worthy. NJ. P..-meaning would the
government call for a new elec-
tion-"in the event the appropria-
tion is defeated?"
Yes. II that is necessary" Cham
berlain replied emphatically.
In its decision not to resign i'm
mediately, therefore. the govern
ment has survived more than one
crisis. But the survival may be only
temporary. Political observers real
ize that the coalition Is nearing a
supreme test. The government GER
tainly cannot pass through another
situation such as this even though
the issue in the present case is far
less serious than many other ques.
tions which will sooner or later
be brought to the front by the pre-
mier's opponents.

will hurry back from Genoa ftC
make another OF his characteristic
personal appeals. staving of a new
election until the day arrives wher
he can go to the country with com.
piete confidence of success.
1t is generally conceded that the
defeat Of yesterday was due to rath.
or tactless handling of an angry
house by Chamberlain.
The house now has quieted some.
what mollifled by other government
leaders. And no doubt the house is
now ready to give a vote OF conf
dence IL Lloyd George demands

PLATING ON ALUMINIUM

Some time ago there were report ed the details of method invented for plating on aluminium, an achieve ment that had long been striven fo1 with little success. The chief diff culty appears to arise from an in. visible film, which forms on alu. minum when exposed to the air.
 By the method mentioned this film is dissolved off in bath con- taining soluble fuorides. A little free hHdrohuoric acid appears tc act best. Then a coating of zinc is formed on the aluminium in a plat. ing bath, and upon this coating cop per, silver and other metals may be deposited.
 In order to form a gold plating the zinc covering the aluminum must first be coated thinly with cop, per, as otherwise the gold sinks into the zinc, and in a few weeks almost disappears.

NEW USE FOR ALUMINUM

Owing to the property which alu. minum possesses of producing g very high temperature when burned with substances that give off oxy- gen, it has been employed for mak. ing detonator for firing explosives which do not readily respond to the action of the detonating compost tions generally used.
 The aluminium is used in the form of a powder mixed with the other substances filling the porous sion caps or detonators. The sud- den high temperature induced by the pulverized aluminium results in a greater mechanical energy than can be produced with compositions not containing aluminium. - New York Herald.

SWEDEN PROUD OF WRITER
Famous Academy Makes Somewhat New Departure, However, in Addi-
 tion to It's Membership.

For the first time in history the Swedish academy, founded by King Gustavus III in 1786, a humorist and comic artist has been elected to that exclusive body. This honor has been bestowed on Albert Eng strom, one of the most popular fig ures in Sweden, editor of Strix, Swedish humorist weekly, writer of distinction and the creator of some of the funniest cartoons and char acter sketches that ever came out of Scandinavia.
 The Swedish academy, popularly known as '"The' Eighteen" for it's membership is limited to that num- Der, was molded by it's royal found- CT on the pattern of the French academy, for the special object of preserving, purifying and elevating the Swedish language. Its motto is "Genius and Good Taste"
 Engstrom's popularity is based on his brilliant essays, principally on marine subjects, as well as on his sympathetic sketches of the common people, sailors, fishermen, longshoremen and country types.

VAIN TO SEEK HAPPINESS" Only to Be Found by Those Who Have Proved Themselves Capable
 of Approaching Her.

'In America we are all in the hunt-men and women. Our ever lasting quest of excitement is wear ing us out" says Irving Bacheller, the well-known writer. "We may find knowledge and excitement and even pleasure abroad, but not that abiding presence we call Happiness which, unless she be dead, is always calling US back home. Everyone who goes about looking for Happi- ness will look in vain. If he is ca pablo of seeing her, he will find her waiting on his doorstep when he gets home.
 "What is happiness? Is it not in love of ones task and of his asso- citations? am convinced that it is born of those two loves, or not at all.
 'The greatest happiness lies in having found one's work and in be- ing strong to do it. Good health is, therefore, a part of the thing we call happiness. The friends who respect and understand Us and a loved task and a comfortable home fill the cup."- the Delineator.

IS THE AMERICAN
CONTINENT DRIFTING
To The WESTWARD?

London, Sept. 12-(By the A. P.)
Is the American continent drifting
westward and slowly leaving Europe
behind? it Is, If the theory propound-
ed to the Savants of the British Asso-
citation at Hull yesterday by the Ger
man geologist DR.. Wegener is corr
rect.
DIR. Wegener declared that the var
ious continents originally were join
ed at the poles but that now they
are slowly drifting away from the
poles and from east to west. America
is moving westward faster than
Europe he said and Greenland still
faster than America. He added that
this movement had been proven by
experiments at observatories in
Europe and at Washington.
In the discuss Hon which followed
Professor Turner, Of Oxford. said
there was no astronomical observa-
ton worthy of serious consideration
in support of Wegener's theory.
Greenland, he admitted, had an ap-
parent drift. showing a change OF
three quarters of a mile in position
between 1923 and 1907. All other
evidence however was against the ex-
istence of changes in latitude and
longitude.
