THE RICH MANS SON AT WORK

Sentiment among men of wealth in America is favorable to work. They usually began poor and they know the tonic qualities of daily toll. They re- alize that only through struggle can life's pleasures have real zest. A man does not enjoy luxury much unless he has fought for his position and made 1t with his own hands. The rich man usually wants his boy to strike out somewhere and creates something he can call his own.
 About now, therefore, many of these boys. having finished their education. lare looking for work. They do not have to ask from door to door like their classmates. Some friend usually knows of a favorable opportunity to be had through influence. Often they start in their fathers business.
 They are usually given special chances for advancement. Their friends eee to it that they are not kept grinding at routine tasks year after year in which they get no general knowledge of business. If there is a vacancy. they are apt to be pushed ehead. at
 In other respects 1t is about an even race for everyone. Friendship and pull will open doors of opportunity, but that is all. An equally high stan- dard of work is expected and must lbe achieved. Often the rich mans son has to encounter prejudice and dislike from others who consider that he has been favored. It takes much tact for him. to handle the fellows around him who may be jealous of his Opportunities.
 | Business is 2 great school of dem- ocracy. These young mSA have to learn that social distinctions stop at the mill door. and they bring no busi- ness. Many a fellow who left school a mere helpless pet of his fathers .come out a wholly different creature in few years. He has become ca
 pablo of building his own future and
 has been turned from mere pension
 CT of luxury into an independent pro-
 ducer of wealth of his own. It has
 made a man of him..

is essential that the different types OF
cells be used in the kind of circuit
for which they are intended, in order
that the best results may be obtained
from the cells.
Local Action
In addition to the polarization action
which takes place at the positive plate
there is an action taking place in the
cell, usually at the negative plate,
called local action. This local action
is generally caused by some impurity
i'll the material forming the plate. For
example, suppose there is small
piece of carbon imbedded in the sur
face of the zinc but in contact with
the electrolyte of dilute sulphuric acid.
1t is readily seen that a small voltaic
cell is formed when the piece OF i'm
pure zinc alone is placed in the cleo
trolyte, as there are two different ma
terials immersed in a solution which
acts on one of them more than it does
on the other. The acid will be broken
up into two parts, H2 and SO4, with
positive and negative charges respec-
lively. The SO4 will cling 10 the zinc
and give up its negative charge, and
a part of the zinc will combine with
the SO4 to form zinc sulphate, ZnSO4.
The hydrogen goes to the piece Of car
bon and charges it positively, instead
of going over to a second or positive
plate. AS result of the presence Of
the impurity in the zinc small cell is
formed and the zinc is consumed, but
there is not terminal voltage, as the
carbon and zinc are in direct contact
with each other and a short circuit is
formed
Eiectroehemieal Equivalent
The rate at which the negative plate
of voltaic cell is consumed depends
upon how much current is passing
through the battery. Ii the plate is
pure, there will be no chemical action
when there is no current through the
cell and hence no metal will be con-
sumed The rate at which the mega
tive plate is consumed depends upon

pressure of the cell is decreased.
In order that a cell may operate sat
isfactorily, 1t is desirable that the
hydrogen gas be removed in some
manner from the positive plate, and
this process is called depolarization
There are various methods employed
to depolarize cell and these methods
give rise to the various forms of pri.
mary cells.
One of the most common methods is
to Introduce into the electrolyte some
chemical, called depolarizer, which
has an excess Of oxygen in It, The ex-
cess oxygen in the depolarizer readily
combines with the hydrogen on the po-
sitiye plate and forms water, whose
chemical symbol is H2O.
II the action Of the depolarizer is
rapid. which results in the hydrogen
gas being removed as fast as 1t tends
to accumulate on the positive plate,
there will be no decrease in the pres
sure between the two plates of the cell
even though 1t be operated continu-
ously. A cell Of this kind is called a
closed circuit cell. -. .=.r:. .....-
II the action Of the depolarizer is
less rapid and there is a gradual accu.
mutation Of hydrogen on the positive
plate regardless of the action of the
depolarizer, there will be a decrease
in the pressure between the two plates
of the cell when there is current
through the cell, and as a result the
cell may be used only internationally
in order to allow the oxygen in the de-
polarizer time to clear the hydrogen
from the surface of the positive plate.
A cell of this kind is called an open
circuit cell The ordinary dry cell is
a good example Of the open circuit
type of cell. and it is a well known
fact that the voltage OF dry cell
will decrease when connected to cir
cult continuously ~*=@ ..% =.

HUNDRED PER CENT GIVEN
TO CADILLAC ROADSTER

Different communities usually have
different standards, to a certain -ex'
tent, by which to Judge motor car per-
Torrance. In fiat or level sections OF
the country, with good roads, for ex-
ample, people are interested chiefly
in a cars powers Of acceleration, its
speed, and like features Where the
roads are not SO good, people look es-
pecially for stamina and the ability
to negotiate Rough going with ease
and comfort Power and hill-climbing
ability, in addition to the foregoing.
are among the qualities chiefly sought
in hilly or mountainous country.
Chattanooga, Tenn, is in such a Sec
ton, and its fayorite climb Is Signal
mountain. If car makes the Signal
mountain climb on high gear, as the
new Cadillac Eight did the other day,
it is given 100 per cent rating in pub
lie estimation.
The Cadillac wGs fresh from the fac.
tory, having been driven but little
more than so miles. From the heart
of Chattanooga TO the crest OF Signal
mountain was made on high gear. The
pace at the beginning Of the climb
was three miles an hour. On the way
up several difficulties were enconn-
tered in the way of partly blockaded
roadway and meeting several down
coming cars at sharp, steep turns. Yet
it was not necessary at any time TO
shift gears

symbol for copper, and In for zinc.
Water is composed of two parts OF
hydrogen, whose chemical symbol is
H, and one part of oxygen, whose
chemical symbol is o, and. according
ly, water is represented chemically by
the symbol, HzO.
Sulphuric acid is composed of two
parts Of hydrogen, one part of sulphur,
whose chemical symbol is S, and four
parts OF oxygen. Accordingly it is lep-
resented chemically by the symbol,
H2SOi.
The snlphuric acid acts chemically
upon the zinc, and the acid is broken
up into two parts, H2 and SO4. At the
same time the chemical action is taxi
ing place in the cell there is certain
amount of electrical activity present.
In this particular case the two parts of
the acid, H2 and SO4, are charged
with positive and negative electricity
respectively when they are separated.
The SO4 part possesses a negative
charge and hangs on to the zinc plate,
giving to the zinc plate a negative
charge and at the same time combin-
ing with part of the zinc, In.
Action Of Chemicals
You can think of the zinc which
combines with the SO4 part of the sui
phuric acid as taking the place of the
HI part Of the acid and making a new
compound, called zinc sulphate and
represented chemically by the symbol
ZnSO4. This zinc sulphate is dissolved
