A few weeks ago my parents and |

US, we went in one house, which waS
about half completed. We immedi
ately commenced to criticize 1t, com
menting upon its instability, the
smallness Of the rooms and how We
would hate to live in such a house.
Finally, our exploration of the frs
floor completed, we looked up to SET

surely enjoy the talks made by Jay
Stevens on fire subjects and othef
things that appeal to the minds OF
the children. He. must be DADDY
in his own right, or else he could
not make such appeals. And in ad-
dition | want to say that the chill
dren of this town have an extra
ordinary appreciation for the things
talked of by the visitor. The stu
dent bodies of both schools were
gotten together in the assembly
halls, both the high and grammar
school buildings being well equipped
in this regard and there the eager
juveniles gave Mr.. Stevens one OF
his best impressions of this COM
munity. He remarked that Win
nemucca has great wealth in its
children and those of us who re-
side here know this to be true.
1t is fact that Winnemucca and
other people interested in the work
of keeping fire prevention import
ance in the public mind appreciate
the helpfulness of the little folks
who can do many things in moments
of crisis"

L. G. CAMPBELL-'1 am glad
| came into The Silver State office
this morning for | note in the Car
son News that the Masonic lodge
in the capital city is just sixty
years of age. This makes the or
ganization one of the oldest in this
state. l observe from the paper
account that the anniversary occurs
on next Monday and that the oe-
casion is to be made celebrative of
the epoch marking time. None of
the charter members of the Carson
lodge are alive at this time, ac-
cording to the printed account. 1t
is hardly to be expected inasmuch
as time deals more or less unkindly
with us all and sixty years added
to the age man must be to JOIN
Masonry would make him well along
as an octogenarian. 1t does me
good to just stop and think of the
wonderful things that have been ac
complished by the splendid lodge in
the capital city. And think of the
vast amount of activity that has
characterized the work of the lodge
when the entire period of sixty
years is pictured in your mind.
Well may the present directing
spirits of the lodge celebrate and
indulge the reminiscent. Noted men
who made Nevada what it is today
belonged there, including the chief
executives of this state, illustrious
United States senators and others
of note. This lodge originated in
the days when men were strong

OSCAR REINHART-"When ev-

find that the government, that is
the federal authorities, will say just
where transcontinental highways
are to be built. l feel that this
is the only logical manner in which

it and ponder the question you will
agree with the statement, | am sure
that should the authorities deviate
from the straight path in the mat
ter of building roads that the Vic

as a dogs hind leg. From one
seaboard to the other there are a
great number of communities, may
be thousands as total, where en-
terprising citizenship is working
just as the good citizens of this
community are working and if the
road building engineers should pay
heed to them all the net results
would be roads that run nowhere
and were noted chiefly for what
they are not. However, it is worth
the trial, any way, for the people
of this town to get together and

RATS CAN BE EXTERMINATED
Writer Points to the Wiping Out Of
the Passenger Pigeon as Proof
of Assertion.

In the Book of Books we read, Won
deringly, of the plaques visited on the
Egyptians, says the Philadelphia North
American, editorially. In the record
of the centuries we find numerous ref
erences to plaques of other sort-and
all the while we are entertaining-yes
supporting and encouraging-the most
destructive of plaques.
In this land and throughout the
world we are permitting rats to de-
stroy property and endanger human
life. The word permit" is the only
one to use, for rats and mice could be
got rid of If a concerted, persistent eff
fort were made.
Let him who doubts this possibility
inquire about the passenger pigeon
which, within 60 years, inhabited this
country in such numbers as to actually
darken the face of day In Its flights
and Of which not one specimen now
remains.
1t was easier to destroy these birds
than 1t would be to destroy rats and
mice, but the possibility of the one
achievement jusdfies belief in that of
the other. And therS can be no doubt
ing the need for this destruction.
1t has been figured by experts that
we have at least one. rat for each of
our inhabitants-thati is the ratio gen
orally accepted in such civilized coun-
tries as France. England and America
In certain parts of less civilized coun-
tries the ratio is higher.

Touched Fireman's Heart.

An old mother cat got caught In al

Smith was at work In the thick of the
smoke when he felt soft and persist

smoke was so thick that he could no.

She wasn't worried so much about her
self, but she had her whole family

TELEPHONES IN GREAT WAR
American Equipment Said to Have
Been Complete Down to the Small
est Imaginable Detail.

According to the chief signal officer
of the A. Z. f., two armies, u corps.
33 divisions and 40 field signal bat
talions We're completely equipped with
telephone supplies. The signal corps
constructed 1890 miles of permanent
pole lines with $4,000 miles of wire !;
put up 1920 miles of wire on French
poles and installed approximately 49,
600 miles of combat lines.
Telephone exchanges on permanent
lines in France numbered 213, and
those in the advance section 123, be
sides small temporary field installa
tons.
About 100000 long-distance tele
phone calls were handled by the sig
nal corps, together with local telephone
calls estimated at 100000. The or
ganization of this system required the
services of a veritable army of tele-
phone experts, the Bell system alone
having contributed 11,299 employees
who served overseas. Girl telephone
operators of the system to the mum
Der of 233 went to France in the uni
form of the signal corps.
So completely organized was the
system of telephone communications
that 1t has been said that if he had
desired to do so, General Pershing
could have taken up his telephone AT
his headquarters in Chaumant and
called up any second lieutenant, sit
ting at the end of wire In an adj
vance post, anywhere along the entire
sector occupied by the American
forces

Really Nothing to II.

The Imperial War museum, London,
England, is compiling a record of slang.
and will be glad to receive any notes
on the subject, giving the slang terms
used In the army, together with the
meaning of the term, and, If possible,
the derivation. 1t Is quite understood
that many of these terms are not fit
for polite conversation, but at the
same time 1t is considered that they
will be valuable for record purposes.
In this connection may be told the
story of the new recruit who ques-
toned an oldtimer ON the subject of
the French language. Did he have any
difficulty In making himself under
stood? None whatever, said the
veteran, who was Scotsman. For
example, suppose you wanted couple
of eggs you said "twa oeufs," and the
old woman would bring three (trois)
whereupon you sent one back again.
Quite simple!
