The Garment of Habit.

Our lives are mass of habits. If
it were not so, we could not live at
all. We wake and get up and dress,
we eat and walk and work, we speak
and think and love and hate and fall
asleep again largely by habit. II we
were forced to perform all this indie
pendently, originally, the effort of liv-
ing would be intolerable. A merci-
full part of our action depends upon
voltion and deliberate reasoning. In
the main we do what our fathers did,
IS they initiated their fathers, and so
back to the beginning of time.
Education is the forming of habits.
They begin in the cradle, or before
we get to it. The one great business of
parents and teachers is to see that our
habits are what they should be, and
with all the mighty effort and cogita-
ton that are put into the task how
often they turn out 10 be what they
should not. How immense, how rigid
and constraining, even in its subtle
fexibility, this encompassing mould of
habit is we realize only when we en-
deavor to change it or break it or
throw it off Get a bad habit fasten-
ed upon you, appreciate its badness,
set all the energy you have 10 get
ting rid of it, and you learn the might
of habit. We have ali tried and we
have all failed, and we all know.
The intensity of such an effort and
its too frequent futlity impress upon
us the danger of habit. 1t is a fine
thing to be on your guard against it,
to keep your life and character as
fluid as possible, responsive to out
ward calls and stimuli, ready to answer
in an instant to the controlling de-
mands of the intelligent will. Many
people preach against habits, and some
seem to have a far better mastery OF
them than others.

Legion Team Has Successful Sc,so,

The Shepherdstown America
egion seball team had one
OF the most successful schedules of
any team in all this part of the coun.
try. In reading the Martinsburp Eve

an account of the record hung I'D BY
Hose Company No. 5 of that CITY. /,
was noticed that out of the total num.
Der OF games that the Shepherdstown
team played the firemen, it won two
out OF the three-gam series. The
one game was lost at Shepherdstown
when the second team took the dia-
mond in the absence of of at least two
thirds of the regulars. The only team
that we failed to trim was Uncle
Sandy Bakers windy aggregation from
Winchester. At that the two games
that he won at Shepherdstown were
only by one-run margins. With steady
pitching by Willis and Myers and
with a good fielding and batting
Strength behind them the Legion turn
ed in an even number of games won
and lost. If we should take into con-
sideration that the teams met the past
summer were from towns and cities
of much larger population it would
be seen that the local outfit was really
chasing the horsehide around the lot.
Only one man on the team reached the
400 mark, and that was Brandy
Myers, who stung the pill for a fat
average of Alp for the season. Moler

Will be Mammoth Bridge.

The new Delaware river bridge,
which is to be built by the States Of
Pennsylvania and New Jersey and the
city of Philadelphia, is estimated to
cost about S2S,SN,OO0. This bridge
will cross the Delaware river from
Franklin square, Philadelphia, to Pearl
and Second streets, Camden, N. j..
Ii will be the longest suspension
bridge in the world. The main struc-
ture is to be of the two-cable sus-
pension type, crossing the river with a
single span l,75O feet long, from CEN
ter to center Of the main piers. The
clearance above mean high water Will
be 135 feet over a width OF 800 feet
in the center of the span. The bridge
and approaches are to be built to
provide a single deck carrying an I'M
INSTRUCTED roadway for six lines of We
hicles, lines for surface cars and two
lines for rapid transit, besides which
there will be two ten-foot Sidewalks
above the roadway. The width of the
main roadway from curb to curb will
be 81 feet The total width of the
bridge will be 125H feet. II is ex-
pectcd to have the bridge completed
by July 4, 1926, in time for the one
hundred and hftieth anniversary OF
the Declaration of independence, when
great exposition will be held in
Philadelphia.

Hear ID.

If you place one of your fingers
into your ear, a roaring sound will be
heard, which DR.. Hammond says is
the sound of the circulation of the
blood. Try it, and think what won
der machine your body is, that even
the points of your fingers are such
busy workshops that they roar like a
small Niagara. The roaring is prob
ably more than the circulation of the
blood. 1t is the voice of all the vital
processes together-the tearing down
and building up processes that are
always going forward in every living
body from conception to death.

American Homes Kept Too Warm

The most obvious way to save fuel
is not to use too much of it, and you
should not. United States public
health officials claim that most of our
city homes are, too hot and that the
average healthy adult could get along
just as we'll or better with a house
temperature two to ten degrees low
er than that usually maintained.
Americans are not such hot-house
plants as to require the II degrees OF
more heat frequently found in their
Offices and apartments. Sixty-eigh,
degrees, it is claimed, is good tenn
perature for the living room, while
it can Be kept at IS without discomfort
or ill effect.
Cutting the heat down from II to
IS degrees represents a saving of al
most fifth of the fuel bill, bureau of
mines experts claim. Some physi-
clans say that winter coughs and colds
are more often due to having the house
100 warm lIldn OF keeping III too Colu
The lower temperature would repre-
sent lower DOCTORS bill in many ir-
stances.
Much fuel is wasted in heating
rooms not in use. This is especially
true of bedrooms, as health is pro-
NOTED by sleeping in unheated rooms
to which plenty of fresh air has ac-
cess.
People in France and other Euro
pean countries apparently enjoy health
and comfort, without ever having a
fire in their house of the proportions
which the extravagant American thinks
necessary to his we'll being.

The Mole Does Some Good.

