Another Statue.

With the unwilling of the figure OF
Gen. William Shepherd In the commu-
nifty of Westfield, Mass, worthy fig
ure is added to the American popula-
ton Of revolutionary heroes whose
memory is perpetuated by public
statue. General Shepherd, before the
Revolution, had taken part in the "Old
French war" which justified Macau-
lay in saying that because Frederick
the Great had decided to rob neigh
Dor, fred men scalped each other by
the great lakes of North America" He
began as a private soldier and rose
to the rank of lieutenant colonel under
Washington, and later commanded a
brigade under Lafayette. individuals
have sometimes questioned the utility
of public statues; yet In this case, as
In many another, the statue defeats
the common forgetfulness of past
deeds that has found expression in the
old saying, "Out Of sight out of mind"

A little friend of mine who lives
next door has been teasing his mother
for a puppy. Knowing the destructive
habits of such animals, she has firmly
refused to let him have one. At last
he persuaded her to let him borrow
one for half a day to show her that
a puppy knew enough to properly be-
have himself. Being varied that he
must watch the puppy every minute
IL was in the house, the little chap
for a time was careful to keep his eye
on 1t; but, finally firing of such vigil
lance, he relaxed his attention only to
give the puppy the chance it had been
waiting for. 1t improved it to the full

cherished Christmas toys. This was
too much for the young host. Good
night" he exclaimed, mo more pups

GOOD EXERCISE is MOTORING
Physician Seems to Have Made Out a
Good Case for His Side of
Argument.

DR.. Henry Williams, in an article
in Motors, combats the theory that
motoring is reducing our opportunities
for exercise He says its benefits are
hreefold-physical. mental and vO-
litional. The buffeting of winds and
the inhalation OF large quantities of
oxygen stimulate digestion, assimlla-
ton and excretion. This is true Of
the person who merely sits, as well
as Of him who drives. The latter, how
ever, benefits directly Doctor VIII
liams says: "When you drive a car
40 or so miles over average American
roads, or a fraction Of that distance
In any city, you give your arms and
torso a course of purposeful callsthen-
les that rebounds directly to the bene-
fit of your muscles and arteries and
heart, and indirectly but no less sig
nlficantly, to the benefit of your diges-
tive organs of elimination as well as
the nervous system"

Navy Mems Pay Increased.

That the increased pay for the
Navy men which was made effec-
tive through the bill signed re-
Gently by the President, will assist
materially in relieving the present
shortage of personnel in the Navy,
is the opinion of Comdr. H. Ertz,
Navy recruiting officer for the
Wisconsin Michigan district.
The government guarantee of
high wages to Navy men for the
next two years, no matter what
trend civilian wages may take, will
draw many men into the service"
declared Comdr. Ertz. In the
present unstable condition, the
certainty of we'll being for the next
two years will undoubtedly make a
strong appeal. !"
Pay of enlisted men in the Navy
is fixed as follows:
Chief Petty Officers, Acting APP
pointment, $4,000.
Chief Petty Officers, Permanent
Appointment, $4,000
Petty Officers, First class, S84.
Petty Officers, Second class,
$500
Petty Officers, Third class 500 90
Non Rated Men. First class S54.
Non Rated Men, Second class,
S48 90
Non Rated Men, Third class. $33
Enlisted men in the Navy receive
this pay IN addition to board, lodg-
ing, medical attendance, free am
easements and schooling. The vari-
Gus gratuities such as Citizenship
Money" Continuous Service
Money" etc, are also added to his
monthly check.
A Naval Reservist may transfer
to the regular Navy for the un-
expired portion of his enrolment,
providing he has at least one year
TO do, and he will receive four
months Shipping Over Pay"
At the time of his transfer TO the
Navy he will be granted one
month s leave of absence on full
pay, making FIVE months pay re-
ceived before he actually goes on
active duty.
A man who holds an Honorable
Discharge from the regular Navy
comes in for all the benefits OF
continuous service, even though
he has been out of the service one

FREIGHT CAR BROKE AWAY
Peculiar Happening Hailed as Some
thing Particularly Ne" IN HIS
tory of Railroading.

The Erie railroad has demonstrated
the practicabllity of theory that
freight train may lose a car from its
midst and keep to its schedule with
its crew in ignorance of their loss. ana
Ed Mott, of Goshen. the local histo-
rian. is happy.
For a generation Mott has been tell
ing folks Of an Erie train that left Sus-
ouehanna in the winter of 1855 with 10
cars of cattle. At Port Jervis one car
was missing. 1t had disappeared from
the middle of the train without leav-
ing broken couplings or other traces
of the manner of its ejectment Two
DAYS later the missing car was found
In a field near the track at Shohola.
1t was empty. The cattle 1t had held
were recovered In Sullivan county,
New York. They had freed themselves
from the car and crossed the Delaware
river on the ice.
Engineer Albert o. Roberts was
driving a train to New York last Sun
day morning. At West Tuxedo air
brake trouble led to the discovery that
the fourteenth car was missing. The
thirteenth and fifteenth cars had re-
coupled themselves. Search led TO the
discovery of the missing car alongside
the track mile to the north.
The accident of Sunday was exactly
the same as the one which Mott de-
scribes as of sixty-odd years ago, ex-
cept that the modern form of brake
caused the loss of a car to be discov-
cred more quickly than was the case
in the old days, when the couplings
were of simple design and the brakes
were operated by hand.-New Haven
