Mood Tar Oil Uses.

The oils that are obtained from the
distilIatiOn of wood tar can be used as
substitutes in the place of various veg
etable and mineral oils in much the
same manner as the oils obtained from
the distillatiOn of coal tar and Ignite
tar. However, in order to make the
wood tar oils available for use in this
manner it is necessary to treat them
chemically so as to deacidify them and
destroy their tendency to oxidize
easily. Two processes for accom-
plishing this are described in SEIZE,
1922, page 633. In both processes the
oil fraction. recovered at $50 degrees
C, is treated with caustic lime and air
Is blown through it at the same time
until the oil will no longer absorb oxy-
gen from the air. The water is then
removed and the oil is distilled, yield
ing a product which is entirely free
from acidity and which will no longer
Oxidize in the air. It Is accordingly
available for use as lubricant

Expensive Appetite.

Following a recent raid near JEFF
fersonville, at which a 25-gallon still
was seized and brought into court,
the alleged owner faced trial in the
Jeffersonville city court. Several gall
Ions of whisky had been seized at the
same time. The defendant asserted
that he was making the liquor for his
own consumption. Asked how much
he required, he replied: 1.-TWO gallons
a week. The chief of police made
hasty calculation. THAT would be 10
drinks a day." he whispered to the
prosecuting attorney, 'and big ones
at that" Apart from regarding ehis
an expensive luxury in these days,
court attaches believed that the man
who attempted the feat would be in
the hospital about the third day and
in the grave at the end of the week.

FEW BAREFOOT BOYS SEEN
Writer Recalling joys of the Past
Has Only Pity for the
Modern Youth.

Is the barefoot boy vanishing In
stitution in our cities? A travelling
salesman sends this letter to the Hav-
erhill (Mass.) Gazette:
II make hundreds Of towns and
cities, selling my goods, and it strikes
me that each year | see fewer and
fewer barefoot boys. Of course there
still are many, padding about with
out shoes, particularly in the smaller
towns. But / am wondering If the
time is far off when the barefoot boy
will be a curiosity In the big cities.
You can travel miles now without see
ing lad with stubbed toe bound
up in wad of cloth. When I was
a boy youngster wearing shoes and
stockings in summer was so scarce
that people when they saw one won
dered what was wrong with him."
Many of the rest of US have noticed
the gradual passing of the barefoot
boy. City pavements are too hot for
the unprotected foot. 1t is big loss
for the youth. How big a loss is
known only to the grownup who in
memory has the delightful recollec-
ton of bare feet padding through
thick August dust Of a country road
Or wiggling deliciously in mud pud-
dies and ruts after a rain. "Them
were the days."
Another institution of which youth
is being robbed in the cities is the
alley.
Real estate is too valuable to waste
on alleys. Blocks are being laid out
smaller. The short garage drive from
the curb has taken the place Of the
alley.
Oh grievous loss! What would boy
hood have been like years ago, with
out the alleys through which we ex-
plored gathering scrap iron and bones
in dirty old burlap bag for the
junkman? High board fences were
along those alleys, to keep youthful
pirates out of orchards at the back
of yards large enough to play a ball
game in.
The alleys are passing. So are the
tall back fences. So are the huge
back yards. A garage and a strip Of
half-dead grass the size of a living
room rug are all that separate the
typical modern city house from the
neighbOr on the street in the rear
Youth on the pavements, lodging the
auto maniacs who curse them and
wonder why parents don't keep their
brats off the Streets
We grownups talk a lot about the
discomforts of metropolitan conges-
ton. But it is youth that is footing
the lions share of the bill Another
fifty years of progress" and there
will not be any such thing as boy
hood in the cities. Babies will be
handed radio outfits and other paci-
fiers when they begin wondering
what's beyond the walls of the house.
We're fortunate now, to be getting
old.

Quest For Elk Teeth Threatens

ing as the once vast herds of elk
dwindle and are threatened with ex-
tinction, according to the biological
survey. The hunters receive high
prices for the teeth.
A few years ago the wearing of
aigrettes for hat trimming threatened
the annihilation Of one of our most
beautiful birds, but through aroused
public opinion a halt was caused in
time to save the birds. Unless the
market for elk teeth is curbed before
it Is too late. it is declared. It will
mean the determination Of our elk,
the most magnificent of deer. A fuller
understanding of the history and
price paid for elk teeth will have an
influence in depreciating the market
and thus removing the incentive for
this wanton slaughter. the department

Don't buy elk teeth for watch

is the plea of the Department of Agrt-

such teeth is the life of a member Of
the country's small and fast diminish
ing herds.
They are very pretty ornaments and
for many years have been used by
Indians, especially the squaws. for
that purpose: but the difference is
that the Indians used only the teeth
from animals slaughtered for food
and their hides, while the white man
kills the elk. extracts the two teeth
and wastes the rest.
Thousands of bull elk have been
killed in the Yellowstone Park region
by hunters who illegally poach upon
the government preserves. and. de-
spite the vigilance of rangers and
