OLD BLUE LAW HAS STUCK
All Effort, to Amend Famoua Statute
f Pennaylvanla Hav Thu, Far
Been Unavailing. 9j
Once more an effort Is to be mndo
to amend tha most famous of all
laws on the statute books of Penn
sylvania the venerable blue law, en
acted April 22, 1794.
It Is said that at every regular ses
sion of the legislature during the 125
years since that awful crimp was put
In Sunday conviviality, an attempt has
been made to repeal It entirely or to
amend It, Glrard writes In the Phila
delphia Press.
But that old law entitled "An act
for the prevention of vice and Im
morality and for other purposes," has
survived all the assaults of those who
would destroy It. -
A century and a qunrter of world
revolution, of tumbling thrones, of daz
zling Inventions and economic and so
clal changes rinds that statute nf 1704
as unbreakable and rigid as the eter
nal laws of the Modes and Perslnns.
Those old legislation bricks of 1794
regarded it as being vastly mora
wicked to shoot a rabbit on Sunday
thnn to drink a hot toddy.
One offender was tagged with a fine
of $2.1, the other a shilling and a half.
It was Impossible under a strict en
forcement of that lnw to operate a
cannl bout, a railroad train, a street
railway car, a cob or sell any com
modity from a loaf of bread to a pack
age of chewing gum.
Every seventh day the state of Penn
aylvanla was expected to freeze up
completely like a good bird dog when
he sees a quail.
WORLD MUST HAVE NITROGEN
Men of Science Preparing for the Tlma
When the Chilean Nitrate Flelda
Are Exhausted.
Farmers of Europe and Amerlcn
have been almost entirely dependent
for nearly a century upon the Chilean
nitrate fields, which have stood liter
ally between the world and starvation,
llehlnd a plateau S.(KK) feet above the
sea level and 20 miles from the Pa
cific coast, Is a dreary, parched, almost
rainless strip of land, where nature
has deposited millions of tons of nitro
gen In the form of nitrate of soda.
Not only the power to produce crops,
but also the power to wage war anil
to develop many essential Industries
depends upon nitrogen, liefore the
war the Herman chemist, Ostwnld,
wrote: "If a great war were to break
out between two great powers, one of
which were to prevent the export of
saltpeter from tho few ports of Chile,
It would thereby make It Impossible,
for the enemy to continue longer than
Its ammunition supply would last."
Germany hod accumulated (KKJ.OIIO
tons of Chilean saltpeter before the
war. It Is estimated thnt the Chilean
nitrate beds wljl bo exhausted some
time during the present century. Sci
entists and engineers, therefore, are
bending every effort to other means of
supply. Nitrogen Is now being recov
ered from the air by various processes
and lu several countries.

The Waiter' Mistake.
'The French, since Foch's victory,
are almost In danger of getting
swelled head." said Immigration Com
missioner Camlnettl of New York.
"And no wonder! The French cer
talnly displayed great military genius
In this war, and praises and compli
ments arc fulling on them from all
sldi-s.
"Ill a French restaurant the other
day I ordered a steak. Then as the
French waiter turned to go, I added:
" 'Well done, waiter.'
"The young mini, flushed with pleas
ure, drew himself up and saluted
smartly.
" 'Hut you Americans, monsieur,' he
sold, 'you Americans also covered your
selves with glory at Chateau Thierry
and the Hols fie Itelleau.'"
Lonely Telephone Station.
An Isolated telephone pay station Is
located at a camp on the shore of
Klchnrdson lake, one of the Itangi'ley

nearest station at Kumfnrd, on the
Maine Central railroad. The line runs
12 miles from the camp to the town
of Andover. where connection Is made
wllh switchboard In the office of the
Andover Telephone company, a sub
licensee of the New Knglnnd company.
From thnt town the lines extend IS
