BARK OF TREE NOT WOOD
Scientist Corrccts an impression
Which Has Long Been More OF
Less Widely Held.

Bark ON trees and shrubs CORE
spends with the skin nn animals. But
ic isn't wood, according to Que scen-
tist. and 1t isn't formed rs wood Is
formed. 1t covers the wood, aad il is
generally an easy matter to separate
the bark from the wood. Hemp and
jute and flax are all bars--the outside
covering of certain vegetable growths.
Bark is composed of three layers of
tissue. The inside layer conducts food
to- the plant, and under n magnifying
glass is seen to be made up of tiny
fibers. Then there is the green zone" :"
as 1t is called, and this also is fibrous
and helps feed the plant The out
side layer is cork, and Is really dead.
That is, these cork cells develop and
die Immediately. so one really sees
only dead tree when he looks at the
bark. The cork of commerce is the
bark Of certain kind of tropical tree,
but the outer layer OF bark OF all trees
is technically known as cerk, and the
little cells going to make it up are
called cork

MISTAKE IN THE LOCATION
Despite Walters Assertion, Traveller
Was Convinced They Were in
the Wrong Room.

The late William Dean Howells was
very fond of travelling in Spain. He
once said on his return from Anda-
tusia:
"The Spaniards, especially the
southern Spaniards. have enormous
families. Eight children is the aver
9ge, and families of Is and IL chill
dren are quiet common.
But they don't know how to raise
these children. They take babies OF
three or four months travelling with
them. In every hotel and train there
are sure to be as many babies as
adults.
II was ushered one evening by a
Malaga waiter into the lofty marble
Dn1 bronze restaurant of sumptuous
hotel. The restaurant was crowded
with babies.
This is our dining hall, senor,'
said the waiter complacently.
Il put my hands to my ears.
".Your dining halI?' / said. Don't
you mean your bawl room?'"

are beginning to realize that this

They were right fnen. I'm the end slav-
cry received ite decree of banishment
from this continent and at las, from
| the world
Ii was ths same in the more recent
war of the free peoples agaInc the
antocfacies of the world. In Its be-
ginnings men fought TO protect that
| which they already had. our coun-
try's lives were AT stake, their rights
or froemen were menaced and for
these they went forth to battle. There
was no thought of crusading for the
freedom of a world, of emancipating
distant peoples, of rendering mobile
service To the enemy who had attacked
them. They had no time and small
disposition 10 indulge in altruisms.
Yet as in the case of our Civil War,
they won far more than they had
sought i'm the beginning. They won
for themselves, their homes. their
countries; and in doing SO they de-
stroyed well-nigh the last entrench-
ments Of the mistaken doctrine of di-
vine right TO rule. They gained the
victory for their own grateful coun-
tries. and with 1t they won for those
they defeated the opportunity Of ea-
tablishing free institutions. of plant
ing dcmocracies where absolutism had
held sway. of making the people SUI
preme.
Thus we see that. whether in our
civil struggle or in the World War.
the triumph of the right inevitably
implies gains that sweep far beyond
the immediate issue.
Wrote Lessons In blood.
Those heroes Of the Civil War who
sleep about us here wrote that lesson
in symbols nf blood and fire where All
men might read And they did yet
more: they taught the lesson OF a
great community making its fight for
freedom as business of the whole
people. Never before had there been
an example on such scale of the en-
tire human and Industrial power Of n
people being east into the common
cause. Wars had largely been profess
sional affails. I'm the hands of trained
