ODD CAUSES OF DEATH

While death is not usually an amusing
subject, the passing of certain citizens of
Alabama has been attributed to somewhat
amusing circumstances, according to a re-
cent report of the health department at
Montgomery.
AS certified by local authorities of vari-
GUS counties, these were among the causes
of death, according to the official record:
Nervousness from gun shot.
Auto accident, complicated with hook
worm.
Fractured skull contributory, mule
Auto wreck started it, pneumonia ended
it.
Stab wound Of chest, inflicted by lady
friend.
Hit over head with slop jar.
Leakage of the head. 4
Frightened to death by deputy sheriff.
Rubbed to death by chiropractor.

UNFIT PARENTS

Parents who do not take some interest
in the education of their children beyond
merely sending them to school fall far short
OF the duty they owe to their offspring and
to society.
The progress of the child in his school
work should be carefully watched and aided
by admonition or approval as circumstances
require. Too many parents place the entire
responsibility upon the teacher and fail to
see that the necessary home work is pune
tually performed.
Monthly grades should be given diligent
attention and steps taken to spur the child
to greater effort in connection with subjects
in which he appears to be backward Consul
tation with the teacher should be had when
poor grades become too common Sometimes
physical defect is responsible; then the at
tention of physician is required
Parents who are too Indifferent to give
some consideration to these things are unfit
to be parents. And there are many such.

WHY MAKE 1T WORSE?

In spite of all that we may possess of
knowledge, philosophy and religion, when
viewed in its stern reality, life is tragic
thing. We may be profoundly thankful for
the fact that "hope springs eternal in the
human breast"
Man, like every living creature, is born
under the sentence of death, which rests
alike upon the king on his throne and the
murderer in his cell. None is exempt.
That we can cheerfully and hopefully
carry on" in the face of this certainty and
in the midst of the trials of our daily exist
ence is convincing evidence of mans courage
and fortitude
These reflections are not intended to
spread gloom or Encouragement but are
merely reminder that, taken at it's best,
there is enough of anguish IN the world,
without anyone seeking to make the burden
OF another harder to bear.
Along the thorny paths of life each can
do much to aid, comfort and encourage his
neighbor. Why, then, should we choose to
do those things which needlessly bring added
misery to others instead of joy?

HOW OCCUPATIONS CHANGE

Seventy years is not relatively long
time in the life of nation such as ours, yet
so rapidly have industrial conditions chang
ed that within the period since 1860 the oc-
equations of the people of the United States
have been radically altered.
Many trades which formerly provided
employment for large number have almost
disappeared, while others, unheard of seven
ty years ago, have grown to vast proportions
as shown by the census reports recently re-
viewed.
Occupations which have shown mark
ed reduction in the number of persons en-
ployed in proportion to population include
those Of shopwood workers, marble and
stone cutters, wheelwrights, coopers and
blacksmiths. The village blacksmith, form
erly an important adjunct of community life
has almost vanished from many sections
A tremendous increase is shown in the
proportion of machinists, while electricians,
automobile mechanics and chauffeurs, air
plane articifers and moving picture operat-
ives, all unknown a few decades ago, have
taken leading places in the industrial
scheme.
In proportion to population plumbers
have increased nearly rs times, architects
seven times, BARRIERS, hairdressers and man
tourists seven times, dentists four times.
Clergymen, lawyers and physicians have
maintained a fairly steady average, as have
carpenters.
Few women were employed outside their
homes in 1860, except as teachers, so that
all engaged in other occupations at present
practically represent net gain.
What of the future? Will new inven-
lions again revolutionize industry and en-
ployment as the automobile, radio, typewrit-
er, moving pictures, electrical appliances and
other epochmaking inventions have done?
The question is interesting, and we must
wait for the answer, but safe guess would
probably be an affirmative one.

