Kahn. Swedish naturalist, made ex-
periments with American cedar. In
1872 William Monroe made 500 pen
ellis at Concord and sold them in Bos-
ton but the war stopped his plans. In
1861 Eberhard Faber began making
pencils on large scale in this coun-
try.
The graphite which makes the
mark is of course the important part
III the manufacture of the pencil.
Ceylon has furnished much of the gra-
phite used in this country. Graphite
is also found in Madagascar and in
Mexico. Czechoslovakia contains de-
posts of both the amphorous and the
crystalline graphite. In the United
States the chief deposits are in Ala

their rifles and machine guns did
deadly work. The Turks, then with

back.
Are they coming back ?" the dis

peating. Only the Greek troops could
answer.
Three Greek divisions of infantry
were now pouring a merciless stream
OF fire into the Turkish ranks. They
soon were joined by the cavalry.
Slowly the Kemalists began to yield
their ground. By this time they were
outnumbered two to one by the Greeks
and the odds were becoming greater
Mortals could not stand such re-
lentless barrage of bullets. Kemal
put up brave and determined fight
but it was apparent he had not reck.

creased, the Turkish lines began tt

turned and fled toward the mountains
The Greek forces swept on and drov,
the remainder into the recesses Of
the mountains. It was day o.

After the battle it was found tn,

THE INDISPENSABLE
LEAD PENCIL

Where do all the lead pencils come
from and where do they go? Although
almost everybody has one, many folks
never buy one, but even so, more than
75O, O00, 600 are manufactured for use
i'll the United States every year, US
ing up many thousands of cords of
wood.
But woods suitable for lead pencils
are becoming scarcer and many manu-
fasfwers are turning to paper. Red
cedar and red juniper, says the Amer
lean Forestry Association, are the
woods chiefly used in making lead
pencils. A hunt is on for other kinds
of wood that will take the place of
these. In East Africa a kind of cedar
has been found with which expert
ments are being made. The produc-
tion IN the United States is about
$4,000 cases of pencil Stats per year.
From each case 100 gross of pencils
is made. 7 his results in about one
billion pencils of American grown
cedar. Since one-fourth of this num-
Der is sent to foreign countries that
leaves 75OJ10O,O 900 pencils for the home
market, which means an average OF
seven percils per person figuring on
the last census.
As far back as history goes man has
tried to make things to mark with
and to set down his thoughts. The
Aztecs and the Pharoahs had crude
/ marking devices. AS early as 175(

a week a least fully to acquaint Car
