WHEN SIMS GOT IN WRONG

Capitol Barber on Record as Making Bad Break to the Then Sen- - ator Harding. '

The odds are 200 to 2 that the senators will say that Sims is the most populat barber in the senate barber shop. Sims has the cream of. the senate trade and he has been in the senate barber shop lomger than any--one knows. He has become expert not only on shaving and cutting hair and massaging, but en political matters as well. L el When President Harding was still a member of the senate he came in for Sims to do a little face work on him. Sims began shortly after the then senator took the chair, to talk about the dire effect on the senate of the Constitutional amendment previding for direct election of its members. . n “Why, this direct election is sure a bad thing,” said Sims in Mr. Harding’s ear. “Why, the men who are here can’t be compared with the men who were here 20 years ago.” Just about this time it dawned on Sims what he was saying and to whom he was saying it. . ' ~ Probably his censeience was stirred by the fact that Mr. Harding's face was getting redder and redder as® he tried to suppress his laughter. “Oh, 'indeed, senator,” said the stricken Sims. “I was speakin’ genully. I didn’t mean nothing pussunal about it.”—Los Angeles Times. ;

SIMPLE MATTER OF REASON

How Water Has Traveled From Versallles to Columbia, Mo., in Last . Three Centuries.

An old Indian was sitting by & camp fire near the present site of|Versailles, Mo., back in July, 1608. He was telling a story about Louls D. Moscoso, successor to De Soto, who explored the southwestern part of Missouri in 1542, “Sure, Mike,” he said. “These hombres are white, have short hair, carry—” But his sentence wass never finished. About that time it began to rain and the council adjourned to the shelter, It is now 312 years since that time, but the water from that very rain we are just now getting here in Columbia for drinking purposes. Don’t you believe it? Well, here is the way they find such things out. During thé war the army made some tests of how fast water moves undeér the ground. This was done by digging two wells, placing some chemicals in one to drscolor the water and then waiting to see how long before the discoloration became apparent in the water of the second well.. The layer of sand from which Columbia secures Its water is a medium sand, neither coarse nor fine, and it was found that water moved 845 feet & year in such sand. The layer of sand eutcrops at Versailles, which is approximately fifty miles from here, Figure it out.—Columbia Missourian. ,

Sir Dennison Ross, director of the London school of oriental studies, in an exhortation to his countrymen to learn Japanese, says that this is one of the easiest languages of the world to pronounce. ‘“Most of the words end tn vowels and none of the consonants offer any difficulties.” The structure of Japanese is very peculiar and very strange to the beginner. It is hard to realize a grammar which recognizes no persons and genders—but such ‘is the case with the Japanese. The language also has no relative pronouns. However, there i 8 no reason why people whose mother tongue is English should fight shy of the language. For practical, everyday purposes, six months’ study of the spoken tongue will carry an intelligent man a long way provided he has competent teachers. ot

Defective Vision in Children.

Last year 141,000 cases of defectlve vision among the school children .of New York state were reported, according to Dr. William A. Howe of the state education .depariment. A large percentage of the defects of vision are errors of refraction traced directly to poor lighting conditions, he says. Quantity of light is one of the most difficult problems of school lighting. While offices and factories are employing increasingly high intensities of illumination, schools can be found with very low lillumination. The subject has ‘added importance by reason of the fact ‘that night schoéols are conducted in a number of school buildings. Two thou‘sand rooms in the schools of New York city alone are used for that purpose, : ' A Bird of a Story. Lieut. Chester Lewis of St. Clairsville, Ohlo, executive officer on the United States ship Paducah, is responsible for the following: While the Paducah was at the Isle of Pines one 6f the bluejackets captured a peacock, Which was placed aboard when they started north, The peacock took to roosting on the radio shack and now i{s minus the one part of its decorations for which a peacock I 8 noted——its tail. One night after the peacock had gone to roost, the radio operator turned on the ‘“juice” and started sending messages. ‘ - The beautiful tail of the peacock was in line with the sparks and the feath: ers caught fire, considerable of the tail. being burned off. However, the fire, according to Lewis, was discovered and part of the Atlantic ocean was used in extinguishing the blaze, - | 5 A ————— 3 - The Missing Factor, - ~ “What has become of cubist art?” It lacked the true essential of sueSOWhet fmthaerr. . o L - “Splesmanship”
