BELGIANs PROUD OF CITIES
On Their Centers of Industry They See
Embodied the Glorious History
of the Past.

No man shall say we love our land
less than a Frenchman loves France,
less than a Belgian loves his native
land. We have our holy cities. Win
chester and Canterbury, and hundred
more whose old, names are dear to
speak. Yet l believe, writes Lon
doner'' in the London Evening News,
that the Belgian has a patriotism of
the city, Of the town, which we never
had.
The story of that love for the city
is all the history Of Belgium. The his
tory of the freedom and the wealth
and the ancient arts of Belgium is
In the history of Antwerp and Bruges,
of Brussels and Ghent, and LOuvain
and Ypres. 1t begins with the build
ing of the town WALL with the market
that grows up behind the shelter of
walls and armed gates, with the rails
ing of the tall belfry, the towns pride,
and the hanging of the bells.
If you were a tourist who could see
the glory of old Flanders and Brabant
you would look not at the cathedral or
the church, although Belgium has
many noble old churches, but at the
town hall and the belfry. The like OF
them is not in any other country.

First to Teach Deaf Mutes.

The first American institution for
the education of the deaf and dumb
was founded in Hartford in 1917 by
DR.. Thomas II. Gallaudet, who was
born in Philadelphia 131 years ago.
He was educated at Yale and at
Andover Theological seminary, and
It was his intention to enter the min
istry. Before leaving Andover, how
ever, he had decided to devote MS
life to the instruction of deaf mutes,
for whom no provision had been made
anywhere in America. He remained
at the head of the Hartford tnstitu-
ton from 1917 until 1880, when Ill
health forced his retirement. The
first systematic attempt to instruct
the deaf and dumb in Europe was
made in 1870 by Pedro de Ponce, a
Benedictine monk Of Spain. The first
British institution of this kind was
opened in Edinburgh in 1773.

Chinese Lanterns.

Particularly gay and attractive are
the shops of the lantern venders in the
Chinese cities. All varieties Of Ian

ones three and four feet high, gor-
geously painted with variegated colors,
embroidered in gold and silver or dec
grated with deep fringe of the same
material, costing from 500 to 5000 and
used by the wealthy mandarins and
others; and common small horn and
paper lanterns, used by the coolies,
which cost one-sixteenth of a dollar.
The mode of making horn lanterns is
very ingenious; the horns are cut into
remarkably thin slices which, by means
of heat and pressure, are Joined to-
gether and formed into various shapes
round, square, hexagOn, Octagon, and
some shaped to resemble an hour glass;

Influence of Good Books.

When you find a child who loves
good books, the noxious weeds Of
envy, hatred, jealousy and malice are
not so likely to grow in his mind and
choke out the exquisite blossoms of
love, tenderness, unseltishness, graft
tude and the desire to do unto others
as he would be done by. The love OF
good books is one foundation for good
character, observes a writer in the
Oklahoman. 1t is the exception, not
the rule, to encounter sordidness, greed
or insens'Dility in the man or woman
who knows and loves good books. Rob-
ert Louis Stevenson once said that SO
long as a man had a friend he had
something to live for. Is it not true
so long as one can love good and
beautiful book that life never will be
without hope?

Evening.

Last Friday night the fast basket
ball five from the Agricultural
School defeated the team from
Browns Valley by the close score OF
80 to 25. superintendent H. q.
Maxon brought over one OF the
strongest teams which Browns Val
ley has developed in recent years.
The game was replete with sensa-
tional plays. The team work of both
teams was excellent. The Browns
Valley team was leading by five
point margin during the second half
when the local team threw several
baskets in quick succession and wen
the game. Eastman and Erdahl were
the stars for the Farm School. Hal
yorson, Hoff and Mahoney also did
excellent work.

OPPOSED OIL PIPE LINES
Teamsters Defeated Proposition
Which Had Its Origin In Brain of
Heman Jones, Pennsylvania.

It was an American, Heman Jones
of Erie, Pa, who first conceived the
idea of the construction of an OIL pipe
line 1t was to be of wood four inches
in diameter, but was not executed. A
year later, in 1862, a bill was intro
duced into the legislature authorizing
q pipe line from Oil Greek to Kittan-
ming, Pa, (the state in which oil was
first discovered), but it got no further,
through the opposition of 1000 team
sters. In fact, for some years the
teamsters made impossible the sue
cess of the pipe lines. They were do
ing very we'll out Of the existing meth
DDS of transportation, earning $40 to
$50 day, and they viewed with vim
dictive disfavor the loss of dollars
and weekly revelries. Both in 1868
and in 1865 the teamSterS wrought
havoc on the two pipe lines construct
ed in those years. Eventually prog
ress gained the day, and many lines
were laid, including one 1O2 mileSslOng
in 1880. 1t was not, however, till John
D. Rockefeller and his associates took
the matter in hand eliminating all the
old-fashiOned methods of production
and transportation, that petroleum be-
gan to be the power and prOtit-it is to-
day. In 1860 the United States pro-
duction of petroleum was 21,OOO,OOO
gallons. In 1917 it had risen to 49,
44O,OOO,OOO gallons. Gasoline is still
the chief derivative, but fuel oil has
a great future.

