NEW YORK, Dec. 22.-Sclentlsts and financiers who are Investigating the claims of Professor Meithe, a sci enlist Of international reputation that he accidentally brought about the transmutation of gold from quicksil-- yer, admitted his cliams when they succeeded in duplicating the experi-- ments and themselves manufactur-- ing a small quantity of the metal. The theory that financial chaos might result from the discovery was ex- ploded when the cost of producing one ounce of gold by this method was estimated at $14O,000, while the pres ent value of gold is only twenty dol lars. At the same time it was indi- cated that the supply of quicksilver available would not be sufficient to affect the markets to any appreciable extent.

NEW FRENCH MOTOR FUEL
 HAS HARDER KICK THAN GAS

PARIS, Dec. 22-Tests by the ar tillery laboratories at Vincennes are said to have justified claims made for a new motor fuel extracted from debenzolized coal tar by a process invented by M. Makhonine, a Russian engineer. When used in heavy trucks and tractors, according to Le Matin, it developed much greater power than gasoline and gave slightly higher mile age to the gallon. It's cost is said to be one-tenth that of gasoline. Its pro. moters claim that the fuel which is non-inflammable will make the French army independent of imported gaso- line.

LAST APPEAL MADE q
FOR SCHOOL LIBRARY
Americas Residents Have Do
mated Only Five Volumes to
Date in Book Drive

A last appeal for books for
thompson School Memorial Library
S being made today by Rev. Chas.
A. Phillips and others interested in
the establishment Of the Library at
this school.
Discussing the success of the
drive thus far, Rev. Phillips said to-
day that while many valuable books
have been received and these are
fine additions to the school library,
the appeal has received hearty re-
Spouse only within the bounds of
Thompson or Lysian school district.
Only five volumes have been con-
tributed as yet by Americas resi-
dents, whereas members of the fac
ulty are of the opinion that many
needed books now repose in neg
lected places in Americas homes,
that could easily be donated.
Americas residents, therefore, are
asked to ransack their closets and
shelves, examining the books hidden
away there, that such volumes as
may be no longer priced as parts of
home Libraries may be contributed
the Thompson school collection.
