WIDENING OF
SHORE CANAL
DUE IN AUGUST

Deepening and widening of the
Chesapeake and Delaware Canal from
barge canal to full-sized ship canal
will be started early in August, Lieu
tenant Colonel John C. H. Lee, U. S.
Engineer, Philadelphia, district, has
announced.
Invitations for bids by contractors
for widening the canal from 80 to
$50 feet and deepening it from IL
feet, at mean low water, to 81 feet,
will be advertised in the first two
weeks of July by the U. S. Army En-
gineers.
Colonel Lee points out that the
President has approved the initial
expenditure of $5,107,000 for the
work to be done in the next fiscal
year, about one-half the cost of the
total project, and that the anticipated
1000 men to be employed directly by
the contractors receiving awards will
be taken off the relief rolls of Della
ware and Maryland when the opera
tions start.
The dredging of the enlarged canal
will start at Court House Point in the
Elk River, three quarters of mile
below the mouth of Back Creek and
proceed toward Chesapeake City, Md.
Dry excavation will be carried on be-
tween the Pennsylvania Railroad
Bridge, west of St. Georges, to Beth
ell, and will start at both points stimuli

In scarlet fever, for example, the
tongue looks like strawberry. In
ulcers of the stomach, it is usually
bright red and moist.
A thin white coating or Turing on
the tongue is not an alarming sign,
however, it is fairly common in peo-
pie who smoke reat deal or who
breathe mostly through the mouth.
The tongues appearance is said to
be most important in relationship to
diseases of stomach and intestines.
In this connection, however, it is not
an absolutely certain sign that some
thing is wrong, but only an indica-
ton.
There are, however, certain dis
eases of the tongue which give it
an unusual appearance. Some peo-
pie, for instance, have hairy tongues;
in others, the tongues have a mot
tied appearance, which makes them
resemble map. APPLY, this condition
is called geographic tongue.
If the tongue trembles slightly
when it is extended, disturbances of
the nervous system may be indicated.
This condition is likely to be noted
in cases of chronic alcoholism and in
general paralysis.
There are some diseases in which
one-half of the tongue becomes very
large, the other half remaining small.
A glandular disturbance usually re-
Elected in the body as a whole, is
frequently responsible.
In certain blood disorders, the ton
que is soft and easily damaged. When
this is the case, a bite of the tongue
brings on a large blue-black blister,
which may last for several days.
Children whose tongues are coated
because of common infectious diseases
can keep their mouths clean by using
mouth washes. In some cases, even
chewing gum helps to clean off the
debris.

MAN IS MADE
MOSTLY FROM
SOLID WATER

Man is made mostly water but it's
solid water, really form of hot
ice."
Experiments with "bound water"
which show this were described to
the American Association for the Ad-
vancement of Science by DR.. R. A.
Gortner of the University of Mime
sofa.
Bound water is the scientific term
to describe the water which is part of
the cells, or, living flesh. There is
similar bound water in all plants, ami
mails and insects.
If, said DR.. Gortner, science could
learn. how to set up an equilibrium
between bound water and it's environ
ment in the body, it would probably
be easy to solve the problem of eter-
nal life.
"Ponce De Icons spring." he re
marked would be found.
In this bound water of the tissues
he said it appears that the water mole
cules assume a lattice form, differ
ent in shape from the crystal lattice
which is ice, but similar in that it
makes the water more or less solid.
This bound water would not dissolve
in sugar.
This solid water, he suggested, may
have the molecular pattern, pattern
of "ice number SIX" which is the hot
ice made by DR.. P. w. Bridgman, of
Harvard, in his high pressure appara-
tus.
Under enormous pressures, DR..
Bridgman found that water will turn
into a solid, form resembling ice, at
temperatures running from 40 degrees
to 165 above zero.
Examination of winter wheat at the
University of Minnesota laboratories,
DIR. Gortner said; showed that to
squeeze out its bound water required
pressure equal to $50 times that of
the atmosphere.
The water acted like rubber. He
thought that similar solidity accounted
for the ability of insects to live thru
intense cold. Their bound water
would not freeze.
He recited experiments showing that
butterfly cocoons, with very few
days exposure to cold, underwent a
change in their bound water, so that
they stood 80 degrees below zero
without feeling.
DR.. Gortner said some such change
in bound water in man may explain
the ability of those accustomed to in
tense cold to stand bare handed tenn
peratures which would freeze tender
foot.
His discussion brought statement
that science is taking a renewed inter-
est in water metabolism in the body.
One of his listeners suggested that
the freeing of bound water might be
important in reducing obesity.
