SATURDAY JULY 49, 1922

Professor Morely's confidential
tone was comforting, TO be sure
Il, too, had paid too much attention
to my baseball team and other ac-
tiyities of the same sort and had
neglected my studies. Then just
as you have done, | realized that |

with my school studies satisfactor-
lily SO what'd do? | did not drop
the social activities entirely, nor

Can't you?"

after some very hard studying over
text books that | finally brought

SECRET CODES-HOW TO MAKE THEM

ginning of the alphabet The sew
enth letter will then be A and the
eighth is B. Therefore, B is the
first letter in your code message.
Proceed just like this to get the
next letter. The next one happens
to be H and The number above il
is z. You count forward 7 letters
from III and the letter you get is 0.
This makes the second letter of the
code. It's easy to finish up. When
you get through you have the fol
lowing succession of letters, writ
ten close together: "Bongomthcsm-
Doesn't
look like much of anything, does
it?
Deciphering a Message
Now if you nau received this
code message first, you would
have gone about solving it in much
the same way. You would number
the letters as you did in making
up the code, putting s shove B,
above o, and so on. Then you
would simply count back the num-
per or letters indicated. That is,
when B is 5 you count back
through A, y. Y, X, w, V, u, T,
The eighth letter is T, and this
is therefore the first letter of the
hidden message.
If some one gets hold of some of
your secret messages. and you are
afraid they may manage, if they're
clever enough, to get hold of your
key. it's a very simple matter to
change the code. You and your
partner merely change the key
numbers. Instead of 1921, you
might choose 46352 With this
change, the letters used in writing
he same message would be entire
y different
A code like this. where you can
make your own key, is an honest
o-goodness" secret

ELIZABETH WAVES ACTION
SAVED FORT TILL RELIEF

Five hundred Indians were at
lacking Fort Henry. which was
filled with women and children.
and there were only twelve men 10
defend it,
Every shot hit it's mark but the
ammunition was giving out "If
only we had that powder from the
powder-house," groaned the cap
tain.
"I'll get it." and before anyone
could stop her, out dashed Eliza
beth Vane. The Indians were so
surprised at the sight of her that
they stopped firing. 1t was not
until she was running back to the
fort with the precious box in her
hand that they realized what she
was doing, Then they fired but it
was too late, she was in the fort /!
Through the bravery of this lit
tie girl, the men were able to hold
out until a relief party reached
them.-Boys' and Girls Newspaper

Alike, But Different

When you speak do you say what
you wish to express? If you have
difficulty in this line it is well to
learn more words, words which in
general meaning are alike, but
which express different shades of
meaning.
The following are words of this
kind:
To Accomplish - Means to com
plete something one sets for him
self to do.
To Effect--Means to cause some
thing to be brought about as a re-
suit.
To Execute-Means to complete
something complicated in its nat
ure as to execute design
To Achieve - Means to bring
about a successful result to some
great or worthy enterprise by eff
fort.

Here is a code which has been
used in sending messages during
war Ii is not easy to solve, and
the fine thing about it is that it
can be changed in such a way as
to confuse any one who thinks he
has the key.
Let's pretend you are spy in
the camp of the enemy You have
managed to conceal a carrier pig
con to send a message back to the
side you are working for You
can't write this message out in
plain English, because there is too
much danger of the pigeon getting
into the hands of the enemy. So
you have a code that you have
agreed upon with the people with
whom you are working. You will
write the message in this code, in
very small letters, and fasten il
inside the wing of the pigeon,
Forming the Code
Suppose what you want to say
is: "The enemy are in full retreat
Strike now You go off to a place
where you can write out the code
message safely by yourself First,
you write down all the letters of
the alphabet in succession. Then
you write out the message which
you wish to put into the code Next
you put down the key numbers for
the code.
These key numbers may be any
In any order, just SO you
and the person you are working
with at the other end have clear
understanding as to what those
are. Let's suppose you've
decided on 1921 as the five mum
beTs for your key. You then write /
these numbers above the letters of
your message. Using the message
given above, the figure 8 goes over
he letter T, over Fl, 8 over e,
2 over e, and l over N. Then you
start in with the number success
on all over: over Il, over M,
md so on, repeating the numbers
Ibove the letters until you come to
he end of the sentences.
Making the Message
You are now ready to put your
Message into code. It's very sim
lie. Above the letter T you have
he figure g. You then count
etters of the alphabet from T, and
ou have the code letter. DO you
ee?
Take your pencil and point to the
etters of the alphabet which you
ave written out After It you
