country would
never have attained its present
exalted place because most Of our
national leaders have been success
full primarily through thrift.
Thrift is no more the manifesta-
tion Of selfishness and small mind
edness than is success itself.
Thrift does away with waste. 1t
is careful planning and wise
spending. It is efficiency and
progress. Washington once ad-
vised a friend that "it is not the
lowest priced goods that are al
ways the cheapest" And in this
advice he reflected one Of the great
truths of thrift. Spend money
savingly. Save money sensibly.
It would not be possible to extol
too highly the simple virtue Of
saving. Since the dawn Of human
progress, it has been one Of the
most necessary Of all personal
practices. Every encouragement
should be given to those who are
saving. But the good work should
not stop there. It is somstimes
the better part Of thrift to spend
q dollar than to save it; and more
economical tb. purchase an article
for $40 than for S.. The right
kind Of spending keeps business
going, creates demand for labor,
builds up our cities and offers in
centive and reward for enterprise
and proficiency.
Unless we understand and prac-
tice all Of these things we do not
comprehend thrift.

Fist FIGHT Causes
A Ten Year Blank
I'm a Mans Brain

GAN DIEGO, CAL. Jan. 7~Jack-
son Ogburn, who came to police
headquarters with a request that
he be told where he was. has led al
adventurous life during the ten
years in which he says that his
mind has been complete blank.
Judging by records found in the To-
cal Identification bureau.
ogburn told Chief of Police James
Patrick that he was in a fight In
San Francisco in 1911 and remem-
bered nothing until he came to his
senses in Balboa Park. When he
came to the station he thought that
he was still in San Francisco and
that It was 1911 rather than 1921.
According to records in the iden-
tification bureau Ogburn, under the
name Of Roy Merrill. spent the
years from 1915 to 1920 in San Quen-
tin prison for assault to commit rob.
berry. while on October 4. 1920. the
sheriff Of Oakland sent out circulars
asking police to pick the man up.

BY previous measurements he had
ascertained that red stars emit more
than double the total radiation Of
the blue stars of the same visual

But by the use Of a new device
he was able to get the intensity OF
the ultra violet, visible and mira

heat was on the star itself. The
result shows that on the dog-star

One of the latest developments
Of life-saving apparatus is the gun
which can be fired from the
shoulder of a member Of the Coast
Guard crew. The newest type Is
one which throws a thin cord from
the gun to a distance Of a city
block. When a cutter Of the guard
is endeavoring to save the crew OF
q disabled vessel, and the heavy
seas prevent the ships from getting
near enough to rescue the men.
this gun shoots the line to the I'M
fortunate. 1t is pulled In rapidly
and pulls with 1t a HEAVIER cord
this in turn brings very strong
one which ends in a heavy hauser.
With this hawser made fast to the
ship, the vessel can then be towed
by the cutter to safety.
The credit of having brought
into existence a new breed 1T
domestic, fowl Is an honor which
can be justly claimed by H. NJ.
Lamon of the Department Of Agri-
culture.
Wishing to produce a breed Of
fowls which would combine the
shape, size and market qualities Of
the Dorkin and the best points
of the Plymouth Rock. he began
the experiment in 1912 at the
farm at Beltsville. Md. He also
tried to perpetuate the qualities
which tended to the laying Of white
eggs, as that color commands the
higher price in many cities.
For this purpose he selected a
male White Plymouth Rock and h
Silver Gray Dorkin. whose eggs
were very large and white. The
next year four hens Of this pair
were mated to q White Leghorn
cockerel. After this each year saw
no introduction of new blood but
the finest hens and males Of each
flock were chosen for the succeed
ing experiments. thus producing
each spring a more perfect bird.
Lannon'S" New Fowl.
Thus after many years Of patient
experiment the department was at
last able to claim q new breed IN
which Is combined q fine table
bird. an excellent layer and one
whose eggs would be the much
desired color-white. In honor Of
Mr.. Lamon, the new breed was Of.
ficially named the "Lamona."
To those who have connected
