FURRY CREATED

WOMEN DELEGATES
Rumor Says Alternates Will
Not be Permitted TO Vote

BY LOUIS ludlow.

CHICAGO. Ill. .uSe 3.-A furry

who are working I'm various presi-
dental camps here by a rumor that
women alternates in the national
convention will not be permitted 10
vote in the absence OF their male

became nOised about.

along sex lines the male managers

ayers that the women alternates will
have all tho rights and privileges in
the convention that are usually aC-

The scare arose from the fact that
129 women have been elected as al
ternates 70 the convention. In nearly
all OF these cases the principals are
men. AS long as the principals are
in their seats the alternates have
neither vote nor voice in the cOnven-

whenever n principal is absent for
any reason whatever the alternate
automatically takes his place and is
privileged 20 exercise all the rights

HoNORED AS GREAT TEACHER
Works of Euclid, Ancient Mathemati.
clan, the Foundation of the
Science of Geometry.


Euclid was an ancient mathemati-
clan, who is said by some to have
hourished in the third Gentry before
the Christian era. 1t is generally
held that he was Greek, but the date
and place of his birth are unknown.
1t is generally held that much of his
work was done at Alexandria, Egypt.
which in those ancient times was a
famous seat of learning and the cen
ter of extensive commerce. The most
famous work of Euclid that has come
down TO us is TIE Elements of Geom-
etry in 13 books. The first six are the
most valuable. They contain the
foundation of geometry. on which is
based several branches of higher
mathematics. These books are still
used in schools and colleges. The
next three books deal with the prop
critics of numbers but they are super
seeded by modern arithmetic. Euclid
also left other FORKS. such as treatises
on harmony and optics.

Far-Reachlna Result Of Explosion at

The strictest precautions are neces-

mines of South Africa. The need of
such stringency was emphasized by
an explosion that wrecked a dozen

sumed the management or the he
Beers company. In his book. THE

THE shock was felt from Dutoitspan
to the farthest limits of the west end
Of the camps. and terror-stricken peo-
pie rushed out of their houses TO see
vast heaving cloud of smoke rising
hundreds of feet into the sky.
The magazines were dashed to
pieces, as the Kimberley papers re-
ported. by he terrible power Of the
explosives. In most instances the gal
vanized iron was broken into tny
atoms as If by myriad hammers. and
cartridges were scattered far and

, volleys or in scattering blasts for
many minutes after the explosion. one
large stone was thrown as far as the

True Efficiency.

Efficiency is a matter of the head
as well as the hands. 1t can never be
a purely mechanical virtue, for true
efficiency has its origin in careful
thought The man who forms the
habit of using his brain is never in
danger of becoming mere machine.
