At the intersection of State, Pine and Congress Streets, o40 drivers of all types of motor vehicleswere asked a short time ago which gaso- line they preferred. The inc vestigator' 8 report, duly sworn to, showed that So- cony, by a score of } to 1 over thesecond choice, ,isunques- tionably the overwhelming favorite among gasoline users in Portland. which confirms results obtained by similar investigations in the principal cities of New York State and New England.

of your home as another. People who try to insulate' themselves by lying down in the folds of a feather bed are taking senseless and ineffec- tua1 precaution. Yet there are a few danger spots. If you are in direct line between two good sized metal objects, such as steam radia- tor and an iron sink, or between eith- CT and a rainspout running up the side of the house, you may be struck by direct or induced flashes of light ming. In seeking an outlet to the ground, lightning has a tendency to jump between two such metallic bod ies, rather than to take a direct course through non-conducting me- diums.
 "A place of special danger Is di- rectly beneath 8 hanging lamp or globe suspended from the ceiling by a chain. n.> Lightning may follow the chain to its end and then jump off. The place where wire clothes line enters a house may also be a danger spot, although I think this has been ver-emphasized.
 Small detached pieces of metal have no effect on the path of light ming, either indoors or out. Last summer a party of golfers. caught in g. thunderstorm, threw away their clubs lest the metal should attract the lightning. TheN fears on this cause were groundless.
 eff you glory in 8 thunderstorm. as I do, you will want to stand at window. or on the front porch and watch it. And here you will be just about as safe as anywhere else.
 "One of the most dangerous of all places out of doors is the shelter of an isolated tree. Such trees are target for lightning. If you were overtaken by a. storm in the vicinity of an isolated tree. 1t might be we'll to lie down near it, but not under it. One of the best refuges out of doors is thick woods. provided you do not seek shelter under a tree that stands out conspicuonsly above the rest. If were caught in an open field, I must confess that l would not lie down in the mud, but would turn my footsteps towards the nearest shelter-serene in the Knowledge that the chances were preponderane against my being struck by light ning.''
 The home1y, but effective. lightning rod, which Benpamin Franklin de- vised and promoted, was endorsed by pr. Steinmetz as probably the best artificial safeguard against lightning that can be found.

Boy Scouts Leave For Hartford

Nineteen Boy Scouts from Camp Rhondon onolia, Norwalk, under the guidance Of two instructors, George M. Feigin and James Magnus, left here late yesterday afternoon to con tinue their hike to Hartford. The boys arrived in Bridgeport Monday night and "bunked" in the rooms or the Third District Republican ciup' through the courtesy of Oscar J. Smith, president.
 Long Hike.a
 The hike is the longest the boys have ever taken, James Magnus, di- rector of the Norwalk camp stated. t'But the boys haven't made any com plaints at all, t.he said "The hike IS doing them a great deal of good. They are getting an opportunity to see the state and learn the ways of the Woou- man. On our hike we don't keep 10 the main roads but we branch out into the country roads and try 10 avoid the large cities. We certainly appreciate the hospitality of the Ihlro o district club. It was rather chilly to sleep out M the open. The boys reel that after their trip is over they Will be ready to plunge into their school work. It is certainly doing the1r health a great deal of good"
 The scouts, after striking Hartford, will swing around through the lower Connecticut valley and then down through New Milford to Norwalk.

Chances Of Being Hit By Lightning
 Are Very Few

How dangerous is lightning? What l are the chances or being hit by a 1 lightning bolt? Where is the safest place during an electrical storm Where Is the most dangerous spot? Most people have asked those ques- | tions, more Or less anxiously, at some time or another. An authoritative answer for each one has not been easy to obtain, although there has been Q large amount of guesswork, resulting in some groundless theories of fancied peril and equally fancied security. But there is now at length an an- swer which is authoritative for every one of those four questions. And the authority Is Dr. Charles P. Stein
