.ICE CREAM STORES
 ULTRA VIOLET RAYS
Exposed to Light Cures Tickets
 in Rats

New Brunswick, N. J, Aug. 30 IPf-The latest and one of the strangest ways of storing up ''arti- ticial sunshine'-that is, ultra-vio- let light irradiation-is in ice cream.
 This confection. when exposed to the ultra violet light of a mercury lamp at Rutgers university for two to 10 minutes, cured rickcts if fed to white rats.
 Furthermore, it was found that ice cream retained it's curative properties for at least two months, when stored at low temperature. about 10 degrees below zero Fahren- heit
 The experiments were performed by Prof. Walter c. Russell and Prof. Forrest c. Button of the de- partmcnts of agricultural biochcm- istry and dairy husbandry, and Orme J. Kahlenberg. graduate student.
 "Tho observations, it was con- cluded,' says a report from Rut- gers, Served primarily as an addi- tional item to the evidence which is being accumulatd concerning food Nitamins and the food value Of ice cream"

 Sir Douglas already has more than 1000 applications for the eight scientific berths on the ex- petition.

There will be a crew of 2S, and one photographer, one airplane pilot and one air mechanic.
 The greater part of the scientific work will be in weather observa- tions, soundinGs of ocean depths for the story they reveal about tn nature of the land buried undal Antartica's ice. and plankton re search-that is. study of the food supply of south polar fish.

Sydney, Australia, Aug. 30 PS- The air 30 miles above the earth will be studied by the Sir Douglas Mawson Australian antarctic eXpe- dition at the end of this year.
 It is perhaps the only polar eX- petition to attempt such lofty al titude penetration. The work will be done with special spectroscope and photography, to learn more about the reputed existence of ! rich layer of ozone.
 These experiments are important. says Dr. Dufficld, director of the Commonwealth observatory, for one thing because ozone is believed to absorb the bulk of ultra violet light.
 "Ozone," he says, occurs 20 to 30 miles up. By taking part in the world wide scheme of measurement of ozone originated at Oxford, Eng l land, we hope to find out more about the conditions under which it is formed.
 Experiments may show whether reception of wireless signals is in hany way connected with ozone, for the place where it occurs is not far

the southwestern country calls for labor and half a million Mexicans have been imported~for work in the last 10 years. The theory is that, with the reservations so nearby, tens Of thousands of these jobs could have been taken over by Indians The Indians are regarded as good workers, clever with hands, tools and machines.
 The interior secretary's theory, of course. is a frightful commentary on the intelligence and competence of previous administrators. of Indian affairs. II is a tacit admission that the third-rate politicians who have landed Interior Department and In dian bureau jobs in the past have let their situation go from bad to worse while the Indians suffered and died.
 The government disclaims re- sponsibility for feeding its Indian wards. It has been many years since they were rationed. Reservation superintendents are still supposed to ration destitute and decrepit men and women, but that hasn't affected the general condition of under nourishment.
 William Atherton Du Puy of the Interior Department, a lifelong stu dent of the Indians, tells your cor- respondent of an instance where the Work for Indians' theory has all ready demonstrated its success. He was out on the pacaton agency in Arizona recently talking to Hugh | Patton, a full-blooded Pima Indian who keeps a store there.
 More Work-LeSS Sickness
 Du Puy knew that these Indians once had a great deal of tuberculo- sis and trachoma and he asked Pat ton why these diseases had mostly disappeared.
 The Pimas used to be very poor he quotes Patton as replying. They were stranded here with no chance to make a decent living. From the time they were small children until they grew old they rarely had all they wanted to eat They were un- s,o'c to throw off disease, so weak were their bodies.
 But in recent years they have been going away and earning money, They have been working especially in the cotton fields of Salt River 1 Valley. They have had plenty Of 1 money to buy food and they have been well nourished. So they have thrown off the diseases they used 10 ! have and got well. The young ones l have not contracted disease. They are 9 quite healthy people,"

