Forty-six years ago there was but one
telephone in the world the one which Bell
invented; there were two telephone en-
ployees, Bell and his assistant. Today
there are 100000 instruments in this
country alone, II 900 central Offices, 49,,
100000 miles of wire, working force of
100000 persons, and general telephone
plant the value of which is more than
$4,000, 100000. The British Select Com
mittce on Telephone Service, March p,
1922 reported that there was one telephone
for AZ persons in Great Britain, one for
IS in the city of London, and one for
eight in the United States, and it strongly
recommended that the telephone and tele-
graph be separated from British postal func-
tons. The development and popularizing
of the telephone in America have been due
not to Government effort but to private
initiative. The 19,OOO,OOO,0OO messages
sent annually are an eloquent example of
effective business management.-Ex.

WHEN ANDY LEWIS FOUGHT
CHIEF CORNSTALK

The battle of Point Pleasant on Septem-
Der TO- 1774, was the first all-American"
battle ever fought on this continent.
Europeans had taken part in all important
engagements before-French and Indians
against British and Americans But when
Andy Lewis and his borderers battled with
Chief Cornstalk and his Shawnees, it was
strictly a native affair.
Lewis was born in Ireland, but he had
come to this country while still child,
and he was no less an American than the
frontiersmen he led He fought with
George Washington in the French and In
dian war and he became one of the
greatest leaders of the colonial troops. He
was six feet two inches tall and powerful.
Lewis was chosen by Lord Dunmore in
1774 to lead picked body of men against
the Shawnees while Dunmore attacked
them from another direction. Chief Corn
stalk knew the two armies were coming
and decided to defeat one before the other
could join it-a favorite trick of Napoleon.
The Shawnees attacked Lewis army
early one morning Lewis had taken out
his pipe when the first shot was fired He
coolly finished lighting his pipe and then
gave orders to his men, who rushed to
meet the Indians.
Both sides fought Standardization"
lodging from tree to tree and taking ad-
vantage of every bit of cover. The fight
ing was at close range and in the smoke
filed forest frontiersman and Indian came
hand to hand-tomahawk against hunting
knife.
Late in the afternoon the Indians gave
way, but there was no rout. Cornstalk
was too good a general for that and the
Americans paid dearly for every foot of
ground they won. That night Lewis held
possession of the battlefield, but he had
won it at terrible COSTS men killed and
100 wounded. Andy Lewis and his bor-
derers had won the greatest Indian battle
in early American history.
Andy Lewis did net have a chance to
make name for himself in the War of the
Revolution which soon followed. He was
passed over for generals of less ability and
he died in 1880, an embittered, broken
hearted old man. His opponent, Corn
stalk, met with fatal ending. He came
to Ohio, in 1777, on friendly mission and
was murdered by mob of soldiers in
revenge for the death of comrade who
had been killed by Indians.-Ex.

along the waters edge and perched among
the rocky crags These and few fisher
mems boats were the only signs of life,
outside our own activities, in contrast
with the rolling Arctic Ocean and the
jagged, mountainous coast over which the
oblique rays of the lowering sun reflected
an iridescent splendor from the restless
waves, the snowy peaks and few heecy,
lnackereed clouds high above
Anchoring close to the storm SCARED base
of North Cape we went ashore in skiffs
and laboriously climbed, by zig gag path,
to the top of its bold head land towering
thousand feet above the sea. In this
latitude, seventy-one degrees eleven feet,
forty-one inches north, the sun does not 60
below the horizon from June 10th to
August 18th. Being few days early did
lot detract from the soemnity of the sur
roundings, for the day, or should it be
termed night, was unclouded, the atmos-
phere crystal clear, revealing view too
limitless for mortal mind to fully grasp,
or this pen to adequately describe. In
front vast expense of ocean, nothing
more, under foot stupendous cliffs backed
by still higher peaks in the distance, and
over all quietude, grandeur, that al
ternately inspired and oppressed by its
awesome immensely Across the northern
sky the sun swung to the west; as our
watches showed twelve it was due north
third of its diameter dipped below the
skyline; moments hesitation and it began
to rise toward the east, new day born!
Such spectacles are conducive to medita-
ton. How small our boat looked down
below, how infnitesimal mankind and his
boasted accomplishments, compared to the
wonders of the universe. We left the
lofty observatory feeling we had caught
a glimpse of omnipotence through the
realization of our own insignifcance.
To give more than a brief outline of
the return trip would extend this paper be-
yond the customary time allotment. Much
could be said of the picturesque scenes
near Vestraalen, Helgeland, and Torghat-
ten, also of the stops made at Tromso,
Svolvier, Bodo, Christiansund, Molde and
the city of Bergen with its famous fske
tarvet (fsh market), but it would, in gen.
eral, be but reiteration of ideas already
expressed. There is a similarity and still
a distinct difference in the rugged, pictures
que scenes along its 1,O75 mile length;
scenes that left such deep impressions that
we hope to some day refreshen our time
cbscured recollections by more prolonged
visit to Norway.

wyoming Good Enough for Me
BY G. o. Stephenson,

They talk of California,
They say the climates grand.
They sing of old New Hampshire,
Also OF Dixie Land.
They sing of old Georgia,
And sunny Tennessee.
I'll sing of old Wyoming,
It's good enough for me.
In Nebraska there's a cyclone,
In Kansas there's flood,
While down in old Missouri
They wade knee deep in mud.
In Texas there's a terror Of
Submersion by the sea.
In Wyoming we have neither;
rs good enough for me.
The east coast has It's hurricanes.
The west coast has Its fogs,
The north is full of snow and Ice
The south is full OF bogs;
But for living in Wyoming
My reasons first are three:
There's sunshine, health and happi
ness:
Its good enough for me.
