RED MEN

While scouting in the forest on last

found intruding on the sacred home of

but after passing thru the ordeal, they
came out as men without fear. and
they were adopted into the tribe, and
instructed in the written and unwrit-
ten laws and customs of the aborigi-
ncs Of the American continent-those
rules and regulations by which the
primitive Red Men required neither
sherffs, constables, policemen, jails
nor prisons! When they gave honor
to whom honor was due, without re-
gard to influence, condition or solicita-

There will be another full meeting Of

WHICH LOVED BEsTs

"I love you, mother" said little John:
Then, forgetting his work, his cap went
on,
And he was off to the garden swing,
And left her wood and water to bring.
"f love you mother said rosy Nell;
II love you better than tongue can
tell"
Then she tcased and pouted full half
the day.
Till her mother rcjoiced when she went
to play.
II love you mother" said little Fan;
To-day I'll help you all I can;
How glad ! am that school doesn't
keep!"
So she rocked the baby till it fell
asleep.
Then stepping softly she fetched the
broom:
And swept the floor and tidied the
room:
Busy and happy all day was she.
Helpful and happy as child could be
IT love you, mother" again they said
Three little children going to bed.
How do you think that mother guessed
Which of them really loved her best

MODERN woopMEN OF AMERICA

The previous good attendance of the
regular meetings OF Camp I'LL failed
to come up to the standard at the'last
meeting, but was probably due to the
fact that the big meeting with the
head officers present was on for the
next night and members were afraid to
risk two nights in succession. Now
that the big meeting is past We want
all t. attend every regular meeting
and help carry out plans as advised
by our head officers.
Another of our members has passed
to the great beyond, Neighbor Harry
G. Wright. who passed away a few
days ago at his home in Kansas City,

Tube Thru the Earth

Recently. at a meeting OF some
prominent men in England, the aues-
ton OF sinking n shaft into tho earth
to a depth of from IL to 80 miles. as
a possible new source of power was
discussed. The cost of sinking such
n shaft to IL miles would be at least
$50 1000. 900 and would take about S5
years to complete. this being about
ten times tho depth of any shaft in
existence.
The greatest problem to be reckon
ed with would be that of heat. 1t be-
ing definitely known that the tenn
peraturc rises one degree to every 20
feet of descent. During the first two
or three miles the waste matter could
be hoisted to the surface by means OF
a cable. but beyond this depth cables
of the best steel would break under
their own weight
Altho engineers could doubtless
tackle this tremendous task, the prob
lens involved would be of quito n
novel and difficult nature.

and Guiana, can administer quite "A
severe electric shock. sometimes
strong enough to overcome "a horse.
