Walsh.) HEN Fanny Winn heard sounds of sobbing, and enter- ing her daughter’s room found Helena on the bed in tears, she did not ask what was the matter; she knew, She merely sat down on the side of the bed and patted Helena’s thin young shoulders with a hand that hard work had thick- ened, “There! There!” she soothed gently. Helena dug her feverish, wet face further in the pillow. “I'm ashamed of crying, but I can’t help it,” said said. “Mother, it just geems as if I couldn’t stand it not to be able to go on with school, If 1 could go to Normal two years I could teach! I—I can’t bear to go to work in the mill and then perhaps marry the way Catherine Scott did.” Fanny knew “all about Catherine Scott. She tried to say cheerfully: “Oh, it wouldn't be as bad as that! You can save your money and go on studying after a year or two.” “I could never catch up. Nobody ever does, Catherine didn’t. There was a time when she wouldn't have looked at that fellow, but she lost her courage. And I'm no braver than she was to begin with,” Helena sat up and wiped her face, swallowing fur- ther sobs. “Mother, there's no way out of it. I'll have to go to work. Father hasn’t any money to help me with my education and you've done all you can. And—and I've no faith in our gold mine.” Fanny was silent. She might have said that she had long ago lost faith in the gold mine, Once it had lured. That was when she was young and first married to Everet Winn. .She had listened then entranced to stories of the wonderful gold mine which Sveret had inherited from his father. Everet’s father in turn had inherited it from his father, who had been a rover and adventurer, Everet’s father had always intended to work the won- derful mine, but somehow he had never found either the means or the ambition, Everet’s idea was to sell it outright. He had spent much honest money advertising his claims but the Baby Giant found no buyer. It’s local- ity was obscure, although Everet had certain paperssto prove his ownership, and although his hair was growing gray and he had a daughter who wanted to go to college, he still ex- pected to derive a fortune from the sale of the fabulous mine, In the meantime Fanny had raised chickens, taken boarders and roomers, turned every honest penny that was possible in order that her daughter might be fed and clothed and edu- cated. While Everet followed indif- ferently a job that yielded an inade- quate income, Fanny had worked and worried and planned and prayed. But the time had come when she could do no more. She could not get the money necessary to send Helena to Normal for two years, “I've lost faith in the gold mine,” Helena repeated dully and her mother in silence echoed that declaration. Fanny arose from the bed. “Now, you lie still, dear,” she said. “I'm going downstairs to work a bit in my garden.” Fanny's garden was a great help to- ward keeping the family, Everet never touched it, but Helena assisted her mother. The girl sprang up now. “I'll come, toe,” she said. “I might as well be doing some good as lying here crying.” The two went downstairs and out of doors together. The garden was be- hind the Winn house and considering the smallness of the space it occu- pied, it yielded wonderfully. When Orlando Winn built his house he had really covered all the ground he pos- sessed. It was a large, overtopping house with a great attic stuffed with all the castoff belongings of three gen- erations of Winns. [Fanny had never had to buy any furniture; when she needed a chair or a table she went to the attic and got it. She had always wished that there had been less house than garden, for unless she kept boarders they used only a corner of the house, and a garden would have gone far toward supplying them with food. For some time Fanny had not been able to keep boarders, for over- work had affected her health. She had grown thin and nervous. As mother and daughter hoed and weeded the woman who had the day before moved into the house next door watched them from her side of the fence. She was young, she had come from a city and her husband was an expert worker at the mill; he earned probably more in one week than Ev- eret Winn had ever earned in any one month in his life. “Let's do something neighborly,” whispered Helena. “Let's offer that woman some radishes and lettuce.” “All right.” Fanny caught up a handful of lettuce, Helena snatched another handful of crisp, rosy rad- ishes and they moved closer to the fence. “Wouldn't you like these for your supper?’ Fanny asked. “Things of this sort are never So good, I think, as when they're taken fresh from the ground.” “Why, thank smiled in surprise. you!” The woman “You see, I'm not used to such—such kindness, In the city one has no neighbors. Why, i didn’t know a single person in the apartment house where I lived.” “I shouldn't like that,” Fanny said, and they leaned on the fence and be. | gan to get acquainted. [ “I think we're going to like the | country very much,” Mrs. Knox said, “except for one thing. I can't find any furniture I want; we only brought. what we had to have from the city, and the things they have in that little shop downtown look so shiny and cheap. I'm afraid we'll just have to live in a bare house until we can get to the city again.” “Oh, don’t do that!” cried Fanny, She found she liked this frank little woman very much, “I'll lend you some things. Our house is stuffed with old furniture.. But come up to our attic and I'll show you.” Mrs. Knox laid her radishes and let- tuce on the ground and followed as Fanny and Helena led the way. It was close and hot in the attic and the light was dim, but Mrs. Knox had good eyes. She went straight to a forlorn-looking old dresser and laid her hand on it. Her manner grew suddenly curious and eager. “It—it is mahogany !” she exclaimed. She moved from one decrepit article to another. “And this—and this— why, Mrs. Winn! How fortunate you are, You've got a gold mine here.” “A gold mine!” Fanny and Helena exchanged a stare. *“A gold mine!” Helena repeated after her mother. “A gold mine, indeed! I know a man in the city who will buy every bit of this at a fabulous price. You don’t want to give such stuff as this away. You want to sell it.” “But it's broken and rubbed!” “It can be made as good as new. Why, I've seen Mr, Mahin, that man I was telling you about, construct a whole console out of a few pieces of the original design—and sell it for a thousand dollars.” “A thousand dollars!” gasped Fanny. “Oh, do you think you could get him { interested in these things? The house | is full of them. I want to send my | daughter away to school and I can't | unless—"” Her voice broke. | “I'll write—no, I'll telephone to Mr. | Mahin this very day,” promised Mrs. Knox, The following day the furnitura maker arrived from the city. He bought every bit of old furniture | Fanny had in her house. “Well, it looks pretty empty,” Fanny | sald to Helena as after the furniture had been carted away in a big van | she and Helena were looking about, | | | | | “but you can buy more some day when you get to teaching.” “Mother! Two years at Normal without skimping on anything for me | and two years of rest for you with money for everything; why, no gold mine could do much better than that.” | Fanny laughed. | Need Be No Concern | Felt for Air Supply | | | Such as it is, no one has a real kick coming about the quantity of air that makes up our atmosphere. There's a | lot of it any way we look at it. Elev- en and two-thirds trillions of pounds, | if one wants the figures and knows | how to string ’em out in a fon. | There’s so much of it that its mere | weight presses down on each of us | to the extent of some fourteen tons, and we never feel it. There is all the air likely to be needed for birds, air- planes and balloons, and when it moves about as a gentle zephyr or an unpleasantly rough tornado the sup- ply is not lessened. But when it comes to breathing it we have some- thing else to say. Normal air contains only about a | full fifth, 20.96 per cent, of oxygen, | and it is the oxygen that keeps us alive and running. The nitrogen, which makes up the bulk of the re- mainder, is a mere space filler and we | breathe it in and out again becaus we must in order to get our broker- age of oxygen. But we have been breathing this | dilute mixture for such a long period, | probably from the very beginning, that | an increase of the oxygen content, un- | less by the most gradual of steps and stages, would probably leave none of us surviving. We can use a little more oxygen in emergencies, such as | when we have given a chap rather | too much nitrous oxide or the like to put him to sleep, but we would need | radical modification of our breathing apparatus to thrive with even twice as much oxygen as we normally get: There is no prospect of any such increase, however, and the probabili- ties are that any change would be in the reverse direetion, which is com- forting enough for the deep-breathinz lads with the big chests.—Kansas City | Times. Gentle Hint They sat together on the pier, look- ing across the bay at the white-winged vachts, | “Sweet !” he whispered. “Aren't all \ these people a nuisance?” | “Pity there are so many of them.” | “Wouldn't it be divine to be on an island, with the blue sky overhead, feathered songsters in the woods, a | carpet of ferns for our feet, just you | and 1?” | “Nobody else?” | “Why, who else would we need, | dearest?” “Well, 'Orace,” she said, “I wouldn't mind one man with an ice cream stall.

