Carbon monoXidc gas is colorleSS
and odorleSs. It is produced when
wood, coal, coke, Illuminating gas, or
gasoline is burned. If the flame is
hot, it is burned more completely
than when the flame is slow and has
insufficient air. Small amounts of
carbon monoxide cause headache and
other symptoms; large amounts pro-
duce death.
Because of the extensive occurrence
of carbon monoXide in various indus
trial pursuits, the New York State
Department of Labor has issued q
warning to workers to be posted In
plants in which various combustibles
are employed. These include partic-
ularly plants in which machines are
used which are heated by gas. The
warning applies to workers in the gas
industry, garages or service stations,
furnaces, steel mills, celluloM manu-
facture, acetylene welding. brass
foundries and various chemical in
duStrieS.
A few of the suggestions are so
simple that every workman should
become familiar with them. These
suggestions are particularly applicable
to workers in the home, because IL
Illuminating gas used for cooking pur-
poses is a dangerous source of gas
poisoning.
Il. If there is a yellow flame heat
ing your machine, report this fact at
once. There should be a blue flame
at all times. A yellow flame gives
off carbon monoXide.
2. "Never use a gas-heated appliance
which is connected up by means OF
flexible rubber or metal tubing. This
is not safe. The only flexible tubing
which does not leak is an approved
cloth-covered tubing.

Carbon Monoxide Dangers
Because Gas Is Colorless and Odorless, Precautions Should
Be Taken Wherever Combustibles Are Used

find a leak in your tubing by running
a lighted match along it? It win
light only when there is a very large
leak. There may be many small
leaks which make it dangerous to
work at your machine, YER though
those places do not permit enough
gas to go through to actually light
up when you apply a match to them.
a. When you r working over an
open flame, do not put any utensil
on the fire which is so large as to
cover the flame too completely. This
keeps the air out, and increases the
amount Of carbon monoxide gas
which is produced.
IS. Do not try to patch q leak Or
make any adjustments yourself. Close
off the gas till the repair man comes.
IS. If the gas pressure changes
report the fact at once. If there is
too great pressure, the gas will not
burn properly and will give off con-
siderable carbon monoxide gas. II
there is too little pressure some Of
the port holes in your appliance may
not light. This will happen p%articu-
larly If they r dirty, and filled with
SCOT. Those port holes which do not
light leak q certain amount Of gas,
and injure your health. AS has al
ready been stated, the fact that you
do not smell any leaking gas is no
indication that there is no leak.
~. If you find that you get a
headache at your work, carbon mon
oxide may be present in the air. Look
for leaks and poor connections. Re-
port your headaches to your employer
and the plant doctor, so that they
a find out if your headaches are
caused by carbon monoxide gas.
IS. If you are not feeling well see
a doctor right away. If you get head
aches at work due to gas, try some
other kind Of work. It does not pay
to remain where you are and perma-
nently iniure your health"

on this ground" declares Lowell
Sherman.
The Radio Pictures featured play

ture. Bachelor Apartment" showing
Monday at the Capitol theater, makes
history as a film philanderer in the
sparkling witty and smart story Of
interviewer love affairs.
In fact, as Sherman dubs his W

the picture; of the smooth subtle
sort OF he-vamps the popular actor
has portrayed so many times in both
silent and talking pictures and on the
stage.
MANY a man thinks too highly OF
his masculinity around women
Sherman remarks. "There is a time
and a place for masculinity unadul-
terated. On the football field, for In

room at the golf club. But when
counting a woman, even if you use
caveman tactics, subtlety is appreci-

AT THE MOVIES

Paul Lukas, like a mere handful
Of other screen actors such as Will
liam Powell and George Bancroft, has
come up from villainy to roles that
more nearly merit adulation.
His most recent portrayal, inciden-
tally his most important to date, that
of Stephen Lucarno, in 1.-THE Vice
Squad" now playing at the Para
mount Theatre, is an evidence Of his
climb toward the good bad man"
fraternity.
Lukas made his American film de-
but in Loves of an Actress" where
he was a sutton of Pola Negri. He
was neither villain nor hero. But in
Three Sinners" and 1.-The Woman
from Moscow" with Miss Negri, he
was a villain Of the worst type-one
who is unfaithful to his sweetheart.
Then followed menace parts in "Hot
News" Manhattan Cocktail" and
"Shopworn Angel" The latter gave
him his first chance at being a SYM
pathetic bad man." for he readily
gave up Nancy Carroll to Gary
Cooper, because he thought she would
be much happier than as his lover.

