Intelligence Tests.

Are you intelligent? If so, the fol
lowing n,ental exercises will gauge the
extent. Get somebody to take out his
watch and tell him when a minute has
expired. OF course, you must not resort
to any such dodge as counting the sec
onds. And you must talk, and be
talked to, during the test. If you
guess the very second the first time
you are a wonder. Three seconds
short was the most nearly correct first
attempt among our acquaintances.
Thirty seconds short was the worst at
tempt. The mistake is nearly always
on the same side-the guessers think
the minute is up before it is. An
other excellent test is: Not looking at
your watch, hold it to mirror, and
from the face of the watch reflected
therein try to tell the time. 1t sounds
easy, but it isn't.

The seismouranh.

There is little instrument-or per-
haps it's big one; at any rate, it is
little in comparison with its job-that
has field all its own and that knows
not sentiment. Its scientific name is
the "seismograph." When gigantic
cataclysm in the earth's crust over
whelms some city and sends thou
sands homeless into the fields, it re-
cords the fact with mercilessly cold
methodicity. At such times it is alb
solutely inhuman in its devotion to
the bald scientific. 1t worries about
the cause of disaster; bothers itself
not whit about effect. Then, having
exhibited its callousness, it goes to
sleep, perhaps has conscience-smit-
ten dream and suddenly wakes up to
prove to us all, or some of us, that we
have wholly unsupported cause for
thankfulness In this mood it's about
the only thing on earth able and will
ing to impart that impossible piece OF
knowledge-what we missed.

FLAG MADE MANY JOURNEYS
Emblem Finally Planted by Peary at
the North Pole Had Undergone
Some Vicissitudes.

The flag which Peary planted at the
North pole, and which has drifted 400
miles from its original geographical
position. has done more travelling in
high attitudes than any other ever
made. The intrepid explorer carried
it wrapped about his body on every
one of his expeditions northwards,
and left a fragment of it at each of
his successive ''farthest norths." By
the time it actually reached the pole,
therefore, it was somewhat worn and
discolored. A broad diagonal section
of this silk ensign was left at the
farthest goal of earth, and a diagonal
strip of the same flag was deposited
in glass bottle by Peary, together
with his records and message. and
was placed in space between the ice
blocks of a pressure ridge.
-Four other flags were left at the
pole; the colors of the Delta Kappa
fraternity, the Worlds Ensign of Lib
erty and Peace cred, white and blue,
in a field of white), the flag of the
Navy league. and the Red Cross flag.
All that Peary had left of the North
pole flag was flying at the masthead Of
the Roosevelt when 1t brought Peary
safely back from his journey to the
little town of Sydney, Cape Breton,
whittier he had returned so many
times before, but unsuccessful.

mupEnN INVENTIONS.

One of the curious features about
tie most modern of modern inventions,
the airplane and the wireless tele-
graph, is that they are most in de-
mand in lands which hitherto have let
the world of progress and invention
pass by unheeded. The nomad in the
deserts of Arabia, who never saw
railway, today takes an airplane as
matter Of course, whilst inland China,
which in all other respects is much as
it was 5000 years ago, is eager for
the erection of wireless stations. The
last country to be brought into the
great ambit is Greenland, says Chris
tian Science Monitor. Greenland, dur
ing the winter months, is cut off from
the rest of the world, but when the
Danish government has carried out its
present scheme for the erection in
Greenland of a radio station capable
of communicating direct with Den
mark, the good people of Godhavn will
be as much in the world, as far as
news is concerned, as the good people
of Copenhagen.

SIMON BOLIVAR.

Simon Bolivar, the liberator, has
been called the South American Wash
ington. The careers of the two we're
similar in many ways. Each was a
leader in freeing American soil from
European overlordship. Each gave
himself high-mindedly and unselfishly
to the cause of American independ-
ence. Each struggled against. enor-
nous discouragements. Each had his
Valley Forge. Bolivar was driven from
Caracas as Washington was driven
from New York to Philadelphia. Each
eventually became the head of the new
nation he had created (in Bolivar's
case more than one nation) and each
filed continent with his fame, says
New York Tribune. Bolivar alone
ended his life in bitterness and dis
illusionment, dying an exile from
Venezuela and saying on his deathbed,

Though Austria today is a mere
patch compared with the former en-
pire, the old government machine,
which was probably overstaffed even
in Hapsburg days, still exists. AL
though the country is bankrupt and
the presence of the army of useless
functionaries makes almost any at
tempt at rehabilitation hopeless, the
officials are determined to stick. Aus
trians recognize the absurdity of the
situation, but they do not know how
to get rid of the traditional bureaus,
says San Francisco Chronicle. In a
lesser measure every government has
experienced this difficulty. Let bu-
reau get established and it is easier
to move mountains than to root 1t out.

Since the war closed Bolshevist
theory has undergone radical change
II has been found that an Utopian
brotherhood is impossible and that
communism is the forerunner of chaos,

alcRe, can national progress be made
and national security maintained.
Russia's bitter experience through vio-

How Diseases Are Spread.

Many OF the diseases that afflict man
may almost be said to be made by him,
says the United States public health
service, for they are spread almost al
together by his disregard of the sim
pfest rules of sanitary living.
Typhoid fever, for instance, is
spread by the contamination of water,
milk and food by human filth which
has been run into rivers or wells Or
left exposed for flies to carry to the
kitchen or dining room, or which even
more disgustingly, is carried to food
directly from soiled hands,

Gas Field Uncovered

New Orleans, LA natural gas
field with tremendous production po-
tentiaiities" has been uncovered in
Northern Louisiana, according to re-
port made public Sunday after an in
yestigation by engineers of the United
States bureau OF mines, conducted for
the state on request Of Governor Par
ker.
A productive area of 212 square
miles, or roundly $4,000 acres in a
solid block located in Union, Ouachita
and Moorehouse parishes, near the city
of Monroe, and designated as the Mon
roe gas field, is outlined in the report.
The report estimates that the total
amount of gas remaining in the reser-
voir is roundly four trillion and seven
hundred and fifty billion cubic feet, or
80 cubic miles, calculated at eight
ounce pressure above atmosphere. with
indications that the volume is much
greater because the limits of the field
had not been fully determined at the
tine the investigation was concluded.
