HIGH SPOTS. - . That the democrats of Allen county are courageous and optimistic is shown by a rally ef the party members held in Fort Wayne last Monday syvening at which both men and women, in spite of the late crushing defeat at the polls- look to the future with hope and expectation. ‘The party will be back fighting a fierce battle with the opposition in four years and for-the success of congressional and state candidates in two years. U. S. Attorney General Sargent held invalid a contract for sale of royalty government oil from the Cat Creek field in Montana, in an opinion made public by the interior .department. .

The contract was held by the Lewis town oil and Refining company, a sub sidiary of the Century Oil company of Detroit, Mich. It was voided by Sargent on the ground it contained a gecret renewal clause which was not mentioned in advertisement for bids. Those oil irregularities which have causcd sa much scandal and grief are lap-overs from the Harding adminisfration, involving Daugherty and Fall. | On: may imagine the feeling of 350 passengers of the liner Vestris when they took to the life boats after the vessel sank 300 miles off the Virginia coast.

Preparedness was declared the most effective medium for bringing about universal and permanent peace by Perry Faulkner of Montpelier, O, the Indiana department of the American Legion, as the principgl speaker at the Armistice’ day ceremony conducted by Fort Wayne post No. 47 Sunday morning at the Catholic Community center, .

Mr. Faulkner opened his talk by asserting that the American Legion is the best qualified spokesman in the intercst of an organized national defense program. He complimented Allen county for justifying its rich historical background by making such a fitfing observance of Armisticeé day and declared the county should be proud of its legion post. Mr. Faulkner said.in part: : ; “We did not enter the war to evenge the rape of Belgium, to pay a debt of gratitude to Frante or to foil the autocratic pretenses' of the German empire, We did not enter the war because of any of these reasons despite the fine mouth-filling expres; sions of "the press and pulpit. We went to war to preserve ideals and institutions which we hold dear to our hearts.

“After three years of neutrality, we realized that these institutions of which we are so proud, were in danr so we went to war to preserve ﬁem. By the declarations of our great war time president, we gave point and purpose to what had been a muddle. There is little need of going back over all the ground of what happened, What we must do now is

Rare Book Secured by | Library of Congress

' Omne of the rarest of books on gclence, the first edition of Sir Isaac Newton’s “Principia,” was obtained by the Library of Congress, after years ot search. Though only an inch and # half thick and ten inches high by seven and a half inches wide, with 510 pages, it has been termed “the mmost important printed work on exact sciencé ever published.” It was published in 1687 in London, and in it Newton first gave to® the world the {‘esults of his fundamental - study of the laws of gravitation. Two issues of the first edition were made in the vear of its publication, one being intended for sale in England, and tho pther on the Continent. The Library of Congress copy is of the first issue. lowever, the entire edition was small and it is related by contemporary writers that as early as 1691 it was véry difficult to obtain. At present it is almost completely unprocurable. The library’s copy was bought for \Watson Davis, managing editor ot Heience Service, but upon learning of the library's desire for a copy, he relinquished it. The full title of the book, in Latin, is “Philosophie Naturalis Principia Mathematica.” An irteresting feature of the title page is that it bears the imprimatur, or approval, of Samuel Pepys, famous for lis diary, who was at that time president of the Royal society.

No Woid or Deed but ' ~ Leaves an Impressicn Kelvin, the great scientist, once told his students, as he put a piece of chalk on a certain mountainy’ that ft strained the ‘whole globe. “T¥ there were instruments delicate enough, its effect might be measured in the most remote place., That is how science speaks of the “influence” of a bit of chalk. That there ' nre no instruments delicate. enough to measure the influence, does not make it any the less real or farreaching. ' A bit of chalk, a child's football, even a ULivd's alichting, Is felt right through tii eartli. Minute influences are set goines, to which in a real sense is neither measure nor end. : It is never tiue to say in such a world that thives don’t count or don’t matter.

Minute Eyes

The structure and function of eyes so small that 3,000 would not fill the space occupied by a pinhead have been ascertained after years of study by Dr. S. O. Mast, professor of zo ology at the Johns Hopkins univerSity,

They are the eyes of the volvox, minute greenish.organism which flourishes near the surface of still water and is of particular interest to science as one of the simplest forms of life. Each cell in a volvox, numbering from 200 to 2,200, is equipped with onge of them ranging from .001 to .003 millimeters in diameter and working independently toward a common objective, S _

Then He Remembered

A celebrated composer, who had written a very successful “Romeo and Juliet” opera, was paying his first visit to Stratford-on-Avon and being shown the memorials. :

Suddenly he interrupted his friend’s description of an Old-world cottage. “Shakespeare?”’ he queried. “Who was SkLakespcare?” The other was flabbergasted. . “My stars!” he exclaimed. “Didn’t you. set his “Romeo "~ and Juliet” to music. B

“Oh-h! Now I remember,” replied the composer. “The librettist, en?”

