NEW SPEED CAMERA
SETS WORLD RECORD
1000 to 5000 Picturesb a
Second Its Capacity. I'll.

Paris.-The French Academy Of
Science viewed the worlds fastest
photography when an invention was
recently demonstrated white b
showed moving pictures taken at
1000 exposures second.
The Photographic invention was
introduced by M. d'Arsonval, one
of the members of the institute,
and was the invention of Profess
sors Huguenard and Magnan.
The cinematographic machine,
which was not greatly different
from an ordinary camera, showed
clear pictures at a speed varying
from 1000 to 5000 a second r..
By a special process in exposure,
together with the use of revoly,
ing shutter, a film turning three
meters second produced 2,4O0 pic
lures, the luminous impressions be-
ing recorded at one six-thousandth
Of second.
The pictures were those Of a
large fly in action and also some
small birds in flight, taken at close
range. When the films were shown
in reduced speed it was possible to
measure the wing stroke Of the fly
as 80 a second. The movements
Of the birds were observed in the
most minute detail.
The invention contributes valu-
able aid to scientific documentary
film work and will be especially
used in aeronautic research. Here
tofore only $50 views were obtain
able a second.

September Gas Tax
Ahead of Year Ago
Highway Bulletin Makes Analysis
of Gas Tax Returns for
Month of September

While inshipments of gasoline in
to Minnesota in September were A.
$685. gallons below the inship-
ments of the preceding month, they
were 1,325,829 gallons more than
those of September of last year, a
state highway bulletin reports.
Gasoline shipped into the state in
September this year totaled 40,071,-
1877 gallons as compared with 49,
745, 1853 gallons in the same month
of 1881, according to the records Of
the State Division of Oil Inspection,
and the tax returns indicate con-
siderably more motor vehicle opera
ton during the month than a year
ago, the bulletin states.
Returns to state and county
highway funds were 1897, 408.30 this
year as against $944,529 in Sep
TENDER of last yeaer. an increase
this year Of 2,879.24. These re-
turns furnished $664,938.86 for
work on roads in the state trunk
highway System, and $685., 469.44
for county road work.
Refunds because of the use Of
gasoline in exempted classifications
amounted to $166,1SS5S less in
September this year than last year.
The number of claims was 1,063
less. Refunds because of gaso-
line used in highway work totaled
$13,221.23 more this year than in
the same period a year ago, indi-
eating, the report points out,
heavier continuation of construc-
ton work into the months than in
1881. Claims for refunds on gaso-
line used in agricultural work
numbered 1000 less this year and
aggregated 22,844.68 less than in
September of last year.

Two Sisters, IS and So, ,
Meet for First Time

Seminole, Okla.-Two sisters, one

the world from their birthplace.
The older of the two sisters, Mrs.
Mary Frumhoff of st. Joseph, Mo-,

from her native hamlet in northern
Russia to the Black sea region. The
older sister never seturned to the
northern village.
The younger sister, Mrs. Julia
Shannon, San Antonio, Texas, was
born in the same little Russian
town after the older sister had
moved away. The younger sister
was married in her native village

lea. Ten years later Mrs. Frumhoff
and her husband emigrated to
America.

Big Crashes Slash
Minnesota Standing
Accident Reduction Gains of First
Half of Year are Being Cut
Considerably

Traffic crashes in Minnesota dur
ing the first half of the year caused
1873 deaths as compared with 270
for the same period of 1881, but the
good showing of the first six
months is rapidly being lost to the
state by the increasing number of
fatalities from motor vehicle acct
dents in the latter half of the year,
a state highway bulletin reports.
OF the 1913 deaths in the first
six months of the year, 81 were
irom accidents happening in the
three larger cities of the state,
Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth.
This, the bulletin states, is 16 more
deaths than what is looked upon
as normal proportion" for these
cities; but reports of the past three
months indicate a return to the sit
uation of deaths from traffic acct
dents occurring on country high
ways and in the smaller cities and
towns running more than double
those of the three large cities.
Records of the division of vital
statistics of the state department
of health show So counties to have
contributed to the toll of traffic &C
cident deaths during the first half
of 1892. Deaths from collisions be-
tween automobiles and railroad
trains or street cars numbered 8
during the period, but in the three
months now passed OF the second
half of the year fatalities from this
class of traffic accidents are in ex-
cess of that number.
Minnesota's percentage OF school
children killed by motor vehicles
continues to show decrease, the bull
letin reports. School authorities
and the police departments of Min
neapolis, st. Paul and Duluth un-
hesitatingly give large measure of
credit to the effective functlonlng
of school patrols. Through the
cooperation of municipal and school
authorities, American Legion posts,
automobile clubs and safety coun-
ciis in numerous other places with
the state highway patrol this eff
fective means of accident reduction
is rapidly being extended through
out the state.
The coming of cold and slippery
weather has witnessed pronounc-
ed increase in traffic accidents
each of the past several years. Pc
destrains are in dark clothing and
more difficult to see after sun
down. Collars are turned up, and
heads lowered against the wind.
Brakes applied suddenly act very
differently than when pavements
are not slippery. Unless particular
ly greater care is exercised by both
pedestrians and motorists, the num-
Der of lives lost through motor We
hicle accidents in 1882 will surpass
last years total of 6,647, the bulle-
tin points out, in spite of the good
record made in the first half of the
year.

