COUNTING NOSES

Glasses of instruction as to the
proper gesture to be used in blow
ing the nose are now in order.
Also, a clinic might be formed for
the examination, diagnostication
and renovation of noses improp-
erly blown and thus placed, temper
arily, out of hygienic adjustment.
Scientific Investigators in search
of something new to exploit hardly
can overlook the nose. 1t is as
plain as-well, as plain as the nose
on ones face, and it has just been
brought into greater prominence.
A Paris dispatch Informs us that an
actor named D'Aragon died because
he had not been properly drilled in
the art Of blowing the nose"
Coupled with this information was
the comment that not one person in
ten has been properly drilled; that
nearly everybody "pinches both
nostrils," which is all wrong, as it
forces the germs Of disease up into
the brain, causing fatal maladies.
Blowing the nose in an art, not
a science, and, it may be remarked
in passing that there is a differ
encee between u full-blown nose
and a wll-blown nose. We strove
thus far with little success to
amend the full-blown nose from the
public face. Now why not pass a
few laws on the well-blown nose?

WAIT AND SEE

Now we hear that a doctor in
Chicago has been able to bring
back the dead to life by the injec-
ton of the fluid from adrenal
glands into the heart. Such de-
,velopments and discoveries as the
one which is assumed in this case
must always await careful examina-
-tion and scientific determination.
si Exactly what DIR. Grille of Chi
acago can do it is impossible to say
without such determination. But
already the world is familiar with
the miracles" of science. II is in
deed no new thing for science TO
''bring back the dead TO life" We
may speak of death ms only n rela-
Live thing, since life Is subject to

Organize Farm Bureau

SAVAGETON. wyo.. April 2s.-
The movement for the organization
of farm bureaus is spreading over the
county according TO word that comes
from S~avageton. which community
met last Saturday night at Savageton
hall and perfected n branch Of tho
National Farm Bureau.
About IS were in attendance. Off
GERS were elected as follows: Pres!-
dent. II. E. Rishel: vice.president, NJ.
NJ. Johnston; secretary-treasurer, Ed
win Rishel. 4 constitution was
adopted.
Acceptance of the new branch of
the farm movement will probably be
made about May 10. Another meet
ing OF the bureau will be held about
May 20 at which time further bust.
ness will be transacted. The exact
date OF the meeting will be announced
later. Savageton has many progres
sive farmers who will undoubtedly
find the new organization of benefit
to all who Join.
Later word from Secretary Edwin
Bishel. states hat 16 members Joined
at the first meeting. The hope and
intention is to organize the whole
county before harvest time. Only
five counties in the state OF Wyoming
are now unorganized. Sufficient time
will be given the next meeting to
permit the attendance II all who are
Interested.

STRIKING A BALANCE

The World Wal has placed an
over-emphasis perhaps upon the
chemist as a destroyer. Poison gas,
gas shells and similar products of
his laboratories have taken their
place in the popular mind as SYM
bols of the terror and horror of
modern New and more deadly
combinations have been discovered,
until now experts declare that it
would be an easy enough matter
ito destroy or render hors de COM
bat the populations of whole cities.
The emphasis on the life-taking
power of the chemist, however, is
n misplaced one. He is much more,
and more enthusiastically, n life
saver, and it is this phase of chemi-
cal science that occupied the fore
ground in the recent proceedings
of the sixty-ffth annual conven-
ton of the American Chemical con-
= svention, at New Haven, Conn.
AS more than one speaker has
Z pointed out at the New Haven
meeting, the main endeavor of the
chemist is to create and enrich life,
rather than destroy or cripple it.
Even that much maligned and ms
' understood body of men, the Chemi-
cal Warfare Service of the United
Estates Army, has sought in a hun
=. dred ways to make its discoveries
of value in the pursuits of peace.
Brigadier General Amos A. Fries,
chief of the Chemical Warfare
Service outlined to his fellow
chemists some constructive achieve
ments of the Army chemists. The
ARMY, he pointed out had d~icovered
Ia new mask, which experts believe
against all gases, no matter how
3@wn constitute a sure defense
.sdeadly, or how cunningly devised.
S-These masks, it is believed, will be
particularly valuable for fire
. fighters, and men engaged in fumi-
eating ships and buildings. AS a
matter of fact, this branch of the
Army merits the title, chemical
Peace Service" rather than its
present title, merely suggestive OF
its work in war.

siderable volume of sales OF eggs for

King Brothers, Burton Kinds and
C. w. Goodrich are among a number
of local breeders who are selling their
breeding stock to widely scattered
customers The recent sale of 100
hens at $3.50 apiece by Burton Kinds
to the poultry farm of the University
of Wyoming is indicative of the re
pute of Platte county poultry breed
ers. Mrs. q. w. Goodrich is operat-
a 1~.200-egg incubator for her own
flock and also for a number of local
customers, and the chicks furnished
to her customers thus far has been
most satisfactory.

SIR ARTHUR KILLS
CHRISTIANITY

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle intrigues
the interest of some and mildly
muse other so long as he confines
his discussion to speculative the
cries, or whenever he offers such
proof of life after death as he has
or thinks he has. But when Sir
Arthur attacks the Christian re-
ligion, as he did recently in New
York, he is on dangerous ground.
He is quoted as saying:
The so-called Christianity of to-
day, a material religion, is drag
ging US down in our fight for a
better world. Present day Christ
ianity is dead, dead, dead"
Christianity is not a material re-
ligion. Its foundations are laid in
faith, and In a belief in the sub
stance of things not seen. And
Christianity is not dragging us
down. It is lifting us up today as
it has been lifting us up for 1000
years. Nor is it dead, dead, dead.
The debt the world owes to Christ
ianity is invaluable. Sir Arthur
cannot see it and yet he has no
trouble in seeing vague impressions
of spirit pictures, and in believing,
with little confederation the most
amazing tales of manifestations"
We do not say there is nothing in
his new philosophy, or that he is
not in touch with some great DIS
covery connecting us with the great
beyond" but we do say that he
will forfeit the confidence of a
great many intelligent persons with
open minds if he undertakes to
belittle Christianity.
