It's graduation day for bombardiers at San Angelo, Tex, Army Air
Field, and big demolition missiles come pouring out of open bomb
bay doors of training planes. Their targets included battleships,
aircraft carriers, oil storages and docks (all constructed on the Texas
prairie) and the three sad -faced guys below.

Smokeless Powder
The shells that. Americans and
their Allies are firing all over
the world are propelled by hard
perforated, gray and taffy co•Ior-
ed • grains of smokeless powder.
As a relative or friend of a fight-
ing elan, you may take comfort
in the knowledge that it is the
best military explosive ever de-
vised, as superior to the powder
used in other wars as electric
lighting is to kerosene.
Deed only as a propellant -
which means it carries the shell
where it has been aimed at -it

gaseous lead burns at almost any
d esired speed, and it leaves the
gun barrel free of corrosive flirt,
the combustion residue that for
years restricted the successful use
of longe range, rapid fire rifled
guns.

Smokeless powder is used in all
xai'le, machine guns, anti-arieraft
and land and naval cannon. To
Powclermen it is known as single
base explosive because it is made
of ether and alcohol, wood or cot-
ton fibres, plus certain acids.
Nitroglycerin, the essential ingre-
dient of double base powder, is
not present. The substances that
make up smokeless powder are in-
geniously mixed and subjected to
great pressure. -
It is not truly smokeless be-
cause it leaves a slight haze on
firing, but this haze is much Iess
than that formed by old types
of black powder. The merit in a
powder deficient in smoke is ap-
preciated by coast guard and
anther land gunners, who do not
wish the location of their em-
»lacetnents revealed to aircraft

Ogden's quality for pipe smokers,
too, in Ogden's Cut Mug
en which they have trained their
guns. And since it leaves 110
glowing residue in the gun bar-
rel, smokeless polvder is of addi-
tional benefit because it reduces
the danger of a premature explo-
sion.
In seeking powder of a certain
strength, the rate of burning is
all-important. In smokeless pow-
der, this acceleration is governed
by the minute perforations that
run the length of the grains.
Known as pin holes they are in-
troduced into the grain in its
.last formative pressing under
3,000 pounds pressure, from
eh thev 1
which powder emerges in long
strands resembling macaroni.

In .30 and .50 calibre and in

the grains have only a single hole
of extremely small diameter.
Larger cannon varieties . have
seven holes, not much larger, but
all accurately spaced.
"Green" powder becomes fin-
ished powder after the solvents
have been extracted with heat.
The fumes of the solvents are
condensed, collected and stored
for re -use. After this process a
negligible amount of ether and
alcohol remaining is washed away
with hot water, The powder has
been reduced 25 per cent. in size,
Finally it is dried in hot air,
blended in huge lots to insure a
product of great uniformity, and
packed in zinc lined cans which
have been tested with a pressure
of several atmospheres to show
that they are air and water tight.
Modern Etiquette
By Roberta Lee
1, If an engagement has been
announced in the rrewspapei'e, and
is then broken, is it all right to
send an ,Itnitaunec'inent of its ter-
mination to the paper,?
2. Should a dinner guest push
his chair back under the table
when leaving it?
3. When writing a note to de-
cline an invitation, should one
make it formal?
4. What should two pepole tee
if introduced to each other for
the second time?
5. Is it necessary to send a gift
when one is invited to a church
wedding, but not to the reception?
6, I -low many vegetables is it
necessary to serve at a dinner?
ANSWERS
1. Yes; if desired; this is solne-
timee done. 2. Not unless it is
necessary for others to walk by.
3. Yes, if the invitation is formal.
Otherwise, not. The form of the
invitation should be followed, 4.
If the occasion is a formal one,
they
should both
acknowledge edge the
introduction and not attempt any
eeplanatiops that would be em-
barrassing to the' person making
the introduction. However, if the
occasion is an informal one, it is
all right to recall the, previous
meeting., 5. No; only invitations
to the reception require gifts. 5.
TWO vegetables are sufficient,
Have You Heq,d
Gracie Fields recently told of
the difficulties of Henry Nibble,
a train conductor, who wanted
to• be vaccinated. He couldn't be
vaccinated in the arum because he
had to punch tickets, he explain-
ed to the doctor, And the leg
w.ouldn't do because he had a lot
of walking.
Finally the doctor demanded
with exasperation: "Where do' you
want to be vaccinated?"
"Well, doctor, I don't sit down
much," Henry. replied.
"Wily is it that so ninny
women will persist in mak-
ing themselves five years
younger thanthey really
are?" asks a playwright.
Perhaps it's because they'
didn't learn to count until
they were five.
In a crowded street ear, a very
thin lady was greatly .discomfited
by the pressure of an extremely
fat lady who sat next to her.
Turning to her othei neighbor,
the thin lady r'emarlled "They
really should charge by weight."
To which the fat lady replied,
"But if they did, dearie, they
couldn't afford to stop for some
people."
Father -"No, I won't do
your sura for you. It wouldn't
be right,"
Bobby -"I don't suppose
it would, but you -might have
a try." ,
"Look here, Mrs. Murphy, why
have you been hitting ley little.
Bobby?"
a.'I only hit ]tile because he was
rude and called inc a fat old pig."
"But good greeious, Mrs. Mur-.
phy, you ought to know better
than that. Hitting rn3* son won't
do you any good; you'll have to
start dieting'!"
.He -"I admit, nay dear, the
women . are more beautiful
than men."
She -"Naturally,
r He -"No, artificially."
Tecl had - just returned from
church and his wife asked him:
"What was the texof the ser-
nton today?" "He g vette His be-
loved sleep," was the • eply, "Many
people there?" she ifuired, "All
the beloved," came tie answer,
"Are these eg s strictly
fresh?"
"Fresh? Feel 'e and see
