GOING AFTER THE hurley
CONTRACT BREAKERS

Steps are being taken to prosecute
those cOntract-breakers who signed
their tobacco to the Cooperative
Marketing Association and afterward
slipped it off; and sold it on the open
loose leaf market. Fortunately there
are not great many of them but
they should be made to understand
that the association will not stand
for any such monkey business as
that. The doors are now open to- let
In those growers who did not sign
during the first drive, but who now
see the benefit to be derived from
the organization and are anxious to
cast their lot with. their brother
farmers and stand together for a.
living price for their crop. The
probability is that when the crop of
1922 is ready for market there will
not be over per cent, not enough
to justify the opening Of loose leaf
house to sell it,, hence the wisdom of
getting on the boat while the getting
on is good.

MAY USE RABBITS FOR HATS
Senator Poindexter Of Washington
Shows Way to Put "Jaek" Pests
to Good Use.

Ephrata, Wash.-At the request 81
Senator Poindexter, a hat factory In
Massachusetts Is conducting expert
ments to determine whether or not the
fur Of northwestern Jack rabbits can
be utilized In the manufacture Of felt
hats. If the experiment is successful
market for this fur can really be
established, adding an Incentive for
killing one of the worst pests with
which the northwestern states have
had to deal.
Rabbit fur is now imported from
Australia for the manufacture of hats
and other finer grades of felt Hereto
fore manufacturers have advanced the
claim that the fur of the American
rabbit possessed too short hair and
that the pelt itself was not firm enough
to withstand the machine for clipping
the hairs. Senator POindexter discov-
cred that former experiments had been
made with the common or cottontail
of the northeast. = The western jack
rabbit has coat OF long haired heavy
fur.

What is the matter with the pub
lie schools? The only answer is
that there is too much public, too
little of the school. From one end
of the land to the other we need
more schools. More schools, so that
the cherished hopes and ideals and
hard work of the whole teaching
force from the superintendent to the
assistant teacher may serve the ma
ton as they so sincerely aspire to
and plan for"
The quotation is from 1.-THE
Teacher and the Taught" an article
in the March issue of Harper's Mag
azine, written by Grace Irwin.
Every friend of the Americapization
feature of the work of the public
school should read it; every legisla-
tor who raises a hand or vote
against liberal support to the public
school should be tied to a stake and
made to listen to it. For it is not
only the child of foreign parents or
the child born abroad and emigrant
to the United States who needs
Americanization; it is the street
child, the child of poverty and igno-
rance and wretchedness, who must
have it. And it is here that he gets
his first and often his only knowl-
edge OF what real American citizen
ship may be; here in the public
school, he learns not only the three
Rs, but what truth, honor and de-
cency mean, and what the rights of
others stand for in young lives
otherwise lived only in selfish
egoism.

NICE WEDDING PRESENT FROM
AN ANCESTOR
(Cynthiana Democrat)

Mr.. and Mrs. Ernest McIlvain,
who were. married last week and are
preparing for housekeeping in the
old Andrew Garnett homestead near
Robinson, received nice wedding
present from one of Mrs. Garnett's
ancestors the other day. In re-
moving a mantle-piece and hearth,
throwing ashes and earth from under
the hearth into a back lot. A heavy
rain fell Tuesday night, and next
morning Mr.. McIlvain discovered a
$3.50 gold piece shining amidst the
ashes, having been washed out by
the rain. The discovery turned him
instanter into gold-digger, and
when he had finished with the ash
heap he had unearthed 20 gold
pieces of $3.50 each. 1t is supposed
the money was concealed under the
hearth during Civil War when SOL
diers were frequent visitors in the
neighborhood. Al railroad bridge
spans South Licking at the foot of
the hill on which the Garnett home
stead stands; and across the river
are still traeeable the remains of a
fort which the Federal troops built
to guard the bridge during the war.
The presence Of these soldiers prob
ably led 20 the hiding of the gold.
Mr.. and Mrs. T. T. Garnett occu-
pied the homestead for number of
years, and now their daughter, Mrs.
McIlv&ine, formerly Martha Gar
nett, and her husband have the
place.

An old-time Paris man, who has
seen the suns of many summers and
the SHOWS of many winters, listened
patiently the other night while Sc

young men almost persuaded he was

French AirpIane Manufactures
Startles Science Society With
His Predictions.
SEES REVOLUTION IN FLYING
Export Says In This Generation All
Passengers Will Go by Air, VIII =
Ships and Trains for
Freight.

Paris.-The announcement before
the French Association for the Ad-
vancement OF Sciences that In the near
future airplanes would travel at a
speed Of over $50 miles an hour
startled the conservative Frenchmen
so much that they charged Nj. Breguet,
famous French airplane manufac-
turer, was more imaginative than
Jules Verne.
Circle Earth In Twenty-Four Hours.
In his speech Breguet said that when
certain improvements that he is work
ing on are brought to perfection air
planes will travel at a height Of over
six miles, where air resistance is
slight, make straight flights Of thou
sands Of miles without stopping, and
furnish voyagers more comforts than
any modern transatlantic liner.
This great speed, which, he claims,
will even be tripled some day, would
be greater than the peripheric speed
Of the earth and would enable one to
fly completely around the world In less
than "a hours. The improvements
which will revolutionize flying In this
manner are i'm the weight of the motor
in proportion to its horsepower; the
turbo-cOmpressor which he has just
invented with NJ Rateau, to enable
motors to maintain their sea-level
horsepower at great attitudes; perfec-
tons In construction metals, which
will greatly reduce the weight of the
planes, and the fineness Of the planes.
During the war the fineness of the
wings was around 20 to 80 per cent !;
now it is about 10 per cent, while the
ideal, that of the eagle, the hawk and
other planning birds, is a trifie under 4
per cent.
Would Develop Speed.
NJ. Breguet called upon airplane
manufacturers to devote themselves to
the development of planes which can
travel at least 1000 miles without
stopping, such as from Ireland to
Newfoundland, or Bakar to Pernam-
buco; minimum speed of over 200
miles an hour; every modern comfort,
including Pullman accommodations so
that passengers could sleep during
long trips at night, and to have wire
less installations to keep I'm constant
touch with the earth and be directed
by radiogonometry.

