Most grown-ups will say, why

And it's sort of hard TO explain that
you just want to see what the result
will be, both on the hen or the rabbit
and on their offspring.
Even just to write about 1t here
may sound silly enough, but did you
know that many of the great inven-

cause somebody wanted to see what
would happen?

Paint Transforms Glass Jars
Into Attractive Flower Vases

you can enamel the outside. too, If you
prefer. I transferred the traced de-
sign to the jars with carbon paper.
Vase No. was once a mayonnaise
jar. I wanted blue vase, so enam-
eled 1t a deep shade using four hour
glossy enamel. used bright red for
the flower and spots and soft green
for the leaves, with darker green veins
I carried the blue Of the background
down into the mouth Of the jar about
an inch to give it finish. Sometimes
use a darker or lighter shade than
the background for this and sometimes
q contrasting color.
ON THE grocer's shelves you will
find jars of all shapes and sizes to
make any sort Of vase you want, but
there are a few points 10 remember
when you promote" them to the nv-
ing room as vases via the enamel
route:
l. Be sure your enameled back
ground is absolutely dry before you
try to transfer the design, and watch
that you don't smudge it with carbon
paper.
2. When you mix a color, be sure
you mix all you'll need for that par
ticular jar. It's almost impossible to
get it quite the same shade again.
3. Do all the parts that are the sam"
color at one time while you have ii
on the brush. 1t saves both time and
enamel.
4. Where the parts of the design are
close together. let one part dry before
doing the one beside it. Then, if the
enamel spreads a little. it won't run
together and spoil your work.
5. Have your enamel thick enough
not to run, but not so thick it will
show brush marks. You can thin j:
with turpentire. If it's too thin, leave
the cover off for a short time and the
air will thicken it. Keep your cans
tightly closed when not in use.
g. Always clean your brushes thor
oughly before using a different color
and when you finish the job. Use tur-
pentine for this.
T. Oil colors, mixed with white
enamel, can be washed in soap fakes
and warm water without damaging
them.

TUCK agreed to the proposal. But
before he left to investigate the
car, Bill posted him as a guard TO
watch Betty's room, while he moved
down the hall toward his Uncle Joers
room. He was curious to see what
the effect of last nights events had
been on his uncle.
He rounded the corner OF the hall
warily. and was surprised to see the
door of his uncle's room open. Then
he heard Capt. Gregg's rasping voice,
and he approached the door quietly.

Diamonds Are Precious as Ever
Because They Battle Scientist
Bv Horace Mitchell.

IF DIAMONDS could be made by
the local druggist or baked IN big
blast furnaces, they would be less
precious to us than they now are,
in spite of their glittering rainbow
flashing.
Like the ancients, whose passion II
was to make gold from baser metals,
modern scientists, who have been able
to make almost everything conceivable
artifcially, from silk to peppermint,
have striven to make diamonds as
we'll.
But after years Of experiment and
study natures recipe for diamonds is
still as much of secret as ever.
Excepting for some small crystals,
the search has been fruitleSs.
Indeed, there are probably plenty
of diamonds in the world and no need
for artificial ones, but the best dia-
mond fields are owned by a very
few, who have no intention of pro-
ducing so many gems that they be-
come cheap. And so long as the
tiny crystals obtained by melting pure
iron with sugar charcoal in an elec-
trio furnace and then plunging the
melted mass into cold water are not
improved upon. there is little like
lihood that diamonds will be sold
in 1o-cent stores.
Although their history is still SCI
entific mystery, We know that dia-
monds are q form of carbon. If you
hold a diamond ring in a fire for q
few minutes you will have little mass
Of melted gold left, but not sign Of
