Why not print all books In such a
way that every page is n rlght-hand
page? asks DIR. I. Winslow Of Boston,
who claims n patent for his concep-
ton Of how to do II. He holds that
n n has to read pages on one side
of a book only this viii he held more
easily. the eyes will not wander. there
will he no necessity for changing the
position OF the head and neck. Thus
reading. especially of big heavy vol
nmes, will be less f~ntlguing, not only
to the eyes. head and neck, but also
to the arms and hands.
Mr.. Winslow's idea is to print n
book so that You read straight ahead
from rlght,hand page TO right-hand
page, these being numbered consecu-
lively; then. when YOU hive read
through to the last right hand page.
you turn the book upside down and
continue reading as before. what In
ordinary books are left hand e
now being right-hand pages. This, of
course. involves printing all left hnnd
pages upside down and numbering
them consecutlvely from the bnck OF
the book. This would easily be mr.
rhnged by the printer In laying out
The forms, though to get the pagina-
tion OF u large book correct would re-
qnlre some nice calculation on the
printers part.

Superstition Concerning caul.

The caul is a thin membrane found
accomplishing the head Of some child
rem when born. and 1t is considered
a good omen for the children them
selves. This superstition probably be-
came widespread about the time of the
Emperor Antonlnus Plus. When he
was born he had a band Of membrane
around his forehead in TIE shape of a
diadem, and he attributed all his good
fortune TO this caul. and this started
the sale OF them. A few sailors carry
ing them who then happened to be
saved from shipwreck diverted the SUI
perstition toward mariners.

Mr.. Mondells candidacy. At least a
year g he began to receive letters
from prominent republicans over the
state, urging him to make the race.
During the spring of 1921 the Sheridan
Post, the most prominent republican
daily of northern Wyoming, published Il
strong editorial in advocacy of his nom
%ination, With n single exception. wy
oming's republican press Joined in this
demand and in the month of Aug. Mr..
MOndell issued a statement which sum
med up the situation in an admirable
manner, therein announcing to the peo-
pie of Wyoming that he would he a
candidate at the general election of
1922.
The entire situation, therefore, was
fully canvnssed by leading republicans
and the republican press before Mr..
Mondcll consented TO enter the race.
Having so decided and made his an
nouncement to the people, there was
and is but II curse to pursue-to
stand for the United States senate. He
has never for a moment swerved from
this decision.
There is another insidious argument
being used-that Mr.. Mondell would
have no influence in the senate. This
is not ut all true. In the senate he
would have 1 vote in 90. In the house
lac has l in 435. He would not only
have more than four times the voting
strength, but he would carry with
him to the senate all of the per.
sonal acquaintance and intricate know.
ledge of legislation attained by %
years of service. His intimate know
ledge of all of the various activities
of the departments and bureaus would
go with him. At the same time he and
senator Warren would be able to give
to our member of the house Of repre-.
sentatiyes the value of their long con.
g%ressiOnal experience and personal
friendship.

MONDELL'S CANDIDACY FOR

Occasionally one hears the remark

situation, that MondclI should return To

ten. perhaps. the wi. II is father to the
thought but In other instances, those
possessed Of this belief are honest in
their opinion. To 20 to the United
States Senate has been almost the life
long, as well MS the iaudable ambition
Of Frank W. Mondell. SO long ago as
the senatorial fight OF 1898, when the
republicans lacked one of "A majority
in the legislature, and the democrats
were unable TO muster all of their
strength to the support Of any one
candidate. the republican strength was
cast for Mondell, with the single ex-
ceptiou of his vote, during many bal
lots. II will be recalled that there was
no election by the legislature and that
Wyoming for n twO year period had
only one United States senator. This
experience turned the attention Of the
people to Mr.. Mondell as congressional
timber. In 1891, at the Casper conven-
ton. although first urged for the posi-
ton of governor, Mondell was nomi-
mated for representative in congress.
In 1910, or shortly thereafter, close
friends of Hon. c. u. Clark stated that
he would not run again and the friends
of M0ndell suggested that If Senator

the southern route over the Cum

the traveller will go through the
state Of New Mexico.
Along the new route are num-
erous small lakes which are said to
abound In mountain trout. and this
will probably become very popular
with the tourists. For several
years the Wolf Creek road pass
has borne the brunt OF the heavy

chased to divide the boys into two
groups. The senior group will
meet Tuesday nights while the jun
ior group. composed Of boys under

Saturday afternoon.
The committee does not want
this equipment to be used by the
boys exclusively. Later they be-
lieve the girls could be organized
and given gymnasium training.
Also the business men could have q
class as could the troop. legion and
other organizations. In time, the
committee would like to have q
physical director who would give
his entire time to the matter. At
first several men have promised to
donate their services as directors
II the plan is carried through.
The equipment has not been
ordered yet. The committee In
charge wants to he sure Of the fin
ancial backing before ordering Il.
Also there are a few little matters
which would have to he straighten-
