 Brundage Helps Japan
 The Japanese cause was strength ened by election of Brundage, who is known to favor holding the l03C games in Tokyo. Brundage's name was placed in nomination by Will lam May Garland of Los Angeles second American member of the ! Q. c. Garland, who has pledged himself to Japan, will also cast tho other American vote.
 Several American officials hert are candidates for SherrillS post Among them are dlBtavus T. Kirby of New York, treasurer Of the A c. C.; and former A. A. U. Presi- dent Murray Hubert.
 The committee adjourned today without acting upon bids from Jap- m and Finland for the 1040 olym. pie games. A decision Is expected tomorrow afternoon.
 Jahncke officially was dropped from the committee because he failed to attend two meetings with" out proper reasons. It was said in some quarters he was dismissed be- cause he participated in the boycott against American participation Tn the Berlin games.
 William May Garland, of Los Angeles, American member of the international group. catcgorically denied that this was the case. Asked why Jahncke's name was not included in the olympic guide book published more than month ago, Garland said; "T guess some one just forgot to mention his name.'
 German Explains
 But Doctor Theodore Lewald, German member Of the committee, said:
 T expected Jahncke would be dropped from the committee. Any way, did not include in the guide book the name Of one who shame fully offended us"
 Garland claimed elimination of Jahncke was a routine affair.
 T took no part in 1t, neither pro nor con-" Garland said. T could not very well have done so. When the vote was taken, I excused my self from voting. Otherwise, the vote was unanimous"
 Jahnckes place on the committee was taken by Avery Brundage, president of the A. A. U. and head of the American Olympic commit tee.
 The I. o, c. did not act on a site for the I040 games. England, Fin land and Japan are the outstanding competitors for the honor. A vote is expected to be cast at tomorrow's meeting. The two nations which have the most votcS--if more than two receive votcs-wil become the "finalists' and a second ballot will be cast on those nations.

The various phases or appearances
OF the moon to us are due to the

earth and moon, notes a writer In the
Detroit News. The moon Is a sphere,
all of whose surface Is believed to be
lifeless and cold, though 1t Is always
the same face or side that Is turned
toward the earth. AS In the case of
the earth, the sun lights only one-half
Of 1t, while the other half remains in
darkness. In the phase known as new
moon, the bright face of the moon Is
turned away from US and the moon Is
invisible. Then In few days we see
a small part of the bright surface,
which owing to our position appears
as a slender crescent AS the moon
moves along In Its orbit around the
earth. this crescent increases to a
half moon and thence through the glib
bous stage to full moon, after which
1t begins to wane, passing through the
corresponding stages again. When the
moon Is between the earth and the sun
we have the new moon and phases up
to half moon; when the earth Is be-
tween the sun and the moon we get
the phases between half moon and full
moon.

The history Of butter Is interesting.
1t Is mentioned In the earliest records
Of Asiatlc peoples, and has since been
made and used by man wherever milk
producing animals we're available.
There are records OF butter used as
food nearly 1000 years ago. It was
also esteemed as ointment and for
the treatment of wounds. In the Bible
there are nine references to butter.
Honey and butter were brought to
David when he was hungry and weary,
and Job In his misery longed for his
better days when butter was plentiful.
In the Proverbs Is the definite state
ment that "the churning Of milk bring
eth forth butter"
In early times In this country, farm
ers made butter merely for their own
use. Then, as herds increased, they
had surplus for SALE and finally the
creamery was developed. where the
farmers In neighborhood could have
the butter made In central place,
and sold from there. 1t Is believed
that the first creamery in this coun-
try was built In Orange county, N. T.,

OIL WHICH PLATES is
EXPLAINED BY CHEMISTS

PONCA CITY, Okla, June 8.-Oil
that "marries' metal and combines with
the wearing surfaces of automobile
shafts and bearings to form what is
virtually an oil-plated protective layer
was explained today by chemists of the
Continental Oil Company who reported
the scientific details of the develop
ment at recent meetings of the Ameri-
can Petroleum Institute and American
Chemical Society.
The plating" of the metal is said to
be accomplished by adding to mid-con-
tinent mineral oil new chemical with
SO strong an attraction for metal that
minute layers Of THE lubricant are lock-
ed tightly to the surface of the moving
parts, forming what is virtually an
amalgam or plating on the metal. The
resistance Of this plating to being wiped
out" is so great that the film con-
tinues to lubricate under greater heat
and stress conditions than were for
merly possible, and cannot be entirely
removed by any process short of actual
grinding.
The scientific principles behind the
formation of the film involve the molec-
ular structure of lubricants and grew
out of the discovery that certain chem

Numerous Lost Rivers in
Various Parts of World

1t hardly seems possible to lose a
stream of water large enough to be
called a river. However. there are
many so-called "lost rivers" In the
world, says Pathfinder Magazine. In

slavIa has one, and so do Idaho and
Oregon. Kentucky has 4 Lost creek
and West Virginia Its Lost river. In
Hardy county. West Virginia, there IS
q river which sinks under 4 mountain
and reappears two miles away as
large spring. the overflow from which
forms the Cacapon river. The
river disappears under rock.
The water forms whIrlpools as II sinks
under the rocks and anything thrown
into the water there soon disappears
from sight.
These ''lost rivers" are usually found
In limestone regions. The seepage Of
water through the porous rock causes
small fissures to be formed. AS time
goes on, these assures Increase In
size until in some cases they may be
large enough to swallow up a"slzdbie
river. The river may run underground
for miles and then reappear AS huge

Mexico's Calendar Stone
Carved by Aztec Indians

Among the sights Of Mexico City
IL the famous Calendar stone 1t was
cut from volcanic rock by Aztec In
dians, and the work was done more
than four centuries ago, during the
reign OF the Aztec ruler. Montezuma
II, says writer In the Detroit News.
Aztec tribes were In control OF Mex
leo when 1t was invaded by the Span
iards. The present name OF the coun-
try Is believed to have come from an
old Aztec war-god who was called
"Mexitle" or "Mexitli" 1t Is easy to
see how his name could have been
changed to Mexico"
The Calendar stone Is on view In
a museum In Mexico City. On 1t Is
carved great circular figure In the
shape Of the sun; and the width OF
the figure Is IL feet.
The stone Is composed OF volcanic
rock. and weighs 20 tons as 1t exists
today. The rock appears to. have been
obtained from quarry several miles
hLcM uANAlAU SlAy uhh ~ 40
that before the carving was done, the
rough block weighed from 40 to 50
tons.
1t may be that the block was cut
down before 1t was moved from the
quarry; but. In any case. 1t was too
heavy for people to lift. There were
no oxen or other large beasts Of bur-
den In Mexico before the white men
came, so 1t must have been moved
with the help Of rollers.
At the center OF the Calendar stone
Is a picture or symbol OF the sun god
and with the rest OF the carving, It
tells the Aztec story Of "the worlds
history"
The Aztecs declared that four suns
had existed before the one they saw
In the sky. The first sun was sup
posed to have been destroyed by q
jaguar, the second by whlrlwind, the
third by rain of FIRE, and the fourth
by a food. 1t was believed that the
fifth sun would be destroyed by an
earthquake.
