Humidity.

Humidity is the moisture or aqueous vapor in the atmosphere The vapor is really an invisible gas. When this vapor becomes visible 1t is called dew, fog, mist, haze, clouds. rain. snow. hall, etc, according to the size of the drops of water or the method by which the. yapOr condenses. A given space at a given temperature can contain only a definite amount of moisture. When a given space contains all of tho mois-. ture it is capable of holding iris said to be saturated. The percentage of moisture in the air to what it would hold If saturated Is called the relative. humidity. When the air Is saturated with moisture the humidity would be. 100 per cent, and If half saturated 50 per cent. three-quarter saturated 75. per cent. The increased humidity has. much to do with the effect Of the tenn perature on the individual, which js the reason the subject Is so commonly discussed during hot periods.

Responsibilities.

Thinking of others does not excuse folks from respecting their own rs- responsibilities. The world wouldn't get along very fast if all our time and thoughts were given to others. To get along and have the means to be help ful to others we must do considerable for ourselves. Our jo0 must bring enough returns to the boss to pay him for the trouble of bothering with us. Our home life touches others and we must see to 1t that our contact leaves them happier for the touch. Fife is more than mere routine however much it may seem to be cast In one piece mold. It's our thoughts for others that lift us out of the humdrum and make life worth living. There's no limit to the enthusiasms of fife when concern for another's welfare gets hold of you.

MORE PEOPLE READ BOOKS
According to English Authsr7fy, This is One of the Results of
 the War.

There are five times as many peo-
 pie in England reading books as there
 were before the war, according to Sir Ernest Williams. one of the foremost publishers of London. He says war has taught the people there the value of books, and shown them the joy of reading. When air raids were numer- siIs and all social activities stopped, there still remained the inner room, tha light and books. There was quick demand developed for light reading, but 1t has changed and grown % that now the best books are most in demand. When air raids were ended and lights and social activities were used again. the habit of reading was continued and has grown rapidly the past year.
 There Is an insistent demand, this publisher says, for books that deal with real life. It is his belief that out of the experiences of war has been born deeper appreciation of life and understanding of how tremendous ly worth living It is. On this new con- sciousness he bases the demand for books that deal sincerely with prob lens of llfe.-Ohio State Journal.

ISLAND SAVED BY WOMEN
How the Female Population ef HsIoal land Upset caIcuIstIons sf
 Danish Admiral.

Heigoiand, the naval wall flower during the World war had it's fate decided. upon one memorable occasion, by the women of the island, according to bulletin of the National Geograph- ic society. About the time William Penn was settling Pennsylvania . Danish admiral captured the islands fishermen one night while they were placing their nets. He threatened to hold them as hostages until tho island surrendered to Denmark Wives, mothers and sisters arose and forced the Danish garrison to re linquish any claim upon Helgeland.
 In the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries Helgelsnd was a center. Of the North sea herring fisheries. Then herring veered back to Scotland's coast and the islanders handed down . tale of the impiety by which they forfeited the boon. Until a few years ago horses were unknown to- the is- land. One story has it that when an old woman saw an Englishman ride up the hills she dropped dead from the shock of what she believed was supernatural creature.

Chicago, Aug. 19-Harold Lokes, one of Illinois eight delegates at large to the Republican national con- vention that nominated Senator Hard ing, tonight announced he would sup port Governor James M. Cox, Demo- cratic nominee, for the presidency.

 ''I shall continue to affiliate with the Republican party" Mir.

VETOED CASH BONUS
Arkansas American Legion Took Ac-
 ton at Helena Meet.

Little Rock, Aug. 20.-Adjutant Generad Henry F. Fredeman has re- turned from the State Convention of the American. Legion at Helena en- thusiastic in his praise of the hospi- tality received by them and of the work done by the Legion. He says that everything in the city except the iail was wide open to the visitors. Books of tickets were furnished to them admitting the holders to all at fractions in the city.
 There were about one thousand delegates, alternates and visitors at the meeting. The cash bonus pro position was overwhelmingly vetoed by the Legion, the vote being 104 against it, 97 for it. The convention went on record however. as being in favor of the alternate plan of loan, re-education or land settlement. It is said that the Arkansas Depart ment is the only one that has repudi- ated the action of the National Or ganization in it's support of the cash bonus plan.

