Even Celebrated Engineers Have Been
Known to Waste Time on In
necessary Measurements.

There can be too great accuracy. ac-
cording to Chemical and Metallurgical
Engineering, which says:
"We recall one instance where a
celebrated engineer was preparing a
set Of tables for publication and was
using set Of 12-place logarithms.. We
asked why he used 12-place tables and
he replied that they were the best he
could find, that he had heard there
were 20place tables but he had been
unable to locate them. The interest
ing thing about this anecdote is that
practically all the data which the cele-
brated engineer was tabulating had
an accuracy which was seldom better
than 1 per cent, and an ordinary IL
inch slide rule would have been amply
accurate for the work.
again, when young engineer is
about to make mathematical calcu-
lation, say for example the surface of
heating coils necessary to obtain GER
tain results, he will almost invariably
sit down and calculate it to an ac-
curacy Of tenth or even a hundredth
Of per cent, and this in spite Of the
fact that the constant factor in the
equation (the rate Of heat transfer)
may not be known within so per cent.
Herein lies one excellent reason
why many practical man with good
common sense and wide experience
has been able to compete with en-
gineers in many fields"

Compass Plant Western Product.

On the prairies and plains of Utah.
Texas and southern Minnesota there
grows wonderful plant which has
proved useful to travellers wandering
over these vast tracts of country. It
is called the compass plant, or pilot
plant, because of a popularity in the
growth of the leaves, which grow al
ternately along the stalk, and point
precisely north and south.
The Indians followed the direction
given them by these pointing leaves
and told the white men about it.
This plant belongs to the family of
the COmpositae, and looks very much
like the sunfiower. 1t has a strong
resinous Odor, somewhat like turpen
tine, and sometimes goes by the name
Of "turpentine plant"

Daughters of 1872.

The above title in the Sunday State
Journal introduces two Wisconsin
women, one of whom, Mrs. C.. R. Head,
formerly of Albion, is widely known in
Edgerton and town of Albion. Splen-
did pictures of the two venerable moth
ers grace the page of the Journal.
Genuine Daughters of 1912" are
Mrs. G. R. Head, 423 Wisconsin avenue,
at the right and Mrs Mahala Phillips,
433 North Murray street, as their faith
ers both fought through the War of
1912.
But more than that, they may be
called women of the Nation" for
Mrs. Heads grandfather and several
of Mrs. Phillips kin were soldiers in
the Revolutionary war, they have each
given their husbands to service in the
Civil war and have lived through four
of the nations conflicts.
Mrs. Head, who is the mother of DR.
Louis Head, with whom she makes her
home, and Mark A. Head, Adams
street, was born in Verona, Oneida
county, New York, in 1882. When a
girl of Is she came to Wisconsin, ar
irving in Albion on the day in June,
1848, when the state was admitted into
the Union.
When the Civil war broke out, her
husband, Dr. Charles R. Head, was
made examining surgeon with the pro-
vost marshal at GAINESVILLE with the
rank of lieutenant and served through
the war.
A brother of Mrs. Heads was a cap
tain in the service.
In the World war Mrs. Heads grand
son, Jerome Head of this city, was
among the first volunteers and fought
in France.

Specialized Bear Rare.

A mounted "spectacled bear" from
Venezuela has been placed on ex-
hibition in the American Museum of
Natural History in New York city.
The animal doesn't really wear spec
tacles. 1t derives it's name from the
grayish-white markings trimming the
eyes. It is one of the rarest species
of bears known to exist and the only
bear found in South America.

better now than they have been at
any time since 1920. Japan is pulling
herself out of the slough of economic
depression and business in China is
getting better"
China's recovery. he added, would
be aided as the foreign demand for

the strain on Chinese purchasing
power is relaxed. Australian and

Business is picking up in western

reduced and merchants have taken
losses; labor has taken its cut
and has shown a pronounced tendency
to cooperate. Production. always the
fundamental bass of economic de-
velopment is increasing throughout
the entire area.
Since 1921 the balance of trade in
the United Kingdom has shown an
astonishing recovery toward its nor
ma status; that Of France is actually
showing an excess of exports over
imports. while Italy's unfavorabie
balance has beer cut to IA remarkable
degree. Germany's financial and
monetary upheayal has, OF course,
continued to retard the sterilization
of her trade position.
Eastern Europe, apart from Rus

from the ravages of war and should
offer increaoing opportunities for
American trade and investments.
AT present the disturbed political
condition in the Levant interferes
seriously with trade with tina re-
