Install New Locomotives
Eastern Railroad to Utilize Electric Energy
New Haven, Nov. 25—Electric telecoms of a new type, that carry their own transformer stations and "step down" a high-voltage alternation current to a low-voltage direct current for home appliances in New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad, and according to state statements of William S. Murray, engineer in charge of electrification in the new era in mobile power for railroads.
"One of the main obstacles in the way of complete electrification of railroads has been the wide differences in the requirements for transmission of electric current and for the need to convert electrically transmitted as alternating current of high voltage. It can be rather efficiently and economically used as direct current at low voltage. Until the present time, electromotive engineering has had to be content with compromises. Less economical methods of electrifying railroads have had to maintain closely "steen-down" transformer stations along the right of way. The new locomotives carry their own transformers with them, and change 17,000 volt alternating current which they take directly from the trolley car. This is the current which is fed to their motors.
Six of the new type of electric beaters have been built by the General Electric Company for this railroad, and are being given a through test under working conditions. Four of them are used in regular train service, and two in rail service for switching purposes.

Ubiquitous Smith Family Leads University Roster Consisting of Helpful Material for Student
Smith is as popular as ever if the records in the new student directory are to be taken as evidence. The engineman of Smith is the most common title among the students of the department, and the nearest directory 51 times. The nearest competitor is not, as is usually expected, the surmame of James for that name appears only 23 times; but it is the second most frequently used which has a head of ten over the former name. Brown carries for honor fourth place having 28 points to its credit. None of the other color families are very prominent in numbers although the other might receive honorable mention.
Some people, it would appear, have their Christian names confused for the following is a sample of a few of the unusual surnames: Frank, Fredrick, George, Hazel, James, Robert Rubie and Russell.
If an engineer were looking through the rooster of students in search of equipment for some construction he might be fairly successful. He would find at least two Carr-s and several Bell-s, two Barr-s probably of Steele or Wood, also some Fines and Keys. There would be a lot of tools, and a Hammer which the Mason and his Crews could use.
However, if one were nonadultically inclined, he might go to the Hills and take up the life of Hunter. To aid in the Hunt, he could take four
Combat Disease Germs in Method Discovered by Dr. H. W. Taliaferro
Chicago University Scientist Is Attempting to Control Bacteria Life
Chicago, Nov. 25.-A new method of combatting disease gerns has been discovered by Dr. H, H. Taliaferro informally of the Johns Hopkins University and now of the University of Chicago.
When dangerous bacteria invades the human body, the automatic defensive mechanism of the body usually throws fighting units, called antibodies, into the front line trenches of the blood. These protective substances kill the harmful disease organisms.
The new substance found by Dr. Taliaferro is related to such usual antibodies, but instead of wiping out the substance from the skin, it forms protoproteins in the skin.
Working on a harmless blood parasite of rats, similar to the organism causing tropical sleeping sickness, Dr. Talafero found that the parasite, after the initial period of active multiplication, was able to reproduce its kind. Furthermore, by certain experimental procedure, he found that this peculiar occurrence is due to some substance produced in the rat's blood, and that blood serum containing this substance could be transmitted to the parasites in new infections.
This seems to be an entirely new kind of *actio*-body action. Generally serums, anti-toxins, and like substances act either by destroying the disease producing organisms or neutralizing their poisones. With this newly discovered substance, however, the case is different; it tolerates the presence of other agents, and the literally force race suicide on them by preventing them from multiplying. It remains now to discover whether in human睡眠 sickness a similar action exists or can be induced. This problem Dr. Talferafo is attacking
U. S. Educates Eskimos
lunar new year
Washington, D.C. — Uncle Sam spends 70 cents a day to educate each native Eskima and Indian child in Alaska according to the Department of Agriculture.
Each Alaskan's Education Costs Seventy Cents Daily
The average cost per child of maintaining schools for the Alaskan natives is $6.23, based on the total enrollment, and $7.55, based on annual attendance. Eighty-three schools are operated by the department, with 151 teachers, including principals and superintendents.
