The fisher. men thereafter ceased to cut them adrift, but brought them in to a fertilizer plant where they are dried in the wind and sun and ground up for fertilizer, FIGURE KING WAS DULL AT SCHOOL, Expelled for' Weakness in Arithmetic--Now Has New Method of Calculation Toronto, Ont.,, Oct. 16. -- 8. J. Kreiger, styled "King of Logar- ithms" by a former president of Sorbornne Univertiy of Paris, was literally kicked out of school at Hamburg, Germany, be- cause of dullness in Arithmetic, he stated in an interview here recent- ly. Four years ago, Mr. Kreiger, who ia 25 years old, developed a formu- la by the use of which he claims the average 10-year old child can accomplish the most difficult caleu- lations. Not only does he claim to have perfected this system of calcula tion, which is applicable to all branches of mathematics, but a short time ago discovered a meth- od of determining whether or not a figure is a prime figure. He said he believes his latest discovery has solved what mathematicians have been working on for more than 200 years, Beats 'Em All "They have been working on log- arithms for hundreds of years, and still they are not finished," Mr. Krelger said. "It takes a learned professor a lifetime to add two logarithms to a table, and I can do it in two minutes. My system would make all the logarithm tab- les useless, as no one would need them." Armed with as tub of a peneil TL] { Kreiger gave a mystifying demon stration of his prowess with figur- es during the course of an inter view. "You were born June 3, 1904? Oh, yes, that was on a Friday, and up to the period of the last celebra- tion your birth you had lived 756, 864,000 seconds," Not only did he thus compute the age of the reporter in a manner of four seconds, but be in actual test found the square of 18,446,744, 073,709,651,616 to be 840,282,- 366,920,938,463,463,463,374,607- 431,768,311,456 in a matter of two Ruth Carnegie, Beth Archer, Wil- Middleton, Drawing, 2nd Class -- Violet Read, Mary Stone, Clarence Beare, Fred Middleton, Patricia Jackson, Helen Anderson, Drawing, 3rd Class--Philip Orde, '| Kathleen Carnegie, Sam Naple, Harold Hall, Norma Hooey, Billy Cawker, Drawing, 4th Class--Bob Woods, Marion Tinsley, Model, Farm Gate Brooks, Nail Box--Mary Davidson, Bird House--Butler Walker John Farmer, Barred Rock Cockerel--Patricia ~ Harry son, Garnet Weir, Barred Rock Pullet -- Patrice Jackson, Garent Weir, Jean Moase, Mary Davidson, Barred Rock Trio--Mary David- son, Garent Weir, White Leghorn Trio -- Doris Suddard, Feathered Pets -- Bryce Moase, Jean Moase, Garnet Weir, Furred Pets-- Harry Carnegie, Mary Davidson, Frank Scott, Har- old Hall, Ellen Ploughmian, Bo!
