Never Positive Proof
That Atlantis Existed

According to ancient tradition, At
lantis was the name of a large is
land or continent which existed at
very early period in the Atlantic
ocean, and eventually was sunk be-
meath the waves.
An account of it is given by Plato.
His writings state that in the At
lantic ocean, over against the pillars
of Hercules, there was once an is
land which was larger than Asia and
Africa together Tor the then existent
notion of the extent of these CONT
nents), and near it lay other islands
through which there was a passage
TO large continent beyond.
Nine thousand years before Plato's
time, said the tradition, the island of
Atlantis was thickly settled and very
powerful. 1t held sway over Africa
as far as Egypt and over a large
part Of Europe, but the advance of
its conquering power was checked
by the valor of the Greeks. At last,
during a violent earthquake, which
lasted day and a night and was
accompanied by foundations of the
ocean, the island was wholly sub
merged. The account adds that
many years thereafter, the sea in
this part was unnavigable because
of the shoals caused by the sunken
lands.
This ancient legend may, and prob
ably did, have some historical cir

Excellent Business In
Breton Marriage Mart

No depression exists in the mar
riage mart of Brittany. After the
final count following a three-day
marriage festival there, it was dis
covered that a conservative estimate
placed the number of ceremonies at
1.400. This made a days average
approximately 466 brides and bride
grooms. This is the result Of a cen
tury-old tradition which claims that
the best days for getting married are
the Monday, Tuesday and Wednes-
day following Easter. To comply
with this custom in all Breton towns
the men and maidens, clad in their
picturesque costumes, are married
each year. Breton bagpipes play
the wedding marches and there is
dancing in all the public squares
The vows of fidelity are made in
French at the marie, but in Breton
in the churches.

Isolated Munitions Depot

Hundreds of miles from any ocean
is located the newest United States
naval munitions depot. 1t is in the
center of 211 square miles of gov
eminent land at Hawthorne, New.
Just to the north of the naval store
house in Walker lake. The unusual
location of the depot, far from the
fleets which ii serves. is due largely
to the factor of safety. Here in the
desert explosions would do only local
harm. AT a seaport they would
mean a catastrophe.

ly in writing when answering question
naires, whether or not of an embarrass-
ing nature. Many, ofcourse, will ignore
them altogether, as they have in the
past-which sometimes has proved the
better way, a case of discretion as the
better part of valor."
Personally, have no quarrel with the
QUESTIONABLE of the Railroad Borther-
hoods Legislative Board-it's any or
ganization's or individual voters privi-
lege to shoot any and all sorts of ques-
tions at candidates. But it strikes me
that the intimation contained, namely,
that the candidate is not progressive
unless he agrees with this particular
legislative board" is bit far-fetched
to say the least.
The last question, for instance, reads
eff elected, will you introduce bill to
prohibit the operation of trucks and
buses for hire on the highways of
Minnesota"
At first blush, this looks like a de-
liberate attempt to put the candidate
ION the spot" as favoring railroads
against their motor truck competition
but I wonder if an affirmative answer
to this question wouldn't look good to
the railroad man, but not so good to the
average business man or farmer.
The first of the six questions on this
particular list reads: eff elected, will
you support and vote for the candidate
for speaker of the house selected at the
progressive members caucus?"
Who in tarnation is going to de-
termine who is progressive, in the
first place, and then how can any legis-
lative candidate reasonably be expected
to go on record Tin writing) for a can
didate for speaker without knowing who
it might be.
Verify, the way of the legislative
candidate is hard-and going to be
harder, if this QUESTIONABLE pest

STATE CAPITOL CHATTER
BY G.. B. WOLLAN.

st. Paul, Aug. 16, 1932-It begins to
appear that political mindednesS is
going to be more on the epidemic
order this year than in campaigns for
many a long year. According to re-
ports coming in from candidates al
ready out on the stump and from
members of the various party campaign
committees who have been in st. Paul
for meetings, the voters all over the
the political situation than usual. If
this interest continues to grow, as
it ordinarily does during the last two
or three months of campaign, it is
likely that the vote in Minnesota in
November will be the heaviest in the
states history.
The former top vote in the state was
in the last presidential election, in 1928,
when the total vote cast for governor
was 100000 and that for president
was 971,000.
The vote in presidential years is
always heavier than in the so-called
off years. Two years ago, for instance,
the total number of ballots cast for
governor was only $4,000, or about
215,000 less than in 1928.
Tens of thousands of both Re
publicans and Democrats refused to
vote for governor in 1880, many Re-
publicans for one reason or another
not wanting to vote for Ray Chase,
while a lot of Democrats wouldn't vote

is a time to turn the kids loose, letting

nourished and irritable no matter how
much he eats or how much he plays
outdoors unless he gets his regular
rest. Many children arrive at school
in September thinner than they were
when they left school in June simply
because they have been allowed to
wear themselves out in the very months
when they should have been laying up
needed reserve of health and energy.
Parents should realize that they
cannot wait for the child to show how
tired he is before they call a halt.
The more exhausted the child, the more
animated and vociferous he very
often seems to be. The problem of the
tired child which educators are talking
about so much is not confined to the
school room. Children wear themselves
out at play as well as in school, and
no child is going to return to school in
September in his best shape unless
he has plenty of rest.
"Ten hours of sleep out of every "a
is just as important in summer as in
winter for the nine and ten year oldS.
Younger children require more. And
it is useless as well as unwise to ex-
pect them to make it up in the
morning"
