Valparaiso Outdoor Elevators

Sailors attached to the United States fleet that is now cruising up the west coast of South America will find a familiar feature about the port of Valparaiso, in the event that their home town Is Pittsburgh or Cincin- natl. For the Chilean city has out grown the confines of the narrow sea- level strip along the water front and has scaled the heights aoove. There is the finer residential part of the city, and the citizens, like those of the Pennsylvania and Ohio cities just men, toned, reach the level or business ac- tivities by means of the many outdoor elevators or "ascensors." The waters of Valparaiso harbor are so deep that breakwaters have been built only with the greatest difficulty Instead of the ordinary blocks of concrete or stone, great hollow cement cubes, measuring 50 feet from corner to corner, are cast on shore, lowed into position, and sunk by filling them with stones. Such a breakwater Gulliver might have de scribed in his tale of the Brobding- nagians.

Phononranh Clock

Little clocks and big clocks, slow clocks and fast clocks, grandfathers and otherwise, take a back seat be- fore the twentieth century timepiece invention, just hot from the operating room. This clock speaks for itself" Neither dial nor hands appear; the works are contained in a neat oblong box. measuring 16 inches in height by 10 in width and 9 inches deep. A handle appears at the side for wind ing purposes. A voice record is car ried on a band of film, this band be- ing very similar to the standard mo- tion-picture film. A phonOgraph re- producer is used to translate the lat ent sound record into actual sounds. Precisely on the stroke of each quar- ter of an hour the voice announces the correct time in deep, bell-like tones. A hidden button, on being pressed, will cause the hidden voice to repeat the time; while another but ton quenches it's ardor very effec- lively.

IMPROVING SOIL
 BY COVER CROPS
They Add Rumus, Accumulate Nitrogen, Prevent Erosion and
 Loss of Plant Food.
RYE LARGELY USED r! Ft.'l
Problem Varies Largely With Locality, but 1t Is Best to Get Good Growth Before Freezing Weather-
 Methods Also Vary.

(Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 Planting cover or green manure crops is d matter which requires at tention in August or September in most parts of the United States, say experts of the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.
 Clover, vetch and other legumes serve the triple purpose of adding hu- mus to the soil, accommodating nitro gen and preventing soil erosion. With some tender berry and fruit crops they also serve to protect the roots from severe winter weather. Outside Of the nitrogen-fOrming plants, rye is largely used as a cover crop sown in the fall and plOwed under in the spring to add organic matter to the soil The cover-crOp problem varies largely with locality, but for over winter purposes there is one rule which Is universal, and that Is to get the crop in the ground in time to se- cure good growth before frost.
 A Practice of Long Standing.
 The use of clover or some other Iegume to enrich the soil Is generally considered a cardinal agricultural practice in the humid sections of the United States. It antedates by three quarters of a century the monumental discovery that legumes store up ni- trogen from the air. The belief that clover was a valuable improver rested first on experience, and later experi- ence was substantiated by the dis covery of the relation between the legumes and the nodule bacteria.
 Other legumes, as the COW pea, the Japan clover and bur clover in the South and crimson clover on the At lantic coast. have come into use in the

Three good-sIzed bedrooms and the bathroom open out of this hall, one room in front, another in the center of the building and a third at the back The plans show that both closets and wardrobes for modern wardrobe fit ting have been provided.

Maqnesium in Alloys.

Magnesium in massive form, as sticks or rods, is used to deoxidize other metals in foundries and is a con- stituent of alloys. More magnesium is now used as a deoxidizer or scav- enger in metallurgy than for any oth- CT purpose, but it's employment in al- Joys is increasing and may eventually become the largest one. An alloy of magnesium and aluminium is used in making castings for aircraft engines and parts of airplanes. The skeleton of the British airship R-34, the first dirigible to cross the Atlantic, is an alloy of aluminium and magnesium, and the yacht Resolute, the defender of the America's cup in the races in July, 1920, as we'll as the alternative defender the Vanite, carried gaffs made of this alloy.

Members of the American Legion, who served with the United States forces in France, will be called upon to give facts relating to Senator Watson's charge that American sol diers were shot and hanged in France without the formality of a court- martial. Secretary of War Weeks in a request to Commander Hanford MacNider for the Legion's coopera- tion said the War Department desired to proved or definitely refute the Georgia Senator's allegations. Lem uel Bolles, national adjutant of the Legion said he was sure the National Commander would cooperate.
 
