'uesday, August 11, 1925 p hat the World Is Doing , Seen by Popular Mechanics Magazine lobby-Horse Chair on Springs Kept Cromwell in Training One of the reasons for Oliver Crom sll’s fame is the fact that he suc- Bsfully developed the cavalry units his army to a high degree of effi ency, demonstrating the value of rises in many battles. An interest g sidelight on this phase of his reer lias attracted attention in a curious armchair with a seat iting on high springs extending ove the bottom frame. When home Im campaigns and too busy to take War exercise on his mount, Crom ■ is said to have exercised in this Ir, bouncing up and down for a « period each day to keep him s accustomed to the ‘motions of rseback riding. The relic is now in : possession of Premier Baldwin of igland and was demonstrated, by n when friends visited him at his lidence. ; * *. y Ladio Control on Railways to Start and Run Trains 1 radio system capable of operat : railway trains, throwing switches, 1 providing* means qf conumunica n with passengers, all from a cen -1 point, has been described by G.

It is entirely possible, he said, through a combination of electric and radio supervisory control, to start a train without a crew from a station, oper ate it at full speed, or to slow or stop it, automatically in compliance with automatic block signals, permitting a central dispatcher to control and su pervise completely all movement of trains on a system. The carrier-cur rent of signaling and communication, as the process is called, is based on the principle that wireless waves will practically follow along the course of wires without leaving them, if pro pelled in a certain way. * * * Making Giants Out of Mice and Men Rsia as large as raccoons and guinea pigs as big as badgers are pos sibilities as a result of a discovery by a scientist of the University of Cali fejria, while its application to cattle, sheep and hogs, as well as to geese, ducks and chickens, would result iu such an increase in sire and rapidity of growth that one-half the live stock now produced would furnish the same quantities of foodstuffs as those raised today. The discovery was made, after nine years’ work, by Dr. Herbert M.Evans, who also announced that he had found that barren animals may be made capable of producing young by feeding them with a certain food. The fifst ,ot these findings is that the extract of the, pituitary gland*, a tiny organ hidden in the base of the brain, when injected into the tissues of liv ing creatures, no matter what their age. starts a period of growth limited in time, amount and rapidity only by the quantity administered and the duration -of administration. Rats, bom in the same litter and treated daily with “pituitrin” extract out grew by fifty pei* cent other rats bf the same litter reared under the same conditions ljut without pituitrin,. . Dr. Evans says he does not know when it will be possible to apply this es when they saw two funnel-shaped clouds approaching, those in the path of the kind kept their heads below the line of Hying timbers. 1 The fact that the two tornadoes met at Hock wood is believed to have saved Brawley, four miles from here, and other Imperial valley towns from serious damage. The twisters tore n path one-half mile wide and four miles long- before they collided. CRYING UNNATURAL IN BABY, SAYS AUTHORITY ON INFANTS Bellowing Habit Due to Imitation of Other Little Fellows, He Claims. London, Aug. 10.—There is no need for a healthy, well-nmnaged baby to contract the habit of crying, in the opinion of Dr. Erie Pritchard, medi cal director of the Infants’ Hospital, who is an authority on infants. “It- always strikes me as strange.” said Dr. Pritchard, "that, white near ly everybody is able to tell why a lamb bleats, very few persons seem to lmve any idea why a baby cries." "More than GO per cent, of Hie babies brought to my clinic,” he add ed, “have .this complication, while 20 treatment to human beings, because his experiments are not yet complete, and because of the difficulty of ob taining a purified extract from the pituitary gland. The fluid which was used in the experiments was obtained from tadpoles. If, however, the ad ministration of the pituitary extract produces the same result in all rats, regardless of age or sex, there is every reason to believe that it will have the same effect on larger animals, even to man. * * * Making Crystals at Home Good crystals can be made at home. Crystal set users are always anxious to try new crystals, and many of those now on the market are not as good cs they should be. The in gredients used are powdered lead and sulphur, and when properly made will equal, in clearness and volume, many of the best commercial types. Lead shavings can be melted on an iron plate over a gas stove, but if tho crys tal maker' is equipped with a porce lain crucible and Bunsen burner, th« lead can be handled more easily. Methods cf Melt ! -» Lead and Sulphur or Iron Plate and in Crucible for Making Syn the tic Crystal* When the lead is molten, sprinkle powdered sulphur over it and stii with an iron wire. The lead, if hot enough, wiH then burn with a blue flame, and the result is a synthetic form of lead sulphide, which, when cool, will act as a good detector. per cent, are brought for that alone. Imitation plays an important part in the formation of habit and character. If ©lie baby hears another crying, or making odd sounds, lie will do like wise. We had recently in the nurs ery training school an Indian baby rllio hud so closely imitated the fog horn, which he hud hoard on shipboard coming to England, that the hotel pro prietors here refused lo keep him in their rooms. Another baby was brought to us because he made a noise like thg. of a locomotive, u ■habit he had picked up because his parents lived near a railway station.” Two colored men were standing on tlie corner discussing family trees. “Yes, -suh. man,” said Ambrose, “I can trace my relations back to a family tree?” “Chase 'em back to a family tree?” said Mose. “Saw, man—trace ’em—trace ’em —get get?" “Well, they ain’t but two kinds of things dat live in trees—birds and monkeys—and you tfho’ ain't got no feathers on you.” THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE •XXXXXXXXXXXXX4 AGRICULTURAL COLUMN 1 R.

B.—The corpora lion commission today tentatively settled the Charlotte and Greensboro bus line controversy by awarding to Krk's Auto and Bus Service six of the 13 daily through trips, four to the Dixie Motor Conch lines, two to the Charlotte and Concord Bus line and one to the Blue Star Bus line. An extra trip, which must he brok en at Salisbury, is given the Kirk line. “On June 30. 1025.” the commis sion’s order said, “a tentative order was issued requiring the Dixie iflotor Coach lines, incorporated to show cause on August 1. 1025. why its temporary permit should not be with drawn. This tentative order was made because the Dixie was the ew neet operator o the line and with the view that if the number of opera tors were to be reduced that line should, for this reason, be eliminated. “On the date assigned, the Dixie Motor Coach lines;—incorporated, ap peared and presented reasons which have been convincing to the commis sion that it should not be required to retire from this service. While it is th newest operator on the line, it is the oldest operator in the line in giving through service between (Jrecsboro and Charlotte. Tt bits equipment that is new and of high standard quality. It operates bussfo of 24 seating capacity. From the testimony at the hearing, the com mission is convinced it would not serve convenience to eliminate Dixie Motor Coach lines, incorporated, from this service.” New Schedules. The local service is divided, accord ing to petition, between the Royal Blue Transportation company, incor porated between Greensboro and High Point; the Blue Star Bus line, which also getsone ofthe 13 through ’trips. between High Point and Lex ington: the White Bus line, between Concord and Kannapolis, and the Charlotte, Cocord Bus line between Charlotte and Concord.
