Start Something, Mayor!
It was many weeks ago that the telephone company noti-
fied the city commissioners it wanted to apply for a rate in-
crease.
The commissioners were asked for a conference at which
the telephone company could’present its "figures.”
A date was set in January. The telephone company asked
delay.
The conference was postponed until the middle of Febru-
ary, which has come and gone.
If the telephone company has changed its mind about
pressing the rate gouge attempt, it’s high time for the city
to start pressing the service question.
Mayor Cockrell has said he is satisfied with present rates
and dissatisfied with the inability of hundreds to get tele-
phones.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.—For-
mation of tbe greatest shipping
corporation ever attempted in thia
country is suspended pending ac-
tion by congress oa President
Harding’s ship subsidy plan, it was
learned today. High lights in the
big merger plan are:
\An alliance of all large steam-
ship companies on the Pacifie
coast; control of the alliance by
the director of the individual com-
panies; the later merging of all
these companies into a $30,000,-
England's Free Gold
Sir Robert Home, British chancellor of the exchequer,
announces the British government intends to establish a
free gold market in London at the earliest date possible.
That means Great Britain is now planning to redeem her
paper money in gold and to allow uninterrupted exportation
of the yellow metal. That is to say, the end of England’s
financial troubles is in sight
This is the most important announcement that could
come from Europe. London is Europe’s money center. Sta-
bility in London gives confidence to every other frans-At-
lantic country. ‘The rest of Europe must remain in financial
uncertainty until England’s security is fully attested. Only
by returning to the gold standard can the British satisfy
their neighbors that the turning point in post-war rehabili-
tation has been reached.
Too much praise cannot be given Great Britain for the
sacrifices of the past seven and one-half years that have
made Sir Robert Horne’s announcement possible. Immedi-
ately the war broke out, the British government increased
taxation, and refused to depend upon the will-o’-the-wisp
of possible war indemnities to meet the war’s cost. Taxation
thruout the war, and during the succeeding days of peace,
has been unprecedently high in Great Britain, and has been
borne with by the British people without complaint The
Nothing Is Impossible
Could you keep a fire burning under water? It has just
been done, 50 feet under the surface of New York harbor.
Near Staten Island, a 86-inch steel water pipe on the
floor of the ocean was smashed by a dredge. It had to be
cut away.
Divers came up out of the muddy depths and reported
that the water immediately extinguished their steel-cutting
acetylene torches.
But an “underwater fire chisel” has been developed by
a company that salvages submarine wrecks. This chisel
was brought into play. As it burns, it generates a gas which
forces back the water on all sides, leaving an open or hol-
low space for the flame
That is scientific magic.
If the inventor had lived 500. years ago, his exhibition
would have made even kings kneel to him in superstitious
terror.
Archimedes, who discovered the principle of the fulcrum,
said he could move the earth if some one gave him a ful-
crum, a long enough lever and something away from the
earth to stand on.
Nothing was impossible, to Archimedes.
Yet, if he’d been asked to weigh the earth, he probably
would have said it couldn’t be done unless he had a big
enough pair of scales and a star to rest them on.

Methusaleh and Uncle Joe
Methuselah was younger when he died than two mem-
bers of Uncle Sam’s congress still, alive—“Uncle Joe" Can-
non, of Danville, III., and Major C. M. Stedman, of Greens-
boro, N. C., late of the Confederate army.
At least that is what Moses B. Cotsworth, F. G. S., of
New Westminster, British Columbia, told the House Judi-
ciary Committee the other day while advocating a revision
of the present calendar.
Cannon was borne May 7, 1886, and will be 86 his next
birthday. Stedman was born Jan. 24, 1841, and has con-
sequently just turned 81.
Cotsworth knows, of course, that the Bible says Methu-
selah lived to be 969 years old, but, Cotsworth says that
before the deluge the "years" of the Bible were only cycles
of the moon, that is 29 1-2 days each.
And, if you take that and figure it up, as Cotsworth has,
Methuselah died when he was 81 and Major Stedman now
has it on him by nearly a month.
Cannon thus has Methuselah beaten by four yean and a
half.
The weak point in Cotsworth’s theory seems to be that
the Bible says (Gen. v. 21.) that Methuselah’s father,
Enoch, was 65 yean old when Methuselah was borne which,
according to the Cotsworth figures, would make Enoch a
parent at the age of five modern yean.
