Mathematics a Powerful
Factor in Our Material
and Economic Progress

Whatever may be said Of mathe-
matics as "whetstone of the Wits or
as q mental discipline, the fact remains
that the chief vitalizing factor of the
subject is found in its practical uses.
Historically speaking, observes 5. Il.
Macdonald of the Colorado Agricul-
tural college, much Of our advanced
mathematics, as well as most Of our
elementary mathematics, sprang as
necessity out of very practical cond1-
tions.
It has been remarked that "man
measures and conquers," and indus
trially speaking we may safely affirm
that mans conquest depends very
largely upon his ability to measure
accurately. This task Of measurement
may be a problem in arithmetic, as the
measurement of an excavation In
terms of cubic yards or human hands
or horse power or money, or the
measurement may involve a more ad-
vanced knowledge, as the measure
ment Of the length Of an ellipt1cal
curve, or of cable swinging freely
between two supports, Brooklyn bridge
for example. And let it be emphasized
that this measurement is not complete
until it is expressed in terms of known
units that would be useful In a build
er's bid or contract
So mathematics, more than we real
ize, is a powerful factor In our ma
terial and economic progress.

RED CROSS CARE
OF SOLDIERS

While Uncle Sans soldiers have
been travelling to camps and canton
ments all over the country, the Red
Cross has been busy proving that the
boys in khaki never lack friends no
matter where they 60.
More than thousand chapters have
organized "refreshment units" which
make a business of serving light re-
freshments-coffee, sandwiches, and
the nke-at the railroad stations in
their home towns when the troop
trains 60 through.
Many chapters also stamp and mail
letters and post cards for the soldiers,
and send off their kilograms.
In a town Of less than $4,000 people
in Iowa, the Red Cross chapter served
light refreshments to over $500 men
in about two weeks times. Twenty
four hundred homemade cookies and
ten bushels Of apples were donated for
use in single day.
When the selective draft men left
the town every man took pound box
Of candy, made by someone Of his
neighbors, with him. For another de-
tachment, the Red Cross loaded the
cook car with enough sweet corn, ap-
pies and tomatoes for two meals for
the whole trainful Of soldiers.
During one full day of "a hours (for
the chapters are ready night and day.
the Red Cross canteen workers served
homemade apple pie to LAP men, and
every man got quarter Of pie!

UNEARTHLY WAS THIS MUSIC
German Publication Reprimanded by
Press Agent for Mistranslation
of Adjective "Heavenly."

The censorship of foreign language
publications by the post office depart
ment won't be at all offensive to one
of the musical comedies which re-
Gently opened in New York. And If
the censorship can extend to the
point Of gathering altogether a certain
German periodical, then the press
agent will be even stronger for the
government.
His animosity dates back to the
hand-painted account of the opening
of his play, which he wrote and sent
out some twelve hours before the cur
tain was raised on the premiere. How
ever, his description Of the charms Of
the chorus, the plot, the scenery and
the personnel of the audience didn't
suffer on account of anything like that.
On the question of the beauty of the
music he was especially grandiloquent,
and when he called up the German edi-
torial offices the next morning he felt
that his grievance was just. But there
they told him he had used a part of
his own copy, without changing a
single word, merely translating it into
German.
"Oh, you did !" raved the young press
agent, and his voice instinctively told
that he was tearing his hair. 81 wrote
that the music was heavenly-and your
blamed translation made 1t say that
the music was unearthly!

Fresh Fruits Beneficial
and Aid in Making Other
Foods Far More Efficient

In the campaign for food conserve,
ton, the government advocates the
consumption Of perishable products,
and the use Of larger amounts Of fresh
fruits. The old expression "An apple
a day will keep the doctor away" might
well become the slogan Of a greater
number of people than ever before,
writes a state agriculturist.
The general healthfulness Of such
fruits is well known but they have not
been used as widely in the past as they
should. Their beneficial properties
stimulate the appetite and aid diges-
ton and while possessing only small
nutritive value are necessary part
of every diet. Too many people are
prone to consider fruits as luxuries
rather than necessities. Growing chill
dren often crave fruits Of different
kinds, and no doubt would be benefited
by more of them, but their parents,
feeling that they are luxuries, fail to
provide them.
Many fresh fruits such as apples,
oranges and grapes, may be obtained
at reasonable prices, and there is lit
tie doubt but that larger amounts OF
such fruits and smaller amounts Of
some other foods as meats and pas
tries, would benefit a great number Of
people.
In addition to their other good quail
tiles, fresh fruits are said to ''make
other foods more efficient" something
that Is worth while considering.

Human Development.

