The main question for most golf CTS is steel or wood -shafted irons Advertising has made the steel club popular and great quantity of these sets have been sold this year. The average golfer will get as good results with them as those shaftcd with hickory. while the crack play CTS, as d rule. stick 10 wood shafts.
 The aim of makers of steel shafts is 10 reduce in their clubs the feel" characteristic Of hickory. So far the effort has not been entirely success- ful and until that is accomplished il will be difficult to eliminate the orthodox shaft of wood.

promise proposal be accepted and presented by them to
The United States as alternative to the senate con-
dons. To this end. the league council is expected to
obtain approval Of the Geneva assembly in September.
There is even a better reason for delay in Wash
ngton The next senate debate the court when it
comes probably will determine for long time whether
we 60 into the court or stay out. The project cannot
stand another bitter senate defeat Therefore it is es
sentia that the most suspicious time and situation be
chosen for the debate.
Obviously any attempt to obtain action by the short
special session Of congress would nccessae something
akin 30 stean1-roler tactics and would encourage
fbuster with rancor replacing reason in determining
this vital issue
There can be little doubt that the Root formula will
be accepted by the senate as it is by American public
opinion provided only that unwse and ruthless parli-
amentary methods Of the majority do not make mar
tyrs Of the irrenconcable minority opposition.
The only fair way and the only effective way to
handle the irreconccables is to give them all the time
they need to state their case completely and to answer
their arguments with reason.
This can not be done by the assertion already
made by some pro-court leaders that the Root formu
Ia is essentially the same as the senate reservation.
The Root formula in fact is much the original
league position than to the senate reservation and
the Root formula will have to be defended honestly

The rejected senate fifth reservation would give the
United States discretionary power to prevent court ad

claimed to have an interest, which is in effect COM

agreement on requests for advisory opinions would
give the United States only the right to withdraw from
the court if the latter handled such case without
American consent.

uric acid is a factor in the oausa-
ton Of many diseases. notably
Bright's disease, govt, high blood
pressure and rheumatism, and that
uric acid arises in profuse amounts
from the eating Of meat.
That notion had enormous vogue,
although the evidence to support
it has. for the most part, been
invalidated thoroughly.
The actual facts are that uric
acid is always found in the blood
in some amount and that it is in
creased during the eating of con-
siderable quantities of meat. On
the other hand, it can not be proved
tl5at uric acid causes any of the
diseases that have been mentioned,
and there is plenty of good evil
dence that people who live on meat
and little if anything else not in
frequently do surprisingly we'll SO

The IInhelinvahle

Attorneys OF the state will find it difficult to be-
Ieve that such scene could be enacted in any court
in Indiana.
The editor of The Times had been called to Bloom
field to testify in the case of Daisy Sullivan Of his
own knowledge he knew nothing about it. All his in
formation had been received from Others most Of 1t
from the Judge who was conducting the hearing.
After three hours OF questioning upon the stand,
on every subject and possible topic the witness sug-
gested to the judge that the court must be humili-
ated and embarrassed by the unusual departure from
court decorun1.
Then the Judge made this most remarkable decla-
ration
Il will dismiss this witness if he will promise to
write and publish fair and impartial account OF this
trial" He was assured that The Times is always fair
and impartial.
The Implications we're most evident The INFER
ences are easily drawn The gross improperly Of such
declaration will be readily understood by attorneys
The incident suggests that in the investigation Of
crime and the growing disreSpect for courts there
may be necessity Of changes in the rural as well as
city districts,
Perhaps the trouble lies in the fact that we have
political Judges elected at general elections on party
tickets That opens the way for ignorant prejudiced
and malicious ren to get into Office.
The remedy may lie in providing for special cleo
lions for all judges in which the political parties Will
be barred.
Justice should not be blocked by either stupidity
or malice The Bloomfield brand seems to SAVIOR Oh

as much moisture as it could hold.
The rate at which evaporation will take place from
a body of water depends upon two things, the relative
humidity and the temperature
If the humidity is low. evaporation Will proceed at
rapid rate If it is high there will be little eyapo-
ration.
Evaporation is likely TO be more rapid IN warm
weather than in cold weather. because the air can
hold more moisture at a high temperature.
The ability of the air to hold more moisture at
high temperature than low one is the cause Of many
atmospheric phenomena.
Let us suppose that the air is warm and contains
hgh amount of moisture If the air is now cooled, 1t
can no longer hold all its moisture.
As result the moisture separates out ana con-
densation takes place.
The formation of dew. fog and clouds is the result
of such cooling of the atmosphere.
The temperature at which the air can no longer
hold the amount of moisture then in it is known as
the dewpoint
The temperature drop necessary to reach the dew
point Will depend of course upon the relative humidity
If the humidity is very high very slight drop VIII
bring the dewpoint. On the other hand II the hu-
mildly is low it viii take very considerable drop to
bring the dewpoint.
AS result it is possible to calculate the relative
humidity from an observation OF the dewpoint This
is simple experiment which L included In most high
school courses in physics.
