gram was Miss Sarah Nicholson,

clip the following from a Detroit
daily paper:
Miss Sarah Nicholson of the de
partment of public instruction,
Lansing, was featured Friday at
the county teachers institute at
Central high. Miss Nicholson, who
IS introducing the new visual sys-
tenn of arithmetic, oral and mental
which has recently been made a
part of the Michigan state course
of study, has made the usually
dry subject of such interest that the
girls gymnasium was not large
enough to hold all who wanted to
hear her. She spoke twice Friday
morning in the auditorium, having
given four previous talks on the
subject of Arithmetic.
The institute was attended by
over 2 500 teachers each of the
four days, and is said to have been

cial and FIVE unofficial but practical
ly complete, secured by the Mil
waukee Sentinel shows that there

Of this number 120, ,237 were
cast in the republican primaries,
and in the democratic primaries.

The vote according to these fig
ures on governor was:
Republican-Philipp, AZ, 457; Dahl
26, $40; Hatton, %, ,352; Hull. TO-
6SS; Roethe, 12,o17; Utman, g.

The vote on senator was:
Republican-McGovern, So, ,036;
Bancroft, 25,732; Morris, IS, ,564;
Estabrook, 6,3l6; Burke, 1864;

An agreement has been made between

bureau and the radium extracted.
The institute has secured the right to

these claims are owned by commercial
companies. The agreement calls for re
turning to the owners of the mines the
uranium and vanadum content, after
treatment of the ores. the bureau and in
stitute retaining the radium content.
To put it briefly, the institute is To-
furnish the money to get the raw ma
terial for radium and to manufacture
it, and the bureau is to do the work.
Then the institute takes the finished
product and uses it for medicinal pur-
poses.

has been found curative is wide TIL"

known to promote the growth and de
velopment of healthy cells in the human
structure and to cause the decay of NOR
bid cells Hence the value in cancer
cases. Further, those rays promote the
activity Of digestive fluids. They increas'
the excretions of uric acid. and theN
reduce the blood pressure; effects thai
naturally are beneficial in rheumatism
and blood and stomach disorders.
A cautious, naturally skepticai. cold
blooded scientific investigator, Prof. Par
sons grows unaccustomedly enthusiast
when discussing what the larger pro
duction of radium in this country means
to suffering humanity. But the other
scientific men of the world are eluahl
enthusiastic That is why the price q
radium is advancing so sharply. NO

the fruits of his efforts.
