ICE FREEZES IN SUMMER
But There is None Formed In That
Cave In Winter.

Ice freezes in summer time, but not
in winter in the DEBORAH Ice Cave.
In Winneshlek county, northeastern
Iowa. While ice does not invariably
form in the walls Of the cave all sum
mer, 1t is there many OF the warmer
months, while in the fall and early
winter the walls are dry and bare.
The State Geological society's ex-
PLANTATION Of the phenomenon is that
in the winter the temperature in the
cave, the same as outside. goes below
the freezing point. However. all mols-
ture near the surface has been sealed
in the ground and rocks by the frost
and no water finds It's way into the
cave The walls OF the cavern get
colder and colder, and retain the cold.
When spring thaws release the water
1t trickles into the cave across the
cold walls and then freezes. That con
dltion continues until late in summer.
The cave is the only one Of its kind
known in Iowa.

GUARD LoNG-RANGE GUNS
Germans Holding Huge Cannon Well
Protected In Coast Fortresses.

The whereabouts of the big guns
with which the Germans bombarded
Paris during the last few months of
the war is question frequently asked
both in Germany and out Of it.
Mai. Trepper, formerly attached to
the German war ministry and a par
ticipant in the armistice parleys, was
recently asked whether Germany had
pledged herself to hand over these
guns.
Trepper is quoted as saying that
Germany had given no such pledge.
and added that II the French wished
to know where the guns were, they
can be told that they are well hidden
and guarded in German fortresses on
the coast.

men, and women, too. are patching

But these instances are few. In
most cases the destruction was so
that nothing is left for the
poor Belgian but to build new house.
But the people are happy and cheer

smiling faces and merry laughter.
