—Change in theBylaw*.
NOEL D. LUDLOW SINGS
The most important bit of businessdone by the Woman's Club at itsmeeting on Monday afternoon at the
ongregational parish house was achange effected in » by-law relatingto the program committee. The pos-sible appropriation was increased twohundred dollars, a measure whichshould enable the committee to pro-vide even better programs than it hasfurnished in the past,
>irs. Ludlow reported that the billmaking compulsory a health certifi-cate for marriage has heen passed atTrenton.
The Kelly-Edge bill providing forncreascd pay for post office em-
ployees received the endorsement ofthe club.
Mrs. Perry reported the donationof seven bags of clothing for tho chil-dren of Athens and asked for more.
Noel D, Ludlow, accompanied byhis mother, Mrs. A. Dunham Ludlow,sang "The Blind Plowman," by Rob-ert Clarke; "Trade Winds," by Fred-erick Keel; and aa sn encore "TheRivals," an arrangement of a Welshfolk song by Lncy Broadwood. Mr,Ludlow's voice is a satisfying bari-tone, rich in quality, and his assured,artistry gave genuine pleasure to hishearers.
The speaker of the afternoon, Dr.Samuel W, Graflin, religious work di-rector of the West Side Y. M. C. A.,chose for his subject "Keeping Amer-ica Strong." Engaging personality, •Southern accent and a keen feelingfor dramatic effect combined to makeDr. Graflin on unusually divertinglecturer. His rapid file method oftelling stories kept his audience tip-pling with laughter and applause. Butbeneath his persiflage was a aound"stratum of illuminating Information;

must regain. By the effective figureof the "Five Doors," Dr. Graflin il-ustrated the ways by which he sceait, our country must safeguard its fu-ture. The small store door stands forhrift; the public school door for free
education; the home door for the rawstuff of character tho shop door forindustrial prosperity; the church doorfor those influences that shall makeus as a nation good as well as great.
In a vivid story of his own expori-nee as captain of a pineapple freight-er in the West Indies, Dr. Graflinbrought his ship into port and his talkto a close. The analogy to the trou-blous but triumphant voyage of theship of state needed little emphasis.Dr. Graflin was enthusiastically np-plauded.
The afternoon closed with a teaserved with its usual elflffciercy bythe hospitality committee.

ABSENCE EXCUSESFORGED BY BOYS
IN HIGH SCHOOLPractice Discovered and Stopped by Triolet Snecily
When Announcing Expulsion of Three ForHigh School Vandalism
CONFESSION FROM FOUR STUDENTS
Three Were in All Three Affairs of Thefl or Destructionof Food in Domestic Science DepL- Fourth Boy
in One Only and is Put on Probation.
The School Board of Weetfleld hasstill another chapter of insubordina-tion and defiance of school authoritywhich they feel satisfied they havecleaned up, after the discovery andpunishment of the boy students whowere found guilty of the vandalism inthe domestic science rooms of theHigh School—and that ia a systemof forgery of names of parents to ex-cuses for absence from school. Theunearthing of this practice was an-nounced by Robert S. Snevily, chair-mon of the School Board committeein charge of the investigation, whenhe addressed a meeting of the boysqn Thursday in the High Schoolauditorium and told of the discoveryand punishment of the authors of therecent outrages.
High School Principal Ncubauerand Supervising Principal Charles A.Philhower were present at that meet-ing. Mr. Snevily said this practice ofthe High School students In signingthe names of their parents to cardsexcusing the^boys for_ absence fromschool attendance or getting someone other than a parent to sign forthem, had been known, but that ithadn't fooled him nnd it wan going tostop—they couldn't get away withanything like that with him, Twoboys who had been under examinationby him were known by.him to hit'Ilefl- to-Mmr-He1 siifd h« Ultfn't Jm'iwhether these individuals were pres-ent or not, but he wanted them toknow, if they were present, that theyhadn't fooled him in the least.
Mr. Snevily talked for half an hourto the more than two hundred ormore students who had been orderedto meet him in the auditorium of theHigh School and hear the verdictagainst three of the students who hadbeen found guilty of tho vandalism inthe domestic science rooms on th(night of January 31 last. All threeconfessed their part in the job. Theywere Arthur De Mund, sophomore;
Ralph Dletz, a junior, and AddiaonSlocuni, a freshman. All three wereexpelled by unanimous vote of theSchool Board, which also assessedagainst the parents of the guilty stu-dents the coat of repairing the dam-age done, amounting, it is estimated,to several hundreds id dollars, Afourth boy, Edwin Grttllek, who hadconfessed his 'wrongdoing, was putunder probation.
The evidence gathered by theBoard will be turned over to the po-lice department of Westfleld in theevent that the1 Board should, in itsdiscretion, find it in the best interestsof the school and community to do so.The police, at this time, have no workto do in the case,
V.rdict Known Beforehand,The High School students who
were listening to Mr, Snevlly's wordBwere not a t all wrpttMd at the ver-dict rendered or the names of theboyR found guilty. Their names hadbeen known for fsvoral days and.thenames of three had been in possessionof "Tho Leader" for a weak, Thestudents were also aware of the pun-ishment that had been meted out, in-asmuch us the news got around twoduys before the official announce-ment, They were more Interested inMr. Snovlly's rcferencoj to.fjhe forg-
y ofcipaTerts' namw mlfi the -severelecture he guvo all those who listenedto him. He said the events of thelast few months had brought dligrnceon tho students, sorrow on the par-ents of the guilty ones and more thanenough notoriety on the town ofWcstneld and the infractions of dis-ciplining and defiance of school au-thority must cease nnd cense nt once.He appealed to the spirit of honorwhich he wan sure still existed andwus cherished by the great majorityof the student body of tho HighSchool and asked the co-operation of

