GERMANY SAYS1ALL
SHOULD STAY HOME

Berlin, Aug. 8 (byfFranz Lehnhof,
by maiD The German government
and especially the emigration office
are opponents of emigration.
They are convinced that such per-
sons as desire to}emigrate are just
the people Germany ought to retain
al home to help rebuild the nation.
The prospective s.''.Auswanderer" are,
among: .Germany's, most industrious
folk for the most part they are Abor-
ers and craftsmen. And, forAthe
craftsman there is work at home so.
soon as raw materials are at hand.
As for the laborer, lis neededin the
fields and the factories, say the gov
erriment people. 'tSSt;4,s Sf;xs ~:
The imperial tg0yernment was an
opponent of emigtAti1n, and had laws
to prevent, it. These were modified
so that, for instancesS Stemigrants could
go ITO the southern Brazilian states.
In this year, difficulties arose-as an
outgrowth of the Old systern@-when
Brazil made its offer to assist German
immigrants to&enteK% Brazil. (

A, reinforcement for the world de-
mand for lumber is preparing in Brit

tween 100000 and 100000 acres of
woodland to draw upon, and new in
dustry, very infantile at present. is ex-
pected to grow so rapidly thatsthe gov
ernment is now considering plans to
improve the harbor facilities for ex-
porting the forests. The best wood is
suitable for wheel makers and wagon
builders and the making of wood block
paving, railway sleepers, bridges, OK
yokes. and AK, pick and tool handles.
It also makes good flooring and lining
boards. The builder, however, must
needs be of q patient disposition if he
postpones building until these British
East African woods are available.
Meantime there are new sounds in
some of the African forests, }the
rhythm Of the woodsman'is AK, the buzz
of the sawmill, and the putting Of un-
dersized locomotives on the narrow
gauge tracks that are penetrating
from the main line of railway into the
woodlands. And many workman, no
doubt, will some day work with tools

SONGS THAT ARE IMMORTAL
Greatest Minds Of Al the Ages ee.
slowed Their Labors on the >
Poems Of Homer.

The Illiad and Odyssey were prob.
ably sung by Homer about century
and a half after the destruction Of
the town of Troy following the ten
years Of war that was waged In the
cause of Menelaus. king Of Lacede-
mon, whose consort had been carried
away by the son Of the Trojan mon-
arch. The two poems are as old as
David's psalms. Originally the nliad
would appear not to have been sim
gle connected poem, but to have at
tained at later period its present
complete state.
About one hundred years after Hon.
er, Lycurgus, the lawgiver or Lace"
demon, brought these poems into
Greece, and two centuries and half
later Pisistratus is supposed to have
given them their perfect form. His
son Hlpparcus introduced the custom
Of reciting rhapsodies at the Pana-
thenaia, or festival of the tutelar god
dess. A more complete edition of the
Homeric poems, from which the mod
ern ones are taken, was prepared for
Alexander the Great by Aristotle,
which the former used to keep under
his pillow in a golden case. Also
Aratus. the astronomer, Aristarchus Of
Samos, and Aristophanes, librarian at
Alexendria, bestowed their labor on
these immortal songs. Because of the
fine moral sentiment, Homer became
the pattern Of Thucydides, the favor
ite author of the greatest and noblest
men, and one of the best teachers of
the. wisdom Of human life.-Detroit

Enormous Sharks.

Sharks grow to a tremendous size.
Rondeletis shark, for instance, which
Is an inhabitant Of tropical seas, at
tains length Of 40 feet. The great
basking shark is even longer. A
young fish Of this species. brought to
England and set up, is II feet In
length. Full grown, this shark may
measure so feet and rival the whales
In girth and weight.
Saw-fish have been killed 30 feet In
length, and It is not for a moment to
be supposed that we have secured the
largest. The fact Is that the natural
history: Of the seas is still very largely
sealed book. and that surprises are
still in store for future generations.

Measuring Earth's circumference.

Measuring Earth's circumference.
Erastothenes, who lived between 275
and 1876 B. c., probably was the first
to measure the earth's circumference
and adopted the same method that il
employed at present. He found that
the distance between Syene and Alex
andria was one-fiftieth, Of a great cir
clc-about seven degrees ~13 ~minutss-
and on this basis computed the circum-
ference Of the earth to be $4,000

dium he used is not. known and t is
not possible to compute the degree

What a Prescription
Really Does For You

When you are "sick," that means that nature has
been unable to "carry on" she should. If nature
has sufficient reserves She will overcome any sick
ness. She will work hard to kill off germs, to
overcome waste of energy. +,
This tendency is what gives so-called mind cures
and other fakes their working ground, even tho
germ is actual visual fact under the microscope.
The prescription which doctor writes for you is
based upon knowledge of what has happened to
nature. The doctor knows from printed records
and from personal experience that grain Of this
or dram of that will do certain things to help
nature work again. -
After studying you yourself, he finds that perhaps
you may need little more of this, or less of that,
than ordinary. He finds what's wrong, where help
is needed-and knows which drug will bring assist
ance. = g -. ~, -
. Then we simply FOLLOW his orders exactly.

eXterminated.
In all this work Richmond doctors
and Richmond nurses had a part.
Whether they were working at home,
helping to hold down the spread of the
disease, or in some army hospital
where the soldiers were dying by the
score, they rendered service of
sterling importance.
Physical Examinations.
One of the most interesting phases
of the American military machine
which built up it's work so rapidly
that it ended the war six months
ahead of the scheduled time, was the
system of wholesale physical eXamin-
atoms which the soldiers were subject
ed to. Every soldier was given at
least two thorough inspections, one
upon entering the service, as an enlist
ed, drafted or indicted man, and one
when he was ready to go overseas.
The continuous production idea,
with each doctor specializing in his
work was the one put into effect in
this system. The service men were
inspected piecemeal as it were, pass
ing by number of physicians, station
ed around the sides of large room.
The first physician examined the
mans eyes, ears and throat; the sec
ond his heart. and lungs; the third
Joints, and so on in until the process
was complete. Physical. defects that

ers had to be slight ones indeed
