BABY BORN IN U. S.
EVERY TWELVE SECONDS.
The majority of infants come in-
to the world between 1 and 2 a. m,,
according to statistics announced by
the Chicago Lying-ln Hospital.
A baby is born somewhere in the
United States every twelve seconds,
figuring on an annual birth total
of 2,600,000. This means an
average of 216,666 births a month,
50,000 a week, 7,123 a day and 296
an hour, according to tabulations of
the American Research Foundation.
The country’s birtn rate exceeds
the death rate in a ratio of five to
two, for the yearly . death toll of
1,200,000, averaging a death every
half minute. Deaths at 3:30 in the
morning are more common than at
any other time of the day.

EQUAL SUFFRAGE FOR
PRESBYTERIAN WOMEN.
Women, after many years of
struggle, have at last won equal
suffrage with men in the ruling
bodies of the Presbyterian churches
of the United States, according to
results announced following a poll
of the various Presbyteries. An
overture, made by the 1929 general
Presbyteries (for a vote. The vote
as tabulated at this time showed
150 in favor of women serving as
elders, or in other words, having
assembly, was placed before the
equal rights with the men members
of the governing bodies of the
church.
So far 114 Presbyteries have vot-
ed against it but inasmuch as 147
votes is a majority the overture
{has been carried by a margin of
| four votes.

SAYS IRON FURNACES
PRE.DATED WHITE MAN.
Deep in the heart of “darkest
Africa,” ages before the coming of
the white man with his inventions
and labor saving devices, iron fur-
naces worked full blast.
This was the conclusion drawn
upon the return of Rudyard Boul-
ton, assistant curator of birds in
Carnegie Museum, from a 15-month-
expedition in the jungles of Africa.
Boulton brought back a recon-
structed picture of dark-skinned
iron puddlers tending iron furnaces
years ago in the jungle, of miners
taking ore from the surface and
pouring the raw ore into 20-foot
blast furnaces.
Wood was used as fuel to heat
the furnaces to white hot pitch and
improvised blowers, similar in prin-
ciple to the crude blowers used in
Pittsburgh’s early days, were con-
structed.
There is no doubt that the fur-
naces pre-date those of the white
man and were built long before the
white man discovered the secret of
smelting ore in this way, Boulton
said. The curator brought back
part of a blow pipe, some samples
of ore and a finished implement
product of the furnace—a hammer.
The furnaces were constructed
of terra cotta and the crude blow
pipes of clay.

STATE PRISONERS MAKING
NEXT YEAR'S AUTO TAGS,
With the completion of the con-
tract for the manufacture of 1930
automobile license tags at the
Western State Penitentiary, under
the jurisdiction of tne state depart-
ment of welfare, the tag depart-
ment this month swings into the
manufacture of the 1931 tags, ac-
cording to a report of Harry E.
Andrews, superintendent of prison
industries, to Mrs. E. S. H. Mec-
Caulley, state secretary of welfare.
Paints have been tested for the
new tags and metals are on hand.
The department of revenue has
placed the order for the new tags
with the division of prison in-
dustries. This virtually assures no
change in the form and method of
enumeration in the 1931 tags which
are said by officials of the revenue
to be entirely satisfactory.
