NOT VERY FAR FROM CORRECT
Marjorle's "Theme" Short and to the
Point-Had At Least the Merit
Of Conciseness.

The teacher had assigned task to
the children that was causing them
considerable trouble. They were to
write short theme ON what Makes
Great Cities" having Is minutes to
devote to the subject. Marjorie sat
chewing the end Of her pencil, her
mind apparently a blank. Five min
utes passed, and still she had not writ
ten a word. Then minutes went by
and Marjorie's paper was still. q blauk.
Twelve minutes. Fourteen.
"Only one minute more, children"
the teacher announced. Fold your
papers lengthwise and write your name
and the subject on the outside"
All at once Marjorie came to action.
She wrote frantically and when the
final minute was up she, handed her
paper in with the rest, correctly fold
ed and labeled. Sc. 60,
Curiosity got the better Of the teach
er, and at the first opportunity she
slipped Marjorie's paper out Of tho
pile on her desk.
Marjorie Jones'" was written boldly
on the outside "Subject-What Makes
Great Cities" t.., T..
The teacher opened the paper and
found therein one written word-cov-
ering the, subject more or less ade-
quately. That word was:

: Women Give Out

Housework is, hard enough when
healthy. Every Bemidji woman who
is having backache, blue and nervous
spells, dizzy headaches and kidney
or Bladder troubles, should be glad
to heed this Bemidji experience:
Mrs. X. H. Olsen,a703 Minnesota
Ave, says: "Threeyea ago was
the last time I was, troubled with
kidney complaint. At that time my
health wasn't of the: best. Ny kid
neys; weren't acting properly and
caused pains across the small Of my

seemed. to lack ambition. AZ steady,
duh, bearing-down feeling in my kid
neys was a source Of annoyance, too.
These several symptoms were direct
ly caused by the irregular action of
my kidneys. Not wishing this trou-
bic to develop into anything more
serious and remembering a recon-
mendat:on l had seen endorsing
Doan's Kidney Pills, bought a box
at the City Drug Store. This one
box of Doan's was all that was nee
essary to completely rid me of kid

Last August he began to complain
Of not feeling we'll and in January
he went to Texas for a change of eli
mate and reported feeling better.
last Friday on reaching Minneapolis
he went to St. Mary's hospital to see
his old friend G.. E. Carson, where he
was taken seriously i'll and passed
away about 6 P. M.
He was member Of the Woodmen
lodge and the Methodist church.
When he located on the present farm
home he picked out spot that
would make q good site for church
some day and three years ago aided
in organizing a little Methodist class
to which he gave his membership and
an acre for church site. The church
was erected last fall and is now being
finished for use.
He leaves his wife and three sons,
Melvin, who is married, and Roy and
John who live at home. One son
died in infancy. Four brothers also
are living, r. S. Wright Of Winnipeg;
5. H. Wright Of the old home at
Markdale, Ont; Bartholomew of
Chesley, Bruce county, Ont; and S.
P. Wright Of Portland, Oregon.
Yves Wright was cordial and ener-
getic, active in all the interests of
the community, and will be much
missed by his neighbors and host
of friends he made through the years
of his residence here.

REINFORCED CONCRETE ROAD
Experiments Conducted In Suburbs Of
Washington to Determine Strength
-. Of Foundation ,.

How q reinforced concrete road
holds up under heavy traffic, is to be
determined by the bureau Of public
roads. United States Department Of
Agriculture, through experiments to
be conducted on such road now be-
ing built in the suburbs of Washing
ton in cooperation with Arlington
county, Va.
Ihe, road is being reinforced with
many different arrangements Of wire
mesh and round steel rods embedded
in the concrete. The Joints will be
either crack left in the road, to be
filed with tar, or simply q sheet OF
corrugated metal set on edge with the
concrete poured around it. Some sec
lions are to have joints running along
the middle Of the road, some across 1t,
and some viii be built without Joints.
OF especial interest is the rconstruc-
tion Of ribbed sections. Instead of
placing the concrete on q nearly fiat
subgrade, trenches will be dug in the
subgrade running parallel to the edges
of the road and also across the. road.
These trenches will be flied with con
crete, giving the slab downward pro-
lection of concrete. and presumably
Strengthening it. Experiments also
will be conducted to determine the
Strengthening effect Of treating the
earth under the concrete. On one sec
! ton the earth for depth Of 6 inches
Will be mixed with cement, using i
part Of cement to % parts Of earth.

fact that was discovered long be-

that one-third of the number Of tele-
phone subscribers used two-thirds of
telephone employees time, while the
other two-thirds were engaged in get

third Of the employees time.
The telechrometer will also work a
