Hie research, still in the exploratory stage, is an o&growth of the successful synthesis of the drug Chloromycetin, Dr. Harry M. Crooks, Jr., of Parke, Davis & Company, Detroit, Mich., told the symposium, which is sponsored by the society's medicinal division. Dr. Crooks was one of the chemists who synthesized Chloromycetin-- the first antibiotic to be made artificially.

Youth Plays Part In Stock Show ^ -- -- •• • i * X Boys and girls from the continent's farm lands play a big part In the events of the International Live Stock Exposition. Jess. C. Andrew, president of the International, from West Point, Ind., expects the coming show, Nov. 25 through Dec. 2, in the Chicago Stork. Yards to bring the usual high recognition of the accomplishments of youngsters in agriculture. While tonrlng English stock shows the past summer, he met and talked with King George who was. interested in the work of youngsters in livestock in the United States. >Andrew said lie was proud to terll about last year's grand champion steer which was shown by the Pecos county 4-H club. The sale of the grand champion brought the club a total of $13,800 which, divided among the forty youngsters, made a nice scholarship for each. Junior sales . total nearly half a million dollars at each International. The junior livestock feeding contest, in which boys and girls show baby beeves, lambs and barrows of their own raising, is among the curtain-raisers of the show on Nov. 25. Youngsters have shown the International grand champion steer 14 times since they were permitted to show in the open classes in 1928. Similarly they have shown grand champion barrows and lambs in competition with adult livestock raisers. But many more acticities for boys and girls bring them into the limelight during the International week. The twenty-ninth National 4-H Club Congress will be held downtown, bringing delegates from most of the states, Canadian provinces and a number of foreign countries--the very cream of farm youngsters who win their trips to Chicago through accomplishment. Judging contests are also slated for youths engaged in agriculture. College-age men and women will have their Colelgiate Livestock judging contest while club youngsters will have theif Junior Livestock judging contest. They will be rated on tSeir ability in placing |ca ttle, sheep, swine and horses. «M|U Irsa life The first American shop for making butt-weld wrought iron pipe went into operation in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1822.

It points out that 'interior design must serve the living habits of you and your family; satisfy your ideas of comfort, beauty, economy, and ease of maintenance; and satisfy the broader standards of good design." Text of the circular Is by Prof. James R. Shipley of the art department; designs and illustrations are by William. S. Pusey, Small. Homes Council artist Among suggestions presented are: Don't clutter your rooms with too much furniture. Keep conversational groups sway from lines of traffic. Pull chairs out of far corners; group chairs together. Place tables and lamps near chairs and sofas. Where possible, make a table and lamp serve two or more seats. Hang pictures at eye leveL Furnishings should be similar In scale to achiev* harmony. A small, spindly end4atne looks out of place beside a large davenport. Diagonal pieces in corners waste space.

Home gardeners are warned by the national safety council to be careful of the lime they use on their lawns. Spreading of the wrong kind of lime can cause serious burnsrif the feet are moist Even perspirstion can be dangerous. Lime is a loosely used term, the Council says. The pure oxides of calcium or magnesium, known as "burned lime, never should be used on lawns and are dangerous to have rfrourd the house. Slaked lime or builders? lime Is slightly caustic and is not recommended for lawhs. Impurities usually remain in commercial hydrated lime which can cause painful burns when uniting with moisture on the skin. Carbonated lime or ground raw limestone are recommended for lawns because they are not caustie, and they act more slowly in neutralizing the acid soil condition, which brings about the change at a rate more beneficial to grasses. Children's Imagtaattea Children have great imaginative powers and can be provided with very rich experiences at litUe or no expense. This is true, for example, in permitting children to turn their own backyards into camp sites if a costly trip is out of the question. A roasting weiner smells almost as good at home as in the Blaine woods, and a clothesline tent IS an adequate tepee. m DR. HENRY FREUND OPTOHXTKIST At 136 8.

Many theories look good on paper, but quickly killed when put into practice. When Dog Is FolseaeS Due to their eating and licking habits, dogs are often poisoned accidentally. All cases of suspected or known poisoning warrant a veterinarian's attention, because death usually can be averted by quick use of specific antidotes and hypodermic injections. If a veterinarian cannot be reached, warm salt water or mustard water can be given by mouth to stimulate vomiting of the poison. Enemas and stimulants also •re helpful.