 There is one officer to every seven men in the United States army, &C., cording to information received by the American Legion. It was OK palined by the War Department that the high proportion of officers was due to the present army policy of maintaining an army capable of quick expansion in time of war. The army today numbers 139,000 of which number 18,000 are officers.

 The first official act of Hanford MacNider, newly elected national commander of the American Legion, was his attendance at the Arnlistice Day ceremonies at Arlington as representative of the majority of ex-service men in the United States, He will remain at Washington dur ing the disarmament conference. MacNider's election has been approv- ed by Legionnaires everywhere. '11e is exactly the type of man we want to lead us", seems to be the nnani- nous comment! The impressive things about the new commander are that he went into the army 3 buck private and came out lieutenant colonel with II citations and nine decorations; that at the age of g he is head of large banking busi- ness in Iowa and that he is "Har- yard man without the Harvard s.c- cent" He has been hailed every where as a "real soldier"

 Flying a kite "to keep the wolf away from the door" is the occupa- tion of World War veteran who during the war flew an airplane in France. The veteran was jobless and the only work the American Le- zion Employment Bureau at Minuea- polls, Minn., could find for him was flying an advertising kite for film company.

WHY SEEK MOSS?
Writer Takes Issue With Old,
 WeII-Worn Pr0verb.
Keen RoIlinu Until a Good Place to Stop Is Found, Is Advice He
 Hands Out.

"The rolling stOne," we are impress sively told, gathers no moss But who suggests that moss is a desirable article to accumulate? Uncle Dudley writes in the Boston Globe.
 One of the penalties of being young is having it dingcd into our ears: You ought to settle down."
 When ought 1 to settle down? At eighteen? At twenty-five? At thirty five? If settling down. is taken to mean what it means on most lips one ought never to settle down at all. For on most lips settling down. means nothing more nor less than stale stag nation.
 Every intelligent reader knows that many, if not most, of lis luckiest finds have come while browsing along the book shelves. To be sure, one needs to know how to use a library; how to choose a topic and use catalogues and indexes to dig up the material. But there is something to be got by per sonal contact with the book shelves which no catalogue can give. You wan der along, plucking down now this volume, now that. That one Is mild ly entertaining; this one is dull; an other might be valuable, when . Hellol Here 1t isl :. Every page emblazoned as with letters of gold ; and the day on which you discovered it was one of the high days.
 There are a few fortunate people whose natur; bents are so pronounced that they know at quite an early age exactly what they wish to do as life work. But such people are relatively few.
 Do they tell you that 1t Is impor- tant to get your life work started early? It Is far more important to find the life work which you were meant to do, whether you find 1t early or late. One ought never to be so settled down that he cannot take up a new kind of work if he is convinced that 1t is more valuable to himself or to the community than the kind he is in; convinced, in short, that 1t pro- vdes a better outlet for his powers.
 The spectacle of a man or woman tied for life to the wrong mate is not half so pitiable as the spectacle of a man or woman tied for life to the wrong job.
 The father who says to the son in his teens or early DOS, Tt is high time you made up your mind what you are going to dO," is as ridiculous as a phy. sician telling baby it is high time he went out for the football team. Ir ! ones teens or twenties it is, to be sure, high time one is busy and active about some sort of productive labor but to suggest that the job at this age should be ones permanent choice is ruinous folly. It may prove to be the very thing, but if it should not, one will want an emergency exit
 Does it ever occur to us that the hope of the world lies mainly in just these untamed spirits who refuse tC settle down?

 Every man who intends to build a home for himself and his family takes into consideration, when he Is select ing the design, what the needs of him. self and the others of his household will be. For a doctor, or any other pro- fessional man whose office Is In his home, the house must be so designed that 1t will be suitable for his busi- ness as well as to provide a dwelling place for his family.
 This Is especially true with doctors. The average doctor, especially in the smaller cities and rural communities, has specified office hours, and his of- flee usually Is in his home. That was the purpose in providing an office on the first floor of the home shown in the accompanying illustration. Here is located at the rear of the house, and adjoining the entrance next to the garage, good-sized room that has been designated "offlce." This room Is con- veniently located for visitors, who do not have to go through the house to get to the office; in fact, the business transacted there need not interfere
