United Power Companies at Abilene
Force Thrift on Employees.

Abilene, Kan July 10.-Setting the
pace among companies encouraging g
thrift for their employees, the Asso-
ciated companies, with headquarters
here. has inaugurated thrift plan
for their 1000 to 1900 workers.
The idea was originated by C. L.
Brown, president of the United Tele-
phone Co., with sixty exchanges, and
general manager of the United Light
and Power System that furnishes cur
rent to sixty-five towns and over 500
farms, of central and southwest Kan
sas, reaching from Larned to Seneca.
He has worked out plan by which
he will assist his employees, and at the
same time insists that they save or
they will not retain their positions.
He has placed the minimum saving at
10 per cent of the income.
Along with this goes an educational
campaign against fake stocks, promo
ton stocks and speculation of every
form. THE idea is that we can de-
velop a sound investing spirit and
teach the average man and woman
how to secure sound securities" said
Mr.. Brown. THE best employe is the
it relieves the fear of poverty, makes
possible the buying of a home and
altogether lifts the morale of the
worker.
I'VE expect to help our employees
carry 1t thru; the committee in charge
will advise and assist in every way.
Emergencies such as sickness in the
family will be considered in individual
cases Our workers themselves are
protected by our sick benefits. accident
policies and life insurance"

IT RUNS UP HILL
Water Made To Lift Itself Thru
st. Louis Mans Test.
Experiments L in Hydraulic
Pressure Seem To Be Success.

London, July 10.-A water-liftins
apparatus which seems to flout the
natural law that water cannot run up
hill. and by which the tremendous
energy of the rising tides may be har-
messed for use by man. is an invention
of Thomas C. Allen, graduate of
Washington university, St. Louis, and
now a British subject.
The ''hydrautomat," as the appa-
ratus is called, is the result of two
years of experiments. A working
model has been viewed by Nscores of
engineers, some of whom have been
baffled by the simplicity of the cycle
of operation 1t has lifted water
twenty feet above the river level
The hydrautomat is designed to
raise water in any quantity from
running stream to any desired height
without the use of standard equip
ment such as pumps. rams or water
wheels. The apparatus harnesses two
natural sources of energy, the weight
of a column of water and atmospheric
pressure.
BY means of a series of tanks. one
above the other. and a sluice gate.
which alternately brings suction and
pressure forces into play, 80 per cent
of the energy of the pressure water
used is obtained. The height required
is reached by carrying the series OF
tanks, alternating open and closed
chambers.~together with air conduct
ing pipes, to the desired height.
It is believed there is unlimited
scope for the hydrautomat on streams
where hydraulic power developments
are not feasible because of the small
amount of fall. One of the first ap-
plications is expected TO be on irriga-
tion projects.
In a broad sense. according to the
inventor. the purpose of the hydrau-
tonat is to convert the contained en-
crSy of large quantities of water at
low head into that of a smaller
quantity of water at a high head. or
TO compel a stream to hoist part of
itself up over the land for CONNER
cial or agricultural purposes. The
principal is fixed: the application is
to be determined by local require
il1nrlfs

A new ATHLETIC FIELD
School Board Plans Construction on
East Tenth Avenue.


East Tenth Avenue.
BY a decision made at a recent
meeting of the board of education,
the Topeka schools will have a large
athletic field and an Alamo in the
next twelve months. A contract was
closed for thirteen acres of land on
East Tenth avenue south of the Park
dale school.
Topeka has long been tagging in
athletic facilities for its public schools,
but with the completion of the new
athletic field We will have the best in
Der of the board.
The athletic field will be laid off for
baseball, football, tennis and track
contests. A gymnasium will be built
on the grounds and there may be a
swimming pool The field is to be
ready for use in time for the football
season a year from this fall.
Plans are also being considered for
erecting a new school building for
the Parkdale district after the Cali
foTnia Alamo style. This style of
building is considered the most prac-
teal and beautiful by school authori-
ties on the Pacific coast, according to
James Mullin, president of the board
of education, who recently returned
from California.
The new Boswell school was named
in honor of the late L. M. Penweh who
was a member OF the board of educa-
ton for many years and at the time
of his death was president of the
board. PenwelI school will probably
be ready for use when the spring
school term opens next January.

KANSAS WOMEN DO IT

st. Louis guide lost his way completely
in an effort to find Washington uni

a point eight miles outside the city

OKLAHOMA HARvEsTERs IN.

money with which to buy railroad
tickets.
Since the strike railroad agents have
been particularly dihgent in forbid

of men desirous of coming from Kan

COMMITTEE
PLANS REVISION Of
TRANSPORTATION ACT
After Strike Is Over Likely
Provide Penalties to AS
siSt the Board.

|, Washington, July 15.-Hearings will
be held soon by the senate interstate
commerce committee TO initiate revis-
ion of the transportation act and deal
with problems developed by the pres
ent strike. Chairman Cummins stated
Saturday. The first effort of congress,
Senator Cummins said, probably would
be to adjust the law SO as to guarantee
a fair living wage to railroad workers.
Later, but probably not during the pres
ent strike. he said. an effort would be
made to provide penalties for violation
of orders Of the railway labor board.
Senator Cummins, who had a long
conference Friday evening with Presi-
dent Harding said he was convinced
that amendment of the transportation
act in these respects was necessary.
He said the committee hearings. which
will be designed TO secure all possible
aid in drafting a new formula on rail
road dages, would begin soon but would
not interfere with the present strike
negotiations. The committee chair
man did not believe possible that the
.amendatory legislation could be disposed
of soon enough to be a factor in the
present strike. his thought being that
corrective legislation would prevent flu
ture troubles.
The men undoubtedly are entitled
to a guarantee of n living wage. mas
