New Jersey for ten months. The loss
in ten weeks has been sufficient to

eight months" Mr.. Callahan declared
that If there are not cars at the mines
II is impossible to operate the mines
to fulltime capacity. The shortage
OF cars had come, he said, at the time.
demand for coal is increasing, and at
a time when railroad efficiency should
be at its highest
Cars Must be Supplied.
"If the bitum.nous coal operators of
the country are given sufficient CARS to
take away the coal they mine" Mr..
Callahan said. "and IL there are no
labor disturbances to prevent the
operation of their mines, they can
supply sufficient fuel to meet the
country's requirements next fair and
winter. If they are not supplied with
more cars, there undoubtedly will be
repetition of the coal shortage of
1917-18, at least to some degree"
Shortage of cars is not alone the
only threatening situation in the in
dustry, however. according to Harry
N. Taylor of Kansas City, president
Of the association, who preceded Mr..
Callahan on the witness stand.
Miners Formulate Demands.
The 100000 miners employed
throughout the nation are about to
formulate demands for higher wages,
Mr.. Taylor declared. The more radical
among the number, he said, were en-
desvoring to apply the methods of the
Soviet government of Russia to the
bituminous industry. II their counsel
should sway the more conservative Of
their numbers and extremely RADICAL
demands should be made, which could
not be acceded to. Mr.. Taylor said he
doubted If the operators could mine a.
pound of coal"
ITO save the public from calamity
Mr.. Taylor said, 'it will be necessary
to overcome three things; first. that
we do not have an extraordinary
severe winter; second, that the rail
road administration move the coal in
regular manner. and third, that by ef-
fort of the miners we produce at least
/ 100000 tons of bituminous coal
weekly for the remaining nineteen
weeks of the year" This is more
than has been produced in any one
week during the year thus far, All

sides which, the baby usually is not
hungry when he cries.
Perhaps the realization. by a great
many mothers, that most babies do
better on feeding not closer together
than every four hours, has done more
to reduce infant deaths and infant
sickness than any other single know
ledge. At any rate it seems to me
that this fact constitutes the very be-
ginning of exact knowledge of how to
rear babies successfully.
Some babies may need feeding ev-
cry three hours. Possibly there may
be some who need food oftener. If
so, they need very competent doc
tor and good deal of personal

The Most Ancient Eou.

Just before the war began, during
excavations in the ancient Mogunti-
acum, under the auspices of the Archie
illogical society of Mayence, there
was found hens egg which was es-
timated to have been buried in the
earth for something like 10 centuries.
Moguntiacum was built by Drusus,
the son Of the Roman emperor Angus
tus, in the year IA B. G. Upon the
site of the ancient Roman castrum or
encampment near the city the excava-
tons in question brought to light many
interesting relics, including some wa
ter cisterns of Roman make. 1t was
in one of these. which was located
some 20 feet below the surface, that
a damaged Roman claypot was discov-
cred containing the shell Of broken
egg and also whole egg that had
been kept from being smashed by a
shred of the damaged pot, which COW

Explanation Of Humidity.

Humidity, technically speaking, says
the Philadelphia Press, is the amount
Of water or vapor moisture in the air.
A given space at given temperature
can contain only definite amount of
water. If it contains less it will en-
deavor to fill up by evaporation. If
it contains more the surplus water
will cOndense. When a mass of air
contains all the moisture it is capable
of holding it is said to he saturated.
The higher the temperature the more
moisture it takes to saturate the air.
If it contains less moisture than
would saturate it at given tempera-
ture, then the lower temperature at
which this would sufficient for satura-
ton is called the dew point. The per-
centage of moisture in the air to what
it would hold if saturated is called the
relative humidity. Thus, If the air
contains one-half the moisture neces-
sary to saturate it, the relative hui
nudity is so; if only third, it is 33.
1t, is of course, at it's maximum when
at 100 and fog forms and mist falls.

LAUDS COLLEGE CAMPAIGN
Minnesota Educator ConqratuIates
Wisconsin College Presidents Upon
Their Enterprise.

Here is what DR.. Donald J. Cowling,
president of Carleton College, North
field, Mimi, thinks about the So, OOO, 900
campaign of the Wisconsin Colleges
Associated:
May l offer my sincere congratula-
lions to the Colleges of Wisconsin on
the significant enterprise which they
have launched on the cooperative
campaign for s5,000,O00? The plans
and methods of this undertaking are
thoroughly in harmony with the spirit
OF the times and demonstrate the fun
damental unity of purpose on the part
of these associated institutions.
Wisconsin possesses one Of the
greatest State Universities In Amer
lea and every good citizen believes In
it's work and in providing It with ample
funds through taxation. The Colleges
of the State, however, have a work
peculiarly their own which can be done
acceptably only as they are provided
with financial support sufficient to
meet the educational standards set by
the University. This can be done
only by generous gifts from those
who believe in cultural education IN
der definitely Christian influences.
The spirit Of self-sacrifice which orig
inally led to the founding Of these col
leges. must be aroused again to main
tain them amid the more exacting
conditions Of today"
