Inoldent of Boy Scout Jamboree In London Apparently Mlsunderetood There and H America. Europe la facing a serious shortage of fuel, of all kinds. Coal, gas, gasoline, wood, alcohol all these fuels are lacking. The result Is that Inventors have turned out In force to solve the power problem In new ways. A French inventor has developed a new form of windmill in which vertical vanes are used. The advantages of this form are said to he : Power no matter in what direction the wind is blowing; noiseless operation ; the windmill does not have to turn ubout, with consequent loss of time; there Is no danger from strong winds or gales; It develops five times the power derived from usual forms of windmills; there is practically no upkeep or operating expense. The builder says that he Is ready to undertake the building of such windf to mills in all capacities from 100 horse power and over. The windmill Is recommended to be run In connection with an electric generator and storage battery, so that, when the wind is Mowing, electrical energy is stored up for use during the calm weather. However, it is estimated that the windmill can operate in practically any weather, and hut very few idle days are encountered throughout the year, writes Ilereward Currlngton in Leslies. This windmill may prove of the greatest practical value to many fanners and those desirous of obtaining power cheaply and easily. There has been much comment on this aide of the ocean aa well as the other because during the recent International Scout Jamboree" in London the American Iloy Scouts did not dip their flag In salute, as the scouts of all other countries did. Even when ceremonies were held In honor of the war dead, the American flag remained steadily upright when all other flags were dipped. When King George reviewed the Scouts, again our flag remained stationary while all other flags saluted one-hal- him. It is reported that this "unfortunate event left an unfavorable irnpres-sioand critical comments have come from some quarters in this country also. But there will be no criticism In any quarter where the rules of the flag are known, and especially there will be no criticism from anybody who has read the infantry drill regulations. For there these very plain words appear: The national color never salutes. Every citizen, and all state regimental and other flngs render tribute to the Stars and Stripes. But proud Old Glory never ducks a courtesy, even to the president of the United States. The American Boy Scouts in London were simply obeying a primary rule governing the use of the flag Duluth Herald. n, FRIENDSHIP TRULY IN BUSINESS FOR FUN What More Could Be Aeked of Any Man Than the Sacrifice That la Here Recorded? Lord Leverhulme, English Millionaire, Explains Why, at 80, Ha Will Not Quit the Game. There are various ways of evldeno Sorrow and sufIng true friendship. fering bring out the best in others, but It is our habit to be sympathetic and not always does it prove that sympathy and friendship are akin. When a man will lend you money without collateral he is Indeed a friend. But we find our true friends in other ways. The other day we were in a hurry and we needed a hair cut So we beat it into our favorite barber shop to find our favorite barber busy, and a man ahead of us. We were about to depart without the trim we sorely needed, when the man ahead of us spoke up : "You always have the same barber, dont you? Yep," we replied. Well, Im next for his chair, but Im in no hurry. You Just go ahead and take my turn. IU wait" There was friendship for you, and as we thanked him for his kindness we couldnt help remarking: "Greater love hath no man than this, that he will give up his place in a Exchange. barber shop for another. Lord Leverhulme recently told a good story to show why business men work as hard ns they do. It Is not for the money, he said, as much as for the sheer fun of it. A man named Tyson, he said, went out to Australia In the early days. He now has sheep farma In Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, and South Australia. He has millions of sheep and cattle, yet he lives as simply as one of bis own stockmen. ne is now eighty years of age hale and hearty. When he was asked why he worked so hard and lived like a workman, he replied that It was not a matter of money at all. "I have pot sheep where there were no sheep, he said; "cattle where there wore no cattle houses where there were no houses white men where there were only black men before. That Is the fun I get out of it." OF TRUE PROOF Attention, Diogenes. Diogenes, wake up I Heres your honest man I Bight here In Houston, recently, a man entered the consolidated railway ticket office and purchased a ticket for a child more than five years old. Then he promptly tore the ticket up. It developed that a woman, accomn panied by a child, departed from nous-toa for the last few days city within more than 1,000 miles away, but did not obtain transportation for the child. When the ticket was bought the purchaser was asked when the party was going. He replied, They have already gone. Then it developed that the man, at the thought of cheating the railroads out of the cost of a childs ticket, decided to follow the old adage, Better late than never. Houston Post Unconventional. An old woman from Sullivan county came to a recent convention held at Indianapolis. Now, never before had she attended a convention, and she had very strange Ideas of conventions such as to thinking that they were made up of banquets, parties, etc. But this one was Just a line of lectures, lectures, lectures. And the old lady did not like It at all. At the close of the Inst day she went back to her hotel, weary, disappointed and hungry. She saw another delegate and began to talk to her of the weeks lectures. "No, Indeed, I have not liked this, she said emphatically, and more than that, I know I shall never be a conventional woman. Indianapolis News. Meaning of "Call, a Market Term. A call, in market parlance Is a contract giving the purchaser the option to buy a commodity or security at a fixed price, within a fixed time. It is used in speculation in grain, cotton, stocks and foreign exchange. When German marks, for example, are sell-- . Ing for 1.0 cents, a broker will sell for $85 the privilege of buying 25,000 marks, within nine months, at 5.0 cents each. If the price within that period goes above 5.0 cents, the holder of the call can purchase at that price and sell at the prevailing market price, and have the difference as a profit If the price does not reach the quotation named in the "call, the money spent for it is lost Effort at Logic.

Herbert Hoover, who has gained the thorough confidence of the American people In his relief work, Is heading the council. This council is composed of all relief organizations which are working against wholesale child tragedy In the former war zones of central and eastern Europe. Tin local state committee does not intend to Utah citizens for contribu"pester tions, as they believe the cause speaks for Itself. All contributions are therefore to be voluntary, raised rather through entertainments than canvass. Picture theatres all over the country have come to the hearty support ot the council and have set aside .Unman 21 for speeches and collections for the council.
