AUGUST 11. 1»SU Of course, neither the electron nor the atom can be seen by any instruments which we have yet de vised. But listen to this! The scientists in that laboratory have rituied up a radio apparatus, at tached to a loudspeaker which is »0 delicate that it can detect the flight of eleetnns through the ether I held the dial of my wrist watch against the microphone. The fi gures are radium coated. And I could hear the electrons pounding into the loudspeaker like a show er of hailstones on a tin roof. On another floor I sat in front of a motion picture screen and s..\v talking movies of three great scientists of England. Sir Ernest Kutherford. Sir William Henry Nr“.£g, and Sir Oliver Lodge. Each one of them was photo graphed in his own laboratory. Each proceeded Io perform certain experiments and explain them. It was thrilling to sit in the living presence of such men and to think how valuable those pictures will he Io future j. iterations. Suppose there had ! cen a talking movie of Archimedes demonstrating the le er. or of Newton explaining the discovery o f gravitation! But what stirred r.gt most was not the experiut tits which these men performed hut (lie spirit cf their talk. Sir Oliver l odge, for example, picked up a little weight from I,is laboratory table and let it «Iron with a thud. "That experim ent,” he said, "is the simplest that one could possibly perforin and yet there is hardly an experiment about which we know less than we do Endurance Gives Out— On One Side TREE S ir r in ä - CCftóRÉSíMEN tl.c n which the general public does not study enough. In fact there are probably few people who realize that at die November election there will be at least thirteen measures and constitutional amendments for the people to vote upon. These measures are very important to the people of the state of Oregon. There are some which arc b a d a n d so m e w h i c h a r e g , > od a n d others which might be either good or had. They deal with everything from the closing of the Rogue to com mercial fishing to the prohibition of the sale of cigar ettes or the makings of a cigarette even to the importa tion or giving away of the cigarettes or the makings PsîfJ Ä ur.^jrt- within the state.

NOT SO LONG UNTIL SCHOOL BELLS RING “It won’t be long now,” is an appropriate expression as applied to the opening of the county schools. Within two weeks most of the county schools will be in opera tion and within three weeks all will be in operation with the possibe exception of some extreme cases. The summer's vacation has faded fast and the bogie of school days again faces the younger folks, but they will be ready to go back to the routine and discipline which the schools exact for they have had an opportunity to enjoy the pleasures and joys of the great outdoors. Their minds may be a little slow and their memory a trifle rusty at first but a few days and everything will assume their normal state and the teachers, will then divide time with the parents in the care of the district’s children. • AIMEE AND MOTHER QUARREL It has been some time since Aimee McPherson or Ma Kennedy has made the first page so they staged a bout down in Los Angeles from which they both.emerged with more or less mutilation. Aimee was said to be blind in one eye which report was refuted but her phy sicians claim she is suffering from a nervous breakdown. Ma is nursing a broken nose as a result of the fisticuffs. W hat a host of sins are committed in the name of Christianity. What are the followers of these women going to think of their display of brotherly1 love. With all their claim of inspiration they still follow the brute instincts of the profane. Hy Albert T.

There is one thing we cannot understand about our county seat papers and that is this. Why should their policy be so narrow and selfish that they cannot permit the names of any of the neighboring towns to receive Classified Ads Get Results mention in their newspapers other than when the item might lead to their injury or depreciation. And why this' policy is particularly carried out when some impor tant industrial move is made by the outlying towns. The county seat papers seem to have a sort of jealous disposition. If their stories cannot glorify their own city they do not care to mention any other cities. All Electric Sets Insofar as the county scat is the largest city in the Standard Makes county and whatever advancement is made in the rural towns only reflects to the advantage of their city we can While Stock Lasts at see no reason for their attitude. These newspapers ex Sacrifice Prices pect the patronage of the people from these outlying towns and perhaps wonder why they don’t get as much support as they should. If they would do a little more work in the interesf'bf their neighbors or even give them a square deal in their news column they might receive greater recognition.

If two hundred years ago anybody had predicted the marvels that can be seen there today, the God-fearing citizens of (he time would have burned him as a witch. For example, as you know, the metal radium is constantly giving off little particles which are called electrons. The electron is infin itely smaller than the atom. In deed, the atom is a comparatively big proposition, a sort of universe with lots electrons flying around inside it. , These three Guernseys, awarded high honors al Ihe 1929 exposition, will be returned thia year by M.
