WEATHER MAN ENDS
45 YEARS SERVICE
James H. Melton Has Seen
Enormous Technical
Development.

Weather forecasts, SO mysterious
to the layn1an, are an old story to
James III. Melton, employe of the
Weather bureau, who retires. May
IS, after forty.five years of contin-
uous service.
He has worked under each OF the
six men who have held the post
of Chief of Bureau, and has kept
records of climatic conditions at
twelve stations from Maine to-
Florida.
More than 33,85O weather pre-
dictions have been issued since he
enlisted in the signal corps nearly
half century ago. At that time
the signal corps was in charge of
the work now performed as q
function of the Department OF
Agriculture.
instruments used in recording
temperature, barometric pressure,
and precipitation have been i'm.
proved from crude inaccurate in
struments to the modern scientific
cally perfect apparatus now in use,
during this period.
AS he will leave the bureau in
a few days en- leave until the time
his retirement is effective, the en-
ployes held a farewell party for
him yesterday. He was presented
with a snake wood cane in appre-
citation of his long and meritorious
service.

Clear, colorful skin-digestion like healthy

Every one of these remarkable letters is typical
of thousands of similar tributes to the power of
Fleischmann's Yeast.
People who have suffered agonies with diges.
tive disorders have fought for years against
constipation Whose appearance was ruined by
unsightly eruptions of pimples and boils have
found in Yeast an almost magical relief
1t is easy to see why.
While Of course many such cases demand i'm.
mediate medical surgical aid, most of them
are due simply to wrong habits of living and eat
ing. The intestinal tract gets sluggish and weak
unable to remove the waste matter properly
and SO the whole body is flooded with poisons.

affect the skin. The digestive organs may break
down.

Civilization advances no faster than they permit it, yet they never

To the few rare souls of clear vision has nature handed the gift
Of leadership, they who direct the way of the march. To them only
is given imagination. 1t is they who depict on the curtain OF the
future the next right move for the masses to make.
The masters are the men who dare march ahead and alone. Be-
cause Of their confidence the plOdders put confidence in them and fol-
low them. Age limits leadership. The leader must express the new
or be suppanted by him who represents that which is new. Every
champion is some day confronted by his better. Youth is bold and

BUFFALO AGAIN TO LIVE
WHERE FIRST DISCOVERED

The recent gift Of three buffalo to

discovery and early history of these
dig game animals. The gift will be
sent from the herd maintained by
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture on the Wichita Game Pre-
.crve, Oklahoma, to the geological
lark in the City Of Mexico, almost
II the very spot where the buffalo
vas first discovered by Europeans.

hat 400 years ago, when Cortez en-
erred Montezuma' s capital, on the pre-
ent site of the City Of Mexico, white
nen had their first view of buffalo, Q
lerd Of which was maintained in the
m%enagerie Of the emperor. This was
n 1921, when buffalo roamed in mil
lions over the tablelands of the pres
mt western United States.
An early writer, Antonio de Soils,
Who first described Montezuma q men
lgerie, declared that the greatest rar-
ty in the collection was the mexican
,ull," which had crooked shoulders, a
punch on its back like the camel, and
IS neck covered with hair like the
ion. 1t was in these terms that he
characterized the American buffalo

toward u southern neighbor, a gift

Park, and Prof. A. L. Herrera, in
charge of the geological work of the
