Woman Uses Less Force In
Speaking ls Reason She Can
Talk Longer Than Mere Man

A woman can talk longer than q
man, says the San Francisco Chron-
icle, because she uses less force in
speaking than the man does. A pro-
fessor has proved BY delicate meas.
urements that the barytone singer uses
far more energy than the tenor. and
that the bass singer uses more force
than either.
The difference between the force
used by the contralto and the soprano
singer Il marked. and the c0ntralto
who sings In deep tones uses at least
ten times the force Of the thrilling
soprano.
The explanation Is go simple that
1t is surprising that the Investigation
was not made before. It has long
been known that the tenor or soprano
brings the vocal cords close together
and keeps the edges only vibrating BY
the emission Of air. The bass or con-
tralto leaves the space between the
cords wider open and has to vibrats
much more Of the membranes. SO that
considerably larger amount Of air ID
required and much more force Is ex.
pended.
Persons with high. sQueaky voices
often seem to be loQuacious, and the
reason IL now plain-they can talk
With far less effort than those who
take q deeper tone and have to use
more cir to utter their words. Thus
woman can outtalk q man because
she has the advantage Of using from
one-seventh to one-sixteenth less lung
power.

ONLY A FEW COPIES LEFT

Did you receive . copy Of the Sedg-
wick County Prosperity Edition which
was issued by the Grit-Advocatc Feb
10th. We are indeed pleased as well
as encouraged by the many compli-
ments which we had bestowed upon us
relative to the big edition. and in an
swer to the same We can only say that
we sincerely hope that our efforts in
the publication of the Prosperity Edi-
ton will be the means of beneficial re-
suits to this fertile territory.
We have sold hundreds of extra cop
les and at the present time have only
a few left This fact alone, consid-
ering the large number printed. is evil
dence to US that the paper has created
a demand by the citizens of this com
munity. If there are any persons who
still wish q few copies of this edition
we can furnish them while the supply
lasts, but trat certainly won't he long
a. they are going fast, and the supply
is limited.

Business Men Hold
Interesting Meeting

wonders in building up = community
Let US all put our shoulders to tn,
wheel and attend regularly the noon
day luncheons which are again to be
a reality here.
The matter of a public rest room
was thoroughly discussed and it was
apparent that the only thing to pre-
vent the establishment of such 4 con-
venience in our city was the fact that
at this time, there seems to be nc
available building which can be uti
lized for this purpose.
Mayor Austin was present at this
meeting, and informed the gathering
that he was certain the town council
would stand behind such a movement
if an available building could be se-
cured. There is no question but that
a public rest room in Julesburg would
be big asset, as well as conven-
ience of great importance to those
visiting our city.
Julesburg is becoming more and
more the recognized trading center Of
this large and fertile territory, and
the business men of this city are anx-
ious to cooperate in every possible
way with the trading public. 1t is
to be hoped that some means will b.
devised in the early future whereby
public rest room will be provided
for.
Another matter was taken up a
the meeting of the business men. tn
result of which plans are now being
arranged for the entertainment of
the farmers and their wives. who viii
be in attendance at the Farm Bureau
meeting to be held in Julesburg next
Saturday.
A committee composed of Jacob
Frickel, Jr., f. A. Gamble and p. r.
Mcdowell, was appointed to take care
of this matter 1t is the plan to en-
tcrtain the farmers at a luncheon to
be held at the Brown Hotel dining
room Saturday at 1890 p. NJ, at
which a short program will be render
ed and feed provided. The bust
ness men and their wives will also be
present and it will be pleasant "get
together" gathering. The visiting
farmers and their families are extend
ed a cordial invitation to attend this
occasion.

