for Saxtons River-s1oo for Rural.

Bellows Falls, Feb. l0.-An agree
ment has been reached between the
school board and the teachers of the
town of Rockingham on an increase in
salaries for the year ending July /,
1920. 1t comprises bonus OF $500 for

those in Ssxtons River, and 500 for
those in the rural schools.
The school board estimates that this
increase will aggregate between 81 800
and $4,000. Whether or not the in
crease is paid depends upon the size of
the school tax voted at the annual

Tropical Waters Like Sea of Fire.

On still nights in tropical waters the
sea oftentimes is Illuminated as if by
fires of it's own Every breaking wave
crest looks like a fame. An oar dis
turbing the surface seems to dip into
molten metal Swimming fishes leave
wakes of brilliant brightness
The phenomenon is due to the pres
ence in the water of innumerable null
ttudes of minute animals, each of
which holds up its tiny torch, so to
speak, to contribute to the illumina-
ton.
Marine creatures of many tribes -
crustaceans, jelly fishes, cephalopods,
fishes of various species, etc. carry
lights Some fishes have luminous
disks on their heads; others have u-
minous spots along their sides, and yet
others are covered with luminous
slime.
The angler" fish has a regular torch
for a back fin, enabling 1t to see while
looking out for victims which its light
is expected To attract. Another finny
species, found only at great depths,
carries on the end of It's nose what
looks like an electric light bulb, and
which serves an equivalent purpose.
1t is in the depths Of the ocean that
the really remarkable light bearing
fishes dwell. Theirs is a realm of inky
darkness, into which no ray of daylight
penetrates Ii they are to have light,
thew must furnish it themselves; and,
to catch every possible giimmer, most
of them are provided with huge eyes.
Most remarkable in this respect of
all known deep sea fishes is the "argy
ropelicus,' which carries a couple of
dozen lanterns OF large size -one on
each side. in front of the eye, and the
others along the belly in a double row.
These are veritable bulls-eye lamps,
each of them with double convex lens
of crysta clear substance and retiec-
tor behind.
The light is emitted by a mass of
cells in the rear part, while the purpose
Of a reflector is served by lustrous
sheet of white fibrous tissue. Each
lantern has muscular arrangement for
turning it this way or that. and is con
nected by a nerve (entering at the
back with the central nervous system,
bv which its mechanism is maniiestly
controlled. Thus in all likelihood the
fish is able to turn its lights on or out
at will.
Another species has on each side OF
its head a double lamp, with refectors,
the two pointing different wsys.-Phil-
adelphia Ledger.

Poetry and Mathematics.

A celebrated mathematician despised
poets and poetry A brother professor,
anxious TO convert him from this I'M
fortunate dislike, handed him volume
of Tennyson. open at the "Charge Of
the Light Brigade"
The mathematician took the book
and began to read aloud, thus:
Half league. half league, half a
league"
then he banged the book down. ex-
claiming impatiently: well, if the
fool meant a league and half why in
thunder didn't he say soi"-Boston
