gieatest piece of engineering I have
ever seen is the locks in the Panama

Panama City while here and was very
much impressed with the quaint
buildings. We proceeded up the coast,

had nothing of interest to happen.
First was an athletic meet in which
the 8th Division carried off the tug-Oi-wr

been defeated. The other was the
second time we have stopped at sea to

promised us a pleasant stay but they
went far beyond that. We next made
San Pedro, where we had to take on
more black diamonds. While coaling

navy dance, which was held in fine

been able to figure out if it was the

It may be mentioned, too, tnat only
one Instance is on record where a flea
was found on a reptile. This was on a
brown snake which was captured near
Perth, in West Australia, and which
was probably derived from some small
mammal devoured by the snake. The
flea was firmly fixed between the scaly
plates of the reptile.
The history of the flea would seem
to go back many centuries, but the
only fossil remains of a flea that have
so far been found is a single Insect in
a bit of Baltic amber. The flea is ad admirably

on many important cases that con concern

Briefly, Professor Larson's discovery
Indicates that a similarity of finger
prints among members of a family Is
sufficiently marked to enable scientists
to trace family groups and determine
positively whether a given individual
is really a member of the family to
which he claims relationship.
The importance of the discovery In
probate cases such as the Slinsby case
is obvious.
Should Dr. Larson's new discovery
be accepted by law and science, the
Slingsby decision may be reversed, as
well as many other analogous cases.
Dr. Larson's investigations began in
1913 at the Boston university.
"Since that time I have examined
prints of members of approximately
100 families," he said, ''and I am satis satisfied
fied satisfied in my own mind that such a
means of identification Is possible. I

Big Devilfish a Victim of the Colonel's
Love of Sport, Either on
Sea or Land.
The fame of the late Col. Theodore
Roosevelt as a big-game hunter Is well
known, but he was equally as adept at
killing big fish of the sea, according to
Russell J. Coles, noted big-flsh killer.
Attracted by one of Coles articles
about killing the devilfish, the colonel
appealed to him for Instruction In the
art. After taking several land lessons,
using a rpear with which he saw an
African kill a lion, he finally became
expert, and Mr. Coles formed a party
to hunt the devilfish off the coast of
Florida, in Punta Gorda, March 25,
1917. There the colonel killed his first
devilfish, hitting the huge creature,
which weighed many tons, Just two
Inches from the spot indicated on a
drawing by Coles, and driving the
6pear two feet four inches through the
heaviest and boniest structure of the
fish. The colonel was standing on the
cab of a small boat traveling nine miles
an hour, and the fish was coming to toward
ward toward the boat at the rate of 15 or 18
miles an hour, swimming about four
or six feet under water. Had the
colonel missed his aim the fish would
have been able, with one of its side
fins, to upset the boat and drown the
fishermen. An hour after his first
catch the colonel killed a second devil devilfish,
fish, devilfish, which was the second largest
devilfish ever killed. Mr. Coles Is a
scientist who has hunted devilfish for
more than 20 years.

rpHE successful farmer raises bigger crops
and cuts down costs by investment in
Good prices for the farmer's crops en encourage
courage encourage new investment, more production
and greater prosperity.
But the success of agriculture depends
on the growth of railroads the modern
beasts of burden that haul the crops to the
world's markets.
The railroads like farms increase their
output and cut down unit costs by the
constant investment of new capital.
With fair prices for the wrork they do,
the railroads are able to attract new capi capital
tal capital for expanding their facilities.
Rates high enough to yield a fair return
will insure railroad growth, and prevent
costly traffic congestion which invariably
results in poorer service at higher cost.
National wealth can increase only as
our railroads grow.
Poor railroad service is dear at any price.
No growing country can long pay the price
of inadequate transportation facilities.
