LANSING, Sept. Oct. 3 -
Sportsmen buying their 1947
Michigan hunting licenses should
insist on getting both parts OF
the game law digest, for it costs
no more to get it all, the con-
servation department says.
The digest proper, containing
the substance of basic laws on
hunting, is an eight-page folder.
The digest supplement, con-
tanning this years season dates
and bag limits, is a four page
folder. Equipped with both fold
ers, the hunter has all the facts
he needs to know about the law;
failure to pick up either will not
excuse ignorance of any special
provisions.

stronger in every department
than the Dodgers"
"The Dodgers will win.
The Yanks aren't hitting
enough home runs"
"The Yanks. The Dodgers
have been a DR.. Jekyll and
Mr.. Hyde team all season."
"The Dodgers are a cinch
to win. They are a young,
hustling ball club and hungry
for the championship. The
Yanks are cocky and over
confident, due to the pres
ence of DeMaggio and others
to whom a World Series is
old stuff"
"The Yanks. They've got
too much artillery for the
Dodgers"

wends his way homeward after
battling the crowds at the pari-

light but fast, will run about
ITS pounds to the man.
Besides the Federation games,
several out-of-town trips will be
made to nearby cities for con-

job at center, and Percy J~-

tention for many colleges.
From near and far come jovial
gents, men of good will, sturdy
fellows with the aroma of clean,
rugged, outdoor sport on them.
They come to see Junior and
from Junior they pass to papa
and before it's completed mama
is up to her ears in the whole
thing. A year or two before it
was a hard and practically i'm
possible job forcing Junior to
wash his ears. Now the colleges
are sending emissaries to Junior,
inviting him to go with them
to seek his education, college
education, that is.
Therefore, the millions who
do not have football talent in
the home are missing, or escap-
ing, a fixed episode in the rich
tapestry of American sport, the
year-long search for grid re-
Icruits.
For the edification of the
many, this brief introduction to
Ia serious subject. The scramble
for young players to fill the col
lege varsities has fallen into a
pattern, briefly:
The big schools have per-
fected the search and seizure
business. The small schools
hunt and CLEAN as best they can.
The little ones don't have a
chance"

try them.
A g1Ess rod may be used to
make these experiments, for glass
is a good EXETER, as we call any
thing electrified by rubbing. To
excite Or electrify the rod, rub it
briskly with a piece of dry silk.
Or we can take a stick of sealing
wax, which must be rubbed with
flannel. A third kind of EXETER is
a piece of vulcanite rubbed with
flannel. Vulcanite is hard rubber,
and fountain pens are generally
made OF it. So if we can get an
old fountain pen, it will do very
well.
We take Jul glass rod, sealing
wax, or fountain pen, and excite
it. Then We hold it near some
tiny scraps of paper and it will
pick them up, as seen in picture
l.
Be careful that everything is
quite dry. The articles must be
warmed before a fire to make
sure they are dry. All experiments
with this kind Of electricity will
fail unless everything is warm
and dry. including the weather.
Sometimes the rod will pick up
the paper, and afterward will not
attract the same piece. This is
because the little bit of paper has
received a charge CT electricity
from the rod, and when two cleo
trified bodies come together they
repel one another if both are cleo
trified with the same sort of cleo
1ricity. If the bodies are charged
with opposite kinds Of electricity,
they will attract one another.
These two sorts of electricity
are called positive and negative.
Glass rubbed with silk gives posi-
tive electricity, and sealing wax
or vulcanite rubbed with flannel
gives. negative electricity.
Another experiment is to make
a tiny ball of pith out of the cen
ter of an elder-berry stick. Fix
the ball to a thread of silk, and
the silk to some object from which

vide a cork stopper. Then put a
piece of copper wire through the
cork. Bend n end-the one to
go inside the bottle-into a small
hook. The ither end has to be
bent round like a ring, and then
must be bent down at a right
angle. We shall have a piece like
picture 2.
Now make two pith-balls and
hang each on a piece of cotton,
both pieces being the same length.
Tie the two ends to the hook in
the wire, and put them into. the
bottle and fix in the cork, as
shown in picture 8.
If you excite the rod and touch
the top OF the wire with it, the
pith-balls will become excited;
and, as both will be charged with
the same sort of electricity, they
will stand out apart from each
other. If you bring anything that
is electrified against the copper
wire, you will see the pith-ba1ls
move.
