The phrase "profound cunning** has always seemed to me a contradie* tlon In terms. I never knew a cun ning mind which was not either shallow, nr. on some points, diseased. —Mrs. Jame.son. What £he World Is (Doing, CAS SEEN BY POPULAR c,MECHANICS cAW GAZINE Racing Auto Takes Gas and Oil “On the Run” j While racing along at a speed of nearly ‘ ftO miles an hour to break a record, an automobile recently was supplied with • gas, oil, water, and relief drivers without , Stopping the car during a 3,155-mile run made in 50 hours 21 minutes. Although • three stops were made for tires during this ’ time, the engine was kept going without pause. All the other supplies were taken aboard, without stopping the machine, from another car which ran alongside dur ing the period of delivery. • * • Radio Speeds Up Takingjof Moving Pictures Radio carried orders of the movie direc tor to 5,000 members of the cast in a big • scene in a western studio recently. Where, usually, the megaphone is used to shout instructions, while camera men are tum - mg the cranks, this director, standing at a ; point from which he had a clear view of all - the actors, spoke his orders calmly into a sending instrument, which made it heard 1 clearly all over the lot. The directing, somew hat difficult because of the number , of people employed, was simplified by use c os radio, and the movie man predicted that it will be repeated in other big scenes. The same system was used to increase the carrying power of broadcast messages and concerts at the receiving end. • Use of 1 Ask Your Banker j I $2,000,000 I were taken by stock swindlers.

C - - • SILER CITY, N.C I Ancient Sundials. Tie Greeks were extraordinary adepts at sundialing, as were also the Egyptians and the Arabians, and one specially Interesting thing about these Rncient dials is that it is always pos sible to tell, approximately, where they were made. Every sundial, to he accurate, has to be made for the latitude of the place where it is to be set up. Thus, a sundial discovered at Pompeii In 1762 was (me designed for the latitude of Memphis, and from this It has been deduced that it was made by an Egyptian craftsman, possibly is the school of Alexandria. THE LABEL ON YOUR PAPER. radio in this case not only spared the director’s voice, but it produced better re sults by making it possible for all the actors quickly to go through with the scene without frequent stops. * * * Make Poison-Gas Test in Three Minutes Simple tests to find the degree of poison ing from a gas known as carbon monoxide are now possible v/ith the invention of an instrument that shows how much a person has been affected within three minutes, where formerly it took from 24 to 48 hours before this could be accurately determined. The apparatus may be carried in the packet and is expected to prove of partic ular value in mines, where this gas is a much-dreaded menace. Because of the compactness of the new instrument and the fact that it can be applied to a patient by one who has had no special training, it will be of broad general service, it is pre dicted. Government experts, who tried it on a young girl, assert that it is the quick est method known to detect the gas. v • * Tennis Court in Squares to Teach Accuracy Looking 10m a great checkerboard, ex cept that each square has a number, a tennis court has been devised to teach accuracy. While an instructor calls out the numbers, the player is required to place the ball in the required section. The practice provides training not only for the hands and feet, but also for the mind, be cause of the quickness with the numbers are called. * — / • Fishermen Use Electricity. What would Izmik Waltou say to an artificial minnow, made luminous by electricity, and resembling a wrig gling worm when i-jist Into the water, which will attract fish day or night? Such is the laiest refinement in elec trical fishing. The bait is protected from breakage by fine wires and tbs current is suppileo by an electric bat tery. All in the Point of View. In al) things throughout the world the men who look for the crooked will see the crooked, and the men who look for the straight will see the straight.—Ruskin. • Equipping the f/heelbarrow with Shock Absorbers The shocks suffered when pushing a wheelbarrow over rough ground can be largely eliminated by providing the wheel with shock absorl>ers made from buggy spring leaves. The leaves used for this . ■ purpose have -- eyes at the ends; pabt of each is cut to a t—<s? length of about ° l cll haft 8 in., and has three or four screw holes' LEAF J drillfcd tllTOUgh sprTng it- The eyes are reamed out so that they will ac commodate the axle of the wheel and allow it to turn easily, and the springs are screwed to the underside of the wheel barrow frame, the eyes being turned down. * * * Secure Latch for Paddocks It is desirable to have the gates of stables and paddocks provided with a latch that cannot be opened by the horses. made so that it touches the gatepost at bottom first, and the top must be sprung • in in order to hook the latch. There is a chance for the gate to open when tbt f latch is in position; the harder the stallioaf rubs or pushes against the gate, the tigh&ef the latch becomes. ; - * * * 1 ’ 9 Oil-burning ocean vessels without largji funnels are said to be regarded skepflk cally by Russians, Poles, and their neiglw bors, when about to emigrate to till) United States.
