He said that Mrs. Jackson had suggested to him that the state be named for the river of that name which runs through the state. It is an Indian name, meaning crooked spoon. —» 0 Sound of Bells The nature of the country has much to do with the sound of bells. In a hilly country a bell will not tie heard half so far as if the land were level or nearly so. Abel) will be heard farther lengthwise of a valley than over the hills at the sides. Where bellrooms are lower than the surrounding buildings and trees, these obstructions break the sound and prevent a free passage for a distance. 0 Varied Uses for Cactus The cactus is grown to be used as wood, for hedges and decorative purposes, in the manufacture of medicine, and as a vegetable and a fruit. Near San Fernando, Calif., there is a farm where cacti are raised for their apples alone. These are used for Jellies, preserves and for making candles. They have a meat which is sweet and pulpy *n nature and about 80 per cent water. o Before Advent of Matches Fire was known to the Indians of America before the advent of Colum bus. Primitive man created tire either by friction of wood In tbe tire drill, fire plow and tire saw, or by percussion of minerals, principally the flint and pyrites. 0 New Kind of Leaf Larry and Dorothy were playing out in the ward, when a feather came fluttering acrors the grass. Dorothy saw it and picking It up ran to her mother and said: "Oh, mamma, look! I found a leaf of a chicken." I *
