MACHINERY HAS
TAKEN DRUDGERY
OUT OF FARMING

ATLANTA, July 14.-As result
of the increased use of power and
labor saving machinery in farming
operations and the opening of new
lands well suited to machinery, the
average agricultural worker in the
United States is now able to care
for almost three times as many
acres of crops as an individual
could handle IS years ago.
A study recently made by the de-
partment of agricultural engineer
ing of the United States department
Of agriculture also shows that at the
same time, the hours of labor on
the farm have been reduced and
farmers have been relieved of much
on the monotony and drudgery
which formerly characterized their
work.
Farm and labor together account
for approximately sixty percent of

esassment That Cannihals Eat Right
KIM OF Food Stirs Big Row.
The statement made by DR.. F.
Gowland Hopkins In an address on
Biological Chemistry" at the Royal
Institution in London that in consum-
ing his own kind the cannibal was
eating exactly the right stuff" has
sent a shudder through the ranks Of
the vegetarians. DR.. Hopkins based
his statements on the assumption
that cannibal by eating his own
kind obtained just the right quality
and quantity of proteid.
When 7rstace Miles had recovered
from the Aock of being requested to
give an opinion on the subject he de-
nounced DR.. Hopkins theories as RI
diculous.
MANS. body" said the noted vege-
tartan, contains not only proteid,
but also the waste products-the re-
suit of bodily and mental work and
WORKOUT tissues.
"When man eats flesh food of
any kind he adds to his body these
acid waste products, which are hard
to get rid Of without abundant exer-
else. / admit, however, that the can
nibaI probably gets healthy exercise
by chasing his victims"
AS Mr.. Miles warmed up to his sub
iect he became enthusiastic.
"When an animal dies It's arteries
are emptied and its blood becomes
dark and unhealthy. If DR.. Hopkins
ideas were carried out scientifically
then man should eat man. But even
live man does not contain proteid
IN such concentrated form as a
Parmesan cheese.
1T is just possible, but quite UNI
proved, that the proteid of human
flesh might be better for man than
other proteids, but l would not care
to advocate the theory. The pros
poet of the unemployed being let
loose on certain members of the city
corporation would be appalling"
A correspondent has written some
interviews with celebrities on the
question of whom they would like to
eat.
Bernard Shaw, who was mosticat-
Ing the core of green apple, re-
marked between munches, that he

in his life.

Red Cross First Aid
Popular in America
AS Accidents Gain

The rapidly mounting toll from
traffic accidents has brought home to
the public the necessity OF being pre-
pared to render prompt assistance
while awaiting the doctor. During the
past year 356 chapters of the Ameri-
can Red Cross were instructing
classes in First Aid, and IN the same
period certificates were issued to
20,6O1 persons qualified by Red Cross
experts.
Many cities throughout the United
States are showing interest In secur-
ing first aid instruction for their po-
lice and fire department personnel,
and through the work Of local chap
tiers, practical results have been OBJ
tanned in such cities as Washington,
d. c.; Toledo, o.: Boston, Mass;
South Bend and Indianapolis, Ind;
Port Arthur, Texas and other commu-
mites. In cooperation with the State
authorities, intensive training in first
aid and rescue methods has been
given to State police and constabulary
members at four State training
schools.
instruction in these subjects IN
public and private schools, colleges
and universities has increased during
the year. Attention has been given to
training teachers at Institutes and
summer schools.
The Red Cross first aid railroad car
has been in continuous operation
throughout the year. It covered
10 $40 miles, visiting 1877 cities, where
1900 meetings we're conducted by the
surgeons, with a total OF 146,S27
people.
Industries particularly have avadled
themselves Of the instruction afforded
by the Red Cross. The Western Elec-
trio Company, for example, reports q

WATER SPORTS SAFER
FOR RED CROSS WORK
Expert Life-SaverS and Many
thousand Swimmers Reduce
Annual Water Toll.

Water sports in the United States
have never been so safe as they are
today, a survey of the work done by
Life-Saving experts of the American
Red Cross in the past year indicates.
Thousands Of adults and young peo-
pie were taught to swim productivity
by these experts during this period.
In addition, 1851 men, 4,187 women,
and 1924 juniors successfully passed
che rigid tests of the Life Saving Ser
vice of the Red Cross. The total thus
trained during the year-22,S92-is
6,041 more than last years results.
The total membership of the LAfe Saw
ing Corps OF the Red Cross on June
80 was 72,S1O persons.
Meeting the demand for qualified
instructors and councillors in these
camps, are the, college men and women
of the country, many devoting whole
or part of their annual vacation peri
DDS to this field. Meeting the need
Of standardized instruction in Life
Saving, First-Aid, and kindred sub
sects, the American Red Cross con-
Quoted nine Ffrst-Aid and Life-Saving
Camp Institutes this year with total
attendance Of more than 500, in Maine,
Massachusetts, New York, North Car
DINA, Indiana, Wisconsin, Oregon, and
California Representative of Red
Cross Chapters, summer camps, life
guards at municipal pools and beach
es, directors of physical education in
schools, and others Of this calibre
made up the student body.
A number of city or regional insti-
tutions were conducted also during
the winter at indoor pools to develop
local experts. The aquatic school con-
Quoted by the New York Chapter was
especially successful, it is stated. In
spired by this system, many camps,
pools, bathing beaches, etc, have
adopted in whole or in part, the Red
Cross Life Saving and water-safety
program. In the New England states
alone, more than $50 camps employ
councillors trained in these methods.
n par ldA survey 4uutCdLSS MUTE lHdA
80 cities using the Red Cross senior
test as a minimum requirement for
their municipal life guards. EAluca-
tional institutions have turned to it
with enthusiasm.
This widespread instruction be-
sides creating unprecedented numbers
Of expert life-savers, is developing a
vast body Of Americans who are at
home in the water All contributes
to safety the year-round, for swim
ming is a recognized all-year sport
today, records show.
The danger from water accidents
is ever-present however where proper
safeguards are not taken and to
broaden thds valuable Red Cross Ser
vice is one OF the reasons why in
creased membership In the Red Cross
is urged The Annual Roll Call, dur
ing which the opportunity to assist
all Red Cross work in many lines OF
endeavor is extended, will be held

Cut FlnQef--FnOHO9 RcSuiAc1s
An accident cut on the finger
caused Edison to invent the phono-
graph. or talking machine.
Mr.. Edison told the story Of this In
yention to a reDorter At the time,
he said. he was singing into tele-
phone. and in the telephones mouth
niece he had placed, for safe keeping.
a fine steel point. Suddtnly this point
cut his finger. He found, to his sur
Prise, that it had been moving here
and there and round about. guided by
the vibrations of his voice.
He placed a strip OF yellow paper
under the steel point, replaced It In
the mouthpiece and said the alphabet
The steel, while he spoke, ran over
the paper, and for each letter Of the
alphabet It made different mark,
or scratch.
This was what Mr.. Edison had
hoped for. He now held the steel
point still and drew the paper
scratches slowly over it. There was
given forth. very family, the alphabet
as he had repeated it.
Thus the principle Of the phono-
graph-the registering and the repro
duction OF the voices vibrations--was
discovered through the cutting Of q
finger. It was Edison's finger. though,
that was cut. Smiths or Browns
might have been quite hacked OF and
no phonograph would have resulted.
