Carroll Hagestad of Saco,

vived by his wife and several

Answers To Last Weeks
Questions
8. What is a Vacuum?

Any air-tight container, OF
space, as the interior of a closed
vessel, from which air is exhausted
to a high degree by an air pump
or other artificial means. The
most nearly complete vacuum is
found in the electric bulb and the
radio vacuum tube.
g. How to Boil Water Without
Heating 1t?
The boiling point of water varies
with the air pressure. At lei level
where the pressure is about 10
pounds a square inch, water boils
at PIP degrees; on a high noun
tain at $50 degrees. With each
$40 feet increase in elevation, it
boils at one degree less tempera-
ture. In a vacuum, with little or
no %pressure) it boils at about so
degrees. This effect of diminished
pressure is utilized in sugar boil
ing, preparing extracts, distilling
vegetable oils, and other processes
where the substances are likely to
be injured by high temperature.
10. How is Condensed Milk Made?
Milk is seven eighths water. 1t
is condensed by boiling out a
large portion of the water. This
is done in a u pan, a kind
of large, closed, metal retort. A
partial vacuum formed in it, al
lows the evaporation to take place
at a lower temperature. This OBJ
viates the danger of burning, and
hastens the process.
II. What is a Barometer?

A Popular Official
Because of his work in the
county offices, residence in Mon

with which his work took him
around he was well and f%avorably
known in every part of the

He was fair in his dealings. our

preciative friends among them who
felt that they had indeed lost a
true friend and helper.

13. What other Uses Has the Bar

AS the rise and fall OF the bar

the barometer is an important in

of mountains, the relative altitude
of places above sea level, and for
determining the height reached by
balloons and airplanes. The com
mon suction pump is an application
of the barometer on a large scale.
The vacuum is produced by the
action of the valve attached to the

mon sense, and common sense die
tates this course"
He disavowed any inside informa-
ton, but said that he, as working
Republican who is both personal
friend and political supporter of the
President" was taking it for granted
that Coolidge would not risk having
the third term issue raised.
1.-THE Republican party" he said,
sis going to nave hard enough
time in 1928 without inviting certain
defeat" by injecting the third term
issue into the campaign. The next
successful candidate for the Presi-
dency must take stand against
prohibition, DR.. Butler added. "The
Eighteenth amendment has no place
in the Constitution, he said.
THE notion that either Governor
Smith or Governor Ritchie, should
he be the Democratic candidate, can
be defeated by Republican who is
not openly opposed to prohibition is
quite groundless," the Columbia
president continued. For the first
time since 1884, it seems likely that
the presidential election will be set
tied in 1928 by the vote of the city of
New York"
DR.. Butler also spoke of farm re-
lief and foreign affairs. 1T will not
do simply to say that the farm-prob-
lem will solve itself if left alone, 4"
he said. There is no sign that this
is true.
"The great agricultural States
have in the past been almost uni
formly Republican in national cleo
tions. There are pretty positive
signs that this will not be the case
in 1928 if the Republican party has
neither Candidates nor platform with
any appreciation of the gravity of
these questions and of the large
number of voting citizens who are
profoundly affected by them"
In the matter of foreign affairs,
he asked for "a quick and definite
return to the traditional policies" of
Mckinley and Hay. Roosevelt and
Root and Taft.

Spring-like weather which
has favored Indiana for eleven
days today was forecast to fall
before a cold wave which will
strike the Hoosier State some
time tonight or Wednesday.
The temperature will drop to be-
tween 10 and Is above zero tonight

Meteorologist J.. Fl. Armington pre-
dicted the mercury will drop to about

in the north portion it may get as
low as 10.
Fair weather Wednesday is ex-
pected to follow cloudiness during
the day and night.
Although snow furries and high
winds are forecast for the middle
west, Arlington expected little
snow to reach Indianapolis.
Decided Contrast
The Hoosier State will have some
high winds, according to the bureau.
The predicted fall in temperature
will come as a decided contrast to the
balmy period which began Jan. %.
The maximum temperature during
the period was 66 ON Feb. 5.
Arlington warned motorists to re-
