Nature of Electricity
Not Fully Understood

Electricity is known TO he form

According to one authority: "lnnum-
erable attempts have been made to
ascertain the true nature OF cleo
tricity. but II cannot he said that
as yet there is any true knowledge
of what this subtle agent really Is"
According TO the electronic theory
or hypothesis. the atom OF matter Is
made up OF smaller bodies called
electrons. electrical in their nature,
and consequently all matter ulti-
mately Is electrical, the atoms OF
the different elements OF matter con-
sisting of certain number OF cleo
irons, thus 700 In the hydrogen
atom and 1900 in the oxygen atom.

theory. 1t serves TO explain a great

By THOMAS HAsTWELL

There is an interesting story In
the New Testament known as the
Parable Of the Talents. According
to this story the man who develop
ed his talents and made them pro-
Aduce was blessed with larger re-
yards while them an who buried his
talents was deprived Of any reward.
The third was rewarded as he had
increased and developed his talent.
II the parable teaches anything it
teaches the responsibility of a man
for whatever talent he possesses.
This responsibility carries with 1t
the necessity Of developing and In
creasing his talent or talents what
even they may be. 1t tells us that
one talent developed will bring to
us other opportunities and other
talents and it also tells us that one
talent neglected will see deprived
Of even the one talent. How true.
How many times have we seen this
borne out. There are about us on
all sides hundreds of examples at
testing the truth of this parable.
The more worthwhile the talent
and the more dilligent the effort
the greater the reward. The indi-
vidual who fritters away his life
with little petty things of no conse-
quence will never realize the re-
ward that comes to the man who
chooses something worth while and
puts his life and soul into it. IF
we expect large rewards we must
think big things and plan big things
and work for big things.

The American Federation Of
Labor today had joined the
United States Chamber Of Com
merce in predicting a sharp up
turn in business this autumn.
Going even further than the
Commerce Chambers report Of a
week ago, the A. F. Of L., in its
monthly business survey, pre-
dicted business gains by next fall
would lift production higher
than at any time since 1929"
Calling attention to a number
of factors contributing to this
outlook, the report said:
much Of the heavy debt
burden which oppressed bust.
ness in 1882 has been liqui.
dated. LOng-term debts of in
dustrial firms and nOn-farm
real estate mortgages have
been reduced so per cent since
their peak. Farm mortgages
are down I'll per cent, family
debts to small loan agencies are
down 43 per cent"
