PRIEST O-LITE GETS 81, $50, 900
ORDER.
viii Supply Hudson Company With
Storage Batteries.

An order for ST. 250. 600 of storage bat
tpries has been placed with the Prest O.
Lite Company, of Indianapolis, by the
Hudson Motor Car Company of Detroit,
representing one of the largest single
orders for batteries ever placed by an
automobile manufacturer, and being the
largest order ever received by Prest O.
Lite.
Although Prest, O. Lite has been sup
plying Hudson with batteries several
years. the large order which ]. H.
McDuffee, general sales manager, has
just obtained parallels this motor car
company's production for the period OF
the order. 1t is one Of the largest sin.
gle order ever placed for a given pro.
duction period by any company, MIR.
McDuffee said.
Because Of this and other orders b.
ing placed by our customers, sid Mr..
McDuffee, I'VE will be running cur
plant overtime and employing more men
within the next thirty or sixty days than
ever before in our history. This nil
lion-dollar order is only che indication o.
the increase in Prest-O-Lite business we
are experiencing at the Speedway pant
this year. A large number Of other
well known automobile manufacturers
are now using Prest-O-Lite batteries,
including Marmon, Stutz, the new Pom
tiac, the new Chrysler, imperial, Pack

DOMINION WHEAT crop.

WINNIPEG, M-The total wheat
production for the three prairie
provinces for 1926 is estimated at
377,472,OOO bushels by the Northwest
Grain Dealers association. This es-
innate is based on the acreage fig
ures issued by the association on June
IL last and compiled from returns re-
ceived from 80 per cent of the cOun-
try points in the three provinces Of
Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta.
The yield is based on actual thresh-
ing completed and the final figures
may be subject to a slight reduction.
BY provinces the wheat yield is as
follows: Manitoba, 44,215,OOO bushels;
Saskatchewan, 2O4,399 900 bushels,
and Alberta, 128, 1853, 900 bushels. Ev-
cry advantage of the good weather is
being taken by the farmers in getting
their grain to market.

ment in livestock in all time.
Changes of administration have
not affected the program of the bu-
reau, tending towards the greatest
possible efficiency. Frankly, one of
the great difficulties with many of
the state departments of agriculture
has been the changes in personnel
because of changes in administra-
ton.
Manifestly there are administrative
positions in our national, state and
civic affairs which in order to Gre
ate and allow sufficient time to- carry
out constructive programs may not
for the public good come within the
class of positions that can be safely
used for the so-called payment of
political debts. The element of hu-
man interest, so necessary to the
finishing of big jobs applies in this
case with the same force and effect
as in any other constructive work.

AMERICANS HEROIC
IN ARMENIA QUAKE
Doctors and Nurses Aid Vic
Tins of Disaster.

MOscOw.-A stirring story Of Amer
lean herOism in the face of a disaster
has reached here in a telegram from
the American Near East relief COM
mittee in Leninkan in the heart of
the Armenian earthquake district
where 400 were killed and thousands
injured.
While the earth rocked beneath
them and the panic-stricken popula-
ton fed madly through the streets,
the American doctors and nurses Op-
Grated all night long on the earth
quake victims in the open air. The
committee ~telegraphed:
'"The earthquake centralized In the
Kars-Leninkan district. Erivan was
not touched. Twelve towns were
totally destroyed and thirteen others
practically wiped Out. Hundreds were
killed and thousands injured. Over
600 houses were destroyed in Lenin-
kan. The damage to the Near East
Relief buildings was considerable.
Heroic work "a done by the Ameri-
can and native personnel. Our doc
tors and nurses operated on victims
all night during the continued shocks.
"The government transferred cases
to our houses on account Of their
buildings being shattered. Our hos
pital was evacuated and we worked
under tents. The orphans and the
American personnel miraculously es-
capped injuries. The governments
martial law is efficiently controlling
the situation. The entire population
is sleeping in parks and fields In the
crudest shelters"

Thanksgiving will come, except
through the kindness Of the charitable
children Of the alleys, gaunt-eyed
and already hopeless in their poverty,
asking with mute anguish to be fed,
and devOuring greedily with their eyes
the good things before the doors Of
the grOcers and butchers; whole fami-
lies %shivering in the desOlation Of
ireless homes. All these plead for
the hand of help, and while the chart
table societies will do much, each In
dividual by themselves could do more.
So let us, who have reason to be
thankful, seize the opportunity to
show t~hankfulness by helping those
who know not what 1t is to be crate
full, having nothing to be grateful for.
Let rs not selfshly thank God for His
mercies to us and remain ourselves
"unmerciful.

