CLEANED FROM FOREIGN
 EXCHANGES.

The fine bells of Epson Parish Church are to be recast and placed in a wrought steel frame at a cost of 6 1,0G0. i This practice-which is growing-of placing bells in steel cages only dates from about the eighties. It has many opponents. Bell founders-and these are not many in number-seem to be divided in opinion. Campanologists, one be- lieves, are more often, than not op- posed, as they think that bells hung in steel frames. in place of oak, lose in sweetness of tone Architects, again, discuss the matter from the point of view of the stress on the tower. Quite a pretty problem.
 The Price of Bread-The probable increase in the Alb. loaf as result of the decreaseS subsidy is variously stated the estimates ranging from 2d to Sd. Surely it ought to be prob lem capable of a. definite, solution. The increase in the price of sack of flour will be 19s. 3d., and sack of flour will make 96 ID. }oaves.
 From these data it is, easily calcu- lated that the increase in the cost of the lb. loaf will be a fraction under 2 1-2 q.
 The Submarine TeIeseope-The in strument used by he police in search ing for the green bicycle concerned in prominent case is by no means a new invention. and is certainly not a periscope, as it has ben described.

It brings submerged objects in to surprisingly clear view, and is used a great deal by pearl-fishers in the South Seas. In those clear waters il 1 is possible with the aid of this in- strument, to view the sea-bed at g considerable depth.

MEDICAL CANDIDATES
LACKING FOR NAVY

Opportunity for temporary and re-
serve medical officers of the navy to
obtain permanent appointments in the
Medical Corps apparently is not PROV
ing as attractive as was expected and
as desirable in view of the 600 vacan-
cies that now exist in the corps. So
far only lis reservists on active duty
and 16 on inactive duty have signified
their intentio nof taking the qualify
ing examination.
II was hoped that il would be pos
sible TO obtain about 800 candidates
from among tho temporary and re-
serve classes. which would afford a
reasonable prospect of filling some
where near one-half OF the vacancies,
but the present indications are far
from any such desirable result.
In the meantime, an examination is
in progress at the Naval Medical of
candidates from civil life for appoint
iaent to the Medical Corps, from
which class only eight have qualified
in examinations since the armistice.

PLAN SCHOOL ON sHIPBoARD
SoeIaIistic Council Of Bradford, Eng
land, Is Considering the Adoption
of Remarkable Scheme.

When II became necessary to erect
new secondary school in Bradford,
the rich wool textile center of Eng
land, the usual estimates were asked
for. and reported, in the total sum OF
S500OO0.
Socialists, who have considerable
majority on the Bradford education
committee, at once decided to break
free from tradition. and adopted the
idea of buying suitable seagoing ship
for that amount. one big. enough for
couple of hundred children. These
children will be sent to sea for six
months or 12-months period, ii sub
sequent suggestion is adopted:
1t is still to be settRd whether the
ship schoolhouse will remain moored
in Bradford canal docks, only going TO
sea as freighter during vacation pc
RODS. or whether it would not be in
the interests of general education to
let the scholars see glimpses of for
eign ports. learning their languages
among natives, the ship at the same
time being loaded with cargoes that
would pay full maintenance expenses
probably even of the boarding OF the
children.

SOME OBSTACLES
TO THE DIRIGIBLES

Some obstacles have been encoun-
tered by the navy in establishing a
station for rigid dirigibles on the Pa
ciiic Coast. 1t is desired to place an
immense dirigible hangar on North
Island, at san Diego, Calf. which is
occupied by Rockwell field of the
army.
At first the army air service indi-
Gated that it had no objection to ioca-
ton of the hangar at that place Late
ly, however, the navy has been in
formed that, in Wow of the fact that
Rockwell field is being used as an air
craft gunnery school, il will not be
practicable TO have the navy occupy
part OF the island as dirigible sta
ton
Southern California is considered to
be the preferable place fer the navy's
dirigible station on the Pacific Coast,
in view of the advantageous weather
conditions, and from tactical stand
point San Diego is considered to be
the logical location.
The matter now is under cOnsidora-
ton by the aeronautical board, and
possibly ii will reach the joint army
and navy board before settlement is
reached.

MUST KNOW DIAMONDS GRAIN
Point of Cleavage Has to Be Deter.
mined Before Cutter Begins
Work on Stone.

