An Arctic expedition largely under
taken by Oxford university, England,
is about to start on an exploration
of north Bastland, a large island, 90
miles square, which lies to the north
east Of spltsenbergen. Two previous
attempts have been made TO explore
IT, The first in 1873 was by the Nor
wegian Nordenskiold, and was only
partly successful. A German expsdi-
ton In 1912 persisted in the attempt.
A specially designed seaplane will be
used. II will have closed cabin.
carry collapsible boat, and be
equipped with floats 80 designed that
landing may be made on the Ice The
plane will be provisioned for Ave
weeks. The main equipment Of the
expedition will be carried In two yes
sells, one S00-ton Norwegian whaler.
the other a small Norwegian sealing
sloop. The expedition will be led by

The French meteorological Teisse.

ord OF temperature observed by means
Of aeronautical researches In the up

the Atlantic. Good results were OBJ
taIned by an expedition by himself
and Mrs. ROtch In these regions, and,
contrary to expectations. It was found
that at high levels In the equatorial
afr much lower temperatures were re-
corded than at corresponding heights
In the temperate ATTITUDES. Over the
equator the lsOthermal zone seemed
TO be absent. But the temperature
continued to decrease up TO the high

eight miles or more II was found as
low as 112 degrees below zero Of

there Is no reason whatever to ques-

broad atmospheric current travel

to west at attitudes from five to eight
miles above the equatorial regions
and apparently circllng the globe. II

Determination Of the amount Of car.
bon dioxide gas In the fue gases from
blast furnaces is an important method
Of furnace control, but II has al.
ways been a difficult job to get sam
pies Of the hot gases for analysis. A
German firm has now invented meth
cd Of using electricity to make con-
tlnuous analyses OF the flowing gas.
Different gases have differing powers
Of heat transmission. Electrically
heated wires are passed through an
air chamber and through one filled
with fue gases. Electrical resistance
Of the wires changes with the temper
AZURE, and since the relative heat losses
measure the amount Of carbon dloxlde
in the fue gas, that percentage can
be easily measured by determination
Of the electrical resistance.

FRIENDSHIP KEY TO
HAPPY MARRIAGE TIE
Con,radeship Declared Best
Help in Storms of Lite.

II you ask half dozen friends
which quality ls most likely to make
for happiness In marriage you will
probably receive half dozen different
replies. And all will be Illuminating.
The man much occupied with bust
ness may regard common sense as su-
premely important. An imaginative
woman will tell you that sympathy Is
the first essential. while less sensi-
tive-mindsd woman suggests good
temper. The grace of cheerfulness,
the benediction of that ordinary"
kindness which, because SO rare, Is so
extraordinary, the sunshine Of
merry nature, the tender appeal Of un-
selfishness-all these qualities make
for happiness in marriage.
But what Is the anal test2 Which Of
all the varied characteristics Of human
nature is, II developed and cherished,
most likely. to bring enduring happi-
ness In marriage2
The answer IL to be found In an OBJ
servation not OF very new marriages
but Of those which have known years
Of storms, Of disappointment. Of dis
illusions. In happy marriages which
might 80 easily have been unhappy, Is
II not the power Of being companion
able which has kept husband and wife
tOgstherf
Marriages have often come to a
tragic end because the man and the
woman have not learned to be
friends In marriage where the joys
Of companionship have been incom-
pletely realized, a disappointment In
marriage as such may lead to per-
manent arrangement. But where
there is real friendship. a happy com
paniOnship. Joy In doing things to-
sether, the desire to continue great
comradsshlp may prove stronger than
the wish to end a disappointing mar
riage.
Modern women expect much more
from life than their mothers expected
l am always surprised and little en-
vioHs when, reading the novels Of the
latter Victorian days, l nnd how con
tented women were with little hap.
piness They made little Joy go a
long way.
The women Of today might take q
lesson from those unconscious hero
ines. II marriage as romantic rela-
tlonship has proved a disappointment
there is inspiration and refuge in the
knowledge that a friendship between
husband and wife may be the most
beautiful relationship in the world
becoming more lasting bond thar
the marriage tie itself.-Jane Tav

