OLD SCOWS Still
CROSS White RIVER
Boat That Ferried Lincoln and
His Family Still Works

Chicago, Aug "A scow of the
same sort as that in which young
Abraham Lincoln and his home-seek-
ing parents were ferried across the
White River near Petersburg, Ind.
plies there today, propelled in the
same manner by the current, accord
ing to DR.. William E. Barton of Oak
Park, ILL.,, moderator of the National
Council of Congregational churches
The ferryman, DR.. Barton says,
doubtless like the ferryman of Lin
coins day, manipulates cables from
boat to shore and swings his craft so
that the current, striking it at an
angle, drives it In the direction de-
sired. He shortens one cable and
slackens another until his PROV points
to the shore he seeks. The White
River does the rest.
This survival Of pioneer method was
witnessed by DR.. Barton on a motor
trip from Springfield, KY, to SPRING
field, ILL.,, in which he traced the life
journey Of Lincoln and his parents
from the place of the parents mar
riage to the place of the sons burial.
While the White River ferry Is rep
resentative of early conditions, the
ferry where the Lincoln family crossed
the Ohio from Kentucky into Indi-
ana is representative of combina-
ton of the modern and the primitive,

ELIMINATION OF
RADIO HANDICAP
tanning and Interference May
Be Entirely Cut Out

London, Aug. 8. - An instrument
which, it is claimed, marks the most
important advance In wireless tele-
graphy yet made, is described by its
inventor, Frenchman named Yves
Marrec, as eliminating Jamming and
Interference and reducing the cost OF
wireless messages by at least one
third.
The new device receives and prints
wireless messages on tape, something
which, 1t is claimed, has never before
been accomplished.
M. Marco employs supplementary
apparatus consisting of series Of
low frequency valves, which elimin-
ates all obtruding sounds one by one,
with the result that the message for
which the machine is tuned in
comes out as clearly as though there
were only one operating station in the
world. Besides suppressing "paraa-
tic" noises, the apparatus completely
eliminates every interfering message
sent out from other transmitting sta
tions.
In an official test for the British
government recently, lHe french IN
ventor SUBMITTED his machine to the
most severe conditions. He received
messages from the powerful station
near Port Jefferson, Long Island, free
of all interference or jamming. He
chose for the test an ordinary office in
one of the nosiest parts of London,
with electric trains and motor traffic
running all around and under it.
Moreover he had no outside aerial.
The purified" messages were receiv-
ed so distinctly that the sounds could
be heard several yards from the
earpieces.
In messages from the United States,
M. Marrec explained, each letter has
now to be repeated three times and
each word twice, after which they
still require to be deciphered by
keen expert. Under the new system,
according to the inventor, a message
need be sent only once, and it is
recorded in ink on paper. Transmit
ting stations of immense power and
great cost, such as the American and
British governments porpose erecting,
could be replaced, he said, by series
Of lower power stations transmitting

DECREASE In BIRTHS
IS SERIOUS In FRANCE
The Peril of Greater, Stronger Ger
many Overwhelming a Weaker
France Causes French Worry

Paris. Aug 8. The peril of d
greater. stronger Germany over
whelming a steadily weaker France
by sheer force of numbers, looms in
creasingly large In the pessimism OF
French sociologists studying the
shrinking birthrate Of their country.
The increase of 100000 in popula-
ton for 1920 small as 1t was, aroused
the hope of the government and the
public. for 1t was generally believed
that the rush OF wartired soldiers and
women anxious to marry and estab-
lish homes, was the turning point.
They have been disappointed. The
net excess of births over deaths the
following year was only 5000 and the
results of last year. still being tabulat-
ed, are rather dreaded by sociologists
and economists
President Millerand not long ago
spoke of the birth rate question as
that of life itself for France" His
efforts, he said were devoted to fur
thering the creation of homes and The
rearing of children.
Frances plight in world Of war is
likened to that Of the little boy who
grows slowly while all his compan-
ions develop like weeds In the 10th
century France had half the popula-
ton of Europe; at the end Of the 18th
she had only one fourth, and today
she has little more than one-tenth.
Since 1871 deaths have exceeded
births, and only immigration has
saved the race from rapid extinction
by a loss that frequently was quar-
ter Of million a year.
Whatever the reasons for the half
century Of decreasing birthrate, the
present shortage of living quarters,
the vicissitudes of life, and the lower
ed moral standards are blamed today
by students for the condition that per-
sists In spite of a really national cam
raign for more children.