STATEN ISLAND BRIDGEWOULD HELP WESTFIELD
Senator Ptariolt Supporting PaicoeBill, Which Will Mean Shorter
Route to Shore Retort*.
A meeting of th bridge and tun-nel committee of the Board of Free-holders of Union County and a com-mittee from the Chamber of Com-merce of Elizabeth conferred withtho officials of the engineer's officeof Elizabeth in the courthouse onMonday nnd the conference en-dorsed the Paseoe bill in the Legis-lature which will, if passed, assure avehicular bridge over Staten IslandSound from Elizabeth to Staten Is-land and asccond bridge from Tot-tenvillo, on the south sideof StiltonIsland, to Perth Amboy.
Sucii a bridge will furnish « routefrom Westncld to shore resorts whichwill lie considerably shorter than theroutes now available nnd also givefree access to Staten Island, which isu picturesque section, but which isdifficult to reuch now on account uf Ithe ruther indifferent ferry servicefrom the Jersey side.
.Secretary M. D. Griffith of theChamber of Commrrcu sponsored nresolution, which wns unanimouslypnsseil, that it was the nunsi' of thujconference that the I'nscoii hill he in- jdorsad, nnd thnt Asai'mhlymun i'»s-n>L> find Senator Pierfon bu compli-mented fur sponsoring thi. measure.Freeholder S, Hubert Drrcsclitr of(Iran ford, chairninn of the bridge findtunnel committee of the bnnnl, un-manned that the hill wil Iconie up foraction in the Awe.nhly next week. I
AHsemhlyman Pnscoe explained!nfforln had been directed 011 tlii'jbridge and tunnel proposition an a]county plan, lint that recent events jhad mnde it neu'.'SHary to cuimidfT it!mure of n State project, j
"It developed that tin- Port Au-jthnrity di'sircd to do wniPlMiu; inkeeping with th(! development of lhi>|Port of New York, which extends SOImiles from the Now Yor'i City Hall,and lt\kv» in Klizabcth nnd Perth Am-boy.
"MliIdU'Ai'X County decided it wouldhave the Pert Authority undertake
the construction of the Perth AmboyTottenvillc bridge. The Union County delegation at Trenton believes itadvisable that we undertake the construction of the Elizaheth-Staten Is-land bridge through the Port Author'ity, and to this end I introduced thehill.
"Under the Port Authority plan,the burden of the cost of thia bridgewill be lifted from the taxpayers.The Port Authority bus the power toissue bonds for the construction ofsuch u .ipuii. The $ 50,000 appropri-ated by the State will be repaid outof the revenue obtained from the op-eration of the bridge.
"I think if thia can be done it willbe « wonderful discovery for the lux-payer. We have mut with State Sen-ator Pierson on the bill, nnd he hnagreed to sponsor it in the Senate."

Permanent Peace.
ICTURE HORRORS OF WAR
The Men'e Class of the First Meth-odist Church has recently been dc-oting considerable attention to social
problems, peace and war, etc., and atlast Sunday's session, James H, Rileypresiding, the class adopted the fol-lowing declaration and resolutionsconcerning war and the attitudethereto which should be assumed bythe church.
"It has been apparent from the ex-pression of opinion in this class withrespect to what ehoulil be the atti-tude of the church toward peace andwar nnd the Leaguo of Nations, thatthere are wide, if not irreconcilabledifferences among as with respect tothe latter, but it seems to your com-mittee that this class, if not thehurch itself, should take no uncer-
tain attitude with respect to war andits horrors, its barbarity, inhumanityand injustice, especially toward weakand defenseless women and children,its mockery of God Himself and in-difference to Christian tenets andfaith. We hold that war seldom Ifever, save in a war purely for trueBtstatesmanship is that which resists tothe last extremity ,an moused popu-lar passion for war.
"We recognize that successful an-tagonism to war Is a matter of pains-taking and persistent education of themasses and We. commend1 all propermeans for the spread of knowledgein opposition to war and theifWgie;rall of endless evils which war leavesIn its Wake. We recognise the com-manding place, prestige and poweroccupied by our own beloved countryamong the nations of the earth andfeel hoi1 proper sphere today amongthe nations Is to goek.n compositionof differences, lessen, if possible, oldhatreds and international suspicionsand resist and discourage"8c'ifls1i*na-tlonalism, which is the prolific causeof international strife. In'short, weshould exert the historical Americanprincipal of settlement by arbitra-tion, mutual confidence and concilia-tion in the interest of peace and jus-tice, avoiding, however, and assump-tion of dictation because of our su.perior strength and power.

J. Jones.
Editor, The Leader:I WSB very much interested in the
letter of Edwits J. Jones, in lastweek's issue of the "Leader," underthe caption, 'School Lawlessness andIts Prevention."
He suggested what he woald likeID see in the way of school equip-ment, swimming pool, gymnasium,bowling alleys, billiard room andcommunity house equipment, that itwould furnish not only a club houseenvironment for the boys, but thegirl students as well, and these openevery afternoon and night.
Mr. Jones also made a statementof a fact "that practically the onlyplace the youth of oar town havefor a meeting place and social con-tact is on the street corners, in apool room or some cigar stares."
He stated "that if the schools hadbeen properly equipped, so the sur-plus energy might be directed intoright and helpful channels, there wasa ten to one chance that such thingsas happened in the High Schoolmight have escaped.
The writer also reviewed the stepssome of our churches has taken "forbringing the young people into prop-er social contact through bowlingalleys, etc."
While I heartily agree with Mr.Jones, that these facilities should bemade possible, I would make anamendment to the suggestion as toplace for these things and say thatit was because of the need of justsuch a civic center that the WestfieldYoung Men's Christian Associationwas organized.
Men representing the religious,civic, eudcational and business inter-ests of the town have been elected aboard of directors and it is their planin co-operation with our eltuens, whofeel that our young people are offirst Importance, to build here a"civic center" that will not dloneserve school boys, but also employedku'jii ','pung a n 4 older m«n (and

It is the purpose of the associationto erect a building which will containa gymnasium, swimming pool, pocketbilliard *oom, bowling alleys, parlor,reading room, dormitory and ampleaccommodation for special secularand religious education,
This building should serve largelyas the institutional pact of the-churches, and instead of each if ourchurches having to duplicate the ex-pensive equipment, cost of instruc-tion inr! supervision, and other m-.in-
'-tcitnnce (find th# cliaf'ch having thebest equipment drawing the boys andmen from other churches) here allwill be united in one association,under the management of representa-tives from their own churches underChristian and expert supervision,serving the boys of these churchesand many who never attend thechurch.
It would be wiser in every way toturn this work over to an organizetion which functions so largely inoccupying the leisure time of menand boya and where they will gladlycome to satisfy their personal tastesand worthy ambitions.
The Y. M. C. A. is not an experi-ment, but is rather the survivor ofmany experiments and the confidencein its ability to fill the needs hasbeen amply demonstrated by the factthat practically every progressivetown the size of Westfield, and manysmaller, in the State, have suchbuildings.

need,"This is a challenge to thoughtful
people everywhere. Fellowship issomething spiritual, and a book, moreofteiv than is recorded, touches thesecret springs of life and the 'out-wftvd sign' follows."
In urging a leap year remembranceot missionaries daring this month,therefore, Mrs. Herben is not appeal-ing only in behalf of the Methodistworkers abroad. Her pica is ratherthat books may go out in vast num-bers this week- to foreign fields, thatmissionaries everywhere and of allcommunions may have the inspirationthat comes through the realizationthat those at homo are thinking ofthem and are desirous of helpingthem.

