Italians to Dive for Treasure
Of $3,000,000 in British. Ship
Rome.—Italian divers, whose work
in hunting the treasure of the Artiglio
;and the Egypt made them famous, are
beginning another chapter in the his-
tory of romantic salvage attempts. ,
The British government, after hav-
ing believed for years that any at-
tempt to salvage the precious cargo of
the motor -ship Glenartney, torpeoed
during the war by a German subma-
rine, was hopeless, have granted the
Soncession to the Sorima Company of
Genoa, which recovered the gold of
the Egypt.
The Glenartney was sunk off Cape
Bon, not far from the Tunis coast, in
1918, while en route from Singapore to
London with a cargo of rare metals,
including 6,000 tons of tungsten and
150 tons of the rare mineral known as
strait. The present value of this car-
go is calculated at about three million
dollars.
The Glenartney lies in about 700
feet of water, but this does not fright-
en the salvage company. Two vessels
have been sent to Cape Bon. They are
lying off the Tunis coast, and have
succeeded in locating the Glenartney,
The vessels are the Ipomea and the
Italia. The former is about 100 feet
long and the latter about eighty.
The bottom of the sea is muddy
where the sunken vessel lies. With
the diving machinery they have
aboard, the divers of the Ipomea can
go down more than 300 meters, which
is considerably more than the depth at
which the Glenartney lies.
The Week in Science
Metals of the Future—Latest
Notes on Cosmic Rays
As ht looks back upon the breath-
ts advance of scientific research in
o last fifteen years Professor Colin
G. Fink of Columbia University won-
Ilers, in The Engireering and Mining
$ournal, what th future will bring
forth. So many dire prophecies of the
past have failed of fulfillment—like
ir William Crookes's forbodeing, at
the turn of the century, of a nitrogen
famine which would make it impos-
sible to grow enough wheat to feed the
Western nations—that, to Professor
Pink, "the realization of the existence
ad a problem almost invariably is
equivalent to a prophecy of its solu-
tion." Whereupon he pictures a few
Isnmediate possibilities in the chemical
Utopia.
Aluminum—will it always be reduc-
ed from bauxite, the few deposits of
Which are closely held? H thinks not.
Norwegian electro chemists have al-
ready shown that from iron ore and
'play an aluminum -containing slag can
be produced, and from this aluminum.
But s by not turn common clay (lum-
ina) into aluminum? The possibil-
looms on the horizon. There will
a tremendous boom in the use of
lurninum when that happens. The
pieta! may be cheaper than steel.
Bauxite properties may sell for a song.
Professor Fink expects that our
descendants will "listen with a smile
Go an account of how thousands of
Worms were carefully nurtured on
'mulberry leaves in specially construct-
ed houses, how these worms were in-
duced to spin cocoons and how these
Cocoon:: were unwrapped, the thread
forming the basis of our entire silk
Industry." Rayon and similar fibres
indicate what we may look for. Fac-
tories are already taking the place of
1v. _ens.
INDEPENDENT OF FARMS.
It is equally funny to behold our-
selves raising billions of bushels of
'wheat and milking millions of cows to
feed . ourselves. To Professor Fink
ithe actual energy finally turned into
tblood and bone is ridiculously small
when compared with the vast amount
at energy expended in producing these
iastaple food products." He believes
that before longcivilization will be in -
I dependent of the farm, the dung heap,
and the cow for grain and milk. To
him. it is significan. that ethyl or grain
alcohol has become r by-product of the
petroleum industry, and that acetic
acid, once obtained solely from na-
ture's wood, now cones from coal and
limestone, which two raw materials
are electrically changed into calcium
'carbide, and the carbide into acety-
lene, acetaldehyde, acetic acid and
acetone.
Because he had no electric furnace,
the old-time chemist could not bring
. about such reactions. All that he
could do was to break down complexes.
His successor of today builds them
up. Instead of trying to produce pure
tantalum metal, for example he cre-
ates tantalum compounds with new
uses. One result is tantalum carbide,
indispensable now hi the cutting in-
dustry. With titanium it is the same.
Not the pure metal but its compounds
are now sought. Titanium pigments
threaten the old supremacy of lead
paints.
Even a metal like copper, at pres-
ent indispensable in electrical appar-
atus, may have to yield its place.
S.,dium is a better conductor. Pro-
fessor Fink cannot help wondering
whether it will not become the metal
of the electrical engineer.
So with zinc; cadmium, which used
to be se,mething of a curiosity, is now
taking its place, and cadmium is a
mere by-product. But what of such
one-time rarities as indium, german-
ium and gallium? They are seeking
markets. A beginning has already
been with with iridium -plated ware.
But, as in the case of tantalum and
titanium, Professor Fink is inclined
to think that the largest promise is
held out by compounds of gallium, in-
dium and germanium.

