Strange Facts
Clobe-Circling Birds
Utilizing Waste Heat
A Powerful Fuel

Ornithologists and seamen have
good reasons to believe that most
albatrosses fly around the world
several times during the course of
their lives. Incidentally, these
great birds, which can be buffeted
for days by ocean gales, become
very seasick when standing on the
deck Of a moving ship.
In . new South Dakota -four mill,
the heat generated by friction in
the grinding machine is SO great
that the heated air it creates,
drawn of by a fan and washed, is
sufficient to heat the entire six
story building, except in very cold
weather.
A number of American lawyers
not only handle the legal affairs of
their clients, but are also request
ed to take charge of such personal
details as buying and furnishing
homes, advising on marriage part
ners, paying bills and even select
ing servants.
In most cupboard motorboat
races, the fuel used is a mixture
of alcohol, benzol and castor oil
because it is more powerful than
any highest gasoline.-Collier's.

elected, the mandate will be that
his prediction actions sufficiently
revealed his purpose to take a domi-
nant part in the reconstruction of the
world and that his election would in
dictate vote Of confidence in that
policy and popular command to
carry it further.
The effect, if not the purpose of
sending Mr.. Welles on this mission
when neither belligerent seems to
have requested it, or even especially
to welcome it, is the cleverest kind
of both personal and political STRAIT
egg.
Mr.. Welles has colleague and

We would again bail out its bat

: INJURY To BACK
MAY END CAREER

Detroit, Oct. 9-AP-The con.
>,cluding game of the 1919 World
Series at Cincinnati Tuesday may
have also been the final major lea
que appearance OF Charles Leonard
Gehringer. Detroit Tiger second
baseman, who has been one OF the
games greatest inhelders for al
, most two decades.
Gehringer disclosed to a newspa-
perman friend before the game in
Cincinnati that he would probably
retire unless he was cured OF a
back ailment suffered while shovel
ing snow from the sidewalk n
front Of his Detroit home last
February,
Said Gehringer:
l. There were times this season
when | didn't think | could finish
a game. There were times when
didn't want TO get out OF bed.
I've taken so many heat treat
ments this year that feel like a
boiled oyster
Il can't field to my left because
. every time | stoop over for ball,
! there's terrible pain in my side.
Il may change my mind by next
spring but | don't think will.
When a ball player doesn't en-
JOY batting practice any more then
think it's time for him to quit and
] certainly don't enjoy IT,"
a Gehringer, who was 81 years old
last May II, made six hits in Is
: time at bat for a .314 percentage
in the World Series. He left 16
runners on base and hit into three
double plays. Charley drove In
single run and walked twice.
Gehringer became Detroit's sec
ond baseman in 1926 and played on
three pennant winning clubs.
Among honors to come his way
were the American League bat
ting championship and the circuits
most valuable player award.
II the Tigers lose Gehringer, as
now appears likely, they will en-
ter the 1871 pennant race without
a seasoned second baseman. The
no trade rule for a championship
.club is expected to remain in force.
according to informed baseball
sources. and this will prevent De-
troit from making a deal for a sec
ond baseman OF major league cali.