it seems to me there is a widebreach between the Board of Educa-tion und the people of our town, no

property;Second, the desire to builu )t»i ex-
travagant Junior High School;Third, the question uf having- our
school board composed of • -a twomembers of our council, two membersfrom the Board of Education und theMayor.
Some thought that if the Mayorand council had anything to do withthe school board politics would be inplay
Where have politics beun broughtinto use more than at the reren- elec-tion held February i:t? Whatehancohave the people of oleetini? a memberof the Board of Education withoutthat person first being approved bythe board itself? In other wnrds, isnot the board self perpetuating; in re-nominating its own members and se-lecting the new ones? Kvory West-fielder is a booster for Westfleld,every Westfieldcr should b« a boosterfor its schools and I am sure that thefeeling which now exists could boerased if the board would in the fu-ture, if they have complete plans tooffer, put 'hem t»fjvo the peoplethrough our local p ip 'm, then call ageneral meeting C r discussion. In
h 'r Nvrds, we ar« jisike.i to vute ona part program; why not give us »nopportunity to know what the entireprogram amounts to.
Nothing will hurt our beautifultown us much as having several fac-tions pulling in different directions.Why not give the people of Westflelda chance "to taste the cooking beforeit is finally put upon the menu?"

The pointseems to be thnt the school childrenreceive a smattering of nearly every-thing and are not thoroughly ground-ed in one study, according to whatthe Governor said He did not ex-press this as' his personal view, butsuid it came to him from varioussources and Tie thought it his duty toacquaint the Legislature with whathe had heard.
The Governor recommended theapointinent of a committee of ninepersons "to make a survey of ourentire educational system." He alsoasked for an appropriation of $75,000for the work.
He showed that the public schoolsystem of the State is now costing$40,000,000 yearly. We have, he said,

Nunibcrous complaints mid criti-cisms liuvc been made of the schools,the Governor declared, being directedmainly at the "fads iind frills."
"In this category," he continued,"nre included such subjects us bas-ketball, floorball, directed play, folkdances, intelligence tests, Palmer Kys-tem of writing, business training, do-mestic science, drawing, music, mod-ern liingungei!| manual training, pub-lic speaking, promiscuous reading topupils, salesmanship, sewing, cooking,am! stenography and typewriting.
"These same critics claim we areneglecting tile primary education ufour children; that the fundamentalsare not being firmly implanted intheir minds, and that too much time
being spent on subjects which willbe of little or no use to the childrenin after life."

Helium, thoughtwice as heavy as hydrogen, and consequently not possessing the liftingpower of the latter more than makesup for this feature by being noncombustible and thus eliminating thedangers of fires and explosions, Theoxy-hydrogen Mow torch for hightemperatures is giving way to theoxy-acetyleno and the electricwhose temperatures are nearly twicethat of the hydrogen torch. Immensequantities of hydrogen, however, areused in the comparatively new pro-cess of hardening oils.

And so the studentsas th(iy read cannot help but be im-pressed with the universal populardemand for the gifts which chemistryhas bequeathed in the pant and willhave ready for the future.

Last wi>ek Westfield easily defeat-ed Irvington's slow basketball quintetby the score of 31-18. Westfieldagain felt the blow of incligibilityrules when it was found thnt onlyfight out of a squad of twenty wereeligible. Brunner, Morgan and John-son were the regulars who were oft.
Thursday night the chance wasiiffiin given the citizens of Westfieldto see some real basketball. Madisonbrought a fast team here nnd defeat-ed WcsLfidd by one point. It wasno disgrace to lose that game. West-fll' behind in the first half by(lelieijilil points, and in the second halfcame back, almost Kettinjr on tileIni-Re side of the score, but the whis-tle Mew with Miidison on top. TheIOHH of Morgan tuid Brunner nt ^uardwas felt the worst. Mitchell playedthe best Rmnp. for the visitors, hold-ing the local forwards and forminKMadison's main offense. The finalscore was 20-19.

THE SIN OFBEING FAT
A Good Figure li An Important Fac*tor in Woman's Looks, Says
Prominent Society Woman.
In nn article in the New YorkWorld, Mrs. Lyiiig Hoyt recently said:"I was asked what I considered themost important factors to a woman'slookR, I unhcstitntingly said first, aRood skin, and second, a good figure.To my mind, fatness is onn of thedeadly sins. No woman with a lovoof benuty will be fnt. It's n bitter Ithing to be a fnt woman, for fashion 'makes no allowance.1; for her."
Every fat woman knows the lmmli-icups of surplus llesh. What a pitythnt no many women who could nat-urally bo attractive, eoritin.io to carryimmml a burden of unaightlv fat

The Story YourHands Reveal
T^INGERPRINT experts knowA how much the hands can re-veal about a person. But it doesn'ttake an expert to read the story somany hands tell—those of a house-wife, for instance. If they are red,rough and coarse looking, an aver-age person can tell that she thought-lessly uses some common householdsoap which irritates and roughensthe skin.
Intelligent housewives nowadayschoose the kind of household soapthey use as carefully as they dotheir toilet soap. And to get a soapfor every household and laundrypurpose as harmless to their handsas is the most exquisite toilet soap,the modern housewife insists uponKirkman's.
THE reason h that Kirkman'sSoap, being free from irritating
lye, will not harm the skin or injurethe most delicate fabrics. It ismade of the purest and finest mate-rials. It contains absolutely noadulterants such us starch, title orwater-glass, which have no cleans-ing value.
Kirkman's Soap users know, too,that i\ is a most thorough cleanser.
For the sake of your hands insistupon Kirkman's Soap.

The Increased Value ofTelephone Service in
Westfield"TODAY your local telephone service is many time* more valua-
ble than it was ten years ago. In a aingle decade its scopehas been more than doubled.
In 1914 you could call only 1,487 telephones in the Westfield local
telephone area. Today you can call, or be called from 3,291 tele-
phones in this same area-an increase of more than 120%.
And today your local tckphone system is growing even more rap-idly than in the past decade.
The more it grows, the more valuable becomes its service—the
greater your opportunity for carrying on your business and social
affairs more caaily, more quickly and more economically.

