Any mans life is of value as increases the life force OF
the succeeding generation.
The Hghlanders organization seeks to strengthen the
health and physical of the boys and also their

GARRETT P. SERVISS TELLS OF
HARVESTING OLD NEPTUNE
Tides of Bay of Fundy Can Be Used in Driving
Machinery and Lighting Roads.

Fundy, would indeed be a sin-a
sin against the kind of God indi-
Gated in the parable of the
talents"
Engineers, / understand, have
estimated that as much as 700, 900
horsepower of energy may be de-
rived from the utilization of the
high tides along the eastern part
of the Maine coast.
Those tides. owing to the form
of the coast line, are among the
most effective in putting a brake
on the rotating earth. 1t is the
captured and transformed energy
of that rotation that it is pro
posed to utilize. The result Will
he something like running a sew
ing machine by means of a pres
sure connection with the fly-whee'
of some enormous engine.
Energy of Tide
The bare possibility of using
the energy of the tide exists, to
a greater or lesser degree, along
all sea coasts. and attempts at
utilization have been made IN
many places. But specially ia
vorable local circumstances are
required to insure success on
large scale. The underlying prln-
ciple is not unlike that at Nj
agara. The Niagara waters are
lifted up through the agency of
solar heat from the surface OF
the oceans and brought down
from the, clouds and from the
verge of the precipice by graVi-
tation. The tidal waters are lift
ed up by the attraction (princi-
pally) OF the moon, and heaped
higher by FRACTIONAL resistance,
but their descent, like that of the
waterfall, is due to graVitatlo1.
and their potential energy is
measured by the vertical height
to which they have been forced.
The engineers problem is, in
substance, simply to impOund the
tidal waters when they have
reached their highest point, and
to govern their escape and de
scent in such a manner that they
will drive turbines and so gen
crate electric currents to be
turned into mechanical energy.
For my part, | hope that the
people Of Maine will vote for
this great enterprise 1t would
cost many millions, but dollars
like tides should hr utilized

MEDITATIONS
OF A WIFE
By Helen Rowland
Mans Beauty-C Complex

THE most astonishing phenom-
enon of this. astonishing age
Is not the new bouffant trousers.
Oh, no. Nor the Charleston
mania. Nor the threatened whis-
ker-peril!
1t is mans sudden youth-a and
beauty complex!
In the old days, a man was "as
young as he felt'-and let it go
at that. While the women were
banting. rolling, taking mud-baths.
a4-d rushing around frantically.
from hairdresser to beauty-sur
geon, man sat at home and grew
comfortably fat, bald and middle
aged.
He considered it unmanly to put
pomade on his hair, and refused
even to deny himself a baked
potato in the interest of his waist
line. 1t never occurred to him
that a bald-spOt and a little EN-
bonpoint could mar his fatal fas-
cinatiOn.
But, now, every other man you
meet is on a diet for his figure.
and has a recipe or a theory
y
seems to think that a man is no
younger than his weakest tooth
or his faintest wrinkle. and that
when his beauty fades his life will
be over.
You can't go into beauty
parl0r without meeting a man
coming out, all pink and white
and marcelled and pomaded and
manicured.
You have to wait at the BARRIERS
for your shingle half an hour,
while some fair young man has
a mud-facial or pompadour
wave.
When you can't find your eye
brow pencil, your tweezers, or
your sunburn lotion, you know
that Father or Brother has been
using them.
Dad COLTS all day to keep his
hips down and dances all eve
nih2 to keep his blood pressure
ur Brother Sticks back his hal"
with scented brilliantine and takes
his mustache seriously.
And every man seems obsessed
wItn the shuddering fear of grow

, little melody hummed that ! have
heard him play brings him WILDLY
to my mind with an intense de-
sire to see him. Understand me,
please, Elsie, I only desire his
friendship, as I would rather die
than be more than a friend to
any man, for my love for my
husband seems to be a thing
apart from this unusual attrac-
ton.
But dare I encourage such
friendship? Is there a middle
ground of safe companionship be-
tween the sexes? Would 1t be
wiser to invite him to our home
occasionally and encourage the
platonic interest he often dis
plays, thereby dispelling the
glamour or should l continue my
present course of never being In
his presence except when unavoid-
able?
Perhaps this seems much ado
about nothing, but to me. accus-
toned to be sane and level headed

What shall you do? Do as you
are doing, my dear. You have
looked at this attraction honestly
and bravely. You recognize 1t
for what it is, a definite sex at
traction. There's nothing sur
prising in this. Nature meant
that cetrain men and women
should attract each other.
However. you're fighting for a
higher ideal than naturalness.
Then keep on fighting. You
know the danger. WATCH YOUR
STEP!
Isn't there a middle ground
of safe companionship between
the sexes?" Sure. sister. there
are acres of ground. You can
camp till doomsday with 900 men
without the slightest danger to
YOUR home. You can walk with
them, eat with them with never
a qualm. But when you play with

with fire. Maybe you won't be
strong that you will. Then. II

matter:
On boys birthday A sent him
a simple little birthday greet
ing card, The boy is a dear friend
of AS, but she had not seen him
for several weeks previous to
sending the card, although they
parted good friends. B claims
that AS sending this card showed
very poor taste, and that unless
there is something more than
friendship, these things are better
left undone. ANN.
INDEED, l see no reason why B
IL should take this cold. imper-
sonal point of view Of friendship
For A to send a simple birthday
card to a friend to offer her con
gratula lions is a natural, friendly
thing to do, and | like her for
doing it. Heaven help us If we
have to live without delightful,
human messages from our friends,
especially those that indicate that
they are glad that we were born!
Better left undone"-the things
that are better left undone are

ings from friend to friend.