Great Painters Used
ERas to Mix Colors

Many pictures which pass as oil
paintings were not done with oil at
all, according to the directors Of the
Foss Art museum at Harvard. As
early az the Twelfth century eggs
were used for mixing paint In Italy
and for hundreds Of years painters all
over Europe did their work with pig
ments SO made.
The white OF the eggs replaced
vegetable gums as binding me-
dunn for many of the pigments; often
the white and yolk were mixed with
water and ag Juice, forming tenn
pera, from which fine colors were
ground and laid on white plaster-cov-
cred surfaces.
In the perfection Of the art the yolk
alone was used, and the quality OF
that article was closely examined. A
manuscript from the Fifteenth cen
fury, directs that "for the faces Of
young people you shall use the yolk
OF the egg of a city hen, as II Is light
er and less red In color than the yolk
Of the egg of country hen"
The rivalry between city and coun-
try hens In the Fifteenth century in
Italy IL said to have been intense.
During the intervening centuries this
has fallen of greatly, owing to inter-
marriage, and the joint descendants
Of those early families now unite en-
Enthusiastically In welcoming American
tourists to the scenes Of their ances-
tors triumphs.
The white Of an egg was used for
gliding to hold the gold-leaf on pan
els and frames. The yolk and white
were often mixed with colors for put
ting the finishing touches on frescC
paintings. Mixture Of egg, oil and
varnish were used in glass painting
the women Of the Renaissance favored
the use of egg In the decoration OF
their dresses, and painting with egl
adorned the finest furniture.
II IL said that In Russia the use OF
eggs persisted long after the introduc
ton Of oil, as II was considered more
appropriate to the representation OF
The art of egg painting reached III
perfection In Italy In the Fifteenth
century, and, having reached It, van
lshed Nothing In the history OF ar
Is more striking than the fall Of TEN
pera painting, which, having spent 3Ot
to 400 years In achieving completion
died Of Its own perfection.

INDUSTRIAL
CORPUS Christi Caller)

Never before, according to Secretary OF Labor
James j. Davis, has American industry been 50 free
from strikes and other evidences Of labor troubles.
His statement was made 70 the convention OF the
American Federation Of Labor at Los Angeles. Wage
scales, he said, are higher than they have been hereto
fore. Labor is being well paid and, in return, is giving
a good measure Of service. Relations between capital
and labor are excellent, save in a very few isolated
instances.
There is reason to believe that the day Of an
tagonism between capital and labor has passed into
the realm Of things forgot. The dividing lire becomes
more faint. Labor is learning that it has q very direct
interest in the welfare of capital; that industry, to be
profitable to labor, must be profitable as well to CAPT.
tai; that the concern Of one is the concern Of the other
Capital, on the other hand, has learned a lesson
that is equally valuable. It has learned that ruthless
disregard of the rights Of labor is as conducive TO dis
aster as poor management; il has learned that Amer
lean labor is intelligent, awake to the problems of pro-
duction and marketing. and eager TO cooperate in build
ing UP an enduring industry; 1t has learned that labor
may become capital overnight.
1t Is one Of the best omens in American life 70
day, this approach to mutual understanding. We
haven't reached the millennium, of course. Always there
will be maleontents eager TO agitate unrest for their
personal aggrandizement. Always there will be In
efficient, weak representatives Of both capital and lE
Dor. But the number Is so few, and decreasing SC
rapidly, that there is reason to hope strife will disap.
pear from the industrial scene.

WATCHES N MEN

Some time ago, In this column, l told Of stories ]
had heard about men on whom watches would not keep

by both men. ! asked whether any Of my readers could
offer experiences as a guide in solving the question.
I have this from d. L. Barber, Goshen, Connect

it a week or two; then he would take his turn.
"In his pocket it would 60 on its sprees again. We
tried this changing back and forth nearly a dozen
times, with the same results. Finally we consulted a
jeweler in New Britain, Conn, where we lived at that
time. He explained that 4. was the difference in mag
netism in the two men that caused the trouble. ! do
not know whether his diagnosis was correct.
"The fact remains that the watch was very much
o. X. in my pocket, and decidedly N. G. in my brothers

II am willing to make oath TO this"
This is very interesting to me. / shall not fail to
call it to the attention Of my scientific friends.
What really caused the watch to act that way! i
do not know. Magnetism. the ieweler said. But did
the jeweler know? And what is magnetism? The
word is very loosely used to signify a great many
things. What does it mean when it is used in this
way? / am afraid the jeweler couldn't tell very pre-
cisely.
! would very much like to hear Of other authenti-
Gated cases Of this kind, II there are any. Another
thing. The opinion and experience Of an intelligent
jeweler who has handled many watches ought to help
clarity this matter.

folk IL we can collect enough evidence.

