Wonderful Clock Made
by Italian Artificer
A clock so complicated that no
watchmaker alive could possibly under :
stand its workings has been completed
by a patient man named Co>tnnzo Uen-
v\ of Rimini, Italy, after two years of
assiduous attention. The 30-bour clock,
almost entirely made of bamboo anil
built in the form of the Fascist em-
blem, is over 3 foot high. Resides
marking the hour, the minute and the
second, this wonderful timepiece also
shows the phases of the moon, the
day of the week, the month and the
day of the month. Resides, here are
some more extravagances: When the
clock strikes, a small flag with pic-
tures of the king and II Duee appears
and the chimes play “Giovinezza,” the
Fascist hymn. When these are over a
small mortar on the top of the clock
fires a salvo and a tiny tricolor makes
mother appearance. Tnventor Renzl
assured school children that try ns he
might he couldn’t get the contrivance
to do home lessons.
Rock Gardens
A woman who had fallen prey to
the mania for rock gardens had con-
structed what she regarded a most
artistic example of the prevailing fad.
The flag paths, concrete pedestal sur-
mounted with sun dial, flowers plant-
ed among the rocks and all the other
accessories presumably necessary to
fonti the complete whole. The wom-
an was contemplating her finished
work with much satisfaction when a
teamster pulled up to the curb and
called out: “Say, missus, would you
like to have them there rocks hauled
away? I’ll do it cheap for ye!”
MELAKCHOLY STATE
SOLVED BY DOCTOR
Due to Lack of Bromine in
B!ood, He Declares.
Berlin, Germany,—Melancholy, that
mental slate which so far has baffled
psychiatrists, is due simply to lack of
bromine in the blood, according to an
astounding statement which the noted
specialist for internal diseases, I'rof.
Hermann Zondek, recently made be-
fore the medical society here.
Professor /.ondok. who was St rese-
nt turn's physician, lately has studied
the chemical composition of the blood
of mentally diseased patients. In
every case, he found that whenever
the bromine percentage in the Wood
fell below average, symptoms of melan-
choly wore detected.
On the strength of this discovery,
Professor Zondek undertook to cure
patients afflicted with melancholy by
injecting small quantities of bromine
into their Wood. This cure, he an-
nounced, proved very efficient.
Melancholy, a frequent mental af-
fliction, is also termed "circular in-
sanity" because the patient’s symp-
toms form a cycle, in which periods
of apathy and despair alternate with
a normal and even abnormally joyous
mood.
Melancholia Is known ns a more
benign form of mental disease than
dementia and paranoia, which con-
stitute other important groups of men-
tal ailments.
While these latter forms of insanity
nre usually Incurable and require con-
tinual treatment in institutions, melan-
cholia usually Improved under treat-
ment so much that even return to
mental normalcy Is often attainable,
although the possibility of a relapse
remains even in successful cases.
The discovery of Zondek has led
psychiatrists to hope that from now
on a more effective and radical treat-
ment than that hitherto applied will
be available.

Scientista Study Python
Snakes are cold-blooded animals,
both traditionally and by actual scien-
tific measurement’s, always appreci-
ably chillier than their surounillngs;
yet a female, python lu the National
Zoological park, at Washington, that
laid a dutch of eggs and tried to
hatch them literally warmed up to her
maternal task by becoming measurably
warmer than her environment. These
observations were reported before the
meeting of the National Academy of
Sciences, by Hr. Francis G. benedict,
and associates, of the Carnegie institu-
tion, of Washington. An incubating
python In captivity Is such a rare
phenomenon that special studies with
electrical heat-recording Instruments
were considered desirable when the
Washington python provided the op-
portunity.

