Amazing Discovery

A S the chemical convention now
L y in session at Atlanta had de-
cided to inform President Hoover,
corn is the most substantial source
Of hooch, and there still is plenty
Of corn.
Considering the many trips Presi-
dent Hoover has made to the Vir-
GINA mountains, one wonders why
the chemists should imagine he
needed this peculiar bit Of infor-
nation. But let that pass.
It is good to know that the
chemists are catching up with the
public when it comes to exact
knowledge concerning the origin of
our alcoholic supply.
= q
Jokes aside, the chemists are not
SO backward in their own field of
endeavor.
Some of the discoveries an
nounced, or forecast, at this con-
vention are little less than Stagger-
ing.
Sugar from cottonseed, celluloid
from the fuzz, gas from the farm
waste, and most of our clothing
from synthetic fiber, only to men
ton a few.
We are getting revolution in more
than one experimentation which
alters, not only the industrial, but
the agricultural set up.
The next generation may look to
the cotton crop to satisfy its sweet
tooth, while publishers look to the
sugar cane for their paper.

tell anecdotes over the air. I'm not
much of a fellow to laugh at my
own jokes, and anything of humor-
GUS intent which falls without a
cackle is exceedingly depressing.
Years ago I used to lecture. It
never was possible for me to COM
nit the material to memory, but
mostly I could get by through the
expedient of carrying three funny
stories around with me.
Some kind person in the audience
would chuckle little, or, at any
rate, shift his feet. Under this pro-
tective screen it was possible for me
to collect my thoughts and then
proceed.

TN an analysis of the various
L measures used in the treatment
of sick headache, DR.. Frederick
Tilney emphasizes the Importance
of distinguishing this type of
headache from that due to many
other causes.
The sick headache attack is
likely to begin with feeling of
chilliness and of dizziness. The
vision seems to become blurred.
At such times, Tilney feels that a
cup of hot coffee will help to avert
the serious developments.
After the sick headache devel-
ops, the pain is relieved by the
use Of various remedies, most of
which are of such strength that
it is necessary to have a physicians
prescription in order to use them
successfully.
The physician keeps in mind the
danger of prolonged use of various

Sir Ernest ShGckleton Died on
Fourth Voyage to Antarctic
and Was Buried on South
Georgia Island.
BY DAVID DIETZ

ON the icy slopes of South
~ Georgia Island in the Antarctic
region is the grave of Sir Ernest
Shackleton- Death overlook the
great Englishman on his fourth
voyage to the south polar regions.
DR.. Griffith Taylor, professor OF
geography at the University of Chi
cago, sums up Shackleton'S work by
saying, mo man has done more to
decipher the secrets Of the south
pole than Ernest Shackleton."
Shackleton made his first journey
into the Antarctic as lieutenant in
Captain Robert SCOTS expedition
which set sail Christmas Eve, 1901.
He accompanied Scott on his jour
ney by dog-sled to latitude 80
degrees Is minutes, but developed
scurvy and had TO be sent back
home when the relief ship arrived
in January, 1908.
Shackleton headed his own ex-
petition into the Antarctic in 1908.
His ship was the Nimrod. He left
New Zealand on New Years day.
A steamer towed his ship to latitude
sc degrees in order to save coal
aboard the Nimrod.
Scott had lost faith in dogs for
Antarctic exploration when his
animals Sickened and died during his
push TO the south. Shackleton, who
had been with him, shared his view.
Instead of taking dogs along on the
Nimrod, he carried Shetland ponies.

No One Can Tell What Effect
Prohibition VII Haze on
An Election, or Whether 1t
WI Haze any Effect.
SAYS

THIVALRY suggests only bou-
~ quets for Mrs. Ruth Hanna
Mccormick, but, like everything
else, chivalry suffers when mixed
with politics.
So we find Senator Norris pro-
posing an investigation of primary
expenses, while other people wonder
just what Chicago, Illinois, or the
nation has gained since Mrs. Nc
Cormick'S triumph includes that of
the Thompson Grove crowd.
1t Is somewhat paradoxical to
behold this first lady senatorial
nominee in the spotlight, with Big
Bill claiming a large share of the
glory, while a crowd of gangsters
and racketeers forms the support
ing chorus.
The fact that wet votes put her
there in spite of her ardent en-
thusiasm for the eighteenth amend
ment would be equally paradoxical
if we had not became accustomed to
such inconsistency.
1t all can be explained by the
presence Of overpowering desire
to save our country from the world
court.
That is what made Mrs. McCor-
mick and Big Bill comrades and
what caused prohibition to play
such an unimportant part.
In any other place, such explain
alton would sound fishy, but we
have learned to regard Chicago as
toreign-minded in her politics.
-Four years ago, it was an over
towering desire to save our country
from King George that landed Big
Bill IN the mayors chair.
This latest example of Chicago's
determination to prevent the
United States from getting into
unnecessary trouble through en-
tangling alliances, regardless of
causes or consequences, is merely in
line with her best traditions.
