TO RESTORE WAR INSURANCE
Veterans Who Permitted Term Insur-
ance to Lapse Can Easily Get
1t Reinstated.

Washington.-It will be news to
many World war veterans to learn
that the United States veterans bur-
eau has inaugurafed reinstatement
campaign for the benefit of those who,
either through misunderstanding or
inability to meet premium payments,
have permitted their term (war time)
insurance to lapse.
Director Forbes announces that no
matter how long a time has passed
since the last premium was paid, an
ex-service man may easily renew his
term (war time) Insurance contract If
he is in good health, or If he Is dis
abled. provided the disability from
which he is suffering is due to serv-
ice and is not of a total and perma-
nent nature. Veterans will be par
ticularly interested in learning that
they may reinstate $1,000 or any high
er amount, In multtples Of $500, of the
amount Of insurance they carried
wf1f1e IN the service II will also be
Of interest to the public to know that
over 100000 of the men who applied
for insurance during the war have
continued their policies in force and
that these ex-service men and women
are carrying insurance protection
amounting to the enormous sum Of
over $3,OOO,OOO,00O.
The reinstatement requirements
have been made most liberal; in fact,
If an ex-soldier Is in good health it is
only necessary for him to furnish
medical proof of that fact, and pay
two monthly premiums on the amount
of term insurance to be reinstated.
Physicians have been appointed in all
of the branch offices of the bureau
where ex-service men can secure the
necessary medical examination with
out cost. Detailed information may be
obtained by writing to the United
States Veterans Bureau, Washington,
D. c., but in the interest of accurate
Identification and promptness, the per-
son writing should be sure to give his
full name, rank and organization when
in the service and, If possible, his serial
number.

new YORK PIER i.
PIRATES DARING
Waterfront ebooters Are Pro-
ficient at Eooting Cargoes
..-. of Vessels.
TAKE BIG FORTUNE IN GOODS
Modern Thieves, With Value Of Loot
Mounting to Fffty Millions Year,
Make Captain Kidd Look Like
Mere Piker.

New York.-None Of the thousands
whoIiye quietly in the cramped apart
ments and narrow houses Of New York
city have any first hand knowledge of
robbery, beyond enforced association
with rent thieves, coal highwaymen,
and mercantile crooks.
They will, therefore, be surprised to
discover that the populous waters
about the city yield more than $780,
O0O. 900 every year to the modern pirates
and sea rovers. All the buccaneers Of
antiquity, whose names and deeds are
written fast into the texture Of men,
ory, never approached such capitalistic
magnitude.
Government Wages. Campaign.
The modern thieves steal more each
month than Captain Kidd is said to
have accumulated out Of all his fagran-
cies. In the last few years the federal
government has waged campaign
against these thieves, aided by the rail-
roads which deliver goods to tidewater,
the owners of ocean-going ships and
harbor craft, the companies operating
piers and docks and, particularly, by
the great marine insurance companies.
A number Of gangs Of river and har-
Dor pirates have been broken up and a
trickle Of the robbers has run into the
prisons, but the losses are as great as
ever and promise to increase. Probably
three-fourths Of the stealing near New
York city is aimed against exports.
The merchandise is consigned to Eu-
rope, to Asia, to Africa, to the furthest
isles in the southern seas, and the out
ermost ports and lands. It may be
months in transit. If part Of con-
signment is stolen who Is to discover
the crime until the bales and cases ar
rive at their far-off destination and are
examined by receivers?
Pier Officials Go Crooked.
One Of the typical ways Of accom-
piishing such robberies is made clear.
by the case Of silk goods exporter Of
Fourth avenue, New York city. Five
heavy cases Of merchandise, valued at
close to $4,000, were sent to a pier to
be loaded for South America. The
cases got into the hands of a truckman
who was working with the harbor
thieves.
He took the cases to the pier, got a
signed bill Of lading from the shipping
company, turned his truck about and
drove off the pier again without ever
unloading. The trick was accom-
plished, Of course, by means Of collu.
sion. One of the officials Of the pier
was working with the thieves and he
had supplied the truckman in advance
with a pass, which the guard at the
land end Of the pier was bound to
recognize.

BLIND MAN STUDIES STARS
Takes Course in Astronomy in Miehi-
gan University to Qualify
for Degree.

Ann Arbor, Mich.-Blind from birth,
with his conception of the heavensI
formed by descriptions from others, Jo-l
seph Caldwell Of Indiana, Pa, is study
ing astronomy at the University of
Michigan in order that he may meet
the scientifical requirements to permit
him to be graduated from the college,
Of literature, science and arts. !
Mr.. Caldwell, a sophomore and forty
six years old, is doubly handicapped. In
addition to his blindness, be lacks the,
mechanical aids for the study Of as
tronomy that often are afforded stu;
dents who take up other studies. Blind
students of astronomy are so rare that
there are no textbooks with raised
type. Therefore, he depends upon fell
low-students to read his lessons to him
So proficient has he become. his pro-;
fessors say, that he frequently memo!
rizes a lesson by hearing it read only
a few times.
In addition to astronomy, Mr.. .Cald-;
we'll is studying psychology, German
French and Italian. He ranks as one Of
the best students in his classes.

