HAVE A BARU,
WHEN THE URGE
IS ON
By THOMAS ARKLE CLARK
Dean of Men, University of
Illinois.
RESTON is at the head of an or-
ganization whose members are not
doing well. In fact they are doing
very ill and bid fair, if they do nm
improve, to bring up at the lower
end of the list of similar groups.
“What do you think is the matter
with our boys?’ he asks me. “They
eertainly aren't dumber than the
other fellows; they've had just as
good training, and our house is just
as well suited to study as are the
other houses, where the fellows are
getting on much better, We would
like to have good grades.”
The explanation was quite

saw no especial reason for doing
well. They were not pushing them-
selves mentaliy to reach any partic-
easy.
They
ular goal. They were not trying
their best.
Most people will recall that ten
years ago or so when young fellows
were preparing themselves to enter
the active service, how quickly they
got ready. In some of the more tech-
nical branches of the service where a
knowledge of mathematics and me-
chanics was necessary men did in
three months what it would ordi-
narily have taken them a year or
more to accomplish. They were
eager to make the necessary prep-
aration; they held their minds to the
work in hand; the urge to reach a
certain perfection of accomplishment
was on them, and we all marveled
at what they were able in a surpris-
ingly short period to do. It was
equally true in all branches of mil-
itary preparation, we learned. When
we push ourselves to the utmost we
ean go far in an amazingly short
time.
The speaker at church this morning
has traveled frequently in Palestine,
and he was telling us of a long walk
he and a companion had taken—44
miles it was in all, 1 believe, there
and back—from Jerusalem to the sup-
Study Flying Fish
Chalk Once Animals
New York.—That troublesome ques-
tion, “How do flying fishes fly?” is
still pestering scientists, although
many attempts to solve the mystery
have been made,
J. T. Nichols, curator of recent
fishes at the American Museum of
Natural History, and C. M. Breeder,
Jr, research associate of the New
York aquarium, find some truth in
both sides of the argument as to
whether these fishes sustain their
flight by flapping of the wings, or
pectoral fins, or whether they merely
soar as gliders.
Writing in Natural History, the
museum's journal, the ichthyologists
say:
“The flight is largely a planing one,
posed seat of the ancient Emmaus
toward which the two disciples were
trudging after the crucifixion, when
Jesus joined himself to them. It was
an exhausting walk through a‘ burn-
ing sun for the most part, over roads
indescribably rough and up and down
hills which tried the strength and left
the travelers weak. Twelve hours
they were in making the journey, and
they wasted no time and even rode
a part of the way.
“How quickly can a native do it?”
the speaker asked a friend, for he
had heard something of the speed
and endurance of the lithe Arabians.
“Well,” his friend replied, “it de-
pends on the situation. At a critical
time when urged by necessity in half
the time or less than it took you.
When the urge is on, one can go fast.”
Two days and a half, when mount-
ed on camels, the speaker said, it took
him and his friends to traverse the
distance between Thor and Jerusalem,
and yet a native on foot described the
distance in 24 hours, but he, of course,
was in a hurry and urged on by im-
pending calamity,
If Preston’s companions only want-
ed badly to do so, they could easily
head the list.

