“in view
the more timid traveler.” All of
the one hundred and forty small
fires started by lightning in the
Park are now out, he reported,
and the Park is at the height of
its beauty.
Travel for this July was more
than double that/ of the same per-
iod two years ago when Olympic
was only a year old and the baby
park in the system, and shows an
increase of 40 per cent over that
for July, 1940.
, An outstanding attraction for
1 visitors during July were the pub-
‘lic picnic campgrounds located
throughout the Park along the
rivers and lakes. All campgrounds
received heavy use throughout the
. month.
Other activities in which visi-
tors participated
picnicking and camping were
fishing in the rivers, lakes and
streams, hiking over shaded
trails, photographing wild life
and mountain scenery and enjoy-
l
ing the beauty of the wildflowers.
Thousands of persons swam in
the two hot springs pools. Many
visitors rode horseback, while
others played» tennis and canoed
. on the lakes.
“I feel confident," Superinten-
dent Macy commented on the July
travel record, “that travel to
Olympic National Park will con-
,tinuc its steady growth and will
come to be as widely known and‘
used as our most popular national
parks.” Oother Park Service 01"-

There won’t be any playoff be—

fans. The Activians saw to that
Tuesday night by administering a
13 to 3 thrashing to Mobilgas
which hoisted the second half
pennant up beside the first halfl
title the clubmen already possess.|
Les Spilseth again had a shut—
out slip through his fingers in the
final inning when darkness andi
errors contrived to allow three'
his
superlative flinging. He had a.
narrow escape in the first frame,
however, retiring the side with
the bases full and none away.
Harvey Hillman walloped a.
home run to spur a four-run sec-
the scrap away. By Weilenman’s
triple with two aboard also fea-
tured the spurt.
A tight race for second place
between Skokomish, Rayonier and
the L. M. may be settled by final
games tonight and early next
,week, when the schedule closes.
Smith Helped Beat
‘Joint Return’ LawI
Washington, D. C. (Special)—‘
Declaring that the compelling .of
husbands and wifes to file jomt
income tax returns under any and
all circumstances would establish
a dangerous precedent, that it
would revive the old common law
fiction that the wife is a chattel
of the husband, and that it would
nullify the individual property
rights of the citizen under the
Washington 5 t at e community
property law, Congressman Mar-
tin F. Smith was among the mem—
bers of the House who fought the
mandatory provision in the reve-
,nue bill and succeeded in defeat-
'ing it by a decisive majority.
l
Congressman Smith also voted‘
against the closed rule whereby
the tax legislation was not open,
to amendment on the floor of the
House, pointing out that during
his entire nine years in Congress
he has always opposed a closed
rule, which he considers contrary
to the ,spirit of democratic insti—.
tutions. A separate vote on' the
mandatory joint income returns
was the only concession permitted
when the closed rule was adopted.

About this time each year the
bowling boys and girls begin to
get itchy to get things going in
their favorite sport, but at the
moment Alley Manager Al Fer-
rier can‘t give them any definite:
date upon which they can plan
to open their schedules.
The trouble is Al hasn’t been
able to get his alleys resurfaced
this summer, as required an-
nually under American Bowling l
Congress regulations. So many
new, alleys are being installed
in the Northwest that the ex—
perts are badly overworked and
just when they can get around
to assigning someone the week
it takes to give the Shelton
drives a going over no one can
tell.
Al has had his order in for a
resurfacing job for three months
and still can’t get action.

Some People See
Better 1n Dlmness
A condition of seeing which iSI
the very opposite of night-blind-
ness is found occasionally, re-
ports the Better Visionv Institute.
In night-blindness a person sees
satisfactorily in daylight, but has}
great difficulty in seeing in tWi-I
light. In a few rare cases re-
ported, some persons actually SCBI
far better in dim light than do
individuals with normal vision. I
One student who possessed this‘
remarkable night vision‘ w o u l d
take magazines and books to bed
and when‘the lights were turned’
out in the dormitory so that;
others could sleep, he would readi
an hour or more in the very dim‘
light entering the window from
the street lamp. However, warns
the Institute this condition Ofl
night vision is very rare, and thef
average person harms his eyes:
if he reads in insufficient light.’
2000 Eyes Lost In

ted States cause a loss of 2.000

Motion Pictures—-

Sight is not instantaneous andl
it takes the eye a bit of a second
to wipe out one picture before it;
is ready to receive another, saysl
This
lingering of pictures in the eye is,
known as persistence of Vision.
A flash of lightning may last
for only about one-hundred-,
thousandth of a second, but the
impression of the light persists
in the eye for at least a tenth of
a second, says the Institute. If
a bright spark at the end of a'
stick is rotated rapidly, the eye‘
sees a complete circle of light.
It is because of this persistence
of vision that modern motion
pictures are possible. Moving
pictures really never move while
they are thrown on the screen.
Consider a picture in which a per-
son is walking. Individual pic-
tures at the rate of 20 per sec-
ond are projected on the screen.
In each picture the person is in

the screen. The eye sees the
first picture for about only one-
twentieth of a second. Then while
this picture persists \in the eye
for another twentieth of a second,
the} screen is darkened by a shut—
ter in the projector before the
HEXt Picture is shown. The, eyes
see about 20 pigtures per second,
with a dark interval between each
picture. Every picture remains
perfectly still on the Screen. The
film is mOVed only in the dark
intervals when the shutter cuts‘

More for Defense
Under present economic con-
ditions dairy farmers are "on the
spot.” The government
couraging greater production of
dairy products to meet needs of
shipments to Great Britain and
other countries under the lease-
lend act.
An article published in the Eco-
nomic Information for Winconsin
Farmers is also applicable to Ma-
son, County Farmers.
“‘In planning their part in the
expansion of dairy production,
dairy farmers should keep two
things in mind. One is that af-
ter the war there may be a con-
siderable drop in prices. The ex-
tent of this drop in prices is such
that farmers should exercise ex-
treme care in making any con-
siderable expenditure for build-
ings, livestock, and equipment un-
less the expenditure results in
greater efficiency and lower cost
of production. Farmers should

Increased Use Of
Farm Machinery
Shown By Census.
New figures of the Census Bu-
reau on the use of automobiles,
trucks and tractors on American
farms provide the explanation of
earlier Census figures showing a
decline of 3,000,000 horses
mules in the past decade. On
825,126 farms in 24 states, the
Census bureau found, in 1940,
automobiles; 925,022
tractors, and 464,226 trucks. These
24 states contain less than half
of the 6,096,799 farms in the Uni—
ted States.
The percentage of these farms-
having automobiles was 74.2: the
percentage having tractors was,’
29.7, and the percentage having]
trucks was 15.1. The farms of
Iowa, Nebraska, Minnesota, and‘
South Dakota showed automobile
ownership in excess of the hum—3
In Iowa, 90.2
cent of all farms had automo-‘
biles and over 21,000 Iowa farms
had more than one car. But Iowa
still leads all states in the num-
ber of horses.
