ADEQUATE School Lunch

To maintain a good food balance,
the noon school lunch should include
milk. fruit or tomato juice; one pro-
TEN food like eggs, meat, fish or
cheese; bread and butter, and one
vegetable, preferably raw. The
vegetable may be used as a sand
witch filling, or it may be celery
stalks, carrot or turnip sticks with
salt. Whole wheat bread should be
used at least half of the week for
these lunches. Cookies or cup cakes
are preferable to sliced cake be-
cause they carry much better. II
the teacher serves one hot dish at
noon, the children should know the
menu q week in advance so the
mother will know just what to send
from home to complete the lunch.

Lusty Klondike Is StiIled

The lusty Klondike, where men
killed each other for gold and gam
bled away their fortunes on green
topped tables in smoky saloons, is
all but buried today beneath the
gray muds deposited by 40 years of
floods. DR.. Lowell r. Laudon, pro-
fessor of geology at the University
of Tulsa (Oklahoma), painted that
picture in describing his experiences
in hiking trip from Skagway over
Chilkoot pass to Lake Bennett at
the headwaters of the Yukon river
last year. A lone trapper lives in the
ghost area today. Sodden gray piles
of lumber, almost completely over
grown with the dense Alaskan vege-
tation, mark former camp sites. Be-
meath tumbled roofs lie wreckage of
crudely made furniture, harnesses,
packs, wagon wheels, sleds, oars,
and other gear discarded after the
collapse of the golden bubble.

RESTORATION BEGUN in OLD
SENATE CHAMBER

The Program initiated by Cover
nor Herbert r. O'Conor for the re-
storation of the historical treasures
of the State House at Annapolis has
gotten underway in the Old Senate
Chamber, work on which was begun
yesterday. The work is being done
under the direction of the Maryland
Historical Society, which was en-
powered by the Legislature, under
the previous Administration, to
supervise the restoration.
The first phase, now underway,
is the replacement of the present
floor by a chit and miss" pattern
pine floor, which research showed
was the type of floor in the Cham
Der during the Colonial days. AS
rapidly as possible, following the
completion of this work, necessary
painting and re-decorating to restore
the old Colonial charm of the room
will be done, after which the final
touches will be added in the way Of
replicas of the original furniture.
When all of this is completed, the
room will be a true duplicate of
the old Chamber in which the early
Continental Congress assembled, and
in which General Washington re-
signed his commission.

POLITICAL SPECULATION

Mr.. Roosevelt is far and away
the most popular of all possible
presidential candidates-but there is
a definite majority opposed to third
term. That is the rather con-
fusing picture presented by the last
Fortune poll.
Over IS per cent of Democrats
picked the President, while runner
up Garner got Sc per cent. On the
Republican side, Dewy led with 14.9
per cent, as against 5.S per cent
for Taft in second place. Fifty-four
per cent of those queried voted
Democratic.
Less than IL per cent said that
Roosevelt's reelection was vital,
while almost 81 per cent thought
it the worst thing that could hap
pen to the country. On the third-term
question, says Fortune, the major
ity against is about 8 per cent.

Stamp Will Honor Ether
Anesthesia Discoverel

JEFFERSON, GA.-No longer
should there be any doubt of the
debt that man owes DR.. Crawford
w. Long.
DR.. Long, young physician prac-
ticing on an American frontier, dis
covered the use of sulfuric ether
as an anesthesia in surgery. This
discovery made modern operating
table miracles possible.
The claim of being the discoverer
Of ether anesthesia has been made
for and by others, but the United
States post Office has settled that
argument. 1t will issue a new two.
cent stamp honoring DR.. Long.
It was here that DR.. Long first
used ether in surgery The first
operation was performed March 80,
1912, when DR.. Long removed tu-
NOR from the neck of James M.
Venable.
Postal authorities studied the
claims for others as discoveries Of
ether anesthesia-and found that the
credit belongs to DR.. Long alone.

