Save by Spending

And this would be true not
only in the State of Texas, but
in the States of Georgia, New
York, Massachusetts,, California,
Illinois and other States where
an intelligent concentration OF
combat forces dictated by de-
fense needs, rather than by
political greed, would necessi-
tate new construction.
AS soon as the President has
determined, in the light Of
military studies, which Army
posts ought to be retained and
expanded, he will order the
abandonment of useless posts.
Then will come an allotment
to complete the Army housing
program and rescue our defend
ers with the colors afield from
the unsanitary and utterly in
decent shacks in which large
part of our small combat forces
and their families are still
compelled to live.
More than 80 per cent OF
every dollar which Mr.. Roose-
velt will authorize to be spent
for new Army housing will go
into the pockets of wage
earners in the building trades.
And most of the balance will go
for building materials.
Although the proposed con-
centration in fewer posts Of
what is left of our regular Army
will require some new construc-
ton, the money thus spent will
be returned manifold to the
public treasury in future years
by savings. These savings will
come through the elimination
of maintenance costs of many
dilapidated old posts which
would have been vacated long
ago but for the meddlesome in
reference of pork-barrel polltl'
clans at Washington and their
followers in the several States.

Abiding Faith

lament the Negro's love of ease.
his readiness to relax, his habit
of taking nothing seriously.
But these are natural evidences
of his deep-seated philosophy.
To the Negro the end of exist
ence is not the accumulation of
wealth, but the enjoyment Of
life. The Epicurean said:
Eat, drink and be merry, for
tomorrow we die" The Negro
says: Eat, drink and be
merry. AS for dying, his faith
in an after life is so complete
that it illumines for him even
the Valley of the Shadow. His
religion is effective, but not be-
cause it keeps him from what
we term sin, but because it
reconciles him to the twin
enigmas of life and death.
These are the traits which
have enabled him to face the
desperate and endless days OF
the past three years and stand
up under them with a laugh as
he plunks his banjo and pours
out his rich voice in the splr-

Bayreuth.
Legends Preserved
Coming through the forest,
Richard Wagner caught a
glimpse of the grim Gosswein-
stein castle seemingly isolated
and unapproachable, on it's
steep hill, and contrasting in
the sparkling sunshine, with the
dark fir trees of the lower
slopes of the hill. It was easy
for him to picture this castle as
the safe resting place of the
Holy Grail, as the legend has it.
In the lowlandS of the lower
Rhine, an ancient story fixes
the birthplace of Siegfried, the
hero of the Nibelung. This is
at Xanten, near Cleve, and
visitors are shown the site
where his castle stood, centuries
before the magnificent Xanten
cathedral was built. From here
the gallant young knight started
on his trip up the Rhine to
Worms to free Kriemhild,
daughter of a king. The mem
ory of the rich store of legends
preserved in Worms gave Wag-
ner the inspiration for his
trilogy.

ONCE OVERS
Business Atmosphere

OuSAAAC0S
Your business place should be
devoid Of nonsense and horse
play but it need not take on the
clammy atmosphere of a
morgue.
There are too many places
where people must talk in
undertones.
Employees under a strain give
a visitor the impression that he
should hurry through what
business he has and get out.
If you want customers - and
what business can exist with
out them-you must give
friendly, courteous treatment.
When a customer is met by a
tenSeness in every word and
action among those with whom
he plans to spend his money, he
won't go back any oftener than
is absolutely necessary.
There is that perfunctory
"thank you," utterly failing to
prove there is any sincerity
back of it.
People don't like to trade
where they are waited upon by
a lot of machines or people who
act like machines.
When they have business to
transact, it means money to the
owner of the place and the
spender is entitled to courteous
treatment, certainly.
How do you and your clerks
greet customers?

Writes Waldemar Kaempffert In

"Since January, 1880, the New

memory lapses as serious as that of
Colonel Raymond Robins. There
must have been hundreds more of
which the press never heard. Men
and women who forget who they
are. and who wander about pathet-
ically-totally new personalities 80
far as the world Is concerned-are
commoner than many of us suppose.
"The truth is that we all suffer a
little from amnesia or loss of MEM
DRY. Who has not had the expert
ence of trying to recall the name of
a person or place, apparently IN
vain, only to have 1t flash up wildly
In the mind hours later and for no
apparent reason? Normal amnesia'
the physicians call the phenomenon.
Luckily we have the power Of re-
constructing and synthesizlng mental
records Of past events. 1t Is only
when the Darkness covers long pc
RODS of time that amnesia becomes
alarming, that we lost all recollec-
ton Of our real selves, and that we
actually develop new personalities.
although they know little enough
about the mind and its vagaries,
psychiatrists classify annesias.
There are localized %amnesias, which
affect only certain groups of menu
cries. A mar may forget how to
walk, for example, but not how to
crawl or hop his memory Of writing
may have gone, but he will still be
able to talk.
"Then there are ~retrograde am
nesias, In which 1t is impossible to
remember what occurred immedi-
ately before some mental or physical

amnesia forgets experiences almost
as fast as they occur. Paramnesiacs

O HARD TO TIME
TRAVEL OF STORM
Simple Way to Estimate Its
Approach.

