county farmers in the past 10 days
have encountered so may humble bees
that in many instances they found 1t
necessary to quit blowing for wheat
sowing. Bundle bees, according to
the farmers, are more numerous this
season than usual because of the long
dry spell and the fact that more red
clover was planted. The bees until
the rain of Saturday lived in the
ground, but now are making their
homes in the trees.

The cog railroad is 47,992 feet
long beginning at the Iron Springs,

summit OF the mountain. The
stoepest grade is 2S per cent and
the sharpest curve is 90 per cent
with radius OF 259 feet. For
forty-five minutes Mulford was
stalled behind a broken down cog
train.
p The average grade of the cog
road is 8 per cent. The maximum
grade of 25 per cent covers Il
continuous distance of a mile and
three-quarters. This stretch is
known as Son-of-a-Gun hill AT Win
dy Point. One and a half gallons
of water were used by the machine
in making the trip.
The spacings between the ties
on the cog road are filled with
granite ballast. Because of the

N BIGGER BIC GUN"

Those who recall the shudder, with which the news that Germany was bombarding Paris from a distance of sixty miles was greeted, will be inter- ested to know that the French have purchased the rights in a gun which is reported to have range of 1S0 miles. Moreover the invention. it is guns, rifles and machine guns with the result of greatly increasing their velocity and range.
 It is especially appropriate that may eventually make the former bombardmcnt of Paris seem as the play of children. In the discussion of the League of Nations, reconstruction work, and political plans for war prevention. the physical aspect of the mprobability of future wars has been more or less lost sight of
 Reported mysterious developments of the possibilities of gas, made in our own country: the lessons regard Ing alf-HSnClnS learned In the great conflict, and now this remarkable in Nention. all point to the conclusion that the last was, in fact. the final war in which the greater nations will be involved.
 All contests have the same basic characteristics. War does not differ from sport fundamcntally. There have been many games which have seemed to offer splendid opportuni- ties for excitement, the popularity of which. however, has been short. Soon it was discovered that were one con- testant to adopt a certain means of attack. the game was ended immedi- ately: the opponent was vanquished. Whichever side adopted this invinci- ble form of attack first. won the game.
 The end of War will come not through any change in human nature, but through the perfection of destruc- tive machinery which will prove wars folly to the most ignorant.

church here favoring action which would result in the non-recognition of divorce. Of course the opposition in England to the bill that has just been advanced is in harmony with the feeling in this country behind eths agita ton. It's passage there would be another step in the separa- tion of church and state, institutions already severed to degree never wholly acquesced in by the secret hearts of reactionaries.
 Entirely aside from the question of ting the demoralzation resultant from the facilitating of means of ob- taining separations of this character, one sees in the advancement of this bill and it's expected passage by the House of Commons a rather start ling spirit of independence. More over it is probable that the levelling of ancient barriers between classes and creeds. and the new touch of cOmaraderie, slight it is, brought about by the war, is reflected in the attitude toward this almost revolu- tionary measure.
 And again is accentuated the need in this country of a Federal Divorce Law. Men and women may differ as to what should constitute grounds for divorce: they may differ to the propriety' of permitting the granting of any divorce in any case; but they must agree that if there are any grounds at all those grounds should be recognized in every state. Awful is the condition which holds a man and woman married in one state and not married in another. X case in point is cited:
 A wife wed and living in the State of New York goes to another state where she sues her husband whose treatment has driven her from him. The husband. remaining in New York, has actual notice of his wife's action for divorce, as we'll as the legal notice prescribed by the sta tutes of the state in which the wife's suit IS brought. The divorce IS granted, and the wife marries again. She rears a family in her new home and thereupon the husband, still in New York, obtains q divorce from her based on the only grounds by which divorce may be obtained in that state. Thus her legal marriage in that other state becomes grounds for divorce in New York. The courts of New York, reluctantly following precedent, stamp the wife with the scaElet letter, her children with the bar sinister.
 Let England discuss what shall be grounds for divorce; let this coun- try make it's laws of universal appli- cation. l.. .,,ht-

MOTHER KEEPS WAR BABY,
MacNichoIS. Who Adopted Child, Are
 Not to Get It Yet

Baltimore. March 25.-In several respects the case of Kenneth Mac- NichOl and his wife, who adopted the husbands war baby, differs from tho Spiker case. The French mother ot the child has not come to the house of the MacNichols and has not given up her child. Miss Leonie Winckel the mother. still is in Washington. where little Edith was born. but will soon return with it to France. The child will be entitled to an interest in the fathers estate.
 The mothers consent to the adop- ton, written in both English and French, was filed with the petition of the MacNichols It reads:
 This is to certify that of my own free will l grant permission to Kenneth Mac\ 1chol to legally adopt my infant Edith. However, it is un- derstood that the child is to remain in my possession for the first seven years, or until other arrangemen ents are made between her parents by adoption and myself by mutual agree- ment.'
 The MacNichols live on the Reis- terstown road near RejstefStoWn.

THIS PICTURE AND THAT.

Getting the goat of prize fight CT by his opponent has been an ef- fective aid to victory for years. In tereSting tales are told of the re- marks whispered into the "cauliflow- err ear of one combatant by his scheming antagonist, with a resultant loss of nerve by him who hears the more or less unprintable comments. A short story in one of the popular Weeklies recently was based on the fact that 8 fighters wife had deserted him, because of an argument over which one should wheel the baby carriage should the happy couple be blessed with an occupant therefor, and other fighters, aware of the fact but ignorant of the cause were prone to remind the unfortunate young hus- band of the incident.
 Georges Carpenter. champion heavyweight of Europe, veteran of the war, has arrived in this country possibly to fight Jack Dempsey, cham pion heavyweight of America, alleged draft dodger.
 There is nothing but scorn due the man who hits another when he is down. 1t is probable that Dempsey is no worse than hundreds of others in this country guilty of the things of which he is accused but who are saved from prosecution by their ob- scurity. Dempseys physical courage has been tried many times and proved. If he is guilty his guilt is due to causes other than physical cowardice.
 But the fascination of the contem- plation of the two men in the same prize ring is irresistible. The gong sounds to call the contestants to the center of the ring to shake hands preparatory to their battle. Dempsey, the American, dances forward, his perfect physical condition and near two hundred pounds of muscle pre- senting a formidable appearance. Georges Carpenter, the Frenchman, rises from his seat in the corner and, walking forward, holds aloft his CroiN de Guerre with six stars and his award for bravery in the aviation service. What of the "soat?' What of the fight?
 But the man with the Croix de Gucrra will not debase himself and his honor thus. Nor will his refrain ing from so doing be caused by a confidence in his ability. Here will lie the greatest opportunity for ''get- ting his goat ever offered in the his- tory of the ring. And it will be scorned.
