Stolen Auto
Quickly Found

When some luckless person with
out a means Of transportation de-
cided yesterday afternoon to get
where he was going by taking the
automobile of Hazel Livingston, re-
porter for the district attorney, he
made a mistake.
Mrs. Livingston parked her car
down town, went into a drug store
for lunch, and came out to find her
car gone. She Immediately reported
the loss to city police and the sher-
ifs office.
Eddie Nett at the county jail ran
up a long distance telephone bill on
the county calling Yuma, Boulder
Park, Banning and other outlets to
the valley. The bill was justified
when Banning called back last
night with the information that the
car and a man named Dodson were
in custody.
Dodson asserted someone loaned
him the car. A deputy sheriff was
to leave here today to return the
borrowed car and the borrower to
Ell Centre, where he may face a
charge Of grand theft.

| HUGE TELESCOPE
REVEALS MANY
new UNIVERSES

PASADENA, Cal. April 27 U.n)-
Imagine the universe which sur
rounds cur earth which includes in
its galaxy millions OF stars. BY
stretching the imagination a bit,
multiply this by 30.000,000 other un-
iverses. and one can conceive the
countless number of stars which
are visible through the 100-inch
telescope on Mount Wilson.
But with the completion of a
new 200-inch lens. 100000 addi-
ticnal universes viii theoretically
be brought into view.
DR.. Edwin Hubble, astronomer at
the Mount Wilson observatory. who
counts stars as the grains of sand
in the sea. made this prediction
during the course of an informal
laboratory lecture.
With DR.. Milton Humason. DR..
Hubble has explored the depths OF
space to a distance of 300.000.0o0
light years. The time it takes light
to reach the earth from the limit of
their observations at the rate of

creation depend upon estimates OF
the velocities of the nebulae. which
are moving at great speed, it has
been more difficult TO measure the
distance of the farthest universes
with any great accuracy. DR.. Hubble
pointed out.
Nebulae moving away from The
earth record less light IN specuunls
than those approaching the earth.
and thus it might appear that neb-
ulae moving n the direction of the
earth was much closer than it really
was. he said.

After finishing their orations,
the class was relieved to be able
to draw up in circle and just talk
one of the topics which seemed to
fascinate the members Of the class
was personality. The development
of the attribute was discussed.
Closely associated with personality
was the discussion Of a code of eth

life. One Of the things decided up
on was that happiness could not be

attained by an active interest in
other people.
A political fever has seized some
of the Junior college students.
Being dissatisfied with the gen.

body, a group has instituted a po-

the college.

Every child can have sound teeth and
strong bones. The essential feature OF
ricketts, is defect in the development OF
the bones.
One of the most striking medical
achievements of the past 10 years re-
lateS to the experimental studies OF
ricketts, to determine the underlying
causes OF the disease and the nature
of the vitamin which is most 1mpor-
tant in preventing its occurrence.
AS short time ago as 1921 it was
discovered that a diet which was high
in calcium, low in phosphorus and de-
ficient. in a vitamin which is now
identified as vitamin D. combined with
lack of exposure to sunlight, caused the
development OF severe ricketts, in about
three weeks Vitamin D was discovered
to exist in cod liver oil.
At that time cod liver oil was the
only known preventive medicine or
remedy for ricketts,. The attention Of
doctors had already been called to the
fact that sunlight was beneficial in the
treatment OF the disease, but the idea
was not generally accepted until shortly
after the World War. Europe at that
time was filled with children with severe
ricketts, caused by wartime food short
age, and the new sunshine treatment
was widely applied.
In 1924 it was found that certain
vegetable oils become anti-rachitic upon
exposure to ultraviolet light.
The relationship of vitamin D to the
prevention and cure Of ricketts, Is now
universally recognized. 1t Is equally
important In maintaining normal bodily
conditions. Calcium and phosphorus
cannot be properly assimilated by the
body without vitamin D. During the
past year the incorporation of this i'm
portant vitamin in bread has been
under investigation by scientists seeking
to make available an additional general
source of vitamin D at no extra cost
which would be of value not only to
children, but to people Of all ages. 1t
should be understood, however, that
In the case of rapidly growing infants
and young children. whose consumption
of bread is very small and who need
q considerable amount of vitamin D,
cod liver oil should still be given.

And I am to be the leader.
Fact Is, I talk Self-rising Flour
80 continuously that one of the girls

with each one of Us to bake some
thing with 1t. So I wrote to the mill
and got some of the new Cook Books
and have sent one to each of those
coming to the partY-marking the
recipe she was to follow.
1.-THE party is going to be here at

banner to drape above the serving
table In honor of the occasion.

one teaspoonful Of grated onion. one

liked one teaspoonful of capers to one

Horseradish sauce is another good
accompaniment to fried or baked hsh,
cold meat, ham, and other dishes.
Make the sauce by adding one table
spoonful Of grated horseradish to one

why children in the So-called tenn

amount OF sunshine offered an obvious
explanation, but the Eskimos pass each
year through very long night when
they get no sunshine whatsoever. and
because Of the severity Of the climate
and the nature of their clothing prob
