Nothing yet explains the Intelligence of an aut; or of a man. Common sense is the gift of heaven; enough of it is genius. Study your good intentions ns carefully as your hud ones. Our best friends are apt to appear bad in amateur theatricals. Knowledge is something given away about as freely as advice. Fountain of youth is found by Ignoring everything one likes. In the bright lexicon of life the future tense of ‘‘due” is “dun." Too many men are never satisfied with wasting their own time. Why pick out for your friend a man whose dog won’t follow him? The higher a man rises the more he needs others to hold him up. f - Mere flashes of genius make the darkness denser subsequenlly. In pursuing happiness for other people, be sure they so regard it.
When a woman pretends to be norant she le playing u deep game.
1 if-
fy hy does a man always lose his nerve Just when he needs it most? Don’t think for a minute that all ministers preach what they practice. More men have been ruined by schemes than by had companionship. A great deal of peace of mind comes from letting an old habit have its way. There is no remedy for the high cost of living except the low cost of sav-
ing.
The effect of a tnulp’s kick does not depend upon the scantiness of his brain. Think over the acts of your life carefully before you ask for exact justice. About the time a man begins to lay up something for a rainy day, it begins to rain. The sun always makes rainbows through the clouds of grief if we look toward it. Probably the greatest invention of the age is a woman’s method of concealing it. Oh, what a tangled web we weave when we lead a dog at the end of a long leash. A man employs the time you make him wait in summing up your faults; so^don’t be lute. A soft answer turneth away wrath, and hard coal instead of soft turneth away a lot more. Good men can more easily understand bad men than hud men can understand good men. Never was there a great Napoleon of business who could tell the public how it was carried on. Nobody seems to have thought of interviewing Sauk Center on what it thinks of “Main Street." It might he well, while correcting our disobedient offspring, to remember that we did not die young. Don’t fail to lay up ^something for the rainy day, if it’s nothing more than the borrowed umbrella.

Dozen Groups of Men Headed by Experta, Equipped With Latest Machinery, Being Organized for Service In Soviet Russia—Most of the Workers Are Russian Immigrants Who Have Become Skilled in Their Several Lines in the United States. More than a dn/.en groups of workmen trained In American Industries, beaded by experts and fully equipped with the latest machinery, are preparing to leave- soon to aid in the Industrial rehabilitation of soviet Russia. The Society for Technical Aid to Soviet Russia, which is organizing these units, announced that it already j has sent to Russia clothing workers, machinists, builders, and tool and die workers. Most of these workers were Russian immigrants who had skilled here. The society, an organization of Russians, has its central bureau in New York, headed by Fedor P. Wilga. It claims a membership of lO.tKX) throughout the United States and Canada and publishes a semi-monthly technical magazine to acquaint its members with modern methods of production in America and their application in soviet Rus-
sia.
Not Soviet Agents. Officials of the society claim that the aim of their organization is to "bring the people of the United States and soviet Russia into closer relations for the mutual benefit of the two countries." The society denied it was acting ns agents for soviet Russia and declared that Its activities were absolutely nonpolitical and confined strictly to organizing technical forces. “We are not soliciting members, nor do we encourage them to go to soviet Russia at present.” said a statement issued hy the society. “Only those brave and energetic workers who, regardless of conditions at present existing in sovid? Russia, are willing and ready to go there its soon as possible to help build the Russian republic are accepted as members of units that we are organizing to be sent to soviet Russia. Send Trained Men. “We are organizing our units in such a way that upon their arrival in soviet Russia they will lie able to run on tlteir own initiative, under their own supervision, all kinds of factories, shops, mines and farms." The society said that the following units, fully equipped with the latest machinery, will leave in the near future for Russia: Two units of shoemaking workers, two units of clothing workers, three units of construction workers, one unit of foundry workers of chilled cast-iron wheels for railway cars and locomotives, several groups of electrical and acetylene welders, automobile and tractor units, five agricultural groups fully equipped with tractors and all modern power machinery and several others. “Ail of these units sent to Russia, being disseminated In various parts of that vast country," said the society, "will serve ns piolieers for American
