Judge M. w. Conkling gave an in
tcresting talk on criminology at the
kiwanis luncheon yesterday, giving
his ideas on treatment of criminals
and need Of reform. The judge de-

Tenders and habitual criminals.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, May 10
Juvenile delinquency is not increas-

side about the follies Of the present
"jazz age, Will G. Wood, state
superintendent Of public instruction,
said today.
Statistics of the federal children 3
bureau shows there has been no
marked decrease in recent years in
the ages of persons received at pris-
ons and reformatories. Wood pointed
out.
Between So and Al years is the
"danger age,' Wood said, more
persons being committed to penal in.
stitutions during these years than
during anv other period of life.
Some of the strongest defenders

The straight line distance from
Spitzbergen to Nome via the north
pole is approximately 2000 miles.
The Norge carried fuel for approxi-
mately 5000 miles of travel. That
supply may have been conserved
to point permitting additional
mileage without exhaustion, because
reports indicated less than the usual
amount of unfavorablc winds were
encountered
Pole Was Foggy
The reports sent back indicated
perfect weather most of the trip.
There was Il fog at the pole itself
but much flying was done under
clear skies and practically the en-

nights. The Norge carried : men.

Others in the party were citizens

Aside from the romance of the eX-

1t was believed Amundscn would
claim any land he saw in the name

The flight also marked the first

airplane and the progress of knowl-

ships which will fly over the pole
from London to Toxic in a week or
less may prove practical for the fu

message from Lincoln Ellsworth,
American member of the expedition
to President Coolidge today.
The Ellsworth message was sent
to Washington by naval radio and
relayed by telegraph to Williams
burg, Va, where the President
spoke today. Its contents were not
made public here.
Arrival of the Norge ends the
third trip to the north pole in his
tory-the first trip in lighter than
air craft; the first journey ever
made directly cover the top Of the
world" and one of the most roman
tic explorations in history.
Tuesday morning at 10 O'Clock,
Norwegian time, the Norge roared
out Of Kings Bay, Spitzbergen, ear
rying II men into The unknown reg
ion.
At ! a. m. Wednesday they cross
ed the north pole, according to
radiograms, and dropped American,
Norwegian and italian flags to mark
the three countries, respectively of
Lincoln Ellsworth, Captain Roald
Amundsen and Umberto Mobile,
leaders of the expedition.
Then they started on the "down
hill' phase of the trip; the descent
from the pole to Alaska. 1t was
through that region that they look
ed for land. The expanse between
Alaska and the pole has never be-
fore been invaded by civilized man.
........ Over Dead Spot
For hours after passing the pole,
the Norge was out of touch with its
base at Spitzbergen,> due to the
"dead spot for radio communica-
tion which seems to exist around the
pole. 1t was not until near mid
night, Alaskan time, Wednesday,
that the navy's radio station at ST.
Paul, Alaska, picked up the signals
of the dirigible and any fears that
difficulties had overtaken the ex.
pcdition were dispelled.
just what area the expedition
covered will not be known until
formal reports are made, but it is be

from the receipt of such written
statement should 1t be made to ap-

BELFAST
Funeral Services for Mrs. Wilson

Funeral Services for Mrs. Wilson
Funeral services were held in the
Baptist church this afternoon for
Mrs. Fustina G.. Wilson, widow of
Joseph d. Wilson of Belfast, aged
81, who was a victim of escaping
gas while passing the winter in
West Lynn, Mass, the guest of her
son, Byron NJ. Wilson. Mrs. Wilson
was left alone in the house and
when her son returned at noon he
found the door locked and it was
necessary to enter the window. He
found the house filled with gas and
his mother unconscious. A physician
said that she had been dead for
about an hour. 1t is believed that
Mrs. Wilson had fainting spell. for
she had taken a bottle of aromatic
spirits of ammonia from closet,
and that in some way she had stag
gered against the gas stove and turn
ed one of the knobs. 1t was I'M
doubtedly an accident and had Mr..
Wilson arrived an hour earlier he
might have saved her. The family
cat was lying in a chair unconscious
but revived. when taken into the air.
Mrs. Wilson had great many
friends in Belfast, where for many
years she lived in a little cottage on
ticipated a pleasant winter with her
son. At the service Rev. Hosea
Rhoades ofiiciated. Besides her son
with whom she lived, another son,
Joseph, lives in Lakeport, Calf.

Trip of Match Long
From Forest to Pocket

Wadsworth. O., Nov. 25.-(P)-
Got a match?" A simple request
easily complied with, but not so pro-
sale is the story of the making Of
the wood silver with It's inflammable
tip.
The match starts it's Journey to
somebody's vest pocket in a a tower
ing pine forest, hundreds of miles
away from the final center of manu-
facture. Forests, railroads and saw
mills are owned by the match COM
panies, which have great factories
here.
Timber Cut Pinch Planks
One company owns a great tract Of
timber in the Occur d Alene noun
tains of Idaho. A company railroad,
"a miles long, takes the logs to the
main line of the Spokane Interna-
tional Railroad, which hauls them to
Occur d'Alene Lake, where they are
put into booms and towed to the
company's sawmill on the Spokane
River.
The logs are sawed into two-inch
planks and. seasoned for year or
eighteen months. When ready for
use, they are sent to the company's
block plant at Spokane. Selected
lumber there is cut into blocks ? 3-S
INCHES lOIS, W lllttl 10 liit SAelNt i1hs,t III
of a match The blocks are sent to
the factory here, a 2000-mile journey.
How Matches Shaped
The first manufacturing STEP is to
feed the blocks into a match mGchine,
which cuts them up and forces the
sticks into holes in an iron plate,
holding 500 sticks. 1t takes en- hour
from then until the match comes
out a finished product
over sprigs and brushes. the plates
are carried and all the weak and i'm
perfect ones are automatically culled.
Next comes treatmt MT by paraffin
and chemicals. Then the first COM
position is put on the head. The
sticks pass over roller which turns
in a box containing tie composition.
The ignition tip is applied the same
way.
The use of phosphorus as an ac-
tive ingredient in match making was
barred by congressional act in 1913.
The poisonous phosphorus used to
affect the bones of the jaw of work
ers. Sesqui sulphide of phosphorus
now is used. which is non poisonous.
