AUTOMOBILE HERE TO STAY

Foolish to Compare It to Popular “Crazes” That Merely Bloomed : for a Time.

“If the automobile craze continues,” queried 8 Man Who Loves to Talk, “what will we do for roads for the cars to run on? Just now all the main roads- around the city are used to capacity on nice Sundays, and it is common knowledge that down-town streets are so jammed at times that a man can walk on the sidewalk faster than a car can travel in the street. Shall we have to double-deck our streets?” o ;

“Possibly,” replied the Man Who Remembers. “But the use of automobiles is not a craze. It is too enduring for a craze. The roller-skating epidemic that swept the country in the middle eighties was a craze. Rem2mber how rinks sprang up in every town? Bicycle riding ten years later was a craze. The Willlamsburgh bridge was built while it was at its height, and plans for.the bridge called for a space devoted exclusively to bikes, but the craze passed before the bridge was completed. ; “Ping-pong was a craze that bloomed in the morning and died at might, though while it lasted - there were ping-pong clubs, tournaments ard contests. But baseball, politics and the motorcar are not crazes. They are institutions.”—New York Sun. o

CHANGES IN ARCTIC OCEAN Seals Said to Be Finding Temperature a Little Too High, and lce Is : Less Plentiful. v _The Arctic ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarce and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according te a report to the Commerce department from Consul Ifft at Bergen. ‘Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climatic conditions and hitherto unheard of temperatures in the Arctic zoné€, exploration expeditions reporting that scarcely any ice has been encountered as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the Gulf stream still warm. : ‘ 5 Great masses of ice have been § placed by moraines of earth and stones, while at many points wellknown glaciers have disappeared. Yery few seals and no white fish are being found in the eastern Arctie, while vast sheals of herring and smelts, which never before have ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal-fishing grounds.

Ingenious, but Futile Plea, © When a robbery is not a robbery, was told a judge of General Sessions in New York, when & negro was charged with entering a house and taking a $3,500 diamond ring. *“Did you?”’ asked the judge. '“Jedge,” said the prisoner, “It wasn’t mo burglary. It was summer time and the windows was open. The windows was open an’ I went in and this yere lady woke up —terrible scairt. An’ she put up huh. hand to hxh haid and somethin’ spahkled. Oh, Jedge, if it on’y hadn’t spahkled! An’ I said: °‘Lady, whut you got thaih on yoh hand? An’ she said: ‘Take it, an’ please do go ra’t out immediate.’ Jedge, the lady requested me to take that spahkler an’ go ra’t out im-mee-dee-ate. An’' I took it and went. Jedge, it wasn’t no burglary,” It seemed that the prisoner had undergone a similar painful experience at another apartment not totspeak of a record of four previous convictions.

Ancestors Worth Boasting About. For about an hour a man from Denver had been boasting to an Irishman about the magnificence of the Rocky mountains, . o “You seem mighty proud ov thim mountains,” the Irishman observed. “You bet I am,” replied the man from Denver. “And I ought to be, since my ancestors built them.” The Irishman thought this over for a few moments and then asked, “Did you ever happen to hear ov the Dead sea in—in one ov the old countries?”’ ' “Yes, indeed,” replied the man from Denver. “I know all about the Dead sea.” ; .“Well, did you happen to know that me great-grandfather killed the thing ?”—London Tit-Bits. :

‘Felt His Job Was Bafe. A newspaper that was not making expenses decided to economize, and accordingly two reporters and a spe: cial writer were dismissed.

He worked in what was known as the art department, for the journal published a great many pictures. Asked if he had had no qualms as to the stability of his job, he sai@® *Oh, no. They can’t fire me.” “Why not? They are cutting all along the line.” “Waal, I figure that the paper can’t’ afford to make a cut in its art department.

AIRPLANES TO LOCATE LAKES

Plan- to_Use Flying Machines in the Finding and Photographing of Alaskan Inland Waters.