Always the Improvident

The races and nations of mankind are not and never have been equally intelligent and resourceful in devising and adopting those Institutions and customs which enable the populations in some measure to avoid widespread poverty. There are parts of the world whose peoples are improvident and irresponsible, and the pressure of want against their ineffectual resistance is a danger to the defenses of those peoples that have for the time successfully repelled the common enemy.—T, N, Carver in “This Economic World.”

“Where did you. buy that miracle hat?” - . : :

“I'm sorry, but I don’t think I know what hat you are referring to.” “Well, yesterday you had a new hat on and I understand some one was calling it a miracle hat.”

* *“1 remember some one telling me how well it becomes me, but I can't seem to recall anyone calling it a miracle hat.” “Indirectly some one did. If a hat can become’ a girl I certainly would call it a. miracle hat.”

Loom Has Played Big : Part in Civilization . The Chinese claim that silk weaving ‘was practiced in China in 2500 B. C, ‘and the art of weaving was certainly ‘known to the Egyptians at a still ‘earlier period. Some scholars belleve ‘that weaving was invented in Egypt, .but in all probablity it was invented “In at least four different places—by a ,primitive white man, a primitive ryellow man, a primitive red man, fand a primitive black man. The _earliest attempts at weaving were simply the plaiting of grass blades, reeds or rushes, done by hand without the afd of a loom. With the ‘fnvention of the loom—even of the simplest kind, such as Is still used among American Indlan tribes of the Southwest—great -strides were made in the art of weaving. Our great grandmothers used the hand and treadle loom. The same was in general use until Doctor Cartwright, an Englishman of whom it was said that he had -never seen a loom in his life, invented the power loom in 1787. Since his day the loom has been altered and improved until it has now come to a high state of perfection.

Altogzther Too Many Tenors on “Pay Roll”

‘An actor tells this one: *“A good many years ago,” he says, “a theatrical troupe Jeft Chicago with Jjust about enough money to reach the first stand on their route. After several nights’ bad business they found themselves: gotting deeper in the hole and, being unable to pay the hotel bill, they took the- landlord along with them, promising to settle when business picked up. ; .

The company’s manager discovered that the landlord sang tenor, and, being short of ‘tenors, they had him Sigg-} ing in the chorus after a few days. Business still continued to be poor, and at the second stand they had to take that landlord along, too. He also sang tenor and was given a job in the chorus. The situntion remained the same, and they were soon carrying eight landlords who sang tenor. Finally the manager became discouraged and wired his advance agent, ‘Get a rate at a hotel where the landlord sings bass.' "—Washington Star.

Batik Process

Batik is the name applied to the wax-dyed fabrics that bave lately become popular i? America. Wax dyeing is a procesd of dyeing fabrics by hand after a pattern is formed by covering a';'b‘nrt of the cloth with wax so that it resists the action of the dye. I'or example, take for your pattern a yvellow butterfly sitting on a green lenf. Use yellow cloth and with a paint brush dippbd in hot beeswax draw 'the\pmterﬂy and cover it with wax. Dip in green dye. The wax covering the butterfly will resist the action of the dye. After the fabric is dry draw the leaf and cover with het wax. Dip the fabric in a dye that you wish for your background. Neither leaf nor butterfly will take the color. Wthen dry wash in gasoline to remove wax and the proeess is coilplete,

Considerate of Mother

. Bobhie had just been eleaned up for ‘the afternoon. As it was raining his mother told him not to go off the porch and get his feet wet. Some time later she missed him. and geing ‘to. the door she called. A neighbor answered saying DBobbie was at her house. "'and she would like to have him “stay. Bobbie’s mother explained ‘that he was not to leave the peorch, ‘and so he must come home at once. ,A minute later in came Bobbie with :ga stick ‘in his hand.:

“Here, mother,” called Bobbie, “l 1 brought you this stick so you wouldn’t have to go off the porch and get your feet wet.” . . :

Easy to Remember

In one of the large downtown stores a clerk was telling a customer from where he had come. “Briefly,” he said with a delighiful accent, “I come from Cork, but to be more specific I come from Farrandahadoremore, whieh is a little smaller than Farranadahadoremore, which is a little smaller than ‘Tarrandahadorberg. My father came from the 'village, or suburb of Gurteenaspigmore, which 1s larger than Gurteenaspigbeg.” In Ireland there are a great many places with names a good deal bigger than they are.—Detrolt News. :

Hopeless

- It was during the dollar day rush that little Perry was separated from his mother and before long his sobs ;made him the center of an interested icrowd.. A number of the women tried to console him, and told him that his mother was close by, but the little fellow ‘would not believe it. Finally he blubbered: “I look an’ I look, an’ I cry an’ ;I listen, an’ not one of you has my ‘muvver’s face.” ; 5

Not Mated

+ Billy was very much excited over ‘the arrival of a new baby brother and spread the news all over the neighborhood.

“Does he look like you?” asked the corner groceryman, trying to be sociable with one of his best penny customers. :

Billy thought it over for a few moments and then replied seriously: “Oh no, he is a much deeper shade than 1 am.” ? 2