but at certain times and under cer
tain conditions a definite wing mo-
tion may enter into and contribute to
it. The enlarged pectoral fins or
wings are on anatomical grounds and
structurally—from_ an engineering
point of view—ideal gliding planes, so
arranged as to be easily held rigid
at the proper angle.
“The wings of large flying fishes
are sometimes seen to vibrate or flut-
ter, a motion more reasonably refer-
able to tension in setting them, or to
the wind, than to a definite function
in flight. In very small and young
fishes, on the other hand, the wings
vibrate to such an extent that they
blur, appearing like those of a flying
insect.
Can you believe that the chalk
with which you write on the
blackboard or slate is made of
the remains of living creatures?
This is true. It is the calcium
carbonate from the bodies of
tiny animals that once lived in
the sea, This substance drift-
ed to the ocean bed and, piling
up, formed the chalk cliffs.
(©. 1928, Western Newspaper Union.)
“It seems that with an increase in
age and size, a buzzing, beelike flight
is replaced by a true soaring flight
and that the former i8 very likely a
function of absolute size as are so
many larval specializations.
“Flying fishes fly more freely in a
strong breeze and attain greater ele-
vation, speed and distance than in
calm weather. The conclusion is al-
most inevitable that they utilize the
wind to some extent to lift and pro-
pel them, even though it is difficult
to understand how this would be ac-
complished.”
The observations were bascd on the
collection of flying fishes gathered
by William Beeb’s Arcturus expedi-
tion.

Red ©
Washington.—Through the ministra-
tions of the home demonstration
agents of the Department of Agricul-
ture, farm women have put the ban
on unsightly homes.
The lavish use of red paint, associ-
ated in the past with farms, fs
frowned upon by her field agents, says
Miss Grace Frysinger, head of the
home demonstration work in the Cen-
tral states.
Federal employees are trying to
point out to the farmers’ wives that
even the slightly lower price of red
paint cannot make up for the land-
scape-blotting qualities it has when
daubed informally upon all buildings
on the property.

Pertect Crystal Orb
Washington.—Resting on its circu-
lar base, the world’s most perfect erys-
tal stands ready to reveal whatever
secrets of the future may be desired.
Appropriately enough, this rare globe
of glass, nearly 14 inches in diameter
and weighing 110 pounds, is in Wash-
ington’s National museum.
To this perfect orb come thousands
to gaze, and, if possible, obtain a mes-
sage from the mystic future or a
warning based on events of the past.

in foretelling the future.
Two hundred years ago Emperor
Chieng Lung received a massive block
of crystal, mined in ancient’ Durma.

It must have weighed a thousand
pounds, and been at least four feet
square.
The emperor gave orders that the
mass be used to make a crystal ball
under Japarese artisans, the most
| skillful known in this work. The
crystal, then in all its luster and scin-
| mandarin was told that he might have
of the largest possible size. To do
this the most skillful craftsman of
the old empire was chosen. This took
more than a year of effort. It was
then taken to Japan for repolishing.

Ali the mysticism and hypnotic power

countries leaps to the imagination as

Long, long ago, in China, it is said,

Thus, it is believed in the Orient
that the crystal ball is the abiding
place of one’s ancestors. It is be-
lieved to possess the power of fore-
telling evil, since any evil spirit en-
tering the house will first attempt to
hide in the ball. When trouble im-
pends, the ball is placed at night out-
side the home. The cold morning dew
clouds and dulls the luster, Care-
fully, then, and gently the surface is
rubbed, and, if the dew vanishes and

Crystal gazing has long appealed to
Lumanity. Congressmen are not the

Bacon has told in his writings of the
crystals possessed by the friars in
which events happening at far dis-
tant places were mirrored.

or at least in colors that have some
relation to one another. The fences
are mended and upstanding, and chick-
ens and live stock are kept behind
pens or wire fences, and are not al-

parts of the yard and house.”

The season of conventions, political
and otherwise, is at hand, and the de-
sire to become a delegate and enjoy
the many pleasant privileges without
| personal expense is entertained by
many. The impulse is not a modern
| trait by any means. Once when the
Wesleyan ministers of England were
choosing delegates to attend the an-
| nual conference at London, many of
the members put forth all sorts of
| frivolous reasons why they should be
chosen, Among the seekers for the
privilege was a venerable member
who, at a meeting, rose, and said:
“Mr. Chairman, I wish to attend the
; meeting of conference in London. My
years would perhaps entitle me to the
privilege, but I waive that, as I have
another reason as strong as many of
those already given by my brethren,
and that is—I want to set my watch
by the clock in St, Paul's!”
