was repeatedly struck by a fall

There was no apparent reason
for the bricks falling from be-

no wind at the time or any
outstanding jar to the building.
The structure has stood on the

Tiny Flowers
And Insects
Cast In Gold

AUCKLAND, New Zealand,
(A.P.)-A retired Auckland den
list, c. E. Clarke, says he has
been reproducing flowers and
insects in gold for Is years.
Clarke has a secret trick in
working with gold, silver, and
aluminium. He works on the
principle of gold inlay modelling
In dentistry.
First, he says, he places the
flower or insect in a mould of
plaster of paris and marble dust
encased in steel cylinder. Then
he removes the flower, but keeps
hemould intact. How he does
this through a hole the size of
Z pin head is his big secret.
With the flower removed,
Clarke comes to his second stage
Of moulding. He puts some gold
n the depression at the top of
the mould, melts it with a blow
torch. Then he presses a wet
asbestos pad on the molten gold.
This creates steam, and its
pressure forces the gold through
/ tiny hole into the mould.

NEGRO VOTE IS
IMPORTANT IN
ELECTION

LITTLE ROCK Ark. Aug Is
(ANP)-The Negro vote in the
state of Arkansas was vital in
various elections throughout the
state last week. It'll helped elect
the new governor; it elected sew
eral sheriffs, and in the town of
Morrilton, the whites thought
enough Of the Negro vote to keep
the Negroes from voting.
The election of McMath for
governor was definitely decided
by the colored vote. Counties
heavily populated by Negroes
gave the newly elected governor
a margin of more than 1920
while his margin of victory was
slightly over 1000. If a few of
the colored votes had switched to
Holt, McMath could not have
won.
In a typical county, jefferson,
Pine Bluff reports that Garland
Brewster was reelected by a
wide margin. This campaign was
marked by frantic efforts of his
opponents to grab the colored
vote. Negroes, however, recogniz-
ed Brewster's fair treatment to-
ward them during his past term,
and voted for him to serve again.
In Morrilton, the story was diff
ferent, according to Frank W.