NEWSY NOTES FROM SEDG-
WICK COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL

Last Friday night our basket ball
teams were scheduled to play dou-
Bile header at Lodgepole as return
game for that played here Feb. 9Th.
Although at train time it looked like
part of the players and coaches had
decided to stay in dear old Julesburg,
we managed to reach our destination
in time for the game. Our girls play
ed rings around the Lodgepole team,
trimming them to the tune of II to 2.
The boys were not so successful, how
ever. and in spite of fine playing, lost
with a score of II to Al. The Lodge
pole gymnasium is far larger than
ours and both teams got plenty of ex-
erciss in playing there. We returned
via freight Saturday morning to re-
port our mixed fortunes to the home
folks.
Saturday evening the Scdgwick boys
team met ours in the s. c. H. s. GYM
nasium, and were defeated, the score
being IA to 3 in our favor. A preim-
mary game was played between the
nigh school girls team and the town
girls. AS usual we carried off the vic
tory. securing 6 points to their 4. Nei-
ther game was as full of life as it
might have been and we wish to say

A meeting of the business men Of
yulesburg was held last Friday even
ing at the Parker Brothers Land Of
flee in this city. Several subjects
pertaining to the welfare and progress
sf this community were discussed,
chief among which was that Of the
advisability of again resuming the
noon day luncheons which were for
merly held in this city. and also the
matter of providing = public rest
room for visitors to Julesburg.
After considerable discussion rela-
tive to the MONDAY luncheons, it was
unanimously decided that the business
men Of our city again get together on
regular occasions round the festive
table for the purpose of discussing
and keeping in closer touch with the
various matters of public interest and
benefit to the community. Upon mo-
ton. duly seconded and unanimously
carried, President B. d. Parker, Jr.,
Of the Commercial Club was author
lied to make arrangements for the
holding of luncheon by the business
men next Wednesday. March 5, at
1890 P. NJ, and within the next few
days the business men of our city will
be notified officially of the exact
date and place.
The Grit-Advocate is glad to see
little "pep" being instilled into the
Julesburg Commercial Club. which, as
we heard one of our business men re
mark recently, seemed to sleeping a
peaceful sleep. There is no argument
against the fact that real live com
rlunity organization in Julesburg isl
an absolute necessity, co-incident with
the rapid progress and prosperity of
the community.
Surely each and every business man
as we'll as all of our citizens, have a
Heartfelt interest in seeing Julesburg
push forward, and little time and
energy spent by each individual to-
wards cooperative lines will mean
great mutual beneficial results. The
noon-day luncheon feature, which
proved so successful here during tha
past two years, is the right step to
take at this time, as it tends to bring
the business men closer together. and
these influences and associations work

All who attended the tractor school
which closed at the Hipp Theater yes
terday, February Goth, after a two
days session, were well satisfied in
every respect. All that We were able
70 talk to said that they were 20 we'll
pleased that should school be held
within reasonable distance another
year, they will be sure to attend.
A no more timely subject than the
operation of tractors could possibly
have been studied in this community
1t is timely both from the standpoint
that there are many new tractor own
ers and also from the absolute neces
sity of keeping all the tractors work
ing this following season. We all
know that it takes power and plenty
of it to produce the most crops and
to get the farm work done on time.
If the tractors are laid up for repairs
or some little adjustments. it is val
liable time lost. The object Of these
tractor schools is to give tractor own
ers and others interested in power
farming some firt aid work for the
tractor.
A very fortunate feature of the
tractor school was its practicability
The instructors, Messrs. j. A. Peter
son and c. c. Frevberger from Craw-
ford, Nebr., certainly knew their sub
jects and knew how to bring out the
points in a clear understandable fash
ion. They started in at the beginning
and went through the principles of
operation of an internal combustion
engine, and step by step took up the
various systems into which the mech
anism of u tractor could be divided
For instance, mechanical and power
system. fuel and carbureting system,
ignition system, air and gas system.
If there has been any apprehen-
sion in this community about the use
of low-grade fuels in tractors, we are
glad to say that this school has clear
ed up this important phase of tractor
farming. We are now satisfied that
if a tractor is built right. it will op-
