Golden Plover Fastest
FLYER in Crossing Sea

The routes of the different migra-
tory birds are as varied as the birds
themselves. Some fly down the Allan
tic coast to Florida where they stop
awhile in the tropics before continu-
Ing their Over-water hops to South
America. Others fly down the Missis-
sippi valley and continue southwark
across the Gulf of Mexico. This route
is, in fact, one of the most important,
1t being reported to the biological sur
vey that during nearly eight months
of the year, literally night after night,
the air is filled with countless thou
sands of the migrating hordes, bound
for their unseen destinations.
The speed Of migrating birds varies
greatly. Some never STOP either by
day or by night, until their destina-
ton is reached. Others lOiter lazily
along, feeding as they go. The fastest
time made by any bird on its migra-
tory flight is that of the golden plover,
a sea bird. This intrepid traveller
leaves its summer home in Nova Sco-
tia and without stop, flying almost
entirely over water comes to rest in
South America in a little over three
days and three nights.
Strangely enough, this same golden
plover In returning to Nova Scotia in
the spring follows an entirely differ
ent route from the one used in the
fall. Instead of flying northward across
the Atlantic, 1t starts westward across
the Andes mountains, then up the
coast until 1t passes over Central
America. Continuing northward, the
plover spans part of the Gulf of Mex
leo and flies back to its nesting
grounds by way of the Mississippi
river valley.

American Was Inventor
of Engraving Process

The steel engraving industry owes
It's success in producing postage
stamps and banknotes to the ingenuity
of Jacob Perkins of Massachusetts,,
who invented a process for transferr-
Ing designs from the original die to
a steel plate, says a writer In the
Chicago Tribune. In this process all
of the characteristics which make line
engraving the pre-eminent method of
reproducing designs are retained and
the resulting prints are as much gem
uine engravings as though the entire
plate Of several hundred subjects had
been entirely engraved by hand. To
engrave the individual stamp subjects
on a plate would be prohibitive from
standpoint Of cost and time.
Perkins saw his method made OBJ
ligatory in banknote printing and in
1919 on the advice of the British min
lister went to England to explain the
process to the officials Of the Bank of
England. Here he had less success, but
knowing the merits of his invention
he organized company to exploit the
Idea in London. Upon the advent Of
the postage labels invented by Lon
don concern, the firm became contrac-
tors for their manufacture. Thus the
first postage stamps, although an Eng
fish invention, were produced by an
American process which is still used
for all of the securities, paper money,
and stamps of the United States.

SOMERSET COUNTY MAN
WAS BRADDOCK TEAMSTER
Casper Harbaugh, Records Re
veal, Served in Inflated Army

A small Somerset county (Pa.)
cemetery has yielded another name OF
interest to the registers of veterans
graves in that State. 1t is that of Cas-
per Harbaugh, who is buried in the
Cramer burial plot near New Center
vile, in Somerset county.
Born in Darmstadt, Germany, in
1873, Harbaugh died in Middlecreek
Township almost one hundred years
later, and his experiences include a
part in the Inflated expedition Of
General Braddock. Harbaugh is men,
toned in the History of Somerset
and Bedford Counties, Pennsylvania
printed in 1906, as follows:
Casper Harbaugh, who settled in
Middlecreek Township about 1890
was with the Braddock expedition. He
was a teamster in the Braddock cam
paign and served through the bloody
defeat which that Inflated expedition
suffered. The story of the defeat is
substantially the same in its details
as history records, although in some
few instances it differs somewhat. He
denied the charge made in at least
some histories that the Pennsylvania
Dutch transfers fled like sheep at the
first onslaught of the French and
their savage allies.
"His statement of this in substance
was that General Braddock, before re-
ceiving his fatal wound, had given or
ders that the wagons be brought off,
but tn eattempt to turn them soon led
to hopeless ENHANCEMENT in the I'M
derbrush and saplings that skirted the
narrow road.
"The savages were attempting to
cut off the line of retreat to the river
and under these circumstances, such
of the teamsters as Remained unhurt
each cut a horse loose from their
wagon and mounting him, sought to
effect their escape as best they could.
Harbaugh kept with the main body OF
the remnant of the army that escaped
the slaughter. He was an eyewitness
of the burial of Braddock, which was
by daylight and not by torchlight, as
asserted by some.
"Neither did Washington read the
burial service. The earth afterward
was replaced and thrown down so as
to obhterate the grave. Casper Har-
baugh was blind during the last years
of his life and died June l, 1882, hav-
ing attained the age of only few
weeks less than SO years"

team. !. 'it9r h}'
Oakland led in the early part of the
game, but two field goals by Murphy
and one by Selby gave Friendsville the
lead, after which they were never
headed. A field goal by Dusic just be-
fore the half ended enabled Oakland
to tie the score, but during the second
half Friendsville scored five field goals
to give them a substantial margin.
Oakland was without the services
of White or Rice, but The team fought
hard in an effort to overcome the odds
stacked against them. Friendsville