Secretary Wilbur Has New Remedy for Red Mems Woes

Washington, Aug. 24-"Work for the 1ndians." is the keynote of the program which Secretary of the In- terior Ray Lyman Wilbur is work ing out for the rehabilitation of the S5O,000 red men on the govern nents 200 reservations.
 We want to get them away from inc reservations,' Wilbur says. Reservations are the worst kind O.. places for them and they ought to have a chance to share in America T prosperity"
 The next session of Congress pron- ably will receive requests from the Indian bureau for authorization and appropriations for an Indian em- oloyment agency. which will be the foremost item in plans now under formulatlon by Wilbur and Indian Commissioner Charles J. Rhoads.
 He Hasn't Much Chance
 Wilbur and Rhoads are going on he theory that the Indians lack of opportunity for productive effort is f. argely responsible for his many troubles. Health conditions on the excavations, which have long been public scandal, are now traced to 1nder-nourishment brought about oy the Indians inability to feed him. ielf.
 Baby death rates and tubercuo- sis death rates have been four or five ines as high among the Indians as 'mong white populations, and trachoma has for years been racial scourge.
 The custom has been to attribute his to the non-resistance of the ,borigines to white mems diseases. Congressional committee have gone o the reservations to investigate, ieen the terrible conditions for themselves and returned to yell fer nore doctors, nurses and hospitals.
 But Wilbur believes he has gotten the root of the trouble when he ites under-nourishment as the great Wil of the Indians.
 The Institute for Government Re earch, after it's exhaustive study, 'eported that 90 per cent of the reservation Indians were under lourished.
 Wilbur says they have lacked ood because they have lacked jobs. On the reservations they are iso- ated and absolutely idle, with no chance to earn any money. So they sit and starve and die. Meanwhile,

The Evening Story
Youth, Maude!

"T>oMoRRow night, Phill' Maude
Barnes said as she closed the
door softly after him and then creft to
the little room on the third floor back
to consult her mirror on this moment
GUS question. An hour later. clad in
humility and her pajamas. she was still
seated in face-to-face tete-a-tete with
this old friend who neither lied nor fiat
tered, but told the plain unvarnished
truth-that she was getting old. 1t
pointed to the hordes of tiny wrinkles
that swarrned over her face, to the
graying hair. the sagging skin, the tired
eyes that looked wistfully back at her,
all the ominouS signs of the ravageS of
time which would eventually win a
battle with youth in whose ranks she
had tarried too long.
With catch in her throat and an
ache in her heart she crept into bed
and lay wide-eyed, recalling past events
in her life.
Youth, Maude! There is nothing
like YOUTH" her mother used to say.
Youth, Maude!" Aunt Sally would re-
iterate, until youth, Maude," became
a command almost second in impor-
tance to honor thy father and mother"
Hence Maude's frantic attempt to hold
youth, which had now resulted in the
proposal of handsome debonair Phil
Baxter, who personified that youth to
which she so tenaciousiy clung.
One. two, three o'clock found her
still reviewing the past; reviewing her
many Suitors who came up from away
down the ages to parade before her.
There was Max Smith-Max had a
tooth out--and hadn't had time to
get it in-she couldn't abide that
gaping cavity in a habitually gaping
mouth There was Josh Billings. Josh
had taken her to banquet and with
courtly bow, had said: Now, Maude,
just reach in and help yourself. If
you'll excuse me. I'm going to dig In. -
And he had dug in-dug his face so
effectually into a cob Of corn that
only his wet ears and buttered nose
were visible. Then there was Bill Bras
herl She had almost married Bill, but
with the impetuosity and imperious-
ness of youths. she couldn't stand the
flop of his pants-hip flop -fiip-hop,
these generous appurtenances topped
back and forth around his No. IA boots
like an awning in stiff breeze. Never
theless. she loved Bill, but had found
out when 1t was too late. For some
trivial offenSe, Maude had allowed Max
to "cut In" on Bill's dance, and Bill
had "cut out" seizing his hat and
coat as he ran and lost no time until
he reached the Middle West. And so.
dwelling upon the vagaries of fate and
Bill Brasher, Maude fell asleep.
But the next mornings glorious
sunshine that flooded the little room
on the third floor back, made the
morning after the night before look
like a bad dream. Touching UP her
face with the apothecary's magic wand,
Maude hurriedly dressed and 8 o'clock
found her tripping hlithely down the