home, he said, "Well, son, how are
the tables coming"
"Oh not so bad" said truthful
Stanley. I'm good in rithmatic,
but Bobby can draw better and
Stuffy is the best speller in the
class"
Mrs. Standard decided to ask the
mothers at her study group the
next afternoon what they thought
of this s"fad" Of making COMPARE
sons among children. IT told Stan
ley that he was just as good as
anyone in the class; that he could
draw and spell as we'll as anyone
if only he tried harder. I don't
want him to get an inferiority COM
pick. Then he said, yeah, but
drawings harder for me-"
well, visited the school to find
out where my child got the idea of
comparing himself with other chill
dren," a neighbor put in, land I'll
confess I was a bit shocked to find
the school encouraging such an
attitude-and that was way down
in first grade. I can't see how
such an attitude can be healthy.
Suppose I tell Junior that Chucky
Dolan's playing real marches on
the piano comes from Chucky's
practising long hours, but Junior
knows that no matter how hard he
tries, he will never be able to play
as easily as Chucky who is musical.
Won't that discourage him and
keep him from trying?"
The coach's wife had an answer
to that. II think it's a good thing
for children to know their own limi-
tations," she said. My twins are
only in kindergarten, but they al
ready understand that there are
some things which come easily to
them-these are fun to do-and
others at which they must work
hard to do well-and these are
fun to master. It's a good attitude
toward advanced school work if
they keep it up"
The group looked to the leader.
She added that, in explaining to
the child that there are certain
things at which he must work hard
er than his neighbor, who in turn
finds more difficult the things that
are easy for the first child, we
must make certain that the child
understands; that he does not take
the attitude that what is harder to
do is scarcely worth doing at all, or
that it is a dreaded task.
and" another mother put in, 81
think it is good thing for us
mothers to visit school sometimes
say before our own children enter
and make comparisons for our
selves. I did this to learn what
the school would expect of my child
and found other children of her
age doing things that had thought
too hard for her, playing with tools
had forbidden her, and then I
realized how I had innocently been
handicapping her for school life.
Besides I got better perspective
on my own child's abilities and
shortcomings when had a chance
to compare her with so many chill
dren of her own age. 1t helps me
to keep my balance"

Modern Methods CONQUER
Many Swamp Areas
Road Builders Use New Means to
Overcome Swamp Settling
Bulletin Reports

Building highway up in the air
and then lowering it into a chan
mel made by the help of its own
weight and dynamite is a modern
development of highway construc-
ton that enables engineers to put
non-settling roads across swampy
areas.
In past years, highways con-
structed across marshes frequent
ly developed socalled sink holes
which necessitated raising of the
road surface year after year. New
dirt or gravel placed on top serv-
ed only as a temporary lift. In
stances were not uncommon where
it seemed impossible to overcome
the sinking. In some places, put
ting on more material resulted in
upheavals in the swamp on each
side of the roadway.
Now, by the use of modern meth
DDS, it is possible for highway to
be placed on a firm foundation al
most regardless of the depth of
peat or soft material in the
swampy area, the bulletin states.
Soundings are taken by means of
which the engineer can determine
accurately the amount of debtn in
spongy material that must be over
come to obtain a solid footing for
the highway. An especially con-
structed sampling point or drill, de-
signed by Joseph Hignmark, one Of
the men in charge of this class of
work under the department, is used
for this purpose.
After this preliminary work,
earth is hauled on the swamp sec
ton and piled until a long ridge
has been constructed. If displace-
ment of swamp material to a depth
of ten feet is necessary in order to
reach solid foundation, the ridge is
constructed to that height above
what is planned to be the regular
elevation of the completed high
way. Charges of dynamite are
then placed in position to blow the
underlying swamp material out of
the way, and so expertly are these
charges placed that the blow
goes out sideways and the ridge of
earth settles down with the sur
face practically unbroken.
Several locations, that for many
years have caused considerable
trouble through continued settle
ment, have been successfully treat
ed by this new method. The re-
suits obtained have been so salts
factory that pavement may be
constructed over these fills within
a year or two after placement with
out danger of it warping out of
shape. If this method were not fol-
lowed, and a pavement slab placed
over a swampy area settlement
would occur within a very short
time and traffic would be serious
ly Inconvenience due to the unev-
eness of the surface, the bulletin
concludes.
