The teacher in little rural Hoo- sier school had a great amount of trouble with the older boys fighting at recess time. She appealed to the county superintendent for aid in stopping it and he, being an advo- cate of supervised play, told her to play with the children at recess pe- riods. She followed his suggestion for several recesses-with the result that the fighting was forgotten in the playing. Then came one recess at which she was busy coaching a backward pupil. The recess was about half over when youngster about seven years old rushed into the room. Cant you come out here and start something?" he asked.

FIFTEEN SACKS OF
 STUDS GO OVERBOARD
Salvage Machinery Is Quick ly Put Into Operation and Precious Food Nuggets Are Recovered.

What might have been a most serious calamity occurred last week at the local wharf when the cargo of a steamer was being unloaded. Fifteen sacks of spuds were in the sling when one corner of the net broke loose and the entire fifteen sacks were dumped into the bay.
 Had this accident occurred in years gone by the steamship company would no doubt have stood the loss without making any effort to recover the spuds. But we are now living in an age when spuds are spuds, and even a rich steamship company shud- ders at the thought of facing an irate consignee with a claim for lost spuds. Accordingly the sal wage machinery was quickly put into operation and in less than an hour the entire fifteen sacks had been fshed up from the bot tom of the bay. The sacks were opened and the spuds spread out on the wharf to dry. Bobby Burns" a Wrangell citizen of many years residence, whose in- tegrity ranks with his poetry, was intrusted with the high res possibility of guarding the pre- cious food nuggets during the drying process.

DEPICTED NATURE AS HARSH
Englieh Philosophers Theory Would Account for Devastating Wars
 and Pestilences.

The economic doctrine that the natural tendency of population is to increase faster than the means of subsistence was set.f0rth in sys- tematic form by an Englishman named Malthus. He crystallized the views of the ancient Greek philoso- phers, Plato and Aristotle, the Eng fish historian Hume, and the Amer ican politician Franklin, and pre- sented them in systematic form with elaborate proofs derived from his- tory.
 Malthus was born on February IA, 1766, near Dorking, in Surrey, England, where his father owned a small estate. He distinguished him. self at Cambridge university, and became a Church of England cler- gyman in his native county. In 179S he brought out his Essay on the Principles of Population" and some years later he was appointed professor of political economy and modern history ill the East India company's college at Haileybury. He died at Bath on December 29, 1884.

PROPAGANDA FROM THE AIR
Japanese Society Uses Planes to Scat ter Leaflets Urging Improved
 Health Conditions.

The Japan Consumptive Preyen- tion association, or the Nihon Yek- kaku Yobo-kai, carried out all aerial propaganda last Sunday, and as Tokyo people were out in force seeing the sights, the printed mat ter whirling down from the sky was a startling method to awaken them to their social duties.
 Thousands of folks out for holi- day in Hibiya park, sitting qui- etly on the benches admiring the many-hued azaleas and listening to the distant sound of the military band playing for the amusement of the Sunday crowds, suddenly saw something falling through the air, and watched the arrival of propa- ganda leaflets with open-mouthed astonishment.
 One read as follows: "Consump- tion sputa are fireless explosives; :" another, "Long nails are den of the cursed disease" Still others read, "Where no sunlight enters the doctor enters," and "By watering lay the dust; by wind blow away the damp."-Far Eastern Bureau Bull letin.

A critic told at the Players club about Edgar Lee Masters, author of the Spoon River Anthology"
 "Masters and an English poe" " he said, "were discussing their work.
 My dear Edgar the English man drawled, your poetry doesn't lack fire and sincerity, but it's rough. It's so sketchy. Why do you never finish"
 "Masters gave a loud, discordant laugh.

 YEOMEN ROLL CAlI-The regu- lar semi monthly meeting of the Yeo- men last Thursday night was also the lodges annual roll-call meeting. In accord with a recent action of the national organization, the second meeting in January has been set aside for the purpose of calling the roll of the entire membership. The local roll call meeting, which was held in K. P. hall, was largely attended, and was so interesting as to make those who visit the lodge sessions infrequently feel well repaid for their having come that night. Many matters of importance were considered and acted upon, and there were several entertaining feat ures, including brief addresses by many members. Perhaps the most in teresting talk was that of Archer Charles Miller, whose administration of the office of state manager has. been notably successful. The annual roll call furnished him a theme for par ticularly inspiring address.
