The best thing about South Bend
by the way, Is the cheerfUlness and
contentment Of the people who live
here. These are characteristics that
have been remarked upon by more
than one visitor to the city, and they
are characteristics that we ought to
be glad TO have them notice
OF course we have large buildings
and we'll paved streets and bank
cleaungs and things like that which
are splendid in their own way and
which ought to be known of and
talked about, but these do not im-
press visitors so much because they
also have those things in their own
towns Perhaps you don't realize it,
but if you stand at the corner of
jefferson and one Of the business
streets that cross it and look around
you viii see the same things that
YOU will see in New York, Chicago.
ST. Louis or any other of the large
cities. 1t is something like being in
forest. There you will see trees
and a moderate amount of under
growth. The forest may be miles in
area or it may be only a few hun
dred feet. If YOU can't see out of II
however all you can observe is that
portion Of the forest which is with
ing the range Of your limited vision.
it is the same thing with cities. I'm
less YOU can see out of them all you
can see is Just buildings and people
and # makes no difference what
particular city you-are In.
Not every city. however. can boast
Of having a happy, contented and
successful people for visitors TO look
at South Bend can present such a
people and we should be very proud
of that fact.
We have spoken of successful
people Make no mistake about the
meaning of the word success. a
banker a baker a burglar and a
bootleSSer may each be eminently
successful i'm his chosen line of en-
deavor. but financial achievement IS
not the proper yardsuck with which
to measure success.

And still go about my duty. though
the tempter's voice is strong:
But I know that I shall weaken and
forsake the haunts OF men
When I hear some glad voice shout

The lure OF spring is mighty and the
blossoms on the trees
Have a coaxing way about them and
a manner, II you please.

And hunger for my freedom. but I

The rhinoceros-be beetle is rendering

patton q determined effort was made
to wipe out the beetle, and to this end
half-a-dozen scientists were imported
from the Cameroons and Germany
and attached to the local bureau OF
agriculture. These investigators tried
to find spray that would kill the
parasite without damaging the palms
and they were well on their way to
success when the war came and they

Read This and Ponder.

We all want to see our community
accomplish big things. Did you ever
stop to think that your community is
what you make it? If you are dead
your community will be dead, if you
are Indifferent your community will
be Indifferent, if you hold back and
refuse to keep abreast of the times in
which you live you are not only back
ward yourself but you are drag upon
the progress Of your community.
It is we'll for each OF us occasionally
to stop and interview ourselves seri-
ously and find out if We are headed in
the right direction-if we are a help
to our community or if we have al
lowed petty jealousy, opposite opin-
ions and differences to divert us from
the better course of usefulness and
progress.
It is only the man who possesses an
inferior strength of character and
manhood that will not change his
course when he knows that he is 60
ing in the wrong direction.
The man who can discover for him
self when he is out of harmony with
the progress of the community in
which he lives and changes his atti-
tude from opposition to support is a
valuable citizen to his community.

BUILDERS GUIDED BY MODEL
Ingenious Method Employed in the
Construction of Hydro-electric
Plant In Switzerland.

In planning the mixing and chuting
plant for the construction of the bar
rage de barberine, a hydro-electric de-
velopment in Switzerland, it was found
that many of the engineering difficult
ties would be solved through building
an exact model Of the site and then
erecting the plant to scale. A contour
map had fortunately been furnished
the American firm, and with this as
guide the contour of the ground was
reproduced in clay. Then the towers,
guy lines, cables and chutes were all
built to scale and placed in the exact
positions that they were destined to
occupy.
When this model was finished it
helped wonderfully in solving the prob
lens that had puzzled the craftsmen.
The clearance required by galloway,
the location of the guy lines, the use Of
single or double guy lines, the bracing
Of the towers-these and many other
points were made clear through the
use Of the accurate model. There was
also the satisfaction of knowing that
when the plant was finally installed
the layout would be correct and the
plant would function properly.-George
F. Paul, in Scientific American.

Diamonds Territory's Only Asset.


The territory known before the war
as German Southwest Africa is of lit
tie value to the British, who have &C.
CURED it, inasmuch as it is mostly des-
ert. It does, however, produce many
diamonds, which are picked up in the
sands along the coast.
The desert diamonds have evidently
been disturbed by water and wind, and
doubtless were brought from a not
distant source by ancient and van
ished rivers. Presumably they were
originally derived from volcanic
"pipes," like those which produce dia-
monds in the Kimberly field of South
Africa. Experts are inclined to think
that all of them came from a single
pipe, because they are so much alike
in quality, appearance and crystalliza-
ton. In the Kimberly field the dia-
monds from no two pipes are alike.
Accordingly, an anxious search is be-
ing made for the source of the stones.
Pipes, a number of them, HAY been
found, but, alas! none of them con-
tains any diamonds.

Formality.

John Smith, the furnace man, was
extremely proud Of his garden. The
lady of the house had long listened to
beautiful descriptions of it from John,
always followed by cordial invitations
to come and see for herself. Although
not especially fond Of searching for
beets in their native habitat, John
seemed to feel hurt when she never
came to see his pride and Joy. So the
lady Of the house ventured forth one
day and went to see Johns prize vege-
tables.
When the tour was over the lady of
the house went into the parlor to be
entertained by Johns wife and sample
her cake. John had offered some
grapes fresh from the garden, and
when he came in with his basket over
flowing with purple grapes, the lady of
the house said: ooh, what wonderful
grapes! Thank you so much, John ~

nantly drawing herself up to full
height, II always call my husband Mr..

Atmospheric Phenomenon,

A singular atmospheric phenomenon
recently noted along the western
coast of South America, is a bank or
band Of cloud extending for 1000
miles, from Ecuador to the center of
Chilli, and following the trend of the
coast range of hills. The cloud band
is between 10 and 20 miles broad, floats
at a1 elevation between 1900 and
5000 feet, and has vertical thickness
of not less than 1000 feet.
This curious phenomenon is as
cribed to the prevalence of cool south
erly and southwesterly winds blow
ing obliquely along shore, and having
their moisture condensed by the coast
hill range just sufficiently to produce
clouds without rain.

selection has raised storm Of pro-

Hearts Differ With individuals.

'"rhe student insistently demands a
description of what he is pleased to
call a normal heart There is real
ly no such entity as a normal heart"
said DR.. Louis Faugeres Bishop in an
address before the Medical society of
the greater city of New York. "The
nearest approach can be found in a
heart which is normal to the person
carrying it. The heart of laborer
would be abnormal to bookkeeper,
and the heart Of tall, thin man would
be a strange finding in the chest Of a
short, fat person"
Dr. Bishop was urging the examina-
ton of hearts by microscopy, which
he said enabled the physician to watch
the heart in action and to detect any
abnormality of tie performance of any
part of it.
