"The unfortunate affair known as

NOT 'FINGER-PRINT INVENTOR
or. jacques 6ertiIlon Has Been Given
Credit Which Properly Should
Belong to Enqlishman.

Coupled with the announcement of
the death OF DR.. Jacques Bertillon in
Paris was the erroneous statement
tnat he was the inventor Of the Der
tlllon system for finger-printing, In
collaboration with his elder brother.
The facts are that the system was in
vented by his younger brother, and
that 1t had nothing whatever to do
with f1nger-printing, which was intro
duced as rival system Of Identified
tion by the late Sir Francis Cation,
the cousin Of Charles Darwin, who
also invented composite photography
and the now familiar term "eugenlcs."
Alphonse Bertillon, born in 1855
and died in 1914. for many years the
head of the criminal Investigation bu-
reau of the city of Paris police de-
partment, was the inventor of the So
called "Bertillon system" of anthro-
pometry for the Identification of Grim
inals. 1t had nothing to do with
f1nger-prints, but consisted of an elab-
crate series Of measurements Of parts
of the body with Instruments of pre-
cision.
The making of these measurements
required delicate and costly instru-
ments and the work of skilled men,
and 1t was, moreover, found that
changes in even adult bodies made the
system far from infallible. For these
reasons the system, though still en-
ployed in France, has in America,
Great Britain and elsewhere largely
been supplanted by Cations system Of
finger-printing or manipulating.

SEEKING SECRETS OF PLANTS
Experiments Going On to Determine
How Nitrogen ls Asslmilated
From the Atmosphere.

There Is reason to hope that the
world may be greatly enriched
through the results of observations
and experiments to determine just
how certain plants manage to assimi-
late nitrogen from the atmosphere
1t has been discovered that such
plants as peas, beans and clovers have
their roots invaded by myriads Of
minute organisms which may be either
bacteria or parasitic fungi.
These organisms in some unknown
way incite the plants to increased ac-
tivity so that they are able to assimi-
late free nitrogen from the atmos-
phere and thereby to supply, through
their own subsequent decay, an album
dance of nitrates, nitrites, ammonia
and other heterogeneous substances to
the soil.
Efforts have been made to deter
mine whether some other stimulus be-
sides that furnished by the organisms
referred to may not be supplied to
plants which will enable them still
more effectually to assimilate nitro
gen from the air for the ultimate
enrichment of the soil.-Washington

WAS BORN I'm THE PURPLE"
Known Now That John Wesley Was
of the Same Descent as the Duke
of Wellington.

A movement to restore the tomb Of
John Wesley, which Is in an advanced
stage Of decay, and the renovation Of
his chapel on the thoroughfare known
as City road, London, is already I'M
der way In England, and an effort Is
being made to interest American Meth.
Odists.
The tomb, the chapel and Wesley's
house occupy a site given to him in
IT'S by the city of London, not far
from the old cannon foundry on Fins
bury square, the first home of Meth
odism in London. Wesley's death oc-
CURED in 1871 in the house granted
him by the city.
Notwithstanding the popular belief
that Wesley was Of humble origin 1t
has been established that he was re-
lated to one Guy of Welswe, who was
created an earl by King Athelstane in
the Tenth century, Wesley is descend
ed, according to these findings, from
the same ancestor as the duke of We'll
lington.
In 1875 John Wesley came to Amer
lea and settled in Georgia, and started
the Second Rise of Methodism," the
movement having been founded at OK
ford from which Wesley was a gradu-
ate, ten years before.

.SPUD MOVEMENT
|. VALUE n D 7 BIG
Wallace Thinks "Buy a
Sack" Won't Help
Producers.

According to statement recently
issued by Henry c. Wallace, Secretary
Iof Agriculture, he feels that the
amount of good that can be done by
la nationwide Buy a Sack of Pota-
toes" movement has been overesti-
mated. The following extract is from
Mr.. Wallaces communication; The
suggestion of national movement to
urge householders to buy sack Of po-
tatoes is interesting and might be of
some temporary benefit to growers,
but there are several reasons why this
might not in the end accomplish the
purpose that is desired Few house
holders are prepared to properly store
lpotatoes so as to hold a sack until
it is consumed, and the losses from
buying in quantity are frequently dis
couraging. This might, in the end, be
more depressing on consumption than
the usual orderly buying through the
usual retain channels
| We are urging the Importance o.
close grading of perishable products
when there is large crop to be mar
keted, as in this instance. Ungradet
shipments not only depress genera
price level but increase the cost O
marketing. The presence Of inferiol
potatoes in the market does much t.
discourage consumption. The poor pc
tatoes should be kept on the farms
effecting a saving in sacks, transporta
ton cost and handling.
Proper storage near producing cen
tiers as well as near points of consump
ton, of the best grades OF potatoes al
so seems advisable in order that tn
market AT harvest time may not b
unduly depressed by the movement o
a large crop. 1t has frequently bee
demonstrated that smaller quantit
of well-graded potatoes will brin
much larger net returns than large
quantity of ungraded stock.
The Idaho potato has an excellen
reputation for quality, and those grow
ers should carefully conserve thei
market by shipping the very best G
their product this wear, even thong
some Of it may be handled at los
While the estimated harvest for th
fall is for one of the largest crops W
have ever had, it is not impossible tina
conditions may arise which will linn
the quantity of marketable potatoe
and thus improve the potato growers
outlook for prices"

HIS MIND FIRMLY MADE UP
prospective Juror Evidently Not a
Man Who Could Easily Be infiu.
enced by Trifies.

