JET is AN OLD-TlME FAV0RITE
Julius Caesar Alludes TO the Abund-
ance Of Mineral in Brit
ain.

No one knows when Jet first came
into use. 1t has been used since be-
fore historic times and was common
In the bronze age. from which times
have come Jet beads, buttons. rings,
armlets and other ornaments. Julius
Caesar alludes TO the abundance of
jet in Britain, and jet ornaments are
found with Roman relics in them. The
monks used jet for rosary beads AZ
Whitby abbey (England) and ut Whit
ney, where it was found in the greatest
abundance. 1t occurs in Irregular
masses in hard shale known as jet
rock Often microscopic examination
discloses coniferous wood In the com
position OF jet. 1t is probable that Jet
was developed when masses Of wood
drifted down the river. rotted or be-
came water-logged and sank out at
sea, becoming gradually buried in n
deposit Of the mud, which hardened
eventually into shale. Sometimes drops
Of bitumen are found in jet cavities,
which seems 10 more or less confirm
the suspicion OF its wood origin.

FOOTBALL WORK
/ NOW STARTING
CANDIDATES FOR ALMA HIGH
TEAM START THEIR WORK
OUTS TO-DAY.

Football workouts at Alma High
School are getting under way today
and Coach Carlson will be forced to
push his charges from now on until
the opening contest of the season
with Saginaw on September % if the
aggregation is TO be ready for such a
hard battle as this one has the prom
ise of being.
Just what kind of an aggregation
of football tossers the locals will have
is somewhat questionable at the
present time. Six or seven old men
are expected to be fighting for places
on the eleven, but this will leave
several vacancies that Carlson will be
forced to fill from among the reserves
of last year and the new material
that has come into the high school
this year. There are holes on both
the line and the backfeld that must
be plugged effectively if the Alma
clan is to make a good showing on
the grid.
One welcome thing in football is
the presence of bunch Of good look
ing material, but it is too early to
get any idea of the capabilities of
these men as yet, however. Some of
these fellows are tall and rangy and
Of considerable weight so that it is
very possible that the eieven this year
will be heavier than the one of a
year ago.
Tuesday afternoon Coach Carlson
gave the football candidates talk
and told them what he would expect
of the men this year, and Wednesday
after school the football suits and
material was passed out to the men
so that they would be all ready to get
under way with their workouts to-
day.

Socrates Boosts Music.

The Greeks were wise in regard to
the educative value of music. Socra-
ties, for example, takes high ground in
saying that music is gift of the gods
TO men and women and was never in
tended, "as the many foolishly and bias
phemously suppose" merely to give
an idle pleasure. He also traces nost
suggestively the connection between
license In music and anarchy in the
state.
Musical training is more potent
instrument than any other because
rhythm and harmony find their way
into the inward places of the soul,
on which they nightly fasten, i'm
parting grace and making the soul
of him who is rightly educated grace
full. While he praises it into his soul,
and becomes noble and good. he will
justly blame and hate the bad.

Bite of Gila Monster.

Authorities differ as TO the deadli.
ness of the bite of the ella monster
says Natural History, but no really
authentic case of human death from
this source has been forthcoming. The
poison is fatal, but it seems that the
animal Is unprovided with means of
ejectlng 1t; the glands are in the un.
der side of the mouth, imperfectly
connected with the teeth, and, as DR.
Leo Loeb points out, liquids won't
flow uphill. One ella monster was
adopted as playfellow by five
year-old girl, and never offered TO bite
her; another, after being safely
handled by museum attendant for a
year, inflicted the worst bite on record
but the man recovered. The poison
seems generally TO be wiped off before
Ii can enter the wound.
