RI. s,rthouake Belt.

The immunity Of Great Britain from
earthquakes is due to Its geographical
situation. 1t lies at least 1.OO0 miles
north Of the nearest point Of the great
earthquake belt" which seismologlsts
have located and traced right round
the globe. This troubled zone runs
roughly parallel to the equator through
Japan, China. Asia Minor, the Mediter-
ranean countries, the Canary ISLANDS
md Central America, with an auxiliary
belt running southwark along the west
coast of South America. Every big
earthquake OF modern times has hap
pened somewhere along this belt, and
generally when the sun and moon have
been so placed that their combined
tull along the critical region has been
at maximum. We owe to the Japa-
uese, whose country is so often the seat
Of a disastrous earthquake, the -inyen-
tion Of the seismogruph and the most
thorough study Of earthquake phe-
nomena.

FOX HUNT RESULTS IN
TRAGEDY AND ROMANCE

A plain little red fox is responsible
for the big dramatic twist that takes
place in the stirring plot Of William
Dudley Pelley's story "The Light in
the Dark" which. with Hope Hamp-
ton as the charming star. is the First
National screen attraction at the Peer
less Theatre Wednesday and Thurs
day of next week.
The incident which results in q re-
markable romance between poor
little girl of the tenements and a
wealthy New Yorker occurs in an old
English forest, when J. Warburton
Ashe follows the animal with his dogs
to the ruins of an ancient abbey.
In trying to dig out the fox Ashe
comes upon goblet Of strange de-
sign which he takes back to America
with him.
The report gets out that the cup is
the long missing Holy Grail. 1t is
stolen and the search that follows
result in a most extraordinary series
of events, eliminating in a tragedy
and the happy reunion Of parted
lovers.

Mr.. Ralph Robb.
Supt. Phillips County High School,
Holyoke. Colo.
Dear Mr.. Robb:
After having inspected the high
schools at Holyoke and Haxtun and 60
ing over the data concerning other
branches of the Phillips County High
School beg to submit the following
report.
At Holyoke found all accrediting
standards Of 10th the University and
the North Central Association being
adequately observed. I was especially
impressed with the cooperative atti-
tude OF the student body and the re-
sulting smoothness with which the
school appears to run. A spirit such
as this almost always assures an
effective school, / consider the eiti-
cheney of instruction to be generally
good and in scme cases especially so.
/ am not able to make positive de-
cision as to the weakest feature Of the
school. am inclined to believe that
it may lack sufficient amount of stu
dent participation in recitations. In
my opinion this best can be improved
by definite attempt at socialized
recitations and supervised study. |
suggest that these be given considera-
tion in planning the continued i'm
provement of the school.
was also well pleased with the con-
iition 1 observed at the Haxtun
school. The newness of the school
and the resulting lack of tradition de-
prives it of the atmosphere of sta
bility which is so evident at Holyoke.
Because this tradition is just forming
the condition of the school at this time
is most important. observed some
remarkable good teaching and have
seldom or never observed a group of
teachers who were so much concerned
about their own efficiency and so eager
for suggestions concerning its posi-
BILE improvement. AS | see it the
most serious problem facing these
teachers is the development of unity
of purpose and group consciousness
within the student body.
As result of my visit | recognize
some difficulties which had not rec
ognized before and which l believe
are not recognized by the High School
Committee. shall call the attention
of the Committee to these matters at
its next meeting. Your attitude
toward meeting the standards is ap-
preciated.
Yours very truly.

BETTER TO BE FoREAaNDED
Few Advance Who Allow Themselves
to Become Addicted to tho
Habit Of Dliatoriness.

We probably all know people who
seem to be, as they express 1t. al
ways in rush, yet who are always
just little late. They find apparently
almost a pleasurable excitement In
putting of till the last moment the per-
formance of necessary tasks and then
executing them under high pressure.
No doubt there Is something stimulat-
ing In having to accomplish certain re-
suits within given time, but good
many persons In allottlng their time
seem to mistake the harassing for the
stimulating.
Every teacher knows that, IL on a
Tuesday he assigns certain task to
be completed by the following Tues
day. considerable percentage Of the
class will begin work upon II on Mon
day evening. He knows too that there
is very small fraction Of The class
who will set to work upon II immedi-
aicly. He can soon tell which OF his
pupils are the forehandel and which
the dilatory workers. 1t may be that
the forehandcd workers Will not al
WAYS do the best work. Some OF the
dull pupils are sure to be among the
forehanded ones; they have found that
they have to be, in order TO keep up
at nil; and often among the disatory
pupils there are the brightest minis.
But lf not overcome, the habit of tiia-
torlness will eventually slow up nat
urally bright and active mind, and the
habit Of forehandedness. II maintained,

