The Great Bard

While Homer lived he didn't cut
much grass, men looked upon his
doings as a crime: "I1is song" they
said, sis merely sounding brass, it is
shame, the way he wastes his time.
He might be chopping stovewood for
the fire, or planting seeds that he anon
may reap, instead of which he mon
keys with a Tyre, disturbing men who
fain would be asleep. The most OF us
attempt to play the game. we work
long hours and salt our money down,
but Homer seems to have no higher
aim than just to spread his discords
through the town. His credits punk.
the merchant princes glare and turn
him down with language brisk and
sharp. when he would buy cushion
for his chair. n can of kraut. new
string for his harp. He makes US
weary and we would be glad if we no
more should hear his bughouse strain,
if he would move to some sequestered
grad that may have use for bardS who
are insane" When Homer died dis
covery was made that he was great.
his song had priceless worth: then
every village, through its Board of
Trade put in a claim that it had seen
his birth In many towns where he
was scorned so long, the sign appeared,
Here Homer's strains were sprung:
here from the barrel of immortal song,
with hands inspired he drew away the
bung" Twas long ago, yet things are
much the same: the idle dreamer has
few friends on earth: yet when at last
he's garlanded in fame, nine cities
claim the honor of his birth.

ne inserted in his barograph sheet
on which a curve had already been
plotted in invisible ink. to indicate a
ecord-breaking flight Of $4,000 meters
or 1851 feet 1t was all, ged that
after taking off for the purported at
tempt, he shot steam against the pa

subsequently submitted the sheet as
proof of his record breaking claim.
An engineer of the Bleriot Company
however. the papers asserted, had be-
come suspicious of Callizo's previous
record and secretly inserted in the
wing of his plane n second barograph.
The reading of this is alleged to have
shown that the flyer ascended only
4.500 meters instead of the $4,000 he
claimed.

Poor Man! BARRIERS Plan
Masculine Hair STYLES

Indianapolis.-A haircut was just
a haircut until woman invaded the
barber shop and demanded modes In
sciSsors-wielding.
Now man is to have his choice Of
haircut styles just as definite as those
from which woman chooses. Hence
forth, under plans Of the iOurneymen
BARRIERS union, his periodic trip to the
barber is to be a seance with Dame
Fashion.
The union will educate male patrons
to have their hair cut to a style
adaptable to head and facial contour.
Later, says Jacob Fisher, president, a
board of fashion arbiters may be es-
tablished and new styles created.
In the Victorian days the BARRIERS
artistic urge found outlet in the trim
ming Of boards to conform with the
patrons personality, through the
grooming Of COATES and sideburns.
The barren jOwl ended that. But
again, after many years, mems hair
cutting is to be an art as well as a
trade.

INVISIBLE RAY REVEALS
ENEMY IN The DARKNESS
Secret Discovered by British inventor
Is Carefully Guarded BY
Government.

LondOn.-The British government Is
jealousy guarding its new war secret
a mysterious invisible %searchlight ray
which makes it impossible for an enc
my to conduct military operations at
night unObserved.
II is n Of the most formidable
war weapons yet discovered, and 1t
was discovered accidentally.
John L. Baird, inventor Of the tele-
visor and the discOverer Of the mys-
teriOus ray, looks more like a staid
college professor than a scientist who
is perfecting a powerful weapon for a
powerful government. He accidental
ly stumbled on the new ray while ne
was trying to perfect the television ap-
paratus with which he now brOadcasts
pictures by radio as far as 80 miles.
It belongs In the infra-red section Of
the spectrum outside the range Of the
human eye. His process is to isolate
and use the ray which the human eye
cannot see, but which is susceptible OF
being recorded on his secret appara-
tus.
"By proper adaptation Of these prin-
ciples," he disclosed, lit will be posi-
BILE to see an enemy in the dark when
he believes himself to be unobserved
$50 far we are seeing over com
paratively short distances, but it has
now become simply a question OF Ger
tain technical improvements and the
application Of greater power in order
to be able to see a person or a scene
which is thousands Of miles distant
from the point where we are looking
into the receiving screen"
His associate, Capt. o. G. Hutchin
son, goes even further. Attacking
airplanes approaching under the cove
Of darkness will be disclosed to tn

followed by searchlights emitting in

New YOrk.-One Of the oldest and

every morning about 10 80.
The men who assemble in Nassau
street are those who are looking for

the cheaper downtown lunchrOOms.
Naturally, they are neither prosperous
looking nor well dressed, but they are
only unemployed, not "unemplOy-

