 When the Treasury Department of the United States began attempting to solve the financial problems that be world war, the United States was debtor nation. It owed vast sums to Europe. Those at the head of the admins tration did not want to anl- pose burdensome direct taxation on the people. and the Liberty Loan and the War Savings Stamp plans were conceived

There is more money in the banks today. despite the more than S20.00o, COG. .000 that has been raised by popular loans and used to win the war, than there was before the war began.
 But the Liberty Loans have ceased Now those at the head of the nation 8 finances are seeking to clinch the les sons learned and are urging the permanent establishment o1 War Say tngs Societies. Not that the country has the same urgent need for funds that 1t did while the war vas in prog ress. though the need is still urgent enough. but mainly because 1t has been found that the people have re sponded 90 generously to the calls for aid and have laerned for themselves lessons of thrift that could be learned in no other way.

Wonderful Invention for the
Blind

A fete, promoted by the en-
ployes of Messrs. Barr & Stroud
in aid of Scottish blinded and fa-
cially injured service men, was
opened in the M'Lellan Galleries,
Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow. The
promoters aim at raising $40, 900
to be divided between the Scottish
Blinded Soldiers and Sailors Hos
tel, Newington House, Edinburgh,
and the Queens Hospital for Sail
ors and Soldiers suffering from
facial injuries, Frognal, Sidcup,
Kent. Emeritus Professor Archi-
bald Barr, who presided, said up
till now the blind had not been
able to read except from specially
prepared volumes, but through a
wonderful invention of DR.. Tour
nier d'Albe, London, there was
hope that very shortly that they
would be able to read any printed
book or newspaper. Their firm
was devoting themselves to that
instrument, and he hoped that by
the help of the workers it would
be success.-Ex.

StereoscOpe in the War

The information comes late, but
is none, the less interesting, that
the old fashioned stereoscope,
easily recalled by many people as
an entertaining ornament of par
lor tables, helped materially in
winning the war;" The stereo-
scope gives to the combined
images of two photographs of the
same scene an effect of depth lack
ing in the single picture; it makes
things stand out because optically
the subject is looked at with two
eyes, as a man looks, instead of
with only one, as looks the camera.
This idea was applied to aerial
photography, two pictures being
taken, as if the Photographic lens
was first one eye then the other,
100 yards apart, of an observing
giant And the two pictures, COM
bined by looking at them through
a stereoscope corrected the fiatness
of the single photograph revealed
the relative heights of different
objects and. often defed enemy eff
forts to camoufage. .-Ex.

SOUTH AFRICA
How Certain Towns Were Started in the South
End of the Dark Continent
Selected

would recall scenes from the time
of the vOortrekers.
There are four buildings of i'm
portance in all typical dorps: First
is the polite kantoor police de-
pot) which is the center area. The
members of this mounted force
have not only the supervision of
very scattered body of whites, but
also the oversight of a large native
population. 1t says much for the
fair way in which the natives are
handled and for their naturally
peaceable natures, that the offenses
to be dealt with are usually of
trivial character.
Next in Importance among the
buildings is the church; plain al
most to ugly severity but general
ly one of the most substantial
buildings. Then comes the post
Office, with its bi-lingual notices;
for, since the Boer war and the
settlement of the Union, the Dutch
and English languages are now
given an equal position even in dis
tricts which are essentially Eng
lish. Finally. there is the town
hall. Every dorp aspires to
town hall, even though it be built
of wood and iron. It may have to
serve as a market hall, or for
picture show at times.
The visitors general impression
is that life is quiet and peaceable,
no one seems to hurry, every one
appears to have time to tarry and
talk. Business often takes a Sec
ond place in store until the small
social amenities have been ex-
changed. 1t is usual to apply the
term sleepy" to all dorps; the
gentle accusation may be true after
the hurry of Durham or Johannes
burg, and certainly would be just
if thinking in terms of New York.
Life is happy. the air is warm, the
simple necessaries are easily OBJ
tained, and, provided that one is
not possessed by the fiery ambi-
tion of the hustling type, peace
and calm may easily compensate
for the lack of some of the veneer
of modern civilization which, after
all, is so thin.