Human development Is a matter Of
growth. 1t comes from within out.
There's no pleasure in being shown
your weakness unless you mean to
profit by their exposure. You can't
show the weak spots to everybody,
notes a writer. Small people get an
gered at the suggestion that they
might not be up to all they should be.
So you might as well let them nurse
their self-opinion and get busy on
yourself. You will work, and dig, and
polish, and often will not be able to
see any progress made. That's dis
couraging, but you mustn't stop. You
must just renew your efforts at work
ing, digging and polishing. If you are
willing to pay the price you can rise
to almost any height. And the best of
1t Is you know how you have risen
and the very process has made you
more than a master for anything that
may turn up.

Never Committed to Paper.

: Great care Is taken in guarding
diplomatic secret. No government Sc
cret when first born is ever committed
to paper, except on the rare occasions,
says London Tit-Bits, when minutes OF
a cabinet meeting are taken and for
warded to the king. Once our war cab
met has decided upon an important
piece of foreign policy with neutral
country it has to be transmitted to our
representative abroad, and for the first
time the secret is put in writing In the
form Of unintelligible cipher, the key
to which is already in the hands of our
ambassador. The men who draw up
these intricate cipher codes are reli-
able officials employed by the govern
ment, and they often obtain from $500
to f7O0 for a single code.

CHAPTER X.
korak,s Nendeance.

Meriem looked straight into the keen
gray eyes. She must have found there
an unquestionable assurance of the
honorableness of their owner, for she
permitted him to lay his palm upon
her forehead and feel her pulse. Ap-
parently she had no fever.
"How long have you been an ape?"
asked the man.
''Since / was a little girl, many,
many years ago, and Korak came and
took me from my father, who was
beating me. Since then L have lived
In the trees with Korak and A'ht."

When One Goal Is Reached
Begin Plans for Another

The attainment Of success should al
ways be in the future. If you succeed
today, tomorrow you should succeed
again. If you have reached a goal for
which you have struggled for many
years, writes Bernarr Macfadden, In
Physical Culture, you can enjoy your
victory to the full, but life will become
dull, monotonous and fruitless unless
you set another goal, begin another
chase. For the eternal reward comes
only with life Of continuous achieve.
ment.
1t matters not what you accom-
plished last year, the year before, or
many years before. It is what you are
doing now, today, that is Of real i'm
portance. If the time comes when you
are fully satisfied, when the goal you
have reached completely fulfills every
longing within your soul. then life viii
no longer be Of interest. It viii be
time to die.

defective mentality. Could he have
known that years had elapsed since
she had used it until she was taken
by the Swedes, he would not have
wondered that she had half forgot
ten it.
There was yet another reason why
the language of the sheik had thus
readily eluded her, but of that reason
she herself could not have guessed the
truth any better than could the man.
He tried to persuade her to return
with him to his village" as he called
it, or s"douar'' in Arabic, but she was
insistent upon searching Immediately
for Korak. AS last resort he deter
mined to take her with him by force
rather than sacrifice her life to the in
sane hallucination which haunted her
But, being q wise man, he determined
to humor her first and then attempt to
lead her as he would have her go.
So when they took up their march
it was in the direction of the south,
though his own ranch lay almost due
east.
By degrees he turned the direction
of their way more and more eastward,
and greatly was he pleased to note
that the girl failed to discover that
any change was being made.
Little by little she became more
trusting. At first she had had but her
intuition to guide her belief that this
big Tarmangani meant her no harm,
but as the days passed and she saw
that his kindness and consideration
never faltered she came to compare
him with her Korak and to be very
fond of him, but never did her loyalty
to her ape man flag.
On the fifth day they came suddenly
upon a great plain, and from the edge
of the forest the girl saw in the dis
tance fenced fields and many build
ings. At the sight she drew back in
astonishment.
"Where are we2' she asked, point
ing.
1--WE could not find KOrak," replied
the man, land as our way led near my

and rest with my wife until my men
can find your ape or he finds you. 1t

safer with US and you will be happier"
Meriem laughed. '"The jungle" she
said. 'is my father and my mother. l

should rather die than leave it forever.
But your douar is close beside the
Jungle. You have been good to me. ]

for awhile to wait the coming Of iay

Good" said the man, and he led
the way down toward the fowef-cov-
cred bungalow behind which lay the

The Union Jack.