CHANGE IN TIME SCHEDULE
OF HoLYokE HIGH SCHOOL

The students at the, High School
have recently voted by an exception
ally large majority to change the time
of the session beginning at S:4o in the
morning. dismissing at 11:45; assem-
bling again at l2:45 and dismissing at
$3.50 in the evening.
This does not cut the time Of the
session and does accommodate students
who are working their way through
school. makes it possible for country
students to get home earlier in the
evening and also gives more time for

curlou, Hedoehoos,

There are several living specimens
in "zoos," Of the 'tenrec." the hedge
hog Of Madagascar. It Is said that
stuffed specimens in museums give no
adequate idea of these very curious
creatures. Their resemblance to hedge
hogs rests only upon their possession
of a spiny covering. The shape Of
their bodies resembles that OF an In
flated globe fish. They are insectivor-
ous, and are declared to be restricted
to the Island Of Madagascar. The
specimens seen In this country are re-
markable for their habit Of yawning.

NEW DESIGNS
FOR CURRENCY

Secretary Of the Treasury An
drew w. Melton's approval of the
new designs for paper money, UNI
der consideration for more than a
year, has been annouced at the
treasury department and many new
bills of distinctive type and marking
soon will be in circulation.
The new designs at first will affect
only United States notes, silver GER
tificates and federal reserve notes in
denominations up to 500, with the
exception of the unpopular" two
dollar note, but it is hoped later to
extend the new designs-amounting
almost to program of STANDARDIZED
tion-to national bank notes and
ultimately to the rare gold certif-
ficates.
Working to make the job of the
cnunterfeiter less remunerative,
treasury experts chose the method
Of standardizing designs, giving one
denomination of all kinds of cur
rency one distinctive design for face
and back so that those persons into
whose possession the money comes
may recognize instantly if altera-
ton has been attempted.
The faces of the new bills will car
ry portraits of well-known figures in
American history, mostly presidents,
and the best known faces have been
chosen for the bills most used. The
one-dollar bill, for instnce, will have
Washington's portrait; the five Lin
coins and the ten Jackson's Cleve-
lands likeness will appear on the
twenty-dollar bills, while for the fif-
ties and one hundreds the portraits
of General Grant and Benjamin
Franklin respectively have been
selected.
The whole design, with the excep-
ton Of the portrait and the over
printing, therefore, will be uniform,
and the difficulty of raising" bills
to higher denominations Chief Nor
an, of the secret service believes,
will be greatly increased.

"A WEEVTL CATCHER
THAT CATCHES EN-
Crisp Farmer Has a Home
Made Continuance That
Has Proven a Success.

The Cordele News reports that H.
K. Dowdy, who is a quite but prac-
tical farmer of the Sandy Mount
community of Crisp county, manu-
featured an apparatus all his own to
fight the boil weevil. and in his own
mind, although he is not blowing it
to others, met with splendid success.
MIR. Dowdy simply and casually
refers to it as his "boll weevil catch
err" and says he caught them by the
thousands. He says he did not get
it made until late, but when he did
get it made and where he used it,
he said, he is making half bale of
cotton to the acre, and he believes
his "weevil catcher" helped out in
the result.
BY the Handful.
The "weevil catcher" is a simple
contrivance and cost practically
nothing but little labor and effort
to make it. He took just a small
dry goods box, something more than
a foot wide and possibly nearly two
feet long, and put some small roller
wheels underneath to help glide it
on the ground, took all of one side
off the box except one strip, a por-
ton of two ends off, put pan of
kerosene in to hold the weevils when
he caught them, attached it to his
pillow, so arranged that the cotton
stalks would be forced in the box
and just naturally shake the weevils
off and into the Catcher"
By this simple method he caught
weevils by the thousands, dumped
them out on a sheet and could pick
them up by the "double hauds-full."
He said he was a little late in put
ting it into operation, but even
where he used it some he would
make half bale to the acre. A
neighbor used it on five acres and
VIII Hletho AlOIe COCCOII OH LIE I'VE
acres than on the balance of his
two-horse farm.
Mr.. Dowdy's "boll weevil catcher
is at least unique and different from
anything yet on the market. 1t is
not really on the market, it is simply
his homemade device. He thinks
he may be able to further perfect
it by another season, when he will
be largely independent of the weevil
and it's mischievous work. But he
never does and will not yet depend
upon all cotton.

U.S.. TOPAY BURIAL
EXPENSES OF VETS

A circular letter from M. Bryson,
manager of the Veterans Bureau in
Atlanta, has been sent to all of the
organizations of veterans of wars in
which the United States participated,
outlining the proper method of APP
plying for burial expenses to be fur
nished by the Federal Government
to all ex-service men honorably dis
charged. The letter is in compliance
with an order issued after passage
of the bill by Congress providing for
burial expenses for ex-service men
who face interment in a pauper'a
grave.
