War and rumors OF war, who
started it, who ended it, and how
things were torn loose in France on
the first Armistice day was told IN
lurid style to the High school
students assembled in the High
school auditorium, this morning by
Charles K. Johnston, local Legion
Commander and the City Editor OF
The Villas County News. That
memorable Armistice Day of 1918
left an indelible impression on
most everyone, who at that time
had reached the age of conscious
ness to the times, but it is abso-
lutely necessary to pass that I'M
print on to the generation which
was too young to realize the import
of the news at the time of the big
struggle. Every Armistice day
should be remembered in the
schools, with the cooperation OF
the American Legion-the men
who made the Armistice possible.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.


Wednesday morning, Nov. A, Rob
ert Thrun, Robert Radcliffe and
Wesley Smith performed three very
interesting science experiments be-
fore the school. Perhaps some day
some of our freshmen will be prom
inent, scientists! Who can tell?
1t any senior ever attempts to
sell you anything you might as well
buy it right away and not argue,
because you'll buy it in the end.
You see, the seniors have been
studying craftsmanship and sales
talks in English.
Beatrice McGlone, of Amigo,
visited school Thursday and Fri
day.
Isabel Leggate visited school Fri
day afternoon.
The game Friday night with
Three Lakes resulted in a victory
for Eagle Of 21-0 for the boys. The
girls game resulted in tie of 2-2.
Don't fail to come to the game
Friday night, Nov. 13 between the
Argonne boys and girls and the
Eagle boys and girls. The game
starts at 1880, and the admission
will be zoe and 35c. There will be
dancing after the game. The SEN
Tor girls are going to serve lunch.
Begin to get your costumes ready
for the masquerade which the
freshmen are going to give Nov.
25th.
Tuesday morning was the junior
assembly morning. The Juniors
gave very interesting little play
in which singing leader was en-
gaging singers. Each applicant
had to sing a little song. Who
would have thought there was so
much musical talent in the junior
class?
Last week the domestic science
girls baked bread and parkerhouse
rolls. They each took home the
bread which they baked, and ac-
cording to all reports it was very
good.

Earth in July.

as close to the circle as Polaris.
The circle runs around between

North Pole Of Sthe ecliptic, lis
situated in tina constellation
Draco, in the direction of the con.
stellation HerculesA, About A,6O0
years ago the star Alpha Dracopis
served as the NORTH. Pole star.
and was thus regarded by the
builders of the Greav Pyramid,
who left in that mighty. mass OF
masonry a long tubular passage
pointing toward the place where
Alpha Draconis could b. seen
circling around the pole Of the
heavens. In about 1000 years
to come the pole will point within
a. few degrees to the brilliant
star Vega in the constellation
Now. IT Is evident that Wien
the pole points toward the ONO

from that toward which 1t nov
points, the position of the north
ern hemisphere of the earth will
be reversed with regard to the
sun; in this way. namely, that
whereas the north pole of rEe
earth now leans 235 degrees sun
ward in the month OF June. it will
then have the same inclination
sunward in the month Of De.
cember. 49,.
So our winter, now centering in
January, will then center in July.
Along with this will come a
change in the relative length of
summer and winter, and in the
amount of heat received by our
hemisphere during those seasons,
for at present we have our winter
when the earth is nearest the sun;
but then winter will occur, for US,
when the earth is farthest from
the sun.
So far as the procession of the
equinoxes is concerned the com.
plete reversal would require $4,000
years, but there is another phe-
nomena, namely. shifting round
of the position of the perihelion
nearest the SUM point Of the
earth's orbit, called the motion 1T

WORDS FROM
WISE MEN

Sincerity and honesty carry
one through many difficulties
which all the arts he can invent
would never help Him through.
Strive, while improving your
one talent, to enrich your whole
capital as a man. It is in this
way that you escape from
the wretched Observation-Disclosures
which is the characteristic OF
everyone who cultivates his spe!
cialty alone.
The ways of weli-doing are in
number even as many as are the
kinds Of voluntary actions: SO
that whatsoever we do in this
world, and may do 1t ILL, we
show ourselves therein by we'll
doing to be wise.
Mutability of temper and uncun-
sistency with ourselves is the
greatest weakness of human ma.
ture,
An instinct is an agent which
perform blindly and ignorantiy

nothing to do. So naturally. Ugh
Ugh sat on his shape good deal
and made faces at himself for
lack of better occupation.
This morning, however, there
was a strangeness about Ugh.
Ugh's moping. Something was
happening behind that heavy, low
ering brow of his. Hour after
hour he sat making scratches
with a bit of flint upon the cave
wall. Some of the scratches went
up, some went down. There
seemed no sense to Ugh Ugh's
scratching. The other bucks
crowded the cave entrance in q
hairy, bow-legged, gibpering group
and laughed at him-their thick
lips drawn back over strong vel.

