FIRST CATCHER S PAD
Tt Was Worn by Charlie Bennett of the
' Old Detroit Team
Charlie Bennett, the noted catcher of
the famous Detroit team of IBS 6-7,.
often told with delight the story of
| how he and his wife made tfae first
catcher's breast protector.
It was a constant source of worry
to Mrs. Bennett to watch her husband'
being made a target for . the speed
merchants of thirty years ago. And
sho fully realized the pressing neces-.
sity of some kind of armor to prevent
the hot shot sent through by these
speedy slabmen from caving in a rib
or two which belonged to her better j
half.
After much deep thinking and con
siderable labor the Bennetts shaped!
out something that had a faint resem-J
blance to the protector worn to-day.
In a private trial it worked fine, and
in rhe tryout Charlie would let the ball
slip through his hands and bang up
against his chest without experiencing
the slightest jar. After Bennett got
used to it he wore it in a regular con
test, and with the eyes of thousands
of spectators upon him, he would let a
fast one hit him square on the ehest. j
The ball would rebound back almost j
to the pitcher.—New York World.
THE WHITE FARM
It Deserved Its Name, and It Cheaply
Advertised Itself
During a vacation spent in the north
we were driven through a most pros
perous country, lined with beautiful
I farmhouses.
AmonT others, we passed a white
farm. The bouse was white, the barns
were white, the fences were white, j
Milk white cows were grazing in the i
fields, and snow white chickens were'
running upon the grass. A huge white !
log lay upon the grass, and a white
horse, with a white harness and white
cairiage, was hitched to a white post
by a white strap. The white graveled
drive was bordered bv white rocks. A j
white fountain threw up a white
spray, while white ducks floated upon 1
the water beneath.
Just as we drove by a lady dressed ;
in pure white, with white shoes, !
stepped ont of the door and seated her- j
self in a white hammock.
The whole effect was most striking j
and was an excellent example of ad !
vertisement without expense. The cost
would have been the same if no atten
tion had Veen paid to one color. There
was no need of giving a name to that |
farm. It is known as the White farm
for miles around and is one of the
show places of the district.
The same idea, of course, could be :
carried out with other shades.—Pro
gressive Farmer.

UNSOLVED MYSTERIES
Such as Radium, the Human Brain and
the Electric Fluid
Alexander Graham Bell was once
asked if he understood precisely hoiy a
telephone conveyed the sound of a hu
man voice. His answer was: "No.
I only know what is done. I do not
know how it is accomplished."
One is reminded of Lord Kelvin's re
mark to some of his professional col
leagues near the close of his brilliant
career. It will be recalled that H«-il
gave to Kelvin the instruments used in
the first demonstration of telephony at
the Philadelphia Centennial in 1376.
It was many years later that Kel in
said that he know no more as to the na
ture of electricity than he knew when
he first began to work with it.
From y Franklin to Edison master
minds among os have done wonder - ' >1
things with cells and dynamos, genera
tors and transformers, directiug tie in
terplay of dreadful elemental forces ns
inscrutable as they are majestic. Vid
still we do not know what electricity
is.
A woman finds that tons and tous
of a certain ore produce a fraction jf a
gram of radium, and we go to work
with it and behold the portentous -•<>-
suits it achieves, but we do not know
what it is.
A congregation of sapient alienists!
at a trial gives expert testimony, but j
no man among them knows wliat hisj
own brain is nor how it gives instau-1
taneous directions to the foot And j
hand. Mystery is at the very root of j
life and rules it to the end. "hate -:r j
w»" we turn we find the abyss '.in :
plumbed, the unfathomed darkness. j
How ridiculous is our presumption of,
knowledge before so vast an iguorance!
—Philadelphia ledger.
A SOLAR ECLIPSE
When Totality Occurs Nature Takes on
an Awesome Aspect
A total eclipse of the sun is a won
derful sight. Where the eclipse is but
partial the* disk of the moon will
creep across the face of the sun little j
by little, but will never completely ob
scure the orb. But where "totality
occurs the sun at a given moment will |
be entirely obliterated and the inhabi
tants of the regions across which the
black ban i will stretch will perceive j
the most wonderful phenomenon known j
to astronomers — the display of tl*j j
"corona"' of the sun.
Great waves of incandescent gas|
hundreds of thousands of miles long,
reaching out from the sun into the
ether, will be perceived. The country- <
side will take on a sinister, night gray
color, and tints of nature will pale aud
deaden as at twilight, the temperature
will diminish sensibly, the birds, be j
lieving night has oome, will cease their 1
song and seek their nests. A person
who has never seen this strange mani-i
festation of nature canot form any.
idea of its awesome aspect.
This eclipse is a recurring phonom
enou. At the end of every period of
eighteen years and e' ev « u days the
moon conies between the earth and
the sun at just such an angle that the j
sun's light is completely shut off from
a portion of the world and partially:
shut off from a much larger part. — j
New York World.
A BILLION DOLLARS
The Time It Would Take an Expert to
Count Them Singly
X wonder if we realize when we talk
of a billion dollars what an eßormous
sum of money it means!
We all know how rapidly an expert
counter of coins will manipulate them.
You can scatecly follow the motfcm of
his fingers a" he shifts the coins from
one pile to another and counts them.'
The treasury experts will count 4,000
silver dollars in an hour and keep it!
up all iav long, but that is their limit, i
Working eight hoars a day. then, an
expert counter of coins will count' 32,-!
000 silver dollars in a day, but how
long will it take him at that rate to 1
count $1,000,000? Thirty-one days.
But that is only the beginning of the !
measurements of great figures, for if
this same man were to go on counting
silver dollars at the same rate of speed
for ten years he would find that he had
only counted 100,000,000 of them audi
that to count $1,000,000,000 would re-j
quire 102 years of steady work at the
rate of eight hours a day during every
working iav of every one of the 102
years.— O. P. Austin, Former Chief of
Bureau of Statistics.
"Engaged Man's Panic"
"Engaged man's panic" is as fa-;
miliar a phenomenon as the squawk-;
ing of a captured chicken or the flap
ping of a hooked fish. An I women in-'
stinetiveh- anticipates it, feels it be-1
fore it actually begins, deals with it j
according to her abilities. No woman
crea- feels that this is a slur upon her.;
She knows that it does i>or involve her.
but is only the nervousness of the free
at the tou.'h of the matrimonial bridle
—and that bridle as she knows and as
he knows, is not in her hands, but in !
the hands of society. Even the roan 1
marrying for a home, even the man
marryuig for children or for money,)
even the man marrying because only|
by marriage can he hope to get some
one to associate with him, bear with;
him, listen to him on terms of his own j
arTaaawg—ennen these men feel the
nervousness as tfiie bridle drops over 1
their hea<ls and the bit presses their,
quivering Hps.—From ' • Degnarmo 'si

