NEW IDEA IN WATCH MAKING
Discovery, II Is Announced, Is Capable
of RevoIutionixlng the Pres
ent Industry.

Not long ago there was announced
a discovery described by the director
Of the international bureau Of weights
and measures as being capable Of revo-
lutionizing the matchmaking industry.
A successful method Of regulation,
remedying the variations In time Of a
watch due to the expansion and con-
traction Of its parts caused by varia-
tions Of temperature, Is the result OF
the invention Of c. E. Guillaume.
This so-called secondary error al
ways has been one of the great OBJ
stacles in the attainment Of perfection
and precision In the matchmaking in
dustry.
The chief feature of the Guillaume
process is a change in the alloy used
in the compensating parts. Then mini
mum expansion of nickeled steel was
found to be increased by the addition
of II per cent Of chrome as well as a
small quantity Of tungsten, man.
ganese or carbon. BY mounting a
spiral of this steel-nickel-chrome al
10y in the watch, according to Ve
French announcement, the problem OF
compensation has been solved and the
secondary error" removed.-Washing-

This broader. deeper stream. the Sne.

great hills which threaten to stop Its

For centuries this nature-made spec

was constructed few hundred feet

this great cataract is made to turn the
machinery that develops hundreds Of
thousands of horse rower of electrical

mitted long distances through the me
dium Of heavily insulated high-tension
cables and lights and otherwise serves

Sound region. Thus, without mnrring

methods that have resulted in its
growth" he added

downtown streets Of Detroit will be
profusely decorated with banners to
give the whole city gala appearance.

$200. 900 pavilion for the exhibition Of

benefit OF all other farmers who find
valuable lessons IN the observance

That is the slogan of the 1923 Mich
igan State Fair which will be held in
Detroit August 81 to September. 9.
"Our annual attendance has just
about reached the 100000 figure al

additional $1,000,000 being spent this
year for extensive Improvements we
expect fully half million persons to
visit the fair during the ten days.
This is the nations greatest expo

by the state of Michigan for the edu-
cation and entertainment of the peo-
pie. 1t Is the states great playground
as well as an agricultural school so
there is every reason to believe that
the hosts that come from near and
far each year will become an army Of
half million this fall.
Already we have arranged for stu
pendous attractions and many more
are being planned that will be most
pleasant surprise to the people OF
cities and farms.
"Our agricultural and live stock
exhibits this year will surpass by far
anything of the kind ever seen, every
thing seems to indicate. And our
races and other sports, our great
spectacular stunts and our lively mid
way where the carnival spirit reigns
will be without parallel.

Joy an educational vacation In the
