To Reorganize
National Guard
Militia Bureau VIII Extend Call to
All States /

With the rapid return to this coun-
try of the National Guard divisions
that served in France. officials Of the
militia bureau of the war department
are making plans for an active cam
paign. to reorganize the National Guard
in every state in the union. Authority
has just been granted the bureau to
Increase its personnel.
The militia bureau will soon extend
q general call to all state troop lead
ers, urging them to give their co-opera-
ton in the formation of the national
militia. The new congress will be
urged to make adequate financial pro-
vision, for the re-estabIishment of the
National Guard on sound basis. The
military bill that failed to pass at the
last congress contained an appropria-
ton of more than $14,000,000 for the
National Guard and authorization for
the equipment of all state troops from
the surplus war material in war de-
partment depots. 1911.
Authority will be sought to accept
for enlistment for period of one year
all National Guardsmen who served in
France. The remainder of the six-year
enlistment period will be in the re-

Affection of the Elephant
Compared With That of Any
of the Domestic Animals

It is commonly supposed that all
large animals Of tropical jungles ex-
press a sense of ferocity, but this
is not true of the elephant, which is
only fierce when his self-protection
demands it. Perhaps no other animal
is so affectionate as the elephant.
Whatever a horse, dog, cat or any
domestic animal will do for it's master,
an elephant will do, If 1t is possible,
with equal promptness. However, this
is the case only if the elephant has
been treated with kindness.
In the East, in India and IN Africa,
elephants are not properly rewarded
for their kindness and service to man.
In India this creature is hunted,
made prisoner, and forced to work In
great lumber yards. In Africa, his
existence is threatened because OF the
way that men track him down for
ivory. If only the demands for ivory
would cease, the elephant might be
free to go about his accustomed ways
and then he would always show his
affectiOnate nature.

Eight Well Defined Spots

With Three-Inch Telescope


There are, at present, eight very

of them lie, in groups of two. along
parallel to the suns equator, and
about Is degrees north of it. The
other two are close together and
about the same distance south of
the solar equator, near the suns east
ern limb. If seen near the horizon
these parallels are almost vertical.
Since one cannot look directly at
the sun, these spots can be best seen
by focusing the image of the sun
on white card held at little dis
lance from the eyepiece of the tell
escope or field glass. When the i'm
age of the sun is three inches in diam
eter, these spots appear to be about
one-sixteenth of an inch in diameter,
or about One-fifteenth of the suns die

ual breadth about 1900 miles, or
somewhat more than twice the diane
ter of the earth. Their nature is not
precisely known, but they are believed
to be eruptions in the suns surface.
The gigantic scale of solar activity
is well illustrated by their enormous
size.
The only influence that sun spots
have been actually demonstrated to
have on the earth is on it's magnetism.

Bells Originally Used to
Clear Air of Evil Spirits

The use of bells originated in SUI
perstitiOn. They were first used in
China great many centuries ago, and
their original purpose was to dispel}
and clear the air of ''eyil spirits" also
to break up and drive away storms.
From China bells were eventually in
troduced into Europe. Old records tell
us how the tolling of bells kept the
spirits of darkness from assailing
people while in the act of worship.
Hence the connection of bells with
churches. Tt was only a compare
lively recent date that bells were used
for calling the people to church. For
ages they were designed solely for
keeping evil spirits at a safe distance.
