Paper Currency Today
Mere Promises to Pay

Paper money may be looked
upon as token money carried to its
final extreme. A piece Of it has no
value at all in itself; the value de-
ponds wholly on a promise printed
on it. But although the idea OF
paper money might be expected to
have developed easily from token
money, no one In the West seems to
have considered the matter feasible
until more than q thousand years
after token coins appeared, says q
bulletin Of the National Geographic
society.
Paradoxically, the first paper"
money was brick, for the germ of
the idea seems to have been born
in Babylon more than 1900 years
before the Christian era. Bonds for
the repayment Of loans were writ
ten on clay tablets and baked.
These passed from hand to hand as
representations Of the amounts In
volved. Similar deposits were made
with individuals, and clay-brick
drafts were written against them.
Later brick bills of exchange trans
ferred wealth from place to place.

Loves Labor Lost

Someone no doubt spent a lot Of
energy for nothing Sunday night
or Monday morning when they
went to the trouble of tearing one
of the heavy oak doors from the
sill at the Kennewick theatre. An
investigation of the house showed
that nothing apparently had been
disturbed.
It is probable that some trans
tents noticed the hundreds of per-
sons lined up at the show house all
Saturday waiting to see the free
cinema being staged by the bust
ness men, and were under the i'm
preston that it would make fat
haul for them.
After breaking through the door
they were confronted with the big
sign that had been taken in from
the side walk that gave all the de-
tails of the free show. Free show
and no haul.

Few Places Where Ono
Can Escape From Noise

Not long ago an intellectual
Frenchman gave utterance to cry
of alarm In journal, Signalling
that soon 1t would be impossible to
find corner In all French terri
tory distant enough from the noise
and. disturbance Of a railroad, high
way, factory, or amusement resort !;
and refuge where one may still en-
joy the quietude and tranquility OF
nature.
He demanded the creation OF
zone Of silence where there may
never be any of these discOrdant
and enervating intrusions. In our
own country, with its greater dens-
ity Of population, the problem is
still more acute. There is only In
the forest of st. Hubert q little
space where there is no railroad
or tramway track; where the high
ways are sufficiently far away that
the pollution of motor cars does
not penetrate. The only sounds
that break the silence In this bit OF
Arcadia are the harmOnies OF ma
ture: The songs OF the birds, the
chirping OF the crickets, the rustling
of the leaves and the murmur of the
brooks.
One must walk to get there, OF
course, and carry ones own provi-
sions, for there is no tavern nor
even a cottage, where one may OBJ
tain refreshments In this quarter
of st. Hubert's wood. Behold q

Eastern Truml pet.

Tibetan trumpets made OF conch
shells, mounted in embossed brass
and copper, or gilt bronze inlaid
with stones, are on exhibition
among the oriental collection at
Field Museum of Natural History.
Chicago.
In Tibet the cOnch shells In
which the spirals wind from left to
right, instead of the usual form from
right to left. are very high priced.
The trumpets made from them are
used to summon the lamas to their
daily prayer meetings.
Similar tyumpets are used by
boatmen In middle China and In
India, where they are said to have
been invented. They are employed
to initiate the roar of celestial ele-
plants.
