Admiral line for service on the Pacific.

The Northern Pacific was built In

American Time Signals Best.

The English freely admit that the
system of Geographic time signals
adopted by the naval observatory at
Washington is much to be preferred to
that in use at Greenwich for supplying
Great Britain with standard time.
At Greenwich O signal is sent out at
noon, whereas at Washington a series
Of signals is used, beginning five
minutes before o During these
five minutes every tick of the observa-
tory clock Is electrically transmitted,
except the twenty-ninth second of each
minute, the last five seconds of the
first four minutes, and at last ten
seconds of the fifth minute. After this
final ten seconds break, the neon
signal is given. In this manner the
middle Of each minute Is clearly in
dictated, and yet nor clearly the in
slant of noon. The length of the
series facilitates the regulation Of
clocks and chronometers.

But Is II Worth III

This is a remedy Of an English
woman for taking off supertiuous
ounces from the face that has be-
come too fat through %overeatirg and
lack of. exercise.
To begin with, of course, she rec
ommends mild dieting and plenty OF
walking and lots of water to drink
every day. This to cut down super
fuous fat all over the body.
One good exercise is this: Open
the mouth and work the jaw vigor-
ously, first to the right, then to the
left, then backward, then forward.
Do this persistently.
Then draw the cheeks in between
the teeth and puff them out hard and
full. Then, with the teeth shut tight,
stroke the cheeks with the palms Of
the hands gently upward from the
chin tip to forehead. Don't do any
of the stroking exercises too rapidly
or vigorously, but do them for a long
time, persistently, slowly. You will
get the best results in this way:

FAMOUS 4LIoN OF LucERNE"
Thorvaldsen's MASTERPIECES Comment
crates the Heroism of the Swiss
Guards in Paris in 1892.

The well-known monument called
the Lion of Lucerne," erected near
Lucerne, in 1921, commentaries the
tragic fate of the Swiss guards in the
French Revolution when in their de-
votion to duty they were sacrificed to
the bullets of the Marseillais and the
pixies Of the mob, August 10, 1892.
This infantry regiment, the "Gardas
Suisses," had been originally a Swiss
m~ercenary regiment in the Wars Of
Religion; but for their W good con-
duct at the combat OF Argues they
were Incorporated in, the permanent
establishment Of the Maison du Roi,
by Henry w, (Henry of Navarre), In
1889, and in the guards in 1913. Inc
French guards sided openly with the
constitutional movement at the ReVo-
luton, and were disbanded, but the
Swiss guards Remained faithful to
their trust.
This monument was the work OF
Bertel Thorvaldsen (~1770-1S44), a
Danish sculptor, noted for his statues
of Christ and the apostles, and for
his efforts at classical sculpture. He
was the son of an Icelander who had
settled in Denmark, and was born at
Copenhagen. There he lies buried UNI
der a bed Of roses in the. courtyard
of the museum he endowed.

Fifty Men and One Elephant.

Interesting tests were nee made to
determine the respective pulling pow
er of horses, men and elephants. Two
horses, weighing LOGO pounds each,
together pulled $3.50 pounds, or $50.
pounds more than their combined
weight. One elephant, weighing 10000
pounds, pulled $3.50 pounds, Or $3.50
pounds less than his weight. Fifty
men, aggregating about 1900 pounds
in weight, pulled $3.50 pounds, or Just
MS much SIS the single elephant. But.
like III %..lorses. they pulled more than
their own weight. One hundred men
pulled 1000 pounds.

GOES BACK TO OLD EGYPT
Legend of Cinderella, Almost Uni
yersaI, Believed to Have Come
From Ancient Memphis.

Cinderella and the legend surround
ing her glass slipper is believed to
have originally come from ancient
Memphis. In the ruins of this buried
city lies the pyramid of Rhodopis, who
lived at Naucratis. and was incom-
parably beautiful and chaste. One day
when Rhodopis was bathing an eagle
flew Though the open ceiling Of her
bathroom and plucked from her maids
hands the sandal which she was just
about to lace about her mistress
foot.
The eagle then flew to Memphis,
where the king was administering JUS
tice in one of the courts Of the palace,
and, lowering above the king dropped
the sandal, which fell into the folds Of
the kings garment. He examined the
sandal and found it so small and love-
ly that he babe his servants search all
Egypt till they should find the woman
whom it would fit.
Rhodopis was found in Naucratis
and carried to the king, who married
her. She died after q few months
happiness, and the disconsolate king
had one of the costliest pyramids of
antiquity built in her memory. In the
first century B. G. the priests OF Mem
phis were wont to exhibit a sandal in
a crystal shrine which, they declared,
once belonged to Rhodopis, miraculous
" preserved through many centuries.
The sarcophagus and the mummy OF
Rhodopis have entirely vanished and
her pyramid is little more than a ruin,
but her legend lives in every land.

OUR SPLENDID SCHOOL SPIRIT.
Superintendent

Unlike any former session of the
Edgeheld. school for a number of
years, the session of 1922 is char
sacterized by a splendid school spirit
which seems to permeate the very at
mosphere of the campus. AS a nat
ural result of this school spirit which
gives a buoyancy to school life that
nothing else can, there exists a
marked degree of loyalty toward the
members of the faculty and a spirit
of comradeship prevails among the pu
pills themselves which dissipates the
monotony of routine school life, caus-
ing the pupils to find much real joy,
;as we'll as profit in their school du-
ties.
There are this session, two out
standing features of III school work
which doubtless contribute more than
anything else to this school spirit.
Reference is here made to our liter
airy society and to our school athlst-
les. The meetings of the literary So
ciety not only afford a field for the
exercise of the literary talents of the
pupils, but it's informal meetings
composed solely of pupils, bring them
into personal contact and afford an
opportunity of social intercourse
under the most helpful and whole
some environment. The fact that it
