Eels Not Sectional

East is East and West is West, but
cells are all the same, according to
Professor Schmidt of Copenhagen.
who, in lecturing before the Academy
of Science, said the European eel and
the American eel go to the same spot
to reproduce.
This spot. says Professor Schmidt.
is northwest Of the Antilles, between
the forty-eighth and sixtieth degrees
longitude. in the middle Of the Atlantic
ocean.
Years of close study Of the eel has
convinced the professor that ii takes
the average eel three years to make
the journey from the Matching grounds
to the American or European shores,
and that European eel may continue
on its voyage, crossing to America or
vice versa.

The Biggest Word.

One of the biggest words in the
English language is think" The
railroad yard-man who thinks is the
man who is advanced; the shop man
who thinks is the man who becomes
foreman; the foreman who thinks is
the man who becomes superintendent
or manager. Thinking is the motive
force behind all creation, all inven-
ton, all there is to are and literature.
The advantage of thinking does not
lie in original ideas nor in giving
unique expression to words, but in ex-
ercising the brain cells that run err
rands back and forth through the
paths of the brain.
The man who always thinks is thrice
armed, and it has solved the knottiest
problems of all history.
If you form the habit of thinking
things out for yourself, you will cult
vate a clearness of mind coupled
with an independence of thought, a
clear and exact purpose behind this
thought, and make yourself felt, as an
influence wherever you go. A man
who thinks always takes his stand
apart from the crowd.
The progressive, refreshing man or
woman, has original ideas and cour-
age to express them. They are not
trailers nor do they think as some
one else directs them. They develop
their own individuality. The man who
will honestly think is bound to be-
come leader of men-because so
many of US depend upon his brain
power.

A Buick car, which departed I'M
heralded from New York City last
December to be driven from one
Buick dealer to another in a trip
around the world, is nearing the end
of it's long journey.
The car, a Standard Six Touring
model, is strictly ION it's own" be-
ing unaccompanied by mechanics or
special drivers. When it returns to
New York City the machine will
have been handled by approximately
$50 different drivers.
The last difficult leg of the trip
has been completed, a long run over
the questionable roads across the
continent of Australia. The car is
now enroute to New Zealand and
Honolulu, from whence it will be
shipped to San Francisco and driven
across the United States through De-
troit and Flint to New York.
The trip around the world was
conceived to demonstrate that
Buick will travel to the remote cor
ners of the earth and that on such
u journey it is always safeguarded
by service facilities.
The globe-encircling car has made
its trip without faltering. Driven
from dealer to dealer by dealers
representatives only, it has demon
strated Bucks ability to withstand
the man handling" from hundreds
OF drivers Of various nationalities
and degrees OF 4kill.

ADOBE HOME or KIT
CARSON RESTORED
Will Be PRESCRIBED as Me-
mortal to Pioneer.

In dusty, narrow street, just on
the plaza at Taos, N. NJ, Is the orig
inal home Of Kit Carson, a long, low
abode which has recently been re-
stored from crumbling half ruin to
the rude comfort Of its original state.
The simple house in this ancient
Spanish village seems fitting memo
rial to the man who lived In It. Car
son was also q man of affairs, q
pioneer leader, as fearless in the
council chamber as he was on the
trail. His shrewd diplomacy won
over many an obstacle, and his deeds
OF daring were as spectacular as
those OF a motion picture hero Of to-
day. He was the friend of governors,
army officers, Indians and settlers.
There are pioneers in New Mexico to-
day whose eyes light at the mention
Of his name, and his generosity is still
a tradition among Indians and Mexi-
cans, says a correspondent of the
Christian Science Monitor.
As scout, working lone-handed in
the most trying conditions, Carson de-
velOped remarkable resOurcefulness,
combining the Indians outdoor craft
with the white mans natural inherit
ance. Men of every sort came to the
Taos home seeking CarsOn's advice
and services. He carried government
messages Of the greatest Importance,
guided exploring parties, and helped
poor Mexicans recover stolen property
or perhaps wife or children who had
been carried off by the Indians His
sense OF Justice was keen and he un-
selfishly champiOned the cause Of the
oppressed. Like most lovers Of the
open he liked also a home and fire.
side. His wife was proud and beau
tiful Spanish woman who appreciated
his heroic qualities.
For years the adobe house was left
untenanted. Vagrant Indians and
Mexicans who remembered Carson as
their friend claimed its hospitality.
They built mesquite fires in the great
fireplace, slept on the floors of the
deserted rooms and went their way
again. Sand storms picked holes in
the walls and roof. Wandering cattle
and burros crowded through the brok-
en- doors. Finally the women Of Taos
decided that the old house must be re-
paired. They gave musical programs
and various other entertainments, and
little by little they raised the neces-
sary money. The foundation was re-
built, new roof put on and the adobe
walls replastered by native workmen
in the traditional fashion. Doors and
windows were replaced with exact du-
plicates. and the hOspitable fireplace
again invites the friendly council.

