What Are Traditions?

Traditions handed down are to the
effect that Christ appointed st. Peter
TO be the first Pope; that Peter went
to Rome; was cruciied with his head
downward; and he received the key of
heaven and hell and power to forgive
all sins and by his laying on of hands
and commissions gives that power to
the bishops and the bishops give that
power to the priest at his ordination;
also the priest is given the power to
convert the whole substance of the
bread into the body and the wine into
the blood, called Characterization
All such doctrines came down from
pagan tradition and are made Church
laws by councils.
So you see Bibles are not needed.
The Gideons are not needed according
to the Church Council.
James (C~ardinal) Gibbons, Apostolic
Delegate, by his signature, at Balti-

Dr. LiIIienfeId Discovers Principle

EXPERTS PLEASED WITH IT
Scientists Who Have Experimental
With New Tube Believe With Doc.
tor LiIienfeld 7aat II Makes
Roentoepology Exact Science.

New York.--By the invention of an
X-ray tube based on comparatively
simple principle, roentgenology prom
ises, for the first time since ROentgen
discovered the mysterious rays that
bear his name, quarter OF q century
ago, to be an exact science. The In.
ventor Is DIR. Julius Lillienfeld, pro-
fessor Of physics at the University OF
Leipzig He is also inventor of the
X-ray tube that has been In general
use In Europe for the last decade, and
which from now on will be superseded
by his more recent discovery. Ex'
perts who have experimental with II
believe as he does.
Doctor Lillienfeld is In New York,
having arrived from Europe few
weeks ago. He has already given a
public demonstration Of his new tube
In the presence OF Prof. George Pc
gram. and Professor Davis at the de-
partment Of physics Of Columbia uni
versity and before the New York
Roentgen society.
Doctor Lillienfeld explained the
principles of his invention to a Times
reporter. He said his discovery was
not only of interest to the medical pro-
fession and physicists, but to makers
OF wireless and all audion apparatus
and amplifying devices.
"In order to explain the principle Of
this new tube" said Doctor Lillienfeld,
ut Will be necessary TO recapitulate
the history of X-ray tubes and to tell
the manner in which X-rays are gener-
ated.
What EIeetrons Are.
Let us begin with the electron: II
is the smallest known component of
matter and Is always associated with
an unyarylng unit charge of negative
electricity. The atom Of hydrogen Is
the smallest atom known. Yet an
electron is but 10000 part Of the hy-
drpgen atom. These electrOns are al
ways In motion. IL Is supposed by
some that chemical atoms consist Of
collections of electrons having orbital
motions In sphere Of positive elec-
triflcatlon. Others ascribe them to
disturbance Of the ether.
IAN electron striking any matter,
rrget or surface produces X-rays.
The electrons must have speed, and,
Indeed, they move with incredible ra-
pidlty. They are negatively. charged
particles Of electricity. There are
three factors, therefore. connected
with the production of X-rays. They
are electron, motion and the target

THE electrons associated with that
piece of metal" he continued, "are be-
meath its surface and are retained
there by some superficial force. TC

irons out Of the metal through, the co

were imprisoned in his glass tube In

In actual practice and the electrons
were readily pulled out. 1 might add
that In this method the electrodes

closely together.
"The application. OF the principle 10
not limited to the production OF X
rays 1t can be applied to all ampli-
flying and audion devices and for gen.
Grating electromagnetic waves for
wireless. The tube is less expensive
than the heated ones because II con-
tains no hot filaments and, therefore,
no transformer Is needed to supply
