Here are a few essentials for a good camp site that may help you over the rough spots. 1. Pure water, should be the first thought. 2. Wood that burns well. In cold weather there should be either an abundance of either sound downwooi or some standing hardwood trees that are !not too bug for easy Jelling. However, always select camp wood from trees that are apparently dead or in poor health. Good growing timber is needed for restocking the forest lands, and to destroy them carelessly disrupts the Work of conservation, l ownwood and stumps usually supply ample material for the campfire. 3. An open spot, level enough for pitching the tent and making a place for the campfire, but elevated above its surroundings so as to have good natural drainage. It must be well above any chance overflow from sudden rise of a neighboring stream. Observe the previous flood marks. 4. Straight poles for the tent, or or trees convenient for attaching the ridge rope. 5. Security against the spread of fire. Be sure your own campfire does not become the cause of a serious forest firte. r 6. Exposure to direct sunlight during part of the day, especially during the early morning hours. 7. In summer, exposure to whatever breezes may blow; in cold weather, protection against the prevailing wind. Water, wood and good drainage may be all you need for a 'one-night stand' but the other points, too, should be considered when selecting the site for a fixed camp. liaison and Earth's Weight To a small extent, the weight of the earth Is increased by the fall of meteors. Young estimates the number of meteorites that enter the atmosphere dally at from 15,000,000 to 20,000,000, and the annual to^al weight at 5,000 to 7,000 tons.

H.--This staid old New England village, situated at 'the foothills of the White mountains, proudly boasts that It has only eight voters, yet it has three selectmen and continues the time-honored form of regular town meetings and elections. Windsor, which covers a space of nearly fifteen square miles, has but seven occupied buildings and only one public building, the "town hall," a oneroom, weather-beaten, shingled old edifice, which has been a landmark for nearly a century. The residents, mostly people whose ancestors founded the town 200 years ago, are enthusiastic about town affairs, even though the three selectmen, chosen from among the eight voters, carry the burden of several community positions on their rugged shoulders. Radios But No Telephones. Prosperous and happy country people who make their living by farming, each and every family in the town Is equipped with a radio; every family except one has an' automobile, and every family except one has a dog. Telephones,^ electric lights and gas, however, are unknown. The little village reposes 1,200 feet above sea level, nestled in the midst of Lightning and Windsor mountains, about five miles from Hillsboro. Lester Chapman, a lifelong resident of the town, is the chairman of the board of selectmen, town constable, forest fire warden, highway supervisor and trustee of public funds. Lester is the proud possessor of the only team of horses in the town, Pat and Mike, a handsome chestnut pair. Mrs. Chapman is town treasurer and chairman of the school committee. A daughter, Mary, who is in the eighth grade, and a son, Herman, who Is in the seventh grade, attend the Hillsboro lower village school. They are the only school children in Windsor and are provided free transportation to and from school by the town authorities. Son Holds High Hopes. Charles Nelson, the second selectman, also is the town clerk, deputy fire warden, town postman and a member of the school committee. Mrs. Nelson also is prominent in town affairs. Stanley, their eighteen-yearold son, is a sophomore at the University of New Hampshire and he Intends to come back on the farm and follow in his dad's footsteps. He has aspirations of being selectman some day. The only other member of the Nelson family Is the pet alredale, Bat. Clarence Jones, a former Boston restaurant chef, Is the thifd selectman and trustee of the cemetery fund. Charles Harrison Russell, eightyfour- year-old tax collector, has been on the job for the last twelve years. Political parties are taboo in this village, except during a national election. Cleveland Radio Owners Guilty of Breaking Law Cleveland, Ohio. -- Thousands of Cleveland radio owners are violating the law every day and are liable to fines of $10 to $100 for every day's violation, it was revealed here when a city engineer pointed out an obscure section of the municipal code. The code requires that anyone Meeting an outside aerial must take out a permit costing 50 cents. Each day an aerial remains up without a permit constitutes a separate offense, the ordinance provides. The number of permits taken out has been negligible. Nothing drastic will be done about it and nobody Is likely to be put In Jail, the city officials indicated.

Name "Taffy** Traced to Javanese Word for RUM The American word taffy and the British word toffee, foi candy made of molasses, originate from the Javanese word for rum: tape, or tafe, distilled from molasses. Very often the homebound cargoes of the old-time sailing ships trading in the South seas were molasses from Java. The word came to the Philippines with the Indonesian colonies from Asia that had long Inhabited the mountains of northern Luzon; these people, however, do not make rum, but ferment wine from rice and give It the Javanese name for rum. Some tribes call the wine tapuy, some tapel, both obvious variations from the original tape. Another variation is the name of the wine from sugar cane Juice, basl. When the British freebooter. Captain Anson, conveyed a prize be had taken, the silver-laden Spanish galleon Cabadonga, around Luzon toward Macao, he sent ashore for water and the islanders gave his men copious drinks of, bashl that had lightning effect. Returning to ship, the men's tongues were thick, and In explaining their condition to Anson they said they had been enjoying a few cups of bashl; Captain Anson charted his channel and named It Bashl channel, and the Islands, really the Babuyan group, he called Bashi's Islands.
