the present. With thousands marry
ing each year, the number of new
homes being erected TO house them is
sadly inadequate. 1t is estimated
there are a million homes short in the
~United States. That is why every
family should seriously consider the
possibility of getting a home of its
own. For the family of moderate
means the bungalow affords an excel
lent shelter. 1t is small, comparative
ly inexpensive, and delightfully."- cozy
and comfortable. Moreover it is dis
tinctively individual in design.
Such a home is the charming bun
galow shown here with floor plans.
Low rambling design, it forms a very
pleasing picture with its immaculate
white stucco exterior and ~seclusive
front porch recessed under an extern
sion of the roof. 1t gives an impress
sion of bigness, but really is not as
large as it looks at a glance, as the
dimensions show. This bungalow
home is SO feet wide and 80 feet long
on the longest side which includes the
wing containing the rear bedroom.

Uppermost in the thoughts of most
families today is the question Of home
where they are going to live-hOw
much it will cost-and will they be able
TO pay. Thousands are practically fac
ing eviction upon the expiration of
their present leases in May. Their
rents have been raised to a point
where they can no longer pay and
live, so they must move. Consequent
ly they are in a nerve-racking diem
ma. The possibility Of their getting
a new fiat at a reasonable rate is very
slim and they are confronted with a
situation that demands considerable
thought and worry. Many of them
are turning to a sure PURGE of relief,
buying a home. In q home of their
W their worries over rents. land
lords, leases, etc, cease. They become
independent citizens of a community /;
not wandering nOmads and tent dwell
lers. And this can be done at less
monthly outlay than if they attempted
to rent an apartment.
Never was there a time when homes
were needed as badly as they are at

Hamleth was prince of Jutland; his
father, the king of Jutland, had been
murdered by his Owl brother, Fengo,
who took the throne and queen Of the
dead man. Hamleth feigned madness
to save his w life. He stabbed one
of Fengo's cOurtiers, sent to spy upon
him, and for this purpose concealed
himself under q truss of straw. He
r~eproached his mother with her
shameful second marriage to such eff
feet that she promised to help him
in avenging his father by putting
Fengo TO death-a promise which she
kept. These are the very incidents
Shakespeare has selected for his play,
sometimes emphasizing the points of
the narrative, sometimes softening
them or changing them in harmony
with his own vivid conception of
dramatic requirements. Shakespeare's
Hamlet" was first played in 1000 or
1901, and first printed in 1903.

ILLEGAL TO WATER OATS
TO INCREASE THEIR WEIGHT

From the interest displayed by the
trade, much good is expected to re-
suit from the series of joint confer
enceS recently concluded in a num-
Der OF southern cities between Off
Gals Of the Bureau of Markets and
the Bureau of Chemistry of the Uni
ted States Department of Agriculture
and Representatives of the grain
trade, held for the purpose of max
ing clear the requirements of the
Food and Drugs Act and it's relation
ship to the Grain Standards Act.
A misunderstanding of the mean
ing of adulteration of grain. particu-
iarly oats, it is said has been more
or less prevalent in certain localities
Some dealers have thought that it
would not be violation of the Food
and Drugs Act to add water or for
eign material SO long as the grain
made the grade" under the require
mentS of the Grain Standards Act.
Oats are apt to have a lower mois-
ture content at this time of the year
than the maximum permissible I'M
der the standards, and this presents
a temptation, it is said, to add water
before marketing, to increase the
weight. The conferences made clear
the fact that this is illegal.
AS evidence of the interest in the
conferences, it is said, that about 81
members of the trade attended the
Nashville meeting, and practically
eyary grain firm in the city was rem
resented at that held in Louisville
Other conferences were held at Cairo
Ill, and Memphis, Tenn.

DOES MISSISSIPPI RIVER FLOW
UPHILL?

Docs Mississippi River flow. up
hill?" is frequently the subject of
school debates, and such debates US
ually arise from inaccurate or indef-
mite uses of the terms uphill and
"downhill."
In answer to correspondent who
recently made this inquiry, the
United States Geological Survey
sent the following reply: Some peo-
pie describe down" or lat a lower
elevation" when referring to two
localities. as the one nearer the CEN
ter of the earth. and consider the
upper" of the two as the one farth-
er from the center. If only a small
area is considered this is practically
true. but in referring to widely sep
arated localities, such as the source
and the mouth of Mississippi River
such a definition would lead to an
absurdity and must therefore be in
correct.
The surface of water at rest is a
level surface, as that phrase is usual
ly understood. Any particle of mat
ter above such a surface will be at a
higher elevation. and if acted on by
natural forces alone will tend TO go
down toward the water. Mean sea
level is the surface generally accept
ed as the datum or reference plane
for all topographic elevations.
The source of Mississippi River is
about 1.5OO feet above mean sea level
Therefore. the unrestrained water at
the source of the river. under the &C
ton of natural forces, tends to go
down to sea level at the rivers
mouth.
AS the equatorial radius of the
earth is about Ii miles greater than
the polar radius. and as the inter
mediate radii differ in length be-
tween these limits and as the source
of the Mississippi is nearly 10 de-
greeS of latitude farther north than
it's mouth. it follows that the mouth
of the river is about 4 miles farther
from the center of the earth than
it's source. The combined effect of
gravity and centrifugal force makes
the water of the river run downhill.
although actually the water moves
away from the center of the earth in
doing so.

C0ny Baseball Warriors
In Battle Array for Big Game
at Gardiner Today

Yes sir it will be the game of the

it last night: I'VE will go down to
Gardiner and give them good game
at least. Our boys are going good
and are hitting the ball. Their cour-
age is splendid and we expect 10 win"
That is the situation in a nutshell here
in the Capital City. Courage and con-
fidence count for a lot and the boys
every one of them have it a plenty.
The Gardiner High nine undoubtedly
will leave no stone unturned to reap
the score that will count them VIC
tory. Gardiner, it must be admitted
has good combination, but the Cony
boys believe that they can go them
one better.
The local team will leave the city
at $50 o'clock. making the trip in au-
tomobiles, and it is expected one of the
largest crowds ever accompanying a
baseball squad from this school will
be on hand to make the journey, lend
