The Inventor of the Steamboat For a long time the inventor o f tlw steamboat was said to bo Robert Fill ■ ten, but in recent years it has been, found tin t the real inventor was John, Fitch. John F il:h , horn in South Windsor, Conn., on January 21, 1743, because o f his towering intellect and his mighty genius, was so far in advance o f his timo that he is known as a dreamer of dreams. ----Nothing o f importance happened in Fitch’s life until at the outbreak of the Revolutionary war, when he en­ listed as a lieutenant in the American army. He served at 'fronton and Va)ley Forge, and was renowned, as gunsmith, His services were invalu­ able to the American army. In 1780 he came'to Kentucky with several boatloads o f emigrants from Pennsylvania and Virginia, but on his return was captured by Indians, After he and a few comrades escaped, he went hack to Pennsylvania, whore he did some, extensive surveying. The careful student, of history searches in vain for a competitor of Fitch in the first field o f successful steam navigation. In 1543 a man named Garey tried a new kind of boat, but it was, fo r the most part, run by man-labor. Jonathan Hulls, in 1736 wrote on t h e ' subject o f steam, but nothing was done. In 1788 a certain Miller o f Scotland made sonic steam­ boats, but they were.all failures. An Englishman, Symington by name, made a steamboat that could sail, but after a few trials i t turned out to be a failure. On August 22,' 1787, one hundred and forty-two years ago, the first suc­ cessful steamboat floated .upon, the Delaware River, John Fitch was its inventor. Patents were granted him by six states, by Congress, and by France. This steamboat actually carried passengers from Philacfelphia to Burlington, on .the Delaware River, After a long trip to France, in which he exhibited models o f his boats, he returned to New York City, where he invented a boat that was propelled by a screw propellor. In 1796 he returned to his home, .which was now in Bardstown, Ky., and once more exhibited modqls. But his funds ran. low, he sank deeper and deeper in poverty, and, heartbroken that his boats weren’t appreciated by the American people, he took his own life on July 2,1798. Visitors to Baidstown, Ky., can see this inventor’s grave, which is located in the public square of the city. ^ The grave o f this genius and hero of the Revolution will soon become a na­ tional shrine and the American people will here pay homage to the inventor- j f the steamboat, So' let us remember August 22 as the day when the first successful steamboat was run. on American waters. . • {BUS LINE CHANGE IN SCHEDULE UNSATISFACTORY Week Endin Chicago at the COMFORTABLE GREAT NORTHERN HO TEL G e t o p a congenial party*two or more couples come t o Chicago for a lark, take in the theatres or movie palaces, see the Art Institute, Field Museum, » 1 various sports or dance in night clubs.

In the claiming races a claim price is set in each contest at which the owner of the animal entered agrees to sell his steed if anyone cares to buy it at that price after the race. This action prevents the eptry of horses out o f their class and makes fo r more even competition. Two such races are set for Septem­ ber 3rd, the first a 2:20 trot, with a purse o f $400.00 and a claim price of $400.00 and a 2:13 pace, wherein the purse is $450.00 and a claiming price $800,001. The next day there arc two more claiming races, the first a 2:20 pace with a purse o f $400,00 and a claiming price of $600.00 and the sec­ ond a 2 :i8 trot, with a purse of $450 .00 and a claiming price o f $800.00. Total purses fo r the speed events are $6100 and on Labor Day include in addition to the race for non-winners a 2:12.. pace with a purse of $450.00} a 2:16 trot with a purse o f $450,00 a three year-old and under trot, with a purse of $400.00 and a 'fit e-eighths mile dash running race with a purse of $100.00. In addition to the two claiming races on September 3rd, there will be a 2:24 pace with a purse of $300.0(1 and a one-mile dash running rnco with purse of $150.00, while on September 4th in addition to the two claiming races there will be a 2:24 trot, with a purse of $300.00 and a three-quarter mile dash running race with a purse o f $100.00. On the final day, in addition to the race for previous non-winners, there will bo a 2:12 trot, purse $450.00; « 2:16 pacy, purse $450.00; a three-year* old and under pace, purse $400,00, and a one-mile daslr running race, purse $160.00.’ ; The horse show will be. held throughout the four days of the Fair' Jduring the afternoons and will include exhibitions o f the beat ponies and horses in this vicinity.

They even- become soldiers and sometimes become Generals’ secretaries! Women also become street-corner politicians and scream the Revolutionary plati­ tudes ’such as, “ Down with imperial­ ism," “ Give the people freedom,” to beat the most zealous men Revolution, aries. Rarely do you see meetings for propaganda or riots without seeing girls or women taking active part in them, urging on the riots. I am glad to say that some few of them are taking part in the Red Cross work in relieving the suffering o f those'wound­ ed in battle. Women, too, occupy places of influence in the government in Nanking. Once women’s faces lack­ ed’ all hope and ambition, and there are still great hosts o f women who are the same drudges at home or—worse —in great factories. But among the younger generation they have ambf- tion—ambition that carries them to extremes. I’m glad to soy that there are many modest, motherly women who have gone through our mission schools who are making nice, clean, benutiful Christian homes where the children are brought up well, and taught to be good useful members o f society, chil­ dren of whom they and missions can be proud and thankful. One can not expect great things from a nation in which the people, have been brought up for ages in filth, physical and moral; but a new generation is coming oft, born anewum the church o f Christ and in these clean Christian homes. We are expecting much for China from such. Things ary out o f joint in China; but we ‘ ope and pray that the common sense ot better Chinesd and the deeply planted power of the Gospel will grad­ ually overcome the criminal influences and that China will find peace, pros­ perity, and a place among the great nations o f the world. Yours in Christ’s glad service, (Rev.) H. G. C. HALLOCK. C. P. O. Box No. 1234, Study New Menace To Ohio Orchards Scientists and Fruit Growers Plan Meeting at Jackson . For September 10 A new menace has crossed the hori­ zon of the Ohio orchardist. Brooks’ fruit spot disease last year almost ruined the apple crop in the Ohio valley and this year is showing up again in serious proportions. It is a fungus disease which previously had been regarded as of minor importance. Active study o f the disease and it con­ trol was not started until the epidemic of 1928 set thy plant pathologists of the Ohio State University and the Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station to work on it, Successful methods o f controlling the disease have been worked out and demonstrated this summer. These methods will be explained at a meet­ ing to be held near ackson, in the heart o f the territory most affected by the disease, on September 10. “ While the disease lias thus fur been prevalent only in southern Ohio, it can become epidemic in any section of. the state,” says A. L. Pierstorff, extension plant pathologist for the Ohio State University, “ It is caused by a cool weather fungus which has caused seri­ ous damage in New Hampshire, Maine, and the riortheastern fruit growing section.” Experiments in the control of- Brooks’s fruit spot have been most complete it' . the Schullcnbergcr or­ chard, seven miles from Jackson, and here the meeting of pathologists and orchardicls will bo held September 10. The nature o f the disease, its appear­ ance, and characteristics as well as the formulas for control, will bo studied at- the meeting.
