CARPENTER MAY New
Err FIGHT AGAIN

Dispatches from Paris announce
that Carpenter the French fighter
who met Dempsey in the United
States last July, will probably new
er be himelf again.
The boy does not realize the
shape he is in" one of his doctors
is reported to have said. His trou-
BILE is attributed chiefly to 1.-The
terrific pounding" he received in
Jersey City last summer.
Any one who has seen the motion
pictures OF the Carpentier-D Dempsey
fight will not be surprised at this
announcement. Constantly during
the fight Dempsey's arm flashes up
and down over his opponents kid
neys. The kind of punishment the
defeated man received in that battle
is the kind that shortens life by
years and leave broken health while
life remains.
Boxing is one thing-prize fight
ing is another. And Tor sheer
brutality prize lighting as conducted
in the United States at the present
time is hard to equal.

THE TELEPHONE

Dispels the distances, shrinks up the

Brings back the voices and the van
ished faces,
Holds men together though the feet
may roam,
Makes of each land a little friendly
home!
The wires are everywhere
The tingling nerves of the air,
.Be-neTing cities, speaking for all
hearts,
From floor to floor their whispered
lightning darts.
Looping the prairies, leaping hills
and lakes,
Over the world their whispered
lightning shakes.
They stitch the farms and link the
battleline:
They tread the Alps and down the
Congo Irvine; -
They throb among the Pyramids,
and speak
Where Fuiiyama lifts her perfect
peak.

Senator Poindexter of Washington
has written a long letter to farmer
constituent who had the temerity to
ask him why he voted to seat New
berry when the evidence shows that
the latter had purchased his seat in
the Senate. It took a good deal of
paper and a whole typewriter ribbon
to make an explanation that was
satisfactory to Poindexter. Then the
economical Senator, to save lot OF
postage stamps, put 1t in the Con-
gressional Record as part of his re-
marks" so that he could send 1t all
over the State under his frank.
Senator Caraway rose to ask the
Senator why he had voted for. New
berry after having denounced Isaac
Stephenson some years ago for hav-
ing bought a Senate seat. It may
be possible that Poindexter thought
Stephenson had gotten his too cheap
ly. for he paid less than half as much
as Newberry--but then, everything
is higher since the war. 1t is inter-
esting to note that Senator Caraway
is still waiting for Poindexter to ex-
plain the why OF 1t.

ceive the wire messages slnluleaH'
eously. The stations are located as
shown in the diagram and each IS
enuipped with a loop aerial mounted
on scale which registers from
zero to three hundred and sixty de
prees. The operator on the vessel
y requested to send his test signals
which usually consists OF the snlp,s
call letters with the dashes maae
extra long and repeated Tor per-
iod of fifty seconds. The loop aer'
ial of each station is focused on the
direction of the signal and the aer-
ial revolved until position IS
found where the audibility of the
signal is at a minimum. The read
ing i'm degrees on the scale is then
reported by land telegraph wire to
the control station.
The operator at the control sta
ton has before him map on which
the positions Of the outlying COM
pass stations are recorded, the sta
tions in each case being the center
of circle marked in degrees. From
each station a string is layed out, as
shown in the diagram, so that IL
crosses the circle at the number OF
degrees reported by the operator at
that particular station. These
strings will cross each other at a
certain point which is the location
of the vessel. The latitude and
longitude are then calculated and
the control station reports the posi-
ton by wireless to the radio opera
tor on board the vessel. The time
in locating the vessel and
reporting latitude and longl-
tude to the ships operator is
usually from three to five minutes.
In many instances vessels lost in
an impenetrable fog and close to
the rocky coast have been warned
of their position in time to avoid
disaster by altering their course.
As explained in a previous article
the loop aerial being less powerful
than the type of outdoor aerial
necessitates very sensitive receiv-
ing circuit. A Circuit OF this type
employs the vacuum tube as de-
tector and uses in addition two
steps of amplification.

LEARNING TO START FIRES

It was a great victory when peo-
pie learned to carry burning sticks
from forest fires and use them to
start bonfires at their camping places,
You remember that people tried to
keep these fires burning from day to
day. Sometimes the fire went out
when the person watching fell asleep
or a heavy rain came down.
When that happened, there was a
hard problem. If members of the
tribe were lucky, they might meet
another tribe and get "a light" other
wise, they were forced to wait for the
next forest fire. For months and
months, they had to go without cook
ed meat, without warmth.
Men didn't like that. Setting their
brains and hands to work, they found
way to start fire whenever they
wanted to Go so.
No one could write in the early
Stone Age, so we cannot be certain
just how men learned to make fire.
Yet we can get good idea from half
savage tribes of later times, such as
the American Indians and the Eski-
mos.
If person rubs his hands together
real hard, they become warm. (Try it
for yoursclf). Some man of the Stone
Age must have noticed this. Here
membered that fire made his hands
feel warm, and that hot sticks made
fire. He wondered what would happen
if he made sticks hot by rubbing them
together.
The idea had been born. Now it was
time for him to try.
He rubbed two sticks together. The
more he rubbed, the warmer they be-
came. He kept it up for an hour or
so. Although the sticks had become
very warm, there still was no fire
and the man became tired and quit
He told his friends, however, that the
sticks had become warm after the
rubbing. They were interested and de-
cided to try to make fire themselves.
One of them acted something like
the man in our picture. He took log
and split a chunk with his stone ak.
Placing the chunk against a tree
trunk, he picked up round stick and
rubbed it up and down, pressing hard.
Many times he rubbed. A groove was

made. Tiny bits of wood (smaller. then
sawdust) collected in the groove.
The man worked on. Then wonder
of wonders! The wood dust began to
Glow. He waited, thinking a flame
might come. But there was no flame,
only smoke and glowing wood dust.
Casting about for something which
would burn easily, his hand touched
dry grass. He put bit on the wood
dust, and JOY welled in his heart as
fire started. His shout of triumph
brought comrades to the spot. They
saw the little fire and helped get 1t
we'll started by putting on more grass.
Then they put on twigs and sticks.
At last a real bonfire blazed. Men
had learned to start their own fires.

SNAKES AND INSECTS

There are no fewer than 1,SOO
known species of lizards.
No snake, frog, toad or lizard has
ever been seen in Newfoundland.
The common housefy lays 10000
eggs in the course of a season.
One fly has been found to carry t.
100000 disease germs on its body.
The househy becomes full grown
within about four weeks after its
birth.
Pythons in Africa eat goats and
pigs, but rarely if ever kill children.
The ringed boar snake was wor-
SHIPPED by the early MeXicans.
A snake expels about two-thirds of
its poison from its glands at the first
bite.
One pair of flies effectively swatted
in the spring will avert the possible
plague of 324,000,000 potential de-
scendants the next autumn.
