1 PAGE EIGHT | THE BEMIDJI DALY PIONEER WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCT. 25, 1922 LLOYD GEORGE ASSERTS BRITAIN MUST PAY ALL HER DEBT TO AMERICA «(Continuea from Page 1) + to jointiwith the South American and Central American governments in a vast disarmament treaty which would be placed before the nations of Eu- rope as an example of what may be accomplished toward world-wide dis- armament. In view of the national hesitancy of the government to cut down its land ‘forces until some assurance is tlven of European .reduction, the probable course, it is considered here would be a tentative agreement with South America based on Europe’s acceptance of a general conference. This government may decide to keep “hands off” of the European situation for some time yet. There are indications, however, that should the American government make some such a move as the calling of a world economic conference, it will insist on means for limiting the huge military establishments of Europe as a pre- limnary to any agreement for relief of the economic situation, WOMEN SEEKING HIGH upkeep, gasoline and tires, not to mention the increased comfort and convenience from the roads. Marked improvementg in all roads in Minnesota during recent years is credited to the road authorities. The advantages of good roads are be- —_— coming appreciated.

Smyrna, recently captured by, the fTurks, Is both old and famous. It is the purported birthplace of Croesus and “claims to be the birthplace of Homer. It was a city long before the drys of Alexander, the Great, who re. bullt it where it now stands, as“he (saw -its strategic position as an ex- /treme’ western port for eastern mar- kets. In 23 A. D. Rome selected Smyrna from among many rivals_for site of the great temple to be dedi- cated to the emperor. This anclent city figureg prominent- 1y in connectlon with early church his- tory, observes the Detroit News. If| ts but 50 miles from Ephesus, where the rulns of that city with its famous temple are still to be seen. Smyrna \tself is supposed to have been for some time the home of the apostle St. John, whese disciple, Polycarp, after- ward. head of the Smyrna church, was burned at the stake about 155 A. D. His tomb is still the outstanding sight of the city and is on the crest of the hill near the place of his martyrdom. Almost within sight of Polycarp's -tomb, to the south, lies the Isle. of Patmos, to whigh St. John was ban- ished, and where the Book of Reve- t says a consular report to the United States Department of Commerce, “ox { carts not long ago were the only means of communication. Peasants and small village functionaries, who formerly looked upon the auto with marked dis- favor, have changed their attitude and view it as a sign of their country’s prosperity, .and are now doing their part in keeping the roads in some kind of order.” Three thousand two hun- dred and thirty passepger cars and 708 motor trucks were brought to Sweden from forelzn countries during the first ‘six months of 1922, as compared with 2,634 cars and 548 trucks for the cor- respondinz six months of 1921y Tarantula Commits Suicide. A. S. Lanier tells of his esperiences with a tarantula he had captured, says the Adventuge Magazine. “Placing the tarantula in a,bottle, T started walking toward my dfiice, hold- ing the. bottle in front of me and watching him. After about four at- tempts to climb the sides of the bottle he either threw himself or fell on his back. I stopped walking and, holding the bottle where the bright sunlight “would strike full upon him, I saw a thick milky looking substance coming from his mouth. e-then raised his two front ‘legs’ -that are located di- rectly in front of his head, and pro- ceeded to dip his ‘fangs’ up and down, not sideways like other spiders, into Powder to Lay Road Dust. Calcium chloride, a chemical powder, 1s being used to lay the dust on the atretches of the Prince of Wales high- way between Brockville and Ottawa. The experiment is being carried out by the department of highway§ with a view of determining the relative values of the chemical and of oil fo; this purpose, and twd stretches ol roadway, at Spencerville and Mano- tick respectively, ‘are- being treated. The chemical absorbs and retains moisture and forms a coating over the surface of the road. Its cheapness as opposed to,an il treatment is said to be considerable and as both treat- ments ‘haye to be repeated frequentiy the ‘department hopes to effect a ma- terial saving. HORNET..

Formerly the de- partment was housed in a group of ,buildings surrounding a courtyard near Charing Cross. It derived its name, Scotland Yard, from a palace assigned from thegtime of Edgar to Henry III, as the residence of the Scottish kings when they visited in London. The present head is Sir Ed- ward Henry, comamissioner. The chief is appointed by the crown upon rec- ommendation of the home secretary. The yearly cost of Scotland Yard, ac- cording to’ the latest published sta- tistics, -is $15,000,000. Sir Henry is the originator of the system of finger- print as identification, which is rap- idly superseding the Bertillon system in all countries. R 7 i [ Ei» i ! | 3 L f Rigs i ) 5 - ¥, “dF. 4, .
