 If you open bottle of water. the air that has been confined at a lower level pops out as if you were opening a bottle of charged water Going higher still-for men have reached an altitude of seven miles-the air is so thin that one must take along oxygen to breathe, the pressure at sea level being 15 pounds. Up here you are subjected to only half the pres sure; you feel lighter than cork; the nerves are drawn taut. If you poke pen- ell or your finger into your skin. the in dentation will remain just like making a hole in piece of putty. Doctors call this "pitting,'' and on the surface of the

 waves of orange. purple and sulphurous yellow stretch across to the cold hues of the east and the silver spIendor of the noon; for 1t is at full moon that long distance balloon races are always ar ranged to take place.

EXPLODING BOMBS
SPREADING TERROR

JUVENILE CASES
ARE MISPLACED
Should Not Be Put on Probate Courts
but Should Be Delegated to Mu-
nicipal Courts, Probate
Judges Think.

A meeting of the Vermont Probate
Judges association was held at Mont
pelier yesterday afternoon, there being
an attendance of eight of the 20 probate
judges in Verpont. Letters We're re-
ceived from three others. The follow
ing officers were elected; President,
Frank j. Martin of Barre; vice president,
H. L. Clark of Castleton; secretary and
treasurer, o. N. Kelton of st. Adams
The judges held discussion of the
methods of procedure in probate court
matters, but no action was taken al
though the idea of having printed rules
for procedure was favored.
The matter of probate courts taking
up Juvenile court matters under the
enactment of the Vermont legislature
in 1912 also was considered, and it was
the concensus of opinion that probate
courts We're not adapted to the handling
Of that sort of court work. It was the
belief that juvenile court matters should
be delegated to municipal court and that
each county should have municipal
'ourt and where there are two or more
courts in county they should
nave concurrent jurisdiction. They also
thought that Juvenile cases should not
'e turned over TO justices of the peace.
