'Rayon'
A Five Year Wonde In
Industry

When the United States Department
of Commerce formally christened ray
on as a textile that had arrived on
the scene of our national life, it gave
due recognition to a new industry that
has increased by leaps and bounds in
five years..
1t is made from cellulose, the woody
fiber which forms the cells that sur
round the protoplasm or living mat
ter of all plants. This basic origin
gives it absolute stability, for as long
as we have plant life we can have an
unlimited supply of rayon undisturbed
by the vicissitudes of the cotton boil
weevil, sheep anthrax, bolshevism in
Russia, or war in China.
The cost of manufacture is so great
because of the extensive machinery re-
quired and the establishment of large
plants that it is only profitable to
produce rayon in large quantities. AS
will readily be seen, rayon has none
of the physical or chemical properties
of silk, being a vegetable product, and
so allied TO cotton. But being made
from the substance which the silk
worm transforms into silk in its own
body, it has the lustrous appearance
and beauty of silk.
1t is now being used for almost ev-
cry purpose that any other textile is
used. 1t catches the gloss of dressed
fur and is very extensively used in the
making of fabric furs. 1t gives a rich
lustre to pushes, velours and tapes
tries, and is found in practically all OF
them as well as in most silky draper.

Speaking of ultra violet ray treat
ments for children and grown-ups-
did you know forty million hens now
use these same rays and prove their
efficacy by yielding 40 to so per cent
more eggs?
Science has discovered hens lay best
when exposed directly to the suns ul-
tra-violet rays which they receive in
ample quantity during summer. In
fall and winter, however, little OF
none reaches them, for violet rays car
not penetrate ordinary glass into the
hen house.
Therefore Science presents the hens
with special windows of translucent
material that does transmit the health
giving rays. And presto-the deed i:
done! The new windows are strongly
constructed over a wire base, can bt
bought by the foot and installed with
out expert help.
To the many farm women who have
experimental long with egg laying
formulas this knowledge that concen
trated sunlight is all a good hen need
is most encouraging.

THE EMPTY NORTH

One of the most striking passages
of that ancient collection of literature
known as the Bible lis "He hangeth
the north over an empty place." 1t
is found in the book of Job.
The queer part of it is that astron-
nomically the north is a somewhat
empty place. In a measure you can
see for yourself that there are not
many stars in that direction.
All this is called to mind when we
read of General Mobiles flight over
the pole the past summer. He discov-
cred again what already had been dis
covered, that when you get to the
north pole you find nothing there
just frozen emptiness.
Think of all these years that men
have dreamed of getting to the north
pole, and striven for it, and died fol-
it. What does it amount to, after all ?
1t is simply record to make "a sort
of impossible line to toe, but all those
fanciful dreams of Simms, Hole and
the Others, about there being an undis.
covered country up there, are pure fic.
ton.

ing to the best textile experts, is its
extremely high lustre although today
those who do not see beauty in this
mirror like radiancy can find rayons
with less sheen and more of the ap-
pearance of the cocoon silk. It's high
sheen, however, does add tremendous
ly to the effectiveness of a fabric.
Then, too, its introduction into tex
tile art has made it possible to origi-
nate all manner of new designs and
weaves. AS it is of different chemi-
cal make up than the cocoon silk it
reacts toward the dye stuff in a diff
ferent way, making it possible to pro-
cure interesting cross dye effects.

A man advertises that he wants a
job, admitting he has been a burglar
for several years and saying he wants
to get into a legitimate line. His
training would probably be valuable
in great many businesses!
German matrimonial statistics show
that married men live longer than
bachelors. Probably they become so
accustomed to trouble that it doesn't
have any effect on them after while.
A New Yorker charged with MAX
ing out false check tried to eat it
in order to destroy the evidence. When
he made out the check he probably
didn't think that he himself would be
the goat.
A pickpocket, when arrested for
practicing his art, said he was only
doing so in an attempt to raise the
money for his bail bond. That's what
we call enterprise.

NOT TRESPASSING

Camden, N. 1.-Two men arrested
for swimming in a private lake were
released when it was shown that they
had not touched the bottom of the
lake. The men had entered the lake
on a side which was not private. If
they had allowed their feet to touch
bottom they would have been guilty of
trespassing. That was the decision of
Judge Katzenback, who freed the
swimmers.
