GERMAN OBSERVATION POST SURPRISE VISIT OF AIRPLANE 'V' This picture of a German concrete observation post at a point In France now in the hands of tho French gives an Idea of the elaborate manner In which the Germans make war. THINGS WORTH KNOWING Mt. Whitney Is 14,002 feet high. Arabs predominate l old Tunis. American glass Is used In China. Tunis Is governed really by the French, A windmill In Europe grinds grain Into flour for n baker and then mixes and kneads It Into dough. , Almost automatic In Its operations Is a new cabinet for quickly devel oping X-ray photographs for dentists' use. The formality of knocking before entering didn't bother this airplane that recently paid a visit to the bedroom of a householder In Twlck-nhain, Kngland. Hut then it must be remembered that the visit was as much of u surprise to the airplane as to the householder. Something went wrong and tee machine, getting out of the control of tho pilot, crashed Into the roof of tills house. Fortunately neither the pilot nor the sleeper was Injured. Tree Growing From Telephone Pole. New Orleans has n live oak tree growing out of a cedar telephone pole. The tree, which Is probably four years old, Is three or four feet long. It Is believed that an ncom blew Inlo a hole which had been made Ja tlt vole when the limbs were cut off. Oila From Lemons. A process Invented by an Italian chemist for extracting essential oils from citrous fruits Is sidd not to affect the chemical properties of tho oils In any way, and It Is predicted that It eventually will revolutionize the Industry. (Conducted by the National Woman' ClirlHtlun Temperance Union.) SALOON FOISTED ON POOR MAN. All of a poor man's wealth Is Invest ed In his children, says Mr. John F. Cunneen, labor leader and worklugman of Chicago. The poor man sacrifice his whole life to raise his children ami hopes when they grow up they will be a help to him In his old age. If the rich mail's children go to th had the rich man still has money to support hltn, but when the poor man's children go to the bad all his wealth is lost and he is left In his old age to n life of misery. The saloon Is an In stitution that robs the poor man of bis children, and he ou'ht to be against It even mojli than the rich man. The rich men will not live whero there are saloons. They will hav their laud deeds fixed up so that no sa loons can be established, or they will have laws made to liar out saloons. Some Christian people ease their con sciences by having laws made to keep the saloons away from the church doors; but when you drive the saloons away from the rich man's home and the doors of the church, you drive them to the hollies of the poor people the leust nble to withstand their rav ages. The poor man cannot drive the saloon away from his door with money, like the rich man, for he has not the money; he has a vote, and with that vote he can, and should, drive the aa loon away from his door. INSURANCE MEN DRY. Speaking editorially of the waste In human life due to drink, the Insurance Magazine says: "One of the brightest hopes that this country had In Its entrance Into war was the hope of the abolition of the manufacture and use of booze. "It Is permissible to disagree with the president that beer and wine are In any way more necessary than whis ky. Every one of them Is a first aid to German bullets, an enemy to food conservation and a deliberately unjust tax upon the entire country In time of war. "At some national or perhaps inter national conference all the chiefs of the Insurance world will, put a co-operative ban on Intoxicants. "It Is the man who drinks who Is more largely responsible for the pres ent mortality tables than any other factor. "It Is the man who drinks who la forced to pay a greater sum for his Insurance than otherwise would be tho case. . . . "If the man who drinks Is still ac ceptable as a risk nt a certain price, then the man whose system Is free from the braln-numblng poison Is en titled to u lower rate." SCREEN ACTRESS TALKS. Those who enjoy good, wholesome motion picture plays will welcome the action of Miss lllanchc Hates In de clining to appear in any production In which drunkenness Is depleted. "There are many reasons," she says, "why all the plays In which I've nppeared have been on the water wagon, nnd one of them is that I fou'd not participate In n drunken orgy any more on the stage than off. My managers would often say to me, 'Ilut it gets the laughs, and that's what we want.' And I would answer: 'Drunkenness Is one of the most pitiful and unpleasant conditions that any man or woman can descend to, and If the American the ater audiences laugh ut the antics of an Intoxicated person, I firmly believe that the American sense of humor ought to he censored." IMPORTANT.AS OLYMPIAN GAMES' OR BALL CONTESTS. "Supposing our soldiers were pre paring themselves to uphold the honor of their country In the Olympian games," said the Times. "Their friends would help them and would he filled with horror If they saw one golu? wrong. To encountge him to drink would be held an act of treachery de liberately Intended to Injure hi in and the national cause. What are tho Olympian games, or any other contests whatever, compared with this? They, are play, make-believe. This Is the real thing, the true test of manhood. Is our manhood, then, to be a shame or an honor to us?" START WITH BEER. "No youth or young woman begins the alcoholic drug habit with what yoa term The condensed and highly con centrated nlcohojlc drinks, like whis ky," says Mr. Samuel Wilson, writing to William Ilandolph Hearst In the American Issue. "In my law enforce ment work I have visited hundreds of. saloons, cabnret restaurants nnd dance1 halls. Invariably the drink of the young men and young women Is beer or wine." BEER STROKE. "One of the principal factors In pro ducing heat prostration is the drinking1 of beer," says Pr. W. A. Evans In the "How to' Keep Well" department of the Chicago Tribune. "It has been proposed," ho continues, that the termj 'heat stroke' be changed to 'beer stroke.' . . . The use of beer Is more hnrniful than the use of whisky because most people have sense enough to keep away from distilled liquors in hot weather, but somehow they have gotten the idea that beer la cooling." CHIEF FACTORS. Food, money and men are tho chief factors In war as thoy are In pence. Prohibition provides the food by con verting the staff of life Into bread In stead of Into bctf; prohibition pro vides the money to buy the bread ; and prohibition will put $2,500,000,000 into the pockets of the people to flnonce the war. Clinton N. Howard. GOOD IDEA. . We need all the alcohol we enn make for munitions. "Shoot the booze at the kaiser," says Collier'. i ) ir. : i "
