the heritage of its history. These
are the peace-time defenders Of the
nation. And they have only begun
to make their power felt.
What prouder heritage can you
give your children than the record
of the part. no matter how simple or
how humble. which their forbears had
in the making of a great nation? In
these patriotic societies the great
granddaughter of colonel ranks no
higher than the descendant of that
Colonels orderly. 1t frequently hap

Lucky Swede Follows
Hunch About Gold

Tonopah. Ney.. Jan. 25-(By a. Po
Pete Oslund, known as that lucky
Swede," is back in Tonopah after a
long visit to his native Sweden.
Some years ago Pete worked as
leaser in the Halifax mine here He
Fad 'labored hard and found nothing.
But he had q bunch that there was
high grade ore in the Halifax. He
stuck to his bunch, and refused to
abandon the lease after his partner
had declined to share the cost of one
more round of shots. He pawned his
watch for the price Of a few more
sticks of powder. Two days later he
opened up rich ore on the 1000 foot
level.
II was a veritable iewelry shop.
The lease had but 80 days to run, and
50 Pete stayed on the job night and
day lie dug out $4,000, which
seemed to him quite a tidy sum. He
then retired quietly to the homeland
for prolonged rest.
Recently word reached him that
some of his old pals had made new
gold strike in the Cow. Springs
range 80 miles from Tonopah. This
gave him another bunch, and he is
bacl; on the Nevada desert. testing
tie power of his luck to repeat.

Government Beer Prices
Favored by CZecho

Prague. Jan. ga p. by MaiD-
A row over the price of beer is the
chief topic Of public interest in the
Czech capital these days. The brew
cries and the saloon and restaurant
keepers want to see the decree Of the
ministry Of food rescinded. by which
maximum price is set upon the
beverage and the calculation of costs
is made by the government. The liQ-
uor interests want to do their own
calculating. and to charge whatever
the traffic will bear.
In sharp opposition to them are
tire consumers organizations, which
have urged the retention of govern
ment regulation. a recent public
hearing held by the ministry of food
broke up in a row, both sides be-
coming SO embittered that the gov
eminent representative, Dr. Ira, had
to close 1t with the remark that he
would report the arguments of both
sides to the minister Of food.

Seeing the Eclipse
AS Did We Ancients

Diogenes appears to have been
motived by skepticism when he
set out with a lantern in quest of
an honest man. Another dis
tinguished man is supposed to
have been in an unduly creduIous
state Of mind when he came
down town Saturday morning
with a lantern to make sure of
finding his way about, he having
read in some of the newspapers
NOT in the X. J. by the way
that midnight darkness would
settle down when the eclipse
should approach totaIity.
He had reason for confidence
in that lantern: it bore the marks
Of long usage and the handieraft
Of an earlier day. Indeed it is
thought to have been used in
Winsiow at the time Of the pre-
vious eclipse and was an ancient
heirloom then. Presumably it
once was carried on the end Of
pole by the night watchmen of
Winslow in the long gone days
when Indians in Maine were moro
of a pest than potato bugs are
today. Needless to add that this
equipped the distinguished citizen
saw the eclipse. corona and all.

The athletic stadium at stanford
University, which seats $4,000, is ex-
pected to be enlarged to accommo-

This would provide the largest
football stadium in the country. Plans
for the enlargement followed the big
game with California Nov. p, when
10000 people overflowed the Califor-
MIA stadium at Berkeley, which seats
$4,000. Those who could not get into
the stadium occupied a hilltop just
above it. Next fall the game will be
played in the Stanford stadium, and
efforts will be made to take care of
the throng sure to want tickets.
The Stanford stadium was built
five years ago. Designed by profess
sors in the engineering department OF
the university. it was followed out OF

against terra firma. The earth for
the sides was thrown up from the ex-
cavation made for the playing field.
