CARBON MONOXIDE IS DEMtfENEMY More Than Thousand Human Lives Claimed bjr ^ Deadly Ga>. r •'One of man's niojst deadly enemies, carbon monoxide, which hns t»een called 'the universal poison gas,' will form the subject of a new educational motion picture film to ba produced within the near future by the United States bureau of mines, Department of Commerce," according to a statement Issued by the Chicago Motor club, which bases its assertion on a bulletin received from the Department of Commerce at Washington.*1 Thousand Lives Lo3t. "It is said that more thjji a thousand human lives were claimed by »this deadly gas during the past year, and that 700 deaths were due to drivers of automobiles being overcome while their engines were Idling in closed garages. In photographing this flhn, not only will the peril of carbon monoxide contained in automobile engine^ exhausts be emphasized, but attention will also be given to the hazards due to the presence of carbon monoxide under certain conditions In factories, in homes, and In fact, anywhere that there may ba posslbllty of exposure to the products of Incomplete combustion of fuels." What Film Will Sho The Chicago Motor club bulletin points out that, "The film will show how, by proper ventilation, accumulations of carbon monoxide may be prevented. There will also be pictured methods of first aid treatment and resuscitation which may Nbe administered to a victim of the poison gas If found before death has occurred. The film will be given wide circulation by the buRpau of mines in the hope that, through the universal language of visualization. knowledge of this deadly enemy of mankind may become widespread, thus serving to, diminish the annual heavy • death toll froin this cause." ______ '* -- In Jamaica they combine the Juices of a sour fruit and a sweet fruit, a bitter fruit and a pleasant fruit, and the result is drink called "matrimoney." Taken moderately It is s\?eet and pleasant with just a suggestion of acidity to prfe^£)it its cloying, wltb a bitterness which is not unpleasant But to those who try to absorb the entire available supply at once It has only bitterness and sourness, and fine turns from it surfeited--but, having been without it for a short time, one realizes that it Is the most refreshing and desirable draught in all the world.

Farmers would be talking strong of corn husking if the sun would shine a part of the time and get the corn dry enough. Some graveling needs to be done and is badly needed on the road running south from Ostend Corner. The job has already been commenced, but so much rain makes hauling impossible. The road has been prepared for gravel and in some places is so soft it makes traveling hard. Myron Francisco and wife of Wauconda motored up to gather apples on the Francisco farm for winter use.
