Cleveland Clinic

"The opening of the Cleveland clinic is an epoch making step in American medical progress.' These were the words spoken by Dr. William J. Mayo, honored as the statesman of medicine by his colleagues, in his dedicatory ac- dress upon the occasion of the formal opening of that institution. Equipped W ith every device known to science for the correct diagnosis of human ail- ments, the splendid edifice, with grounds and furnishings costing well over $500, 900, Is designed to serve as q clearing house of the latest and best developments in all branches of the healing arts. Here. according to the Popular Mechanics Magazine, where the Institution is described with illustra- : tions, the claims of all systems of all leviating or curing human maladies will be given impartial, scientific analysis, and the true in each will re- ceive official sanction and recognition. It is this breadth of vision on the part of its founders which is destined to insure Cleveland clinic a unique place in the records of institutions dedicated to similar purposes.

Moving a Baseball Park

PrOpr1etOrS or a Los Angeles DaSe- tall park were recently notified that q street, to be opened by the city. would pass through portion of their ground says Popular Mechanics in an illustrated article. Rather than move the ball park from its well ad- vertised location. the owners acquired strip of land adjoining the old site, and planned to move the grounds some 200 feet east so that most of the ex- is.ing park could still be used.
 The grandstand and bleachers were cut Into 100-foo sections, and heavy timbers were then run around the base and bolted together, forming a con meeting support. The stands were then jacked up and moved to the new To- cation in the same manner as house.
 Another contractor undertook to move the grass infield of the grounds Consequently the new season found the entire ball park practically the same as it was last year, although situate l about 200 feet farther east.

 Sizing Up Character
 From The Mythology and Science oi
 Character Analysis" by Henry Foster
 Adams in the Scribner.
 Whenever two human beings have worked or played together each has tried to read the riddle of the others per sonality. The desire for knowledge con cerning the characteristics of persons has grown stronger with the passing years and has gained in practical importance with the complexity of modern living.
 The ability to size people up is of fun damental importance from the persona standpoint, for upon the accuracy of our judgments depends a large part of ouI happiness In choosing friends or those who are to occupy an even closer rela- tionship much depends upon first impress sions If these are untenable, our self pride is humbled our Judgment is belit- tied, and we suffer all the heartaches of betrayed condolences and broken friend ships.
 On the business side, too, getting the right person for the right position has always been exceedingly difficult Thert are isolated instances of men-Pericles in Greece, Julius Caesar in Rome, Wash ington and Lincoln in this countrywide have had the knack of picking able sub- ordinates Few have this gift, how ever. and for years the customary method of vocational selection has been to hire a random and fire" the unfit One manu' featuring concern, for example, foune that to keep 1000 men on the pay roi it was necessary to hire 5000 annually The time and money spent in training the elusive 1000, at about $50 a person. wa an economic waste. This is not an iso lated instance; business literature is ful of similar cases.
 Nor is the employer the only one m jured; hardship is inflicted upon the em ploye. for a considerable portion or hl life may be wasted before he finds hi true calling Even more pathetic IS tn i one who has spent years in preparing TO profession, possibly to maintain famli traditions or to satisfy the whim Of narent only to find eventually that is A round peg in a square hole.

 The trailer with complete camping outfit installed, weighed about 2500 pounds--almost as much as the car
 The manufacturer of a high-priced automobile advised MT. Turner against making the attempt, saying 1t was i'm possible for a passenger car to pull any trailer over such a long, hard grind-much less a load equal to it's own weight.
 The route was through Indianapolis, Louisville, Nashville, Gadsden, Atlanta and Gainesv to LaBelle, Fla, with side trips to Lincoln Farm and Nam moth Cave, in Kentucky.
 People along the route said the FL gin was the first car that ever pulled such a load across the mountains.

Waste Apples Yield Syrup

A new extraction process converts the juice of even the most intensely acid varieties of apples into sweet. rich syrup, which Is entirely suitable as a base for flavoring extracts and for many other purposes. A valuable by-product of the process is a com pound, known as calcium malate, which is identical with the so-called sugar sand" hitherto derived from maple syrup exclusively This com pound forms the basis of malic acid. and was valued at $1.50 per pound. and more. before the war. At present. the only plants employing the process are located in Nova Scotia. but, as 1t util- izes fruit which is now being allowed to go to waste to the extent of hun dreds of thousands of tons a year. 1t is to be expected and hoped. says the Popular Mechanics Magazine. that the method will come into wide general use within the near future.

Mechanical Bull on Wheels

Bullfghting as a sport is so important part of life in Spain that school in Madrid suburb Is devoted to training young toreadors and matadors in the dangerous art. The apparatus used, as described and illustrated in Popular Me chanics Magazine, consists of a massive block of wood roughly shaped like the head and shoulders of bull, equipped with real horns, and mounted on pair of rubber-tired wire wheels. By means of a handlebar at the rear. the instructor plunges this formidable machine toward the student, who must learn to avoid the menacing horns while making effective use of his lances. Swinging quickly on it's light carriage, the mechanical bull makes a most realistic imitation of an enraged animal.
