Dances
Christmas eve was celebrated by the
young people of the "I Don't Knew
club" with a dance given in the ElkB'
club Wednesday night which was one
of the most elaborate affairs yet given
by the young people pf El Paso. The
ball room was. a mass of Christmas
foliage with holly wreaths and Christ-
mas bells adding the holiday season
touch to the decorations. In the cor-
ners of the ballroom were fraternity
symbols illuminated by electric lights.
The programs were beautiful little af-
fairs with leather covers embossed In
the symbol of the club. On each page
of the program were fraternity sym-
bols embossed in gold the Elks the
K. D. E. the Omega Phi the O. XX. IC
and the Saxons. A rather novel fea-
ture for the dance was that all the
programs for both girls and boys
were filled out in advance by the en-
tertainment committee so that every
guest had every dance taken before the
programs were distributed. Several
moonlight dances were attractive fea-
tures. An orchestra of nine pieces
played the dance numbers. Punch was
served between the dances and a mid-
night lunch of coffee sandwiches
salad and ice cream and cake was
served.
For place cards dainty booklets
"How to Behave at a Banquet" which
were a part of the fancy napkins were
used. Frank Ross was chairman of th.
entertainment committee and In charge
at the affair and toasts were given by
Archie Vaughan C. Smith and Robert

BISMUTH AXD FIRE PRODUCTION.
Bismuth is a useful metal of many
strange qualities used largely In the
making of fusible plugs for fire pro-
tection. It has such a low melting
point that It is used as plugs in auto-
matic sprinklers these melting and re-
leasing the water when subjected to a
comparatively small amount of heat.
Bismuth is also the basis for type
metals partly because it expends 2.3
In volume as it solidifies and partly
because of its low melting point which
is 578 degrees Fahrenheit. Its alloys
with tin lead and cadium melt as
low as 140 or as high as 201 degrees
Fahrenheit. Although a very valuable
metal it is considered a by-product as
It is extracted from ores which con-
tain gold silver or lead. A peculiarity
of bismuth Is that Instead of being at
tracted by a magnet. It is repelled. It
Is a very poor heat conductor having
but one-fiftieth of the conductivity of
silver.
Bolivia produces more bismuth than
any other country in the world. The
United States annually uses 280000
pounds of which but 80000 pounds are
produced in this country. Nearly all
of the rest Is imported from Bolivia

Cured His RUPTURE
I was badly ruptured while lifting a
trunk several years ago. Doctors said
my only hope of cure was an operation.
Trusses did me no good. Finally I got
hold of something that quickly and
completely cured me. Tears have
passed and the rupture has never re-
turned although I am doing hard work
as a carpenter. There was no opera-
tion no lost time no trouble. I have
nothing to sell 'but will give full in-
formation about how you may find a
complete cure without operation if you
write to me. Eugene M. Pullen Carpen-
ter 1107 Marcellus Avenue Manasquan
N. J. Better cut out this notice and
show it to any others who are rup-
tured you may save a life or at least
stop the misery of rupture and the
worry and danger of an operation.
