Where the Pins Go To.

For many years the world has been
baffled by the problem of where the
pins 60 that are turned out in mil
lions of millions by the pin factories.
But the problem seems to have
been solved at last. A Paris scientist,
DR.. Xavier, has been experimenting
on pins, hairpins and needles by the
simple process Of watching a few.
He states that they practically dis
appear into thin air, by changing into
ferrous oxide, a brownish rust that
soon blows away in dust.
An ordinary hairpin took only 154
days to blow away. A steel nib lasted
just under Is months. A common pin
took Is months to vanish. A polished
steel needle defied the ravages of the
atmosphere longest, taking two and a
half years to disappear.
So the reason why the world is not
a foot deep in the pins it buys is, 1t
seems, exactly the same which makes
an iron surface scale off when exposed
for a long time to the atmosphere
without the protection of paint.

Il. s. ATHLETES PRAISED
BY BARON De COUBERTIN
President of international Olympic
Committee Says They Were
Well Trained.

LAUSANNE. Switzerland. May 10, 1913.
Baron Pierre de Coubertin, president OF
the international Olympic committee,
who has visited the United States several
times Of recent years. has very decided
opinions to account for the success OF
American athletes at Stockholm last
wear. In explaining his ideas the baron
said:
1.-The American contestants were sue
cessful primarily because Of their scien-
tific training, and next, on account of
their morale that is to say, their minds
were made up beforehand to win. Final
ly, their intense patriotism. when pitted
against other nations, was an ADDED rea-
son.
Scientific training alone cannot win In
my Judgment, without moral training and
patriotism. The Finnish athletes were
without the first, as they came from a
poor country, but with the other two at
tributes they did splendidly. Not only
the body, but the mind must be trained to
win in sports, and the athletes of many
nations overlook this, but not the Amer
leans.
Referring to the Thorpe case, the
| baron said
men too much for their prompt action
| in that delicate and unfortunate affair.
The regulations governing the status OF
amateurs and professionals. are today
similar case might arise tomorrow in
any country. We hope at our meeting
| in Paris in 1914 to make an inter-
national definition of amateurs and pro-
fsssionals Ny idea IS That that o every r, :
country's flag that he is pure. anna
teur. This would. l think, settle the