SINGLE TAXER SEES COUNTRY
IN TROUGH OF ECONOMIC SEA

WASHINGTON, Oct. S.-These
ultra-high protection, su~per-central-
lied, hyper-regulated times Of big
business control Of everything earth
ly, aerial and aquatic would have
seemed to me like the last period in
history that a good Single Taxer
could get any satisfaction out Of.
Yet they suit Louis +. Post-or
what he thinks they f~oreshadow
suits him, anyway.
And il Louis r. Post says the
times are all right, they must be-
from the Single Tax standpoint. The
spirit Of Henry George. who died 30
years ago, is the Single Takers
god, but Louis +. Post is his prophet.
Tom L. Johnson was an eminent
Single Tax evangelist. Il believe in
its gospel" Mark Twain testified.
william Jennings Bryan was Of the
congregation in his youth. and al
though he strayed to other faiths
later in life, he never forgot or
wholly deserted that one.
Most of the great men Of this
early group are gone.
Louis +. Post remains nearly
alone, Of Henry Georges personal
associates, still keeping the original
altar fire burning, as he approach
es so.
As previously remarked, I'D have
expected him to show signs of dis
couragement in an era when, with
the shadows closing in about him,
practically everything, as it looked
to me, is exactly the way n Single
Taxer wouldn't have had it.
You never saw a more cheerful
old gentleman. (He'd pass for co.

remarked, as he let me into his

The Valley Port

The unfavorable report Of Colonel J. L. Sehley,
district engineer, relative TO the dredging Of a S0-foot
harbor at Point Isabel does not signify that the Valley
must necessarily abandon its efforts 10 secure a harbor
which will accommodate deep draft boats. IL does sig
nifty, however. that the Valley must be firmly united
In the appeal to the Board Of Engineers for Rivers and
Harbors.
Il Is Of course unfortunate that Colonel Schley did
not report favorably upon the 3o-foot project. he
ktates that present and prospective tonnage Is not
Sufficient to justify a greater depth than the 16-foot
harbor now nearing completion. The Valley believes
that there Is sufficient potential tonnage to fully justi-
5y the deepening Of the harbor, and in the appeal to
the board Of engineers this fact will be fully set forth.
Should the appeal fail the Valley will carry on the
fight, but il win assume n different direction. Colonel
Echley states in his report that the present project
ehould receive a fve-ycEr trial to determine whether
the Valley. TO develop tonnage which will clearly demonl
btrate to the federal government that the deeper port Is
Necessary. The Valley must be organized TO develop this
tonnage. Every ton Of incoming or ~outgoisg freight that
can be handled through the port should be so routed.
Valley shippers, business firms Of every description, con-
Tractors, in fact, every interest Of the Valley. should
be mobilired 70 add 20 the business through the port,
and every ton Of incoming freight will serve 10
ktrengthen the Valleys claims.
This organisation for the development Of tonnage
" absolutely essential. regardless Of what action may
be taken on the Valleys appeal. II the board does de-
eide 20 recommend the necessary appropriations for
fhe s0-foot channel, organization will be necessary to
ereate business for the port, and there should be no
unnecessary delay in effscting this organization.
IL 10 now very apparent that the organization of a
navigation district Is very essential. There are many
problems In connection with port development which
rannct be solved without such organization. and IL
possible. the district should be functionins by tha time
he dredging Of the channels Is completed in January.
ere will be no necessity for heavy expenditures or
bend issues In connection with port development,
organization Of = navigation district will provide
eans whereby future development Of the pert
can be handled promptly and efficiently.
be Valley In it's efforts 20 secure deep water at
Isabel has met and overcome more serious OBJ
cs than the recent unfavorable report Of the army
knsers. IL has overcome these obstacles because Il
united: because the people Of the Valley realized
necessity which exists for water transportation and
mer rates; and IL they present a united front at this
me IL IL very probable they will overcome the obsta-
IA now confronting them. A So-foot harbor may be
krkieved immediately, bat a unified Valley can eventu-
Ally achieve IL and can make IL the most important
