offer was made by Pittsburg capitalist.
Mr.. Bishop has been at the Mellon In
sttute since January / last. He got a
degree OF doctor of science in 1912 at
Queens University. Kingston. Ont.
The value Of the new fertilizer, he says.
lies in the fact that 1t can be produced

The first Ideas for the process came to
Mr.. Bishop while he was chemist at the

golfers are chuckling over an incident
which occurred last Saturday morning
while President Wilson and DIR. Cary
Grayson were playing n round OF golf
at the Washington Suburban Club.
The President Is partial to the course
OF the Washington Country Club, which
lies on the Virginia Hills. overlooking
the Potomac. and he has become such a
faithful follower of the course there that
the other golfing organizations have felt
sighted. To remove this feeling he de-
cided to vary his trips and play at all the
clubs for "A time.

he chose Saturday. has membership
made up largely of prominent business
and professional men. When the Pres-

when Mr., Wilson reached him he was blue

Then the man discovered he was adj

and humility and profuse in his apol-

Mr. Wilson, extremely put out that any
man should so resent one OF his long
drives, ordered his caddy to pick up his
ball and carry 1t with his clubs TO the
clubhouse. He quit the course then and
there.
Tho member OF the club, when he saw
how angry the President was, immed-