pedestrian forty miles an hour.
The young hopeful of Mr.. j. ].
veatch, District Manager of the Gen.
trail Home Telephone Co., is Of an
Jnquiring turn OF mind, and has been
1deiving lately into historical mat
tiers. The day before st. Patrick's
Day young Veatch inquired of his
father, ''Da Idly, was George Wash
fngton the man who drove the snakes
out of Ireland?" Daddy promptly
set the young man right his
torically. Friday morning he was
telling of the incident while in a
local barber shop, when John Pete"
Cain, remarked: well, old George
drove the snakes out of America all
right, when he beat the British,
didn't he?"
Does the possession of a little au-
thority and the possession of must
cal genius confer on the possessors
the right to make themselves null
sance around them? The question
Is suggested by little happening at
the Paris Grand Tuesday night. A
certain high official in the city's
service and a well-known Bourbon
county man who is a talented vocal
Est, occupied adjoining seats. The
vocalist followed the orchestra,
vhistled, sang, kept time with his
feet and hands, and succeeded in
attracting the attention of all
around him. And they both read
the titles out loud, and kept up a
rapid fire line Of conversation,
aloud. Again, does the possession
of authority and musical genius
give them the right to make them
selves obnoxious?

transposing this equation the imped.
ance Is equal to the applied voltage
divided by the current. The imped-
ance of a vacuum tube plate circuit,
internally between the filament and
the plate, when the grid is at zero
potential, is an important constant Of
a vacuum tube and is called the in
ternal plate impedance.
The internal grid impedance of a
vacuum tube used in a radio set as
detector determines the impedance
of the telephones that will give best
results when connected in the plate
circuit of that particular tube.
1t Is then not only the resistance Of
pair of telephones, but also the in.
ductance and the distributed capacity
of the winding that cause the maxi.
mum current to flow In the telephones
for a given change In grid potential.
The internal plate impedance Of a
vacuum tube varies only slightly with
different plate voltage. 1t is more an
Inherent characteristic Of the tube
which Is determined by the design.

positive with respect to the filament

After the alternating difference of

the bell rings on one it rings for all
the others, too, reports the Indian
apolis News. But each patron Is sup
posed to be honorable and answer the
phone only when his or her own call
Is given. Many, being rather lonely,
answer all calls and do the listening
stunt to perfection.

schools received present from his

neighbOrs. He intended to thank the
Ieighbors at the exercises. But when
the girls came he decided to thank
her right away. And he went to the
telephone and called her number.
He heard central ring her phone,
and then counted six clicks before she
answered him. He knew he had an
audience. So quite politely he said.
"Now that you are all together 1
want to thank you individually and
Jointly for the nice presents you sent
me for my graduation"
A silence, and then gently six re-

The boy, sure he had privacy with his

NEW RADIO FILTER A MARVEL
Campbell Device That Separates TeIe-
phone and Telegraph
Messages.

Although much has been said and
written about the remarkable filters
employed by the telephone lines and
by advanced radio workers for the
separation of telephone and telegraph
messages, says the Scientific Ameri-
can, 1t remained for DIR. Frank
b. Jewett, chief engineer Of the West
ern Electric company, to demonstrate
how the filter permits of transmitting
radio telephone and telegraph mes
sages simultaneously. and Of separating
these messages at the receiving end,
at meeting of the American Insti-
tute of Electrical Engineers.
The present electrical filter is the
Invention Of DIR. q. A. Campbell, a
telephone engineer, and makes it pos
sible to separate the various frequen-
cies ut which tho individual tele-
phone and telegraph messages are car
ried. The detected electrical current
In a radio receiving set Is passed
through the filter which separates the
freQuencies of the telegraph message
from those of the telephone.
The filter differs materially from the
ordinary tuned circuits familiar to the
radio enthusiast, since it separates not
single frequencies but bands of fire.
quencies of any predetermined width.
The filter makes it possible to sep
arate the band of frequencies COM
prising the telephone message from the
band comprising the telegraph mes
sage. 1t can also separate one tele-
phone message from another.

would soon collect suilcient mega.
tive charge to reduce the plate cur
rent to zero and the tube would cease
to function.
A grid leak having too low resist.
ance will not allow d sufficiently high
negative charge to collect on the grid,
resulting in very small plate cur
rent reduction and weak response In
the telephone receivers.
On the other hand, If the grid leak

negative charge will collect on the
grid and the condition of no grid leak
will be approached.

upon the 'fmpedance" Of that circuit

a pipe, the quantity Of water that
will flow when any given pressure
Is applied depends upon how much
the flow through the pipe is impeded
by the friction of the particles Of
water against the sides of the pipe
and against one another.
In the electrical circuit, the rela.
ton between these three quantities
Is that the current which will flow
Is equal to the applied differences of
potential divided by the impedance,
where the current is in amperes, the
applied difference Of potential is In
