The king of the elves, in the old fairy tales, sent his pixies and gnomes and dwarfs out into the wide world to seek enouuh nightingales' tongues or bluebirds' ( breasts to ho woven into a magic carpet for the king's daughter, the lovely princess. 1 'This modern workaday world seems eaons away from the-time of fairies, hut in this city, perhaps tho jhuslest industrial town in the coun try, a modern fairy tale is being lived which even the buzz and drone )f modern machinery cannot ; drown. j Hundreds of girls work in the great Ooudyear Hubber company here doing nothing but inspecting hundreds of thousands of cattle tis sues in order that the dirigibles, those fantastic birds of the air. may ride safely from ocean to ocean. . Can't Substitute for Nature 1 Nearly a hundred girls are now employed searching out perfect cat tle inner tissues for new gas cells for the navy dirigible Los Angeles. It takes tissues from l.imO.otu) steers to mako cells and envelope for the Los Angeles. 1 Science has spent hundreds nnd thousands of dol!urs,'suys J. K.

I Put the old-fashioned bossy cow thas won out over grave men in their laboratories. No Kod sub stitute has yet been found. I And the great ships ut the nir .fly heel-use thousands and millions of cattle have died, giving their vital tissues to these inanimate , "birds" of wood and steel and 'aluminum and silk. r j "Goldbeater cloth" was known to the alchemists of old. Medieval .goldsmith knew Its worth. Cel 'lini himself hammered out his fam ous sheets of gold, thin as silk, from which he fashioned the most beau tiful objects of gold the worhLhaHjtn the Los Angeles, and about 1 ever seen, by placing the preclousjsections t each cell. Since ! .metai between what the undents teriorntlon without the gas iufla 'called "s.teer stomachs." medical j lion starts almost at once, each (science not yet having decided jcell is sent to tho hangar as soon (where the stomach actually began as finished and Is installed nt and finished. 1 once, fo that most dirigibles are I The old prospectors of 49 knew In a constant stale of repair, with tbe worth of "steer stomachs." too. at least one new cell constantly Story has It that, occasionally nsjgoing in as another Is taken out.

The prospectors wanted to get their case knives Into the body, rip out the precious tissue, and have "gold-beater cloth," the best substance known to encase the ore and dust while it was pounded to yield up the precious gold. F.very particle clung to the "steer stom ach" and no amount of pounding made it give way. One of Chicago's greatest pack ing houses sends direct to the Good year skin room this intestinal tissue from every beef butchered In its yards. The skins are sent in hunches of a hundred packed in huge tuns filled wiwi salt, several hundred bunches to a barrel. From 'JO.nno to 100.000 skins are received each week. Vse a Million Skins About 100 girls have been work ing on the new lining for the Los Angeles for the past tteven months. A total of 15,000 yards of fabric must be lined with the cattle in testinal casings before the job Is done. About one million skins will be used, meaning that one million dead steers are represented in the big blimp." The cost of Iho nklns alone will be about $85,000. The process' of transforming i,it,. iiri-n.io tphiiu cattle tissues gas cells Is simpler than It Jsl speedy. The ureal kegs of salted tissues roll In from the packing house uai iv. 1 nev are wasneu. sorieo.

A speedy worker can scrape 400 a day. After more wn siting a nd more Inspection under powerful lights the skins are taken to a big loom where they are applied to a rub berized fabric, wetted down at an exact angle to pennlL proper shrinkage when dried. One girl can lay about 250 skins a day. There are 1 4 cells ENVELOPE The room where the skins are uim"- io me nioric is nermet i-: cally scaled.

In Aue- Hon a bid of two No Trumps is a distinct request to u partner not to lake It out with a suit - Major or Minor, weak or st roug unless the hand Im u veritable I'retik; but in I contract II- i huportunt Unit tho strength of the initial bidders hand should be. shown so that the partner will know when it Is safe tor him to make a jump, so the two No Trump does not curry the Auction message ami partner with strength and length bids three of a suit nver 1t unhesitatingly, thus giving the No Trnmper a choice between bidding lor game In that suit or No Trump. When we come to th; question, of what strength Is required for the' partner of a No Trump bidder to raise or Jump the No Tiuuip to a higher figure, it will be pointed out that less Htrength is required to Jump a bid from two to three , than to jump n bid from one to-j Two No Trumps should noi, t. 1,1,1 hift al v un ess llio hiituor 1 ; lH prepared to have his partner 1 jump to three wllh one Ace or a Uim,i conituK' si v.
