If all must end this way?
A slight sound aroused her atten-

fallen asleep in the rocking chair. Inc
soft lace on her bosom rose and fell
gently, evenly; and one large tear
strayed slowly down her cheek. what

WHY LOSS OF SENSE
OF DIRECTION CAUS-
ES CIRCLING
Travelling By Landmark or
Compass Only Way
To Avoid This

The tendency Of the person who
has entirely lost his sense of di-
rection to circle is we'll known
and has been repeatedly proved by
experiment" says George GLADDEN.,
in an article, con Being Lost" in
the November issue Of Boys Life.
"The most plausible reason for this
circling is that it is due to the un-
equal strength of the two sides Of
the body. That is, if the right side
be stronger than the left-which
usually is the case-longer strikes
will normally be taken with the
right leg than with the left, and
this will cause circling to the right.
The circling seems always to occur
when one becomes hopelessly lost
and is likely to continue until the
victim drops from sheer exhaus-
ton. One instance on record is
that Of a lost man who, after walk
ing steadily for six days and
nights, finally stumbled into
camp only about six miles from his
starting point. Five miles of
travel in a straight line in any
direction from that point would
have brought him out Of the woods
and incidentally would have saved
him from the loss Of his feet, both
Of which were so badly frozen that
their amputa.ion was necessary.
"TraVeling by landmark, or by
compass, are the only sure ways
to avoid circling. Landmarks
should be observed carefully and
frequently, for as one proceeds
they are likely to change their ap-
pearance, sometimes very consider
ably. The Importance Of the COM
pass to the lost man is, of course,
very great, provided he uses it in
telligently. And part of that in
telligence will be shown by abso-
Lutte confidence in the instrument
for the present purposes. Mag
netic variation,' that is, the differ
ence between the magnetic north,
as shown by the compass, and true
north may be disregarded for ordi-
nary pathfnding in the woods, as
the DETECTION is not sufficient to
throw the traveller seriously off his
desired course. But beware Of
local attraction, such as would be
established if the compass were
held near any iron or steel object,
like an axe or a knife or a belt
buckle. To make sure that the
needle is not being affected in this
way put the compass on the ground
and note whether the needle keeps
its position in both places. Very
rarely compass will be affected
by mass Of iron ore beneath the
surface Of the ground"

by making a sensational run in
the End period. Crompton played

I'VE should not close our eyes
to the fact that democracy is
something more, than a mere form
Of government by which society is
restrained into free and orderly
force as well. And these are
things which live only in the at
mosphere of liberty. The founda-
tion upon which democracy rests
is faith in the moral instincts of
the people. Its ballot boxes, the
franchise, its laws, and constitu-
tons are but the outward mani
festations Of the deeper and more
essential thing-a continuing trust
in the moral purpose of the aver
age man and woman. When this
is lost or forfeited your outward
forms, however democratic in
terms, are a mockery. ."-Senator
Borah.
