The Volunteer Training Camps Attention is called to the fact that military training camps for citizens will be opened at Camp Knox, Ky., July 21 to Aug. 30. The quota for Wayne county will be proportional to the population of the county, and will be announced within a fewtlays. It is pointed out that these camps will afford excellent vacations for the men accepted. Although there is to be military training, the camp will be conducted on lines similar to the Camp at Plattsburg, in New York, before the war. Since there will be men and boys of all ages in the camp it has been decided to segregate the men into groups of like ages. "This country must be prepared for emergencies such as we faced in the last year," says Hilton U. Brown, a leading civic worker in Indianapolis and a father of three boys who saw service overseas in the World war. "Although Ave may never have another war," says Mr. Brown, "the training received in 30 days in one of these camps will be invaluable to the younger
Good Evening WHAT DON'T YOU KNOW? That sometimes the highbrow may conceal a cavity beneath is one of the revelations ot the Edison trick questions. Educators, citizens and reporters, supposedly above the average In information, are revealed as lacking, and even the use of encyclopedias and other reference books fails in some instances. For Instance, in the list, of questions and answers printed there were numerous errors. Here are some of them: Korea is said to be north of China, when literally it is east. It is nearer north of Japan. G. Of what kind of wood are axe handles made? A. Ash. From time immemorial hickory has been deemed the only wood tough enough for axe and hammer handles. During the war ash was used as a substitute when the contractors could get away with it People who don't know might accept an ash handled axe. but no mechanic or woodsman would. Q. Of what is glass made? A. Sand melted with lime. That might do for a very poor quality of glass, with a few additions, but ordinary glass is made from silica contained in a ?perial kind of saad and a potash compound, with other substances to color, toughen or otherwise affect the product. Q. What is a caisson. A. In engineering, water tight chamber used in submarine construction. The Wool-i north building foundations were pur j down by the use of caissons, because) water was encountered. It was not ! submarine work, however. j Q. What two rivers converge at Pittsburgh? A. Ohio and Allegheny. The last time the writer was there the Monongabela and Allegheny converged to form the Ohio. Guess they are there yet. , Q. What is sago? A. Indian ric a dry granulated starch from the East Indies. When the writer went to school he was taught that sago was made from the pith of the sago palm, and a few other growths having a like nature. What don't you know? Pennsylvania professor says American literature is declining. Ferhaps lie has been getting rejection slips lately. There are some mutts in this world who are- too bashful even to meet their obligations. G. T. a.ks: "if a bathing beauty ever went into the water what would become of her make-up?"

generation. Whenever employers find that their men going to the camp need pocket money, it is hoped that it will be advanced. The government will pay all other expenses." Congress has made provision for nine of these camps, one in each of the nine corps areas which compose the present military divisions of the United States. Each camp will last a month, during which expert soldiers will give the volunteer recruits instruction in the essentials of military life. The term is too short to pretend to do more than lay an intelligent foundation, but the experience will be worth any young man's having. There will be practical military instruction and demonstrations by trained regular troops to elucidate the problems which the recruits cannot be made ready to try for themselves. There will be much attention to health, sanitation, and a proper provision for athletics and entertainment. When the month is over the volunteer will go
back with harder
conception of what it means to be a soldier of the great republic. The camps will be schools of high minded citizenship, schools of service and American manhood. They will prepare a few at least of our youth to lead if the misfortune of war and the duty of defense comes to us again. They will recruit for the guard and the reserve. They will send back into civilian life missionaries to preach with knowledge and enthusiasm the benefits of the moral, mental, and physical training which comes in the education of the citizen soldier.