EMBARGO ACTION


On June 10, 1917, 1t was announced
that President Wilson had decided to
exercise in full the powers conferred
upon him by the embargo clause in
the espionage law and thereby make
it impossible for neutral countries or
the allies of America to export from
this country SO much as a buShel of
wheat or the smallest quantity Of
any other essential commodity with
out obtaining a license and the ap-
proval of the exports council.
The council was to be composed of
Herbert Hoover and representatives
of the departments of state, war, navy
and commerce.
The statement was made through
Secretary Redfield of the department
of commerce.
President Wilson was to assume
full responsibility for the decisions
made, and in reaching his conclu-
sionS he was to have at his disposal
all Of the information and advice Of
Secretary Of State Lansing and Mr..
Hoover.

berger brought into the world will be found useful. It
will become a part Of the basic groundwork Of knowledge
which Is the foundation Of all scientific advances.
The first vitamin and the name for the substance
was discovered by DR.. Casimir Funk. He isolated a
crystalline substance which proved to be a cure for
beri-beri. Analysis showed it to contain nitrogen in
basic form and for this reason he suggested that it
belonged to a class of substances which chemists call
"amines." Since its presence in food meant life. instead
of death, he called the substance Life-amine, Vita anime,
and finally vitamin.

Once upon a time, not so very
many years ago, when it rained IN
summer and showed in winter,
something very strange happened in
the Hollow Stump School where the
Lady Mouse Teacher taught the an
imal children their lessons. II was
on a Friday morning, when Sammie
and Susie Littletail, johnnie and
Billie Bushytail and Jackie ana
Petite Bow Wow, as well as all the
bunny boys and girls of Uncle Wig
gily. were thinking, happily, that It
would soon be Saturday when there
was no school. -.-sa
All of a sudden Sammie Littletail,
who was a rabbit boy, gave a~ioud

Mouse Teacher.

For a man and woman, brief ca

day in the execution chamber OF the
Pennsylvania state prison at Bellefonte.
Little more than year ago the atten-
tion of the whole country was centered
on the chase for Irene Schroeder and
Glen Dague which extended all the way
across the continent, to end in desper-
ate fight in the wilds of the Arizona
desert, resulting in their capture.
For them all is over. But their debt
to society is not paid. Others carry the
burden of their shame and will continue
to carry it for years to come.
Both left families, having forsaken
husband and wife to go off together on
their wild campaign. These families are
among those who must continue to pay
for their waywardness. They brought
sorrow and suffering to the family OF the

SEELEY VICTIM
OF CAR CRASH

Joe Potter. aged Seeley resident,
was injured by hit and run driver
Saturday afternoon when an auto
mobile containing four or five Mex
leans struck Potter, riding bicycle
on the New River hill near Seeley,
knocked him from the bicycle. and
drove on without stopping.
Potter was badly hurt, although
no bones were broken. He was
bruised about the head and body.
On account of his age the injuries
may have a serious effect. 1t Is
thought he will recover.
Potter s bicycle became fastened
on the front OF the MeXicans car,
an old model yellow roadster, when
the crash occurred. The Mexlcans
drove on into Seeley and stopped
at a service station, where they re-
moved the bicycle from the front OF
their car.
At that time the service station
operator did not know that an accl-
dent had occurred, and paid no par
ticular attention to the Mexlcans
or their car. They drove on towards
CaleXico. he later told officers.
A passing motorist picked up the
old man and carried him to Seeley.
The incident was reported to the
sheriff S office, and deputies made
an investigation, trying to appre-
hend the hit and run motorists.