ling in the deep recesses under
their shaggy brows. But even
their jeers did not break through
Ugh-Ugh's absorption.
Suddenly he began to scratch
more quickly and now the lines
moved in a plan, faltering at
first, but with increasing deter
rnination. The other males stop

Ugh was doing something strange

more plain. Why-was it? Yes,
1t was mammoth! The line

mammoth on the cave wall--a
fierce, charging mammoth, such
as only the braVest Of them would
dare face! There, in Ugh-Ugh's
scratched line, it lived as they
had seen it, live in the jungle.
They grunted, pointed in curiosity
Ugh had wrought scratched
magic!
Then Ugh.Ugh turned about
and began to chant. In the flick
ering light of the fire his dark
face glowed like red granite.
His voice rose in mighty storm
Of words. He told of his fierce
fight with the mammoth In the
depth of the jungle-of the charge
of the cruel tusks, OF the bleed
ing wound in his side, of the
brave thrust Of the spear and the
laundering crash Of the great
dying body. The hairy males lis

Curiosity and Ignorance of
facts lead me to ask what is
meant by the procession of
the equinoxcs,' which you
mention in writing of the vari-
alton OF the length of days and
nights in conjunction with the
change OF seasons. The equi-
noxes, you say, require about
$4,000 years to complete one
revolution. Does that mean
that In $4,000 years (half rev.
olution) We will have winter

winter now visits us in?

ming top. The top spins with
binding rapidity as it rests on
the point of it's peg, but the peg
itself, carrying the body of the
top. swings round much more
slowly in a relatively large circle.
!. In like manner the earth whirls
with relative swiftness on it's
axis or rotation, but that axis 1t
self, like the peg. of the top, turns
slowly in comparison, so that
while one rotation of the earth
on the axis is effected every
twenty-four hours, 1t takes more
than a thousand times twenty
four years for the axis to swing
around its circle of revolution.
Play little with top and you
will quickly perceive the whole
principle underlying the preces-
sion of the equinoxes.
Gravitation is the force behind
both of these phenomena: in the
case of the top gravitation pulls
down upon the leaning body, but
because of its spin, the top turns
around with it's peg instead OF
falling: in the case of the earth,
the sun and the moon pull upon
the swollen equator of the globe
to bring it parallel to the ecliptiC,
but the response Is only turning

direction in which its poles point

QUITO is
ODD TOWN

NlHE architecture of Quito,
j Ecuador, might not meet
with the full approval of our
most modern architects, but there
is one thing for which 1t can be
completely relied upon. 1t will
undoubtedly furnish you with the
interesting element Of novelty.
One of the most startling ele-
ments or surprise in Quito Is the
fact that you can walk to the end
of almost any street and find that
it ends in canyon! a mountain
or perhaps just the open. country
Quito is built high up on the
mountains of the equatorial re-
gion, so that one must climb end
lessIy up and around the peaks
in the little. toy-like trains be-
fore one catches a glimpse OF 1t.
But. once there, its quaint charm
repays your arduous travelling.
Even though the streets Ct
Quito may be filthy--just mass
OF cobblestones with a strip of
flat flags down the center-the
dwellings of mud blocks are suf.
ficient to recompense for having
soiled your feet.
Churches are more abundant
in Quito than stores. for while
you may walk the length of the
town to purchase, the most ordi
nary commodities, you cannot
walk more than a. few steps
without finding a church. Many
of them are really beautifully
decorated, with scrolls Of gold
and silver that reach from the
floor up to the vaulted ceiling.
Converts and monasteries are
equally numerous. They serve as
schools as well as religious or
CARNATIONS.