CHROMIUM VITAL
TO AUTO INDUSTRY

One element that is more impor-
tant than any other in the whole
structure of the automobile is chrom-
ium, and if it were not for chrome
steel we should not be able to build
u cars today, DR.. Colin G. Fink, of
Columbia university, told members of
the Detroit section of the Society
Of Automotive Engineers at a recent
meeting.
Chromium belongs to a group in the
periodic table of elements that in
cludes first chromium, which has
an atomic weight of 81, thea molyb-
denum, tungsten and uranium. 1t re-
sembles these other elements in that
it is hard, but differs in other re-
spects. Its special properties are
that it imparts hardness and tough
ness to steel, is highly resistant to
corrosion and has greater resistance
to high temperatures than any other
element. A wide variety of alloys
are made with chromium, about As
per cent of the total production of
this metal going into alloys with iron.
carbon, tungsten, cobalt, nickel and
manganese.
1t is not a rare metal. The pro-
duction last year amounted to $4,000
tons, most of which came from Rho.
desia in Africa because of the cheap.
ness of labor there, but rich deposit:
of the ore exist all over the world
By comparison, the production Of
nickel in 1925 was only 10000 ton:
and of tungsten only 5000.
Chromium ore is used as a refrac
tory in chrome brick, which are useC
for lining open hearth and blast fur
naces, because they have a melting
point of nearly 1000 degrees Fahren
heit whereas the highest temperature
in blast furnaces is about 3450 de
grees.
Chromium can be plated on a!
metals and does not corrode or tar
nish. Because Of it's hardness it il
easier to do all the polishing on tn
under metal before plating.
Rustless or stainless steel is on
of the chromium alloys and is coming
into extensive use in cutlery am
tableware.
Another valuable property o.
chromium is its high power to reflec
light. It has 80 per cent of the re
flectivity Of polished silver, and be
cause it does not corrode it is use,
for mirrors in the Geographic trans
mission of pictures across the ocear

Billion ear Old Fossils
Discovered by Scientists

WashingtOn.-FOssil deposits of the
earliest known animal life on earth,
dating back between one and two bill
lions Of years, furnished the material
for field work in Utah and Montana,
from which DR.. Charles E. Resser and
Erwin r. POhn, Smithsonian paleOn-
biologists, have just returned.
These fossils are found in the Cam
brian rocks. They consist mainly Of
trilobiteS-a c~rustacean life which, be-
came extinct about the time the coal
measures were deposited. Their clos
est modern relative is the brine
shrimps, curious creatures abundant
in the Great Salt lake and in the
Dead sea. A billion and a half years
ago these trilobites were the dominant
life in the sea. there being, so far as
is known, no land animals. Up to the
present time about 1000 different
kinds Of them are known from the
CambrIan alone. Ultimately this mum.
Der may reach 5000.
A few fossils have been found in
rocks older than the Cambrian, but
In the Cambrian life lowered sudden.
ly into startling abundance. It Il
only in comparatively recent years
that life has been known in the Cam
brian. Fifty years ago biologists be
iieved the O%rdivician. two period:
later than the Cambrian, contained
the oldest life. But the lifelong wOrh
of Dr. Charles D. UWalcOtt, secretary
of the Smithsonian institution, proved
the older view to be incorrect.

Imported Birds May
Replace the Turkey


An experimental turkey farm has
been established at Glendale, in the
dry region of Arizona, by the United
States Department Of Agriculture to
stimulate interest in turkey raising.
The industry has declined greatly In
the last % years. Scientific prOduc-
ton methods are to be developed on
this farm, and studies made Of the
turkey disease known as "blackhead,"
a mysterious malady which wipes out
entire 'hOcks.
In the event Of failure Of these ex-
periments. other birds, which have
been introduced from South America
and Mexico. may ultimately replace
the domestic turkey made famous as
An Offering Of Thanksgiving by the
early Pilgrims. One Of these IS the
South American Ocellated turkey,
which has plumage Slike a peacock.
Another Is the chacalaca turkey from
Mexico and Honduras.
The dOmesticated turkey Is now
heading toward extinction. Breeding
stocks have decreased from 6.6OO,OOO
birds in 1900 to around 100000. New
England raises scarcely enough to
meet local demands.
Farms In the East have grown them
usually as sidelines, individual hocks
rarely exceeding 100 turkeys. In parts
Of southern California turkeys are
berded Ike sheep on the open sange
in ffOcks Of 1000 or more. tended by
men on horseback.

Day Is Treasured
Heirloom for All
True Americans
P~roclamaSiOns Not Needed
to Turn Hearts to Civ
ing Thanks for
Mercies.

Thanksgiving day is at hand. The
on the earth has issued his prOclama-
ton. and the governors of the various
states, following his example, have
told Of the bOuntiful h~arveSts and
heavens high favor. From our mag
istrates as well as from our hearts
comes the command to be thankful
for our great blessings.
But the hundred and odd millions Of
people in the United States do not
need a reminder of the day or n
official command to celebrate It. The
spirit Of the Pilgrim Fathers on the
desOlate coast Of Cape Cod exists as
an heirloom in the hearts of the Amer
ican people. It is n of the first things
that lay hold upon and graft them
selves upon the character Of the races
that come from abroad 20 make the
new world their home.
They may have little to be thankful
for, yet the day becomes a festival,
ever II the purse be scanty and the
larder be light. Three centuries have
passed since the first Thanksgiving
day was celebrated In America, and
ever since it has been a day nf bless
Ing for rich and poor alike. It has
been a day when those to whom the
blessings Of plenty have come have
given thanks for their own pIenteOus
store, while the unfortunate among
Gods people have rendered fearful
thanks for the charity that remembers
the poor.
Day Of Rejoicing.
On Thanksgiving day the homes Of
those with fortune blessed in this
great nation ring with the merry shout
Of children and the graver gayety of
the old folks, while tables grooming
under mammoth turkeys, set In eel
cry and cranberry sauce, and glisten-
ing gravy, and spiced pickles and plum
pudding, will subdue the appetites of
the very hungriest.
In other homes not so elegant, but
with cOntentment blessed. there will
be turkey, alsO-with not so many
"hxings.' to be sure, but turkey, for
all that, with white meat for happy
mother and a wing for father. and the

We owe our giving here below.
