The criminal forced entrance through
g window by the use of a Jimmy; his
fingerprints were found smeared all
ovtir doorknobs and window sills; but
he had worn gloves and the prints were
nsWeta as evidence.
Deep foot Impressions pointing to?
ward the factory were found on the
grounds surrounding the plant These
were traced to .the window where the
entrance had been forced.
The deep footprints Indicated that
the one who made them had been
carrying ? Wravy object, and ss he had
taten long steps, It showed he was a
tall.map. A chiropodist stationed at
a nearby army camp was called into
tha case and be made several casts of
tne footprints leading to thu factory.
Too results of the casts showed that
the criminal had worn a pointed-toed,
English last shoe, with a broad heel;
the tihoo had been recently half soled,
and that there were heel plates of a
foreign mak* on the heels. There was*
a marked pronatlon of the Internal lat?

fiat right f?ot
Who was this "John t>oeP with a
marked right foot, wearing polnted

apprehended within 48 hours and Is

In footprints the same ridge forma?
tion will bo found as In fingerprints,
bat footprints taken from the bare foot
are Only found occasionally, because
most people wear shoes. Shoe and
boot prints may at tiroes play an Im?
port snt part In the detection of crime,
because they reproduce the character?

Pedlatrists claim that determination
Is Indicated by the feet kept in a par?

lessnesa and hesitancy Is Indicated In
a swaying walk; while good health Is
shown by a brisk gait. Sick people
drag theft feet along the ground. .
In the examination of shoe or boot
prints we will be able to determine
the eiset type of the shoe worn. It
will also show heel plates, patches,
peg>, slftchos, e*tra nails, and where

All tnett marks present very stroDg
evidence that may lead*to the appre?

SlmplltTes Launchlngs.
A big steel csrgo boat was launched
successfully some weeks ago by the
throw of a slnglp electric switch, savs
eSf kafraVr or %\w m.o ft dge
and stuffed with rags at the first sign
of snow aud we slept under those con?
ditions.
In those days If anyone had prac?
ticed sleeping outdoors, even In sum?
mer weather, It would have caused a
sensation. "Cracked, I swan!" the old
fanners would have said.
The change caine gradually, presum
arly because the sons and daughters
of the old residents went to work In
the large centers where opened \vln
dows were, if not the rule, surely not
the exception, remarks n writer In tne
N?W York Evening Sun. Now the com?
plete change hits one feirly In the face
when he returns to the once airless
districts of early youth.
Night and day now the windows are
wide open and sometimes even doors
are never closed; no one thinks of liv?
ing without screens and mosquito net?
ting, even the poor in hollows and by
lanes. Tike families frequently eut out?
doors under the old apple tree, on red
and white table covers or oilcloth or a
bare scrubbed board. Like the omni?
present flivver that cnrrles the clerk
and his family to picnics along the
roadside, the outdoor-eating habit has
done wonders for the health and hap?
piness of all, particularly the country
folk.
Out-of-doors steoplnjr Is now well
nigh a habit Hardly a porch In that
country nowadays Is complete without
a khaki swing couch, a made-up cot or
one of the old time hard, haircloth
"?ofles" with pillows and a patchwork
qnllt or two, "oudy for the sleeper.
Most of these were hung with mosquito
net curtains, looped hi:ok by day.
Nowadays on these outdoor couches
are seen reclining in daytime the old
man of the family, lying at full length
with his bare feet toasting In the sun.
Twenty years ago he would have slept
In the darkened parier behind closed
shuttem; or, If very foolhardy, he
might have been caught by watchful
eyes of his family napping under the
old apple tree.
Yes, the country has come on I
Rut outdoor sleeping by rural chil?
dren lias not yet arrived. Here the
farmer's wife draws the line. It may
be all right for grand pap and herself
and husband, but she is not yet sure
about the night air for little lungs. So
children's cots are not -seen upon the?
porches. They still sleep within four
walls and a celling.
The city and large towns here come
to this airy regime through years of
propaganda In newspapers, In churches
and in social centers. The couutry ab?
sorbed it through newspapers and mag?
azine*.
But if there has been a notable
change In the attitude of farm and vil?
lage folk toward fre.ih air there has
been an even greater change In their
social life. The small town of twenty
years ago Is not the small town of to?
day. Then they had church sociables.
They may still have thein, but I do not
know where. There used to he buggy
rides and prayer meetings, and the
greatest dissipation of the younger vil?
lagers was "going walking," with a pos?
sible "sody" at the Corner drug store.
Booth Tarklngton depicts these rural
scenes truthfully, but Ms pointed view
Is now out of date.
The movies and "canned" music have
recreated village life. Even In those
families where there Is no automobile
life ts a far pleasanrer thing thai> It
was twenty years ago. The movies en?
tertain the whole family. And In the
evenings, when the movies fall, the av?
erage soda fountain draws net with
Ice-cream cones and candy alone hut
with a rollicking, Jazzing mechanical
player. The drug store has become
largely a refreshment parlor; It Is now
a social center. Youn& and old meet
there and strolling and loafing have
gone Into the discard.
The closing of saloons may have
helped, hut even before prohibition the
lilting notes of music boxes In Ice
cream parlors began to woo the vll

In keeping with modern methods, hie, Mr. Stewart reported. Tins re*
they have, at the Gihson, a system * Pm I states that over newspapers
whereby employees of the hotel are
furnished with Information about
what is going on In the house. It Is
advantageous for the employees to be
fully Informed, anyway, and It Is de?
sirable that they may he able to In?
telligently answer questions which
may be addressed to them by the
guests. Therefore, a bulletin is posted
at the headwalter's desk in each res?
taurant and at other places In the ho
ttd conveying general Information
which employees should have.

tables wearing badges.
"Who are those people with badges
on?" one of them asked the colored
w alter.
"Jess a minute, boss," replied the
waiter. "Ah'll fin' out foh you In jess

The waiter hustled over to the bul?

studied around uncertainly. There
wasn't another waiter in sight and the
dining room was all but deserted. He
gave the bulletin board a pained and
regretful glance. This Is what was

Diversity Among Students.
The Influence of personal ability or
mental habit on such scientific work
as making astronomical drawings has
been the subject of Interesting experi- [
ments by T. L. MacDonald at the Uni?
versity of Glasgow. A drawing of j
Mars by ArtonladI, a photograph of
the moon, and another picture were
submitted to sfx students, who were
requested to make copies hut were
given no suggestion as to what should
be visible or how it should be drawn.
The diversity of tho drawings pro?
duced was surprising and curious. Each
student showed special skill in noting
some one feature?either canals, lakes,
or gradations of shading?and the stu?
dent who best drew the canals saw
the smallest number of shadings. The
distinguishing characteristics of each
Individual persisted remarkably
through all his drawings. It Is con?
cluded that planetary astronomers
may be divided Into three classes??
distinguished by canal, spot and shade
sensitiveness?and that their drawings
should be subject to corresponding cor
: rections.
