THE main thing is to keep
boasting for your town. 1t is Your
town. You are helping to make
it what it is, good or bad, by your
indifference or by your example.
Your good work is needed to make
your town more attractive, more
decent. Every blade Of grass you
help to grow, not vocally but by
shirt sleeve endeavor, adds much
to the sum total of the towns
worth. The shrub. the plant
yield their proof of your thought
fulness. The interest you take in
the towns progress and advance
ment is sure to help. No man
gets more out of a town than he
puts into it, when every return is
summed up just as he finds return
ing what he puts into church or a
lodge or a club. Every seed
brings return. good or bad. What
shall your harvest be?-The
Cheraw Herald.

Air Jets.

A plan to abolish the propellers Of
airplanes Is the subject now Of labora
tory research. Air compressed and
mixed with fuel In combustion cham.
ber would be projected through a
nozzle at the rear Of the airplane, and
the reaction Of Its discharge would
drive the machine through the air
Though 1t is calculated that high
speed might possibly be obtained
through this method of Jet propulsion
the mechanism would be heavy, and
experiments 10 far show that the con.
sumption Of fuel would be in excess of
that required for ordinary propeller
drive

WEATHERIHa TEsTs::oF STONE
Alternate Freezing and Thawing En-
ploysd At Bureau Of Standards
In Washington.

Weathering tests, consisting Of freez-
ing and thawing Of the specimens until
disintegration occurs. are in progress
At the bureau Of standards on twenty
two samples Of limestone and twenty
three Of sandstone. Some of the best
limestones have withstood 800 freez-
ings without showing any appreciable
amount OF decay. while the poorer
grades Of this material were disinte-
grated BY 100 freezings, says the Scien-
tific American. Tests on the sand
stones have only recently been started,
and SO far the samples have shown no
great amount Of decay.
A number Of limestone and sand.
stone specimens are also being tested
by soaking In a Is per cent solution Of
sodium chloride and drying afterward
to obtain a crystallization of the salt
in the pores Of the stone.
This produces an action similar to
that Of frost. but more severe. 1t has
been found that limestones which
stood up under several hundred of
the freezings were disintegrated by
less than 100 crystallizations in the salt
test. However, the actual disintegra.
tion seems to be similar to that pro.
duced by the action Of frost, and
hence 1t Is believed that there is
possibility of using this method as
an accelerated weathering test.

Crumbs Swept Up.

If word to the wise is sufficient be
brief when you talk to US.
OF course. the man always at the
bottom should not be lonesome There
are many new ones passing him on
their way up.
lf'it isn't worth telling it isn't worth
having for a secret
A great man knows his real friends,
because they never try to work him.
There's reason why swelled heads
never burst. Too much kerosene in the
gas.
Always admit that your wife knows
more than yon do. Then she won't
hesitate to tell you what a smart fellow
you are.

MARKED STRENGTH.
May Soon Be Made Eligible
as Savings Bank Invest
ments in New York State.

Holders OF Baltimore and Ohio rail-
much gratifled by the strength Of their
securities this week in the face of
general weakness pretty much
throughout the whole bond list
These securities have been getting
firmer ever since 1t was known that
an attempt would be made in the New
York legislature to amend the saving
bank law Of that state so as to restore
their eligibility as saving-bank invest
ments.
The law passed few days ago and
Is now awaiting the governors sigma
ture. AS 1t was backed by most or
the savings banks Of New York state.
the governor is expected to sign 1t in
due time. This has accounted for the
recent strength of the bonds, which,
although not quite UP to the highest for
to three points above the low to which
they fell about the time they were
stricken from the savings bank list.
