pionted out that law enforcement
should start at home and around
that point he dwelt at length and
his discourse generally was one of
the real interesting features of the

The pageant was concluded by a
tableau of very beautiful and i'm
pressive character. With a repre-
sentation of Columbia, each of the
leading nations was represented by
one appealing to America in the
great world cause. AS each of
the characters filed in, the spectacle
was one of deep interest, concluded
by the whole representation sur
rounding Columbia in an impressive
tableau. This magnificent feature
was directed by Mrs. S. J. Kimbcll
and Mrs. Harry Jones.
Sheriff Chas. Stepp came in for
generous compliments last evening
in expressions from those addressing
the assemblage. His policy of law
enforcement was highly praised.

given $4,000 year by the state and
Il monument of brass was erected to

to do with the discovery, and did not

stood, also was given pension. Lopez
Immediately reported his discovery to

GOT IDEA For CASH REGISTER
Original Maker Of Machines Copied
Device From Automatic Indicator
Used on Ocean Vessels.

The Invention of the cash register
was due to one of those happy ac-
cldents of which only the alert mind
takes advantage. A business man
Of Dayton, Ohio named Jacob Ritty,
had store In a good location in that
city, and IT attracted many custom
ers, yet somehow It was not profit
able. He worried so much about
his lack of success that vacation
became necessary, and he decided to
take trip TO Europe. While on the
voyage, Mr., Ritty one day visited the
ships engine room. His attention was
caught by the automatic Indicator
which recorded the revolutions of the
propeller shaft The idea occurred
to him: Why not devise a machine
to record the sales In a store? Hence
the cash register.
At the time of this invention john
II. Patterson owned retail shop in
a small mining town near Dayton. He
tried two of the machines--then Of n
rather crude type-and was SO pleased
with the results that he realized the
opportunities they offered Ht&ought

them, and became Its president

BUSINESS AND SOCIAL ASSET
Pleasant Laugh, Which Can Usually
Be Cultivated, Well Worth Trouble
Of Acquiring II.

You can cultivate a pleasant, con
tagous and spontaneous laugh just as
well as you can cultivate good speak
ing voice. But you must work for 1t.
No doubt you hold an opinion of
every one else's laugh but your own ;
and unless you have frank and am
alytlcal friend or famously pleasant
laugh. you may never have stopped to
consider how your voice sounds In
laughter. And yet It's part Of your per
sonaity and you ought to know and
care.

taglously confessed that he had cult

"Once upon time | didn't laugh

lieved by q good laugh ut the right
moment. / find 1t a mighty helpful
business and social asset. And at the
same time the mere act Of laughing
has made me more optimistic So 1t
works Wen all around.
"Glve grin at yourself in the mir
ror and see what other folks see when
you smile or laugh If It isn't an ideal
picture, consider what you can do to
Improve 1t.

STORE FUTURE FOOD SUPPLY
Woodpeekers Arc Wise Birds and
Never Take the Chance Of
Finding Lardsr Bare.

California woodpeckers often pass
much of their idle time In the light
occupation of filing holes in tree
trunks with pebbles. When they are
really industrious, however, they man
ufacture these symmetrical holes and
MI them snugly with acorns. Often
they allow these acorns to remain In
cold storage for several months, and
then, when they need extra rations,
they know where supply can readily
be found When oaks and pines grow
side by side, the birds usually favor
the pines as storage trees This Is
probably because It is only on such
trees that the outer bark presents a
suitable surface for drilling the holes.
No living oak trees are used, but dead
oaks, from which the bark has fallen,
are chosen.
The vast number of such holes that
single tree trunk can contain may be
inferred from the fact that in 80 feet
Of fallen pine tree In the San Jacin-
to mountains of California 1t was esti-
mated that there were 81 800 holes.
Almost without exception, the acorns
are inserted into the holes The birds
take great pains to hammer them In
securely They Ike not only the
acorns, but the grubs that are often
contained In them As for the peb-
bles, they must make q speciality Of
them when acorns are not In the mar
ket--just to keep themselves In train
Ing for handling (or should one say
"bllling') the new crop.-St. Nicholas.