The block on Nassau street is their
well-knOwn and recognized rendezvous,
and has been for many years. The

Sometimes there are a dozen seekers
for work there, sometimes more; It
depends on the state of the labor
market.
Men Assemble Singly.
First one man makes his appearance
and stands waiting at this curb, but Il
is not long before he is Joined by an
other. They seldom come In pairs,
Sometimes they talk, or read news
papers, but generally they just stand
and wait. They hold their places on
both sides Of the street, most often In
a single line, but when there are many
seekers for employment the line
doubles. The prospective employer
appears and walks up and down the
row to scrutinize the men. He selects
one or more as most likely to meet
his wants. The rest look hard at em,

The WAR,
SEEKS PENSION
Memory, Impaired by
Wound in Civil War, Re-
stored to Veteran.

Minneapolis, NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. is
being made of the case of LeOpOld
Newsalt, OwatOnna, who forgot about
his services in the Civil wal until
lust a year ago, by the claim depart
ment of the federal pensions bureau.
This was the word from the Office
Of E. A. Walsh, acting adjutant gen
eral for Minnesota, where a claim for
NewsaIt's back pension amounting to
thousands Of dollars has been in prep
aratiOn.
Newsalt furnishes a type Of case
which has given the ictionists delight
and the pension bureau comparative
" little bother since the North and
South fought.
Wounded after engaging in many Of
the most important battles of the war,
Newsalt's story is that he was dis
charged from a Philadelphia hospital
BY that time he had forgotten the
Union army, the Civil war, and, in fact,
the existence Of Dayton, Ohio, his boy
| hood town, which he had left to enter
the war as q member of E company
of the Fourteenth United States In
fantry.
Relatives Thought Him Dead.
He engaged in the building trade.
Given up as lost and dead his rela-
tives at Dayton, Ohio, mOurned him.
His favOrite brother, Jacob, following
the westward trend Of the time, moved
to OwatOnna, Mimi, where he died
several years ago.
Leopold, however, lived On. A year
ago last month he sat In a railroad
station when some n mentioned
dayton, Ohio" Just before, a bit OF
shell had been removed from his head
Perhaps this had a cOnnectiOn-but
anyway, the name Of his home town
caused Leopold to remember many
things.
The Civil war came back to hin
with freshness. Although eighty-fOu
years old now and with many year
separating him from his days as tn
midget infantryman, Newsalt is re
puted to remember details Of the wa
which might have better r%epresente,
versions given a half century ago whel
the smoke Of battle hadn't blown S
far away.
Traces Movements Of Brother.
Tracing the movements Of his brOtt
er, Leopold found him dead, but b
was welcomed by his widow wit
whom he is now making his home q
Owatonna. She is we'll satisfied tina
he has established his identity, as er
other members Of the family, who ar
assisting him in setting forth hi
, claims for back pension.
Investigators from the pension bT
reau will consider his story and con
6 pare it with old war records as well q
take testimony Of those who have a.
a cepted him as a member Of the famil!
O At the same time, physicians hav
; become interested in the case, particI
# larly as it represents a striking cas-
Of lost memory with its recovery con
q ing after a much longer period {
years than most instances have r
vealed.
Meanwhile, Leopold Newsalt is IL
ing at OwatOnna, glOrying in the mer
e DRY Of his war exploits as his COL
\ rades did many years ago.

Speed Best Weapon to
Foil Cattle Rustlers

Los Angeles, Calif.-Cattle rustling,
one Of the oldest crimes In California,
has had a recent revival, the sherih's
Office declared, and special methods
have been devised in cooperation with
the cattle protection bureau, to stop
the thefts and catch the thieves.
Because there have, been very few
cattle thefts, in the last 20 years until
recently, the sheriRs office says, most
cattle Owners do not know what to do
when they learn Of their losses. They
must act quickly If their action is to
do any good, notifying the sheriff with
a description Of the stolen cattle and
their brands.
''Time is an important element In
the capture Of a cattle thief" says
a bulletin put out by the sheriff.
"Such a thief transports stock to a
slaughter house and has the cattle
killed within a few hours OF the time
he makes the steal. This Obliterates
the opportunity Of the cattle owner
identifying his stock OF making a con-
yiction in the courts very certain"