Concerning the fourth boy, EdwinGottlick, who had been found guiltyof entering the High School and do-mestic scitnee department and takingehoeolate on last Hallowe'en andwho confessed in full, Mr. Sneviiysaid the Board had decided to sus-pend the execution of the sentenceof expulsion in his case as he bad ex-pressed a contrition for his part inthe affair and had remained to takehis punishment, instead of runningaway, as had DeMund and Dietz,whose flight after the trial got toohot for them was fully detailed in'The Leader" of last week, Gottlickwill be under strict observation, how-ever, and his punishment will takethe form of disbarment from all ath-letic activities and games in the HighSchool, he will not be permitted theuse of the gym or allowed to takepart in any of the class activities, thesenior play or take part in the classd»y or commencement exercises.Should he pass his examination hewill receive privately his diploma,but failing in these a verdict j>f ex-pulsion will be enforced against him.
Young Gottlick is a senior and isExtremely anxiops, as are his parents,that he shall be allowed to seek toredeem himself and secure his diplo-ma, and owing to his honorable con-duct in franklv confessing his guilthe Hoard is disposed to give him a
chance. Hia desire is to study dentis-try at the University of Pennsylvaniaand if he obtains his diploma at theclose of the school period in June hewill be qualified to take the univer-sity exams and follow the studies hehas mapped out for himself, Gottlickwas slated for a part in the seniorelass play, but he has been withdrawnas an actor in the part assigned himand for that reason the presentationof the play has been postponed untilanother boy can qualify for the part,
All three boys who were expelled,it was learned by the Board, had par-ticipated in all three affairs of invad-ing the domestic science department.The first entry took place on eveninglast September. The boys, accordingto their confessions, were aftercandy or something to eat. In theiecond raid on Hallowe'en, Gottlick
with the other three. On thohird and by far the most serious"aid, the object was the same as onhe previous occasions—-the boys wereungry and were looking for aome-hing to eat. They had made no pre-'ious plans to cause the havoc whichhey finally accomplished and Beemedo have iiQ_ nnpr.eciatj,oii of tho scri-)usness of'their' offense ' until theublic hue and cry arose iu town
igainst them. When they gt>t intothe school, which was not difficult,due to the lack of a watchman, theybegan hunting around for food andin the course of their search theycame across a quantity of eggs.They had previously drunk or spillednine bottles of milk and when theiggs were discovered they each tookone and one boy dropped his egg onhe floor and it broke.
The Egg< Bagin Io Fly.That one incident or accident
aroused the spirit of mischief or de-struction and the eggs began to fly—first at each other, and then therewas a regular bombardment of walls,
bles, fioors,etc, until the placelooked like an uncooked omelettespread across the landscape promis-cuous like and quite artistic. Themore bedaubed the walls became themore the spirit of destruction grewand the three boys then began toempty ketehup bottles, salad dressingand flour containers, chocolate bot-tles and every form of liquid theycould lay their hands on. Their
dreams of what a perfectmess would look like were realized[anil when they left their appetites fordstruction were completely satisfied.
It is a remarkable commentary on[the frat spirit which had grown upjaninng the boys that nont one of thejlads "peached" on the others. WhenPcMund's Ulltnle fingerprints, which[were found on a jar of jinn, camejundor the eagle eye of the Newarkt v t in criminologv and the result

of the byys here who had undertaken :to offend in the practice of bringing)in falsely signed cards explaining ab-1senee from school attendance and hewas satisfied it would from now onfall on two per cent, or be whollygiven up. In other words, he feltthat there had been a complete clean-up of the whole situation and therewould be no repetition of the offenseswhich had so exercised parents andthe townspeople generally.
The story of the flight of youngDeMund and Diets has already beentoid in the "Leader," which was thefirst newspaper here or elsewhere todisclose to the public that they hadtaken French leave. They got to thenational capital by securing rides onautomobiles and from that point, asalready stated, despatched words of Itheir whereabouts to their parentsand to their former fellow students.Boy. Will Work to Pay (or Damage
Mrs, Louis A. Diets, mother ofRalph Dietz, told a "Leader" reporterthat she had heard from her son byletter from Washington, but had nothad any letter from him since he ar-rived at the capital, although she hadunderstood that Mr. DeMund had re-ceived word from his son that he andthe Dietz boy had left Washingtonand worked their way to Paris Island,S. C, where young DeMund has anolder brother who is in the U. S. Ma-rine Corps. Young Diets, in his let-ter to his mother, stated that he andDeMund, not caring to face the situ-ation, had decided to run away andthey got to Washington by beggingrides from passing autos, In his let-ter Ralph did not express any sorrowor contrition for his offense, but hewas sony he had caused the burdenof his wrongding to fall on his par-ents uml that DeMund, being of thesame mind, the two had decided togo to work at anything they couldfind and try and earn enough to payfor tho damage they had done. Mrs.Dietz seemed quite resigned to thesituation and stated that she thoughther boy was old enough to take careof himself and that in good time hewould return. He did not have muchmoney when he left, she said.
Mr. DeMund, when seen by a"Leader" representative when firstthe accusations began to be noisedabout town, declined to make anystatement, saying the case was in thecharge of Mr. Sneviiy and referredthe reporter to that member of theSchool Board. Later Mr. DeMundleft town on a business trip.
The official decision of the SchoolBoard in the case, adopted unani-mously, was written by Mr. Sneviiy,chairman of the committee having thecase in charge, and is us follows:
Verdict of Expulsion.""To the Board of Education,"Wostficld, N. J.

FURNITURE breathes of poetry, of romance, of thingsthat happened long ago. Or so it seems to me.

A HONEYMOON we meant to take;

There wasn't anyuue to blame; 'Wt jue«« te save, we started to;
Uul Uuiea were poor, the childrenfume.
And utlier tilings we bad to do.Youth went so fust, age euine so soon.We never tad that honeymoon.
And jet I wonder! Maybe w»Who Deter went so very far.
Who never got across the sea.Nor westward where the wotiderj
are.We may hare toad, who never roam,A sweeter honeymoon at home.
We never walked u castle wall,We never passed a palace door,
To me be our cottage seem too smallOr wealth a thing to hunger for,
So, sever far afield we went.But stayed at home and were content.
We know but little of foreign lands,But, oh, bow well we know our own!
We milde this garden with our hands.In er'rjr wall laid ev'r; atone.
However far men's flag* unfurled,Here was our harbor, here our world.
That honeymoon wo meant to take,Perlmps we had, and did not gee.
A lot of wealth I didn't make.But I had ynu, and you had me.
Some other lives grow dull so soon,But ours was all a honeymoon.