THE MARYLAND BIBLE SOCIETYS CORNER
''The Word of Our God Shall Stand Forever

the men, unarmed and unprepared for
resistance, were murdered in cold
blood while these thieving Moabites
made off with the little savings of the
people.
The scriptural account of Shamgar,
the son of Anath, is pitifully meagre;
nor do we find more than mere men
ton of Anath as the progenitor of
this fighting Judge. The name Anath
means "a hearkening, a granting"
which indicates a generous, unselfsh
nature, a disposition to serve the
needs of those about him as best he
might.
Shamgar was never really a Judge
of Israel, though he was a mighty de-
liverer of his people, fighting the
Philistines single-handed with no bet
ter weapon than an OK goad. His
method of warfare seems to have been
the meeting of his enemies on the
open road, where, when attacked, he
disposed of them with his OK goad, a
heavy staff possibly shod with iron or
some other metal. Shamgar did not
follow the by-roads like his weaker
and fearful countrymen, but contin-
ued to drive his oxen along the high
ways, Winding his own business until
he was attacked. Few road agents es-
capped the furious thrusts of Sham
gar's OK goad. He attempted no ag-
gressive warfare, but like a good
home and country-loving citizen he
had no use for the pacifstic doctrine
of peace at any price. His motto
might we'll have been that of one of
our early colonial flags, rattlesnake
coiled, with the legend: Don't tread
on me-" Those who violated Sham
gar's rights on the public highway
rarely lived to tell the tale. All told,
600 Philistines fell before Shamgar's
OK goad, and it is written of him that
he also delivered Israel.

Eighty years of peace can hardly be
parallelled in modern history. When
we reflect that in the short period of
our national life there have been,
since the Declaration of independence
in 1776, no fewer than five major
conflicts, the achievements of these
early Judges of Israel in subjecting
their enemies and preserving peaceful
relations with them for nearly a CEN
fury, grow in magnitude.
The troubled condition of the land
when Shagmar rose as the deliverer
is revealed in the Song of Deborah,
which doubtless sets forth the atti-
tude of the Jewish inhabitants of the
land toward the Moabites who had
once more begun to afflict them Deb
orah was chanting an epic of victory
in highly poetic vein; but true pic
ture of the frightened populace may
be found in her description of the for
saken highways: "In the days of
Shamgar, the son of Anath, and in
the days of Joel, the highways were
unoccupied, and the travellers walked
through byways." Bandits were every
where on the main thoroughfares, all
waiting to set upon the luckless trav-
eler who might venture on a lone
journey, as did the man who was rob-
bed on the Jericho road. Even cara
vans were unsafe unless protected by
sturdy bands of armed men more than
a match for the marauders in num-
bers and equipment
Villages were simply wiped out,
women and children carried off, and

like and soft, and Of olive brown color,
1t has many tentacles round It's mouth,
and when 1t has caught its food II
floats 1t through its body on a stream
of water, which 1t Is continually suck
ing In. This sea water contains lime
and somehow the coral animal draws
the lime from the water and uses It
to build a tiny platform for it to rest
on. Gradually it makes a home for
itself out of lime, and in that it lives
till 1t dies. Then the next coral ami
NAL comes along and builds its lime
shell on top Of the old one, and so on.
After thousands of years billions of
these creatures will have made huge
mass Of lime, which may come above
the surface Of the sea and make a
coral island. The Great Barrier Reef,
off Australia, Is hundreds of miles
long, yet every inch of 1t was made
by these tiny creatures.

Bills Introduced
With practically third of the ses-
sion behind them the members of the
legislature were faced with a num-
Der of important and controversial
measures, several of which were pre-
sented Tuesday night.
Reassembling for the fifth week of
the session the members poured a
total of 25 bills into the Legislative
hoppers in short sessions.
Among the most important were:
A uniform narcotic law designed to

listing and fit in with federal regu-
lations.
Putting the educational require
ments of nurses under state super

up against it.
The attorneys measure allowing
the appellate court to set the require
