METHODIST CHURCH
PHILANTHROPIES.
Rev. Horace Lincoln Jacobs
pastor of the Bellefonte Methodist
Episcopal church, spent the early
part of last week in Harrisburg and
Philadelphia on business pertaining
to the Central Pennsylvania con-
ference. While away he attended
the annual meeting of the board of
philanthrophies, which has in charge
the five great philanthrophies pro-
moted by the conference.
Reports on the debt payment
campaign conducted last year to
raise $200,000, showed a total in
subscription and pledges of $272,-
000. Deducting life bonds, annuity
and bequests of $40,000, leaves a
balance of $232,000, on which sum
cash payments up to April 19th
amounted to $62,536.76, with
fifteen hundred additional remit-
tances yet to be tabulated. This
represents the first of six annual
payments. Rev. Jacobs prepared all
the publicity matter for this money-
raising campaign in the twenty-six
counties included in the conference.
He is one of three representatives
on the board of philanthropies from
the conference trustees and at the
meeting, last week, was elected
president. These trustees represent
the Conference Corporation, which
has in trust more than half a mil.
dollars from which the
trustees pay each year $30,000 to
the fund for the support of retired
| ministers, the widows of deceased
preachers and dependent children,
$84 995.01 having been distributed
{last year.

62 the stone itself, which consists of
minute particles of felspar, mica, and
oftier minerals, all of which have a
ciirlous affinity for the quartz of which
it is mainly composed. The tiny points
of each particle, as they fit in with
each other, also give certain elasticity
to the quartz. Elastic sandstone, as
it has been called, is also found in
the East Indies and North America,
usually accompanied by gold, as well
as diamonds.
Why Reindeer Moss Is
Harmful to Plant Life
"Reindeer moss, the crisp and curly
lichen that is the chief dependence of
reindeer in the Far North, is an enemy
of forest growth farther south, re-
ports Anne E. Allen, of Cincinnati, in
the scientific journal, Ecology. This
lichen is by no means confined to the
lands where reindeer pasture, but
grows over great areas, especially as a
ground cover under trees, as far south
as Florida and Mexico. It forms dense
mats like fine shavings, and the seeds
of trees and other plants, caught on
top, are held away from the moist
earth where they might sprout and
grow. They hang there in the air un-
til they die of drought. Even if they
do work their way down to the earth
and sprout, their troubles are not
necessarily over. The reindeer moss
heaves and moves about restlessly as
it is alternately wetted and dried, and
in doing so frequently breaks or up-
roots seedlings that have pushed their
way through its meshes.

Why “Walking Chalk Line”
To say of anybody that he walks
the chalk line is to convey the thought
that he observes strictly the conven-
tions of propriety and ordinary con-
duct and never for a moment even
posed obligation.
This modern idea is a long way oft
from what the phrase originally con-
veyed, for in the beginning walking
the chalk line was used as a test by
which a man actually walked along a
chalked line to demonstrate his sobri-
ety!
While the expression today retains
metaphorically some of its early sig-
nificance, it has, as everybody Knows,
in the wider sense indicated.
Why Chocolate Is in Demand
That chocolate is a favorite flavor
was about 500,000 tons, of which the
United States used approximataly
200,000 tons. A good part of this went
into the making of chocolate candies,
chocolate bars and other confectionery
products. The use of chocolate and
cocoa as a beverage claimed another
part of this amou:t, and the wide de-
mand for chocolate flavored desserts
It is said that since 1916 we have
chocolate products.

USE HUMAN EAR AS RADIO
RECEIVER TO AID THE DEAF
Discovery of Austrian Scientists May
Be Boon to Those Who Have
Lost Hearing.
Vienna.—That it is possible for the
human ear without the ald of the usual
microphone to “hear” sound transmit-
ted over an electric wire—in other
words, for the ear itself to perform
the function of a telephone receiver
—was demonstrated to the Vienna
Medical society.
The new apparatus, invented by
Prof. Stephen Jellinek of Vienna uni-
versity and Theodore Scheiber, Vienna
municipal electrical engineer, turns
sounds by means of a microphone into
an electrle current, but Instead of
turning them back into sound waves
by another microphone it transmits
them direct to the ear. The apparatus
is complicated and dangerous because
all sounds and the transmitting cur-
rent must be highly amplified.
The discovery opens up the possi-
bility of enabling totally deaf per-
sons to hear conversation and music
providing the hearing nerves are not
disabled. Transmission of sound by
an electric current seemed to prove
the theory that the transmission of
sensation by the nerves is a form of
electric phenomena.
The eardrum, it is thought, ords
aarily behaves like a microphone
and the hearing nerves are like the
electric wires connected with a mi-
crophone. The eardrum thus would
turn the sound waves into an elec-
tric current which conveyed them over
the nerves to the hearing center of the
brain.’
The new apparatus conveys an
electric current, into which sounds
have been converted by means of a
transmitting microphone, directly to
the nerves of hearing, which conveys
them to the brain.
{nvention of Butter
Is Credited to Camel
Chicago.—Necessity 1s only the step-
mother of invention.
Not necessity, but the careless way
a camel handled his feet, brought
forth the first pat of butter, accord-
ing to Edward H. Farrington, of the
University of Wisconsin's Qollege of
Agriculture. :
“Investigation repeatedly challenges
the theory that progress has been
gained only through man’s restless
urge to subdue nature,” Farrington
said. “Butter, for example, was neith-
er the prize of a romantic Jason-quest
nor the reward of patient laboratory
labor. It wai an accident.
