VETS TO DISCUSS CARE OF ORPHANS SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1.—How to care for from 250,000 to 500,000 orphans of the World War is the problem the American Legion will consider at its National Convention in San Francisco, Oct. 16-19. Tentative plans for this project, which experts believe will be as difficult as that of relief for disabled veterans were considered at a recent meeting of the Legion's war orphans committee in Indianapolis. While definite statistics are not available, it is estimated that the greatest number who must receive assistance of some kind from municipalities, counties, states, the federal government or the Legion will be 500,000 children. The committee will recommend the building of a number of national homes in various parts of the country for dependent children of Legion members and service men not members of the Legion who died before May 1, 1919. In addition to the national homes a supplementary system will be inaugurated whereby dependent children can be placed with foster parents after careful investigation. The welfare of the children will be guarded by local legion posts after they have been placed in private homes, according to the committee. The committee will ask the national gathering for authority to accept gifts of suitable buildings, money and sites. A number of offers have already been made to the legion of land and money. Among them is 338 acres of land and $125,000 offered by Dan Dabney of Independence, Kan., and the Kansas Department of the Legion. Another offer has come from George L. Berry, President of the International Printing Pressmen's Union, former National Vice-Commander of the Legion, who has asked the organization to accept 200 acres of Tennessee land, valued at $20,000. The committee's decision was reached after it had heard the testimony of many experts in child welfare. DAY IN SUBWAY GOOD EXERCISE PARIS, Oct. 1.—Take a holiday in the subway, suggests a writer for the Paris "Presse" to the many unfortunate Parisians who are obliged to remain in the city during the summer heat. The subterranean regions, called the "Metro" in these parts, are almost as cool as any seaside resort, if not quite so airy. For the price of six sous, or two cents, one can travel fifty-four miles by following connections carefully. The scenery may be a bit monotonous, he agrees, but one can get plenty of good exercise by traveling up and down the stairs and jumping on moving cars. T.-B.

PLANS RATTLESNAKE FARM BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Oct. 1. — Homer Ayers is thinking of starting a rattlesnake farm, following his capture of a four-foot rattler near here. An Indianapolis medical company pays $25 an ounce for the poisonous fluid from the snake. The fluid can be drawn off without hurting the reptile and more accumulates soon, according to Ayres. About one ounce accumulates at one time. FORMULA FOR HOME-MADE CEMENT An effective cement for many substances can easily be made by soaking one part of glue in an equal quantity of water, says Popular Science Monthly in its October issue. The glue is removed before it has lost its primitive form, and the swollen mass is then dissolved in one part of linseed oil with the aid of heat until a jelly is formed. This joins wood tightly and is practically waterproof. Johnson. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Golden were guests of Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Medlands at Hyde Park on Sunday.
