NORMAL SCHOOL NOTES

Although displaying plenty OF hight
and determination to run up the
score, the Kingman five were sub
dued in a rather slow but interesting
contest by Coach brakes Lumber
lacks, last Friday evening, by
score OF 50 to u. During the first
half, Kingman had every little op-
portunity to exhibit their wares, as
tic Lumberjacks were making intel
ligent use of the five-man defense.
Kingman's inability to find the loop
when opportunity favored them kept
tie tally to II to 2 at the halfway
mark.
IN the second frame, Kingman gra-
dually perked up, thereby making the
game more interesting. To a certain
extent, the contest was marred by
personal fouls. Kingman, however,
carried off honors in this respect.
Walter Carlson, of Flagstaff, handled
the game efficiently.
The lineup was Camp, Stevens,
forwards: Hamblin (Captain), center;
Naegle Fillerup, guards
Flagstaff will see a hot contest to-
1T when the Lumberjacks tangle
with the Jerome ounces. Jerome al
ways places high-class aggregations
on the floor, and are usually run
ner-ups for high honors during the
asket ball tournament. Jerome de-
feated the Lumberiacks last year on
the Normal court by a one point
margin.

SPEEDoMETER SPEED CHECK.
New Device Deadens Engine When
Dialed Figure Is Reached.
From the Scientific American.


Possibility of improvement in the
speedometer has perhaps not i'm
pressed itself upon the average
driver; but the product now being
marketed by a Chicago firm indicates
that this possibility exists. AS far
as the mechanism indicating speed,
trip mileage and total mileage is con-
cerned. this spcedometer is no differ
ent from its predecessors. But it goes
far beyond that.
The dial at the bottom of the in
Strument may be set for any desired
speed, and then locked or left un-
locked. In either event, as the car
comes within two or three miles of
the indicated speed, the signal light
at the right will flash: and if the
aCceleration then continues until the
car actually reaches the dialed speed.
the ignition is cut off. If the dial
has been rocked, there is no escape
from this; if it has been left unlocked,
the driver may meet an emergency
by a simple twist OF the key, setting
the limit forward to any desired
point.
Finally. the instrument may be
adjusted SO that the signal light
alone works, without the ignition
cut-out; or the cut-out alone, with
out the light; or both together. as
described above. Ordinarily, when
the ignition cut-out functions, the
engine will go dead and stay dead
until the car speed falls below the
dialed figure; and at this point the
Cut-out will go out of action and the
rolling car will start the engine. just
as in braking with the engine. If
it is desired to prevent this, the dial
may be left unlocked, and turned
back to zero as the cut-out comes
into action. Is

HOW TO KEEP COOL
Jeweler Says Put Fan on Floor,
But Don't Forget It's There.

From the New \ ork Times.
The whole story of placing electric
fans high up in a room to cool it is
wrong, is the contention of julius Wo-
diska, a veteran manufacturing jew
eler of this city. Mr.. Wodiskas me-
chanical bent is attested by the nu-
merous patents he has taken out from
time to time outside the field of jew
elry His receipt for a cool room is
this:
open the windows half way from
the top and half from the bottom.
Then place the fan in a convenient
place on the floor. 1t is commonly
known that heated air is much lighter
than cold air and that. for that rea-
son, heated air in a room accumu-
lates from the ceiling down. If the
upper ..rtS of the windows are closed
the heated air has no way to escape
and the room will be filled with it
until it reaches sufficient volume to
extend down to the lower or open part
of the window.
Under the present system of plac-
ing electric fans about two-thirds of
the way up the wall. the heated air
is driven down and reinhaled by the
occupants of the room. Under these
conditions the room remains as hot as
though there were no fan at all. By
opening the windows and placing the
fan on the floor, however, the heated
air is forced out through the upper
part of the window. Fresher and
cooler air comes in through the bot
tom to replace it and is kept fresh
by the whirling fan blades. A room
treated in this way will be from to
10 degrees cooler than when the fan
is placed where most persons use it.
Where there are children the fan
easily can be guarded and accidents
avoided"

SALE IN SEGREGATION
APPROVED BY COURT
Transfer of Lehigh and Wilkes.
barre Coal Stock, Under Decree,
Brings $50, 4eO,esO.

PHILADELPHIA, August 9.-Sale
of the Lehigh and Wilkes-Barre coal
stock by the directors of the Central
Railroad of New Jersey to the Jack
son Z. Reynolds Syndicate Of New
York, under the Reading segregation
decree, for $32,490.9S0 was approved
by the federal district court. Objec--
tions to the sale by Isaac t. and
Mary T. w. Starr minority stock
holders of the Jersey Central, were
dismissed by the court, which held
that they had failed to prove allega-
tions that the stock was sold to the
Reynolds Syndicate at an inadequate
price.
The STAIRS sought to have the sale
set aside on the ground that the stock
had been awarded the Reynolds Syn
dictate despite the fact that the bid of
the Franklin Securities Corporation
of this city was nearly $2,OO0.OO0
higher. The STAIRS. who generally
were understood to have been acting
in behalf Of the Franklin corpora
ton. contended that the sale was IL
legal.
Judge Davis. who wrote the de-
cision. held that these charges were
not supported by evidence. 1t was
perfectly lawful, Judge Davis said.
for the directors of the Jersey Central
to desire the tonnage to be ctNtinVed
over their lines, and 1t would have
been lawful for them to have sold the
stock TO a friendly purchaser who
for economic reasons, would ship coal
over the Jersey Central provided the
separation of the Jersey Central and
the Lehigh and Wilkes-Barre Coal
Company was in strict accordance
with the dissolution order"
Not only did the STAIRS fail to prove
that the price paid by the Reynolds
Syndicate was inadequate, the court
said, but they failed to prove the
sale was made by fraud.

KANSAS CITY, August 9.-"There

Bailey of Kansas, who denied that
farmers of Kansas were in a bad
financial condition. "One is that they

unwise people and newspapers have
caused them to believe they are suf-
fering privations." He added that
the troubles of the American farmer
are mostly Imaginary.
The high price of wheat during the
war. he asserted, had caused farmers
to plant most of their land in wheat.

low prices. statistics show" he con-
tinued that Kansas is trying to raise
lj0.00o.000 bushels of wheat when
it should not raise more than sixty

From the Kansas City Times
The pilot fish is a little fish well

The general effect of the emer;gence
of women from earlier conditions it is
still too early to measure with con-
vincing accuracy, especially if the
observer has not felt the weight of
past restrictions. But some of the
gains made are sufficiently common
and obvious to force recognition. For
instance, ten or twenty years have
been added to the lives of women,
both in active work and in enjoyment.
A century ago fifteen was a marriage
able age. thirty was mature matron-
hood and forty was old age. AS to
anything over forty-that was sheer
senility.
Women live somewhat longer than
do men, but their life cycle in mems
minds covered in the past only the
child bearing period; they had less
childhood, less youth, less maturity
and far more of the least desirable
period, old age. Save as somebody's
mother or grandmother, they ceased
