NEVER KNEW He WAS BEATEN
That Quality, Among Many Others,
Accounts for Andrew Jackson's
Rise to Greatness.

The bOyhood friends Of Andrew
Jackson, so the story goes, could never
quite understand how Jackson became
so great general-not to say presi-
dent-while the rest of them remained
simple pioneer citizens at home.
why, Jim Brown, right down the
pike here" they said. "could throw
Andy three times out Of four; and look
where he Is now!"
How did there happen to be q
fourth timer" asked some one. "Usu-
ally It's three times and out, isn't itT'
Sure It is. But Andy. you see.
never had the sense to know when he
was beat. He would never stay
throwed. So, by and by Jim would get
tired out throwing him and stay
throwed himself. And then Andy
would think he'd beat him."
There is whole sermon In a nut
shell In that simple little anecdote.
The thing that counts Is not how many
times you are "throwed," but whether
you are willing to "stay throwed."
Your adversary, whether he be a
person or a misfortune or a difficulty.
or just hard job, can be tired out in
the end by throwing you just as sure
", If not as swiftly, as by your throw
ing him. 1t is merely q question Of
which Of you gives in--in his mind
first, and "stays throwed." Remember
that ~ outh's Companion.

STUDY OF VOLCANOES
Department OF Agriculture Has Taken
Up New Line, Which Is Bound to
Be Of Interest.

The department Of agriculture has
begun the extensive observation of the
volcanoes within its borders and in
sular possessions, and has recently
taken formal charge OF the observa-
tory on Kilauea, Hawaiian islands.
Prof. 7. A. Jaggar. Jr., formerly OF the
Massachusetts Institute Of Technology,
who has been director Of the observa-
tory since Its foundation, will remain
In charge. The investigations at Kill
auea were begun in 1912, under the au-
spices Of the Massachusetts Institute
Of Technology, and since 1913 have
been maintained at the expense of the
Hawaiian Volcano Research associa-
ton, consisting chiefly Of residents OF
Honolulu. It is expected that the
weather bureaus work In volcanology
will be developed in many details and
eventually be extended to Alaska and
other regions under the control Of the
United States in which active vol
canoes exist.

lieve they have a sufficient stock on

vision has decided that it would be wise
to suspend knitting as one Of the regu-
lar activities until the present stocks
are depleted. They suggest that we fin-
ish the articles in the process of manu-

Following closely came our entry
into the great war. and Pershing
sailed for France. Thousands Of cars
were needed quickly by the American
ENpeditionary Forces. Transporta-
ton. the back bone Of the army, was
the Governments first thought.
Within short time Dodge Brothers
Motor Car was officially selected as
the only car of it's class for use in all
our military operations Training
camps and cantonments all over the
country had their Dodge Brothers
cars in active service. Thousands
went to Pershings men in France.
Other thousands were put to every
possible transportation use in the
United States. CantOnments had
their fire trucks. police patrols, hos
pital ambulances. and other special
bodies mounted on Dodge Brothers
chassis.
Dodge Brothers cars We're used for
training the first Motor Car Division.

ston. Jacksonville. Fla.
During the terrific storms Of last
winter transportation was Il serious
problem. Hundreds of these cars
were boxed at the works for export.
and carried to the seaboard on mo-
tor trucks, travelling IN trains of
! thirty to sixty trucks at a time. 9th
err hundreds were driven to Atlantic
ports under their own power, in solid
trains of as many as one hundred
and twenty cars, where they were
, Grated for overseas shipment.
If these cars had seen strenuous
service in Mexico and in the United
States. tho work they have been
called upon to perform in France.
Belgium, England. Russia. and Italy
has been more strenuous still.
Perhaps one of the most interest
ing letters is one received at the

Dodge Brothers Motor Cars and the
y. S. Government

When Pershing and his soldiers
crossed the border into Mexico, the
old style pack train was there to do
it's part as in other wars. But times
had changed. and better transporta-
ton was the keynote of modern war;
fare. The mule train was too slow.
ard speed was vital. This was the
first opportunity that the Government
had to test the utility of the motor
car Cars were needed. and needed
quickly. Pershing ordered many diff
ferent makes. for he had no way of
knowing which could successfully
combat the hardships OF forced en-
trance into that rOndless country.
Several hundred Dodge brothers cars
were supplied by local dealers along
the border. and it was only Il short
time before the performance Of these
cars became favorably conspicuous.
