OLD FABLES ARE
 ACCEPTED AS TRUE

The famous Damascus blades that were fabled to cut iron bars in two were not superior to the Toledo blades of the present time.
 Seneca was not a half-Christian philosopher, but grasping money lender, and died leaving fortune equivalent to three million dollars.
 Charles TX did not fire upon the Huguenots with harQuebus from the window of the Louvre during the massacre of St. Bartholomew.
 The Maelstr0m Is not whirlpool which sucks ships down into the depths of the ocean. It is an eddy, which in fair weather can be crossed in safety by any vessel.
 Horatius never defended the bridge. It was story manufactured by the same Roman historian who put forth that other fabrication of history that Micius Scaevola put his hand in the fire.
 Pitt never made the celebrated re- ply to Walpole beginning. ''The atrocious crime of being young man." It was composed by Doctor Johnson, who was not even present when the actual reply was spoken.
 Alfred the Great did not visit the Danish camp disguised as a minstrel. There is excellent authority for assert ing that he could neither play the harp nor speak Danish. He did not let the cakes burn, either, as history records.
 The hanging gardens of Babylon did not hang and they were not gardens. They were terraces supported by arches and overgrown trees. They were erected for the amusement of a Babylonian queen who had come from mountainous country.
 Pocahontas, the Indian princess, did not save the life of Capt. John Smith by standing between him and club held by her father or by any other method. It is now considered but a romantic yarn spun by Captain Smiths imagination and perpetuated by the historians.
 Hannibal did not send three bush- els of gold rings taken from the hands of the Roman knights killed on the field of Cannae back to Carthage as evidence of his victory The fact was as follows: The messenger who car ried to the Carthaginian senate the news, on finishing his report opened his robe and threw out number of gold rings gathered on the field."- Dearborn Independent.

Mark Twain as a Typist.

Mark Twain appears to have been the first distinguished author to pur- chase a typewriter, and letter typed by him to W. D. HOwells on Decem- Der 9, 1874-the very day the machine reached him--is still extant.
 "I don't know," he tells him, whether I am going to make this typewriting machine go or not; that last word was intended for n-not; but guess l shall make some sort of a success of 1t before I run it very long. l am so thick. fingered that miss the keys. You needn't answer this. am only practicing to get three - another slip-up there; only practicing to get the hang of the thing I notice l miss fire-get in good many unnecessary letters and punctua- ton marks. l am simply using you for target to bang at.

The volcanoes Of Hawaii. whether dead or alive, are working for, or are going to be made to work for the peo- pie. Honolulu has just tapped the extinct crater of Pablo, overlooking the city, and Is getting therefrom 100000 gallons of drinking water daily. Hilo, on the island of Hawaii, is raising fund to tap the active vol cano Kilauea, and utilize the tre- mendous volume of gases there for iD. dustrial and other purposes. Scien- lists say that pentup volcanic gases have limitless possibilities from an industrial and power standpoint, while they also. contain all the food elements necessary to sustain the<hu- man body-carbon, nitrogen, hydro gen and lime-Denver Times.

Turks Without Fear of Death.

One of the reasons the Turks used to be such good soldiers was because contempt for life is the essence of the faith for which they fought. "Divinely calm" are words that have been em- ployed to describe the profound and complete resignation to the will of Allah which is an integral part of the Mohammedan faith. The pious Mo hammedan has ever present in his mind the end of earth and the begin ming of life beyond. The Turk is said to consider himself as an individual camped in the world. as his nation has so long been camped in Europe. And he considers the joys of life only shadows in comparison with the ever lasting delights which await him in paradise

Profiteers Forced to Build.

Switzerland has found new use for war profits. The Swiss who reaped an excess profit during the war can get an abatement of taxes if he will invest his surplus in residential hous
 ing under official regulation. The regulation guards against unsghtly and insanitary building. It also re- stricts rentals to yield only fair re-
 turn on the investment. If the war profiteer does not care to put his easy money into this useful channel of pub lie service at fair return, the state takes a large part of it from him and itself subsidies the building of homes

