Heat Curls "Cuff The temperature Is read, not with a thermometer,, but with a metst sheet shaped like a man's cuff and about the same size, it Is two kinds of metal, one overlapping the other, each responding differently to ex pansion and contraction due to tem perature. So the cuff curls up more as It gets warmer, and straightens out more with a temperature drop. The experiments Indicate that the "homogeneous" top layer of water varies from zero to 100 feet In thick ness.

Bag B.T HOWARD W. BLAKESI.EE Associated Pre a Science Editor WOODS HOLE. Maw. (AP) The existence of Internal waves tn the ' sea U expected to be revealed through studies with a new Instrument tn use at the Woods Hole Oceanographtc Institution. The Internal waves, If they exist, re not small like surface swells, but more like tidal waves. Their surface Is not more than 100 feet down. It lies under the "homogeneous" layer of top sea water, & layer created by the churning of wind and waves, and of differences In temperature, density and salinity between the surface water and the water below. The "homogeneous" layer Is a sort of restless, Neptune' blanket cover ing the calm, cold depths. Man sees beneath It only rarely. With a "glas sy" sea It may almost disappear. Swimmers ordinarily swim In this blanket, but occasionally It gets so thin their bodies break through Into the colder water below. Interest Weathermen The Internal waves have some In terest to weathermen, because of the ories that they may resemble meteor ological conditions believed to exist In upper layers of the ocean of air at the bottom of which man lives. The new instrument was devised by Prof. C. G. Rosa by of the Massa chusetts Institute of Technology. It was nicknamed "the rat trap" by the tailors of the Atlantic, the Oceano grahlc Institution's vessel, from the decks of which It Is operated. The "rat trap" resembles a metal suitcase, higher than It Is long. Low ered over the side of the ship, it reads water temperature and pres sure simultaneously and automatic ally. The pressure shows the depth. So It makes a continuous record of the Neptune blanket of water. No other instruments have done this easily and automatically. The old method of measuring the depth of wire submerged Is not accurate enough when the current slants the wire too much. Records Written on Foil The underwater records of tem perature and pressure are written bj one pen, a horizontal displacement indicating temperature changes and a vertical displacement changes in depth. No writing fluid flows from the pen. It scratches Its record in a film of lamp black coated with oil. and spread over the surface of a metal foil as thin and flexible as pnrr". j After It comes out of the water, the lamp black-oil film Is fixed as firmly as a photograph by a bath of alcohol and Bhellac. The scratched line shows tempera ture changes as slight as a tenth of a degree, and changes In depth foot by foot. The pressure is measured WASHINGTON (UP) Approxi mately 1,000,000 pairs of wooden shoei are manufactured and consumed an nually In the United States, the com merce department reported. The shoes chiefly are used by work, ers in damp fields, factory workers and theatrical people, the department reports. Manufacturers produce a wide va riety of wooden shoes ranging from women's and children's open san dals to heavy work shoes for men. Prices range from 91 a pair for all wood sabot, to 11.50 for a pair of ox fords. High wooden shoes range In price from 91.75 to 93, the depart ment said. SACRAMENTO, Cal. (UP) Match ing his speed against that of a rattle snake, John Llcclardl, 21, CCC camp enrol lee., snatched the reptile as It struck and dashed It against a rock, thereby winning the grim contest. Llcclardl was working alone, at tempting to pry a boulder from a new road, when he heard a hissing rattle behind him. He leaped to a shelving rock ledge, dropping his crowbar. The snake struck and he dodged. The reptile coiled and struck again, and this time the youth grasped its body In midsection and threw it against a rocky wall, crushing Its head. NOTICE GLADIOLUS GROWERS It has come to the notice of the Glndlolus Association thnt some Gladiolus have not bloomed out, or have wilted. If your gladiolus have not done as well as they should we will Inspect jour parden and try and help you solve your prob lems. Yours for better Glad blooms. Phone 1093. No obli gation. Gladiolus Association Wings of the Morning! . Good coffee man's morning friend warm and fragrant as her greeting. A tip to eoffee lovers. Whatever the method you use (Drip or Percolator), buy a coffee prepared for that method. It's important. Here's why. In a Drip Maker, boiling water drips only once through a coffee prepared to yield iu flavor quickly. In a Percolator, water passes many times through a coffee prepared to yield its flavor slowly. No coffee should try to serve both methods. "A Jack of all trades is master of none." There are two Schilling Coffees one for Drip one for Percolator. Tiuo Schilling Coffees Percolator Drip !
