TWO WAYS IN WHICH TO
MAKE TEST FOR OIL

All that looks like oil is not oil In
these days Of such intense interest in
oil discoveries. any blush film on the
surface of pool is cften m staken for
petroleum.. This oil-like film is usu-
ally more noticeable on stagnant wa
ter and is generally a bacterial scum.
But to know for sure, the matter can
be put to the test.
To determine whether scum is
bacteria CT oil, take stick and gent
~ break the scum apart. Bacterial
scum will break up and not join again
butoi! scum will spread and then come
together again. Geolo ogists state this
Is an excellent test. Another test is
to le a drop fall on a hot stove cover.
IT 1t Is oil it will smell Of it. People
who have visions of sudden wealth can
thus easily ascertain whether their
dreams will materialize or not.--Path-

Hoover is little more CONSPICUOUS

the query of William Shakespeare:
"Shall quips and sentences and these
paper bullets of the brain awe a
man from the career of his humor?"
The famous Secretary of Commerce

paper bullets are like those of other

CITIES CAN'T CHANGE

funds with which to carry on the
vocational schools are final and not
subject to review by local councils
the supreme court held Tuesday in
reversing the decision of the cir
cult court, which upheld the mayor
and aldermen of the city of Beaver
Dam.
The opinion given by Chief JUS
ice r. G. Siebecker held that the
legislature had not intended to give
city councils power to change the
request of local boards of vocation
al education for funds, nor could
they require the boards to make an
itemized report of the way in
which they expended the funds
granted.
The vocational board of Beaver
Dam had requested $14,361.66 and
the council granted $5,724. This
action was upheld by the circuit
court, but reversed on final appeal.

CARDINAL GIBBONS.

ONLY the other day attention
was fixed upon the creation OF an
other American Cardinal. Today
there is widespread mourning at
the death of the venerable senior
prelate of that rank. Nor is it by
any means confined to the commun-
ion to which he belonged. He COM
manded during his long career the
respect and confidence of men of all
creeds and faiths, and they all re-
greet his loss.
Churchman, Christian, Americans:
Those were the prime characteristics
of James, Cardinal Gibbons; inse-
parably united in a threefold cord
of strength. His orthodoxy and his
ecclesiastical authority were never
questioned; nor was there anybody
more accurately representative OF
his church than he. His exempli-
fication of the chief virtues of Chris
tianity was noteworthy and convin-
cling. His devotion to America and
American institutions was fervent
and unceasing, in time of war and
in time of peace, and it was often
tremendously effective.
We have said that these three
characteristics of the man We're
closely and inseparably intertwined.
Yet they were at the same time in
a noteworthy degree separate or
separable from each other. Stall
wart as was his Guardianship, his
Christianity commanded the confid-
ence of m illions of outside of his
denomination. Intense as was his
patriotism, it was not coupled up in
any way with ecclesiasticism.
During the war his fervent spirit
made him of much value to the AM
erican Government and to the cause
of civilization throughout the world.
At that time and since he was no
less serviceable to various civic and
domestic causes of the highest i'm
portance. The parlor Bolshevist
and the public "Reds" were alike OBJ
jects of his scathing condemnation.
Nor was there ever any occasion for
doubt and uncertainty as to his at
titude and course. He was always
on the side of his church and of his
country; and of the right.
