In connection with an editorial in

that time spent in examinations will
be cut so percent in the Cambridge

Union in educational progress, has no

when he made this statement, and

the nations wealth that escapes tax

ties, the speaker told of a neighbor on
whose farm an oil well had been
brought in. For some time he bought
more land, until during the war he
owned thousands of acres. At that
time, however, taxes became burden.

Cotton Stalks Will Furnish Paper.

The possibilities of cotton stalks as a source of paper have long been Sus- pected and experiments in this direc- tion have been made, but for one req son or another it has never proved quite practical.
 The nearest approach to success has been made recently. and il is an bounced that there is i plant at Greenwood, Mass, where 5o tons of paper are made every day from three times that amount of stalk
 Certain thin tubular fiber In the plant will make excellent cellulose for durable papers. It is strong and fiex- ible. If quarter of the annual SUD- ply of the cotton stalks of the South were put to this use each year there would be no need of a paper shortage in this country.

 "Just q halt-dollar," said he.
 Tt Is such a large piece, would you mind cutting il at the jont?'
 "Surs, I will" he replied.
 After cutting off the large knuekle he again balanced the long, slim shin bone on his hand and said
 You may have this for 40 cents"