"Christians, Awake," was being
sung as a carol, when a window was

Doctor—"Well, Mr. Jones, I am sor-
ry to tell you that your wife's mind Is
completely gone."
Jones—"Well, doctor, I am not at
all surprised to hear that, for I've had
a piece of it every day now for these,
last six years."
Husband—"It is a strange, thing, but
true, thatthe biggest fools have the
most beautiful wives."
His Wife (pleased) --"Oh, what a
flatterer you are, darling."
Another thing about nudist mar-
riages is the bride will never have to

Junior was dejected walking home
from school, and his woebegone ap-
pearance attracted the attention of a'
kind-hearted woman who happened to
pass him on the street.
Kind -Hearted Woman — "What is
troubling you, my little man?"
Junior — "Dyspepsia, rheumatism,
asthma and appendicitis." that's
Kind -Hearted Woman—"Why
absurd. How can that be?"
Junior—"Teacher kept me in after
school because I couldn't spell them."
CHEMICAL AGE BEGINNING.
"Who knows," he asks, "whether
or not a compound of one or the other
of these three metals will make a dye
for cottons and silks that will not
bleach out in the sun?" Chemists seem
to have taken it for granted that dyes
trust be coal -tar derivatives. To Pro-
fessor Fink the fast, washproof dyes
are more likely to be obtained from
minerals. The best blue today is arti-
ficial lapis lazuli, but no one has a
scientific explanation of its beauty and
its fastness.
The age of chemical synthesis is
only beginning, he concludes. "We
must get away from the belief that the
compounds of the earth's crust are the
only ones possible. With the facilities
at our disposal we can, at very high
temperatures, or under the influence of
very powerful electric discharges, or
through the action ofpowerful chem-
ical and physical means, bring about
reactions which even nature has not
produced in the last." a
BURSTS OF COSMIC RAYS.
Hoffman, a distinguished German
physicist, discoverer that the cosmic
rays do not pone in upon us steadily
as light does , from the sun. Some-
times there are what he calls Stosse,
or bursts. Others have observed these
rocket-like bursts and wondered what
they are and how they are caused.
At sea -level they occur two or three
tines a day, but on a mountain as
high as Pike's Peak, three er four
times as frequently.
It is difficult to account for the
bursts for the simple reason that it
is impossible to see the cosmic rays as
we see the light of day. It is only by
their effects in and on instruments
and natter that the cosmic rays are
detected at all. Here Professor R. A.
Milliken thinks we have a clue to the
origin of the bursts. In other words,
they are conditioned by the instru-
ments, and net produced by the mays
in the absence of instruments. This
theory he develops in The Physical
Review in an article written in collab-
oration with Dr. Carl D. Anderson,
discoverer of the positron, and Dr. H.
Victor Neher. In another article by
Victor Neher, the statistical aspect* of
bursts are studied, with the strong
presumption that we are dealing with
instrumental varagies rather than
something puzzling in the cosmic rays
themselves.
We must either keep step with the
changing times, or be cast aside. The
attempt to hide our lack of ability to
adjust ourselves to a changing world,
by declaring the changes are all
wrong, will never get us anywhere.
Joe—"Rankin left town in debt and
almost in rags, I understand."
Sam—"Yes, but there'll be plenty of
suits waiting for hian' if he comes
back."
By the length of time it takes some
men who have been going with the
same girl for years, to make up their
mind to propose, the girl begins to
think that they are just taking up her
time for the "love" of it.
Spendalot—"Well, how has every-
thing gone since I last saw you?"
Hardup—"Everything's gone!"
If a list of hardest jobs were made,
heading it we guess would be bringing
up a modern child in the way he or
she should go.

