INDICATIONS GOOD FOR
BIG COUNTY FAIR

In another week the Fifth Annual
McCone County Fair will be on and
from present indications it's going
to be "some fair"
The agricultural display this year
is going to be wonderful and a real
treat to come and see.
The real big attraction is going to
be the special corn contests of the
school districts of the county. 1t is
hoped that good old community spirit
will make it a lively contest. The
prizes, too, are worth going after.
Drop a few days hard work folks,
and join the corn boosters.
Every farmer is urged to bring
the best he has, regardless of
whether he thinks someone else has
something better.
Some very liberal prizes are being
offered. The corn selected to go to
the State Fair stands a very good
chance of winning some of the many
handsome prizes Offered there.
McCone county is rapidly coming

we must not pass up the opportunity
to make it known to the world what
can be done here in that line. 1t is
a real treat to see the many wonder

county this year.
The sports program has not been
overlooked and promises to be the
best ever. There is going to be some
real horse racing and broncho buck

EVER THINK ABOUT NOTHlNG7
CcurtslIne, Eminent French Philoss
pher, May Have Added Another
Word to Language.

Courteline, the French philosopher.
bids fair to add a new word to Ian,
guage, as did OSler and Fletcher. Per
haps we shall overhear the expression
ito do COurteline" applied to the at.
tempt to think without subject. A
new edition of the PHILOSOPHY OF
COurteline'' has recently been issued,
and the reviewer In LIE Progress Medi.
cal assures the reader that in place
OF system of metaphysics the book
consists of string of thoughts. max
inns and reflections on the most di.
verse themes.
Courteline, or some one else, had
heard woman say that "she never
thought, because thinking fatigued
her; but if she did think she tried to
think of nothing. This declaration he
regards as great to the point Of sub
limity-the best thing that has been
said since a certain gentleman went
on record as mo lover of spinach"
Such remarks are worth more than
many acts of parliament.
Instead of giving rules about how
to think of nothing, Courteline seems
to think along absurd lines and thus
reduce thought to absurdity. Thus he
states that it is better to drink too
much good wine than even a little
poor wine, and that it is better to
court two pretty girls at the same
time than one aged spinster alone. He
says of the doctors that they can
frighten him, but never convince him
that when they tell him he has this
or that trouble he has no difficulty
in believing them, but when they tell
him they can cure him he no longer
takes their word. He would rather
consult a small-fry doctor than lead
ing light of the profession, because
the former. having no theories, Is
much less to be feared. The brainy
doctor thinks more of justifying his
theory than of curing the patient.
Thinking about nothing" incon-
ceivable in itself, becomes ineligible
IL we look upon it as thinking non
sensically to stumble now and then on
a sensible conclusion.

Old Belief Proved Wrong.

The London Times recently carried
a news dispatch which indicates that
q pet theory Of the late Sir Norman
Iockyer has just received blow from
which 1t can hardly recover. Accurate
measurements made by the Egyptian
survey have proved that never since
the great temple of Karnak was built
has the sun shone straight down It's
axis. Sir Norman Lockyer believed
that this temple, and many others In
addition, were constructed for the pur-
pose Of obtaining an exact observation
of the precise time of the solstice-
that is to say, the day Of the suns
most northerly setting. But Mr.. Rich
ards, of the survey of Egypt, has
proved that the sun has never been
visible at all, at any moment in any
day in any year along the axis Of the
temple, since about 5000 B. c., and
that it last set along the central line
of this axis between 1900 and $4,000
years ago. At this date Europe was
still in the old Stone age; the cave
period was at its zenith, and the hunt
ers of the Dordogne were chasing rein
deer over the French tundras. To
suppose that the temple OF Karnak
can have been built then is out OF the
question. This would appear to dis
nose of the sun-temple hypothesis; and
the survey of Egypt is to be congratu-
lated upon a useful piece Of work.

Pacific Fruit Express will have
more than 27,50e cars for handling
fruit and vegetables from the Paci-
fic Coast in 1923. The Western
Pacific will release Pacific Fruit
Express cars supplying some 1000

total of 10000 cars where now
10000 serve or an increase of one

The Southern Pacific Company
recently placed an order with steel
plants in the East for $4,000 gross
tons of rails for delivery in 1923.
The value of the order is between
| $3,000,000 and $4,000.000.
Approximately $4,000 tons of the
rails, or two-thirds of the amount
ordered, will be used on the Paci-
fic System.
This will provide total Of $50
miles of rails for use in the West,
of which PIT miles is to be 110-
pound rails and 113 miles of go
pound rails. The 110-pound rails
are the heaviest ever used in rail-

BIRD SONGS ON THE PIANO
interesting Experiments Conducted by
Eastern Woman Give Rise to I'M
mense Possibilities.

Bird songs may become basic themes
for more music than folk songs. This
Is the prediction of Mrs. III. FL. A.
Beach, a composer who has been max.
ing experiments along this line at
Peterborough, N. III. Mrs. Beach's
explanation of her theory and her ex-
periments is unique and interesting.
my studio at Peterborough was
surrounded on three sides by beautiful
birch trees, the front facing wide
view of the valley and mountains. In
the deep woods nearby the hermit
thrushes sang all day long, so close to
me that l could notate their songs and
even amuse myself by initiating them
on the piano and having them answer.
The songs were so very lovely and so
consonant with our scales that
could weave them into piano pieces as
easily as / could have used folk songs.
It was q labor of love, indeed, and
only hope that have succeeded in Civ
ing at least a slight impression of their
exquisite rhythm and melodic beauty"
If bird song can be incorporated
successfully into piano music thus
there is an infinite field of beauty and
variety from which the themes may
he drawn. IT is to be hoped that Mrs.
Beach and her fellow-artists will go on
with their work Jazz will never en-
tirely rule the musical universe while
this sort of delicate artistry is being
carried on.-FrOm the BrocktOn
