Desk of Washingtorn’s ' - Sisier Is Home Again
After more than 140 years of wandering, the desk at which Betty Wush: ington Lewis, sister of George Washington, sat and penned the courteous epistles of Ler day has come back to her old home, Kenmore, Fredericksburg, Va. For more than a yeuar the women who have been struggling ta save Kenmore as one of the historic shrines in America, have been sending out literature, describing the purpose of the Kenmore association, to the various D. A. R. chapters, says the Detroit News. One of these appeals reached the regent of the Old Trails chapter in Minneapolls, Minn, who communicated with the reg[s}r:n‘ of the Washington-Lewis chapter at Fredericksburg, telling of the old desk, ' .
- After leaving Kenmore the mahogany desk first found a home with a son of Colonel Lewis at Marmion, one of the best-known of the colonial places in Virginia. Next it went to Alexandria, then to Washington, D. C,, from there passing to New York city. Finally it found a place among the possessions of Mrs. Maurice Ainsworth of Minneapolis, who kept it until she knew that it would be restored to its rightful surroundings. 15T
Digging Machine That : Uses Compressed Air
An unusual digging machine that eombines the processes of shoveling and loading is finding its way into hundreds of mining and construction Jobs. It is operated dnd driven entirely by compressed alr. The speed of the loading can be controlled so as to throw the material to the farther end of a long car, or merely to drop it into a short one. .
The mechanical shovel will dump its load Into the center of the car from any position, even extreme right or left, it is claimed. Compressed-air power is applied through direct-thrust cylinders. Three control levers successively crowd, dig and dump the shovel. ] The two middle cylinders, acting as one, which do the main digging, are provided with cataract oil escapement plunger pistons. This arrangement is declared to give a steady and controlled but fast movement, from the first of crowding to the last of dump: ing, permitting no buildihg up of pressure and consequent jumping, or throwing out of the load.——Popular ‘Mechanics Magazine. v ; .
New Mint Plant for America In Menthd citrata, a plant belongIng to the mint family, the- United States Department of Agriculture belleves it has Introduced ‘a new crop which, under suitable conditions, may bring an &creage return equal to that now obtained from other -cultivated mints. During the past year the crop was grown at Arlington farm, near Washington, on a scale large enough to give definite indications of its possibilities. The yield of oil from the plant when distilled was at the rate of 80 pounds to the acre. The oil itself is very fragrant and when fractionated ylelds 50 per cent of linalyl acetate, a compound extensively used by manufacturing perfumers.
Huge Output of Pig Iron
The output of pig iron in the United States In 1923 was nearly 40,000,000 tons, an amount that surpasses &ven the war-time production of 1916; yet the exports of steel and iron were much lower than they were in 1913, and the lowest in the history of the Industry In America if compared with the quantity produced. How long will it take American blast furnaces, keyed up to war-time Pitch, to supply the demands of home consumption? Or has home consumption so increased that it can keep this great industry going at ifs present gait?—Youth’s Companion. o 2
Plans Hothouse for Humans
Human hothouse plants will be more than a figure of speéech if a Chicago engineer can carry out a project that he is urging. He wants to build in some city a residential section perhaps half a mile square, put a glass roof over it and have one central heating plant for it. He promises to produce an Hawallan climate all the year round, roses in winter, no rain on wash days, and other alluring advantages. He thinks that the cost of the superstructure would be offset by the lower cost of building inside the enclosure and by the lessened expenditures for heat.—Youth’s Companion. ;
Clerk Sought to Please
Father, accompanied by his little flock, walked into a beach hotel and sought speech with the clerk. “Can you arrange for accommodations?”’ . :
“House very full, sir. Best we can give you is a telephone hooth.”
“Don’t spring ‘that old gag on me. My wife and two daughters can’t live in a telephone booth.” -
“Oh, ag to that, we can give you four booths and will also insert a paragraph in the soclety papers to the effect that you have engaged a suite.”
The Materialist
Old Sinner—Good meorning, parson‘, had only a small congregation last night, I bellieve. - T Young Clergyman—Small congregation, yes. But ah, the church was filled with angels and archangels. Old Sinner—Maybe, parson, maybe; but they never seem to notice the collection plate.—Boston Transcript. The label on your paper will tell you wher your subscription expired or will expire. ; »..
