URGES WOMEN TO
REGISTER EARLY
Miss Nell 5urrow, President of Won.
ans Club, Believes in Good
Roads

Women are being urged to register
In order that they may be prepared to
vote in the election for a $4,000 900 bond
Issue for permanent roads for Escam-
bia county. Miss Nell Burrow, presi-
dent Of the Pensacola Woman's club. in
speaking to The Journal. yesterday,
said:
81 am heartily in favor of the bond
issue, and think that the women should
register at once inorder that they may
be permitted to vote in the bond cleo
ton, if it is legal for them to do so.
If it is not, they will still have regis
tered for the election in November, and
so no time will be lost.
zone thing I think should be made
very clear, and that is that all women
court house on Monday, Wednesday
and Fridays, from 9 a. m. to l p. m,
and from p. m. to s p. m, with the
exception Of Mondays, when the offices
are open until p. m. in order that
business women and others who do not
have time to register may do so.
II am very much interested in the
bond issue, and particularly in the
Gulf Beach Highway development. I
believe that this will mean much for
this section of the state, for its COM
pletion will mean that many visitors
will come to Pensacola not only for
the winter months but as a year
round resort. think the Gulf beach is
one of Pensacola's greatest assets, and
1 think all women should vote for the
bond issue and help to develop the
county"
Miss Burrows said that she under
stood that a number of women had
visited the registration offices. to find
that they were not opened, and she be-
lieved that if the books could be kept
open at all times, it would greatly ia
cilitate matters, as many housewives
wish to vote and have not the time to
make several calls, only to find the
registration offices closed.

Australia's Young Citizens.

The problem of destitute children
was recently considered by the emigra-
ton sectional committee Of the Brit
ish national council of women at Cax-
ton hall. when Kingsley Fairbridge
described the work Of the children's
farm schools in western Australia.
Mr.. Fairbridge, who is headmaster at
the schools, explained that the insti-
tuition was started in 1909 by the
Child Emigration society, when a
party Of destitute children was sent
out from England to Western Aus
tralia The school dealt with the poor
est children they could find. In addi-
tion to their education. which was sup
piled by the government Of Western
Australia. they received instruction In
agriculture, and each child turned out
by the school was a new citizen for

LIGHTS OF IMMENSE POWER
Rays From Points on United States
Coast Are Visible Seventy Miles
Out At Sea.

The highest beacon light maintained
by the United States for warning
navigators is at Cape Mendocino, CAL.
422 feet above sea level. It has q
range Of % miles.
The brightest light and one Of the
most brilliant in the world is at
Navesink, N. J., on the highlands at
the entrance Of New York bay. It
is 25.OOO.OOO candle power and its
glare has been seen from 70 miles out
In the ocean.
The largest lighthouse ''lens' is at
Makapuu point, on the island Of Oahu
(Hawaiian group). Its beam at night
brings first news to voyagers from
the United States that they are near
ing the mid-Paciflc archipelago. It
is called a ''hyperradient," the inside
diameter of the lens being about nine
feet and that Of the glass lantern in
closing 1t 16 feet.
The lens Of the Navesink light in
closes q powerful electric arc. But,
generally speaking, kerosene is the
preferred illuminant for many light
houses.
A lens frequently is built up Of
glass prisms arranged in panels. the
object being to concentrate the light
into q beam Of maximum brilliancy
and range. Some lighthouse lenses
are so arranged as to revolve. a con-
irivance of the sort, weighing perhaps
5000 pounds, being hoated upon mer-
curry and thereby turned SO easily that

Like OIdtime Sea Story.

A tale Of piracy, with an oldtime
flavor, comes from the Orient. Between
1ongkong and Macao, the captain Of
an oil junk was surprised to observe
seven men, armed to the teeth. stand
ing in an open boat alongside. -Four
of them had rifles, two had two revOl-
vers each, and the seventh had q re-
volver and a dagger. As the captain
refused to surrender his vessel when
called upon to do SO, the pirates fired
into the air in order to intimidate him.
This had the~Eesired effect, for the
junk was stopped and the pirates
clambered aboard. They overpowered
the crew and steered the ship for an
island where another vessel was an
chored. They transferred the cargo to
it, took everything they could remove
and then liberated the imprisoned crew
and let them sail away in their empty
junk. The pirates kidnapped two Of the
crew, evidently being short Of men.

Three Witches Of eelvolr.

Here are their names: Anne Ba-
ker, Jeane Willimott Ellen Greene.
And, above all, here is the name Of
their cat, "Rutterkin." For by means
of Rutterkin they entered, said they,
into communion with familiar spirits.
These three witches, who lived In
1913, were the confidential servants Of
the earl of Rutland. at Belvoir castle,
England. They had a grudge-today
we should say "grouch"-against the
earl and determined upon revenge.
They managed to pluck hair from
the head Of q member Of the family,
and they burned it for Ill luck. They
securely made off with the glove Of
the earl and rubbed it on the back Of
Rutterkin to call down bodily harm
on the gloves owner. They were be-
lieved to have accomplished the death
of the earl's son, through frightening
the boy, and they were tried at Lin
coin, condemned, and burned at the
stake for the crime Of "witcheraft."
At that era the question Of witch
craft" was stalking through the world.

Now, the channel was rough. The
vessel rolled and pitched violently.
The captain saw that the ship was list
ing to port, and suspecting that the
cargo was shifting, sent a boatswain
below to Investigate. As the boat
swain entered the hold he saw that
several cases Of mineral water had
broken and that the water was swish
ing about in the hold. Then suddenly
he saw one Of the wooden cases
marked sodium burst into flame,
Immediately he gave the alaf1:f and
the crew rushed to their fire stations.
The captain directed the men to turn
the hose into the hold. As the first
stream Of water struck the burning
case there were several explosions as
package after package within the case
caught fire. BY this time two other
cases OF sodium had broken open, and
their contents, as they came in con-
tact with the water from the hose.

The crew could not believe their
eyes. The more water they poured on
the fire, the more intense grew the
conformation. Then suddenly two
cases flew into the air. crashed against
the overhead beams and spread out In
sheets of fire, the smaller pieces drop
ping back only to bounce and dance
about, huge balls Of flame in the half
swamped hold.
The superstitious crew was fast be-
coming unmanageable, and the captain
saw that in any case he must abandon
the ship. He ordered the crew to the
boats not a moment too soon. for as
the boats rowed away from the blazing
hulk several loud explosions came from
the hold. Then there was one mighty
detonation; the freighter broke in two
and plunged out Of sight.
