Sponge Not Vegetable.

Sponges were long thought to be
vegetables, but they are now known to
be animals. Their appearance when
they come to the market Is so unlike
that of the living sponge that it is
quite to be expected that seeing it only
IN use one would hardly suspect its
origin. The sponge grows mostly at
the bottom OF the sea on rocks to
which Ii La fixed by a kind Of root.
IL La made up Of jellylike substance
and a framework OF tough fbers. This
framework is really the skeleton of
the sponge; 1t is the sponge OF com
merce. The skeleton Is covered with
n jelly-like substance and Is sticky
when taken out Of the water. They
are usually buried in the dry sand for
a time until the jelly part decays.
They are then put in wire cages into
the sea until they are washed clean

POSSIBLE TO HEAR SHADOW
Experiments With Selenium Have
Proved Truth of Assertion Made
by Scientists Years Ago.

We have all heard of the proverbial
pin 10 be heard dropping, and the
silence which could be felt, but DR..
Graham Bel made a statement on
May II, 1878. that he could hear a
shadow" (by interrupting the action
OF light upon selenium). says the Sci
entifie American.
Prof Willoughby Smith carried out
this idea and soon heard the sound
produced by the action Of a ray of
light upon bar of selenium In connec-
tion with a telephone
The experiment excited great inter
est at the time because the telephone
and monograph were in their infancy.
How was it done? A series of flashes
of light were let fall on selenium, caus-
ing intervals of light and darkness
The strength of the current continu-
ally varied, and If the flashes succeed
ed each other quickly enough. and
with sufficient regularity, a musical
note was heard by a person listening
at the telephone. Moreover, by plac-
ing a small mirror where light may be
reflected upon a distant selenium cell,
aided by lenses suitably arranged,
Prof Graham Bell was able to obtain
artieuIate sounds at about 700 feet.
Selenium was not much known in 1873,
when il was discussed at the Royal
society. in London. 1t is a rare ele-
ment, somewhat resembling sulphur.
In its vitrous state il is poor con-
ductor of electricity. but in its crys-
talline state it is very good one, and
when exposed to light the electric re-
sistance is a great deal diminished.

Evil in scarcity Of Homes.

Much of the unrest of the country
is due to the scarcity of homes, ac-
cording TO F. Roger Miller. secretary
of the chamber of commerce, Macon.
Ga, who addressed the convention Of
the National Association OF CONNER
cial Organization Secretaries at their
meeting in Chicago.
Marriages have continued at the
rate OF 10000 yearly In the United
States" he said. "But In 1918 only
10000 new homes were erected, while
In 1919 the number Of new homes was
only 10000.
This home shortage is not due to
the war, but to n neglect OF the prin-
ciples and ideals OF our fOrefathers.
Out of every 100 Americans 90 are dis
contented."
Mr.. Miller suggested placing the
housing problem upon a community
basis, with opportunity for every man
to buy q home suitable to his income,
and enactment Of bills to provide fed
eral aid for home builders.

WORTHY OF HIGHEST HONOR
intellectual Lines, Has Immense
Responsibilities.

To be worthy trailmaker one must
see in imagination the thousands who
will follow the path he has the temer-
fty to mark out. Sympathy for them
will affect every rod of his work. He
must be quick to note the points where
there may be confusion on the part Of
the climber No one can miss a path
cut through heavy underbrush. But
out in the open forest or on long
stretches Of treeless lodges he must
take particular pains. Trees must be
blaZed, footpaths made certain. Cairns
of stones must be placed like we'll
marked signposts. A trailmaker must
have it on his conscience that even
single traveller might fail because of
his failure to make the path certain.
If this is true of one who essays to
make a mountain trail, how much
greater the responsibility on him who
undertakes to blaze the way into those
higher ranges of human activity.
Honor to those who made their way
across the uncharted seas or trackless
wastes, but still more honor to those
who have dared to lead out into the
unknown regions of mind and heart
along every line of intellectual and
spiritual achievement.-Henry Wood
ward Hubert.

SCOUTS AS TRAFFIC AIDS.

In Fort Smith. Ark, scouts were
recently put on the job of recording
their observations ae TO how well
drivers of automobiles were obeying
traffic laws and reported that one
third of the motorists observed did
not slow down for railway crossings
and were otherwise criminally negli-
gent. As result of this report a more
stringent watch was set on trafic
and safer conditions enforced.
!. Another traffic job which won much
praise locally was the aid rendered
by hoy scouts to the police depart
msnt OF Detroit in handling holiday
crowds on two of the city's busiest
corners. Squads carried long ropes
preventing pedestrians from crossing
streets during vehicular traffic; when
the trafic direction changed a squad
leader signaled and the boys hurried
to block the other intersections. The
police say this work was never so
well managed before and greatly min
imized the number of accidents and
the prevalence of jay walking.

SEE CITIZENSHIP AS A DUTY
Happy the Community Which Has a
Number of PubIic-Spirited Men
and Women.

A good citizen is a man or woman
who takes real interest in his or her
home and the community in which
he or she is maintaining that home.
A good citizen is one who makes
every effort within his means to make
the community better place in which
to maintain the home.
A good citizen does not forget"
when election day comes round. He
makes 1t point to remember that
it is his duty as well as his privilege
TO exercise the right to the ballot.
A good citizen takes the time and
trouble to study the candidates in the
field at election time. He looks into
their records. weighs the facts concern
ing each one, and determines their
worth as public officials Then he
votes accordingly with reasonable in
telligence.
A good citizen studies the PROPOSE
lions that will be submitted to him at
election He weighs the value of the
issues. determines from the facts as
he understands them. whether the
propositions are good or bad. And
he votes accordingly with reasonable
intelligence.
A good citizen then. is one who full
fills his civic, home. and political
duties; one who is part of the gov
eminent OF himself and his fellow men
through the ballot that is given him
by the American Constitution. He is
not a sidestepper. He meets the
issues squarely and answers promptly
when his name is called. He is pres
ent at the polls on election day and
he knows what he is doing when he
casts his ballot.-Quincy, Qll) Wing.
