In a report to the American Chemical society Dr. Donald H. Andrews, of Johns Hopkins uiii versity*^ explains how the atoms stick together. Ills discovery or new contribution to the molecular theory is that atoms are chained together with spiral spring-like leashes. For his studies Doctor Andrews made h working model of a molecule of water by, fastening small steel balls to thie ends ofspiral springs. Its sha^e rosoni hied a wide letter,V, with the apex a large steel ball. To this ball two spiral springs were attached and at their ends were two small steel-j balls, representing the . two hydrogen atoms in water. The large ball represented the oxygen and the two spiral springs the leashes--chemical or " electrical forces holding the three atoms together to form water. When th«\ model was shaken in a variable speed machine it was observed that these mechanically produced vibrations corresponded with the Fight spectra of vibrations of aci uaI water molecules. -Other .mol.e? rules gave similar • results.

A demonstration recently given before the Southern Newspaper Publishers, association in Asheville, N. supported his claims, at least "in princi: pie," according to the Indianapolis News. The use of timber from thousands of acres annually in the production of newsprint pulp long ago raised a question as to where the future supply of pulp could--be found. Simultaneously.it was discovered that paper can be made from any fibrous vegetable material, grass, cane and cornstalks particularly. Weight, bulk and cost enter as controlling factors and practical deterrents. The ink-removing method will enable the manufacturer eventually to recover a considerable quantity of used paper that heretofore has been good, if at all, as pulp for coarse and colored paper in remanufacture. Inventors hope to find substitutes to meet demands ip the far future If the forest resources are exhausted. Quality |s, of coarse, the chief problem. ^ v Three Nations Offer Subsidies to Newly weds. London.---Just 100 years ago they laid old Thomas Malthus In his grave. He would stir there uneasily If he knew what was happening in the world today. Malthus was the man who linked population with the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse--war, famine, pestilence, and death--and made suggestions for curbing the birth rate.- Today the three greatest nations on the European continent are neck and neck In a race to increase it. France, Germany, and Italy are the runners In the population stakes. With m&ss marriage ceremonies, state subsidies for newlyweds, cash bonuses foi- babies, an^ stiff taxes on bachelorhood, they arc trying to make up for the "empty years" of the war--before another war comes along and finds them Phort handed.

As the larva approaches ma turity these vessels become gorged with a clear vlcous fluid, which upon being exposed to the air Immediately hardens to a solid mass. Advantage is taken of this peculiarity to prepare from fully developed larvae silkworm gut used for casting lines in rod fishing and for numerous other purposes Where lightness,, tenacity, flexibility nryl .strength are essential. The larvae are killed and hardened by steeping some hours In strong acetic acid: the silk glands are then separated from the bodies, and the viscous fluid drawn out to the condition of a fine uniform line, which Is stretched between pins at the extremity of a board. The board Is then exposed to the sunlight till the lines dry and harden into the condition of gut.* WANTED--WILL REMOVE DEAD.

The current musl^cbme from or he Induced by the sun. Two theories have been advanced. One Is that the cause lies In negative particles shot off by that body and caught in the magnetic field of the earth. The second Is that alphapartlcles, with a plus charge, come to us from radioactive 'substances In the sun. There Is said also to be a close connection between these auroras and the number of sun-spots. Mussolini Enthusiastic. • In his role of official Cupid to young Italy, Benito Mussolini has labored long and tirelessly, but to little avail. Now he has a formidable rival in Dr. Joseph Goebbels, who has been shooting arrows with 1,500 mark nptes tied to them at lovesick German swains. Despite the sterling example II Duce has set for the nation with his own large family, Italy has responded disappointingly to his "more babies" campaign. Every week Mussolini reviews the work of his deputy cupids and considers new -plans to encourage usable » more marriages and bigger families. Yet the bicth rate steadily declines. Sjnce 1921 Italy's population lias increased from 38,75.1,000 to 42,554,000. But whereas the birth rate was 39 per thousand in 1887, it fell to 32.4 in 1910; to 20.9 in 1929; to 24.9 in 1931, and to 23.8 last year. Next year, therefore, Mussolini -has decreed that the government shall give jobs to no- more bachelors. Pres* ent bachelor incumbents are busily casting about for eligible wives. The new "festival of marriage" held In Koine recently started its 2,500 Simultaneously married couples off in life with Fascist checks for $50 apiece. On each envelope was written: "Gentlemen, if we decrease the numbers we shall not be able to build up the empire, but run the risk of becoming a colony." Further stimuli are reductions of rent and taxes. The proud father of ten offspring need pay no taxes at all. Bachelors from twenty-five to •Sixty are heavily taxed. Subsidies for Newlyweda. r Across the Alps in Germany 100,000 couples have taken advantage ^of the offer of Cupids Hitler and Goebbel^o subsidize new Nazi menages. Gofe{g bels Is conducting the "more babies" propaganda on a gigantic scale. There are'7,000,000 fewer German children up to the age of twelve than there were In 1914. The Nazi government will lend young couples up to $350, if the promised bride Is willing to give up her job and refrain from working so long as her new husband earns a certain wage. The loan is paid not in cash but In vouchers for furniture, linen, or household necessities. It may be repaid In small installments. The scheme has created some 50,000 jobs so far for young men, who now are able In turn to marry. Many of the new brides have turned their jobs over to their husbands, who were previously unemployed. , For each new baby $100 comes oft the taxes and furniture installments*1 are suspended for the year. France has long encouraged big families, but Is redoubling her efforts now that Germany, and; Italy-are competing. There, too, the falling birth rate causes anxiety. The large attendance at the services gave evidence of the love and esteem ' Charles Brda"and Willys Schrefner! of1 her many frienas wtio mourned her departure from this life..