MR. BRETZ STATES POSITION
School Director Who Broke Deadlock
Gives Out an Explanation
Editor, the Star-Independent:
l>ear Sir:—ljest my attitude in the
contest for the presidency of the School
Board be misrepresented to the public
or be misunderstood by the publie, I
deem it proper to make a personal
statement in explanation of my action.
My reasons for voting for Mr. lioycr
are as follows:
First—The law requires that School
Directors in districts of the second
class shall meet and organize on the
first Monday of December.
Second—The contest had extended
through one hundred and fifty-si* bal
lots at two different meetings and there
was no hope of electien unless some
directors or directors would break the
deadlock by voting for the candidate of
the opposite party.
Third —1 made every effort to get
the factions together, by urging each
to uti'te in the support of some person
upon whom all might ugree, but with
out avail.
Fourth—Mr. Bover might have been
elected on any one of the one hundred
and fifty-six ballots that were taken,
had he for himself. This he re
fused to do, casting his vote in cus
tomary courtesy for the opposing can
didate, which courtesy the latter re
fused to reciprocate.
Fifth—Mr. Boyer's ability as a pre
siding officer is unquestioned*
Sixth—l know nothing against his
persoual character.
Seventh—There has been no change
in the Board during the past year,
either as to personnel or political "com
plexion. The time, therefore, was in
opportune for a prolonged and unavail
ing contest.
Kigbth—A settlement of the issue
was imperative iu the interests of the
schools, and failure to elect within rea
sonable time might hav e resulted iu
complaint to the Court and removal of
the entire board, or such of its mem
bers as the Court should believe to have
obstructed the organization. (See Sec
tion 217, page 17, of school code).
After the 8.-ard's first meeting on
December 7, 1914, at which meeting I
voted consistently, according to my
best judgment, for the same candidate
on every ballot, I gave the entire mat
ter my most earnest and conscientious
consideration.
I came to the determination that, if
at the next meeting, after a reasonable
number of ballots had been cast, there
were no election, I would vote for Mr.
Bover as the best meaus of breaking
the deadlock and allowing the business
of the schools to continue. 1 have been
entirely free in the matter and have
acted upon my own individual responsi
bility and in accordance with my best
judgment.
Harry M. Bretz.

Great Diamond Display
Saturday one of the windows of Clas
ter's jewelry store contained a displaY
that attracted unusual attention. It was
an erhibit of unmounted diamonds.
There were diamonds Iby the handful,
diamonds in piles—all sizes—(beautiful
and flashing. Tile display, representing
a fortune of $125,(M)0, was considered
a low estimate of their value. People
crowded aibout the window all day to
look at thorn, and many comments and
compliments passed among the N crowd. A
special policeman was on duty ail day to
protect the window.
Still Observe Druid Festival
The odd midsummer fire festival of
druidieal origin is still celebrated on
the continent, but there is probably
only •ne spot in Great Britain where it
is still observed, and that is Tarboltoa,
in Ayrshire. For days before the fes
tival the village lads collect material*
for tha great bonfire. The fuel is built
upon an altar of turf, ami a match i»
supplied at sunset, after whicii the folk
solemnly march around the blaze, and
the darin.» youngsters vie with ,one an
other in dashing through the flamos.—
London Tit-Bits.
