Sea Water Affects GlasE

Glass Is considerably affected BY.
exposure to seq water. The lenses or
signal lights on ships become covered
by thin layer of sea salt which even
tually etches into the glass. The Unit
ed States bureau of standards in an
investigation of this subject has found
that lead glass was quite susceptible to
this corrosive action, while ordinary
soda-lime glass and horo-sLlicate glass
are little affected.

GlLnnlen Lose Their BADGES

THEY'VE got an attorney general in
i West Virginia now who apparently
does not believe that deputy sheriffs
should be hired and paid for by private
employers. This marks an advance in
West Virginia.
State Attorney General England has
gone into court and obtained an injunction
against Sheriff Don Chafin (now under
penitentiary sentence for bootlegging),
the county judge of Logan county, the
prosecuting attorney, the county commits
sioners, about $50 deputy sheriffs and 80
coal companies. The petition for injunc-
tion charged that Sheriff Chafin appointed
these deputies so that they might act as
mine guards and that the coal companies
paid their salaries, in addition to paying
. Chafin for making the appointments.
The court issued an order restraining
county officials from appointing these pri-
vate gunner as deputies and restraining
the coal companies from paying salaries
of county employees.
West Virginia is beginning to catch up
with the Union.

One Real Shock!

COMETHING shocking has happened in
~ Washington. There is a tense situa-
ton there now. Officials Of high degree
are speechleSs, nonplussed. Officials Of
less degree go duly, dazedly about, con-
versing, if at all, in awed whispers. Per
sons on the streets to whom the news has
filtered merely nod to each other rs they
meet and go obviously, listlessly about
their affairs. The men of real authority
in the matter are completely at sea as to
what course TO pursue, since there are no
precedents TO which appeal may be made.
The wheels of government, mighty as they
are and potent, seem hopelessly gummed
and helplessly inadequate. The heavens
seem to have fallen with a bang. What
might, what can, what will be done? Who
is there to suggest or plan? And the
cause of it all-the crushing, heart-still-
ing meaning of it all-you want to know?
Well, brace yourself and set your jaw for
the jolt.

Not Very Necessary

INTRODUCING DR.. James Moffatt.
L eminent theologian of Glasgow, who
issues a translation Of the Bible into what
he calls modern English. DR.. Moffatt be-
lieyes that the Bible cannot be properly
understood by the present generation I'M
less il appears 10 them in the language of
their everyday life.
1t must be admitted that there have
been failures Of many attempts to make
folks fully understand the language Of the
Bible. The differences in the understand
ings have even given rise TO numerous
denominations. But it is not necessary 20
understand all Of the Bible. Those who
cannot understand the Ten Command
ments and the Sermon on the Mount are
too dense TO be affected by the book, no
