Gasoline at the Poles

The Amundsen and Scott expedi-
tions were greatly hindered through
losing much of their gasoline loss
that, in fact, had much to do with the
disaster that befell Captain Scott Mr..
B. 7. Brooks of the Mellon Institute
of Industrial Research thinks he
knows what caused the loss. At low
temperatures. he says, ordinary tin
tends to pulverize. At "a degrees be-
low zero it pulverizes quickly and may
pulverize. although more slowly, at a
higher temperature Now, hard solder
usually contains a large percentage Of
tin, and so. of course. disintegTates in
the same way. Consequently the gas
oline cans are likely to leak at the
soldered seams. Mr. Brooks suggests
that polar explorers carry their sup
plies of gasoline in containers made
of glass, or of some metal unaffected
by extreme cold.-Youth's Companion.

WINTER STORAGE OF ONIONS
Efficient Way is to Select Dry, Some
what Elevated Place and Store
in Suitable Box Frame.


CBy z. p. SANDSTteN. Colorado Expert
ment Station1
Where regular storage for onions is
not obtainaoie or possible. cheap and
efficient way is as follows:
Select dry, somewhat elevated
place, nor necessarily on ridge or a
hill. On this place set box or frame
of desired dimensions for the amount
of onions to be stored The depth of
the box should noS be over sixteen or
eighteen inches. Pieces of 2 by 4
should be placed under the box so that
the box will not come in direct con-
tact with the moist soil. The floor of
the box should be reasonably tight.
After the onions have been thoroughly.
cured and topped, they should be
placed in the box and the board
placed on top. The cover should be
water tight. Before cold weather sets
in keep the cover raised to permit ven-
tilation.
No other protection is given to the
onion, but they are permitted to freeze
solidly and when in this state the box
should be covered with dry straw or
corn stalks or any material that would
prevent the onions from thawing out,
or alternate freezing and thawing. In
the spring of the year, or when ready
to be sold, the covering should be re-
moved gradually and the onions per-
mitted to thaw out without coming
into contact with the sunlight. During
the winter or while in the frozen state,
they may be taken out and gradually
thawed out in a cool room.
In the frozen state the onions will
keep perfectly and when thawed out
will remain solid for considerable
length of time.
Care must be taken that the onions
are dry when placed in the storage
and that they are kept frozen through
out the winter. The quality of the
onions is not impaired by one freez-
ing.

POPULAR LECTURE.

On Tuesday, Nov. 24, Hon. William
 Howard Taft, ILL. D., D. c. L.. ex-pres- Sdent of the United States, will deliver au address in Slater hall at 8 ?. m.. the fifth oG the popular lecture course. That this is an event of great impor- fance in the life of the community there is no doubt, for seldom are Norwich citizens given the privilege of welcoming one of the nations greatest men. Mr. Taft's tremendous popular ity as speaker is attested by the fact that requests for his services come from all parts of the country. It Is unnecessary to remind the public of the intellectual equipment, extraodri-
 nary training, and rich experiences of ex-President Taft, which fit hIm so peculiarly to speak on the subjects of the day. The Signs of the Times is the subject for Tuesday evening and in MT. Taft's hands sure to be of vivid in- terest. Whatever considerations Mr.
 Taft may present, whether pertaining to international problems of political tendencies, every utterance will merit the closest attention. It is anticipated that MT Taft will be accorded the en- thusiastic reception to which his quail dcations as speaker and qualities as a man so obviously entitle him. Elec- tric car connections may be made for New London. Westerly, Willimantic Rud Central Village after the lecture.

THE AUDIIoRIuM.
An Excellent Show Today.


 Starting with the very first picture and until the curtain falls for the last time, or until everything is over, noth- ing but praise can be heard for the en- tire show. It opens with the Animat- ed Weekly which has much intersting war news, a big Masonic parade, a pie ture of the oldest Mason in the world and other up-to-date subjects, includ- ing some timely cartoons by lily Meyer, the worlds greatest cartoontst. Next comes the feature picture in two reels, entitled The Rock of Hope released by the popular Victor company, with Rosemary Thebe and Harry Myers in the leading roles, two new Universal stars. It is deep emotional play relative to the great question Must a man deep in sin experience misfortune of a violent nature in order to appre-. ciate properly his own condition, or this realization come quietly ?' The piece is particularly well written and is handled Toy a very capable cast. After this feat re the vaudeville starts with Sam Barber, the coon with the educated feet, and you might say also the coon with the educated hands, as the young n18nT can certainly tickle the notes of piano in great shape. The Welch- American Trio is the fol- lowing number and consists Of two gentlemen and a lady with excellent voices who introduce several popular selections, for which encore after en- core is caller, for. To close this exeep- tional vaudeville bill come the Three Blatz. a. trio of perfectly wonderful sharpshoOters, who make one amazing shot after another. The show closes with a sidesplitting Ford Sterling comedy reel that Is a corlzer.
