LINK IX HKiinV VY TO BE COMPLETED Funds Required to Ituild Alligator ..Township .Selection in Chester, liehl Are Ton-owed. The completion of the WashingtonAtlanta highway. which passes through South Carotin*. i? assnnd before the msetiag or :hc American F.oad congress in itlant i XotOT.l.er 9. For some time the road has been held up in the Alligator township of Chesterfield, because the $35,000 in bonds that had been issued could not be 60ld on account of the effect of the European war. The demand for its completion, however, has been so persistent and (general that an effort which has proved successful was made to borrow the money. Commissioner Watson announced yesterday th^t sufficient monev had beet, borrowed and that work on the highway in Chesterfield county would bo resumed Monday. When this strip uf tae read is completed the highway wi'.i Iv ready lor use from Washington to Atlanta ltd will a'Tord an cvvrtrnty to those coming to the msn'n? in At lanta in November to drive, through the country. Cause of Borealis. Some verjr interesting recent researches by Stormer and Kirkeland on 'v the 4jU?ora Borealis render it probable that this phenomenon is due to corpuscular radiation proceeding from the sun to the earth. These corpuscles are doubtless electrons which are known to have great penetrative power. It Is interesting to notice that these observations furnish a means to evaluate the actual degree to which the space In the solar system is a ^^vacuum. It may be expressed by sayit la aa much rarer than the most rarlfled vacuum yet produced experimentally aB this latter Is rarer than the ordinary atmosphere. The density of this interstellar vacuum var ries within the limits of the solar system with its distance from the sun. Mme. Nordlca's Wisdom. Lillian Nordica once summed up the secret of success in these words: "Nothing comes to me but through work and perseverance. I work when I do not want to. It takes work and patience to become an artist. It cannot be brought about in a day. To me. I will say frankly, all things come slowly and through toil. Ambition is a fearful master and tyrant, but I would not exchange it for another.' She tells there* the truth concerning all real and continued success. A nan sometimes reaches a pinnacle by what seems chance and no efFort of his own. but he cannot remain there without labor. Electricity Cheap In Japan. EJectricity is cheap In Japan and the use of the current is becoming *erv general. LANCASTER CITIZEN WHITES NE>V HYMN Designed to \toid Objections Raised to "11} Country, "lis of Thee."* James H.