REFORMERS URGED
TO CEASE LABORS
Says ReiormerS Do More Harm
Than They Do Good

London, Aug. 3.-Social reformers
as a class do much more harm than
good, according to Professor Leonard
Darwin. and society would improve
much faster If they ceased to worry
about It and let 1t go its own way.
Professor Darwin is a son of the
great Charles Darwin, and It is nat
ural that he should hold strong views
on the survival of the flttest and how
this best can be accomplished. He
says that the misguided efforts of
many sincere and earnest social re-
formers really result in encoura gins
the continuance of race inferiority and
deterioration, which is just the reverse
OF what they are trying to do. In a
recent speech before the Eugenic Edu-
cation society Of which he is presi-
dent. he dwelt upon the harm he
thought social reformers were doing.
Mate Selection" was the title Of
Professor Darwin's address. He was
not sure that mate selection, in the
present state of society, was good for
the future Of the race, and argued
that when the At married the At they
tended to have smaller families, while
the Inferior people continued produce
Ing unfit types which became more
marked.
To secure human progress" he
said; 1.-THE inferior types must be
eliminated, and all that should be
demanded Is that this process be made
as little painful as possible" Pity for
others and solicitude for Aheir liberty
the speaker regarded as among the
things that constituted obstacles In the
way of racial improvement.
"The philanthropists Of today, how
look on one side of the question, and
entirely ignore the racial effects OF
the reforms they are advocating"
Both out-of-work doles to those
constitutionally incapable Of work, and
outdoor relief generally, If given
without regard to the probability of
parenthood in the future, would d.
rectly tend to promote the inferiority
OF the race in the future.
Motherhood endowment to the ma
turally superior and unfit alike, these
and other methods Of relieving dis
tress, would have the same result, he
commended.
Altogether, as viewed by Professor
Darwin, there seemed to be a pretty
blue outlook for the world genrally,
and even enlightened eugenists ap-
peared to be able to find little comfort
In his views.
But Professor Darwin said his OBJ
lection to mate selection would dis
appear If "by some method less cruel
than that of natural selection the in
ferior stocks could be made to multi.
ply less quickly than the superior"

ring along his route. On the Ohio, a
small low-powered gasoline launch
has been hitched to the scow; 1t does
not propel the scow. but replacing the
cables heads 1t at the right angle OF
the current, which furnishes the real
power.
Similarly, log church one attend
ed by Lincoln's relatives remains a
log church. but few would appreciate
1t as 1t has been weather-boarded.
Life is still primitive in parts of the
Lincoln country, DR.. Barton states. but
schools and churches are better
housed. Tractors are unknown in the
broken farm country of southern In
diana, he adds, although motor cars
are numerous on the highways. many
Of which follow trails blazed by Lin
coin.

UNIONS LOSING MEMBERS

London, Aug. 3.-Trade unions in
England have lost 315,5o3 members

The funds of the unions have fallen
from f254,2se to f94,3ss and the an
nual revenue from fs5,450 to f64,SS3.

CHURCH TOLD OF.
 H|GH SCHOOL PLANS
Memory Of Two EnsIey Women Perpetuated By
 Planting Of Myrtle Trees
ENSLEY BUREAU l THE AGE-HERALD ! EnSIav Ala Oct. 22

The congregation of the First Bap- tist church of Ensley was officially appraised Sunday morning of plans of it's deacons to assist in bringing to Ensley the Howard High school. The explanation consisted of com plete renersal by Rev. David M. Gardner, pastor of the church, of suggestions, preliminary confer cnces, and other details that have led up to the present situation. The congregation must pass upon the proposition of the deacons before church hence the conversation which was feature of the morning serv- ice Sunday.
 It was announced following the meeting that the question of vote had been passed over two weeks, The reason was that next Sunday all of the local pulpits will be oc- cupied by visiting Methodist clergy men and hence the Baptist congrega- next Sunday on such a plan. The vote, however, will follow the Sun day after.
 pr. Gardner, in his summary of the details incident to the Howard High said that the high school was authorized by the officials of the church at it's meeting in Cullman last september. At that tune the sum of s5O,000 was suggested as neces- sary for beginning the school. In August Mir Gardner had occasion to suggest to some of the leaders of this church the desirability of es- tablishing the high school in Ensley. Conversations on the subject fol- lowed, wherein 1t was pointed out that the local congregation planned to build a new church costing $780, 900 and would therefore abandon the present building and two additional church structures. St was suggested that a happy solution of the building disposal when the new church was ready, would be to give the buildings and the church prop erty to Howard college for modest sun and in this way bring to Ensley a most desirable school and at the same time promote the interest of Howard by a liberal property dona- tion.
 It Is expected that by the time the congregation is requested to pass on the proposition two weeks hence, that the Kiwanis club of Ensley and the Ensley Associated merchants will have also passed upon the plans and that the citizens of Birmingham, west of Fairview will enter hear tily into a campaign to secure $25,- O00 which is the civic donation ne- cessary. This sum Is to be matched dollar for dollar by Howard col lege, not to consider the value of the property of the Baptist congreg- ation.