Locating and photographing undiscovered lakes in the national forests of Alaska are the latest uses to which the airplane has been put, says American Forestry, quoting the United States forest service. We read: “It has long been known that there are many lakes on the headlands and islands traversed by the inside passage between Seattle and Skagway that do not appear on any map. During the New York-Nome flight made by army aviators, lakes were frequently sighted which eould not be found on the latest and most authentic maps of the territory. Tales of unknown water bodies are constantly being brought in by trappers and prospectors. Less than a year ago a lake four and onehalf miles long and one-half mile wide was discovered at the head of Short bay. This lake has over 1,000 acres of surface area and is less than one and one-quarter miles from tidewater, yet because of the surrounding territory’s rough topography has remained unknown and unnamed. Recognizing that many others of these ‘lost lakes’ may be sources of 'valuable . water power, the forest service has laid plans to map this no man’s land ef the North by means of aerial photographs. A few day's flight, it is said will be sufficlent to cover the area with a degree of accuracy that would require many years and great expense to accomplish by ordinary methods. The work, which has been approved by the federal power commission; will be done by seaplane, flying from Ketchikan as a base.”

WOODEN SHIPS HAVE “KNEES” ‘Right Angle Timber Brace, Important Part of Vessel, Namea for Human Leg Joint. In these days when flapper slang juggles with sayings like ‘“the ‘cat’s pajamas” and “the bee’'s knees,” how many boys and girls: know anything about ships’' knees. . Ships’ knees; however, are a fact and not & fancy. This s an exceedingly important item in the construction of a wooden ship. A ship knee is'\a right-angled wooden brace used to give strength to the framing, and: is fashioned from the natural crook of a tree formed by a heavy, shallow horizontal root and a section of the trunk. Knees when finished are sometimes as much as six or seven feet high and many times are four feet high. ' ~ The tremendous impetus to wooden shipbuilding brought about by the war has resulted in the establishment of a sawmill at Portland, Ore., designed exclusively for the finishing of ship knees. The timber preferred is secondgrowth Douglas fir, found growing in shallow soil, so that the roots turn off at right angles to the trunk and thus give the proper shape. The standardized wooden ship requires some two hundred knees of all sizes, while another type of wooden ship, also under construction, requires more than 160 knees.—American Forestry. _

Tepography of the Air. Explorations of the air have revealed an astonishing definiteness of arrangement in its layers, although, of course, the details are continually changing. Ley, In England, has directed his studies of floating balloons to a solution of the question of the influence of the topography of the earth’'s surface on *he state of the air above it. He finds, among other things, that the disturbances produced by hills and valleys are transmitted to an unexpectedly great elevation, affecting the lower and middle strata throughout. A general effect noticed is that the velocity of the wind, or of a current of air, is increased over a hill and diminished over a valley. It is thought that similar observations, generally distributed, would provide & real topography of the air,

Big-Game Hunters. The Woman has recently received a letter from the staff artist of the Beebe tropical research expedition. Hitherto they have had the jungle mere or less to themselves and have had most excellent chances to study and explore. g ' But now it is not so.. Since the recent diamond mine boom the rush of prospectors to the diamond fields has been tremendous, and those who thought the jungle would belong exclusively to them and to the wild creatures who made their homes there will now come home sooner than. planned. It seems that no place can remain a. wilderness or a jungle if the thought of wealth can be connected with it.— Exchange, . : Gy

~ Cattle Wearing Halter. ‘A Frenchman has inveénted a halterlike arrangement which he puts on the head of young cattle, so that they may be weaned without having to separate them from the rest of the herd, -and with Itttle trouble to the farmer.

Really Useful Umbrella. . It was a French inventor, with a tender heart for bicyclists, chauffeurs, fishermen and wandering artists, whe contrived a form of umbrella for protection against sun or rain, which can be easily and solidly attached to the shoulders so as to leave the arms and hands absolutely free. When not in use it folds up in a conveniently portable form. , i w 2 % s NS B. F.
