We can not get away from

we choose, and hang on. The pull
of the one is always up; the pull
of the other is always down.
The constant desire of the hui
man family as 4 whole, is to rise.
Some like to dip down in certain
respects; and some in most re-
spects if not in all respects. But
the general urge is upward. 1t is

5000 FORD DEALERS TO MEET

September as Result of Contest

Approximately 5000 Ford deal
ers' parts and service men will visit
Atlantic City sometime in Septem-
Der as a reward for best records of
performance during a contest be-
ing held throughout the country.
The contest began July 1 and will
close August 81. In addition to
those who will go to Atlantic City,
several hundred others, employed
west of the Mississippi River will
go to the San Diego Fair as re-
suit of the same contest. The win
ners will be selected from among
$4,000 employees of Ford dealers in
the nited States. Those who make
excellent service records, but whose
point totals are not sufficient to win
trips will be given other prizes. All
expenses for travelling and for two
day programs at both the western
city and the eastern city will be
provided. Ennis & Deakyne of
Smyrna, who have made a good
record in sales and service, will be
represented at the gathering Wis

through the newly opened Ford
Exhibit on Steel Pier and those
who go to San Diego will see the

PRESSURE ON MINERALS

Cambridge. Mass.-The searching
eye of science will be able to tel
about conditions approximately &c
miles below the earth's surface with
the aid of apparatus newly devel
oped at Harvard university.
Use of the apparatus for the first
time is announced by the staff OF
the Gordon Mckay and Dunbar
physics laboratories.
The equipment may reveal hith.

be reached by digging. 1t also is

Permitting the examination of
minerals under pressure Of 10000
atmospheres (about IS tons per
square inch), combined with tenn
peratures as high as 500 degrees
centigrade, the apparatus was de-
vised by Drs. Francis Birch and
r. r. Law, research associates In
geophysics.
Heretofore scientists have been
able to investigate only the effects
on minerals of high temperature
alone. or of high pressure alone,
whereas joint study will now be
possible.
Two methods of obtaining the
combination of high temperature
and pressure have been used. The
first employs steel pressure cham

diameter bored along its axis. into
this hole is inserted the specimen,

piston capable of compressing nj
trogen gas to a pressure of 10000
atmospheres. Then the compress
sion chamber is placed In an elec-
trio furnace and heated as high as
500 centigrade.
The second method makes it pos
sible to attain temperatures as
high as 1000 centigrade. In this
apparatus the pressure range is
at present limited to 5000 at
mospheres. Heat is applied elec-
trically within the pressure cham
ber, and the other walls of the
chamber are cooled.

BOY SCOUTS TO

Caesar ROdney's Ride To Be
Featured at National JAM
bOree in Capital
DELAWARE SCOUTS TO GO

The drama of Caesar Rodney's
ride, stirring episode of Americas
struggle for independence known
to every Delaware boy and girl,
will be brought home to 10000
boys from all over the world. 1t
will be depicted as one of the eight
scenes of a display "The Beginn-
ings of America" which will be one
of the many features of the ma
tional Jamboree to be held in Wash
ington August 81 to 30 in observ-
ance of scouting's twenty-fifth an
niversary in the United States.
Scouts of the Delaware Area will
participate in the presentations of
this scene The intimate associa-
ton of Region Three Delaware,
Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia
and the District Of Columbia
with this country's early history
and the designation of this region
as host to the visiting scouts makes
the participation of the Delaware
scouts in this display particularly
appropriate. 1t will be staged in
the Ellipse, Thursday, August %,
at p. m. The eight episodes are
as follows: America began in Re-
gion Three-Virginia scouts depict
ing jamestown settlement; liberty
began in Region Whining
ton Area scouts depicting Caesar
Rodney incident; the flag began in
Region Three-Philadelp scouts
depicting the Betsy Ross incident;

gion Three Baltimore scouts de-
picting Fort McHenry incident;

Three-York scouts with ox-team
and Conestoga wagon depicting
start of Lewis and Clark expedi-
ton; the constitution began in Re-
gion Three-4Delaware- Mont
(PaD scouts depicting Constitu-
tionaI Assembly; scouting began in
Region Three-W Washington scouts
depicting arrival of scouting in
America. With the enthusiastic
endorsement given the Jamboree
by Governor C. Douglass Buck and
his hope that large contingent
from Delaware would attend and
the news from national headquart-
ers that the deadline has been NOV
ed up to July 81 for registrations
and that any scout, regardless OF
rank or service, approved by the
Jamboree committee may go, the
quota for this erea moved appreci-
ably nearer attainment. Associate
Scout Executive Clarence F. Urffer
announced last week that three
scouts had registered for the JAM
boree. They are William G. Sim
ons, Troop No. SIS, Newark; Walter
r. Robinson, Jr-, Troop No. 40
Westminster Presbyterian Church;
John ]. Monaghan, Troop No. 5
st. Elizabeth's r. c. Church. Mr.
Urffer said these registrations now
bring the total up to So. He de-
clared that the Governors recent
message had done much to stir en-
thusiasm among scouts in this erea
and would result in more registra-
tions being received at headquart-
ers within the next few days. Lam
