MODERN MACHINERY

The Pathfinder Creamery is now
firmly established in its new quar-
ters in the public market building,
and to facilitate the production Of
an absolutely pure grade OF milk.
has installed a complete set OF mod
ern machines. Perhaps the most
interesting OF these is a 2o0.lb.
cream line ~pasteurizer which was
purchased several weeks ago from
the Fort Wayne Dairy Equipment
company. of Fort Wayne. Ind. The
performance OF this machine is little
less than wonderful. and must be
seen to be fully appreciated.
A thoroughly modern bottle wash
ing and sterilizing machine is on
the way from a factory in the
east, and should be here within the
week according to tho management.
In approximately two weeks the
Pathfinder Creamery will hold open
house for the ladies' OF Casper. 1t
Is the wish of the management that
Casper housewives will show enough
interest in tho processes used in a
modern dairy to devote an hour or
two to the inspection Of the ma
chimes and other modern creamery
equipment.
The Pathfinder Creamery In open
day and night and is prepared to
give speedy service at any hour. So
great has tho volume of business
become, that two new delivery
trucks have been added to the
transportation department. The
company operates its own refrigera-
ton plant, and has installed new

He liked Sung Lees round-faced

stumped him was the chopsticks. Try
as he would, he wasn't able to man
age them right, and though the family
smiled good-naturedly at his troubles
they couldn't help him. He didn't get
nearly as much to eat as he wanted.

Examples of Pressure.

\ n interesting experiment in pres
"A sure may be tried. Bricks or
other weights are fastened on either
end of a wire which is suspended
across a block of ice, The ice should
be elevated by placing It on the end
OF jar or box. SO that the weights
are free to drop to the ground. The
pressure of the wire on the ice causes
melting, and the wire gradually works
its way down into the center OF the
Ice. But as it decends the groove
above the wire is observed TO begin to
freeze over. This is possible because
as the wire sinks through the layer
Of water thus formed the pressure, on

TT isn't always true that when a

though in most cases the best way of
breaking up a pass. Of course, is to
get out under the ball and attempt to
catch 1t as a punt is caught.

when It should be batted down. When

Tricks With a Coin.

The trick OF making a coin stick on
a surface will greatly puzzle your
friends whenry you perform the SEEM
ing magic for them.
Take a. coin. and, placing it fiat
against a door or some other smooth
surface, rub IT back and forth vigor-
ously dozen times or more. Take
away your hand after repeating a
mystic chant, and the coin will stay
there. After few moments it will
drop. The explanations is that the
rubbing OF the coin on the smooth
surface heats and drives the air out
from under the coin. thus leaving
the atmospheric pressure on the ex-
posed face to hold 1t in place. After
the coin has had time to cool, the
rair gets under it and it drops off. Be
sure the coin you use has good rim
on It and the surface on which you
put it is very smooth.
Another trick is performed with
a bottle, q match. and the coin
Break the match stick so that the
two parts hang together by only a
few fibers Of wood. Place it in a "
shape on the neck of the uncorked
bottle, and then on the match lay the
coin. Now ask your friends If they
can make the coin fall into the bottle
without touching the match. the.coin
or the bottle. Various solutions will
be tried, but the winning one is this:
!. Dip your finger. in q glass of water,
and placing 1t above the angle
formed by the match. allow few
drops to fan in tho broken place. The
fihers of.,the wood, swollen by tho
moisture, will try to straighten them
selves. and you will see the angle Of
the match Increase little by little
until 1t gradually works out from
under the coin and the money drops
into the bottle.

A Lesson in
Breaking Up Passes

on downs where the ball was put
into play. There Is an exception where
the pass is well out to the side, and
the defensive player who has an op-
portunity to intercept 1t Is pretty
sure he can get away for a long run.
A defensive player should not try to
catch a forward pass when an often
sive player has an equal, or nearly
equal, chance to catch 1t, because 1t
is much easier and safer to bat the
ball out of reach of the opponent than
1t Is to chance catching 1t. He must
be careful, however. to bat 1t SO that
no offensive player has a chance to
catch it before 1t hits the ground.