The Union Jack is combination OF
the separate national flags Of the three
Kingdoms of Great Britain and Ire
land, or at least Of what have been
accounted such. The red cross on
white field was, before the beginnings
of heraldry, the distinguishing flag OF
England, and the white satire on
blue field (the st. Andrews cross)
similarly the flag Of Scotland. The
first union flag, introduced in 1916,
three years after the union of England
and Scotland, blended the two national
hags by placing the cross of st. George
over the satire of st. Andrew, retain
ting the blue field of the latter, and CIV
ing the former narrow white bor-
der or "fimbriation" to represent Its
white or silver field, and avoid the
heraldic solecisms of color on color.
At the union of 1907 the use of the
arst union flag was confirmed.

Municipal Forests Being
Established In Maryland

In Maryland municipal forests are
being established with professional aid
from the state. In other eastern states,
towns and cities are acquiring small
municipal forests to serve for water
shed protection or for recreation. The
times seems fast approaching, notes a
writer, when cities and counties as
we'll as states and the federal govern
ment will very generally establish pub
lie forests for the growing of timber
and for providing employment and uti'
lizing land unfit for agriculture.
Forestry involves so long time In
maturing the crop that, while reason
ably profitable, private funds or ind1-
viduals are not often attracted. For
estry seems destined to remain largely
a governmental institution, although
under special conditions and in certain
sections of the country private funds
are being proftably employed In grow
ing timber.

The lady in the picture has on one
Of those coats Cor is it a dressO which
leaves us in doubt as to its identity.
"Will you remove your coat?" might
bring the answer: 81 cannot, this Is
also my dress,," without surprising
anyone The coat-dress proved con-
venience to the tourist who wished to
travel light, especially when designed
to allow an extra undergarment upon
need of warmth, and a coat-dress like
that pictured Is a thing of beauty and
distinction.
If you are looking for garment
versatile enough to play this double
role, be assured you will not find any
thing handsomer than the model shown
here. 1t is of plain, smooth-faced
cloth, and will appeal to good taste if
we imagine it in gray or tan, or in
darker colors. 1t is lifted into the
ranks of the exceptional by its decora-
ton. This is a bordered scroll in
which cable cord, covered with cloth
like that in the dress, is used instead
of braid. The large covered cord,
wound with a small silk cord in a
darker shade of its own color. The
coat Is simple in design with straight,

full shirt, joined to semiftting,
roomy bodice, having plain coat
sleeves and long, square cape at the
back. This, with the turnover collar,
the cuffs and belt give additional OPP
portunity to feature the novel decora'
ton. The large scroll pattern, appear
ing on the skirt is repeated in smaller
motifs on the belt, across the cape and
collar and on the cuffs.
Unexpected details in the costume
appear in the slit pockets in each side
of the skirt and in the small scarf
made to match the coat. This scarf
idea has been developed by costumers
in several clever ways, sometimes at
tached to the coat and sometimes not.
The turban worn with this very inter-
esting garment is evidently part OF
the outfit, for it depends upon a COW
cred cord to furnish its decoration, but
goes further and adds an odd new
pompon which looks much like a
chrysanthemum made of ostrich fiues.
Nothing illustrates better the "diffi-
cult simplicity" which Is demanded of
designers Of the dress Of today, than
this smart cOat-dress.

my wife will look after you and care
for you until we can find korak or
KOrak finds us. If he could fnd you
here, he can find you at my village.
Is it not SOP"
Meriem thought that 1t was so, but
she did not like the idea of not start
ing Immediately back to meet korak.
On the other hand, the man had no
intention of permitting this poor, in
sane child to wander further amid the
dangers of the jungle. Whence she
had come or what she had undergone
he could not guess, but that her Korak
and their life among the apes was but
a figment of a disordered mind he
could not doubt.
He knew the jungle well, and he
knew that men had lived alone and
naked among the savage beasts for
years, but a frail and slender girl !
No, it was not possible.
Together they went outside. NAL
bihn,s boys were striking camp in
preparation for hasty departure. The
strangers blacks were cOnversing with
them. Malbihn stood at distance,
angry and glowering.
The stranger approached one of his
own men.
Find out where they got this girl"
he commanded.
The negro thus addressed questioned
one of Malbihn's followers. Presently
he returned to his master.
'They bought her from old Kovu-
doo," he said. "That is all that this
fellow will tell me. He pretends that
he knows nothing more, and think
that he does not. These two white
men were very bad men. They did
many things that their boys knew not
the meanings of. 1t would be well,
Bwana, to kill the other"
81 wish that might, but new law
is come into this part Of the jungle.
1t is not as it was In the old day, Mu-
viri," replied the master.
The stranger remained until Malbihn
and his safari had disappeared into
the jungle toward the north. Meriem,
trustful now, stood at his side, Geeka
clutched in one slim, brown hand.
They talked together, the man Won
dering at the faltering Arabic of the
girl, but attributing it finally to her