Something toThink About
Bj P. A. fCJLKER
UNDERSTANDING
I T SEEMS t* be the unfortunate fatex of thousands of likable men andwomen to make their entrance and exitupon tht stage of life, quletlj foldUielr heads, doge their eves and passaway to another existence without be.Ing understood,
They may have been of beautifulcharacter, easy in manert, had anabundance of good looks and kindlydispositions, but for some Inexplicablereason they failed to make themselvesunderstood, even to their dMWt intl-
- mates.
Husbands and wives hir* beenknown to live together scores of yean,endeavoring all {list tine to under-stand ench other and to be understood,but failed In their effort.
They were strangers living in har-mony, adhering punctiliously to thefiner rules of courtesy and given Inpublic to the use of endearing ex-pletives, yet In heart dwelling as farapart from each other as the Northstar Is from the Southern cross.
This failure to imderatand one an-other Is an Incomprehensible trait ofhuman nature. It Is a source of muchunintentional Infelicity. Each day thedivorce courts give evidence of thisprevailing condition in society, whichIs not by any manner of means confinedto any particular set.
It la a common misfortune afflictingall the peoples of earth, like measlesor hay-fever, regardless of their nodalstatus, accomplishments or wealth.
A poet writes n noble poem which Isrejected time and time ugaln, until Itfinally Is cast aside as being unworthy.At his death the verse Is discoveredamong Its ege-slnlned companionswhlcb, likely as not, hud met a similarfate.
An appreciative soul finds It, removesIt from Its tomb of webs and dust,gives It publicity snd the literary worldgoes suddenly mad over a pricelesstreasure.
All through tils life the writer bedbeen misunderstood.
In much Hie sinie way do we misun-derstand the worth of our kindlyfriends and bdvlscrs, wbom we elusKi©-lessly avoid.

FOOLING It EDDY FOX
JUTtt. COON, bod ninny scores to set* " • tie with Reddy Fox. but as Iwag not na clever or sly us Reddywas seldom he had a chance to pinany tricks without ^fitting the worsof it.
But one day us he was looking dofrom a tree where he was flutters-nlong one of Its brandies he sti»old log and whrm he saw 31r. liubblrun into one end and come out of thother he knew very well it was hollovwithout nnjone telling him.
Then Mr. Coon began to think, andthe more lie thought the broader tvahis smile, until at last lie laughed lighiout load, "If I could get him In theiI would give him one good benting,"he said, nnd then Mr. Coon came downfrom the tree and went to the log,
"Yes, I do believe it can be done," hesaid, and oft* he ran for home, andwhen be returned lie brought some henfeathers that came from the tall ofone of Mr. Man's fat hens,
lir. Coon tied n piece of twine tothese feathers and laid them on theground at one end of the hollow log,and with the other end in ono paw lieran through the log nnd along Iho leafcovered ground to a tree not far uway,still currying the twine In his paw.
Up the tree he climbed nnd fastenedthe twine to a branch; then down liecame and went to the log again und,tucking the ben feathers In the openingso they could just be seen, he stood oil'a little distance and looked, "yes, sir,"He said, "I do believe I can fool him."
Mr. Coon was careful to see that thetwine running from the log to the treewas hidden under bushes that grewclose to the ground, that would keepIt from being seen and yet did not holdIt fust, so that he could pull It by theend he had fastened in the tree.
Roddy Fox could not resist chicken,and thinking he was going to have afine dinner started to crawl Into thehollow log, when be became fastened.
After a while down from the treecame Mr. Coon. Picking up a goodstrong stick, he ran to the end of thelog where Beddy's legs were kickingand gave him two or three good hardcuts.
lir. Beddy Fox howled and wriggled,but be could not get out, and, givinghim one more thump for good measure,Mr. Coon dropped the stick and ran offInto the woods.
In a few minutes he came down thepath from the other direction, makingall the noise possible as he shuffledalong. When be came to the log whereBeddy was1 a prisoner he stopped.
"Who's there?" asked Iteddy in muf-fled time. "Help! help! I can't getout".
"Will, if tiiat isn't Heilily Fox," siiidMr. Coon in a tone of grefit surprise."What la the world are you dyingthere?" he asked. "Surely you did notlet your head run away with your goodncnse, Sir, Fvxi 1'ou are in a terribleplight, I must admit. Why, you mighthave died lu there If I had not hap-pened along."
"Mr. Coon, won't you please pull meout? I em smothering In here," saidKeddy For, wondering if Mr. Coon wasgoing to tulk the rest of the day In-stead of helping him to get free.
"Why, of course, of course," said Mr,Coon, taking Reddy by the hind ftetand pulling with all his might.
Rcddy wriggled and Mr. Coon pulled,and after a while out he came, lookingvery much the worse for the struggle.
As they sat on the ground gettingtheir breath Reddy listed, as he rubbedhis buck, "Did you see ony one runningthrough the woods as yon cume along,Mr. Coon?"
Mr, Coon shook his head and lookedvery innocent. "No. Did you sen any-one?"
"No, but I felt—I mean, I thought Iheard some one just before you camealon£. By the way, Mr. Coon, I want

TN NEW ENGLAND there Is a popu-A lar superstition that It Is nnlucky tokeep Ivy In the house and that Ivy Isunlucky as a gift. At first It seemsstrange to see the idea of bad luckassociated with Ivy, which plantjjec-

All popular superstitions have anorigin, which origin must be searched(or in remote past almost without ex-ception. They are Inheritances. Thosewhich at first glance appear to fiemodern will, upon Investigation, gen-erally be found to be most ancientIn their roots. Thus the Idea that theeating of tomatoes produces cancer,a few years ago a most common super-stition and one which would appearto date only from the comparativelyrecent time when tomatoes were firstused as food, Is, In reality, merelyan application of one of man's earliestconceptions, that _of Jbe jirlmltlve

DOLOBES
LIKE Juanita, the Spanish Doloreslias gained extraordinary vogue In
tills country. Indeed, it Is now regard-ed as typically American, especially luthe Southwest where the Influence ofthe early Spanish settlers has been eu-graved Tor all time. Its unfortunatetranslation, "sorrow," has neverchecked its vogue; rather, the oppositeemotion has seemed to invest its bear-ers. Most of the Dolores who havecome to the writer's notice have beengay coquettes with laughing eyes andlips.
The name is one of Spanish Catholicgrowth, and was originally applied toexpress the mournful circumstances ofsome "child of misery, baptized intears." The fashion for bestowingthe name of the Holy Virgin upon sev-eral members of a Catholic family witha distinguishing phrase led to the fre-quent usage of Dolores. Parents, mind-ful of the Seven Sorrows supposed tohave pierced the heart of the HolyMother, would choose for one child themusical mime of Jlarln de Dolores.
It Is quite appropriate that Dolores'tallsmantc stone should be jet, theemblem of sorrow. But fortunatelyfor her, to wear the stone Insures theopposite emotion; It will protect herfrom sorrow, from danger and disease.Tuesday Is her lucky day and 4 herlucky number.

