A e gy - - CITY SHOULD BE BEAUTY SPOT Traveler Singles Out Atlanta, Georgia, as ldeal Residence Town, for [ Variety of Reasons. The importance of insisting upon tmaking our clty a cleaner, more attrac- tive city and one of which we may be proud, was brought home to the Iwriter while :attending a national advertising convention at Atlanta, Ga. Aftér making a tour of the residence and suburban districts, well as the downtown business portion of Atlantz, I was very favorably impressed. 3 was quite evident that the 1zens there are making every effort to have their city known, not only as a pro- gressive and up-to-date center, but as one of the beauty spots of the South as well. In our own Kansas City should we not take more seriously the sugges- tions of a just and successful news- paper and give more thought and at- tention to the cleaning up, painting and beautifying of our downtown dis- tricts? To my ming, the present is the critlcal period in the life of our great city, and we sheuld be careful not to allow our interest in its financial welfare to ovesshadow our desire to be known in the future as the city beautiful. * £ is one of the biggest fac- but before we can take advantage of that means we must get our business, or our com- munity, in such a condition that we are justified in offeving it to the public, —Kansas City Star.

Ask Much of Inventor. The helicopter, a wmachine capable of vertienl flight, with which British inventors have already attained par- tinl success, has caused plans to be made by the government for a $200,- 000 competition open to the world for a further improved design. The con- ditions, which if met would make the helicopter practical and revolutionize the science of flying are: It must be capable of rising to a height of 2,000 one man and one hour's fuel supply. 1t must be able to remain stationary over a ground object for a halt hour in a wind up to 20 miles an hour.

Animals Blush. Poets have for ages-regarded the blush as a thing of beauty in the gentle sex; but, after all, it is only a rush of blood to the face, caused by modesty or some other emotion. An- imals blush, too, we are told, but through fear. Horses blush in their eurs, especially the left one. When a horse is frightened his left ear will be found to be very much swollen. This is also the case with rabbits. Cows and similar animals blush just above the hoof while the dog uses his tall for this purpose. When a dog is ! frightened his tail hangs limp, as he has lost all control over-it. Even in- sccts are said to blush. They do it in their antennue, or feelers. Editorials First—News Next.

A wealth of significance {s stored up In the word “Amen.” Amen was one of the oldest deities of the Ancient Egyptians, and one of their chief gods. His emblem was a man wearing a red crown, surmount- ed by the disk of the sunp, in token of his dominion over both the eurth and the heavens. His name meant “hidden” or “con- cealed,” while one of his titles was “Amen-ka-mut-f,” the husband of his mother, thus signifying that the qe- ity in question was at the time the oldest and the youngest of created beings. In the Hebrew language “Amen” signifies strength or trustworthiness— the “God of Truth” referred to in Isaiah being literally the “God of Awen.” In using the word at the end of our creeds and prayers, therefore, we not only exclaim “So be it!"— which s the generally accepted mean- Ing ‘of the term—but afiirm the truth of what has been recited. =l|||IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIII|IIIIIIIIII|||H|lIIllIlIlIlIIilllllIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIII"" FORDSON Our Slogan A FORDSON ON EVERY FARM C.

He selected two promising young mice and set them up in business in a minia- ture tread mill, where they were to earn their board and keep by the manufacture of sewing silk. For more than a year the mice Kept their little factory going on a day and night shift. The ingenious thread mill was so con- structed that each mouse was enabled to twist, twine and reel on an average of from 100 to 200 threads a day. Women doing the same work were paid a penny a hank, consequently cach mouse netted a saving of six shillings per annum for the owner of the tiny threadmill.