Perhaps no other animal is relative
~ 50 strong, does so much hard work
IN day. or eats so much in proportion
10 Its size and weight, as the American
mole. A mole's appetite seems 10 be
almost unsuitable. When held in cap
uVity and given food TO its liking, il
VIII sometimes eat more than its own
weight in a day. This need for large
quantity of food is probably due to the
intense activity of the little animal, for
experiments have shown that il NAV be
found At work At any hour of the day
or night, whenever its runawayS re-
qulre repairing or il is in need of new
food supplies.
From the standpoint of food habits,
1t would seem that moleS are chiefly
beneficial or NJ least neutral. Expert
meniS conducted BY the United States
Department of Agriculture show that
the mole Is carnivorous animal,
though vegetable matter is occasional
R found in its stomach. An eXamina-
ton OF the StomachS of 200 molcs
showed that earthworms and white
gruoS form the bulk of the food
Beetles and their larvae and other in
sectS that enter the ground, spiders,
centlpedes, and cocoonS also form a
portion. In one stomach were found
the remains of II small white grubs,
in one ESQ ant purparia, in one ten cut
worms. In captivity, moles ravenously
eat beef-steak, flesh of birds, or al
most any sort of fresh meat, but
Starve TO death when supplied with
nothing other than grain and root
crops.
The chief damage done by the mole
seems to be in tearing up gardens and
making unSightly ridges in lawns.
Molcs have been dealt with in the
United States chiefly as a nuisance,
but in some European countries they
are trapped extensively not only to be
rid of them as a pest but also to har-
vest their pelts. In this country il
has been demonstrated that molcS are
never dormant, that they never hiber-
nate. They may be trapped at any
time of the year when the ground is
not frozen too hard to permit the
working of the trap.

AVOID income TAX
rush, SAYS DEPUTY
File Returns Early, Advice to
Citizens From Head of lo-
cal Office.

The annual call for income tax
payers to "file returns early and
1,yoid the rush" which occurs just
returns must be filed, was sounded
yesterday by Deputy Collector James
u Young, acting division chief, in
charge of the local internal revenue
>mce, at 1922 Pennsylvania avenue.
Sesirous of avoiding the long lines
of taxpayers who have in the past
crowded the office of the internal
revenue bureau and overwhelmed the
clerks during the week preceding
March Is. Mr.. Young urged all per-
sons in Washington whose incomes
for the calendar year 1921 are tax
able to file returns early.
Delay Means Inconvenience.
! Putting this matter off only brings
added inconvenience to the taxpayer
and results in great pressure being
brought on the Office force, who have
to work overtime and in a great rush
just before March Is. Surely no one
desires to be caught in the rush of
last-minute taxpayers and no one
WHO possibly has the time should
put off filing his or her return until
a few days befoer the middle Of
March,"
In order to assist taxpayers in
nearby towns in Maryland to fill out
and file their income tax returns, a
force of deputy collectors of internal
revenue has been gathered, Mr.. Young
sSid, prepared to go to the towns and
communities in Maryland for this
purpose.
A. L. vickers has been assigned to
southern Maryland. He will be at
Hyattsville March 1 to 4. at Upper
Marlboro February 25 to 2S, at
Laurel March s to and at other
places in southern Maryland during
the latter part of February and early
March.
w. P. Burdine has been assigned
to supervise the work in western
Maryland. He will be at Rockville
March IS to Is. at Frederick
during late February and early March
and at HagerstoEn for the Month
beginning February Is.
Others to Be Assigned.
Other assignments will be made
from the staff of deputy collectors al
the local office. Mr.. Young said, tC
fully take care of taxpayers needs
in Maryland.
Numerous income tax returns al
ready have been filed at the Local
office, 1422 Pennsylvania avenue, Mr.
Young said. He could not. he said
make any computation as to the per.
oentage already filed, but he thought
1t was not large.

CONSIDER BEES
They Have Their Domestic
Troubles and Many
Don't Like Certain
Perfumes.

NEW YORK. Ever since "a bee
metropolis of the buzzing honey max
ers, tender hearted persons have been
shuddering at the thought of the dan
ger assessors might undergo in pluck
ing each bee from its workroom or den
and counting il. But they might as
well stop worrying. for w. f. Thorn
dyke who knows bees from stem to
dreaded stern, said today that all the
census takers have to do is count the
hives.
Even if they have to number each
bee, it wouldn't be so bad" he said.
"Some men could count them one by
one and never have to use n mash. OF
course, a lot would depend on whether
the bees were aristocratic blubloods
OF hybrids. The hybrids are usually
the fierce ones. STILL when it comes
to getting intimate with bees, discre
tion is the better part of valor"
Bees Back Up.
Girls with perfume and men who
use hair oil, smelly pomades or scent
ed talcum better get out Of the way
whenever they see a bee coming, Mr.
Thorndyke says. He has theory that
the little honey-makers just naturally
dislike certain odofs. When q bee likes
an odor ii noses right in to gather raw
material for its manufacturing plant,
but It turns its back on disagreeable
smells. And when a bee turns its bacl,
somebody is liable TO experience dis
comforture.
Bees have domestic troubles, too, and
these often put them in a bad humor
1t is to ascertain how many of the
baby bees at Goshen are suffering
from foul brood" and causing worry
to their queen and their papa bees that
the census was ordered.
Foul brood is something like sum
rner complaint among human infants
but more devastating II comes fol-
impure food given during the period o
| incubation.
The adult bees are not bothered by
the disease, as they thrive whether th'
larder contains good food or bad. Blu
when the queen bee gets sick, thei
| the physical strain Of weakness ulti
| mately affects the whole hive