ing profession and the teachers sal ary. He showed the great need of better trained teachers with higher ideal of professional ethics. He point ed out that the low salary of teach CTS was largely due to the lack of these two qualifications in great majority of teachers. Dr. Evenden Is recognized as the reading authority in the United States on the question of teachers salaries, having made an intensive survey of this subject in 1917 which was given wide publicity by the National Education associa- tion and was extensively used in the campaign for higher salaries for teachers. On Wednesday night Dr. Evenden's subject was The Teachers Friends. While here Dr. Evenden is conducting class in elementary school supervision. ....
 The transfer men have had busy week hauling trunks to and from the station. Students who did not stay for the summer term began leaving Thursday afternoon while the new students were permitted to enter the dormitories on Friday.
 Governor Campbell made short visit to the campus Tuesday morning. He said before leaving that his son, Brodie, would be here the latter part of this week to spend the rest of the summer on the campus and do some work in school.
 During the few days vacation pre- ceding the opening of the summer term, several of the teachers took the opportunity for little outing. Many of them enjoyed the scenery in Oak Creek Canyon, while others enjoyed the fishless fishing at Mormon Lake.
 The surfacing of the streets will be completed within a few days and ev- eryone driving out our way is rejoic- ing that he can get his car on and off the campus without greatly leopard izing either his life or his car. The tennis courts will also be completed by the latter part of the week, much to the enjoyment of all the students.
 Professors Carpenter and Eastburn, who have charge of the athletics dur ing the summer, have organized two baseball teams, one composed of the University students and the other composed of Normal and high school students. When these two teams get to playing in Al form they expect to be able to pick winning combin- ation to challenge the crack town team. They are also contemplating volley ball and basket ball tourna- ments as we'll as putting on track meet between the two sections.

GENEVA, A CITY
 FAMOUS IN HISTORY

Geneva, the seat of the League of Nations, witnessed some fierce fight ing in the days when the duke of Savoy sought to destroy it's independ- ence with the aid of contingent of Spanish troops.
 These mercenaries tried to rush the defenses at dead of night, but though some of them managed to get into Geneva. not one of them managed to get out again. Those who were not killed in action were afterward be- headed.
 They still preserve at Geneva seal ing ladders captured from the Span- iards on that memorable night, to- gether with the caldron out of which a Genevan housewife, who had risen early to prepare her husbands break fast, poured deluge of scalding soup on to the heads of the enemy troops.
 Another relic preserved at Geneva recalls the little band of exiles who worked together there at the tranCla- ton of the Scriptures, known as the Geneva Bible.
 On the eve of their departure for England trey went in body to the city fathers. who gave them, as the records show. honorable license to depart. together with a testimonial of the satisfaction we have had in them, and an exhOrtation to act in their turn toward foreigners as we have acted toward them" Then they all wrote their signatures in the "Livre des Anglais,' or Book of the English, which is carefully treasured in the Geneva archives.
 Though Geneva for some hundreds of years has been a sovereign republic, much of the architectural beauty of the modern town Is directly due to the generosity of one-time reigning prince, Charles II, duke of Brunswick Wolfenbuttel.
 The duke. who was born In 1907. sue ceeded at an early age to the throne, and governed so arbitrarily and cruel ly that his subjects appealed to the German diet. which. after some nego- tiation deposed h,m and placed his younger brother on the throne. After this Duke Charles, who was very wealthy, wandered about Europe. mak- ing Paris his headquarters. On the outbreak of the Franco-Prussiah war, in 1870, he finally settled at Geneva, where he died in 1873.
 He had been an exne from his own iand for more than thirty years, and If he ever had had any affection for 1t. it had perished during that time; so he constituted the city of Geneva his heir. His will was disputed by his brother and successor, Duke William, who demanded the family jewels and other treasure.
 Before the case came into the courts the duke agreed to compromise and the city came in for legacy worth about four million dollars. This sum, or a considerable portion of 1t, has been spent in beautifying the town, building the quays and the elaborate Brunswick monument

That dog went everywhere Tradwind did. He was so smart he'd follow Tradwind into a saloon and, after his master had taken six drinks, would nip him on the calf of the leg as . warning that 1t was time to go home. Do you wonder that Tradwind erected monument to that fainthful brute when he died" "No, don't" said the travelling salesman.

Selling Human Bones.

The keeper of public cemetery of small Bohemian town near Prague excavated the older parts of the grave yard. and sold all the old bones he could find for industrial purposes, as he found that certain manufacturers paid more for human bones than for those of animals. He had been earn ing money in this way for several years before he was detected and sus- pended from the post.

The enrolment in the University section is slightly over two hundred while in the Normal school it is over three hundred. When the number of duplicates is subtract ed the net enrolment will be in the neighborhood of four hundred stu dents. The dormitories are all full and nine cottages are now occupied and several students are waiting for more cottages to be put up. The din- ing hall is feeding 275 students while many are living in town. The feder- al board has thirty-six ex-service men enrolled in the University. Class work started Tuesday and the janitors are kept busy hunting chairs to seat the unusually large classes.
