Alarm Clock as EaQ Urge.

Councilman Lester Lutz is some what of a chicken fancler, writes Berwick (Pa.)- correspondent of the New York Tribune. Recently he tried the experiment of placing in his chicken pen electric lights that would switch on at four o'clock in the morning. He believed it would re- suit in getting more eggs from the hens That stunt didn't work, because the chickens failed to be aroused, even by the light in the pen, but Lutz thought further than that.
 He got an alarm clock and put that in the pen, so it would ring every morning at four o'clock, the same time the lights were switched on.
 'Formerly I was getting only six eggs day from pen of 20 Leg hOrns," said Lutz. "NOw I am get ting 12, 13 and 14 eggs a day from the same hens"
 He invites visitors to come to his pen and see the electric lighting sys- tem and the alarm clock.

MAN OF DAuNTLEss SPIRIT
Captain Arthur Phillip, First Cover nor of New South Wales, Made
 Light of Difficulties.

History teens with records of great enterprises carried through with cour- age and strong purpose. The early settlement of Australia provides c good example of this. Capt. Arthur Phillip, the first governor or New South Wales, unObtrusively set sail from the Isle of Wight. on a May morning in 17s7, with II ships, mostly ill-eQuipped, and so started lnaus- piciously, on, his 12,OO0 miles voyage to the AntipOdes.
 It was not until eight months later that is on January 26, 178S, that the expedition landed at Sydney cove, sit uated inside the world famous Sydney HarbOr. The anniversary of this his- tOric landing is punctiliously observed throughout the commonwealth as a public holiday.
 Captain Phillip, with every concelV- able difficulty to face, including un- suitable settlers, great shortage Of food and every kind of equipment, yet weathered the storm. His every re- port home was couched in a cheery spirit. Most of the seed wheat and other grain had unfortunately become spoiled on the voyage out and things were looking bad. Anticipations of help were centered on the impending arrival of the relief ship which was due early in 179O, but the vessel struck an iceberg near the cape, and the car go had to go overheard to save the ship, which was then compelled to re- turn to port. This even necessitated the strict ratiOning of the settlers. In writing home, the governor referred to his desperate situation as "these little difficulties which we have en- countered."
 Such was the man who initiated the settlement of Australia. His attitude toward the natives demonstrated at once his humanity and statesmanshtp for he showed them great kindness and did his best to establish friendly relations between them and his set tiers. Ultimately the settlement flour ished and formed the nucleus of the commonwealth as it is known today and thus well has Governor Phillip earned the distinction of being in' cluded in the roll of honor of the "Men Who Built the Empire"

JIntestinal rrOuble From cheese.

Hylekema, in Dutch medical jour- nal, reports instances of gastro-enter- itis affecting persons who had eaten certain cheeses. By exclusion he comes to the conclusion that the dis turbanceS were the result of the con- tents of the vesicles on the udders get ting into the milk, as the cows had foOt-and-mOuth disease at the time. None of the cheeses were factory made. This same explanation Ats also seven cases of acute gastrO-enteritis with bloody vOmit in two families from two to four hours after eating boiled buttermilk, although the existence of fOOt-and-mOuth disease could not be affirmed.

farm six miles south of Glidden
when Merle enlisted. After he was

where they lived about two years.
later moving to this last farm they
bought

here have reported, at the request OF

full list of all American citizens in
Russia, including those in bolshevikl
prisons. This list will be turned

tain that at least 100 claiming to be
Americans are in Russia and are

is believed efforts will be made to
facilitate their speedy retur'. to the
United States.
The departure from Russia OF

distress in southeastern Russia.

France is said to have declared il

ceived yesterday, thanking France
for its offer of cooperation and il