"The road was terrible In places,
being nothing more than q cart
track strewn with large boulders.
In the run over the Lebanon Noun
tains the car climbed to q height Of
more than a mile. After spending
the night at Damascus. the 540-mile
run to Bagdad was made at an av-
erage speed Of 80 miles an hour"
The Mesopotamian distributors
took the Buick at Bagdad and drove
it to Basra on the Persian gulf.
from whence it was sent to Bonn
bay, India. From there 1t was drfv-
en- over Indifferent railroads across
India to Agra, and finally Calcutta.
1t then went to Ceylon, where the
Buick distributors drove it for three
days before sending 1t to Perth, on
the southwest coast of Australia,
where it arrived April 1. The des-
ert waste of southern Australia be-
tween. Perth and Adelaide was re-
garded as the most difficult part of
the trip. The distance is something
more than halfway across the Unit
ed States. This long stretch of bad
going was negotiated successfully,
as was the shorter journey from
Adelaide to Melbourne, near the
southeast end of the continent. The
car since was driven to Albury and
then to Sydney, from which point it
was shipped to New Zealand.
After completion of the globe
journey it is planned to preserve the
car as an object Of historical in
terest.

Hunt for Liue Dinosaur

Gayne Dexter, an Australian explOr.
err, is organizing a new expedition in
search of the live dinosaur which was
reported to have been seen in Lake
Esguel, in the Andes.
Star shells will be carried by the
expedition to illuminate the lake at
night, when the monster is said to
show. itself. A motor launch and big
traps will also be part Of the expedi
TONS stores.
Mr.. Dexter proposes to carry on
the work Of the late Clement Onelli.
curator Of the BuenOs Aires zoo, who
conducted an unsuccessful search for
the creature two years ago.
The Australian explorer declares
that the existence Of unaccountable
tracks in the neighborhOod to the
lake and the testimony of more than
twelve witnesses indicate that some
astonishing monster dwells there.

Why l Am, a Christian.
(By DIR. J. w. HolIand)

1t is difficult to set down the rea-
sons for ones beliefs. No one can
perfectly describe the inner proofs
that he may feel so surely.
First of all, | suppose l am a
Christian because my parents were.
Do not turn up a nose at that rea-
son. 1t is good one. Family pray
ers were little dry, and 1 had to
go to Church little more than l
wanted to, but the consistent lives of
my father and mother proved to me
that Christianity made good people.
A hundred little doubts have come
to my mind since l have grown up,
but the joyful and sacrificing lives
of my parents were too real to be de-
MED.
Parents, you and / are rightly
anxious to give our children a good
Setting out" in life. 1 feel sure
that the best gift we can give them
is the example of consistent lives,
and the memory of our devotion to
remember when we are gone. If our
children believe in us, they will be-
lieve in our God.
A man once said this to me, "You
are a Christian because your par
ents were. am not Christian be-
cause my parents professed to be and
were not"
/ am Christian because of the
inspiring ideals that Christianity
brings to young people. Burn down
all the Churches, tear up all the
New Testaments, and in three gen.
erations virtue will be rare jewel.
l think we fail to see this; that
the ideals of personal purity, clean
and high thinking about life, devo-
ton to the heroic, all come, in the
fullest measure, from Christianity.
Christianity appeals to me be-
cause it condemns meanness and low
ness in thought and action. Not
that Christians are perfect. / have
met few that said they were, but

The Creature Known AS
Boy.

