TITLE SELECTED FUR OLDSMOB|LE DESERT
 AND GIRLS PICTURE

After working through stacks of let ters that ran into the hundreds in an- swer to the Oldsmobile picture contest, the judges awarded the sl0 prize to Mrs. Maud W. Mackemson, 22l0 West Jefferson street, who submitted the following
 Desert Sands Hold No Terror for .Ais Car of Many Beauties.
 The task of awarding the prize was no small one because of the many good titles submitted, but in most cases the titles failed to connect up the three paramount features as suggested in the photograph, that is, the desert. the car and the girls. In the above answer, a reason is given for the car being in the desert sands which, on account of the cars power, hold no terror for the ma chine, and besides being a powerful car. it is a car of many beauties.
 Coming a close second was the title submitted by w. K. Kieruirr or 1908 North Third street, who suggested, "The desert will reveal unexpected iovs and beauties if you'll drive an Oldsmobile" This title is deserving of honorable mention.
 A few other titles submitted that are appropriate, are as follows:
 This faithful Olds. with it's stamina and speed, is like its beauties-far in the lead "The Last Victory drive" Beauty and the Best" The Oldsmo- bile Beauty and Dependability." Beauty and the cargo" "Olds Chick | en and Witches, with little dressing" {" l Accelerated Treble Cleft | There were several ''Desert Beau ties" and Desert Nymphs" suggested as titles and numerous others that failed to connect all of the features of the picture.

Average Height of People
of the Various Countries

The Germans, as a people, do not
constitute the tallest of the nations.
According to the report Of the Anthro-
pometric committee of the British as
sociation t1S83), of the nations Of the
British isles on the average the Scotch
stand first in height, 68.71 inches; the
Irish stand second, being 67.9O inches;
the English come next, 67.3e inches;
and the Welsh last, being 66.66
inches. The committee figured the av-
erage height of other nations III
inches as follows: American whites
in the United States, 67.67; French,
upper classes, 66.14: Germans, 66.1O;
Russians, 6604. They award the
greatest stature to the Polynesian
tribes, 6933 inches, and the lowest
stature of any known people to the
Bushmen of South Africa, with 52.7S

First Written AImanaCS
Compiled by the Greeks

The first written almanacs were
probably compiled by the Greeks of Al
exandria between 100 and $50 A. d.
Calendars are much older, the ancient
Romans having proclaimed the first
of the month, and posted notice of
it's occurrence in public place. The
first of the month thus came to be
called the Kalends from II call" or 81
proclaim. And thus the word calen-
dar was derived. Probably the old
est calendar in existence was found in
the ruins of Pompeii. 1t was cut upon
d square block of marble, upon each
side of which three months are regis
tered. The first almanac printed in
Europe covered the years 1875, 1494 and
1913, and was published at Buda, Hun
gary.

Conquest of Typhoid Is
Compared by Physicians
With Tetanus Victory

Wonderful achievement in medicine
tanus is the conquest Of typhoid fever.
Typhoid fever has been one of the his
toric pestilences of armies. The dis
covery in 1880 of the germ which caus-
ed it was one Of the very earliest
achievements of the bacteriOlOgists.
Yet even in 1898, writes Maj w. w.
Keen in Yale Review, when 1 published
a book on the Surgical Complications
and Sequels of Typhoid Fever" so lit
tie was positively known about it that
1 had to assemble proofs that the ty-
phoid bacillus could reach the blood
stream, that it could cause assesses in
bones and muscles, could cause gang
rene of the tissues and even of whole
limbs, infections of the gall bladder,
and many other surgical disorders.
In that same year in the war with
Spain we learned q fearful lesson Of
what it could do. Every fifth man in
our army of 100000 was attacked with
typhoid. 1t caused over sc per cent
of all the deaths in that war. Had the
same ratio held in the British army Of
over 100000 in the world war there
would have been more than 100000
cases Of typhoid. Instead of that,
down to November, 1915, there had
been only 4,571 cases! In our own
army on the Mexican border in 1915,
among 10000 troops only one man fell
i'll with typhoid, although it was preva-
lent in nearby towns. In our pres
ent army, from September 2, 1917, to
January 25, 1918, with a daily average
Of 742,625 men assembled from all over
the country, often from places where
autumnal typhoid was taking it's an
nual toll Of lives, only 119 cases of ty-
phoid occurred. Had the 1898 rate
prevailed there would have been 144,-
568 cases. AS soon as all these re-
cruits were protected by vaccination
the case rate fell so rapidly that in
the II weeks from December z, 1917,
to April 5, 1918-a period longer than
our war with Spain-there were only
ten cases among probably nearly L.
100000 men.

