Helium non-explosive ballopn-ga
now available in the world would
have been entirely inadequate to lit
the ZR-2, the dirigible that was to
have been the nucleus OF America s
air navy. according to a statement to-
day by Prof. II. p. Cady, of the Univ
ersity OF Kansas department OF
chemistry. Doctor Cady discovered
that helium was a constituent OF the
natural gas of Kansas, Oklahoma and
Texas, and performed notable ex-
periments in the early DAYS OF the
World War in developing processes
for the commercial production of
helium g
Before the war, he said. probably
not more than hundred cubic feet
OF this gas had been obtained in q
fairly pure state, and that was for
experimental purposes, secured at a
cost OF $500 to $4,000 a cubic foot.
Total production after extensive ex-
periments by the United States Gov
ernment probably does not exceed
100000 cubic feet up to the present.
but while the cost OF production has
been reduced greatly. still this cost,
compared to the cost OF hydrogen,
commonly used for Initiating ball
oons, is tremendously high.
1T is not strange. then" said Toe.
tor Cady, that England used the
comparatively inexpensive hydrogen
for the zR-2. During the experiment.
al stages the gas bags had to be
emptied at times to allow changes in
structure. Practically the only place
to get the helium Is from the natur-
al gas of Kansas, Oklahoma and Tex. |
as, and thus far processes OF reduc-
tion have not been perfected. Only
one per cent or less Of the natural
gas is helium, and this helium has
TO be refined TO purity of 80 per-
cent or better before 1t has the non
quality demanded for
the safety in balloon construction.
Il am inclined to fhink helium
never will come into general use for
commercial airships, IL such vehicles
become common. The limited guam
tity OF the material, its high cost,
and its value in war balloons will
probably make 1t imperative for the
government to reserve all helium for
its own use"
Doctor Cady explained that even
the best balloon covers did not pre-
vent entirely the escape of the lift
ing gases, and II 1t is necessary con-
stantly to supply fresh gas. This is
more true of hydrogen than of he'll
ium, but the wastage is there. and
the continued operation of even
small fleet of war balloons would
demand a constant supply Of fresh
helium. Experiments at the Univer
sity of Kansas showed that the he'll
ium must be nearly 80 per cent pure
In order to be safe. Similar expert
ments in Canada showed compara-
lively small explosions when mix
lures containing only 75 per cent of
helium were ignited.
The attempts to produce helium
in commercial quantities In the Unit
ed States date from 1916. The year
before, the English government had
sought samples of gas from America

FIRST WHITES
SEE ARAPHOE
RITUAL DANCE

GEARY, Okla, Oct. THE "Of-
fering Dance of the Arapaho In
dians OF Oklahoma, which closed
here late in August, was witnessed
and chronicled by the paleface for
what is believed to be the first
time. The offering dance Is the
final ceremonials to be borne by
candidates for the highest degree In
the strongest religious fraternity Of
the tribe.
The ritual was witnessed by q
party Of Oklahoma City physicians
and nurses who visited the encamp-
n,ent of Arapahoes. who were being
visited by the Comanches, Chey-
ennes and Kiowas. during q study
'of skin diseases Of the Indians be-

Six white persons in all witnessed
the ceremony. More than 1000 In

In preparation for the Offering
Dance. also called the WILLOWS
Dance" huge lodge was construct
ed about 75 feet in diameter. 1t
took several days to complete the
lodge. according to members OF the
tribe las each pole going into its
construction was blessed separately
by tribal priests.
Guard lines were thrown out by
the Indians so that no unlimited
eye could witness their ceremony.
Clever Warden. the lecturer, said
the foundation for the order ex-
tends so far back that. according to
tribal interpreters. the moons
which have elapsed since that time
have gone from the memory even of
tradition, and the tradition legend
extends back hundreds OF seasons"
Candidates for initiation may
make application to join, after they
have committed some extraordinar-
lily brave act: have been fearless in
leadership, renowned in politics of
the tribe or in some way distin-
guished themselves greatly, the in
terpreter told the physicians. -
Two Of the candidates were vet
erans of the world war. One had
been seriously wounded. Directly
east Of the center pole an altar fire,
or sacred fire, as It was called, was
kindled. Half dozen warriors
beat rythmically on tom-tom dar-

two days and then offerings for the

MUST PAY TRIBUTE TO ART
Not In Admiration, But in Current
Coin, Is the Edict of the French
Authorities.

After all these years of luxurious
idleness the Venus de Milo must be-
come wage Garner. The authorities
of France have so decreed. And not
only Venus, but Mona Lisa and all the
other celebrities gathered in the
Louvre, and in the Luxembourg and
other galleries as WELL For the fat
has gone forth recently that hereafter
those who have been accustomed to
visit the museums of Paris day after
day, finding their treasures free as
air, must pay an admission fee. If
you want to 20 to admire Venus in her
crimson velvet secluslon you must pay
for the privilege. To be sure, she is
worth any price, you must admit. And
when you go into the Salon Care Of
the Louvre and stop TO mediate about
what the enigmatical Mona Lisa is
meditating, you must pay for that, too.
Not separate admission for each de-
partment. No, they are all banded to-
gether in one big union, as 1t were,
all those priceless treasures of each
museum, and hereafter they will earn
their keep.

Princess Mary Makes
Her First Appearance
With Lord Lascelles

London. November 24.-Princess
Mary today made her first public APP
pearance with Lord Lascelles, her
fiance, since their betrothal, when the
two left Buckingham palace this aft
ernoon in an open carriage with
Queen Mary for drive through Hyde
park. Although the news that they
were to drive out only became known
shortly before their departure, quite
large crowd assembled in the vi
cinity of Buckingham palace and
cheered the royal party heartily as
the carriage drove away. Crowds
quickly gathered along the route and
made the drive partake of the nature
of triumphal progress, much to the
perceptibIe embarrassment of Prin-
cess Mary and the apparent satisfac-
ton of the Queen and Lord Lascelles.
The Queen and the princess had
luncheon with Lord Lascelles at his
home, Chesterfield house, which will
eventually be the home of Princess
Mary.
1t is reported that invitations
would be issued to several European
monarchs to attend the wedding,
which II is believed will occur in
Westminster abbey.
The Kings of Spain, Norway, Italy
Denmark, Sweden and Belgium pos
sibly will attend. -.-.-.---.-.-..
The wedding reception. which
probably will be held in st. James
palace, will be one of the most not
able functions of its kind ever held,
necessitating almost immediate meas
ures for overhauling some OF the
principal reception rooms.