Polarized Light Used
In Engineering Tests

Scientists are using shadows and
rainbows to prevent train wrecks,
floods and other disasters-by the
use of polarized light to analyze
strains on bridges, dams and other
structures, according to Prof. M. S.
Ketchum of the Case School of APP
piled Sciences, Cleveland, Ohio.
"Until rainbow tests were applied
in testing bridges" said Ketchum,
assistant professor of civil engineer
ing, "many engineers grossly over
estimated the strength of materials
needed in certain parts of the struc-
lures. They then were at loss ia
explain why their work gave way
occasionally with disastrous results, -
Ketchum explained that engineers
now make models of bridges of eel
luloid or other plastics, place
weights on them, shine polarized
light through the semi-transparent
model and observe the distortions
manifested in the form of rainbow
shadows"
Lie PAAlClplC ulVO4NSO, AC SdAN,
sis that polarized light, which is
caused by the passage of ordinary
light through polaroid crystals vi
brates in one plane only.
eff this polarized light now Is
passed through glass, gelatin or plas-
tics, it will cast a shadow similar
to a rainbow. But when strain is
put on the material, the shadow is
distorted and the greatest distortion
occurs when the strain is greatest.
Thus it is very easy to see where a
break would occur and where more
strength is required"
Ketchum tests models of machip-
cry, dams and other structures.
The models of dams are made of
gelatin-sometimes as much as Is
pounds of the material being melted
to make one model dam.

Automatic Radio Signals
To Flash Flood Warning

Radio flashes soon will be the ulti-
mate in warnings of flash floods
along the far-fiung watershed of the
lower Colorado river.
The Public Works administration
has announced that system OF auto
matte radio signaling devices would
be installed to warn headquarters OF
the Lower Colorado River authority
in Austin, Texas, of sudden changes
in the rivers stages.
The radio signals will supplement
a system of 10 gauges continuously
recording fluctuations in the foot-sec-
ond flow of the treacherous Colorado.
The warning system has been
worked out to protect the interests
of landholders in the rivers water
shed and the facilities of the giant
flood reduction and power produc-
ton project following completion OF
the $22, 1850, 900 PWA job next year.
The gauges already are in operation.
Five automatic radio broadcasters
will be installed They and the
gauges diiCdOy III use wall NC Viii
plemented by reports from "a other
rainfall gauges being established in
the river drainage area. Some OF
the rainfall gauges are as far as 300
miles from the nearest of the four
dams on the lower Colorado.
Because the lower Colorado is a
flash stream" sluggish one day
and a torrent the next, it is neces-
sary to watch indications of rise
and fall consistently to operate the
dams to obtain adequate flow. for
consistent power production, and at
the same time provide proper
storage space for flood waters.
Much of the experience now being
utilized in perfecting the flood warn
ings system was obtained by the riv-
er authority and PWA engineers dur
ing the disastrous. Colorado river
floods of late in the summer of 1888,
when the torrent first went out OF
control in far western Texas, and
several weeks later spent itself by
pouring into the Gulf of Mexico.

Minnesota, June 2, 8, 4, 5, Governor
Herbert r. O'Conor will be one of
the Nations Chief Executives sell
ected to discuss what Is considered
the most important single question
up for discussion, namely What
Shall We Do About Relief"
An entire session will be devoted
to this topic. The particular phase
given to Governor O'Conor to dis
cuss is what the present relief pro-
grams-Federal, State and Local
are, to appraise them from the
standpoint of their adequacy and
effectiveness, and to make any sug-
gestion for improvement to these
programs.
With Governor O'Conor in this
important discussion are Governor
Charles A. Sprigg, of Oregon, who
will discuss, Organization and Ad-
ministration of Relief" and Cover
nor E. D. Rivers, of Georgia, whose
topic will be "The Problems OF
Taxations and the Problems of Re-
lief. Governor George A. Wilson,
of Iowa, will preside.
The meeting of Governors is at the
invitation of Governor Harold E.
Stassen, of Minnesota, who will have
with him as co-hosts the Duluth

MOTORISTS REQUESTED TO DIM
LIGHTS WHEN PASSING

In preparation for the great in
crease of travel on the roads antici-
pated during vacation time, and in
view of the unfortunate sharp in
crease in traffic deaths throughout
the State and Country in the past
few months, Governor Herbert R
O'Conor's Maryland Traffic Safety
Commission has issued another ap-
peal to the motorists of the State
to "dim lights on approaching
other cars at night.
A similar campaign on dimming
during the winter produced such ex-
cellent results that number of
County Chairman of the Committee
suggested that this phase of safety
effort be brought to the attention OF
motorists again.
Governor O'Conor will meet with
the Executive Committee shortly to
outline definite and extensive safe
ty plans for summer, in an effort
to combat the increasing number OF
fatal accidents. Despite all the work
that has been done both locally and
nationally, the first four months OF
the year were the worst months in
traffic history, making it imperative
the extraordinary efforts be put
forth now to keep down the traffic
deaths.
