the work OF an industry that goes
hand in hand with present-day con-
servation methods has just been
received by the section as a Gift
from the Muskegon Machine Com
pany. Of Auskegon. Mich. These,
the products Of an automatic esve-
tail glue Jointer. are small samples
of what is being done in the way
OF building up automobile running
boards, doors. etc. chair seats,
holdings columns. frames ana
countless other things from small
pieces, much OF which has hitherto
been classed as waste. and has been
conveyed under boilers to be used
as fuel.
The process OF making wide lun-
Der from narrow stock is done at
one operation with the aid Of only
three men to a machine. A feeder
stands at either end Of the ma
chine and each feeds a narrow
piece OF wood into the machine at
the same time. Both pieces are
slowly drawn toward each other,
ana at a fxed point in the opera
ton both are taper grooved. the
taper Of one being opposite TO that
OF the other. At another point both
pieces are passed over a brush
which CLUES them uniformly. so that
when they come together the mar
row point Of the tongue Of one
piece slips into the groove OF the
other piece and by travelling to the
narrowest end forces the glue into
the very ibre Of the wood. Thus
the tfme-consuming method Of
separately jointing. Cluing. clamp
ing etc. is superseded by this one
operation method.

ZOO ATTRACTIONS.

A large sea COW" or raanatee. the
aquatic herbivorous mammal that
is fact becoming extinct in the
waters along our southern coast, g
the latest addition to the Zoo. This
animal was captured for the Zoo
logical Park by J. z. Bennett. OF
West Palm Beach. Fla. and is now
intalled in the center tank of the
lion house.
The sea COW made the trip from
Florida In a row boat shipped by
express. and was accompanied By
Mr.. Bennett The dificult task Of
transporting the animal was accom-
plished without mishap.
Each week a shipment of the
peculiar aquatic grass that is the
food of the animal will be received
by the Zoo. so that there will be no
chance of the animal dying from q
change Of diet. The new attraction
at the park weighs about l.S0o
pounds and is ten feet long.

INSISTS ON EQUAL
PRIVILEGES WITH MEN.

so you believe that our legis-
lators should not concern themselves
with the making of laws regulat-
ing the morals of women" Miss
Roweli was asked
Il certainly do not believe that
they should busy themselves with
any legislation that denies to wom-
en- the exercise of a privilege that
is permitted to men," replied Miss
Rowell. Liberty, equality and the
pursuit Of happiness" says our Con-
stitution. / suppose that those Gus
pidors seen so frequently in Con-
gressional halls are there as a re-
suit OF the pursuit of happiness; :
so perhaps is the spectacle of both
men and women smoking in public
or private the result of a similar
pursuit-hence, another reason for
noninterference by law-and surely
a double reason for noninterferece
that produces discriminatory legisIa-
ton.

Of some of our Congressional dele

UNIQUE SALES PLAN
FOR LEXINGTON CAR

A sales campaign unique in the
motor car industry has been launch
cd by the Lexington Motor Company
Of Connersville, Ind, for this week.
II really amounts to a sale OF
thoroughbreds-not horses or Pc
kinese blue ribbon winners-but that
blue-blood Of the motor field, the
Thoroughbred sport model which
rigged up IN racing attire, swept the
platter clean OF money and honors
at the annual Pixies Peak Hill climb
last Labor Day.
The sales campaign will be ma
tion-wide Lexington's highly eff
cient distributor and dealer organi-
zation. with representation in prac-
tically every part OF the country, will
concentrate its sales effort during
the week on Thoroughbred sport
models
Frank B. Ansted. president OF the
Lexington Motor Company, is put
ting TO practical test the lessons
pointed out in the readjustment pc
riod through which all industry has
just passed He believes the chief
lesson 10 be learned was the passing
OF the sellers market, as result
of which there was not enough
good cars TO go around, and the
problem confronting those in the
Industry was more a matter OF de-
liveries than sales.
Mr.. Ansted believes that the way
to sell cars under the changed con-
ditions is TO get out and sell them
Hence this weeks campaign on one
OF the most poular models the Lex
ington Motor Company has ever
produced.
This sport model has a touch OF
the unconventional. but retains that
dignity which appeals to the lover OF
true style. II Is lower and narrower
than the regular touring car yet II
has ample room to seat four passen-
gers with a maximum of comfort
The equipment OF the thorough
bred Is as complete as modern engi-
neering and construction can make
il. Like all other Lexington models
it is equipped with motor meter, en-
gine driven tire pump and 2-Way
Head Lamps.

REVENU ESURE TO
EXCEED APPROPRIATIONS

With everything cleared for action
on the last day of this session Of the
general assembly, it was learned this
morning that persons closely in touch
with Governor Thomas W. Hardwiek
estimate that even should the general
tax act be tabled by the house, an
excess of revenue of approximately
$500, 900 win be shown over tJA gem
eral appropriations bill for 1922.
These conclusions are said to have
been reached from estimates that
the gasoline tax law will bring into
the states Golfers not $350,000 as
first thought, but around S1,100,000,
while the fertilizer tag tax will yield
$300,000, two-thirds Of which vii go
to the treasury. With the old tax
act this would give the state a coal
income of abou $10,00,000
Another basis may be found IN
the current report that the senate
has 'pigeon-holed" practically all
.he special appropriation bills,
amounting to approximately $3,500,-
600, and that the general appropria-
tions bill will not carry total Of
over $9,400,000
Although the house refused early
Tuesday afternoon to pass commit
tee amendments providing for the
lease of the mansion property and
new home for the governor, and
passed the original senate measure
providing only for fifty-year lease.
both branches adopted a resolution
requesting the senate. to amend the