MEN'S CHURCH CLASSVOTES FOR ACTION
AGAINST ALL WARS(Continued from Page Oae)
"With respect to the question ofdisarmament, we heartily approve ofthe steps already taken and we areproud of the fact that the UnitedStates, under the dictate of our latelamented President, Waren G. Hard-ing, brought the leading nations to-gether and entered into agreementfor the dismantling of numerous shipsof war, Further steps in the samedirection, with the ultimate aim ofcomplete disarmament, have ourhearty «nd sympathetic approval.
"We state it to be the united opin-ion of this class:
"1. That whatever may have beenthe justification lor ware in the past,they have been utterly futile to ef-fect a lasting settlement of anymoral question and their total effectshave been inimical to the establish-ment of the Kingdom of Cod onearth,
"2. That it is not only the legiti-mate, but a primary concern of theChristian church to exert all the in-fluence at its command against thewar system and in favor of a.peace-ful settlement of controversies bydiscussion and conciliation.
"3. That it is also the duty of thechurch to determine the underlyingcauses of war and press upon govern-ments the necessity for the removalof such causes as a step toward per-manent peace.
"4. While not agreed as to thebest method adapted for realizingthis ideal we unite in thought on thedesirability of some sort of worldcourt and u convention among na-tions to first submit their disputes tothis court for decision before anyovert act of war is committed or anypreparations, other than normal ac-tivities, are started.
"5, We believe the teaching ofJesus to be opposed to war and there-fore we, his followers, should strive,with all our collective might, to avoidwar. We commend the inaugurationof an educational campaign to ac-quaint our members with the factsconcerning the cost, horror and fu-tility of war, and we believe thereshould be an inclusion in our Sundayschool program definite instruction inthe interest of peace and we suggestto the educational committee and theofficials of the church the subject ofa program of agitation in the interestof peace, as a proper one for theirconsideration.
"AH this is submitted to this classfor its action and in the spirit of theMaster, from whose gentle touch andministration in their fnlness andbeauty, a sinful -world has so strange-ly turned and of which it is now sostrongly in dire need."
The committee which prepared the"statement of principles and resolu-tions was continued, with instruc-tions to Bubmit the class' action tothe educational committee for itsconsideration with reference to thatportion of the declaration which favora instruction in the Sunday schoolon the subject.

the greatest year by far it has everknown," Bald William Ehmling, localHudson and Essex dealer, on his re-turn today from a trip to the Hud-son, Ford and Buick factories in De-troit. He found the plants operatingat the largest volume In their history.
The machines and manufacturingmethods which make cars possible atthe unusual price they are soiling to-day are the moat interesting eights Ihave ever seen.
One of the most interesting ma-chines w"as a delicate testing devicefor checking the balance of thecrankshafts. A crankshaft revolvesabout 1,500 Xf> 2,000 times a minutefor average driving, and unless it isperfectly balanced it Bets up vibra-tion. To guard against this, crank-shafts are placed in a special testingmachine and revolved.
The men in the plant are not hur-ried, but their tasks are so well or-ganized for them that they accom-plish an immense amount of workwithout over exerting themselves. Theplants are light, clean and equippedwith the latest safety devices.
In the Hudson factory ninety percent, of the constituent parts'whichmake up Hudson and Essex cars aremanufactured and finished. Evensuch units as axles, clutches andtransmissions arc produced by Hud-son's own working force in its ownplant—not bought outside and assem-bled. Thnt means only one manufac-turing profit.

THE ROMANCE :Of WORDS :
, "CABAL" •
TN I'KACTIOALLY every work ;•*• on etymology and In a number !of dictionaries which are sup- ;posed to give expert Information .upon the history of the language ;one will find Unit the word ."cabal," meaning n number at ',persona secretly united for some <private purpose, Is made up !from the Initials of the UrltUh <ministry consisting of Sir Ttiora- \as Clifford, Lord Ashley, the ;Duke of Buckingham, Lord Ar- !llngton and the Duke of Lauer- ;dale. '
The history of the time indl- !cates very clearly that these livemen certainly formed what hatcome to be known us a "cabal"but, unfortunately tor the truthof the story thtit It was on ac-count of their Initials that theword was bora, at least twodates la connection with theword do not bear out this ton-tenilon. In the first place, thisministry was not formed until1870 and, on December 21, 1007,three years before, Pepy» wroteIn his diary: "Tno Archbishopof Canterbury 1« called no moreto the Cabal, nor, by the way.Sir W. Coventry, which I tunsorry for, the Cabal i t presentbeing—the King and Duke ofBuckingham, and Lord Keeper,the Duke of Albemorle, andPrivy Seale."
Even If Pepjg coined theword, which Is doubtful becauseof the sure manner In which heuses It, it antedates by nearlythree full years the formation ofthe G-A-BA-L ministry. Thennme appears to have teen firstgiven ns a soubriquet to theEnglish ministry after the restor-ation and was probably at Brit-ish form of tlie Hebrew Cab-bfilu,

WILLIAM WAVERLY
AS WIUJAM WAVBRLY walkedtoward th« private elevator at tbe
back of the great white marble bankbuilding, tbe guards made way for himrespectfully and several clerks mur-mured good morning Ingratiatingly,For wna not this young man, n» thepresident's personal secretary, destinedto he a power behind the throne? Hewas the last nf a line of equally care-fully dressed young men who had beenon trial for that position; but whereasthe others had disappeared within afortnight, this secretary hnd now heldhis post for three month)—exactlythree months that very morning,
William Waverly, en route to thetwentieth floor, was not to certain ofkia position. Pay day always madeMm nervom. Be cleared his throatuneasily and loudly eo that the ele-vator raun glanced In his direction.
An hour later a message reachedhim to report Immediately In the greatfinancier's Inner ofliee. The presidentmotioned wsverly to a seat and tookout a cigar. Again Waverly scrapedhis bronchial tubes, and the presidentput down his cigar unllgbted.
"Waverly," he begun, "I'ai givingyon this Interview because In manyways ynu're Just the man I'm lookingfor. Yon are reliable; that's essentialto me. You have system—"
I Here Waverly iiimle again the nerv-ous, scraping noise In his throat.
At that sound the president pushedbnek bis chair. "Tin going to be bru-tnllv frank, yonng man," lie continued."In the dny-by-day contact one hitsvfltli one's neeretary, something morethnn honesty and good bookkeeping Isnccwsuiry. Von nre lacking in tact—Intuition. You have a personal habitthat Is very unpleasant to me, und jouhave not recngnlsrd that faet. I knowfrom Hie report of your physlcnl ex-amination tl:nt you arc not 111. There-fore your continual clearing of yourthroat seems to me to argue failure Inself-contrnl and lack In a certain sortof Intelligence that I place very high.I expect the nion In ray bank to knowliow and to carp lo make the bank aIilcnsiin! i,lnce. That's very ImportantIn the wear and tear of work. Fromjour own point of view, wnverly, I•consider It a big factor In your suc-cess. !'vc given you a longer trialthtm I give t>ioMt men.

