International President of Switchmen's
Union Says That FAMINE viii
Stop Strike
10000 MEN ARE NOW OUT

Chicago, April 9.--Furher spread OF
the insurgent strike Of switchmen and
enginemen and on railroads through
out the country was indicated by re-
ports today showing that over 10000
men have joined the strike.
In spite of the fact that the un-
authorized strike Of switchmen and
enginemen which started in Chicago
has spread to dozen other large rail-
road centres n the middle West and in
the Easl, officials of the unions and the
railways affected declared that the
trouble would soon be at an end, A
f. Whitney, vice-president OF the
brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
and S. e. Heberling, International pres
ident Of the Sw.tchmen's Union Of
North America, the organizations from
which the strikers have seeded, pre-
dcted tonight that the strike weu d
be broken within the next forty-e ght
hours.
Famine will end the strike If the
men refuse to listen to reason said
Heberling. "The men will be in the
bread lines in two weeks II they DO
not return TO work.
1T would be possible under the
terms of the transportation act to
arrest those who are responsible for
the str ke for conspiracy, but do
not think that such dra site measures
viii be necessary. But II the strike
continues much longer the publ C
will demand Government action and
prosecution of the parties guilty OF
having caused all this suffering
The best thing the trainmen can do
S to return to work today"

Boy Scouts Help Library

1t was requested by the Book Com
mittee of the Penns Grove Public Ii
brary that the Boy Scouts make a
drive for books. The troop committee
made plans for the drive and offered
a prize to the Scout that secured the
greatest number of books. The prize
is to be a free trip to Boy Scout Camp
on August 21st to 28th inclusive.
Scout E. Phillips secured 107 books,
and F. Layton Peters secured 70
books. Owing to the fact that only
two Scouts took part IN the drive it
has been decided by the Committee to
reward both of them for their good
turn to the Library Association. We
also wish to thank the citizens of
Penns Grove for their assistance, for
by helping the Library they have also
made two happy Scouts. ]. c. Black,

FoREsaW CONQUEST OF AIR
But 5rother-In-Lsw Of oliver cronr
we'll Had Some ideas That
Appear Crude Today.

John wilkins, who married Robina.
sister of Oliver Cromwell, in 1855. had
original ideas on flying. He set forth
his theories in book in which he dis
cussed four possible varieties Of avia-
ton: BY spirits or angels, by the help
Of fowls, by wings fastened immedi-
ately TO the body. and by a flying
chariot.
wilkins wrote that the fourth way
seemed to him 'much more useful
than the rest; and that is by flying
chariot, which may be so contrived
as TO carry q man within Il; and
though the strength Of spring might
perhaps be serviceable for the motion
Of this engine. yet 1t were better to
have IL assisted by the labor of some
intelligent mover And. therefore, If
IT were made big enough TO carry sun
dry persons together, then each Of
them in their several turn might sue
cessfully labor in the causing of this
notion"
wilkins was one Of the founders
of the Royal society. He believed II
should be "easy to frame an instrument
wherein anyone may sit and give such
motion unto 1t as shall convey him
aloft through the air"

haturs,. natural processes.

We are. living on globe we call
solid, but In fact It is plastic ard
changeable, with gaseous ocean
above us and n liquid one below it.
From these three factors all organic
life is created. and upon them it de-
ponds for it's existence. Vegeta e life
derives its life and body from certain
chemical combinations, induced by the
action OF the suns radlations. AMI
NAL life depends on vegetable
life, and also serves other ami
mails as food. All these return to
mother earth and thus pay the debt
they borrowed. From this we learn
that what is death and destruction of
one is life Of another Wherefore
what we call waste and destruction is
only a necessary and unavoidable
process OF the living functions OF
mother earth.-Exchange

BIRD HIDES NEST cLEVERLY
eouth American Fiery Topaz Knows
Well the Value Of Matching colors
to Deceive Enemies.

Perhaps the most wonderful thing
about the fiery topaz humming bird is
the manner in which 1t makes It's nest.
In this respect II is a past master of
camoufiage for a very obseryaDt person
or animal could be quite close to one
OF these nests and never be able to dis
tinguIsh 1t from the bough or trunk
nest is truly remarkable on account OF
It's structure, and in appearance II
greatly resembles leather, colored to
represent the fungus and moss that
grows upon the trees in the Amazon
river region, where IT makes its home.
Still more interesting is the manner In
which the nest is attached TO the bark,
as these birds weave 1t on In such
manner that II is difficult to see just
where the bark or nest begin. The nest
is composed Of a kind of fungus which
the birds gather and match their colors
so well that camouhage effect Is COM
plete.
As might be guessed from the name,
the fiery topaz is mostly a brilliant
scarlet, which contrasts beautifully
with the few black markings notice
able on the neck, as well as the green
on the lower part of the back. There
are no more harmonious colors than
green and red, recognized everywhere
as an outdoor combination that Is hard
to surpass, so one can Imagine that
the fiery topaz compares we'll with the
birds of the South American Jungles.
Although member of the humming-
bird family. the fiery topaz is noted
for the remarkably large size that II
sometimes attalns, as the entire length
is often as great as eight inches