fee pot, throwing away much good
flavor that is not used. Tea may also
be ground, getting double the flavor.
Do not throw away the bacon rind;
it adds delicious favor to vegetables,
taking the place Of butter. A piece
of bacon rind added to the dish of
string beans or cabbage makes most
appetizing vegetable.
If fruit ferments or sours do not
throw it into the garbage; cover with
cold water, simmer until all the juice
is extracted and pour it into the vine
gar jug that is making your vinegar.
All the rinsings from fruit jars, jelly
glasses and preserving kettles should
be saved for the homemade vinegar.
Vinegar may be made from various
fruits, but the apple is considered the
best flavor for general use. Cider al
lowed to stand with q small piece of
mother until it is sour makes the
best vinegar, but very good kind may
be made by using apple peelings and
cores, as well as all windfalls, cutting
out any decayed or wormy portions.
Cover this cut-up apple with cold wa
ter, scald to extract all the juice, then
strain into the vinegar cask, adding O.
few tablespoonfuls of any good sirup,
which hastens the souring. Let the
cask stand in the sun and in a few
weeks the vinegar will be ready to
use.
A little vinegar added to tough meat
while cooking will make a tender,
palatable dish when cooked
Instead of throwing away the cores
and peeling of pineapple or peaches
put them in kettle with water and
let them simmer until all the flavor
is extracted. This juice may be bot.
tied for beverages or may be added ia
apple juice, making a jelly of rare
flavor.

SEE HERMANN OUSTED
American and National Leaguers OPP
posed to National Commission Head

New York, Jan. 28.-Infor iation
reached the United Press today which
foreshadowed retirement of Garry
Hermann as chairman of the nation
al commission. 1t has been learned
that votes in both the American and
National leagues were SO strongly set
against the president of the Reds
when the joint meeting was held here
this month, that his ousting then was
believed to be only a matter of hours.
The only present bar to his imme-
date dispossession OF Tie high seat in
the supreme court of the game is the
fact that the committe" named by the
two leagues so far has failed to find
a man capable of filling the place.
1t may be said. however. that men
now are under consideration whose
long association with the game fits
them for the place at once and who
would have no trouble in juggling the
language of the agreement unde'
which the two major leagues operate
Among these is said to be 1. Z. San
born, a Chicago sports writer.

PURIFY BLUE SKY
Kansas Law To Be Made More
Drastic in Proposed Bill.
New Measure Drawn by Wilson,
Organ and Brewster.
mi nNI7ATInN ccHEMES hit
COLONIZATION SCHEMES HIT
Companies Must Tell All OF
Truth About Their Land.
FOrbids Selling of Oil Prospect
for a Real Royalty.

The Kansas blue sky law will be-
come bluer and the clouds under
which takers have operated will be
removed if the legislature lasses a
1..easure that former Attorney Cen
eraI Brewster has drawn in co-opera-
ton with Walter L. Wilson, state
bank commissioner, and Frank Organ,
head of the blue sky department.
The purpose of the new measure is
to plug all holes in the present Inv and
make it more effective in the protec-
ton of Kansas investD -. Three i'm
portant changes are made by the bill.
one relates to the sale of lands one
to the sale of oil royalties and one
to the time Il compa7-- or corpora
ton may begin the sale of its stock IN
the state.
The Kansas blue sky law was put
to the test while Brewster was at
torney general, and there is probably
not a man in the state as well versed
in its operation, or better acquainted
with its merits and its faults
Hits Colonization Companies.
The land sale changes will make
ii impossible for the fake colonization
companies to come into the state ana
sell land that is not productive be-
cause of lack of water or other OBJ
stacles. 1t is asserted that number
o. companies holding arid lands IN
Texas and other states which could
not be cultivated without irrigation
and upon which irrigation was prac-
ticaIly impossible have been doing a
great deal of business in Kansas and
lave so operated that it has been i'm
possible for the attorney general to
get a t them under the provisions of
the old law The bill that Brewster
has drawn will prevent this.
The next most important feature OF
the new measure is that it will clear
ly define just what an oil royalty is
and will make it impossible to sell
for sood money what is purported to
be an oil royalty when in reality it
is only a prospect. Also, it will make
it impossible to sell so-called second
royalties.
There will be no such thing as a
second royalty under the new law, and
the blue sky department asserts that
there has never been any such thing
Is a second royalty. But just the same
certain manipulators in the Augusta
and other fields of the state have been
selling second royalty rights and it is
asserted that investors have lost thou
sands of dollars thru this scheme.
Must Obtain Approval.
The third important feature of the
new bill is that when it becomes a law
it will be impossible for a corporation
to sell stock in the state until after
1t has received the approval of the
blue sky department. The law now
reads that stock shall not be sold un-
til after application has been made
for permission to do so, and number
of concerns have taken this to mean
that they could begin selling as soon
as they made application and have be-
gun selling their stock without waiting
for the approval or the disapproval of
the blue sky department. .4
