lines of soldiers facing one another.

short stick or switch. The word
gauntlet" as here used. has not the
meaning usually given it-that of an
Iron glove-but is simply corruption
OF gantlope or gatlope, and is derived
from the Swedish gatlop, meaning

carry away dead or damaged wood for

to use an AK or saw but were SUD-
posed to pick up the loose branches

ACTION OF WATER ON FIRE
Just What Takes Place When the
Liquid is Employed for ouench-
ing Flames.

Practically. water thrown on a fire
browns out the blaze. Scientifically.
however. the water absOrbs so much of
the heat in the fire that the tempera-
tnre of the fire is lowered so that the
oxygen will not combine with the
carbon in the burning material and the
fire goes out.
1t is peculiar that water. which is
made of oxygen and hydrogen, will
put out fire which requires hydrogen
and oxygen before Ii will burn. This
is true, however. as the oxygen and
hydrogen composing the water already
have been burned or heated To high
temperature when they combined as
water, and so. as no substance or gas
that has been burned once can he
burned again, the combination of the
two gases in the form of water will
not burn when thrown on the fire.
To the contrary, the heat of the
burning fire is lowered by the water
so that the oxygen # the air cannot
combine with il and. lacking the
oxygen, the fire Is extinguished.-

contemplating the establishment Of co

full consideration:
Factors to Be Considered.
careful survey should be made tC
determine the adequacy of present
transportation facilities, the reason
ableness of the rates charged, the ap
proximate daily tonnage available for
movement in each direction, the char.
| acter of the roads over which the
trucks must be operated, and the gen.
eral sentiment of the community to-
! ward such an association. The dis
lance from market should not be more
than 40 miles, and there should be
sufficient volume of produce TO war
rant reasonably constant operation of
the trucks throughout the year.
1t having been concluded that the
cooperative enterprise will be a de-
cided advantage, only men who have
demonstrated their business ability in
handling their private affairs and who
exercise good influence among the
members Of the community should be
selected as directors. The secretary
should be q man with energy, tact,
business ability, and a high apprecia-
ton of the farmers interests. The
capitalization of the association should
be large enough to permit the issuance
of enough stock to pay for the trucks
in cash, to assure n sufficient amount
of cash on hand as working capital,
and TO have enough unissued stock to
provide for future sound extension of
the business. as well as a depreciation
fund to replace WORKOUT equipment
Make Service the Watchword.
The trucks should be selected only
after thorough and unbiased cOnsid-
Grafton of the various makes. Records
Of performance, of cost of operation
and maintenance. furnished by actual
operators Of trucks rather than by
agents of truck manufacturers, should
be carefully considered in the light Of
present and prospective needs of the
association.
In employing operators merit should
be the sole consideration. Rates should
be based on a careful analysis of COM
plete, adequate and accurate informa-
tiOn regarding costs. Accounting
methods should be simple but suffi-
GENTLY comprehensive to show the ex-
act financial status of the association
at all times.

What Produces Freckles.

Old Sol is the real freckle dispenser.
His rays, on their way to earth fall
alike on the just and the unjust and
so the just and the unjust have
freckles; that is, those who have skins
built for freckles-generally persons
OF fair complexion and hair. Some
people never have freckles because
their skin is not the same as that of
the freckled ones.
The action Of the sun on the skin
OF persons of light complexion causes
yellowish or brownish substance to
exude from the second layer of skin
and forms freckles. Some people
even have permanent freckles. but I'm
most people the freckles disappear
when the summer is ended and they
are bundled up in warm clothing when
out of doors -Philadelphia Ledger.

strong. Upon reflection. they decide it
was.
1t seems a cold-blooded thing to do,
this "scrapping" of the impotent, but
IL is the human way of doing things, Of
keeping up strength, productiveness
and ascendancy, so essential to growth
and progress.
Unlike battleships, men can retain
their power and capacity, and become
more capable as the years advance. To
those who keep rubbing off the rust,
there need be no fear of the scrap
heap.
But TO those who are indolent, mali
cious, inconsiderate of others, the
scrap heap is reaching out its scrawny
arms, certain of final embrace.
DO you think of these things, turn
sick at heart and hint that it does not
matter?
1t is good TO ponder, but please do
not think that 1T does not matter"
For 1t does matter. So there ought to
be no compromise with laxity or in
difference. Face about and see an
other skyline and different stars oyer
head. Hold fast all the while to hope!
Keep pressing with this boon COM
panion toward the hill-tops, keep in
tune with modern changes, keep young
In thought and in spirit, avoid vanities
on which life turns-and the scrap
heap will never get you.
