Down in I the Great Smokies they are talking of , naming a 6,000â€"foot peak Sequoyah in | honor of an elghteenth-century Indian tartht, a Cherokee; and only a short | time ago a whole range in Antarctica was named by Admiral Byrd for one of his backers, John D. Rockefeller, Jr. The Old World has many mounâ€" tains named for men and in it an Engâ€" lish name will always be the highest; for the loftiest peak in all the world bears the name of a rather modest English surveyor and geographerâ€"Sir George Everestâ€"who made a survey of many Himalayan peaks in 1841 and was the first accurately to fix the postâ€" tion of Mount Everest and to gauge its height. So Mount Everest is his everlasting monumentâ€"and what a monument! It reaches up into space more than five miles above sea level, The naming of mountains after perâ€" sons goes back even to the legendary. Do we not find North Africa‘s highest mountain named Atlas after the glant who bears upon his ample shoulders the burden of our earth? Are not the Pillarg of Herculesâ€"the Rock of Gibâ€" raltar and Mount Ayela on the oppoâ€" gite side of the straitsâ€"named for anâ€" other mighty legendary hero who shouldered out the hills and let the broad Atlantic sweep into the land? New Hampshire, it is believed, leads all other American States in the numâ€" ber of mountains named for famous persons. Though her mountains are not such aweâ€"inspiring ambassadors to heaven as are countless other peaks named for mortals, she makes up in numbers and in the dignity of her names what she lacks in altitude; for New Hampshire is the proud possessor of the Presidential Range. The Pacific Coast evidently wanted its own mountain memorial to certain founders of the Republic. Hence it is that in the Cascade Range in Washâ€" ington we find also a Mount Adams, while her southern neighobr, Oregon, has dedicated two great peaks to Washington and Jefferson. People in Washington have had a long dispute over one of their most famous peaks.

Seattle insists upon honoring the name of Captain Rainier rather than that of Tacoma, a rival city. Rainier‘s name, too, has been given to a great national park. Oregon honors the name of an Engâ€" lishman with its loveliest mountain. Mount Hood raises its Foary head high above the surrounding country and looks down from the height of 11,000 feet upon the Columbia River, This mountain was first discovered by white men in 1792. No one knows just which member of Vancouver‘s exâ€" pedition first saw it and gave it a name in honor of Admiral Samuel Hood of his Majesty‘s Navy. Although an English surveyor had the loftiest mountain in the world. named for him, an American Presiâ€" dent was honored by having the peak that rises highest above the surroundâ€" ing country named in his honor, Everâ€" est has many lesser brothers hemâ€" ming it in. Mount McKinley, in Alasâ€" ka, named in 1896 in honor of William McKinley, rises to a greater height above the surrounding country than any other mountain in the world. ° It \pierces the sky at a height of more than 20,000 feet. In the Andes whoever named the peaks seemed content almost to let mortals alone. Many are named for saints but we find a fine 17,000â€"foot mountain named in honor of a Spanish poet who was born 200 years before Columbus began his first voyage.

Why the Farmer Needs the Rain The farmer needs the rain, you know; It helps him quite a lot; It saves his fruit and grain and crops And other things he‘s got.

Even our primary conceptions of moral duty depend for their vigor and clearness upon our practical attitude toward â€" duty. Nothing so clears them as doing what we know to be right and eschewing what we know to be wrong. That brings us to a solidity and simplicity of conviction which we can reach neither by observing men‘s experience nor by lcgical reasonings. It keeps us in touch with reality, and dissipates the vapors which otherâ€" wise becloud the mind. Other processes may bring us to conclusions which we cannot deny, but which have no power over our lives; this gives us conclusions which act upon us as motives and helps to farther right action. For, as George Eliot says, the finest reâ€" ward of doing right is the power to go forward to right action which more difficult.

But if you are too fat, and wart to reduce, it‘s a good principle to adopt. d For it has now been proved by science that the emotions of anger and fear burn up fat. So every time you lose your temper you are helping to combat that middleâ€"aged spread. And if you inspire sufficient terror in the object of your wrath, you are helping him to retain a slim and shapely figure as well. ShortTemper Q.â€"â€"e Way of Reducing That Surplus So losing your temper may be good for youâ€"and just as good for other people. The shortâ€"tempered wife who flares up on the slightest provocation, and whose husband trembles at her words, is, all unconsciously, the guardâ€" lan of the family health. Even a wet holiday, if it frays temâ€" pers sufficiently, may thus be a bealthy holiday. And the small boy whose tricks make grownâ€"ups stutter and shake with rage may be a public beneâ€" factor. _ Butâ€"be careful!l _ Temper does sometimes get people into awkâ€" ward scrapes, and the plea that you‘re reducing, or helping others to reduce, may not always be aecepted.
