HOW TO CATCH FAKE STOCK SALESMEN Some state bankers’ associations are distributing an Investor’s ques Uonnalre with the Idea of protecting purchasers of securities from fake atock salesmen. "Whenever yon are solicited to purchase stock or other securities, use this questionnaire before investing any of your funds.” says one of these, questionnaire #a* compiled to protect the small investor and to emphasize the necessity of investigating thor 1 oughly every investment proposition before placing any money therein. When you have been furnished with the information called for In this questionnaire, take it to any one of the banking Institutions in your community and Ret its opinion of the stock offered. If the stock salesman refuses to fill out this questionnaire, have nothing more to do with his proposition, as it is evident that he is fostering a fraudulent promotion." The questionnaire pins the salesman down to answering the following questioae: I >ate Naum of company Name of salcftnvan Kind of stock offered Total tt*i>ue of stock STock given for property Stock given for good-will Htwk given for patent* Are you taking any Liberty Bond*? ....

TO UNCHARTED HEIGHTS The American bircUnen over ' at McCook flying field, Dayton, I since learning that a French aviator claimed to have climbed a bit higher in *the ozone recently than the 35,000 feet, which was the record made Jby Lieutenant John A. Macready of Uncle Sam’s flying corps, have accepted the challenge from France and announced a determination to try to ascend to a height of 50,000 feet. As the result cf experiments covering several years made by the United States Weather Bureau- using kites with thermometers attached, something has been learned of the conditions existing in the upper reaches of the arr. It has been ascertained that a temperature of 60 degrees below zero obtains at the six-mile altitude, and, queerly enough, that a slightly higher temperature exists for a space beyond that distance. It is the opinion of the meteorologists, however, that out in space, beyond the earth’s atmosphere, the thermometer would stand at absolute zero. Such uncharted heights have never yet been visited by man. What will be the experience of our aviators if they succeed in reaching them? They will encounter withering cold, and the •ur will be found so thin that breathing will be extremely difficult and any physical effort, no matter how slight, exhausting. It is believed, too. that at 50,000 feet they will encounter a wind blowing from west to east with the terrifying velocity of 200 miles an hour. What an aid that wind would be to a flyer on a hike from Los Angeles to New' York! It is said that above that ocean of w r ind is another, blowing at just as terrific a pace from east to wrest, ready to help ( the flsLer who hops off on the Atlantic coast for a flight to the Pacific. But can man reach such . heights? Could he, even with an artificial oxygen supply, live and , operate a plane in such an atmospheric condition? It fascinates the imagination to think of such an ascent as the men at McCook field are planning to attempt. Will any one succeed in reaching a height of 50,000 feet and come back to give his fellow creatures the story of his experiences and observations? It seems like attempting the unattainable. But so did flying seem unattainable two decades ago..

FOUND WAY BACK HOME In June, Mrv and Mrs. Ed. Powell motored from Princeton, Ind., to California. While stopping for lunch at the edge cf the Arizona desert, 1300 miles from Princeton, they released a one year old collie dog, Billie. The dog ran away and Mr. and Mrs. Powell, who now live in Fairfield, 111., had not seen him since. Billie, and draggled, rempeared .in fr:mt .of .the old Powell home at Princeton seveml weeks ago. He found strangMrs. Powell found Billie and itlhe deg wt>s taken to the home cf Mrs. Powiell’s mother, Mrs. C. E, Paul, w’here he was fed. Mrs! Paul and her family say there is) no d.r.'ht the asndmal is* the same one that was lost, but they ernnot explain hcnv Biliie was able to retrace a 1,300 mile trail to his former home. o — . CAN YOU CRACK THESE? A little nonsense now and then. AH' work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Here’s bit of wit w»e plucked from the w*avside: Where can a girl find a cap for her knee? Or a key for the lock of her hair? Can her eyes be called an academy Bj'cause there are pupils there? In the crowm of her hair what jewels are found? Who travels the bridge of her nose? Could she use in shingling the roof of her mouth The nails on the egd of her toes? Could the crook in her elbow be sent to jail? If so, what did he do? And where can she sharpen her shoulder blades? Burned if I know, do you? Can she sit in the shade of the palm of her hand. And drink half of one per cent beer? If the calf on her leg eats the corn on her toe, Why can’t she grow* corn on the ear? — -o Just a Suggestion. Speaking of books printed in America. it is much better to have that legend shown on Jthe reverse of the title page tiian at the end of the volume where it so often makes an anti climax. A novel’s last page will sometimes read like this: “She pressed her lips to ills. Printed in the United States of America.” —William Lyon Phelps, in Scribner’s Magtudne.

WATER MADE T.O LIFT ITSELF

Water has at last been made by a new invention to lift itself, and by means of this apparent defiance of the laws of nature engineers expect to put to work the power of slow-running creeks and rivers for the production of hydroelectricity. The invention, which is called hydraughtomat, uses the waterflow to compress air, and this, in turn, lifts a smaller volume of water. The continued process will lift water to any desired hight and the device works automatically, like a water-ram. Water lifted into tanks can be used to drive turbines to produce electrical energy.

THE FIRST COUNTY AGENT

The first American record of Agricultural Extension work- is found in thie history of Plymouth Colony and tells us that the name of the~“oounty agent" was Squanto and that he was an Indian. We read thus: “They sowed six acres of barley and pease and set twenty acres of com, making use cyf ten bushels which they had brought from subterranean storehouses of the Indians. In this work much assistance was rendered them by Squanto, a. faithful Indian, who taught them how to plant corn, manure with fish and hill it.”