Why French Girls Prefer
To Wed YankS Instead of
Natives of Own Country

To win an American husband seems
to be the ideal of more than 40 per
cent of the Partisan young women.
At all events that is the result of
an inquiry conducted by LOeuvre,
Paris daily newspaper which
publishes a series of letters setting
forth the reasons that have guided the
writer's to give preference to Ameri-
cans over their compatriots.
Those who would rather marry
Frenchmen base their predilection
largely on patriotic grounds, but a
large percentage of young French
women confess to a wholehearted ad-
miration of the average Americans
breezy good humor and courtesy of
manner toward the other sex.
Several French girls who have had
opportunity to observe American home
life appreciate the easy camaraderie
between the sexes, and they come to
the conclusion that good cOmrade
must make a good husband.
Some fair writer's say that French
lovers are given to talking Overmuch
and are too fussy about their personal
appearance.

New Words and How They
Are Born and Find Their
Way Into Everyday Use

"CamOuf1age" is a manufactured
word nearly as new to the French as
to the English. You will not find it in
your French dictionary. But, some
how, it seems to express it's own mean
ing-all those devices which were used
to hide gun positions, etc., from the
spyhawks in the air. The word "com-
mandeer" was the chief gift of the
Boer war and is now most firmly es-
tablished in everyday talk. The trou-
bles of the "distressful counthry'
gave us the word boycott. 1t happened
that the surname Boycott belonged to
an Irish land owner whom the authori-
ties assisted to reap a harvest that
the peasants refused to touch by send
ing soldiers on his land. He was the
first man to be "boycotted," that is,
"sent to Coventry by his neighbors,
ostracised, put off the map. Mackin-
tosh, Shrapnel, Macadam, Maxim,
Guillotine, Brougham, Victoria, Carl
baldi, Gladstone and Lynch are all ex-
amples of surnameS becoming dictiOn-
ary words of the very commonest kind.

Miqrati0n of Butterflies
Is a Most Beautiful Sight

A man from South America recently
came north. He stopped for some time
in Panama, and in speaking of the
country he said: zone of the most
beautiful sights in the world is the
annual migration of the butterflies
across the Isthmus of Panama. Where
they come from and whittier they go
no one knows, and though many dis
tinguished naturalists have attempted
to solve the problem, it is still as
strange a mystery as it was the first
time a European traveller beheld the
sight.
Toward the end of June few scat
tered specimens are discovered fit
ting out to sea and rs the days 60
by the number increases, until about
July II or Is, when the sky is at times
almost obscured by myriads of these
frail insects. It is wOndrOusly beau
tiful."

NorWegians Expert WhaIers;
Big Fortunes Made in Oil

The Norwegians are the most expert
whalers today, and the most success
full whaling ground just now is the
South Atlantic, in the neighbOrhooC
of South Georgia, the South Shetlands,
and the South Orkneys. The use Of
steam whalers has produced an enOr
nous increase, for whereas in 1906
only 1873 whales we're caught in the
Antarctic islands, last year 1916 were
caught, the total value of the prod
ucts being $7,56O,OOO. No fewer than
268,O00 barrels of oil, valued at s.,
10000, were got from the whales
the bone brought $3.50, and the
guano, $12,OO5. In addition there
were 2,491 sea elephants and IS sea
leopards killed, valued at $4,000.