In the diamond there IS a "grain"
I'm the rough stone, which grain is
parallel TO any of the triangular faces
of the octahedral crystal. The stones
in the rough are examined for perfec-
ton and assorted for sizes. The larg-
est stones are given very close inspec-
ton for flaws and carbon spots. When
these are found it may be desirable TO
split the stone into several smaller
pieces, to eliminate the flaws and to
secure stones of more marketable size.
1t behooves an individual known as a
"cleaver'' to know thoroughly the grain
of the diamond In the rough. Some
times days are taken TO decide on its
cleavage in. order to get the largest
and best results-a mark is placed up
on the diamond with pen and ink, a
tiny groove is ground into it and the
stone mounted on the end of holder
with the sharp edge of another dia-
mond. A knife about six inches by
one inch high is now inserted into the
groove or on top of the line, and with
a quick blow the diamond separates
easily along its grain.-Electrical Elk.

Auto Worked Change.

He used to be a pretty easy-going
fellow before he bought his machine.
Some days his name would decorate
the spare board at the car barn and
some days it wouldn't, for he and work
were not firm friends.
But now how different. He contract
ed the automobile fever. The machine
was the result. Now, buying an auto
is easy. But keeping it running and
taking your girl out is another thing.
That requires coin of the realm.

Bugs That Birds Eat.

According to a paper on behalf of
bird protection published by the State
Horticultural society of Kansas the
bird population of that state is $780,
100000, which every year eat enough
insects to fill $50 trains of so box cars
each-24.000 cars of a minimum
weight of 24.0o0 pounds to the car.
These insect trains would be long
enough TO reach from Oklahoma to Ne
braska. Reduced TO pounds. Blair fig
ures that the birds of Kansas every
year eat 5T6000.000 pounds of insects.
It is hard to conceive the dollars and
cents value of the insect-eating birds

When, famished. I came from my
much-hated schooling
And sat down to dinner with Harry
and Bill.
A great plate OF meat-duck or tur-
key in season
Corn. turnips, asparagus. peaches
galore,
With three or four pies-there was
no earthly reason
To stop except stomachs that would
not hold more
All came from the basket. the brown
wicker basket,
The old market basket that father
once bore.
Eggs then cost a tritie-esch fresh as
a daisy,
No hated cold storage was known,
by the way.
And every one then would have
thought you were crazy
To ask for nut butter" as folks
do today.
Twelve cents for a pound OF GOOD
pork or of scrapple,
A little bit higher for chops at the
store,
Twas kept in the village by Marvin
and Chapple.
And no one delivered things then
at the door
They came in the basket, the brown
wicker basket,
The old market basket that father
once bore.
How oft in the present when worried
and haTried
] think with a sigh of those days of
delight.
And picture the basket that father
then carried
And brought home filled up to sthe
brim every night.
How fresh were the contents, as frag-
rant as honey,
The prices. all told, made a laugh
able score.
How eagerly. gladly I'd PUNK down
my money
For three times their cost. at that
time, even four,

AFFECTS EXCHANGE IN INDIA
Brokers and Currency Dealers Find
Business Greatly Influenced BY
the Marriage Season.

Among the Influences which affect
the currency of a country. probably
none but experts In exchange would
be inclined 10 include marrying and
giving In marriage. says the Detroit
Free Press.
Yet II is a fact that the Indian mar
rage season. which comes in May. does
actually have an adverse effect on the
rate OF exchange in India, Just as the
exports of wheat and grain from India
form another seasonal influence which
turns exchange in favor of India.
Custom In India dictates that the
bridegroom. or his father. should give
COLE and silver ornaments 10 the BRIDE
at the time of the marriage. These
ornaments are called ''Stree-dhau," and
they represent, in reality, a marriage
settlement. They are the weman's alb
solIIte property, and she naturally pre-
serves them with great care.
AT the marriage time a great to
masha." or feast. is given TO the imme-
date relatives and followers of the
two families, and this. of course, neces-
states lavish expenditure of silver.
Bankers. brokers and Eastern ex-
change dealers have found by expert
ence that the coming of the marriage
season in India is heralded by a de-
mand for a vast amount of silver cur
rency. 'and they accordingly take steps
in advance to enable them to meet 1t.

Nut Butter Is Wholesome.

Cocoa butter, as nut butter is called
in England. was not accepted with en-
thusiasm by the British public when
natural butter became scarce during
the war. so the food committee of the
Royal society made some elaborate
tests of its effects on human beings.
The New York Medical Journal sum-
marizes the results, which show that
slightly less of the fat of cocoa butter
than of that of real butter is utilized
by the body; 1t causes no digestive
troubles; when consumed in large
quantities it has slightly laxative eff
feet, and in general 1t is a safe and
wholesome food.
