If an earthquake takes place at thte

own record on the dedicate instru-
ments at Georgetown University, at

Next morning you will see In the
papers that the instruments have re-
corded an earthquake of great VOL

lea. 1t may be days before news comes
through by telegraph from the scene
Of the upheaval to confirm the instru-
ments message.
The seismograph. as the earthquake
recorder is called, consists of a re-
volving drum and tiny mirror. The
latter is balanced so dellcately that
the slightest tremor Of the earth's
crust will lset it dancing. The drum,
which is turned by clockwork, is COW
cred with a roll Of sensitized photo
graphic paper. The mirror focuses a
little point of light, reflected from a
brilliant lamp, on to tthe paper.
So long as nothing is happening the
mirror remains at rest, and as the
drum revolves a perfectly straight
line is traced on the paper by the
point Of light. But as soon as shock
occurs the mirror is agitated and the
line becomes zigzag

Cow Moose SkiIfuI Boxer,

In the northern and western forest
regions of Canada the snow piles deep
ly throughout the winter. In these
forests roams the king of the deer
family, the moose. To combat the high
piling drifts, the animals gather in
little bands of from three to a dozen
head and trample down the snow over
certain limited areas. Thus, when the
snow lies all around them, from three
to eight feet deep, the moose have o
small stretch of country packed hard,
so they can get around easily to
browse off the surrounding trees.
From these yards" as they are
called, the moose are at times driven
by wolves or by dogs and men. The
animal founders through the deep
snow till it is exhausted, and then
proves an easy prey to its pursuers,
Though she has no horns, the COW
moose possesses dangerous weapons in
her two forefeet, which can strike for
ward with the skill of a boxer and
deliver most telling blows.

Ell Dorado, Ark, May 1.-Eigh-
teen compilations in the Ell Dorado
field up to Friday night show an
added initial production of 1850
barrels, with a number of tests in
the new fields to the east and south
east, due for a test within the next
two weeks, which are expected to
put the production back to the high
figures of last fall when the daily
production OF the field was around
10000 barrels
Since the discovery of oil in Ell
Dorado on Jan. 10, 1921, up to the
present week, this field has produced
approximately 15,500,000 barrels of
oil, or an average production for
the entire time Of over 32,400 bar
rels per day. In money value at
the present price of oil this average
represents an output of liquid gold
daily valued at $64,S00 and for the
entire period 100000.
Ell Dorado is today on a firm

everything was more or less unset
tied and the city was growing so

Today Ell Dorado has nine refin-

output of around 10000 barrels of
crude oil per day. Three casing

course of construction, which ex-
tract over 10000 gallons of gaso-
line daily from the casing head

it is used for drilling rigs and do

The new churches under con-

Stops Planes Cotton Waste.

Cotton waste, which has long been
used in cleaning all kinds of machin-
cry, has been banned in the workshops
of the Canadian air service. When
airpane engines are overhauled and
waste is used, the engines have often
stopped when they were afterward
placed in service.
"These cases have appeared to be
due not to waste being accidentally
left in the engine parts, but to an ac-
emulation of small pieces of cotton
thread that had been left on engine
parts after cleaning with waste" says
Lieut.. Col. f. w. Stedman, director,
technical section, Air Board. He urges
that commercial companies also pro-
hibit such use of waste.-By Science

HINT TO SUCCESS SEEKERS"
"cuItivate the Thrifty, You May Need
Their Savings" Is Advice Civ
en- by Humorist.

Honesty and industry are requisite
of success in business. The young
man who is determined to become very
wealthy must therefore cultivate per-
sons who are honest and industrious,
writes Don Marquis in the New York
Sun. Honest and industrious persons
are very apt to believe in the integrity
Of others, and this makes it far cas-
Ter for an enterprising young man to
do business with them advantageously
than if they were self-seeking and sus-
picious. Profits are always to be de-
rived from honesty and industry, If
the thing is managed cleverly.
Thrift cannot be too highly COM
mended. Teach all those with whom
you come in contact to be saving. You
never know when you may need their
savings to finance one of your ven
lures. Analyze any great fortune and
you will find that 1t is built Of small
savings.
Sobriety cannot be too highly
praised. The staid and sober person
is dependable. You can count on him
receiving a certain calculable income
year in and year out; and if you have
enough persons of this sort on your
list you are building on a solid foun-
dation; there need be nothing hap
hazard about your methods.
Steadily, so many hours a day, a
reliable specified number Of sober me-
thodical persons are piling up for you
each his modest proportion of incre-
ment, and at stated seasons it be-
comes yours, just as the apiary gar
ners a proportion of the honey from
the hives. The wastrel may have mon
ey at times, and it is usually easy to
get it away from him when he has 1t !;
but he is not dependable; there will
always be occasions when others Will
get to him first.
Build your own list, and make your
relations with the persons on it perma-
nent 1t is better in any event never
to associate with wastrels. They are
not moral persons, and you must be-
come known as man with moral as
sociations. This is great help In
business.
