WONDERS Of HUMAN B0DY
More Complex and In Greater Har'
mony Than Any Manufacturing
Plant Possible TO Imagine.

We engineers are apt to forget that
the human body is the most wonder
full work OF engineering in the world.
AS, plant 1t is more complex than
the largest works In existence, John
FL. Van Deventer writes In Industrial
Management. Take the digestive tract,
the Emphatic system, the framework
Of bones, the innumerable muscle
motors, the co-ordinating functions
performed by the liver, kidneys and
other internal organs. And to 60 q
step further, take the sensory depart
ments. How about the wonderful op-
tical plant in which colored moving
pictures are instantaneously taken
and developed? How about the phon0-
graphic department where the sound
vibrations are received, recorded and
reproduced? And the sense Of touch
so delicate that the fingers can be
trained to feel fat spots on q steel
ball which are not apparent to the
eye? Think of the thousands Of func-
lions performed simultaneously, the
routine ones automatically and those
requiring judgment being cared for at
the same time through other channels.
You will agree with me surely that
the body contains the most elaborate
organizations ever installed in any
plant; that its component parts are
examples of finer kind of design than
wye will ever approximate and that the
functions and their relations are CO.
ordinated more smoothly than we will
ever be able to arrange human rela-
lions.

Officers OutWitted.

Our community had an example of
Federal efficiency in the enforcement
Of the prohibition amendment in this
city Thursday evening of last week,
says the Tracy Headlight Herald.
Federal officers, J. F. Whelon and
S. C. Hicks, of St. Paul, and Deputy
Sheriff Regnier of Marshall, collected
two stills in raid made upon the
Bugher Garage on Fourth street and
quantity of moonshine was also
found in tour about Tracy. The Off
GERS started on their hunt about a p.
m. and after making trip into the
country, returned later in the evening
and about 7 o'clock parked their car
which had the two stills in it near the
Anderson Cafe on Front street while
they went inside for some supper.
This is where the action began to
move rapidly to the climax. When
they returned to the car after supper
they we're surprised to discover that
their quarry someway had escaped in
the meantime Then began a hunt
for the abductors and the stolen prop
erty. But those who had outwitted the
officers were clever enough to cover
their tracks and no clues have been
found of the stills.
In connection with the above, The
Headlight-H also reports that a
Jail delivery was accomplished during
the night. A party known around
| Tracy as "Hardboiled" was locked up
in the city Jail on charge of drunk
enpess. While the police officer was
at the depot for the incoming night
trains, two unknown parties entered
the Jail and at the point of gun fore
ed Carl Peterson, who was temporarily
in charge of the place, into vacant
cell where he was locked in. The lock
was broken from the cell in which the
"Hardboiled" party was lodged and
the three disappeared. No trace has
been found of them, it is understood.

or one more difficult to solve now

says.
According. to the reports from 29O
cities, six percent of the children have
left school before their thirteenth year
nineteen per cent before fourteen
thirty Eight per cent before fifteen
and sixty-four per cent before they
are sixteen years old.
In the geographical groups, the
report continues. "the highest per-
cent of these children remain in the
western cities. Next in order are the
Great Plains cities, then the southern,
the Great Lakes, and lowest of all are
the eastern cities. In this last group
only tweny-nine per cent of the chill
dren sixteen years of age, and fifty
six per cent of those from fourteen
to sixteen years, inclusive, are in
school," Attention is directed to "a
notable falling off in attendance" at
evening schools during the last six
years period. Of unusually high
wages"

The fastest game of the season.
The afternoon game was fast but the
evening game was furious. Redwood
of course was handicapped because the
lads didn't have as much rest as the
New Ulm boys, but they played the
best game they have ever played.
New Ulm started the first rally and
at end of first quarter the score was
5 to 10 with Redwood on the short
end. But bud" Smith knew it could
be done, so he worked and with bril-
liant playing ran the score to II and
II at end of first half. New Ulm

ings. Only II per cent have automa-

small number have fireproofing ele-
ments to lessen the fire hazard to the
children. At least twenty-five per cent
of the two poorest types of buildings
are of two or more stories and do not
have fire-escape. Thirty-nine per-
cent Of these two types are without
fire extinguishers, and less than ten
per cent of them have automatic
sprinkler equipment in any part of
the buildings. Only II per cent have
automatic fire alarms. Such facts as
these demonstrate the existence of a
real menace to the children of these
