Javanese Use No Nails, No
lron-0nIy Bamboo-in
Construction of Bridges

The natives of Java have bridge
building technique which utiIizes to
the limit their slight resources for
work of this character. OF raw mate
rails they are acquainted with but two,
and one of these is really product
of their own ingenuity. They have
no nails, no iron, no true wood; they
are forced TO rely entirely upon bam-
boo for the structural parts, and upon
a rope of their own manufacture to eff.
feet the junctures. In spite of these
limitations, they achieve highly credit
able results.
The original clement which the
Javan natives have brought to the con-
struction of these bridges is made of a
fiber taken from the native aren-palm,
which grows all over the island. This
fiber is of black and horny substance.
1t makes n rope that resists effective
ly the heavy decaying action of the
hot and damp tropical climate with
its legions of fungi; in fact, it lasts for
many years without any indications Of
r0ttinc.

Majority of Big Animals
Are Extremely Lazy Even
in Their Native Haunts

Though not generally, known, most
of the big carnivora are extremely
lazy, in their native haunts-only ex-
erttng themselves when in need of
food, and often going without 1t for
sheer Incidence.
Animals of the geological gardens
obtaining their food without any eff
fort on their own part grow stupid and
i'll for lack of exercise. The pac-
ing up and down, Just before meal
time IS not sufficient. Besides, ami
mails are like people; they need change
of scene and air. For this reason the
animals in a circus or show are really
more fortunate than their brothers in
the geological gardens.
The trick animals get plenty Of ex-
ercise during performance, and the
constant change of scene keeps them
interested. Even such fierce animals
as leopards, tigers and lions enjoy
going through their tricks from sheer
relief of the monotony of their cages,
and often the big cats are quite play
full during the time of their training,
not from any love of man, but from a
love of motion.

Eliminating Steam
Electi6cation Of Railroads Would
Conserve Coal Supply

Railroad electrifcation is still looked
upon by the general public and by rail-
road men as having it's chief merits in
relieving cities and tunnels of the OBJ
noxious smoke and cinders belched
forth by the steam locomotives. Elec-
trical men have in recent years en-
phasized the economy of electric train
service and In paper presented by
s. T. Dodd before the Western Rail-
way club this is very strikingly shown.
Mr.. Dodd cites figures proving that
100,000000 of the 140,000,000 tons of
coal now burned annually by our rail-
roads could be saved by general cleo
IRRIGATION. In view of the continued,
IL not increasing, need for conserv-
ing the fuel resources of the country
for future generations, the urgency of
attacking the problem and at least
checking this gigantic annual waste
should be given prompt and careful at
tention.-Electrical Review.

Samoyedes of the Russian
Province OF ErChangeI IS
One of Least Known Races

In the extreme north of the Rus

of the queerest and least known races
of mankind. These are the Samo-
yedes, the wandering tribes of the vast
frozen marshes which extend in these
regions from the forest belt to the
shores of the Arctic ocean. They wor-
ship idols and their sole wealth con-
sists in reindeer. Living. the reindeer
draws the sledge which transports the
Samoyetle and his belongings from
spot to spot in search of the game and
f.sh, which constitute his principal
sustenance. Dead, 1t provides him
with meat in times of scarcity. and
with skin for his family tent. With
its sharpened bones he tips his wood

spears. It's sinews he uses to sew to-
gether the shirt, breeches, and boots
of sealskin, which are the attire alike

THE SWANS OF YPRES


Ypres was once weaving town.
Where merchants jostled Up and down.
And merry shuttles used to ply;
On the looms the f1eeces were
Brought from the mart at Winchester.
And silver fox from Burgundy.
Who is weaving there tonight?
Only the moon, whose shuttle white
Makes silver warp on dyke and pond;
Her hands fling wells of lily-woof
On riven spire and open roof
And on haggard marsh beyond.
No happy ghosts or fairies haunt
The ancient city, budding gaunt.
Where wagons crawl with anxious
wheel,
And DER the marsh land desolate
Wind slowly to the battered gate
That Flemings can the gate of Lille.
Yet BY some wonder it befalls
That. where the lonely outer walls
Brood in the silent pool below,
Among the sedges of the moat,
Like lilies furled. the two swans float;
The Swans of Ypres. men call them now.
They have heard guns and many men
Come and depart and come again.
They have seen strange, disastrous
things,
When fire and fume rolled DER their nest;
But changeless and aloof they rest,
The Swans of Ypres, with folded wings.

Sahara Desert Once Well
Watered and Fertile Says
Professor of Egyptology

The Sahara desert was once well wa
tered and fertile, and hunters from
the Sahara plateau, moving gradually
down through rift in North
eastern Africa, located where Egypt
now lies, according to DR.. James
Henry Breasted, professor of Egyp-
tology and oriental history, Uni
versity of Chicago.
Doctor Breasted said that this all
happened about the time of the stone
age. Egypt was then one huge lake,
but 1t gradually drained out into the
Mediterranean. leaving the Nile valley.
Here the hunters were afforded every
natural resource and founded a civ
ilization which outstripped Europe. 1t
was about 1000 or 5000 B. c. that
Egypt had a stable government con-
trolling millions of souls.
The grain of Egypt was 1000 years
older than that found in Asia. says
Doctor Breasted, and cattle undoubt-
edly had their origin in Africa. Tho
stone age founders of Egypt early de-
veloped from hunters to farmers and
used the oldest metal instruments
made by human agency. They evil
IDENTIFY discovered the metal there; and
a system of writing was evolved in
Egypt thousands of years before
Christ.
