Surveyors Work

geOdetic survey is one which
covers large areas and takes into ac-
count the fact that the earth has a
curved surface 1t is usually called a
control survey, because ii furnishes
geographic positions and other data
for more detailed local surveys. In
ordinary surveying, the earth's curv
ature is ignored, and points OF equal
elevation above sea level are treated
as being plane. This is satisfactory
for a local survey, but when several
Independent local surveys are brought
together their lines are quite apt not
to fit unless each survey has been
made under geodetic control sur
vey.

UNKNOWN TO FARMER

He has been round! So far as is
known, he is the only one of his kind
in the United States. He is a farmer
tilling the soil in remote section
of Montana, 80 miles west of Sidney.
His claim to fame is simply that he
had never heard of Colonel Charles
Lindbergh. During a conversation
with Sidney aviator, who had made
forced airplane landing to extricate
a calf entangled in barb wire, the

So Says Singer, Advising
That Charity Begins
at Home

New York City.--Let Ameri-
can churches begin some of their
charity at home, and when next
they start fund for foreign
missions, first pass the collection
plate and secure an endowment
for their own church choirs.
This is the advice of Flo Ten
nyson, gifted American singer.
Churches throughout m a !
American communities could
bring happiness and useful lives
to thousands of young girls who
have vocal talent if they would
assign greater part Of the
church budget to their church
choirs," declares Miss Tennyson.
She considers the small-town
church choir one of the greatest
training schools for singers, and
backs up her belief by declaring
that if the humble beginnings of
many Of our most noted singers
were traced they would be found
in a small-town church choir.
