Horses in Wartime

We wont to think of the day Of the horse as
being past. Some of muse mournfuy on tho
fact that the snortng automobile and tractor have
succeeded the prancng charger which used to be
such common thing in earlier days.
But for the horse has won a victory. In
Great Britain, he has been paid tribute by military
officers. There, they say, the horse is far superior
to tractors in maneuvers
Every tractor used in drawing gun or supply
wagon must be followed by gasoline truck. Thus
the pressure the roads is just doubled and the
movement of forces is slowed down. The horse re.
quires "fue" too, but not much. He needs little
if any auxiliary transport for his feed.
Despite increasing mechanization, the horse
still has his place. He may not be as plentiful as
the auto or the tractor but there some places
where he serves better than any tractor car can

Old Age The Only Disease

Chicagos health commissioner recently declared
that someone should be hanged for negligence every
time death from typhoid fever occurs and thereby
he most emphatcally brought out the realization
that this one dreaded disease is now under almost
complete control.
For all this amazing progress mans knowledge
Of disease and preventive medicine is still in print
tive state. A British scientist told the American
Chemical Society the other day that one three.m
lionth part Of of the proper vitamin woult
cure an advanced case of ricketts, in rat indicating
that the curative powers of these new and mystec
ious life forces, still not definitely understood have
only begun to be appreciated.
The day In which someone should be hanged when
ever death occurs from any cause except old ag'
seems at times to be not far distant.

New Things Needed

Nothing under the sun?
The ladder manufacturer association Of Amer
lea is working day and night in search of skid
less ladder one guaranteed to make anyone who
stands on the top round safe as the man below.
In fact there will be no man below. not if he is
there only for the purpose of holding the ladder
for such man won't be needed, they say.
The chairman of the skidless ladder committee
declares that it's ridiculous TO think that through
all the years ladders have been used none has ever
been perfected to stage where it is safer than
when the first ladder was erected.
If you will think half second you can cnumerats
fifty things which would mean something new un-
der the sum-" things badly needed and so obviously
simple that you wonder why they weren't invented
long ago.

Faith, sitting at the foot of the
exquisitely appointed dinner table, on
Mr.. Pruitt's left, with George around
the corner of the square table at her
right, with Cherry as his partner.
found herself the pivot upon which
the dinner conversation seemed de-
termined to revolve. 1t was new
sensation, one which caused her eyes
to sparkle and her tongue to timber
amazingly.
She surprised herself by saying
clever things, making demure little
epigrams which kept the others
laughing gayly and admiringly-all
except Cherry. For Cherry was not
happy. The spotlight had, for some
reason which she could not fathom,
been switched from her to her
hitherto socially negligible sister,.
George, seated at her right, leaned
almost constantly toward Faith, serv-
ing her compliments even more as
siduously than the weil-trained but
Ter piled her with delicate foods.
Across the table, Bob tried gallantly
! to make conversation in . flattering
, undertone with Mrs. Pruitt, but
Cherry noticed that. his blue eyes
kept straying to Faith, seeking her
out over the top Of the flower CEN
+, terpiece.
"I'm still hoping you'll let me paint
your portrait, Faith" George said
suddenly, in lull in the converse
ton. did she ever tell you, Hatha-
way, that bounded her for weeks
to serve as a model for me? She's
absolutely the only girl in this town
that could tempt me to dip brush
into paint. Won't you help me to
persuade her, old MANI"
Faith gasped mentally. but her
face was still smiling and serene as
she waited for Bob's answer. II
came slowly, as a flush changed the
tan of Bob's cheeks to bronze.

That's right. You are playing

works, aren't you?" George cut in
eagerly. "Great, I'll paint you as
a Madonna. That's what I've always
wanted to do with you. When can

When an object is brought sud

man blinks. Frequently he blinks
without any apparent stimulation.
Two British Psychologists, Drs.
Ponder and Kennedy, decided to find

Apparently blinking is not depend
emit on the perception of light, they
found, although sudden illumina-
tion may produce few rapid blinks;
instead, every individual has q nor
NAL blinking rate which is modified
by external stimuli: The rate Of
blinking is more . rapid when the
eyes are fixed on q near point than
when they are looking at distance.
Each blinking movement is as4o-
ciated with the movement Of the eye
itself. II a person tries to hold the
eyes, without blinking, he will find
/ in from ten to twenty seconds an
almost uncomfortable desire ia
blink. At this time, il he will alter
the position Of his eyes and look else
where, he may avoid the blinking
| movement.
Irritation of the eye, as in smok.