LINCOLN'S EARLY LIFE

AS time goes by the name of Abraham
Lincoln shines ever brighter on history S
SCROLL That name is perpetuated in the
great Lincoln Memorial in Washington, the
most massive and beautiful structure yet
erected to any American. But it is in the
hearts of his cOuntrymen that his greatness
is most imperishably recorded.
Born in Kentucky log cabin 121 years
ago on February IL, Lincoln's boyhood was
most unpromsing His father could barely
write his name. Abraham's own schooling
did not amount to full year. He welded
an axe in clearing the forest from the age of
eight; his mother died when he was nine.
In his tenth year he was kicked by horse
and for time was thought to have been
killed.
At the age of % Lincoln was employed
at $12 month at % he served short time
as captain of volunteer company in the
Black Hawk Indian war, and upon returning
ran for the legislature but was defeated
Then he and partner bought second hand
stock of goods on credit and failed. He then
was without money or occupation until he
got work assisting the county surveyor,
which, as he said, procured bread and kept
soul and body together"
About this time he studied English
grammar unaided, and in 1884, when he was
25, he again ran for the legislature and was
elected. Then he studied law entirely with
out assistance and was licensed to practice
two years later.
Lincoln recognized his need of educa-
ton and diligently devoted his spare time to
acquiring it. He studied and mastered six
books of Euclid after he had been elected to
Congress. He lost no opportunity for self
improvement.
Thus, in spite of early handicaps, he
prepared himself for his great destiny.

Takes Much Water to
Supply Worlds Cities

Have you any idea how much
water the average city dweller
uses daily? Take London, with its
gigantic population. Here the au..
thorities have to supply an area of
55S square miles. and give the
100000 people the water they need.
Would you have imagined that each
of these demands no less than SO
gallons every day? Yes, that is
only the average supply per head
per day. In the dry, hot weather
the amount required for each per-
son becomes 40 gallons, or more
than barrel Of water per day for
each man, woman and child. Lon
don Is not the thirstiest town. Scot
land consumes more water than
England. In Glasgow and Edin-
burgh, for instance, the average con-
sumption per head is not SO, but
81 gallons; and to Helensburgh, in
charlottesville, belongs the dis
tinction of being the most thirsty
town In the whole of the British
isles. Here they take ST. gallons
per head. One reason given for
Scotland's large consumption is
that the water supply is much bet.

eHors is the tendency OF many, If not most,
typesettlng machines to get the wrong let
ter IN the right place or vice versa, such as
getting the right letter in the wrong place.
Sometimes, due to no fault of their own,
these machines will get whole lines pied up,

OF the operator to unskramblex the line, i.e.,
rest it and put it in it's proper setting. Which

Old Treasure Chamber
in Westminster Abbev

Few who explore Westminster alb
hey are aware that there are many
of its most ancient and interesting
parts of which they have never had
a glimpse. For instance, in the
eastern clOisters there is a door so
guarded against unauthorized intru-
sion that it can only be opened by
seven keys. which are in the jeal-
Gus custody of as many government
officials. Five Of the keyholes Of
this wonderful door, which, by the
way, is covered with human skins,
are concealed from view by stout
iron bar which traverses it. This
door gives access to vaulted cham

THE MODERN OMAN ON HORSEBACK,

At dangerous street corner in New
York City where two street-car lines cross
at an angle in front of Subway station and
heavy crosstown traffic complexities an al
ready difficult situation, stands large sign
in the shape of tombstone 1t reads "Sac-
red to the Memory of 1876 persons killed
by automobiles in the city this year." The
number is changed every day. It never
grows smaller; The dead do not come back to
life.
Ohio for some years marked the scene
of every fatal accident on State highway
with white cross. 1t is reported that the
state has abandoned this practice; the eros
ses became too thick in some spots. This is
a step in the wrong direction. Warnings like
that may be disregarded and usually are by
most motorists, but enough drivers will be
shocked into at least temporary caution to
be more careful at that particular spot.
1t is not merely for the protection Of
drivers and their passengers that such warn
ing are needed. The man on foot still has
first rights on the highway, and his life is
as valuable as that of the man who rides.
Out of all the immense toll of motor deaths
in 1929, nearly third were of pedestrians
struck by automobiles.
In the old feudal days in Europe the
man on horseback felt that he was superior
being, and the poor people who had no hors-
es had to agree with him or be ridden down.
One of the things our fathers came to Am
lerica for was to change all that. It would
