ELECTRICITY
KILLS BOIL
WEEVH

ATLANTA, Ga.
nELIEF that electricity can
be harnessed and used in
the determination OF the
greatest evil to Southern agricul-
ture today-the dreaded bon
weevil-was expressed by Samuel
Hibben, manager Of the research
department of the Westinghouse
Electric and Manufacturing Com
pany. who was IN Atlanta re-
Gently conducting q study Of the
boil .weevil menace in this Sec
ton.
''Timell come when bottled
electricity will raise flowers, grow
grass, sprout seeds, and cause
practically any botanical element
to germinate." said Hibben, 'but
dearer still to the heart Of the
Southern cotton planters are the
possibilities of yoking electricity
to the gigantic task Of stamping
out the weevil"
During the last year research
work conducted by Hibben has
resulted in the actual growing of
certain flowers and vegetables
by the sole process OF electric in
ductton as a substitute for the
rays Of the sun, natures own
process. With electricity still In
its infancy, as applied to plant

tons, Hibben contends the belief
plants will actually sprout, grow.
and mature by electric attraction,
Is no longer a theory, but an &C.
complished fact.
In his experience for raising
flowers, ordinary incandescent
lights were used. he explained.
There was no element of radio
nor Of the ultraviolet ray. The
success Of the experiment depends
entirely upon the discovery of
some basic principle which will
cause the atoms or molecules,
probably some minute element Of
protoplasm, in the seeds to re-
spond to the intensive power Of
electrical attraction, the electrical
expert continued

THREE-M MINUTE JOURNEYS
BY TEMPLE MANNING
THE WONDERFUL DOCKS OF LONDON

4 MONG the most marvellous
A constructive works of man
IN are the London docks. Oc-
casionally a tourist in London
tears himself away from West
minister Abbey and the House Of
Parliament to go through the
dock district, but as a general
thing the dinginess Of commercial
London keeps such visitors away.
A dock in America means
pier constructed at the edge Of
the harbor, jutting out into the
water. Some New York docks
stick out into the stream over q
thousand feet.
London is situated on the River
Thames. which is only about a
quarter as wide as the East
river. A pier big enough to berth
an ocean liner would block The
river completely. AS modern
steamers are from fifty to a hum
dred feet wide, to berth them
along the bank would seriously
impede navigation.
The commerce Of the port Of
London is at least as great as
that Of the port Of New York.
Until the war 1t was much
greater. Probably thousand
steamers are locked at Lonoon
at one time. What's the answer?
The London docks.
The docks are vast artificial
basins. They were originally
meadows and even slum districts

river. Gigantic excavations were

The night school class is held
one night each week, with q one

them.

and warehouses were constructed
around the edges and across

AS there is strong tide In the
River Thames, entrance to the
docks is only possible at high
tide. Therefore a ship is q pris-

basins and finds her chosen berth

wracking than navigating or
bringing her safe through q

A book is living voice. 1t is

What men want is not talent
1t is purpose.
Seeing much. suffering much
and studying must are the three
pillars of learning.
The best way for q man to get
out of a lowly position is to be
conspicuously effective in it.
He who will believe only what
he can fully comprehend must
have either a very young head or
a very short creed.
That which is nearest us
touches us most. The passions
rise higher at domestic than at
imperial tragedies.

He declared that persons should
