OPFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS FROM SENATE TO BENCH United States Senator W. S. Kenyon of Iowa will leave the senate to become a federal judge in the Eighth district. This is an extraordinary procedure. There are instances where judges have quit the bench to be- come a senator, but in reversing the order, Senator Kenyon establishes a precedent. The senate lost no time in confirming the ap- pointment and, in fact, that august body worked with such dispatch that to some it looks as if Sen- ator Kenyon’s colleagues were glad to get rid of him. Back of this thought may be the suspicion that President Harding, displeased with the activity of the Iowan as chairman of the so-called farmer bloc, believed this a good method of putting him into political retirement. Such conclusions.savor too strongly of narrow partisanship to be taken seriously. Senator Kenyon’s appointment appears to be in keeping with President Harding’s practice of trying to get the best possible man to fill the vacant place. By training, experience and temperament, William S. Kenyon ought to make an exceptionally good United States judge. For two years Senator Kenyon was a judge'of the Eleventh judicial district of Iowa. - As a lawyer, he stands high in his profession. - He has made % deep study of human relationships, particularly as to capital and labor, and education and the social welfare. of agriculture as a basic industry and las sought the solution ending periods of unemployment. With these attainments, and with the added abil- ity to defend his convictions, Mr, Kenyon has 'been a sturdy, worthy member of the senate. ’1‘}here will be horest regret that his influence will be with- He is greatly interested in the promotion - S S S s S S St i S USRS SO I B0 SR S IS s 7 —— 120 miles. onée that far away anyhow.

The Shapes of Eggs. An expert recently entertained the Zoological society of London with a mathematical discussion-of the differ- ences in the shape of eggs. A few eges, like those of the owl and the tortolse, are spherical or nearly so; a few, like the grebe's or the cormor- ant's are_€lliptical,- with symmetrical ends; the great majority, like the hen’s, ave ovoid, or blunter at one end than at_the other. ‘The heus cggs are always Jaid vlunt end. foremost. Eggs which are the most unsymmetrical-are also eggs of large size relatirely to.the parent birds. The yolks of eggs are spherical, whatever the form of the entire egg may be. This is shown to-be due to their being enclosed in a fluid, the “white,” which makes the pressure everywhere on the syrface of the yolk practically constant, T gl AT S0 ’395 F.0.8.
