High Tide at Panama

While it is contrary to the usual
idea, there is really no difference in
the main level Of the Atlantic and
the Pacific oceans, yet the difference
in the tides at Panama is about 18
feet. This is due to the shape of the
Bay of Panama. AS the tide sweeps
from the Pacific into this bay it meets
a funnel-shaped shore line, which
gradually contracts as the tide trav-
els landward. The result is that the
tide rises higher and higher until it
reaches maximum of 10 feet above
the average sea level. When it flows
out of the bay it reaches a point ten
feet below the average sea level, thus
giving tidal fluctuation Of 20 feet.
This same rise Of an excessive tide
may also be observed at the Bay Of
Fundy. On the Atlantic at the Zone
the tidal fluctuation is only two feet.

Among Earliest Writings

Runes are the earliest written char
acters used by the Teutonic races of
Europe. They are formed principally
Of straight lines, and are found in in
scriptions on weapons, ornaments,
implements and memorial stones in
various parts Of Norway, Sweden
Denmark, Germany, and to some ex-
tent in England. The origin of the
runes, as well as the date of their
invention, is unknown, but it is be-
lieved they were derived from the
Latin alphabet and that they were
used as early as the Third century.
The Norsemen believed Odin, chief of
the gods, first scratched them on his
spear. Thus runes were identified
with heather worship. The runes
were retained in Scandinavia far long
er than in any other region.-Kansas

DR.. Huddilston Tells Augusta
College Club Members Will
Take Centuries To Evolve
Characteristic Art

That America is but a matter Of
10 years old as the age of nations
is counted and therefore can really
have no such thing as a national art,
was the declaration of DR.. Huddll-
ston of University of Maine in an
address delivered Tuesday afternoon
before the members of the Augusta
College Club at the home of Miss
Lucy Titcomb on Stone street. He
pointed out that there never has
been an artist who has been able
to give the spirit of America graphic
representation.
He referred to the Greek art, GEN.
turtles old, which has exemplifled the
spirit of the nation through the
great Greek temples and declared
that this only came about through
the work of ages.
DR.. Huddilston said that the time
has not yet come for a true Ameri-
can art which shall put the spirit
of America into symbolic represen-
tations. He drew an imaginary pic
ture of the way in which the legis-
lature would receive bill to pro-
vide a certain sum for this purpose
and stated that the people are not
yet ready for theoretical fact such
as this.
Only in 1924, the speaker said,
was there established a national art
gallery and there he had seen In
dian totem poles placed beside won-
derful examples of Italian art. He
declared in closing that there would
come a time, perhaps centuries
away. when American art would be-
come reality and would be just as
characteristic of the nation as the
art Of any nation.
Mrs. Milton o. Dean, president of
the club, introduced the speaker,
saying that besides being professor
of Greek language and literature at
the University of Maine he is the
author of several books on art,
which have been translated into for
eign languages and is therefore well
qualified to speak on the subject
American Art in Retrospect and
| Prospect"
There were about so members OF
the club present and the meeting
proved most enjoyable. Mrs. Dean
