UNABLE TO SEE ONES SELF
Why No Person Can Have a Really
Clear Idea Of Just How He or
She Looks.

No man or woman has any really
clear idea how he or she looks. The
expression Of the face Is always
changing, and no artist, no camera,
can catch this tieeting expression. You
see yourself by gazing at a mirror
When your mind Is busy with the
operation in hand you do not think
of noticing how you look When YOU
stand in front of the glass with the
deliberate intention of seeing how you
look, your face bears the imprint Of
that intention, and you do not see
yourself as you are naturally, but as
you appear when you have something
to think about You have perhaps as
sumed different expressions as you
gaze at yourself have tried to laugh
in order to see how you look, but 1t
is all unnatural. When you have seen
your own photo, have you not been dis
apponted2 You have usually thought
that 1t was not like you. And your
relatives have said-"Yes, we have
seen you look like that" The camera
depicts the sitter just as he is at the
moment the picture Is taken, but very
seldom can the instrument catch that
subtle thing called natural express
sion" because few persons are natural
when seated In front Of the camera
When we remember how our thoughts
change the expression of our face we
can understand that 1t Is not possible
for any individual to know how he
himself looks:-ExchQnge.

Migrate.

The ninety-lourth milestone as an IN
incorporated village was passed by
Hoosick Falls last Thursday. The in
corporation took place on April a.
1927. at which time Seth Parsons was
elected President of the Board OF Irus-
tees. At the time of its incorporation
1t is said the population OF the village
was two hundred, the number OF bui d
ings thirty six, the number of electors
fifty. and the total valuation OF the
property, S96,370.
II Is said that "Hoosac,' the origi-
nal name of the town, was an old In
dian name. which when translated
means "Owl Valley" or Valley Of the
owl hoo being the name for owl
and sac for valley. The United

water and the valleys are bordered in
many places by steep hillsides, the
town being divided into nearly two
equal parts by the Hoosick River
This river Is of great historic inter

stream that the French and Indians
made their marches against the vii
Hayes of New England. The settlement
of the Hoosick Valley was greatly de

This stormy period extended from 1868
to 1850 Hoosick, owing to its location
on the dirHct route from Canada to the
