Earth s Core
OF Metal.
Is Belief

For more than 80 years the sci.
entists Of the Geophysical Labora.
tory Of Carnegie Institution of
Washington have been studying
the properties of rocks and min.
erals and how they were formed in
nature. In course of their investi
cations much has been learned
about the structure of the earth
itself. Recently Dr. LeaSon H.
Adams acting director of the lab
oratory, presented the latest views
which are held respecting the ma
ture and composition of the earth's
interior.
According to DR.. Adams the evi.
dence obtained through study of
earthquake waves and that gath
cred by biologists supports the
view that a croSs-section of the
earth would show three principal
regions or zones; a core or central
region, about half the diameter of
the earth; a crust or superficial
layer. from 25 to 80 miles thick,
and an intermediate zone of 1000
miles.
AS to the central core, DR.. Adams
SAID that it is a region of ex-
tremely high density, to account
for which two causes have been ad.
vanced; the squeezing of ordinary
rock into much smaller volume
under the enormous pressure of
superintendent material, and the
presence of some very heavy sub.
stanc- such as a metal.
DR.. Adams showed that it is i'm.
possible to explain the high density
Of the earth at its center by com.
preston alone and that the only
reasonable alternative so far ad-
Vanced is the view that an intrinsi.
cally heavy substance lies at and
| around the center.

Sorry" he mumbled APOLOGIZE
cally. you take my place" he
invited Blaustein over. His hand
trembled as he handed his pencil
to the producer.
Guess l don't get enough
sleep. 1 need a drink" He JaSSed
into the bar without glancing
right or left. Kerrigan took onis
chair.
I'll play, if nobody minds" he
asked smilinGly. How much?"
Ten cents"
ANY side bets?" He looked
quizzically at Blaustein, who had
the reputation of being one of the
heaviest gamblers in a community
that took big chances on the
dropping of a hat.
Fifty dollars" Blaustein an
swered. He relaxed comfortably,
as one who at last finds himself
gratefully in his right element.
The room had become COM
pletely oblivious to the girl, who
had gone to the piano and was
sitting motionless. Her sprightly
gayety seemed to have diSap-
peared as if it had been a mask.
She raised her hands, that had
been folded in her lap, hesitating
before placing them on the keys.
I'm rain or shine,
Oh, love of mine,
Please believe me
I'll always be yours.SS-
She sang the four verses and
the sad little refrain in a low,
husky voice, softly closing the
piano after herself before she
slipped from the room.
VERY, very NICE" murmured
Kerrigan, too engrossed in stack
ing his winnings to notice the girl
was no longer there to hear him.
The horizontal line of a vermil-
ion sun had drawn itself across
the misty gray mountains before
a unanimous decision could be
reached to end the game.
Hey, you guys" time to go
home" BlauStein shouted. There
was no response. He stretched
himself slowly and walked into
the bar where Mike was trying to
Stifle yawn.
where on earth are they?"
Blaustein asked irritably.
II imagine in Yuma, by this
time, sir" Mixes chronic sadness
lifted for the fraction of an in
slant. 1.-THE young lady said for
me to tell you, she knows now she
always wanted to be the first Mrs.
Toni Webster, instead of an &C
tress, and that you were just a
Good Little Cupid after all, sir"
he finished deferentially.
I'll be darned" said Blaustein.
Anyway, let's have drink" An
abashed look of relief slowly over
spread his tired features, turning
gradually into an aura of radiant
satisfaction as he thoughtfuIly
slipped the contents of his glass.
He wasn't cheap, he was just a
Good LitSe Cupid, he chuckled to
himself. Yes, sir, that was exactly
what he had been all his life.
