THE DISCOVERY OF OXYGEN

Oxygen was discovered lao years
ago today. Joseph Priestley, dissent
ing English clergyman who had turn
ed scientist, obtained the hitherto un-
known gas by igniting mercuric OK
ide. The oxygen he thus produced he
called 'dephlogistigated air. He and
Benjamin Franklin had often discus
sed the mysterious composition of
air and water. No one up to that time
had determined what element it. was
in both which so invigorated the ply
steal energies of man. 1t is said that
Priestley made his actual discovery
of the oxygen while experimenting in
a brewery near his home in Eng
land. He spent the last ten years of
his life in the United States, volun-
tary exile.

only gas capable of supporting respi-

go to ocean depths, the aviator to as

stand in dense smoke, and rescurers
to descend into gas-filled mines. So
wide are its uses that some 100000
cubic feet of this gas are bottled in

Packard truck from the Macarthur
for the same, and in so doing he is
the third party in Arizona to come
to a like decision, and purchase
Packard trucks. The other two
firms are the Phelps Dodge COM

truck and the Standard Oil company
which purchased five-ton truck.

tanned by the Macarthur brothers at