The last time jury trial was de-
manded in city court at Jacksonville
q special venire was issued by the
mayor under act of the legislature,
and the court took care that every
member should be man who could be
depended ON to vote according to the
evidence-as well at least as the court
could judge, the Indianapolis News re-
ports. The prosecutor, James L. Bot
torff, threw some light on the reason.
Recently, he said, jury was being i'm
paneled to try liquor case and the
talesmen were being Intercepted. One
local merchant had been practically &C
cepted when the prosecutor asked
whether he had any objections to find
ing man guilty under the prohibition
laws. "YOu could not present evidence
that would convince me of his guilt"
was the answer. II should vote for
acquittal If knew he was guilty"
The prospective Juror was permitted
to stand aside. He seemed to have
found sure way to avoid being
drawn for jury service.

Real GoIfinq Hero.

Lord Riddell, who made many Amer
lean friends at the Washington con-
ference, speaking at recent luncheon
at the Criccieth Golf club, London, re-
lated:
1.-THE greatest hero In golf history
was Scotsman, who in the year 1710
used to start playing at dawn and end
by putting at the last green by candle
light.
Matters reached such a stage that
his wife, an innkeeper, applied for a
separation order. This enabled the
man to make one Of the most pathetic
declarations in history.
"'Let her have the business he
said, provided she gives me sufficient
to clothe and feed myself and provide
myself with golf balls
"The magistrates must have thought
1t very proper disposition Of the
marital property, because they de.
creed accordingly, and the gentleman
lived to be ninety-f1ve and continued
his vocation"

TROPICAL VALLEY FAR NORTH
Area in British Columbia, Close to the
Yukon Border, Has Hundreds
Of Hot Springs.

Discovery of an almost tropical val
ley with rivers of boiling water, min
eral springs abnormal plant growth
and Astounding with game, in far
northern British Columbia Is reported
by Frank Perry, mining engineer of
vancouver, returned after II years
passed in prospecting the valley close
to the Yukon border. The area of
the terrain covered by Mr. Perry is
roughly 700 miles north and south and
300 miles wide, between the coastal
range and the Lizard and Fort Nelson
rivers.
The unusual sight of a heavy fog In
a winter attracted him to the valley.
Exploration showed the valley to be
approximately 200 miles long and
about 40 miles wide. Rivers Of hot
water running through, were fed by
hundreds of hot springs, the steam
from these being condensed on rising
forming the fog which Perry had first
seen.
Tree growth in the valley was alb.
normal, Mr.. Perry stated. Ordinary
wild rose bushes were like trees, and
so dense that 1t was impossible to
force way through. Some tree
trunks were fully one foot and a hall
In diameter.
Important mineral deposits were dis
covered by Mr.. Perry, including gold
silver and copper. Coal, iron and oil
formations were also found.

provided some good-natured raillery
at his young wifes expense
While attending recent Climb
luncheon, he had heard what he con.
sidered a prize" story, and that same
evening jocularly repeated it at his
own dinner table. The story runs
something like this:
Two old darkies STONED to look
at circus billboard, one of them
reading aloud that this circus wa.
the biggest and best on earth" while
the other declared that its claim was
the biggest and best on earth 'cept
one" and clinched his argument by
pointing to the words Sept l." print
ed at the bottom of the poster. How.
ever, In telling the story all mention
OF the date Is purposely omitted, as
the listeners own ingenuity is sup
posed to fathom the meaning of the
phrase, "cept one.D

fallen quite flat, as the wife sat and
regarded him in stony silence.

Many improvements
Made on Campus.
LIBRARY MOVED FOR BETTER
ACCOMMODATIONS.

There have been many improvements
made on the campus and in the build
ings of our college during the sum-
mer months.
Professor Hayman and his corps of
assistants have made the campus grass
grow over the paths that were worn
last year, giving the grounds neat,
even appearance. The campus is in
excellent shape for football practice.
The flower bed started in the triangle
near Finney Hall should be noticed.
In Sterry Hall the returning student
was nearly as bewildered at first as
was the new student. When seeking
their old rendezvous, the library, they
have to go to the old museum room.
While the museum has been moved
across the hall into the wrestling
room. The hall between has been fit
ted with book racks, so that many
books and magazines which were not
classified last year are easily referred
to now. The new library room is
larger, and more quiet. The three
large tables are greatly appreciated.
New flushers have been installed
on the toilets.
The large enrolment in classes has
necessitated several changes. Many
classes are meeting in the old chapel
room. DR.. Springer is to have the
library room of former days in which
to lead his larger classes on to truths
Chapel and assembly are held in the
auditorium.

Savlnu Our Gas,

It is reckoned by the bureau of
mines that 100000 gallons of gaso-
line were recovered at refineries In
1921 from uncondensed still vapors.
Such an economy has strong appeal
for motorists. inasmuch as 1t has a
bearing upon the price of the indis-
psnsable liquid fuel. But 1t is fur
Their estimated that If like system
were adopted by all refineries more
than twice as much In addition might
be saved. say 120,OOO,OO0 gallons alto

yearly to the country's total output
