Color varies greatly. The chief uses to which a thor oughbred is put are in the field of sports—racing, polo, and hunting. Usually it is much higher strung than a common horse and therefore more easily spoiled. Because of the long struggle to improve the Arab for speed, faults in conformation are frequently found in thoroughbreds.

Williams, of Philadelphia, said re cently at the first American Con gress of Obstetrics and Gynacol- ogy. The maternal death rate in the United States is lower than ever be fore in history, but it is still “dis gracefully high” in view of the pres ent knowledge of medical men, Dr. Williams said.

You Can Whip Our First Household Lights The first electric light for house hold use was probably used by Prof. Moses Gerrish Farmer at 11 Pearl street, Salem, Mass. In 1859 he ar ranged a series of lamps in his parlor, the current for which was supplied by a wet cell battery. Electricity used successfully to light a residence was generated by an independent plant installed in the home of J. Hood Wright at Fort Washington, N. Y., before Decem ber of 1881.

Clements, anthropologist profes sor at the University of Oklahoma who has made a study of Indian culture, has disclosed. The Indian not only contributed chocolate to the white man, but he made a milk chocolate drink flavored with vanil la, a plant product native to Mex ico, Dr. Clements said. "We owe many vitamins in our diet to the Indian,” said the professor. Whites Work for Indians The island of Annette, of which Metlakatla is the principal town is believed to be the only territory in the United States where white men work for Indians. The island is oc cupied by Indians with the exception of 11 white persons employed by them. The latter include a police man, a doctor, a half dozen teach ers, a cannery superintendent and two ministers.