"I've gol s family of my own, eat-iag roe out of hearth aad home," said
"And living's hurd these days," saidtlie spinster aunt, Martha.
"Bol we can't let Brother John'schildren be brought up by the parish,"aid Aunt Tilly. "Besides, the parishwould come down on us."
"I've sold I'm willing to pay myshare to have them boarded out icheap," said Dncle Jim, "But you'llall hnve to come across with your«nare of the money."
"Well. Ihut won't cost so much." saidUncle SIIHB. "They can he boardednut chimp aa dirt."
"Ilrothpr John always was playingmean tricks on the rest of the family,"lamented Uartha.
The four had gathered at the houseof Ilielr deceased brother. Uncle Johnliod always beea a ne'er-do-well. Hiswife hnd died the year before, nnd h»had hired a slatternly girl to take care»f his boy and girl. Now he wns dead.His brothers and sisters hud been m-iranRed from him for years. It didseem hard that they should be ex-pected to provide for Brother John'schildren.
Each was anxious to cry off andthrust the burdeu upon the others.And yet pneh was painfully consciousof obligations toward them, of publicopinion.
"I rwkon there ain't no wny of get-ting out of It." moaned Aunt Tilly.
"I was thinking." said Uncle ,11m,"how'd It be If each of us was to boardem three months In the year, andsend 'em round, like. Then we'd hanenine months pence In the year, end Itraljrhtn't cost go much."
"1, don't see It that way," said UncleSilas. "I've Rot o family of ray own,and what they don't eat ain't worthknowing about."
"The cost of living's so tu r t l e high,"sighed Annt Martha.
"Seems to me," said Aunt Tilly,"that you, Martha, being witiiout nfamily of your own. are the one totnke 'em."
"And yon can take 'em cheap, atcost price," said Uncle Jim.
"They'd grow up to be a trensnra toyou In your old nge." said Uncle Silas.
"I enn't sblde children, coming Intothe hnnse with their dirty shoes on,'answered Aunt Martha.
They stared moodily at each other."Something*! got to be done, and Ituln't no aae whining over it," midnncle Jim.

BIG STATION FOR HOLLAND ;
During the late war Hollandwas cut off from all direct cablecomnmnlcntlim with her colo-nies. In order to avoid possiblerepetition she is to establish avery powerful radio station atKootwyk equipped with appara-tus to reach as fur as Java, 7,500miles. i
GROWTH OF RADIO INDUSTRY
BMween Two and Three Million FarmHave Bought and Installed
Receiving Sets.
A little more than a year ago manyot the old established utttatifacturersof radio apparatus were wonderingbow they would dispose of their stock.Many dealers were just making a bar*Hrlng at selling radio apparatus. Justabout 300,000 radio amateurs scatteredthroughout the United States consti-tuted the field for sales of radio goodsand itrqiiiruiUB.
Siuce then a greut change has taken[iluce, Puulb has come upon the coun-try i s a tide. Old apparatus, Instru-ments manufactured under patents 15years old, ordinary double slide crya-Ul detector sets wen* becoming Im-mensely popular.
It Is suid Ihut there are almost HOOincorporated Manufacturers' of radioapparatus in the United States today.It is impossible to estimate the num-ber of dealers. Then' are some twoor three million funs who have biriiglitand Installed radio receiving sets.
These sets reeeke music anil otherbroadcast matter from some MO ormore broadcasting stations located inevery stute In tlie Union. Every statebut one has one or more stations, nndsome states hnve as ninny as 2D.
With the estnliilKliment of moresolid radio regulations, with the nd-vent of fnlr competition and Intelli-gent manufacture of radio apparatusof good design the infant rudlo babyis growing lustily.
complete sets, souje of. them attlie more complicated nature, b&vebeen turned out In the schools. Theauthorities say that boys are learningmore through wireless about elee-
I tridty, circuits, batteries, the tale-| plione and ether titan any te.vtliuuk1 could ever teach.
Japanese Hadio Enterprise.Powerful ttnnntial Interests of J&.
pan headed 1jy Viscount Slillmsuwa arefudeuvortug to obtain government sup-port in the formation of a KM.OOQ.WIOjcij radio corporation, which ia theUnited Suites would be worth abouttlOO,(K)O,flOO.
j Reason for Short Wiring.Tlie reason that you are urged to
use short wiring and right-angle turnsla connecting a set Is a (simple one,livery wire carrying an electric cur-rent has a magnetic field; if two wiresare placed near each other they willabsorb current, but If placed at rlsli;angles they will oppose each otherwhich Is just what they should do.If you run the wires long, they will,of course, meet witb other long leadsand there will be adverse Induction.
Wlrelets Invades Arctic.Wireless lius invaded the Arctic ter-
ritory, a powerful radio station havingbeen established on the NorwegianIsland of Jan Miiycn. It communi-cates with Norwegian, English andSwedish meteorological stations andwns designed for service to sealingnnd whaling vessels that put lu at JnrjMa yen.
Select Receiving Set Carefully.When making a purchase, usk the
dealer to show you the inside of theset. If all connections are not Bolderedthe wires will become IOIJSB utid recep-tion will be Impossible. Paste or acid,If spread carelessly over the wiring, ordirt Inside the receiving box will causatrouble. If tilings have beeu allowedto get Into the telephonn receiver, theattraction of the magnets will grndnally cause them to make their waythrough the Insulation nnd render thephones worthless. Watch out for thesedifficulties nnd avoid the'disappointnient that comes when a radio enthusi-ast gets all set to listen In, but can't.
Government Has Ten Stations.The federal government now main-
tains ten hrondcnstlng stations for thepurpose of sending out crop and mar-ket news.

The persou who v ishes long servicewill nol buy novelty shoes and expectbard wear from them. Hucli shoes aremade to supply tbe fancy trade, and

A bright Idea then flitted throughTommy's fertile brain and upon thatIdea he worked swiftly. Consequentlythe following morning among the per-sonal columns there was a short mes-sage.
"Will some one please ring my tele,phone until I answer It? Object, get-ting me up. Keward, a good dinnerand theater once every fortnight. Justbefore seven, please. Thank you.Tom, Riverside K-70."
Next morning at three minutes toseven Mary Dull on went to her tele-phone, called up Riverside K-79, wait-ed until a masculine voice calledsleepily "Hello," then hung up thereceiver. After that she sat down toher dainty breakfast and spin read

Following a beckoningnod he was almost at once betweenlow-headed thrifty young trees whosebending toughs were blotched anddotted wltk truly wonderful pink-tuihed, creamy-skinned peaches, big-ger thaa hit fist. Tlie trees were theforewerd te an orchard In high tilth.At Ita farthest edge a white house,weathered te toft gray, as though en-treating Its comrade protection.

