SAN DIEGO, Calf, August 2l.--
American youths must have their
good times on the Volstead side OF
the international boundary-at least
! so far as southern California is con-
cerred.
San Diego county, so decreed today.
He declared an embargo on unchaper-
oned minors at the customs gate to
Tia Juana. sixteen miles south of
here, and now will urge that similar
action be taken at all border cities.
According to SalIee. scores of fyoung-
sters-boys and girls--haye been en-
tering Mexico in search Of pleasures
banned this side of the line. All
southern California cities have con-
tributed to the quota. Many have
been high school boys and girls, who
have tried TO week end" in Tia Ju-
ana. The Mexican city, he says, is
no place for American minors.
Two Boys Rescued.
Two high school lads from Santa
Monica. who had been attending
reserve officers training camp. have
just been rescued from the Mexican
quartet through Sallee's efforts. They
wore parts of their uniform across
the line and were arrested and Jailed
as soldiers.
A fourteen-year-ol girl. from a
San Diego suburb. eloped across the
boundary with a atwenty-one-year- -old
Mexican last week and was married
by the jefe politico of Tia Juana. The
child is ward of the county and will
be taken from her young husband if
she comes back across the line.

intoxicated condition when they got
back here. The mother of the girl
has had the boy arrested. In all there
lave been total of seventy-f1vc mi

courts here as 4 result of trips
across the border and it is this con-
dition that has aroused Sallee-
Homes Too Ls1ient.
"Carelessness and too much liberty
in the American homo are behind all
this" said the probation officer to-
day. "Jazz, liquor in the homes and
automobiles at the free disposal OF
children all do their part. But care
leSsnesS on the part OF parents Is the
chief cause.
Here's an illustrations:
"a Seattle woman drove down to
the border few days ago with her
fifteen-year- old daughter The wom-
an checked her valuables at the bor-
der, but took her daughter with her
When they came back at night the
child-she had just Celebrated her fif-
teeuth birthday-was in i drunken
stupor. The mother was arrested for
contributing to juvenile delinquency.
But We didn't have the legal require
ments to make the charge stick. The
mother was the wife of 4 big lumber
man, but that's all she cared FOX her
daughter.
when folks take as good care OF
their children as they do of their
valuables we won't have to halt our
f1appers at the border. They won't be
going there"

Why We Hear Radio Music

The space between the earth and
the sun is absolutely void-airless.
Yet we see the sun and the stars
proof that light must travel through
something that is not air and yet
something that fills all space. This
l-pervading something was called
the "ether." Electrical energy, like
light, travels through the ether in
waves.
II we think of electric waves in
the ether as a kind of invisible light,
we shall go far toward understanding
the mechanism of radio communica-
ton. These waves have extraordin-
airy powers of penetration. They
flash through space with the speed
Of light-at one hundred and eighty
six thousand miles a second, and that
is why the song trilled hundreds of
miles away reaches us instantaneous
~. At this very moment they ripple
through the house in which you sit,
through the paper that you hold in
your hands, through your very body.
It Is not the voice that is sent out
on the ether in radio broadeasting
The process is much the same as that
which occurs when we talk oven a
telephone wire; only, in radio, the
ether is the wire.
This ether, of which we will all
soon talk glibly, is restless, ripping,
invisible ocean in which stars, plan
cts, human beings, mountains and
household furniture are immersed.

How Ammonia Got Its Name

Ammonia received it's name from q
building near the place where it was
first made. Arabian chemists first
produced ammonia by heating the
dung of camels and the name was
given to it because the Temple of
Jupiter Ammon was close to the
place where the discovery was made.
One of these old Arabian chemists
is credited with being the father OF
chemistry. Like thousands Of his
countrymen. he spent a lot of time
trying to make pure gold out of
something else, but in these expert
ments he discovered many things
useful in the world today.
He discovered, for instance, that
il you boil water the vapor (steam)
will rise; that YOU can collect it in
another vessel; that when cooled it
will turn to water again and that 1t
will then be absolutely pure, because
none of the gold matter present in
the ordinary, such as sand or salt,
would turn into yapor.
Gerbers greatest discovery, how
ever, was that Of the strong acids,
without which most of our chemical
results today would be impossible.
He found that by heating copper a.
