SCOUT THINKS TELESCOPE
WILL Be SUCCESSFUL.

LONDON. Nov 23-Mars cannot
be brought TO within mile and half
Of the earth by the giant telescope
projected by Mr. Berali McAfce. in
the opinion Of Professor K. W. Wood
of Johns Hopkins University, who RE-
Gently visited London.
THE project IS by no means new"
he says 81 am convinced that such
an Instrument as that contemplated is
out OF The question.
The fact that observations are
limited to objects situated at or very
near the zenith is in itself sufficient
proof Of the impracticabiiity Of .,his
type of telescope.
ut viii be practically impossible to
avoid vibrations IN the case OF an in-
'strument Of large size and Mr.. Nc
Afce's plan 10 overcome the difficulty
by instantaneous exposures is quite
unsound, since The vibrations warp
the mercury surface and destroy the
sharpness Of the image an imperfec-
tion which is not remedied by employ
ing exposures Of very brief duration.
1T is practically certain that We
have reached the limit in regard TO
what is to be known Of the details OF
surface markings Of planets.

EXPERIENCE OF BEING
SOUGHT BY WOMEN IS
LOT Of GERMAN MEN
Women are in Great Majority
and Males Are in Position
of Demanding Nice Dowries.

BERLIN. Nov. 2S.-Q n. So
Berlin at the present time is the bach
elor's harvest.
Marriage advertisements have long
been a feature of the German newspa-
pers, but the last few months have
seen an extraordinary development in
this line.
The dearth of eligible husbands has
compelled would-be wives to leave no
stone unturned to achieve their desire.
and whole columns are now daily de-
voted to appeals of women in search
of husbands, setting forth their attrac-
tions. physical and financial.
Thus a fraulein adVertises:
"Twenty-six years old, fair, good
character, domesticated pleasant ap-
pearance. fortune and good dowry,
wishes to meet a man of good charac-
ter and industrious; purpose Of mar
riage."
Then comes:
well educated farmers daughter,
pretty, twenty-one. moderate fortune,
wishes to make love marriage"
Another young woman, bearing in
mind the prevailing house shortage,
says:
Girl of twenty-six, with her ow
home, wishes to marry"
The same lure is held out by a
'free-thinking, intelligent and domes-
tcated Jewess."
while there is life there is hope"
is apparently the motto Of "Catholic
widow, age fifty-nine, with noble
character and three rooms, seeks
husband"
Widows, mostly war widows, figure
largely in these columns. Some of
them, having no doubt had one expert
ence. are very particular as to their fu-
ture husbands. One, for instance,
wishes to marry small. slim man,
thirty-five to thirty-six years of age,
with brown eyes and hair" while an
other stipulates that "no Jews Poles
nor film artists need apply"
But the women are not the only
people who have seen the possibility

of the present situation. A large num-
Der of men recognize their value in the
marriage market and insert advertise
ments giving very little description Of
themselves but laying down very
clearly what they expect of their fu-
ture brides. Money, flats, good dispo-
sitions and handsome appearance are
always among the requirements. Their
intentions are always honorable" and
a photograph is invariably desired.
So that between the women who are
seeking the prizes in these days cf
male mumericaD inferioritv and men
who wish to benefit from that advan-
tage the advertising departments of
the newspapers are reaping a rich
harvest.

Say Mr. Lynch some time ago Tex
Rickard offered diamond belts to all
champions who defended their titles
and won three times, did he-not?
You an Pete Herman fought for
the bantamweight championship and
you were awarded the decision; also
the belt. Right?
The next time YOU started out
against Herman he made you look like
something the cat dragged in, d.d he
not? You lost your title and should
have handed the belt over to Mr. Her
man. Right?
A month ago little Johnny Buff, of
Jersey, slipped the champion, Mr.. Her
man. a pasting and won the bantam
title. Right?
johnny Buff is quite 4 sweet fight
er. The belt is his. He beat Jack
Sharkey the other night, tightening
his claim on the belt
You have the belt up in your furni-
ture store or some place, II isn't Your
belt. 1t belongs to Johnny Buff, and
if you were a sport at all YOU wouldn't
play the egg and keep it.
Boxing fans know that the belt
isn't yours, Mr. Lynch.
BE a good sport, hand that belt over
to Buff. and go out and fight for your
right to regain and keep it,
You will gain no friends by your ac-

Gypsy Smith, Jr., is Heard by
Thousands at Rock Hill
Meeting.

Rock Hill, Oct 1s.-The meeting
conducted by Gypsy Smith continu-
ing to draw large crowds and great
interest is being manifested. Mr..
Smith speaks with gripping style and
never fails to keep the interest of his
large crowds.
Sunday was considered one of the
hardest days that Mr.. Smith has had
since he came here. He preached to
the 1900 girls of Winthrop college
at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Again
at a o'clock in the large tent to more
than 1000 negroes of the city and
community. The negroes attended in
a body from the different churches.
At 8 that night Mr. Smith preached
one of the most forcible sermons to
a crowd that filled the large tent, es-
timated at at least 5000. -

difference is that the Westerner plows
on Sunday as he does on Monday. The
Southerner does not. He may not,
however, in many cases, be guided in
the least by religious scruples, but
by public opinion and tradition. That
is the whole idea in a nutshell.
The West has no traditions by
which to be guided and its public
opinion is not as safe and sanely
proper as that of the South.
On Sunday afternoon, driving
through the country to the "101
Ranch," l saw men driving mules
hitched to farm machinery, earning
their daily bread on the Sabbath. I
did not like. it. hope I never shall
get used to it. In so doing I would
lose my ideals.

Brunson School Open

We have about finished gathering
the shortest cotton crop ever gather
ed in this section. The boil weevil got
from 80 to 90 per cent and we got,
from 10 to 20 per cent, but the COTE
and potato and hog crops are good
But for this, we would have to hunt
another job, or join the army of un-
employed. If we can live through the
transformation period to the new
system of farming we will be better
off, but this is a question, how viii
we do it?

Printing Without Type.

The successful experiment Of pro-
ducing newspapers and periodicals by
means of photography instead of
printing, invoked during the print
ers' strike in America and England
some months ago, has led at least
three inventors to attempt to find
means for abolishing permanently
the metal-type method of publishing;
says the Londan Observer, in an in
teresting article in which it predicts
the ultimate discarding of papief
mache moulds, type-setting machines
and stereotype plates from the pub:
fishing business. Should the inventors
succeed, a machine not bigger than a
typewriter will replace the linotype,
and its product will be transferred
direct, OF almost direct, to the paper
sheet by photography.
Once a simple art, printing is now
one of the most complicated, In
yolving many different processes and
Devices" says the paper!
"To print newspaper one hundred
years ago, metal type as set
hand, was mixed, was pressed into
contact with paper and the sheet was
printed. Today the type is cast in
metal by one machine "a machine
that is almost capable of thought) Z;
from the metal type papier mache
mould it taken, and from that mould
the type is again cast in metal in the
form of a plate by another machine,
and from that plate the sheet is print
ed by third and very complicated
machine-at least, three machines in
stead of one and at least four prin-
cipal operations instead of two.
1t is not surprising that printing is
now very expensive affair compared
to what it used to be. All the i'm
provements of the last century have
been aimed at increase in output and
speed of production. They have sue
ceeded wonderfully, but they have
not made printing simpler-or bet
ter-mechanically, and generally
speaking, they have not reduced, but
increased the cost. Printing, in fact,
is not very complex and very costly.
Can it not be simplifed? 1t is believ-
ed that it can be done by photogra-
phy.-Columbia Record.
