as The Conquering Lion of Judah.
There has been perhaps no other
phrase or title that impressed war

the words "Conquering Lion as

Noted Explorer Accepts Mission
OF Carrying Letters To Old Santa

discussing the possibility of find

Geographers have already as
certained that Santa Claus cannot
live directly at the North Pole be-
cause the pole itself is located on
a field of ice floating on the ocean
Arctic explorers, Admiral Perry
among them, have located a vast
eXpanse of land, which has as its
center the Pole of Inaccessability
SO named by geographers, about
300 miles from the true North Pole
This land seems to be about the
size of the United States but con-
sistent attempts to explore it have
failed.
Has Sighted Land
Explorers have reported that in
approaching this land mass it
seemed to disappear 1t is be-
lieved possible that, if this is Santa
Claus land, 1t became invisible to
them because they did not believe
in the Christmas spirit as person.

One reason for the selection of
Kleinschmidt to head the expedi-
tion is his love for children and
his deep faith in Santa Claus. He
has sighted this land on two prev
ious trips into the north while fly

A telegram from one man, who
claims to have worked for Santa
many years ago said, your mo-

ELECTRICITY GONE ASTRAY
aSPOILS WATER IN PIPES

Stray electricity from the house
wiring system or some other source
has been found to discolor and to
change the taste of water delivered
to the consumer, says Popular Me-
chanicS Magazine. Frequently, such
condition will prevail in the house
piping, yet be absent in the water
in the street main"
An investigation by a water COM
pany tends to show that alternat-
ing current may change the quality
of water. It has been established
that direct current disintegrates
water mains.
The hayward current arises from
"promiscuous grounding" The pri-
mary function of the ground wire
is safety. It is an avenue of escape
for current diverted from its nor
NAL course by leak or defect in
insulation. The simplest ground is
the water pipe.
When the current, instead of dis
sipating itself harmlessly in the
earth, continues its activity, the
water and the pipe containing it
are damaged. The stray current
sometimes makes water blue, green
or red and frequently creates dis
agreeable odors and metallic taste
suggestive of tin, lead or rust.

Our atmosphere, estimated to be
about 500 miles deep, is made up Of
many elements. One Of these
ozone, "a form of oxygen) has at
tracted a lot of attention. If all this
element were collected and COM
pressed together, according to the
Smithsonian institution, it would
make layer around the earth but
one eighth inch thick. Yet, it is
very important to life. This ozone
belt extending some 40 miles above
the earth filters the violet rays of
the sun and allows only those nee
essary to life to pass the short
ones. Most Of the long rays (de-
structive to life) are retained out
side this belt. Some do penetrate,
but their damage is quickly repair
ed by the short enthusiastically
finder Magazine.

forced to line up behind the Presi-

believed in it fully but for two 9TH

first, they still entertained some
fear that If they broke with the

The famous Hoosac tunnel in
western Massachusetts, stands as a
monument to the never-say-die
spirit. The bore through the Hoosac
mountain is five miles long. It was
first started in 1851, but work was
abandoned after a time. Later a
second start was made and this,
too, ended in failure. Finally 1t was
completed in 1875. The tunnel cost
