He should remember that his ideal

and marched right out again.
The trouble with Russia is that 1t

amounting to $5O0.OOO,O0O.

school children of the United States to 'as real
and patriotic an effort as the building of ships or
the firing of cannon"

sincerely hope that you may be successful!

interest of teachers and children in the schools
of the United States in the cultivation OF home
gardens. Every boy and girl who really sees
what the home garden may mean will. am sure
enter into the purpose with high spirits, because
l am sure they would all like to feel that they are
in fact fighting in France by joining the home

dertaken to send meat and flour and wheat and
other foods for the support of the soldiers who
are doing the fighting, for the men and women
who are making the munitions and for the boys
and girls of Western Europe, and that we must
also feed ourselves while we are carrying on this
war The movement to establish gardens,
therefore, and to have the children work in them

SEEMS GOOD BUSINESS IDEA
Proposed Commercial Register for HoI.
land Has Powerful Support In
Industrial Circles.

A law to establish commercial reg
lister in Holland has been introduced in
the states general, according to dis
patch from P. L. Edwards, CONNER
cial attache of The Hague. 1t is re-
ported to have the support of men,
bers of the government, of high legal
critics and of important business in
terests generally. This Is said to be
the elimination of a movement started
20 years ago for the passage of such q
law.
One of the most important features
Of the proposed law is that 1t forbids
the use of precisely the same name
by more than one concern within
given districts, 1t also provides that
in each given district there shall be
maintained a public register in which
would be given the name, age and
domicile of each member of firm, as
well as the extent to which each one
might be held legally liable for its
obligations. 1t also would make illegal
the use Of a deceptive title, including
such words, for instance, as "brOth-
ers," land company" or "and sons"
where the owner is only one person.
From the proposed commercial reg
lister a stranger would be able to as
certain the name and residence of
holders Of not fully paid up shares,
and the full particulars as to the ma
tionality, residence, etc., Of managers,
directors and other officers of corpor-
atoms and associations. There would
also be particulars as to former bank
ruptcies Of persons or concerns In
question. The present law already pro-
vides for publication Of many Of these
details, but they are only to be found
In such scattered places that in prac-
tice they are not available to the gen.
eral public.

THROUGH WILDS OF AFRICA
Plenty Of Excitement in Motonar
Trip Recently Undertaken by
Lover of Adventure.

To travel $500 miles overland In q
motorcar through the wilds of South
Africa without a mishap is considered
q remarkable accomplishment, accord
Ing to a story in African Motor Of
johannesburg.
In this article r. Asher of Port Eliz-
abeth tells of successful trip. 1.-The
roads in this country are VIGOROUSLY
bad, which makes the feat performed
by the car the more striking" says Mr..
Asher.
The journey took him through Gra-
Jamestown, City of the Saints, Fort
Beaufort and through Bedford, a typi-
cal inland city, and many of the larger
settlements.
In spite of transforms and almost
impossible roads no difficulty was ex-
perienced throughout the whole trip
aside from tire trouble. Some portions
Of the journey were made at the rate
Of 81 miles per imperial gallon of
gasoline.
Parts of the journey through Mon
tagu pass and Kyshna hills had to be
negotiated in second speed. yet through
all Of this mountainous travel the re-
markable feature was the GOODNESS of
the motor. Mr.. Asher reported that
no water was put in the radiator from
Oudtshoorn to Port Elizabeth, which
are at opposite sides of this billy coun-
try.
Describing parts Of the trip and COM
menting upon the appalling road con-
ditlons In places, Mr.. Asher says that
after plugging and struggling through
almost impossible roads, river was
encountered which had to be forded.
1t was necessary to take the plunge
with the car into q swift torrent, so
deep that he could not open the car
door. The radiator was partly SUBJ
merged, but the car plowed through
successfully.

Wrist Score Pada

A convenient little score pad for the
golfer Is attached to a leather strap,
which may be fastened around the
wrist.
The score pad is worn, Of course, on
the left wrist and the golfer may 5ot
down memoranda of his score as easily
as social memos are scrawled on
starched cuffs-or used to be when
starched cuffs were In fashion.
The usefulness of the wrist has been
sadly neglected in other years, when
the bracelet and occasionally the fan
were the only things 1t was expected to
carry. Wrist watches and golf scores
now fall to its share as part Of the
burden of life's impediments, and very
efficiently it meets its new obligations.

GETS DROWNED BODIES
Always Worked at Night, Possessed

Where All Other Methods

made his living by recovering the
bodies of persons drowned in lakes and

reer recently by committing suicide
after he had shot and killed an ac-
Quaintance in quarrel over q woman.
Jeremy, who was seventy-two years
old and a resident of this place, died
without disclosing his uncanny method
Of bringing bodies to the surface.
One Of his notable feats took place
shortly before his death when he re-
covered the body of Miss Helen
Learned of st. Paul, who was drowned
In Lake Phelan several weeks previous
ly. The lake bed had been raked
scores of times and hope had been
abandoned when FISHERMAN John" as
Jeremy was known, announced that he
would find the body. Within a short
time he had succeeded and collected
500 for his work.
Liked Starlight for His Work.
Jeremy worked alone and always at
night. He liked a starry sky, but the
rays Of full moon seemed to hamper
rather than aid him. Some persons
who for years had studied the peculiar
tiles Of Jeremy, who was half-breed,
claimed he used trained muskrats to
locate the missing corpses. Others
claimed he knew the freakish twists
and turns Of the river and lake cur
rents so well that he needed no other
aid.
FISHERMAN John" began his unique
profession in 1876. His efficiency soon
attracted the attention of the entire

for the recovery Of many of the bodies.