COME FROM THE BATTERY.
One o• the instruments used in the
study of the cosmic, rays is the electro-
scope. It usually consists of two
quartz fibers in a vessel. Ordinarily
the fibers are held apart by equal and
similar electrical discharges. The
current to do this is supplied by a
small battery. When the cosmic rays
play upon such an instrument there is
no keeping the fibers apart. The mays
have strong electrical or ionizing ef-
fects. It is then that physicists detect
the rays. then influences may also
cause the libel's to close—the emana-
tions of radium from the earth's
rocks, for example. All these disturb-
ing factors valet be excluded. And
excluded they are by lead shields and
by controlling all known conditions.
Professor Milliken and his collabor-
atora are of the opinion that the
bursts come not from the cosmic rays,
but from the battery which furnishes
the electricity that keeps the quartz
fibers of the electroscope apart. Milli-
ken suggests that a cosmic -ray shower
hits one side of the electroscope and
produces a large .lumber of ions,
or
wreaked atoms. Hence the bursts are
"instrumental accidents" which have
"little to teach aobut the mechanism
.. , of the cosmic rays themselves."

Children Appreciate Security
Therefore Stress Good
Points
Chicago.—"f you make a fuss over
good behavior in a child," Dr. H. W.
Newell of Baltimore told the American
Orthopsychiatric Association, "much
of his misbehavior will vanish."
"The most important factor in a
child's emotional life" Dr. Newell said,
"is his sense of security. Undermine
it and he begins unconsciously to seek
to restore it by device to win the
mother's attention. Much misbehavior
is due to this yearning for attention
which he gets when he 'cuts up,' even
though ie is a scolding.
"For instance, if a boy pulled his
sister's hair eight times yesterday
and three times to -day, most mothers
would scold him for to -day's offences.
But if, instead, she complimented him
on the fact that he had erred five
times less to -day, the child would
learn that behaving is just as sure a
way to earn attention as misbehav-
ing."
The Ladies' Aid
The old church bell has long been
cracked
Its call is but a groan,
It seemed to sound a funeral knell
With every broken tone,
We need a bell the brethren said,
But taxes must be paid,
We have no money we can spare,
Just ask the Ladies' Aid.
Tho shingles on the roof were old,
The rain came down in rills,
The brethren slowly shook their heads
And spoke of monthly bills,
The chairman of the board arose
And said, "I ant afraid
That we shall have to lay the case
Before the Ladies' Md."
The carpet had been patched and
patched
Till quite beyond repair,
And through the aisles and on the
steps
The boards showed hard and bare.
"It is too bad," the brethren said,
An effort should be made
To raise an interest on the part
Of the members of the Aid,
waiswnn llm,
"I never knew anything like Omega
Oil for putting the limbs and body
into shape after prolonged exercise.
It takes out soreness, and keeps it
out."
Sosaid the late James J. Corbett,
conqueror of John L. Sullivan. Famous
athletes and their trainers have long
known that Omega Oil goes deeper,
and can be rubbed in without blister-
ing. Every household needs it. It
takes out the pain and stiffness from
sore strained muscles and ligaments
so quickly. 35 and 60 cts. at all drug-