LARGE SAVING TO FARMERS
 EFFECTED BY CO-OPERATiVES
CBy International News serviceD

NDY ~ 70 ~~A t~-~-f
 Washington, Aug. 23.-Co-operal tive farmers associations in the northern and western states, whose organization was promoted by county agents, last year effected a saving to the members of S5,434,000, according to reports made to the states Rela- tions Service, United States Depart ment of Agriculture. The governing principle in all activities on the part of county agents sharing in cooper ative movements has been not to act as the direct business agent of the farmer or an organized group, but to assist farmers in determining what form of local oranization is desirable The county agent also helps guard and to secure expert assistance, when when available, in organization meth ods. County agent also helps guard the community against over-organi- zation and whenever practicable ad- vocates the use of existing agencies. The cooperative associations which the county agents have helped form have had to do both with production and distribution and include cooper atiye grain elevators, creameries and livestock selling associations.

FIND TRUCKS GREAT HELP
 IN WORKING PUBLIC ROADS
IR. c. Smith of Cove District Soon Will Finish Grading 43 Miles
 Cost Is Low.

R. c. Smith, road overseer in the district around Cove, was in Mens Wednesday, accompanied by his two sons, Tom and John.
 Overseer Smith has 45 miles of road in his district. and within about two weeks will have finished grading every foot of it, and lot better than it ever was done before. and at very much less cost And here's how it all came about;
 Some weeks ago Judge H. w. Fin ger, having seen splendid work done by Overseer R. l.. Bell at Vandervoort by the use of one of the Quad trucks Judge Finger had secured from the government thru the state highway department, offered the second of the trucks to Mir. Smith. Mir. Smith ac- cepted and gave it a trial, and says he IS very sure this truck, operated by him with one man on grader at an average cost for labor and fuel of $14.15 per day, will do fully as much as could be done by five teams ofsthe very best mules at more than double the cost.
 Overseer Smith says he will use the Quad as motive power on all but 3 miles of the road in his district this being so rough he thinks best to handle it with teams.
 While Judge Finger was in Little Rock recently he secured for Polk county another of these trucks, to- gether with other useful equipment ali Of which has now arrived here, and l it is the desire of the judge that all should be used to the best advantage by the various road districts.

M. FOCH HAS TROUBLE;
 CAN'T RENT A RESIDENCE
(By International News Service, ,


 Paris, Aug, 25.--Marshal Foch is having the hardest time of his life finding an apartment in Paris after giving up his former home in the Avenue de Sake. For it seems that not single apartment house owner wants to rent to such a distinguished man.
 Dozens of owners have refused to rent to the marshall" said real es- tate agent. "They complain that he would be receiving visitors turnout the day and night; that the front of the building would be blocked by automobiles and that police would be everywhere to protect him, embarras- ing their other renters.s
 Lord Northcliffe is reported to have proposed opening a public subscrip- tion in London to purchase home for Foch, but the marshal himself vetoed the scheme. Marshal Joffre found the same trouble early in the war, and 1t was six months before real estate men found suitable apartment.

STOLEN PROPERTY FOUND.
Rifles Taken From Goss Store Have
 Been Recovered.

Two Winchester rifles and some flashlights stolen from the Goss hard ware store last March, were recovered Saturday following some clever detec- tive work by Constable D. A. Hazel. Young Brick Busch, who is said to have confessed complicity in the rob bery of the store, was held by Jus tice $. H. Smith to answer to the ju- venile court. One of the missing rifles was found at the home of George Deel, whose wife is now held at the county jail in connection with the mysterious death of her daughter some weeks ago. Following a clue received Constable Hazel also search ed the premises of MT and Mrs. Bar hard, who lives near the Deel home west of the city. Mrs. Barnard is the mother of young Busch, and was away from home at the time of the search. Upon her return she was informed by neighbors that a search had been made, and she immediately questioned her son if he knew anything of the missing rifle, and he confessed to her the hiding place. Mrs. Barnard found titS fhie anu brought lC to SneTlu Thornton. The rife had been wrapped in newspapers and had not suffered from it's burial. According to the report made the officers, the Deel boy, who is now serving a term in. the state reformatory, was the in- stigator of the robbery, and let the Busch boy share in the loot, his moth- err being unaware of the stolen prop i ertyy being hidden at their home. The Busch lad was brought to Mena Mon day by. his mother and given an ex- animation in court.