Kerr-*s* and, if in need of more orcaines, he might solicit the services of five Shearard-*s*. The game would be plenious for although there is but one Bear queen are three Lyons. Of course there is DeWolfe and there are seven Wolfe-*s*. Of the smaller animals he would find Koons, one Coon ad a Hare. If perchance he would find three Llamas and would find three Llamas and one Pig which, and to say, probably will never envoy to be a Houg.
With the Eskimos scattered over the Arctic regions in Northern Alaska, the department regards the Arctic as the biggest problem of the government. Some Eskimos live in small villages with a population from 50 to 500. The area of Alaska is divided into nine regions that vary in size the size of the state of Illinois.
(United Press)
While the enrollment of Alaska natives totals 3,910, the average daily attendance is only 2,652.
Those students seeking a little vocational guidance might do well to consult the directory. There will be found testimony from such professions and trades as Baker's, Barber's, Rutchets's, a Carpenter's, a Cobbler's, a Fitter's, a Fortresser's, a Taylor's, some Sailors, Seller's, a Stocker and some Shoemaker's. There is just one Priest and one Bishop although there are three Churchs and two Churchills." In the same connection, it is quite said to note that there is only one Christian. The two Sextons who are present have work or the record shows three Coffees and only two Graves.
In addition it is interesting to note that while a Mann or two is enrolled in the University, not a single Woman is recorded. The greatest tragedy, however, is the fact that the end one Foote and the most detailed searching has failed to recount but two Holiday-s.
Sons of Ananias Still Exist and Function
"Son, you may think it gets cold now but you'd ought to have lived in the early days." You've heard tales of kids playing hide-and-seek like this when ever the weather is mentioned. They will tell you now they used to skate in June and these snowshalls in July, or if it hippies to be out all winter with a fake egg by having them in the sun.
The next time you hear this, with knowingly and grunt a low "Oh Huh," knowing that all the sons of the mother are there, for statistics do not show this.
Data on the weather for Lawrence have been kept since 1808. Averaging the lowest temperatures for the first ten years of this data and for the last ten years we find that the first ten years were 6.75 degrees, June of the first ten years was 51.51 degrees, while for the last ten years it has been 51.50. It has actually been .01 degree cooler the last ten years. This is all the more striking because during June, 1809 was very abnormal with a temperature of 37 degrees.
Having shattered their happy young dreams concerning how cold it used to get, we are also able to show that it has been warmer the last ten years that it was the first ten, for the average maximum temperature the first ten years was 96.9 degrees for the last ten it was 98.55 degrees.
Having thus routed the prevari-
tors it is interesting to note that
there seem to be slightly greater
ranges of temperature during
the month of June now than, there once
were.
Gold Foundry Discovered
Paris, Nov. 22—The discovery of a secret foundry where French gold coins were being melted has given the police evidence of the operations of a gang of coin traffickers who are combing France for its hidden gold. Several arrests have already been made.
The situation has given gold trail trakers a fruitful market. Agents of the gang have poised as new marketing initiatives for devaired to win confidence in private homes. They have been offering about two and a half times the face value of coins in francs which, with their large volume them a clear profit of fifty per cent.
who had come with heavy sacks of gold coin. From evidence found the police estimated that 406 pounds of gold were being meted down there daily.
French Unearth Melting Pot of Coin Traffickers
A war-time act made the boarding of gold an offense against the State, and all citizens who possessed gold money were called upon to deliver it. Under our law gold must be exchanged for its pre-war value in manpower. If a person present exchange it is actually worth about five times that amount.

Helium Shortage Causes U. S. Officials to Worry

The French liked to accumulate gold and there was no great rush to deliver it when gold was so badly needed by the government.
Washington, Nov. 29—"What's the good of these government nihilism if we haven't enough helium to float them?" a said high military official to
By Ludwell Denny
The serious helium (non-inflammable gas) shortage has forced its self-upon officials' attention by the difficulty in inflating at the same time both the ZH-3 and the Shenango tank for the necessary reservoir supply.
Consequently there is a movement on foot to increase production of the government's helium plant at Fort Worth, Texas, which will open opening up new fields and laying new pipe lines. An appropriation of $10 million in federal budget, now before the president, to thirty miles of pipe line into the Red River gas field of Texas and Oklahoma.
