Windmill Generates Electricity.

The windmill has not been general
ly found available for the generation
Of electricity because of the irregular
ity of the air currents, but this has
been overcome by Swedish inventor.
Instead of being directly connected
to the dynamo in the usual manner,
the mlll-wheel shaft Is geared to n
holsting device, which serves to ele-
vate a two-ton weight to the top Of n
53-foot steel and wood tower. When
the weight reaches the maximum
height, It is released, and, as It falls,
actuates the dynamo, which is mount
ed on a bracket at the apex of the
tower with the mill wheel. A storage
battery and switchboard are housed in
the lower portion of the tower.

SERVED IN ORIENTAL STYLE
Magnificent Banquet Given by King
Hussein of the Hedjaz to
Lord AlIenby.

A banquet given by King Hussein
British high commissioner, as de-
scribed by an Arab correspondent of
the London Times on March 2, was a
striking example of oriental magnifi-
cence. After preliminary visits and
military reviews, in which the
Bedouin cavalry dashed by at full
speed, firing their rifles, the banquet
was held in true Arab style in the
municipality buildings at Jeddah.
On the table, which was eighteen
feet broad by thirty feet in length,
barefOoted walters dressed in rich Arab
costume walked about helping the
guests, 20 in number, to slices of the
joints of roasted half sheep stuffed
with almonds, rice and spices. Each
guest had three or four plates, and
was surrounded by some 20 or 80
dishes of salads, fish, roasted chick
ems, pilaff of mutton and sweets of
all descriptions. The kings band of
musicians played throughout the ban
quet.
AT the end of the feast the kings
servants handed round silver basins
with ewers of scented water for the
guests to wash their hands in. Coffee
was served in another room while
guests of lower degree sat down at
the banqueting table. The remnants

OUR ASSOCIATION NEWS

The Y. NJ. C. A. together with the
majority of the local churches have
just secured a first class Simplex
Moving Picture machine OF standard
grade, and suitable for out of door,
as well as indoor exhibitions to be
given in the near future. This is the
first step in the new plans and pur~
poses of the Churches and the .'Y''
to put across a definitely helpful edu
cational and moral program of the
first rank for the entire community.
The machine is costing $175. plus
the expressage of $15.95 and for this
amount, as well as for another hun
dred for the projecting of this Com
munity proposition the Ministers,
the "Y' Secretary together with sew
eral laymen will soon make q defi~
mite canvass for these funds need
ed. The exhibitions are to be free
to the general public at all times and
will be given on the Central school
and, after that, in the gymnasium of
the ''Y'' which will seat several hun.
dred people. Anyone feeling desir
Gus of sharing in this work can aid
greatly by leaving their money with
either of the ministers, or, in the
'Y" with the General Secretary.
The Committee hopes to get the vari-
Gus audiences together also between
film reels in some "pepy' commun-
lLy singing of popular and patriotic
songs. Watch for the first exhibition.
The "Y'' Board of Directors has
very fortunately secured the services
of Miss Broghild Olsby for director
of the Y. NJ. c. A. girls and women's
department Miss Olsby will be with
us the first of September to begin
the work and is expecting the most
hearty cooperation of the girls and
women of the Community, not only,
in the Club and social work, but also
in the physical work in the 5ymnas-
ium and on the play ground, She
has had several years of valued eX~
nerience and with the right help and
backing can lead in great work.

ia king steps to be in the foreground
in this work so necessary for the
town and county in the up-bui!ding
of our young people. Let's chuck the
slogan of the past, i. e. LET George
Do IT,, and all put our shoulders tc
the wheel. The ''Y'' belongs to the
entire Community and by your
hearty or luke-warm cooperation
YOU will either help to make it, or
to break it.
The rooms of the !'Y' are entirely

on the third floor recently named By
the Board as the "Keim Dormitory.'
The financial safety and soundness
of the ''Y'' work depends entirely
this month and next particularly on
the fifty-seyen people of Payette and
vicinity who still owe their pledges !
for this year and dated to be paiG
last December. These constituents
can aid fundamentally by paying
their amounts at once in the "Y" Of |

Politics AND sPECU-
LATION TO RLAMI

The shortage of sugar and high
prices have caused many unfounded
reports to be circulated as to the
cause.
Articles. cartoons and editorials
that have been published in the daily
press and ether publications in refer.
ence to sugar situation and alleged
cause OF sugar shortage have in
many instances been misleading and
create wrong public opinion
against candy and sugar industry.
The candy industry has been repre-.
sented as obtaining sugar while the
public was denied.
Present condition relative to su.
gar viii continue to a greater or Iesp
extent for several years to come. Pub
lication Of erroneous reports on the
situation have been in most instances
unintentional and due TO lack of in.
formation on the subject.
Walter c. Hughes, Sec. of the Ma,
tional Confectioners Association says
that in self-defense the candy indus,
try must acquaint the public with
the facts as to its usage of sugar and
the position it occupies as a legiti.
nate industry maintaining large pay.
lis and carrying its full share OF
Inc nations tax burden. Mr.. Hughes
places entire confidence in the public
and the press to do justice by any
industry If they know the truth of
the situation.
Mr.. Hughes states that the candy
industry has done all in its power
to save sugar and that statistics show
that of all candy produced, about Al
per cent is sugar and SO per cent
other materials such as chocolate,
fruits, nuts, corn syrup, molasses
cocoanut. gelatine, milk and other
food products.

