Novel Trial In Russia

Over in Soviet Russia they certainly employ novel meth ods of doing many things. A recent news story tells of court of industrial managers trying a case in which a pair of goloshes were the defendants.
 The goloshes were alleged to be of inferior quality and if the charge was substantiated the factory that manufactured them was to- be closed. The trial was said to be the first of a series designed to weed out inefficient and incompetent products.

How Long Skis Should Be

AS to the length of skis an expert lays down this rule: "When you are standing with your arm full length above your hend. the ski. placed up. right. should be at feast iong enough for It's tip to reach the roots of your fingers: 1t may well reach a few inches beyond the finger ends." The width should be about 2% inches In the nar- rowest part, where the foot rests, to 3A inches at the front bend. and the thickness should be from lA inches to as of an inch. The toe end of it is slOped gradually upward to avoid ob. staclcs and narrows to a point at Its extreme limit.

How to Raise Live Food
 for Soft-Billed Birds

Like the tropical fish fancier, the owner of soft-billed birds. such as thrushes and grosbeaks. Is concerned with having on hand a supply of meal worms to feed his pets. The easiest way of being sure of supply is to raise them.
 The method one bird fancier found successful was to mix screened gar den soil. leaf mold and peat moss (the latter obtained from a horist) and pack the mixture firmly. though not too hard, In a shallow wooden box. The whole was then wetted down with a sprinkling can and allowed to drain and the worms, obtained from bird f. ncler. were added Food for the worms was supplied In the form of leftover scraps from the table. such as potato or cC0kL oat meal. Occa. slonal replenlshing of the food supply and keeping the soil in the box moist was found to be all that was neces- sary for the worms to thrive and null tiply rapidly.
 One meal worm raiser suggests that it cloth is kept over the top of the box, when the cloth Is lifted large numbers of the worms will be found clinging to 1t. This makes an easy means of harvesting the worm crop.

HOW
NEW METHODS OF GIVING MUSCLES ENERGY WORK.-


 MUSCLES ENERGY WORK.- Two methods. hitherto unrecog nized, by which the muscles get the energy to do short but violent spells of work, such as running the i00-yard dash, were described at meeting of the American Physio logical society by pr. Jacob Sacks. of the University of Michigan phar- , macology department, says Scien' tific American.
 Normally the muscles do their work by burning tactic acid with the oxygen in the circulating blood. Occasionally the body must move very quickly during short period of time. requiring energy faster than oxygen can be carried to the muscle tissues by the blood. In these cases. Doctor Sacks reported, glycogen, or animal starch" stored In the muscles undergoes two quick chemical breakdowns.
 One of the products of the gly  cogen Is tactic acid in large amounts; another Is "hexosephos phate," glycogen and phosphorus compound. Energy sufficient for short but violent exertion Is the by product of both these processes. much as electrical action in bat tery. If the emergency continues, the heart has time to increase its rate of beat and pump enough oxy- gen-charged blood to the muscles to enable energy production to con tinue. Thus, policeman. sudden ly giving chase to thief. would call on the newly discovered quick energy processes for a good start but would gradually change back to the usual oxygen-burnlng method If the chase proved long one.

How Astronomers Cheek Distance

Astronomers are able to measure the distances to stars and planets by tri- angulation methods used by navigators and surveyors Sights are taken on the star from two distant points at the same time and the angles noted. Of course the distance between the two sighting points is known. so with the base line and the two angles being known the distance to the star can be easily computed. Distances to all important stars have been checked so many times that there Is no doubt as to the distance to each.-pathfind- CT Magazine.

 WheeIer's Home

Connecticut is one of the few states which makes a systematic effort to give some form of enl- ployment to the older blind people in their homes. The greater num- Der of blind people are those who are in middle life and beyond and the system of home teaching which the state board of education of the blind has developed serves the particular needs of this group. The teachers are blind and, after i'm structing the blind person in his home in reading and writing the Braille characters, an effort is made to develop manual dexterity. The men fashion baskets, trays, foot stools and other useful arti- cles while the women ply their needles or make rugs.
 It is. necessary to sell these products in order that the blind person may receive the full value of his work. This is done through the sales service of the state board which is continually arranging for the disposal of these many prod ucts. More than ITS sales are held
 every year in different parts of the state.
 Everywhere it has been found that the people of Connecticut are glad to cooperate in these efforts. Waterbury has welcomed these sales on various occasions and
 friends of the blind have been gen.
 erous in their patronage. Arrange
 ments have been completed for a | sale of these products at the home
 of Mrs George H. Wheeler, Spring
 Lake road and Wheeler avenue, | from 2 to 8 p. m., Wednesday, | August 8, in Waterbury.
