How He Did It

One of the very substantial men of thriving town in the West is named Gary Mcintyre. One day, in conver- sation with number of soldiers from a military post nearby, he said:
 q understand you lads are going on hike. When you reach Snake River take good look at it. It's full of undercurrents and eddies. Boys, am the only living man who ever swan that river"
 Several days later the men crossed the Snake River on cable ferry. The ferryman chanced to inquire, quite casually, of waiting soldier:
 Do you know a man down in your country by the name of Gary McIn- tyre? They tell me he has accumu- lated a lot of money"
 q was talking to him only the other day" said the soldier. "He told me he swan the Snake River once."
 "That's right, he did," said the ferryman. He sure did; but we were all shooting at him. "-Philadel- phia Ledger

MINT
 LARGEST IN WORLD

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 19.-The Philadelphia mint turned out 5O1,- OOO,OOO coins in the last fiscal year.
 Raymond T. Baker, director of the United States Mint gave out the fig ures after inspecting the institution. New die-cutting machines, electric furnaces and carrying devices have been installed within the last year and efficiency. methods have been adopted which greatly increase the output of the. mint.
 The, increase last year was about 25 per cent over 1919. In 1916 a little over a million coins were pro duced.
 MT. Baker recently returned from the San Francisco mint, where he is preparing to install improved ma chinery similar to that in the Phila- delphia mint.
 "With the recent additions" said MT. Baker, "the Philadelphia mint is now not only the largest mint in this country, but manufactures a larger number of coins than any oth- CT mint in the world"

FAIRGROUNDS OF WEST" TO BE UNITED. BY NATIONAL PARK TO PARK HIGHWAY.

jewels of the rarest beauty.
 "The official park -to-p park tour ded- icating this remarkable route to the park traveller, is an event of inspiring interest, for he can in one complete tour experience variations in climate ranging from the frigid to the tropi- cal, and oftimes in one park"
 There will be convention, at Den yer, possibly in November, at which time the National Park-to- Park High way Association will begin actively the consolidation of a road program that will eventually bring permanent improvement of the connecting park highway, which encircles an area equal to that of twenty European countries. All western states will be represented in this gathering, which will appeal to Congress for aid in hard -surfacing the highway.
 The motor vehicles has firmly es- tablished its position as part or the country's transportation system, the motor production schedule increasing from 175,000 cars in 1910 to 100000 in 1920. This growth is responsible, in part, to the country's newest busi- ness enterprise which deals in econ- omy in travel thru definitely outiin. ed connecting park highway, and greater accessibility in reaching the national parks for the thousands of travellers who have been made joint tenants by far-seeing Congress.

The doctors family had just mov- ed into a more exclusive residence district and all the members were given to boasting over this. Even the nine-year-daughter told of it to her small playmates at school. "Why, it's just like having a title," she end ed. Everything that comes to our place has written on it after. our names, 'Collett Place."
 Another little nine-year-old sniffed very disdainfully. "Oh, if that is what you mean, we've got one too," she informed the audience, "and it's almost like your'n. Right after our name on everything that cofes to our house, they write, Collect, please. "- Indianapolis News.
