Oceans Levels Changed.

It Is the belief Of scientists that,
during the glacial period, when the
land was covered with huge coats Of
Ice, the level of the ocean was from
$50 to 200 feet lower than its normal
level, according to DR.. T. w. Vaughan
Of the United States geological survey.
This belief Is based upon the theory
that what goes up must come down,
and scientists are able to account for
the presence Of ice on the land only
on the supposition that it came from
the sea.
Proof of this is found in coral reefs
in all parts of the world. Their posi-
ton indicates that the building was
commenced in the shallow waters OF
the then coast line, only to have the
waters rise. The little animals which
create the reefs kept on building
toward the new level. Many of the
reefs, it has been observed, have been
built on submarine shelves, and these
are invariably found on coasts which
show signs Of having once been sub
merged.

OBJECTED TO BEING BRoILED
Lobster's Emphatic Views on the Sub.
ject Led to Change Of Menu
in Household.

A friend of mine is very fond OF
lobster, but, like many men, has nc
idea how such food is prepared. His
vito had occasion to be absent from
home one day last week and she told
the servant girl to broil lobster for
my friends dinner. She left a note,
telling her husband of the treat she
had provided for him and requesting
him not to wait dinner for her. He
was quite hungry when he reached
home and. after reading the note, said
to the servant:
us that lobster ready?'
mo, sir, it isn't" said the girl.
swell, hurry up with it. I'm as
hungry as a BEAR" said he.
II can't, SIR" said the girl. "The
mistress said to broil the lobster, and
1 got him on the gridiron, after a
deal of, fuss. The more poked the
fire the more he walked off, and I
thought the haste was haunted and
no good would come from cooking q
straddle bug like that"
"Wnat did you do with it?' said my
friend, getting mad.
Faith, the last I saw of him he
was going out the back door with his
tail up, like the maniac he was"
He had sardines for dinner.-Judge.

TEACHERS WAGE RANKS
WELL. FOR NEXT YEAR
CONTINUED From Page ~

The board has been most anxious to
keep the best teachers and has ad-
vised Superintendent J. C. West to
use his best efforts to bring this
about.
From Mr.. Ritchie's talk one might
construe that the salaries are beng
paid by the calander month, which
is not the case at present according
to reports from the teachers. They
are being paid every four weeks.
Twenty days of teaching in other
words constitutes month.
The only periods for which they
will receive no pay are the two weeks
at Christmas and New Years and
the one week at Easter time. For
other short holidays such as Thanks
giving, Washington's birthday, etc.,
they will receive pay the same as
though these were regular teaching
days. There are nine 20 teaching
day periods during the school year.
The board also realizes that owing
to the high taxes it is up to the
school district to keep it's proportion
down as much as possible and to
consider at the same time the eff
ficiency of it's teaching staff, which
it has conscientously endeavored to
do.
The news that the salaries have
been raised per month, rather than
lowered, with but very few exceptions
will it is believed, meet with the
general approval of the public.

REVEALED BY life TABLES
Census Bureau Statistics Show That
Women May Expect to Have Longer
Lives Than Men.

According to the new life tables"
about to be published by the census
bureau, residents Of rural districts in
this country live longer than city
folks. Their death rate is much lower.
People of all classes and both sexes
live longer than they did in 1900. That
Is to say, they live to an older average
age. The limit of human life does not
seem to have advanced.
Women live longer than men. The
average white female, at birth, may
be expected to live three years longer
than the average male. There are
more very old women than very old
men, because, when it is a question Of
survival, the former hold on to life
with greater tenacity.
Even the boy babies have not nearly
so good a grip on life as the girl
babies. OF 1000 white male infants
born, 127 die in the first year. OF
1000 females, only 1O5 succumb dur
ing the first twelve months
: Notwithstanding hospitals and high
priced doctors, the death rate among
babies in the cities is higher than in
the rural districts. One reason for this
is doubtless bottle feeding. The public
health service says that during the
first week of life more than four times
as many bottle-fed babies die as
breast-fed babies.

BROTHERS IN COMMON CAUSE
Matter Of Rank Of No Consequence in
BeIQians' War on tho Hated
Invader.

When Brussels was under the yoke
of the invaders a notable Belgian one
day went to the convent of the Jesuits
and asked secretly if it were not pos
sible to get letter forwarded to his
son, n defender of the User.
"That's extremely difficult" they
told him. 1--WE are spied upon. The
Germans are more vigilant than ever.
Still, We'll see."
A few days later the father Of the
soldier saw w0rkingman coming to
his house.
II am sent by the Jesuits," he said
to him. "I'll try to cross the lines.
Give me your letter."
"Here it is. Take this for your
trouble, and let's go to the cafe and
drink to the success Of your mission"
"With pleasure"
A week later the workingman came
again. He brought the soldiers reply.
Delighted, the Belgian kissed him, and
the two again went to the cafe to
drink, this time to victory. After
which the Belgian fastened to the Jes-
uit Fathers to thank them.
I'D like to sec the superior" he
said.
"The superior? Why, he was In your
house this morning."
"This morning?'
Eyes, this morning. He was the
workingman who carried your letter

New Name for Galoshes.

Norman Karr, the tive.year-old son
of Prof. and Mrs. II. NJ. Carr of De-
Pauw university, has heard so much
about "bootleggers" because Of the
activity of Sheriff Sears Of Putnam
county, that he often thinks OF
them, even though he doesn't know
as much about them as the officer.
Recently Norman and his mother were
walking through the campus, when the
boy noticed these funny looking things
called galoshes, worn by two goods.
He pointed at the. shoes and said to

most powerful stations. So is the
navy station at Cavite, Philippine
Islands, operating on $4,000 meters.
The Navy depends on the Annapolis
station, which is operated incident
ally by remote control by means of
keys in the Navy Building in Wash
ington, to transmit messages day in
and day out over radius Of about
$500 miles.
u. S. System Complete
The United States Navy has the
most complete system of high power
land stations for radio telegraphy of
all naval establishments. Southwark
of the great Annapolis station it has
among it's larger units the sending
plant at Cayey, Porto Rico, using a
10,510 meter wave, and another at
Balboa, Canal Zone, sending on 1O,-
40 meters. The eastern portion of
the Pacific is covered from the contn-
ent by station at San Diego, Califor-
MIA, and another in Puget Sound. The
former uses waves Of $500 meters
and the latter of TOO. In the Hawai-
ian Islands the Navy has two send
ing stations, one using II, 500 meters
and the other S.S75. On Guam is a
naval station which sends on 9,145
meters; and finally in the Philippines
is the $4,000 meter station.
In practically no place where it's
ships are likely to cruise will they be
out of range Of one or more of the
Navy's sending stations.
