Chemical Circles Stirred.

The experiments in motor fuel in

engines have already thrown parts of
the chemical industry into confusion.
and have Snatched control of an i'm
portant chemical element from foreign
hands. The stea mship Ethyl has lust
returned To Wilmington from deep
water cruise after proving the prac.
ticability of commercial production of
bromine from sea water. The shin
was fitted out a floating Ia aboratory
and factory by the T.. |. du Pont dc
\emours CO.
Bromine. which is the only LIQUID
non-metallic element known 10 chem
istry. is used in the manufacture of
tetraethyl lead. devised for mixing
cheney in motor fuel. The vessel has
been put out of commission because
the ethyl gasoline corporation has de-
termined TO offer none of the products
for sale pending a report As to whether
its use was dangerous. The question
will be taken up May 20 by Surg. Gen.
Cumming in Washington.
Nevertheless. the operation Of the
floating factory proved the manufac-
ture of bromine from sea water en-
tirely practical and satisfactory. Here
tofore production of bromine was in
the hands of Germa ms. The element is
widely used in medicine and photogra-
ply. and its successful commercial
production from sea water ends the

HEIR promise drew them to
each other In a poignant, al
most terrifying sense Of
nearness.
It filled Chickie with awe;
mantled her with a shy, uncertain
wondernent. She sometimes stopped
abruptly in her work, saying with
startled, hammer1ng pulse: Mar.
riedI Well soon be married." Her
thoughts drifted TREMENDOUSLY in a
warm, vague excitement. They
brought Barry to her as he touched
her hair, raised her face in his
hands. He had now become god
like--in his eyes, flame; in his voice,
nnusic-so ne swept her.
She emerged from these dreams,
flushed and confused, fearful lest
Janina might have perceived and
would begin to mock her. But in
a little while the dreams returned
like white birds communing in song
about her ears--the more piercing
be .ause she hstended alone.
Coming home with a new pur-
chase. she had often e. wish to drop
in on Mary; to say merrilyi "See
what bought today! And. oh-all

my bureau! Even Jennie doesn't

One Saturday afternoon when she
and Mary were taking a walk
like old times-trundling the 60
cart, they passed q bungalow, near
ly completed. Chiclsie had almost
said: MARY, old dear, like me for
a neighbor? I'm thinking this very
minute of moving into that darling
little hole-me and my own"
The two girls stood gazing at the
little cottage. so fresh, so tempting.
Chickie was smiling and Mary
smiled too.
But moths holy thing-this love
keep It to yourself. Wait till 1t
was very certain.
But Chickie visited the bungalow
herself. Smiling in tinidity and
eagerness, she passed the carpen'
ters, studied each of the four bright,
eun-filled rooms, The kitchen, with
its white breakfast nook, its new,
glistening cabinets held her in a
charm. Just fancy little dotted
Swiss curtains on tho windows and
a few golden peoples in yellow jar
on that cunning little table!
A. young workman in white plas-
trer's overalls came in from the
porch, regarded her sheepishly;
"Idke It, Miss? Guess you're a
bride?"
"Oh, no! I'm just looking for a
friend of mine!" She hurried into
the living room.
Here her imagination revealed. II
tossed a gorgeous blue rug on the
Hoor-a heavy Chinese thing like
that she had seen at Jakes. 1t put
an odd rosewood desk in the corner
bookcases against the walls; bright
~ living Goals in the open CRATE. They
would sit here in the evenings, liv

FIRST GRADERS
UNDER STRAIN
AT SCHOOL
New World To Six Year Olds Is
Full OF Strange Adjustments,
Physicians Warn.
CHILD NEEDS CARE AND
REGULAR HOURS THEN

Do you remember how you felt
when you began "going to SCHOOL,
How strange everything was? What
O new world you entered? Child
health specialists all agree that much
of the mental Notwithstanding
nervousness that often crops up dur
ing the later years of child's school
life could be avoided if little special
care were exercised during these ear
ly years.
Speaking of the care needed by the
little frst-graders during the tran
sition days from babyhood to child
hood, DR.. Knox, Jr., Chief of the Blu
reau of Child Hygiene Of the State
Department of Health said. "Very
few grown-ups realize the mental and
physical strain the six-year-olds are
under when they first start in on the
great adventure of going to school.
The child has some pretty hard prob
lens to tackle, and needs all the re-
serve force that can be mustered for
him.
"a little special care at this time,
particularly with reference to regular
hours of rest and sleep and avoidance
Of unnecessary excitement, will do
much to give these beginners at school
the mental poise that is so much
needed. 1t is equally important that
care be taken of their diet; that they
be given simple nourishing food, at
times and in the quantities when it
can be most easily digested.
"For Nuisance, because of their anx
iety to get off in time, little children
often neglect their breakfast, or COB
be it down in a hurry. To offset this,
the child should take a simple lunch
t. school, sandwich made Of thin
slices of bread and butter, or bread
and jam, to be eaten at the mid-morn-
ing recess. If milk is served at the
school, a glass of milk can be taken
at the same time. When the child
comes home at noon, the principal
meal of the day should be eaten.
"But just as important is the after
noon rest. 1t is not necessary that
the child actually sleep, but it should
be encouraged to lie down in a quiet
room, for from half an hour to an
hour. A child of six needs twelve
hours sleep at night. After the be-
ginning of the school year, 7.30 should
be the regular bed time. And this rule
should not be broken. Little children
should never be taken out TO evening
entertainments and other ex'
citing diversions. There will be plen-
ty of time for them later on.
