SEEKS CHILDREN O6iN TAKEN FROM HER
 MANY YEARS ACO

Separated from her son and daugh- ter many years ago, Mrs. Mary F.. Eldredge of Chandler has nevS. heard from them since. although she has spent much money and has never ceased in a search for them. The son now is a grown man of 39 years. while the daughter is a women of 36 If they are living.
 The children were born while Mrs. Eldredge, whose name then was Will Hams, was living with her husband in Clay Center, Kansas. While the children were still small, the par ents separated, the father and mother alternating in the custody of the children until finally the court gave the girl into the custody of the mother and permitted the boy to choose which parent he would go with. After a time the boy decided to go with his mother.
 Illness came to the mother. and the father took the children. Since then the mother never heard a word from either of the children nor from the father. The sons name is Louis Will Hams, and the daughters was Anna Williams.
 Mrs. Eldredge asks the assistance of all in the search for her son and daughter. A short time ago a man by the name of Louis Williams lec- tured in Tempe on the subject oi electrical science.
 'I tried to get in touch with this man." writes Mrs E.ldredge. but could not find out where he came from nor where he went I feel as if he is my son.

Department Of
 Public Welfare
 Has Opposition
TRepubIIcan A. p. Leased Wlrel

WASHINGTON, May 11.-Indica- tions that the proposal to create department of public welfare will not have smooth sailing through con- gress were furnished today at initial hearings by senate and house educa- tional committees on the Kenyon bill which embodies the principle of such a department as endorsed by Presi- dent Harding and as worked out at his direction by Brigadier General C. E. Sawyer, his physician.
 General Sawyer was subjected to extensive questioning by committed members who wanted to know if the consolidation of the educational. so- cial and humanitarian bureaus would not add to the number of employees and to governmental expense. The witness contended that through elim- ination of duplication. both the num- Der of employees and the expense would be reduced and promised fig ures to substantiate his assertion.
 The most pronounced opposition however, came from supporters O. the proposal to establish d depart ment of education. Representativbt Towner. republican, of Iowa, author of the department of education bill argued that the educational force. would not be satisfied with division of education in a department of pub lie welfare. General Sawyer. on tn, other hand, declared that many lead ing educators had endorsed the pro posed bureau, and those who would 1 not fall in line evidently did not hay, | the best interests of education a heart

 A year later H. Becquerel. French physicist, observed that certain ura- nium preparations emitted rays re- sen1bling those discovered by Roent- gen. Becquerel rays became the new wonder and by delicate tests were proved to be electrical Thus began the search for the new element and every form of uranium in labora- tories was tested
 Mime. Curie at this point dfverged from the search of other chemists. She went to Carlsbad where pitch blende had been mined for century for the extraction of uranium in making Bohemian glass and beauti- : full dyes Around the mines she found 50 tons of refuse, an analysis of which proved it to be four times as strong in Becquerel rays as the uranium which had been taken from the ore. Mime. Curie by long and tedious processes of extracting lead, silver, tin, bismuth and other metal lie substances from the pile of refuse, dissolved the mass until the residue was 60 times stronger than uranium Dr. Abbe says of this:
 This small remnant glowed in the dark. All but two metals had been eliminated These were known not to have the slightest radio activity. Therefore, there could be but one Mime. Curie was facing a mysterious new force" Two years later she was able to announce it's discovery ard her method of extract sing it from the ore.