Two questions enter most peoples
minds at the approach of a thunder
storm. One is how fast the storm
is approaching. The other is the dis
TANGO away of the lightning flashes.
1t is easy to estimate the distance
from the observer at which a flash
of lightning has taken place by
counting the seconds which elapse
between the sight Of the flash and
the sound of the accompanying thun-
der.
Light travels with a speed of 1885,
900 mile; a second. A beam of light
could encircle the earth's equator
seven times in less than a second.
For all practical purposes, therefore
the observer may assume that he
sees the lightning flash at practically
the second It occurs.
Sound, on the other hand, travels
much more slowly than does light
The speed of sound is measured In
feet rather than in miles. It's speed
Is about 1,066 feet per second.
This means, therefore, that IL you
hear the thunder one second after
you see the flash. the fash took
place 1906 feet away. Since the
method is fairly crude, IL may be
assumed for the sake of simplicity
that every second elapsed denotes
1000 feet. Therefore, II you coun'
three seconds between flash and
thunder, re fash was 5000 feet away.
estimating the distance away of
me lightning flashes will help n to
estimate how fast the storm Is ap-
preaching. Obviously, as the storm
draws nearer, the elapsed time be
tween flashes and thunder will grow
shorter and shorter.
Occasionally thunder may be heard
wnen the storm Is ten miles away.
In that case the lapse of time be-
tween the flash and the sound would
be fifty seconds.
When q thunderstorm Is observed
In the distance, the first thing to do
Is to ascertain Its course. If the
storm is %retreating, the clouds will
appear to dwindle in size.
If the storm Is moving at right
angles to the observer. the motion
of the clouds will be visible.
If the storm Is approaching, the
clouds will appear to be growing
larger and larger.
Thunderstorms travel with an av-
erage speed of twenty-five miles an
hour. 1t is possible, however, to
time a storm fairly well by the
method described.
Let us suppose that you note the
time between flash and thunder and
that 1t is forty seconds. That means
the storm Is eight miles away.
Five minutes later, let us say, the
time between flash and thunder is
Red Lodge daily news combined with Carbon County news., 1933-04-12

thirty seconds: The storm is now
six miles away. In other words, the
storm has travelled two miles In five
minutes.
Since the storm is then six miles
from where you are, you have ex-
actly fifteen minutes In which to seek
shelter before the storm breaks.
Benjamin Franklin, though prob
ably not the first to suggest that
lightning was electrical in its nature,
was the first to suggest a reasonable
mechanism for lightning.
He first suggested that lightning
resembled an electric discharge In
November, 1749. In 1850. he speaks
of "the fire of electricity and that OF
lightning being the same."-David
Dietz, In the New York World-Tele-

EGGS ARE
OF HIGHEST GRADE
College Class Makes Study
of Various Types.

wNU Service.
A wide difference between the
price and the value of eggs and the
superiority of values represented by
branded or trade-marked eggs were
found by a class In poultry market
ing recently, when the students
made a study of several different
grades Of eggs. The students, IN
der the supervision of John II. von-
dell, their instructor, prepared a
score card, assigning values to
such characteristics as weight,
cleanness, internal quality, size Of
air cell, which Is al indication Of
freshness, and uniformity of size
and color. Eggs which could not
be faulted on any of these charc-
teristics were assigned a value Of
SO cents, which was the retail price
of Massachusetts Special eggs at
that time.
The students examined eggs Of
each grade, scoring them carefully
and rating them on the basis of the
total score. The results indicated
the wide variation between price
and quality In eggs handled by some
stores.
The highest quality eggs avail
able were those sold as Massachu-
sets Specials, bearing the label
provided by the State Department
of Agriculture. These eggs had q
quality rating Of 81 cents. while
priced at SO cents. Perhaps the best
values for price were trade-marked
brands of cold storage eggs, han
died by a local store. These eggs
we're priced at 33 cents and had a
quality value of IS cents. Another
lot Of trade-marked cold storage
eggs sold at the same price and had
a quality value of 80 cents.
