The superintendent praised the
idea behind the valley Schoolmas-

to become better acquainted with
each other and with the conmuni-
ties IN which they serve.
Previous to Kcrsey : address re
marks were made by /. +. Cooley,
first county Superintendent of
schools here, and by II. c. Coe,
present superintendent. At the con.
cluSion OF the address impromptu
remarks were made by many OF
the trustees, urging the need of
better acquaintanceship and more
cooperation between teacher and
trustee.
The dinner served previous to the
program included Imperial Valley
asparagus presented for the occasion
bv Mr.. Cooley. who stated he had
changed from "tcaching the young
idea to shoot. to teaching the
asparagus 70 root.
During dinner the schoolmasters
and their guests were entertained
with selections by the Wilson school
orchestra under the direction Of
Miss Martha Colvin, supervisor Of
music in the elementary schools.

Sydney p. Noe Of the American Nun1is-
matte Society is an authority on coin
boards, and his writings on the sub
ject are noteworthy.
It is strange, perhaps, at first
thought, that the ancient habit OF
boarding good coins is likely to recur
nowadays, especially during war times
or before or during bank failures OF
runs on banks. OF course. the neces-
gold miners FIRST laws. Is Noe not cor
rect when he says that the man on
the street today will pick out Of q
handful of change the poorer looking
pieces to spend and hold on to the
brighter and new coins?
$4,000 Gold Pieces Found.
Many boards Of ancient and medieval
coins were found by soldiers during
the World War while they were digging
trenches. Not many years ago at Bres-
cello there was dug up hoard con.
tanning 10000 pieces of gold all dat
ing between as and SO B. c. Gold coins
are the most desired by numismatists,
because gold shows no effect from
burial in the earth, whereas silver, espe-
cially II buried in volcanic soil, turns
black or tends to mass or shows a crys-
talline change that makes it brittle.
Bronze tends to oxidize or to become
covered with an accretion Of verdigriS.
NumiSmatists have proved by the
finds Of Oriental coins In Austria, Rus
STA and Sweden the overland route Of
the Arabs to the markets in Scandi-
navia. The French numismatist Blan-
Chef was able to demonstrate the
growth Of the commercial importance
Of the Greek colony Massilia MAR
seilles) from the finds of boards of lit
different types Of Massiliot coins scat
tered throughout Gaul.
In 1895 in Bessarabia some peasants
found a bronze vase with. 1000 gold
coins Of the time of Alexander the
Great. There were Asst varieties in
that part of the find which went to
the coin collection of the Hermitage
Museum, and out of that number TIA
mad not previously been known.
Buried villa Yields Find.
Perhaps one Of the most interesting
discoveries was that known as the
BoSco Reale find. BoSco Reale is one
Of the towns on the side Of Mount YES
uvious which was buried in 70 AID. by
the same eruption that covered Pompeili
and Herculaneum. One OF the exca-
waited villas Of this town had some
beautiful wall paintings in an excellent
state Of preservation which were ac-
quired for the Metropolitan Museum
Of New York and are now one Of the
priced possessions of this country.
The treasure hoard was partly silver

relief. These objects were purchased

DRINK WATER WHEN

Take Glass of Salts II Your
Back Aches or Bladder
Troubles You.

when you wake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it may mean you have been eating
foods which create acids, says a
well known authority. An excess Of
such acids overworks the kidneys
in their effort to filter 1t from the
blood and they become sort OF para
lived and loggy. When your kid
neys get sluggish and clog you must
relieve them, like you relieve your
bowels, removing all the body's
urinouS waste, else you have back
ache. sick headache, dizzy spells;
your stomach sours, tongue is coated
and when the weather is bad you
have rheumatic twinges. The urine
is cloudy, full of sediment, channels
often get sore, water scalds and you
are obliged to seek relief two or
three times during the night.
Either consult good, reliable
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of
Jad Salts: take q tablespoonful in
a glass of water before breakfast for
a few days and your kidneys may
then act fine. This famous salts is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon Juice, combined with htha,
and has been used for years to help
clean and stimulate sluggish kid

It may be doubted whether every one,
II asked to tell what Gresham's law is,
could do it. Sir Thomas Gresham was
the commercial adviser to Queen Eliza
beth of England, and he formulated
this law: Tn every country where two
kinds of legal money are In circulation,
the bad money always drives out the
Sood." It Is quite true, perhaps, that
he was but formulating q statement
made 1000 years before his time by
the Greek writer of comedy, Aristo-
planes. The Greek writer said In his
comedy, 1.-THE Frogs:
THE public has often seemed to us
to treat the wiseSt and the best OF our
citizens just as 1t does old and new
coins. For we do not use (Spend) the
latter (new. uncirculated coins) at all
except in our own houses or abroad,
though they are Of purer metal, finer
to look at, the only ones that are well
coined and round; on the contrary, we
prefer to use (spend) vile copper pieces,
struck and stamped in the most in
famous fashion"
Ancients Hoarded Best Coins.
In ancient days, when there were no
or in consequence of some anticipated
war or trouble, the bad coin money
drove the new coins into boards which
were hidden away, usually in terra
Gotta pots somewhere in the ground.
It is the recovery Of these boards,
hidden away centuries ago, that has
given to one of the new classical
sciences, numismatics, the most excit-
ing part Of its work.
It was the tendency first to hoard,
and then to conceal, the newest and
best coins that made the discovery of
boards so valuable, because the coins
that remained In circulation became

tific value is thereby diminished or lost

People who lived in Cowtown were as
law-abiding as any citizens. They
knew how physically to protect their
own interests, and never hesitated to
do SO. In this connection, 1t was al
ways an interesting day-and that day
was frequent one-when Poundmaster
Sam EinStein swooped down on the ami
mails running at large here. They then
forgot their loyalty to Government and
just blew the lid right Off.
Up until 1871, when the territorial
form of government went into effect,
the Levy Court looked after the welfare
of the County of Washington, which in
cluded Cowtown, end until that time
animals were permitted to run at large
under certain restrictions, of course.
After Gov Cooke came into office, how
ever, things took on different turn,
and animals were not permitted to run
at large anywhere within the District.
This idea of justice did not strike the
residents Just over the border line as
being right or fair, and every Time
Einstein put in an appearance he had
to fight every inch of the way through
the place. He rarely came alone, but
usually stopped by the old station
house on Georgia avenue, little north
of the base ball park, on the opposite
side of the street, where he secured
one or two mounted policemen for pro-
lection. In this way he usually carried
off wagonload of animals which their
owners or some of their neighbors were
unable to prevent being captured.
1t was not unusual for the pound
master to have his head cut by a fly
ing brick or bottle. nor was 1t out OF
the ordinary If few arrests we're made
for resisting the majesty of the law.
At this period Washington itself was
not overly blessed with good streets and
the county was considerably worse of.
Before Sherman avenue was brought to
its present grade 1t was rather steep

alongside the hospital property This
avenue then began at Barry place and

occasion I recall seeing wagon, with

bottom of this hill. It was intended for
