"Huglios ha8 declared ho la not a candidate and has refused to lot his namo bo printed on the ballot," Is what we often hear from republicans, who add, "Hughes Is my first choice; his nomination would completely unite tho party and make success certain; I would like to soo him head tho ticket If ho would only become a candidate." But anyono who will rofloct a mo ment will roallzo Hint tho course of JuhUco IIughoB Is tho only ode he could perdlBtoly pursue. Ho Is not seeking tho presidency. Nc Judgo, sit ting In the highest bench, can scram ble for a presidential nomination,, yet neither does the fact that lie Is not a candidate and declined to ruthorl.o tho filing of his name stand In the way of people voicing a call for htm that he must respond to. Tho lloston Transcript correctly describes the po sition Justice lliiglios Is In, as follows: The call for Hughes now coming up from the pcplo In every part of the country voices first of all a populnr drtmnnd for leadership In tho day of the natlotiB's danger. The determina tion to draft Mr. Hughes Js not sur prising when we consider his record In the past, his resolution In tho prosont and his qualification for future ser vice. It Is not too much to say that the mass of tho people wlio arc do- tqrminod to conscript him as their lea dor In this crisis aro In :i heroic mood.

There Is ln Central America a brown wren about the size of a canary which builds a curious nest. It selects a small tree with horizontal branches growing close together. Across two of tho branches it lays sticks fastenpd, to gether with tough fiber until n , plat form about six feet long by two feet wide has been constructed. On tho end of this platform nearest the tree trunk It thou" builds n huge dome shaped nest a foot or so high with thick sides of Interwoven thorns. A covered passageway Is then made from the nest to tho end of tho platform ln as crooked a manner as possible. Across tho outer cjnd as well ns at short Intervals along the Inside of this tunnel are placed cunning little Xqnccs of thorns with just space enough, for the owners to pass through. On going out this opening Is closed by tho own er by placing thorns across the gate way, and thus the safety of the eggs or young Is assured. :o: :- For Farm Loans soo or wrlto Gene Crook, room 3, Waltemnth building, North Platto. 41tf .T.

A How Chalk Is Formed. Deposits of chalk aro found on some shores of the sen. A piece of chalk," such as tho teacher uses to illustrate something on the blackboard nt school, consists of the remnlns of thousands of liny creatures that at one tiino lived In the sen. All of their bodies, excepting the chalk called carbonate of lime In scientific language has disappeared and tho chalk that was left was piled up where it fell at tho bottom of the ocean, each particle pressing over It all until it became almost solid. It took thousands, of years to make these chalk deposits of tho thickness In which they aro found.
