Well to Think Before
Taking 'tDirect Action

A French film actor has just been
sentenced to six months imprison-
ment for assaulting two strangers in
the streets Of Paris. He explained
that he did it because he did not
like their faces"
His fate may deter others from
making similar experiments, but a
good many people may sympathize
with another form of "direct action
tried by lady in New York bus.
When the driver failed to stop the
vehicle at her request, she politely
took his hat and threw it out of the
window"
But here, too, there are a good
many possible "snags," and the ex-
ample is hardly one to be followed.
Too hasty reaction to things
that annoy us is, indeed, usually a
mistake. A British mother discov-
cred that the other day when she
thrashed her fifteen-year-old son be-
cause he came home soaking wet.
She thought he had fallen into the
local canal-really he had jumped in
to rescue younger boy who was in
danger of drowning.-London An

ANDES MOUNTAIN
TOWERS BEYOND
FAMED EVEREST

MouEt Everest is accepted as the
highest mountain in the world. But
what do we mean by high? Eleva-
lions are given in terms of sea level.
If we measure them from the CEN
ter Of the earth it turns out that
Chimborazo in the Andes is 1900
meters (7,217.S feet) higher than
Mount Everest.
In presenting this argument in Die
Umschau, DR.. G. Rosch points out
that accurate measurements have
been made Of the distance of sea
level from the center Of the earth
from the equator to the poles. Where
the distance is not known it can be
deduced with an error Of but a few
meters. While 1t is true that the
earth Is not perfect sphere, or even
an ellipsoid, no correction need be
made on the score Of figure because
the earth's diameter does not vary
sufficiently.

Ursula has just been to see me

And when recognition comes, as II

developing this musical ge1ius

In the beginning, it just happened
! used to practice the piano each
morning during the time Ursula's
Mamie was having breakfast, and
from the age Of three weeks the baby
was brought into the room and Law
there while played. 1t made no diff
ference whether she was awake or
asleep; she never cried. When she
was able to sit up was startled one
morning to see her swaying back
wards and forwards to the rhythm
Of the music.
At six months old, she sang her
first musical sounds, two notes at
the interval Of a third, in imitation
of the sound made by the swinging
of hanging lamp. At eleven months
old, she sang the first phrase of a
song, Of which I had just played the
introduction-a phrase which did
not occur in the pianoforre part.
Ursula now began to show strong
likes and dislikes. Mendelssohn's
"Lied No. 10" in B minor was a IA
vorite and she always chuckled when
played it. Heller's Studies" ap-
pealed to her and Handels "Har-
monious Blacksmith" Before she
was year old, she surprised every
body by snatching at copy Of her
brothers 'Little Folks" which con-
tanned a page Of music, shouting glee-
fully: "Pian', pian'."
A pile Of old magazines was
brought and she picked out the page
of music from each one, with the
same cry. She now began to identify
me with the instrument, calling out !:
"Pian', pian'," directly she caught
sight of me. At twenty-five months,
she could sing fifteen songs, such as
"Since First l Saw Your Face" and
other old English songs.
She never wearied of listening.
One Sunday Afternoon, played to her
for over three hours, and she sat by
the piano in her high chair listening
intently and occasionally volunteer
ing a comment: "Dat welly jolly r.

II was no joke to a child with a

At two years old, Ursula recoe-

would find the one she wanted in

NORMAN Okla. Oct 19-Every

This theory. advanced by Dr..
Frank Melton. associate professor
Of geology 90 the University Of
Oklahoma. was discussed in scien-
tihc circles on the campus today.

ton that could wipe out every liv-
ing thing vas shown in the aerial

tons Of meteoric rock fell, DR.. Mel
ton said.
The pictures showed hundreds Of
these eliptical scars side by side,
covering an ares 400 miles along the
coast line and 100 miles inland.
Geological calculations indicated
that the scars were formed 10000

dimensions that erosion has not
succeeded in obliterating them.

some celestial body, were travelling
at a rate Of twenty-five miles a
second when they struck the earth
and we're in such a molten state
that in many instances they turned
to gas before they cooled, the scien-
fist believes.
The presence Of these unusual
typographical features first was
made known to science in 1895. But
it was not until 1892 that Mr.. Mel
tons study was complete enough to
allow him to advance his theory.
During the last two years he has
continued his studies in this area.

Selecting a Horse

With the demand for horses increas-
ing the following points which might
prove valuable to the buyer are Of
fered. 1t Is not the condition of the
horse alone that should be considered.
True enough it is well to be sure he
has no blemishes and that his build,
ETC., indicate he is well fitted for work,
endurance and long life. But even
more important than this Is whether
or not he is fitted for the particular
type of work you will want him to do.
On the farm the different jobs for the
horse vary a great deal in nature, and
therefore the animal best fitted for all
Is the one to be chosen. The large
horse weighing around ton may be
very good for jobs where a great
amount of strength is required but the
extra weight might slow him up
enough SO that he will not be efficient
for numerous other lighter tasks. The
medium-sized, well-proportioned horse,
provided he has a show of energy and
willingness, usually proves to be the
best fitted for general farm work.

Cutting Hay Crops

Alfalfa, clovers and other hay crops
should be cut at the usual stages Of
maturity this year, even though the
drouth in many sections has stunted
the growth of the plants, says A. G..
Army, field crops specialist, Univer-
sity Farm, st. Paul. There is nothing
to be gained by delaying the first cut
ting, as any additional growth can be
harvested in later cuttings and the
quality of the first crop will be better
If harvested at the usual stage. AL
falfa should be cut when one-fourth
of the plants are in bloom; clover
when the first heads are turning
brown, and timothy right after bios
soming.

Sterilize Soils, Control
Weeds. Using Electricity

Sterilizing soils by use of electricity,
to render them disease and weed free,
in the opinion of engineers in the de-
partment of agricultural engineering
at the Ohio State university, promises
to supplant older methods employed
by greenhouse men in sterilizing soils
for propagating benches, potwork, In
hotbeds and cold frames.
Up to now, chemical and steam and
dry heat have been employed. Two
ways of using electricity have been
devised. One uses electrical heating
elements buried in the soil. Soil itself,
in the other, is the conductor. The
electricity, passing through the soil,
heats the soil moisture to steam,
which does the sterilizing.
About one kilowatt-hour of electro
city is required to sterilize a cubic
foot of soil. A sterilizer holding five
cubic feet of soil can be built at a
small cost for materials.
