Cwnfil ‘News Servlce) h Mastitngton, Nov. 6.—The Lincoln orial in Potomas park, at Wash- . the wonderfully simple yet nderfully beautiful temple made by Congress, dnd with the with loving -interest -by ‘two ;'n men, serving .as resident ssioners,—former Senator J. C. 3 ‘Bla burn of Kentucky, and John miple Graves, of Georgia. This lone, emphasizes the whole- heartedness of the support of -this Projéct by the peoplé of the South. ‘he-United States of America, it is g suggested today, with its fab- 1lous wealth, is well able to erect its orjals to great men, and the peo- ?jg the taxpayers, do not hesitate to (ndorse the action of congress in ap- riating for such a one as that to ledicated to Lincoln. In fact, say filu!e ‘active in its building, when glld fordy the nation, no one section f interest may be said to have claim 1t; it belongs to all the people. {Speaking of the beauty of the Lin- eoln memorial and ‘the prospect for he dedication, Col. Graves said: “The dedication itself will be a gredt memorial, as.Lincoln is the mobt universally beloved man since Washington. The dedication of this méitorial, coming as it does under vthé seal and. sanction of congress, will make a great celebration. The orator who makes the address of the dayat the dedication will front an opportunity which if successfully grasped will give him, immortality. ster_at the Bunker Hill dedica- fot only made the occasion im- mfit’tal but him self as well. Bevernl great names have been suggested for the master effort. Three men especially, have been suggested —former, President Taft, the chair- max of the Lincoln commission; the rem‘lng president, Woodrow Wilson, | cr'’the incoming chiet executive, Watren G. Harding. It would be a great occasion for efther of them. Hoewever, these are merely sugges- ticys, and it is too early yet to say what will be done. “Lincoln Memorial itself is unex- celled for simple grandeur, fine masses of lines, artistic perception, niasdive Greek simplicity and,.above afl, the wonderful statute by French of the great emancipator, which shows g.marvelous fidelity to the sub- jeck and a sympathetic and masterful cofiception of the magnitude of the wotk undertaken. Washington has nothing to surpass the interest and charm and inspiration to be found in 'this great memorial.” Col. Graves will remain in Wash- ington all winter to serve in his ca- patity of resident commissioner. A lite-long student of the life and work of Lincoln, although Southern-born, | and a great admirer of the genius of the martyred president, the editor and_publicis? finds his new post a| task much to his liking. JUGOSLAV EMIGRATION p FROM AMERICA PASSES The crest of Jugoslav emigration from America seems to have passed. Steamship companies dealing princi- pally with Jugoslavs are no longer crowded. This would seem to prove that the recent phenominal emigra- tion was only the sudden release of nle regular outflow forcibly detninc(l hera durine the war. Tn addition to this reason, how- ever, letters from Jugoslavia, deserib- ing the unstable economic condition thero, have undoubtedly had a deter- rent ‘effect on emigration. The greatest percentage of recent Jugoslav emigrants has héen among the Serbs, who form the smallest part of the Jugo slavs in this country. The smallest percentage of re-emigration 18 that of the Croats.

The 1ast holder of the judicial title of-baron in Great Britain passed with the fecent death in Dublin of Chris- tophier Palles, who was baron of the exchequer In‘ Ireland. The title of baron" was abollshed when the court of exchequer was merged with the Queen's bench, and Lord Chief Baron Palles was the last bearer of it. .

SHRINE’s MEANING NOT PLAIN Erected ‘to the ;umory of Japanese Maid, -But Its Precise Idea Hardly Apparent, One of the pretty shrines of Japan is based on the story of a bedutiful girl, and to this day-occldentals can not figure out if ‘the shrine was to perpetuate a tragedy or an honor. The story is that Yamatodnke, one of the greatest warriors inxthe history of the country, halted for a night at the village of Shimodaira. He was weary of battle and strife, and sent out word to the village that he wished to be entertained by the prettiest girl there. Kemachiya was selected, and it is told how she spent the evening singing and dancing for the warrior. He went on his masterful way the next morning leaving the little maiden to mourn his passing, and to give birth to his child In due time. Now, the child died, as did its moth- er, and the village erected the shrine, and every few years it is rebuilt and made more beautiful. But what no occidental can discover is whéther the shrine was built to remind the citizens of the militarism of the old days that trod with relentless heels on beggar and wealthy. alike, and thus to pay tribute to a tragedy, or whether it was built to show that the great war- rior honored the humble village by taking one of its membership into his arms, NEW IDEA IN MOTIVE POWER Vanes Used In Windmills Forestall Possibility of Idleness in Any Weather. Europe is facing a gerious shortage of fuel, of all kinds. Coal, gas, gaso- line, 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 Fpench inventor has developed a new form of windmill In which vertical vangs are used. The advantages of this form are sald to be: Powe o matter in what direction the wind is blowing; noise- .legs operation; the windmill does not have to turn about, with consequent losg 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 practical- ly no upkeep or operating expense. The builder says that he is ready to undertake the building of such wind- mills in all capacities from one-half to 100 horse power and over. The wind- | mill is recommended to be run In con- nection with an electric generator and storage battery, so that, when the wind Is blowing, electrical energy is stored up for use during the calm weather. However, It Is estimated that'the windmill can operate in prac- tically any weather, and but very few tdle duys are encountered throughout the year, writes Hereward Carrington in Leslie's. This windmill may prove of the greatest practlcal value to many farmers and those desirous of obtuin- ing power cheaply and easily. The Navipendulum. . One of the problems which gaval architects have to confront is the Yoll- ing of a ship on the waves, and the “pavipendulum” is an invention .for dealing with It experimentally, The apparatus consists of two parts: A plate to which a niotion, cor- responding to that of a portion of the surface of a wave is imparted, and a pendulum of a pecullar shape which rolls upon the moving plate in the man- ner of a vessel supported by water. The -same pendnlum can be made to represent different vessels of given size“and shape by adding or renloving artificial resistauce to the oscillatory motion. This Instrument has been employed to study the rolling of the Itallan bat- tleships as .well as thoses of other countries. Criticizes Use of Oil.
