Dock, of Graeliens burg, known among a host of old ac acquaintanees here as "Vinnie," was asked last week at lier home if she really intended to be one of the White House pickets of the suffragists. Miss Dock, who is one of the fore most leaders of tho suffrage cause, said: "I liad the privilege of picketing for tho Knglish Women's Freedom League at the House of Commons in 1909 and intend taking my turn soon at our Whito House. My Knglish ex perience gave me a deep conviction of the vast moral value of the silent protest. To say it did not gain the vote for English women is only to tes tify to the intense stubbornness of the refusal of justice by those in power. "1 am a woman of sixty," continu ed Miss Dock, "witlf many kinds of ex perience behind me, and I affirm that tho more troublous and perilous are the signs of the times tho more reso lutely and insistently should women make their protest against disfran chisement and their demand for polit ical voice. !"To me it would seem nobler, more just, more truly 'American' if men instead of carping- at us would stand ' forth to demand that ordinary political | recognition for us which we have BO long been denied and, which is sup posed to form the basis of our coun i try's freedom. "The work done by conventional bodies is valuable and indispensable, j but the unconventional ones have al ways been the leaven that has leaven ! Ed the whole. "What would your gin- I gerbread bo without the ginger?" EXTERTAIXS AT DIXXER IX CELEBRATION OF BIRTHDAY j Mr. and Mrs. 11. A.

Dr. Alfred C. Fones, of Bridgeport, Conn., says that approximately ninety live millions of persons in the United ! States have decayed teeth, notes the I Popular Science Monthly for March. I Dentistry's next great step, in his I opinion, is to wipe out or prevent ! tooth decay by a systematic campaign iof education on the care of the teeth among schoolchildren. How shall this be done? Bridge port's plan has attracted wide atten tion already. Every chilli 'n that city submits to a thorough examina tion of the mouth and is given free | treatment. This type of clinic costs I about eighty cents per child per year. | The city assumes one-half the respon sibility in educating and helping the S children to preserve their teeth. The ! other half, which is placed on the child and its parents, consists in providing j proper food and in caring for the I mouth. TAKING TWO THOUSAND PICTURES A SECOND Some day the scientific camera-man Ila going to photograph for us the thou sands of movements in nature which we have never been able to see be ji-ause of their lightning swiftness. This cainera-man, predicts the Popu lar Science Monthly for March, will | have a camera capable of taking two [thousand pictures per second —or pos sibly a camera which takes a continu ous motion picture with no revolving ishuttor and intermittent illm move- I ment. He will. In fact, be able to | photograph the fastest movements in | nature. ! In Germany a picture has been I taken in one ten-millionth part of a : second. The ordinary motion picture j camera takes sixteen pictures a see lond. This means that a considerable j portion of the action is not' phbto-* 1 graphed. In Aiming a motion picture drama this loss means nothing: but in scientific research the films would be worthless. At present the fastest mo tion picture camera takes pictures at the rate of two thousand per second. Naturally this camera misses very lit tle of the action and shows us many wonders of nature which the human eye has never looked upon. Hogs Have No Need of Brains Kansas City, Mo., Feb. 2 trary to the theory that brains are an essential to animal equilibrium, four Holt county farmers are willing to testify that a 500-pound hog slaugh tered recently at the farm home of James Collins, near Mound City, as found to have a perfectly empty brain pan.
