“Ditching with dynamite" is a
labor-saving and time-saving way
of blasting ditches on timber land
where the. ground is very wet or
where the1* amount of work is too
small to justify using a machine.
The most economical size of ditch
to blast is one about three feet deep
and six feet wide on top, since in
larger and deeper ditches taw dirt
is thrown out per pound of pdwder
used. For a three-foot ditfch a pound
of dynamite will throw out abbut a
cubic yard of earth. ,.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.—Rutherford B. Hajes
was present of the United States when B. J. Cady
got his Job as guide to show people through the
U. 8. Capitol. That was Hl years ago. There were
oply three guides then. They counted fl a grtod'day
when there were a dozen people to show through
the nation’s business house.
Today, aged 71, Captain B. J. Cady does little ac-
tual guiding himself. He merely acts as “starter”
for his 20 guides, seeing that each gets his or
her share of the several thousand people from the
four ends of the earth who come to see America’s
Capitol every day.
And Captain Cady wouldn’t wouldn’t swap jobs
with anybody else on earth! One learns a liveable,
workable philosophy from rubbing shoulders with
the unapproachable one is not sure of himself and ,
shrouds iia oWn inferiority in a mantle of super-.
iority.
He has learned that the truly great are humble I
and human—that the grquch and the critic and 1

monument I do not remember the
exact wording bu^ the girt of the
inscription Is this: "Tb the metnory
of the people killed by automobiles
in New Yoilr during the last year."
And the number is as impressive as
the idea. The last time I saw it it
was around WOO.
I wish a similar monument could
be erected somewhere in this coun-
try with a record on it of the num-
ber of people killed by another
great American institution, though
I realise that It couldn’t be done
because the statistics would be Im-
possible to g^UUE as the killing in
this case is not Instantaneous.

ple who unquestionably overdo to

selves in a condition to be mowed

had’ picked
up, a tot of ideals and wise cracks he had memor-
ised from the movies and the talkies. As a one-
night-stand he was all right. The fool could dance
well. And he could eat soup noiselessly, consume
lettuce and tomato salad without pushing it onto
the tablecloth, and ppt spaghetti away artistically.
The fool had an accent, too, peculiar to his part of
shy »A.intry, and <♦ fssripated the ifirl like every-
thlng.
So the girl and the fool were married. It took
the girl about a week to discover all that the fool
knew; and to find out that he could not support
himself much lesi her? The girT got awfully tired
of hearing the same remarks over and over again,
the same smart talk, the same humor, the same
phrases. TJhe became very weary of hearing the
fool brag about the big things he was going to do.
“We can't livy on promises,” the girl said to the
fool. She said “We" because by that time there
was a baby—it costs as much nowadays to sup-
port a baby as it used to eost to support a family.
The girl became exceedingly exasperated at hav-
ing to send home for money to keep the baby ami
herself from starving to death. Finally, she lost all
patience—and all hope. She packed up what was
left of the things her father had bought her, took
the baby, quite the fool, and went home.
The fool was not to blame. He had simply been
expected to do something he could not do. The fool
did hla besf. True he'did not do much but he did
his best. He, too, suffered through the matrimonial
entanglement; he grew peaked in the face; he wore
frayed cuffs; he half-soled his shoes and his pants.
There was no criticism to be launched at the fool
for being a fool; that wus not his fault.
The blame was the girl’s. She had good sense.
She should have known a fool when she saw one.