Copenhagen.-A huge mob, esti-
mated at more than 10000, staged a
great demonstration in front of the
royal palace here, shouting Down
with the king!" Give us a republic!"
and sung the Marsei1laise. Police and
soldiers guarding the palace were I'M
able to cope with the mob.
The demonstrators were led by rad
ical workmen and Socialists, who
have been active in working for a re-
public since King Christian dismissed
the cabinet of Premier Zahle.
Members of the town council Joined
in the demonstration. Earlier in the
day they had memorialized the king,
urging formation of a cabinet salts.

King Christian was in conference
with his new ministry, headed by Otto
Liebe. It was admitted the situation
was grave.
The Danish king precipitated the
present crisis last Monday when he
dismissed the cabinet headed by Pre-
mier Zahle. The action was UMPIRE
cedented in modern Danish history,
and Socialists Immediately demanded
reinstatement of the ministry on
threat of a general strike.
King Christian refused and troops
were called into the city to guard
the royal palace.
Dismissal of the cabinet was attrib-
uted to it's failure to attain success
in the Danish-German plebiscite vot-
ing in the second zone. The zone
voted to remain German and the king
blamed his ministry.

claim a republic ever since the trouble

SIMS IS CRITICISED
BY ADMIRAL WILSON
DECLARES ADMIRAL BUNGLED IN
THE HANDLING OF FORCE
OF DEsTRoYERS.
FLETCHER IS SUPPORTED
Says Officer Removed BY Sims Had
insufficient Number of Vessels
For Convoy and Mileage
Was Wasted.

Washington.-Vice Admiral Sims
employment of American destroyer
forces in European waters during the
first year of this country's participa-
ton in the war was severely criticised
by Admiral Henry B. Wilson, COM
mander of the Atlantic fleet, in testi-
mony before the naval board investi-
eating Rear Admiral William B.
Fletcher's removal from the Brest
commanded by Admiral Sims.
Basing of all destroyers used in
conveying American troops and sup
ply transports into French ports on
Queenstown instead of Brest up to
the spring of 1918, Admiral Wilson
declared, meant that the destroyers
worked only one way" and wasted
mileage" in the long trip back to
Queenstown for refueling. If orig
inally based on Brest, he declared,
these destroyers could have worked
both ways conveying transports
out as well as into the French ports,
and thus made to render their maxi
mum service, as was demonstrated
some eight months later, he added,
when this plan was permitted.
Disagreeing with the testimony of
Capt Byron G. Long, Sims aide for
operations at London, who said Ad-
miral Fletcher's request that destroy
ers be based ON Brest was denied be
cause of a lack of oiIing facilities
there, Admiral Wilson declared that
at the time he succeeded Fletcher ia
cilities at Brest were adequate for
quite large force"
Admiral Wilson declared the five
converted yachts, which, it was testi-
fled, had been the only force available
for outward convoy of transports dur
ing Admiral Fletcher's command at
Brest, were worthless" for that serv-
ice.
Capt. N. c. Twining, counsel for Ad-
miral Sims, questioned the witness
competency to pass judgment upon
the adequacy of Admiral FIetcher's
force when you were not acquainted
in detail with what ne had to do with
it."
81 need no Details replied Admiral
Wilson. Il know that he had to es-
cOrt troop ships to sea and that he
had only a worthless force to do it
with. There is no question under
heaven about his forces having been
inadequate, because 1 had to suffer
under the same thing for months"
Testifying that he took three staff
officers and a considerable office
force with him To Prast Admiral Will
son declared he found practically
nothing to work with" in the Brest
organization when he got there.

VERA CRUZ WORTH VISITING
Mexican City Has a Number Of At
fractions That Invite the
Wandering Tourist.

Vera Cruz is a city Of contrasts. Its
wildly painted houses Of red, blue and
yellow. built close to the narrow
streets, have grated windows and
heavy, forbidding doors, which give
little evidence of the charming inte-
rlors with their. patios. palm-shaded,
dlled with exotic flowers and cooled
by fountains.
Modern street cars look out of place
In the same streets with. burros laden
with merchandise, fruits and vege-
tables, and caballeros in their broad
sombreros, wildly colored blankets,
enormous spurs and silver-mounted
saddles. Even the tropical climate is
In sharp contrast with the snow
capped. extinct volcano. Orizaba, which
towers almost 10000 feet into the cold
air above. Although this peak is near
ly fifty miles away from the city. it
can be plainly seen from there and
makes a beautiful picture standing
white against the sky or catching all
the colors of the sunrise.
Another point of interest is the an
cient fortress of San Juan dUlloa.
which is built on an island, connected
to the mainland at the northern end
by long sea wall. 1t has a fair ex-
terror, being painted pure and radi-
ant white. but hidden beneath this in
nocent mantle are dark and noisome
dungeons where many political pris-
oners of Mexico have been kept for
years.
Turning hastily from this unpleas-
ant scene, gentle reader, let US retrace
our steps to the center of the city.
which is marked by the plaza. This
is a large and beautiful square filed
with palms and flowers, and watched
over benignly by the ancient and
stately cathedral. Every evening dur
ing the band concert it is the quaint
custom of the youths of Vera Cruz to
promenade around the square on the
outside of the walk in one direction,
while the young girls. carefully watch
ed over by their duennas, walk in the
opposite direction on the inside. In
this way most Mexican f1irtations are
begun.