Two Minutes of Optimism By HERMAN J. STICH
THE FAILURE'S EPITAPH "Time is money," said Benjamin Franklin, and a French statistician has been dabbling with our temporal wealth to find out just what most of us do with it. His facts and figures show that the "average" man of fifty has slept 56S6 days, worked 6134, walked 750, amused himself 3792, eaten for 1423 days and been ill 475. Analyzing his figures, it is apparent that they conform roughly to the old injunction that a man should sleep eight hours, work eight hours and play eight hours although in the figures mentioned, sleep has been slighted somevhat in favor of pleasure. These figures, of course, show only how the "average" man spends his time. If figures were available indicating what the "beyond-the-average" man does as the clock's hands go round, there can be no question but they would show that both sleep and pleasure are ruthlessly sacrificed in favor of work, in order to accomplish worthwhile ambitions, attain position and pelf, and generally to do big things in a big way. Most of us are always complaining that our days are few, and acting as though there were no end of them. The "average" man does not know the value of time the "beyond-the-avcrage" man does. And the latter thinks, plans and works; while the former is getting ready to commence to begin, and idleness and the chase after amusement cause the moments to slip past out of his reach forever, out into the great ocean of yesterday. Napoleon used to say: "You may ask anything of me but time," and it will bear repeating that the reason he beat the Austrians was because he appreciated the importance of five minutes. "Time is money," Benjamin Franklin said; he was only partly right. Time is not money unless you turn it into money. Most men are poor because they are time-poor they squander the seconds of which success is the sum they kill the present, unknowing or unheeding that in it lives their future, which is the total of life's nows. Time is something practically none of us can afford to waste unless we are prepared to want. Every moment is a precious drop freighted with destiny life s most meaningful words are these: "Now is the accepted time." If the true epitaph of most failures were written, it would probably read: "Here lies a might-have-been. He killed Time. Therefore, he throttled his chances to succeed."

TODAY'S TALK By Georga Matthew Adama, Author of "You Can," -Take IV "Up" ' TO BE STRONG! Among the earliest aspirations of the child is to walk to stand by its own strength. Of the boy. it is to "6how his muscle." Of the man. to lead through sheer force of mind within a personality trained to dominate. To be strong this hat been the conscious and unconscious dream that has permeated the thought of human life all through the ages. It is the natural desire of a man. Not physical strength alone but added to this, that strength of mind and heart without which no physical man is strong. For each, in its turn, backs and supports the other. You can have no higher ambition than to be strong. For the strong character is the tortressed character. Its greatest foe is itself. It will face outside fear. And it will not flinch in the midst of disaster. But upon itself because it is strong it must keep an hourly watch. How shall you get to be strong? By wanting to be strong! So every human being, to a very large degree, hold3 the fate of himself fully in his own hands. Our wills must be fashioned to serve And there must be no dissipation of the delicate and intricate cells that make up the marvelous structure of our brains. Emerson says that the strongest man on earth is the man who stands. most alone. The strength of the strong is largely a contributed strength. But once acquired, it 's welded to the very fibre of a man's being. Lowell says that every day we "Sinais climb and know u not." It is that way that we keep getting stronger. We go through the task that seems impossible and then si! tb'ngs look possible. The strong man gets impatient in the midst of foolish objections. "There shall be no Alps," cried Napoleon to his soldiers. I have known many strong men. But the strongest thing about the strongest. I have noticed, has always been their gentleness and human-ness.
Answers to Questions V I H(-?p What causes salt in the ocean,? The best sunported modern theory is th.it the ocean has been salt from the very beginnig of time. The old idea has been that the suit in the sea was not there originally, but was brought to it. little by little, throughout the ages, by rivers which washed it out of the land. In the process of evaporation the moi&ture was drawn up, leaving the salt behind and thus gradually concentrating it in ihe ocean. Howover, the old idea i3 discredited by the fact that thfre s a great similarity betwetn the sa'ts iound in the ocean and those present in the gaseous matter ejected from the interior of the earth during a voleanio eruption, and the great difference between the salt of ocean water and that of inland salt lakes formed by the evaporation of river water. PuzzledWhen an electric lamp breaks it produces a sound like an explosion. As the lan'p is a vacuum I am puzzled to know why tlii-s sound Were it not a vacuum there would be r.o explosion. When nn ordinary lamp chimney breaks there is no such sound. We understand that the noise is made by the air rushing in to fill the vacuum. Pupil Please give me the decimal equivalent of an inch. Is there such a thing as an Edison star? The centimeter is equal to 0.?,S37th of an inch. This is the nearest decimal denomina MVSBAND AND WIFE BOTH SICK Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Corner, Shenandoah. Va... were botli ill. He writes: "Rheumatism and bladder trouble was our trouble. My wife had rheumatism in her arms so she could not use them. She has had no trouble since takingFoley Kidney Pills. I don't have to gret up at night so much since taking Foley Kidney Pills, nor have I a weak back." Backache, sore, swollen or stiff muscles or joints, tired languid feeling yield quickly to Foley Kidney Pills. A. G. l.uken and Co., ;26-::s Main St. Advertisement. ' i'.
