Niagara Falls.
To the question "How old Is Niagara
falls?' geologists have given replies
varying by tens of thousands of yean.
At first it was estimated that Niagara
river came into existence through
changes in the level of the land around
the great lakes about 55,000 years ago.
Later this was reduced to only 12,000
years. Lyell increased the estimate
again to 85,000 years, and still later
other scientists lowered it to about
9,000 years. At one period, many thou
sands of years ago, the height of the
falls was 420 feet

INTERESTS LARGE

lhe reasons offered In explanation of
!?te"atc'0U8 eiltraUt?f of Aa J"
that of the widely scattered Hellenic
populations and business Interests in
the Ottoman Empire. An Important
part of the wealth of Greece is earned
by the enterprises of her people with
out her borders, and her sons, as cap
tains of Near Eastern Industry and'
commerce, have taken a leading and
lucrative part in the exploitation of
Turkish lands. In illustration of this
phase of the problem confronting the
statesmen at Athens, a study prepared
by the National Geographic society
on the Greek Interests in the Levant
is timely. It reads:
"From Damascus to Adrlanople,
and from Smyrna to Treblzond, Greek
rapacity for buying and selling, and
tor banking, has quickened commer
cial life In spte of the heavy odds of
the outworn forms of Turkish admin
istration. Throughout this vast terri
tory, where western capital and lead
ers are not to the fore, Big Business
is In the hands of the Greeks, to such
an extent that plutocracy in the Le
vant has almost become a matter of
nationality. Equipped with the best
training that the commercial schools
of France and Germany can give, with
the best training that the commercial
schools of France and Germany can
give with practical experience in the
big firms of London, Paris, Berlin and
Vienna, and with a native business
acumen equal to that of the Jew, the
modern Greek has been able to carry
everything before him in those lands
neighboring his country where bust
ness methods have been at a standstill
ever since the days of Joseph.
"Beirut, Smyrna, Alexandretta, Con
stantinople and Treblzond, all great
ports of the Levant and Middle East,
number their most fortunate citizens
the wealthy Creek merchants, bankers
and shippers. Navigation on the east
em Mediterranean and on the Aegean
sea is largely In the hands of the
Greeks, and. on the Black sea, they
successfully divide this business with
the Russians. Even the interior trade
of Turkey-in-Europe and of Asia
Minor is largely upheld by the vigor
of Greek enterprise,
"Greek colonists have followed In
the wake of Greek business, and the
larger commercial cities of the ports
have acquired a considerable number
of Hellenic residents since the days
of Greek independence. Moreover,
there have always been large native
populations and settlements of Greeks
In the realm of the Sultan, outside of
the Grecian peninsula. The whole
coast country of Asia Minor, from the
Dardanelles to the Gulf of Adalla, is
dotted with innumerable Greek vil
lages, manv of the inhabitants of
which are the descendants of the
proud Greek cities that first felt the
wrath of the Persians In classic times.
The Greek language Is preserved in
these settlements, and they, in their
importance and the number of then-
people, have made Greek one of the
important lancuaeres of western Asia
Minor, ranking with, or higher than
the other four Idioms of the land
Turkish. Armenian, Kurdish, Syriae.
"The Turk is the least business-like
of all the elements In his Empire. Ills
role from his appearance in history
down to the present day, has been that
of the conquerer, of the overlord supe.
rior to commerce and Industry, though
often, where pressed by necessity, j
working as a tiller of the soil. The
careens open to him have been tne
army, administrative offices, the pro
fessions, or the indolent ease of land
lordism. As a seller of merchandise,
the Turk Is the least enterprising and
the least Importunate and annoying of
all the peoples of the East; for he sits
by his wares and awaits phlegmatl
cally the pleasure of Allah.
'Thus, business !n the Ottoman Em
pire Is completely In the hands of the
Greeks, the Armenians, the Arabs, the
Jews, and great Western firms with
branches in the Middle East. To the
Greek has fallen the lion's share of the
business. He has always managed to
get on with the Turk, whereas the Jew
and the Armenian have often failed
signally to maintain the favor of their
overlords. Especially, has the Arme
nian succeeded In bringing down upon
his luckless head the relentless disap
proval of the Moslem. Turk snd Kurd.

work which not only brings In the
quickest return, but seems to be in
the national interests as well.
Social workers who have the boys'
welfare at heart are Inclined to la
ment, that so "many should be enter
ing wnat may not perhaps prove a
permanent occupation. They say that
their future Is not unlikely to become
a problem after the war and that the
country might well remember then
that the great army of boy munition
workers played no small part in the
difficult time.
The daily life of these boys shows
what sacrifices '. they are making.
Thousands live an hour's Journey from
the factory, and some have to leave
home as early as 6:30 In the morning
and cannot get back till 9:30 In the
evening. All work twelve hours a day,
starting at 8 and finishing at 8.
They take the night shift too, also for
12 hours, and often a boy may be
asleep from sheer exhaustion on his
way home In tramcar or train.
Every effort is made by the minis
try of munitions to safeguard the
health of the youngsters, but the
problem Is a difficult one. Eight hour
shifts are being urged and efforts are
being made to Improve the transpor
tation facilities to and from the ar
senal. One of the latest suggestions
and the one most likely to be carried
out Is to build miles of huts close
to the arsenal where the boys could
live while engaged in shell-making.

SUGGESTIONS ON PREVENTING
WINTER FIRES.
Chimneys should be built from the
ground up and never rest on wood
supports. The setting ot the wood'
work will cause cracks In the chim
ney. Nor should the chimney walls
be used to support Joists or other
woodwork. Soft brick and roor mor
tar are often responsible 'for defects
in the chimney. Use a good quality ot
brick and cement mortar, up through
the first floor snd above the roof.
Chimney walls should be at least
eight Inches thick, the Use of ample
size and lined with fire clay or terra
cotta. Never stuff up flue holes with
rags or paper, nor cover them with
cheesecloth, or anything but a metal
stop. Chimneys should be cleaned
frequently.
Defective stoves, boilers, furnaces,
pipes and chimneys should be prompt
ly 1 repaired or replaced. Fire Mar

LOOK PROSPEROUS.
Even though you may not be
prosperous, adopt as fat as possible
the appearance of prosperity. It is

interest in the long run. Shabby

can easily be turned down when
they are most in need of a helping
