The junior membership OF the
Red Cross. through the school auxili-
airy, offers an indispensable medium
through which the patriotic activities
OF the children can make themselves
felt. Beginning with Lincoln's birth
day and lasting until Washington's
birthday a nation wide effort is to be
made in behalf OF increasing the Junior
membership.
THE National Education association
offers every teacher in the land the higl.
privilege OF participation in this great
campaign. The school organization Of
each state needs your help in this

GOVERNORS JULY
FOURTH PROCLAMATION

Gov. r. L. Williams has ISSUED
the following July Fourth procla-
nation:
A hundred and forty-two years
after the Declaration Of lndepend-
ence, our country is facing, with
other civilized nations, colossal
task, that of demonstrating that the
peoples of the earth, without de-
mands for conqutst. can resolve
themselves into a unified force and
pour out ungrudgingly the blood OF
rich and poor alike, from every
race, for one great ideal of right
and justice.
America is performing well its
part. Today her sons are standing
shoulder to shoulder on the battle
front of Europe with her allies. At
home, side by side, every patriotic
person is working to sustain them.
America is performing we'll its
part. Today her sons are stand
ing shoulder on the battle front of
Europe with her allies. At home,
side by side, every patriotic person
is working to sustain thin.
1t i stherefore peculiarly fitting
at this time that all should take
part in the Fourth of July observ-
ance of the anniversary of the
birth of our country. 1t will be an
occasion when the foreign born
will have special opportunity to
show their fealty to the country of
their adoption. and in which they
have elected to have their sons and
daughters livt.
This Fourth of July should not
be characterized by hilarity or of
waste. but by patriotic rejoicing in
which those of foreign birth should
delight to take part with our native
born citizens.
County, city. town and commun-
ity flags should be unfurled, the
flags of our allies being given place
OF honor beside our own.
The observance Of this day should
serve to cement closer the peoples
of this state and nation and to
make more firm our resolve to
seek peace only in victory.
r. L. WILLIAMS,
The governor of the state of Ok
lahoma.

First Baycret Charge.

London Answers: Its name come:
from that of Bayonne, little town
in the Basque country in France
but cheek and jowl with Spain,
down in the far corner OF the Bis
cay. There it was first manufac-
tured. The story of its invention
illustrates the old proverb about
the motherhood OF necessity. "A
Basque regiment, having run out OF
ammunition and wishing to sell their
lives dearly, took the suggestion OF
one of their number that they
should fix long belt knives to the
ends OF their muskets and charge
Herewith and try to break through
the ranks of their enemies This
they did-the first bayonet charge
in history-and their success in ex-
tricating themselves from a warm
corner showed the value OF the new
weapon, and led to its manufacture
and adoption by every country and
army in the world.

Rough On Cats.

That kansans are wasting tons OF
food by feeding 100000 worthless
cats is the opinion Of DR.. r. X. Ma
bours OF the Kansas Agricultural
College.
"Howling at night is one of the
less serious crimes of the cats.
says Doctor Nabours. They kill
thousands of birds every year, i'm
portant in holding insect pests in
check. Cats are proved dissent
nators OF diseases such as anthrax
and tuberculosis. The apparently
harmless tabby which the baby fon-
dies may be as dangerous to it as
rat.lesnake.
"All stray cats should be killed
This would be a blessing to the
community and to the cats as well.
If this is done in water, the skins
are of value, but a general clean
up is now in order before they get
in their destructive work on the
nests and fledgiings of birds.
Eats have been greatly overesti-
mated as rar and mouse catchers.
Careful observations have shown
their effects to be rather negligi-
bic. An example of this was shown
in New Orleans when a war was
made on the rats which we're dis
tribu;ing buboric plague. A cap
tain of ship was boastful of the
work of ca: lie had on board. The
cat was left in the cabin by mistake
when she ship was fumigated. Aft
er the fumigation the bodies of the
cat and twelve rats were found in
the cabin. Evediently the cats
work of eradication had not been
thorough"

NEXT TWO MONTHS
BE SERIOUS ONES
Lloyd George Expects Another Hun
Drive in West.

London, June 25.-Premier Lloyd
George announced late yesterday
that the next couple of months
would be serious ones. There might
be a great blow coming in the next
few hours, he said. and certainly in
the next few days, and on this blow
the issue OF the campaign might de-
pend.
The entente allies. he added, never
felt better prepared to meet it.
Austrians in Full Retreat.
Premier Lloyd George said the
Austro-llungarians were in full re-
treat. The question now was, he
added. whether they would be able
TO effect a retreat.
The premier, who made this an
nouncement in the house OF com
mons, referred to the amazing or
ganization which was bringing
American troops TO France.
Enough Americans" he added,
nave arrived to satisfy the allies
and TO disappoint and ultimately de-
feat our foes"
Mr.. Lloyd George emphasized the
difficulty and almost impossibility of
dealing with Russia, with her many
differing and changing governments.
He agreed. however. that it would
be to the interest OF the British peo-
pie. and also just and equitable, if
Russia wanted it, that Great Britain
stand by Russia.
1t was possible that within a short
time, the premier said, the allies
would be stronger than Germany.
The enemy, he declared, had no fur
ther reserves to call upon after an
other offensive except by a drastic
oombing out the essential indus
tries which, he said, already had
started.

CONTRABAND AMMUNITION

London, June 25.-The seizure of
10000 rounds of ammunition in the
Smithheld market in Dublin yeSter-
day is expected to have develop
mentS, according to the Dublin cor
respondent of the Daily Mail, who
says the seizure was an incident in
an attempt to smuggle arms and
ammunition into Ireland on large
scale.
The first discovery OF the affair
seems to have been made by the
police at Belfast, where a ship, the
name of which is not given, arrived
the latter part of last week bring
ing a miscellaneous cargo, among
which contraband was cleverly dis
tributed. The contraband goods
we're consigned to various parts OF
the country. An investigation is
proceeding to discover how much OF
it reached its destination.
1t is understood that in addition
to the seizure at Dublin 5000 car
tridges were found in Belfast, and
other parcels in Dungannon and
Portadown. The Dublin consign-
ment was hidden in sacks of oats.
The consignee is said to be a
brother of one of the interned Sim
Feiners.

ARE YOU AN AMERICAN?

The American people fought
their first battles for liberty and
the right of self government one
hundred and fortytwo years ago.
At that time and for many years
thereafter, their realization of their
national aspirations and of the goal
toward which they struggled on
ward and upward toward a light
which grew clearer as their eyes and
minds slowly opened to its signifi-
cance. Today. as a result OF their
struggles and their sacrifices, we
possess and enjoy our priceless
American institutions.
These institutions must be pre-
served. The structure so laborious-
ly reared in these one hundred and
forty-two years will be utterly de
stroyed if We do not spring to its
defense with every atom of our en-
ergy and determination. This is
not a situation which may be trif-
led with. or evaded, or put off. 1t
is one which must be met now-to-
day-no matter what sacrifices it
may entail, or what the cost may
be.
The immediate need is the invest