DIR. Alfred E. Stearns, head master
of Philips Andover Academy, at An
dover, Mass, showed good sense and
no little knowledge of humanity when
he declared at dinner of the Epis-
copalian Club of Massachusetts that,
regardless of the agencies that are
working against him the average boy
of today will grow up to be virile
and polished man. There is so much
talk in some quarters about the de-
pravity of youth that it would some
times almost appear as if an effort
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1925-05-20

was being made to depreciate his
good qualities to the advantage of the
former generation. DR.. Stearns sees
things differently, however, from
many others, and actually had the
temerity to say word in defense
of 'the creature known as boy" who
had previously been made the subject
of number of uncomplimentary re-
marks.
1t is true that Dr. Stearns urged
that the influence of what he called
the jazz world" is not going to improve
the texture that boys are made of,
but his remedy was to purify the at
mosphere with which the youth is
surrounded, and in achieving this OBJ
ject he laid great responsibility upon

GAME LAW ENFORCEMENT

The Wyoming game and fish law was enacted with the
intent that ii should be obeyed and that any disobedience to
Its mandates should be followed by punishment. There is only
one way to enforce obedience to this law by those upon whom
obedience rs not imposed by craftsmanship, and that is punish
ment for disobedience. One unable to comprehend the spirit of
law is Incapable of respect for law until respect has been in
stlled by the distress of penaization for violation of law.
That changes the viewpoint.
1t is news gratifying to Wyoming sportsmen that efforts
TO enforce the game and fish law not only are being made by
the constituted authorities in several counties but are achiev-
ing results. The Albany countyites who were mulct-one of
$3.50 for illegally killing deer, one of $35 for illegally catch
ing fish, another of 500 for the same offense, n fourth Of
$50 for illegally possessing venison-doubtlcss now harbor n
profoundly greater respect for the law than they felt before
arrest and prosecution, and there i%ndubitably is held n new
viewpoint of the law by Lincoln countyites who were Invested
of 1926 for illegally killing sage chickens. Prosecutions such
as these not only infect the persons prosecuted hut provide
an influence deterrent upon many others who are not averse

REPUBLICAN GUBERNAToRIAL TIMBER

Selection by the Republicans of Wyoming of a candidate
for the governorship in 1926 involves no quest for a member
of the party qualified for this, the most important office of
the State, but does present difficulties of selection because of
the large number of Republicans who are notably qualified.
Any discussion Of Republican 'gubernatorial TIMBER
naturally early takes cognizance of Hon. William W.. Daley,
of Rawlins. In the prime of life, successful in business, eX-
perienced in public affairs, strong of character, temperament
ally extraordinarily fit, Mr.. Daley is CONSPICUOUS amid the
field. For more than a dozen years he has served in the
State Senate and through that service has obtained an init
mate and profound knowledge of State affairs. a leader in
the Senate from the beginning Of his service, he was elected
president ad interim i'll 1921 and president in 1923. During
the session of 1925 he was a member of the majority steering
committee and in that capacity exercised a very notable in
fluence in the formation of the important legislation then en-
acted and an equally potent influence against enactment of
unwise proposed legislation. He has been prominent for
years in movements for state development and for the pro
lection of state interests. Himself engaged in that indus
try, he has an intimate understanding Of the needs, develop
mental and protective, of what is regarded as Wyoming's nat
ural basic industry, the live stock business. The frequent
mention of his name in discussions concerning the governor
ship is reflective of sound a~ppraisement.

Throughout the United States there seems to be a certain
number OF paid reformers who feel that it is their duty tc
forever set forth rules and regulations that all should observe
These people are constantly organizing reform associa-
tons, welfare clubs, etc, in order that they will have some
recognized organization through which donations can be so
licted and money realized whereby these professional re-
formers" can be assured of a livelihood.
Prior to prohibition most of these associations were sup
posedly organized for the purpose of securing prohibition
and making the people of these United States moral by law.
Evidently many of these associations feel that prohibition is
now an accomplished fact and that with the myriad of pro-
hibition enforcement officers on the job they can now enter
other fields.
The Board of Temperance of the Methodist Episcopal
church has now changed its name to Board of Temperance,
Prohibition and Public Morals and in a recent bulletin sent
broadcast throughout the United States takes colleges to task
cr1tlclses the government for permitting prizefghting in the
army.
This bulletin has the following to say regarding boxing

No one can certainly have any serious objection to en-

place in which to live, However, isn't it possible that some
OF these reform associations are tending to make conditions
worse by continually endeavoring to ''legislate' morality into
the American peoplel
Undoubtedly a large majority of the American people are
becoming extremely tired of present conditions and are about
ready to call for a "show down with all these various at