HOT ON MOON AT NOON

Heat Measurement involves Use Of
Delicate instrument Which Will
Detect Heat Of Candle
Miles Away.

Cambridge, Mass.-The tempera-
ture on the moon probably ranges
from well above the boiling point at
moon" to far below zero during the
night, scientific observations indicate,
Prof. Donald H. Menzel of Princeton
said ina paper submitted to the
American Astronomical society.
The paper outlined new methods Of
calculating the temperatures Of the
planets, emphasizing that the tenta-
tive results reached by these methods
were not final. ,
whatever the amount of water
vapor present in our atmosphere" he
said. 'the Indications are that the
surface Of the moon is definitely
heated.
"The values for Venus and Mars
are very dependent upon the water
vapor and very little can be got from
the observations. Both planets have
an atmosphere, Mars being very thin,
and that Of Venus more like ours.
The results indicate the temperature
at the quarter Of Mars during the day
may be as high as 20 or rs degrees
centigrade, with a large fall during
the night. Venus temperature is
higher than our earth's.
For the two larger planets, Jupiter
and Saturn, they radiate some heat Of
their own. If they were warmed only
by the heat Of the sun they would
be 100 to 100 degrees below zero
centigrade.
"The temperatures obtained for
these planets are probably fairly ac-
curate and we have for Jupiter OBJ
tanned something less than 80 below
zero centigrade, while Saturn is hot
ter by some 20 degrees"
The heat measurements as made at
the Lowell observatory in Arizona.
involve the use of a delicate instru-
ment known as the thermocouple,
which Is capable of detecting the heat
from a tallow candle at a distance Of
many miles.

CANNIBALS HERE

Scientist Finds Portions Of Hu-
man Skulls in Mounds
Near Omaha.
RESEARCHES ARE IMPORTANT
Declares .Peaee-Loving Race Inhab-
tied the Midwest Section Of
America Prior to Time
of indians.

Omaha, Neb.-In an effort to obtain
evidence to support his belief that
Nebraska was inhabited 4,0OO years
ago by cannibalistic cave men, Dur.
Robert F.. Glider, doctor Of science,
known throughout the West for his
desert landscape canvases, has be-
gun excavating a short distance south
Of Omaha. Permission was granted
him after a dozen years Of effort to
induce owners of the land to permit
the excavations.
The site of the excavations is
marked by several eroded mounds
which the scientist believes were COM
munity houses of the Omaha or Paw
nee Indians. It Is his theory that
these mounds were built upon the
foundations Of the houses Of the ear
lier tribe, possibly ancestors. Of the
Midwest Indians. In support Of this
belief, he has discovered that the up
per structure-declared by him to
have been built with mud and stone
sides covered with thatch-had an
entrance on the south, whereas the
lower excavations clearly show en-
frances from the east.
Finds Bones Of Men.
Using the Darwinian accumulation
theory-one inch Of earth to each CEN
tury-Doctor Glider calculates that he
has reached the 1000 years-ago surface
level and there he has discovered por-
tions Of human skulls, arm and foot
bones.
His discoveries include ashes, de-
clared by him to be roasted human
bones. From this he evolves the the
DRY that the early inhabitants were
cannibals. Some thirty or forty i'm
plements of bone and wood he has
found are almost identic with crea-
dons unearthed by European archie
ologists, who have ascribed their area
as preceding the historic.
Psaee-Leving Raos, He Says. ~
"We have established the fact" de-
clares the doctor, "that there lived In
this portion Of the North American
continent a peace-loving race prior to
the time Of the Indians, as we CON-
monty apply the term. I deduce this
from the fact that the houses were
large enough to accommodate from
ten to twelve families and that the
dwellings are separated by consider
able territory. IF the race had been
warlike, the individuals would have
felt a common desire for close asso-
citation and would have built houses
In groups for mutual protection"

Hartford, COnn.-The story of the

when I took the pastorate Of the
Canton Centre Congregational church
q few years ago." said Rev. Mr. Rich
ards, II was confronted with two seri-
GUS problems.
Like all rural pastors I faced the
problem Of bringing up a family on the
small salaries paid by country churches
and the constant migration of young
men on the farms to the cities. To exc
out my salary, decided to go into the
chicken business in small way. I
studied the methods used at Storrs
Agricultural college and carried them
out to the letter with amazing results.
II then organized among my congre-
cation the Canton Centre Poultry club
and taught the members the scientific
care of birds. organized them into a
cooperative producing and selling COM
bine, with the result that it has
brought much greater degree Of pros
perity to us all.
During the last year I, as manager
Of the club, sold more than $1,000
worth Of eggs alone from the coops Of
the few members Of the club. Every
egg sold was candled and pronounced
perfect. Many were thrown away
those that showed any sign Of blood
streaks seen in so many eggs. At pres
ent we are getting 80 cents dozen
wholesale for our largest eggs. We
have found that by lighting the coops
with electricity for few hours each
night the egg production is increased
20 per cent.
