>u \< h WIDOW *riI>KKS IN e KANSAS MANY Y’EAKS MANHATTAN, Kan. (UP)—While the "black widow" spider has achieved a wide degree of ill-fame only recently, Dr. R. S. Smith, department of entomology of -Kansas state college here, says the insect has been more or less common in Kansas

many years.

The bite of the "black widow” or "hour glass” spider, as it is properly termed, rarely is fatal. Smith says, adding that he never heard of a victim who received prompt medical at-

tention dying.

Smith says the hour-glass spider is not aggressive and that few persons bitten by spiders are victims of this vanety. Bites of any spider should be treated with anticeptics, he says, ami in case severe pain develops a doctor should be called at once. Both the male and female hourglass spiders arc poisonous, and have

And more than 100 cities along the great waterway, which serves as a distribution artery for half the nation, are perking up economically and giving their riverfront docks a thorough rejuvenating. For several generations, Mark Twain's beloved liver has been unkinking itself, sending down disastrous floods one year, and possibly running virtually dry the next. It has worked havoc with the stern wheelers and other river transportation which need an even rivet channel to keep their steam boilers n operation. So, Uncle Sam sent his army engineers to find out exactly what the river needed. They agreed that concrete dams should be constructed, and as a result. 16 huge nine-foot channel dams are now in operation on the upper Mississippi. Before the Robert E. Lee or Kentucky Belle blow very many more landing whistles there will be 11 additional struc-

At Rock Island, 111., an $87,000,000 concrete barrier flings itself across the Mississippi to Davenport, la., in a diagonal line 1,277 feet wide. At j one end are twin locks, 110 feet wide, 1 and .'160 and 600 feet long, respec-

The construction of this dam is i I typical of the other projects up and i down the river where U. S. army on- j gineers are achieving new miracles'

It consists of 11 steel cylinders, each 109 feet long and 20 feet in diameter. mounted between the concrete piers like a row of gleaming tin cans. The tops of the piers contain electrically driven hoists which lift the