GIVE INFANT A “SEASONING"’ Newly Born Greek Baby Invariably Sprinkled With Salt and Pepper by Its Father. What would you think if you were a Greek baby boy, born in one of the small villages or on a farm, and the first thing your daddy did to you was to sprinkle you with salt and pepper? questions Temple Manning In the Cleveland Plain Dealer. You wouldn’t like It, would you? And yet tins is exactly what is done to the boy Malnote, perhaps with the idea of giving him a foretaste of the hard life of that rocky section. When the baby is bofti with hair on bis head, the priest—who is always present at such events in the homes of the faithful—cuts off a Tew hairs' He joins these hairs with the wax from an altar tajier, then he throws them into the water in which the child is to be baptised. After the baby’s baptism the priest puts an amulet around his neck to guard him throughout life, and the child may be said to be launched on his career. No less odd are the customs In other sections of Greece. For instance, In Athens, no matter how rich the family may be—so long as they cling to the old customs—the first clothing the baby wears is made from an old shirt his father wore. Interesting as are the baptismal ••us- ' toms of Greece—and beautifully symbolic ns they are—they are somewhat like our own baptismal rites. But what is very different, is that from its baptism the baby has a name. Until his or her bapitsm, the child has been called “Slderos." This means “iron,” and the baby is so called because Ids parents hope that he or she will be as strong as Iron. From now until he is three years old, the hoy child—when not called by Ids own name—is referred to as “baby.” He must be twelve years old before he is called "youth," and attain the age of eighteen before anyone thinks of speaking of him as “young man.” But the proudest moment of all comes with his twentysecond birthday. On that day he is first spoken of as “full-grown man." And the chances are he by now reI alizes why Ids father sprinkled him with salt and pepper the day he was born.
MIGHT HAVE PUT IT BETTER Evidently Mr. Pea Was Not Deeply Versed in the Gentle Art of Diplomacy. Secretary Conrad Jenny of the Swiss embassy at a dinner was talking about diplomacy. “A good many diplomats,” he said, “are about as diplomatic as old Mr. Pen. “Mr. Pea was a village character who stuttered. There was a political meeting in the village one evening, and among the speakers was a certain Cue. “Well, at the end of the meeting there was a kind of a reception, and Cue, the most important orator of the occasion, was Introduced to the stuttering old villager. “Mr. Pea shook the orator’s hand and stuttered: “ ‘Glad to m-meet you. Diet's see, you were one of the s peakers, weren’t you ?’ "‘Yes, 1 was,’ said Cue. “ 'W-well, say,’ said old Pea, ‘w-wasu’t them other f-fellers good?’”

INVENTS “WEIGHT MOTOR’
Illinois Man Perfects Machine That Perils Present Motive Power. Gasoline and waterpower would largely follow the horse Into decline as incans of motive power, If ttie invention of a Springfield (111.) man, A. T. Markwood, contains all the qualities lie claims for it. First actual test of his "weight motor" has been set for this month, when a commissioner from the United States patent office comes here, he reports. Weight of iron balls supplies the force in the Invention, upon which Mr. Markwood says he has worked twenty-five years. . Sixteen halls of 138 pounds each equip the model he lias prepared for the demonstration. Two of these units, he claims, would suttice to provide all the electricity produced by the Springfield (III.) Electric company's light and power plant. The idea finds similarity In the overshot water-wheel. Iron balls replace the water fall, forcing around huge iron spokes. Sufficient energy Is generated by the fall of one hull to lift several spent balls back to the elevated truck, and tints the motor continues, he says. Eventually, Mr. Markwood declares, there will he small replicas of his huge model in many homes. Small Iron halls, the size of a croquet hall, will equip a generator the size of a phonograph, and tiie electricity therefrom will light houses, run washing machines, provide heat, and recharge the family automobile, he prophesies Motor Cars Cut CHucbgomg in Half. t'hurch attendance is being cut 30 per cent, the crime rale is being rair.eii and many narrow streets made dcn‘1 traps hy automobiles, according t> John F.