LEROY S. BURROUGHS, Iowa State University. OUNG people must realize that they are the creators of tomor- row. If the world is to be one whit wiser, more humane, more spiritual or in any way a better place in which to live, it is the youth of today who must make it so. The present holds prob- lems, coming in part from the past and reaching out into the future, which thoughtful persons must face. Among these problems, the changing position of woman, economie independence, the postponement of marriage, due to the ever-increasing amount of time demanded for an education ; the consequent moral and social problems involved, such as: How soon to marry, companionate marriage, shall both parties be wage earners, what of children, divorce? A very small percetange of our population does creative thinking, and it should be the duty of education to spread the results of this in- creased wisdom. We are training children to suit the preconceived ideas of the state, rather than to meet the real problems of life with open eyes and an unprejudiced desire to find the truth, The superior sneer of youth is nothing but an inheritance from our animal ancestors. It is the snarl which wrinkles back the nose, bares the teeth and permits one to prepare to bite. To view life with such a sneer is locating yourself in your proper biological sphere, Our grandparents could marry at eighteen years of age; our parents more likely waited until twenty-two or twenty-five, but the young person who wishes to prepare himself for life with a technical education fre- quently has to postpone marriage until thirty. No wonder we have some sexual irregularities, Awakening of China of High Importance in the Drama of Human Destiny By JOHN HAYNES HOLMES, New York Community Church. China lies at the very heart of the Asiatic movement today and Asia and perhaps the world will be vitally influenced by the course which she adopts within the next ten or twenty years. * Every friendly and helpful and peaceful influence should be granted her. To block her, thwart her, oppose or fight her will be a fatal policy. What happens to China at this moment may save or wreck the world for- ever. The awakening of Asia; and particularly of China, will be ranked with the World war, the Russian revolution and the passing of world power from Furope to America as one of the most significant events of the age. It is an ironical circumstance that the East is entering upon the same experience of establishing a new social order based on nationalism that the West has been undergoing fora period of 400 years, and that the start is being made at a time when the West, fearing a final cate- clysm of ruin in case of another World war, is making some progress al transforming its own social order. Mahatma Gandhi would now do for Asia and the world what Chris- tianity tried and failed to do for Europe and the world. He would save mankind in the only way it can be saved—through justice, love and peace. Japan is already lost—ter precious soul has been sold for the mess of Western pottage. India may yet be saved. Between the two stands China, wavering. The whole. force of dominant world influence sways her to- ward the West, with its arms, machines and futile pride. The whole force of her own essenial genius sways her toward Gandhi and the ways of humility and peace. Her decision will decide the future. In China is being played the drama of human destiny. Further Development of Airplane Dependent Upon Problem of Combustion By PROF. GEORGE GRANGER BROWN, University of Michigan. The lifting ability of a plane depends on the power of the motor. ht per horse power, the weight of the power plant alw ays exceeded the lift- Until the internal combustion engine was available with its low weic ing capacity of the plane. Just as the internal combustion engine made possible the airplane, so is further development of the airplane dependent upon still lower weights per unit of power. The efficiency of present plane and propeller design is so high that there is little opportunity for improvement along these lines. But if the weight of the motor and fuel could be reduced or its pOW- er proportionately increased, so much more “pay load” could be carried. All source of energy. human and animal existence depends upon combustion as its The first real progress man made in his ascent or de- scent from the anthropomorphic missing link depended upon his control of fire or combustion, and our further progress depends upon more intel- ligent and efficient control of combustion. At present there is a deadlock in the design of light, high speed in. ternal combustion engines for automobile and aircraft use. The effect on increased compression in increasing efficiency is thoroughly realized. Designers are prepared to supply high compression engines if the common run of motor fuels can be used in them. v Leisure, Science and Boredom Probably Three Greatest Threats Against Humanity By DR. McMASTERS, President Mount Union College. The greatest threat against humanity is for a human being to be- come bored with life. The chief threats are leisure, science and boredom. Leisure may either be made dangerous or an asset to humanity. We can employ our leisure in tearing down mind and body or devote it to the creation of intellectual enthusiasm. ' The threat of science is the greater development of machinery and the stonddrdization of labor. The increased number of suicides in the ranks of high school and college students is one demonstration of the threat offered by boredom, They held their lives valueless because they thought they had explored the world of “thrills.” We older men find an abundance of “thrilling” things to occupy our attention, however. These are provided by a study of astronomy, na- ture, psychology, philosophy and other worth while subjects which lead to the great objective, an intellectual enthusiasm. Man must overcome machinery, instead of allowing it to make him its slave. There should be five workdays each week and the need for con- structive reading and a higher education must be stressed. Education never ceases, no matter if a man lives to be 100. You Cannot Have Health If €onstipated “I am writing you in regard to Milks Emulsion.