"All but two ripe ones," tbe girlcried. See 'em—up In the tiptop.Sbake that big limb, bard. I'll boldmy apron to catcb them—and you mayeat one while I eat tbe other."
Llston obeyed, but, peacb In hand,said:
"Thanks', ma'am, but I'll keep minefor luncheon; may be too busy to huntanything else."
The girl nodded, saying joyously:"And I'll make you a sandwich andput in a little cheesecake—If yoa likeIt; maybe you'll sell some for us."
Llstun left ID a doze after paying adollar for the peaches and putting allbut the price of feed and stabling Intogarden stuff. Pate must love adven-turers. Inside of live hours he hadsold out clean, and sat In roadsideshade reckoning triple gains. Alsolie had laid the foundation of a newbusiness—laid It true and square.One woman had all but cried over notgetting all the peaches. To pacify
| her he had promised next morning'sbasketfu1 exclusively hers. Othershad iiskocl him to come regularly. Asfor the mill folk, they had all butmobbed blm, so Joyous was their hun-ger for green stuff,
"And I'll give to 'etn—fresli miUline," he cried half aloud, "l'oorthings. They deserve better than Hietown." Then came the great Idea—'why not lodge with Miss 'Itlah and herenchanting helper—now that he knewhe could pay, he bad fear to namethe plan—which two hours later wentthrough with bells on. He was toeverybody Mr. Providence—and flttedhimself admirably Into this unfamiliargroove. It was Joy to help with things—in the garden, the kitchen, whereMiss 'Blah made good Everllna'sboasts. Llston made a clamorousmarket for her offerings—but agreedwith her It was unwise to call in out-side help. "It's your touch does It,"be said oracularly. "Nobody canmatch that—and nobody would payhalf our prices If It were lacking."

After a lupse of 208 years, the officeof hereditary keeper of Stirling castle,tlie ancient residence of the Stuartkings, has beta restored by KingGeorge to the earl of Mar and Kellle.This oBIce was conferred on an ance»-tor of the present earl In the year1370 and held by the family, with onebreak, until 1715. The then earl tookaides with the Stuarts and, being de-feated at tStwlflniuir, was deprivedof hfs title.
At tlie ceremony of restoration theearl presented his royal warrant ofoiHce to tbe military commander oftlie castle, and received In return thekey on a red velvet cuihlon. Takingover the key, toe earl said that KingGeorge had forgiven the act whichbad deprived the Enklne family ofan honor highly prized by It, andwhich had now been restored,—<3irla-tlan Selene* Monitor,

And co, when MM Amber calledtie next diy Mrs, I'llson bat) seedsand spade and wheclimrrow all ready,"You mustn't Interfere with her," herfriend had warned her. Hiss Amberwas very busy all tliu morning, doinga man's work, fniK'le and delicatethough she waB.
"Won't you corae hi and take a littlelunch With ine, Kin Amber!" Mrs.HUon asked her,
"No, tliank you," /-aid Miss Amber."II w«s so kind of y«u to let me makeyour garden."
In a few days the garden was made.Beautiful (lowers cmae up—but then•very one knew that Mlas Amber badtile knack of muling flowers growwell. 81ie was, as good as uuy profes-sional gardener, every one said.
Miss Amber was very busy all thatspring, milking gardens. But when thesummer come she « I I I seen less thanbefore. The doctor mid that she wasconllned to the house. No, nothingparticularly the muiu'r with her.
"Between ourselves, she's alwaysfretted for Unruvell. and when she'sunoccupied she gets to brooding overhim," be said. "I shouldn't be sur-prised If she were to die any dny—Just die because she's tired of living."
Mm. Fllson went over to see MlsuAmber. So did must of the neighbors.They took her Jellies and little deli-cacies. Miss Amber was very grate-All and not In the least Insane, everyone agreed. "I shall be better soon,"sbe aald.
One morning when Mrs. Fllson wason her way to Mi?* Amber she wasslopped In the street by a stranger.

cast, from lead In such a manner asto leave the surface honeycombed. Inthis honeycombed surface of theplates Is forced a paste, formed bymixing llthnrge-leadoxlde with sul-phuric acid. After the plates are as-sembled with separators between theyare placed In containers In an electro-lyte consisting of u 20 per cent so-lution of sulphuric acid. The leadbody of a storage battery plate simplyacts as a bolder or container for theactive material. The actlvo materialsIn a lend storage battery are the leadperoxide on the positive plate, thesponge lead of the negative plate urn]the sulphuric acid electrolyte.
When a storage buttery Is discharg-ing, that Is, while a current Is beingdrawn from It, a chemical action takesplace In the battery. The lead peroxide of tlie positive plate and thesulphuric add of the electrolyte reactto form lead sulphate and water. Acidis more dense than water, so Hintwhen fully charged the electrolyte has
density of 1.275 to 1.800, whichmeans that the electrolyte la 1,275 to1.8 times ns heavy as an equal volumuof water, As the battery Is dischargedand water Is formed by the chemicalaction, the electrolyte becomes lessdense. Finally, when the densitydrops to 1.00 to 1.100, the batteryreaches a point when charging Is nec-essary. Thus the density of the elec-trolyte li a measure of how much en-ergy, or how fully charged the bat-tery 1«.

However, due to the fact that some ofthe lead sulphate Is not readily con-verted Into lead peroxide and sulphurlc add, it is necessary at timesto give the battery an over-charge. That is, the charging cur-rent should be allowed to flow afterthe battery has reached the chargedcondition, until after several hours ofconstant charging, there Is no In-crease In the voltage per cell or thodensity of the electrolyte.
The value of the charging currentis determined by the manufacturersand should not be exceeded. An ex-cessively high charging current willcause an Increase in the rate of de-terioration of the plates. Every timea battery Is charged or discharged acertain amount of active material onthe plates crumbles lind drops to thebottom of the cell.
Assuming the sume operating con-ditions, the life of n storage battery Isa certain number of charges and dis-charges. An excessive rate of chargeor discharge will cause the battery toheat, buckle the plates, and result Inan abnormal amount of crumbling ofthe active material, In the extremecase of a short circuit, the plates ofthe battery might be buckled to suchan extent that an internal short cir-cuit Is formed In the buttery.
