Visions of a rubber civilization haunted the brain of a inventor in 1853. The man was Charles Goodyear, discoverer of the vulcanization process for rubber, and he vrote a book about his struggles, his triumphs and his dreams which today is among the rarest of Americana. One of the very few extant copies is in the division of rare books of the Library of Congress and is among the raridebt-burden- ties of mechanical literature, says a writer in the Washington Star. Goodyear specifically did not advise eating rubber, nor wearing it next to the skin, but otherwise he proposed using it as the chief material in about anything man could need. He foresaw rubber books, rubber roofs, rubber streets, rubber sails and rubber ships, rubber pianos, rubber bridges, rubber violins, rubber boxing gloves, rubber saddles, rubber shoes, rubber harnesses, rubber canes, rubber dishes and rubber furniture of various sorts. The mans extreme enthusiasm might have been expected, for he had devoted his life to devising means for hardening the gum elastic whose strange properties first had attracted him as a small boy. His health had befen broken, he was loaded with debts, neighbors looked on him as. a harmless lunatic, his family had lived on charity all in the pursuance of his dream. members AH high school faculty were at the game in Laketown except Mr. Fulham, because of his wifes dormrtmont are Bovs of th responsible for the program this week It is hound to he a peppy one.

Georgian Bay Is Large Georgian Bay covers a lot of territory, both wet and dry. This body of water is so big that it might well be regarded as another of the Great Lakes.

If youve ever wondered how cattle brands were born, listen to the story of the XIT ranch, whose former employees recently met in reunion here. During the 1880s a Chicago syndicate acquired 3,000,000 acres of west Texas range land in exchange for building the huge red granite Texas capitol building in Austin. The synBarbecue dicate commissioned Campbell, first XIT foreman, to buy an entire outfit cattle, horses and chuck wagons. With one outfit came Ab Blocker, greatest of the Texas trail drivers. I need a brand, said Campbell. One that will be hard for a rustler to change and one that can be made with a single iron bar. Blocker thought a moment, then traced a design on the ground with his boot heel. Hows that? he asked. It was the XIT, designed to become famous throughout the cattle country. XIT cattle roamed literally millions of acres and the exploits of its cowboys were known throughout the area. XIT has no cattle now and its ranges have been made into small plots and sold.' The syndicate now has only a few thousand acres of land and that, too, is being sold. Its however, have now formed an association which meets every year to swap stories about the old days. Many stories concern Barbecue Campbell, the foreman. Once he needed a smoke and didn't have one, so he ordered a whole carload of brown cigarette papers. old-timer- s, ' Mr. Peteron : Explain who the executor of an estate is.

Animal Noses Know Needs Animal noses are particularly suited to their needs, points out Nature Magazine. The deer, with its narrow nasal slits, located on either side of its muzzle, is especially proficient in picking up tne scent of enemies from cross breezes. The sharp-edge- d pug hose of the pig is admirable suited for rooting up the long, nargarden. The row nose Is just the thing for turning up anthills and the dog is adept at following the scent because his nose is flat and can be held close to the ground. Grand Rapids.