Scotland Get* High Cliffs
A. Campbell Blair has bequeathed
to Scotland the southern portion of
the headland of Ardmennoch, known
ns the Rirg. The Burg cliffs, exposed
to the Atlantic, rise 1,200 feet from
the sea, and provide sanctuary for
many sea birds. The cliffs contain
many caves. Including the Mackinnon
cave, once visited by Doctor Johnson.
On the Burg is also to be seen the
famous MacCulloeh tree, one of the
most ancient fossil trees in existence.
Airway Lighting Has
Become Exact Science
Chicago. — Illumination engineers
have conquered numerous unique prob-
lems in the lighting of airways over
which the mail-passenger planes now
fly 40,000 miles nightly.
At present there are four classes of
lighting equipment for aviation: Light-
ing at terminals, lighting at emer-
gency fields, lighting between emer-
gency fields—commonly referred to as
beacon lighting, and course markers—
usually called "blinkers."
The average cost of all these forms
of light Is 8315 a mile. There are
about 18,000 miles of airways lighted
in the United States. Airway improve-
ment. development and lighting is an
activity of the Department of Com-
merce.
The little blinkers, which in some
places mark the course at three-mile
Intervals, cost 8750 each, while the 24-
inch revolving beacons between emer-
gency landing fields represent an out-
lay of $2,000 each.
The expense of lighting the emer-
gency fields themselves averages about
$5,000 each.
Basilica Honors St. Patrick
To honor St. Patrick’s purgatory In
Lough Derg, Irish Free State, the new
church on the isle where St. Patrick
retired 1,400 years ago to pray and do
penance, has been raised by the pope
to the dignity of a minor basilica, the
first in the British isles. Three thou-
sand Irish men and women recently
gathered at the edifice on the beauti-
ful island to celebrate pontifical high
mass.
Talk About the “Eats
Camp cooking is a highly artistic
talent that can only be devoloped
through practice and experience, says
a writer in Field and Stream. This
sage camper lists several rule, to fol-
low in preparing the meal excellent
in camp.
"Let one man do it. Don’t take
turns. Don't hold conferences. Let
one man do it, and if lie doesn’t do it
right, hang him, quarter him, toss him
in the lake—but don’t give him any
advice. An amateur cook Is more tem-
peramental than nn opera singer of
long press-agent experience. Meddling
simply confuses him and cramps
whatever style he may have.
"Let the camper follow some rules:
Never bake biscuits if you can carry
bread. Camp biscuits are not nearly
so good ns ordinary bread. They
merely sound better.
"Carry fresh potatoes. The same
goes for onions. Desiccated carrots
and corn and all sorts of soup stocks
nre ns good ns the fresh kind. I be-
lieve they nre better.
"Don’t believe that n square of
chocolate Is worth a pound of steak.
Or that a malted-milk tablet is worth
n peck of potatoes. Don't rely on
calories to keep you alive and happy.
Food supplies based on calories may
keep you alive. They’ll not keep you
happy. You aren’t taking your vaca-
tion merely to he kept alive. On the
second day out you can sell n big,
juicy corned-beef sandwich to the‘con-
densed food’ man for $50 plus Ills
shirt nnd boots."
Soviet Plans Olympiad
Five-Year Plan Fete
Moscow.—The Olympic games In Cal-
ifornia will be rivaled by a Red
‘‘Spartnklad’’ In Moscow early In Au-
gust to which labor sports organiza-
tions all over the world nre being In-
vited.
Ten thousand foreign sportsmen aro
being expected by the National f'oun-
cll of Physical Culture. The Soviet
participants will reach 50,000.
A speclnl stndlum, with a seating ca-
pacity of 120,000, must be built be-
fore August to accommodate the Spar-
tnklnd.
This International sports festival Is
being summoned to celebrate th£
achievement of the flee year plan In
four years. There will 1)4- a great deal
of demonstrating nnd mass pageantry
to drive home the magnitude of So-
viet Industrial nnd cultural progress
nnd the alleged collapse of capitalist
economy through the world.
Sunshade, for Tree.
In Germany, arborists are providing
speclnll.v made sunshades for the pro-
tection of saplings. They arc matle of
closely woven netting on a wooden
framework. The (hades nre placed on
the south side of a group of young
trees to guard them from the scorch-
ing rays of the noonday sun. The
trees nre said to have shown unusual-
ly rapid growth since the new device
tins been put Into use.

I. Israel in Straitened Circumstances
(vv 1-12).
1. Going out of the land of Egypt
(18:18). The tenth stroke from the
strong hand of the Almighty made
I'huruoh willing to let Israel go. The
tenth turn of the screw of Omnipo-
tence brought him to time. The Isra-
elites weut out from Egypt on their
way to the promised land with a high
hand. The way of the wilderness was
a longer route, but It had many val-
uable lessons for them. Ity this way
they escaped the experiences of war
which would have come to them at
the hand of the Philistines, hut they
learned the crookedness and perverse-
ness of their own hearts (Deut. 8:12).
2. Hemmed In (vv. 1-3). At the
Lord's direction they turned from their
I first course and were made to taco a
great difficulty. The Ited sea w as be-
fore them and mountains on either
side. However, they should have been
encouraged because the Lord weltl he
fore them by day In a pillar of cloud
to lead the way, and by night in a
pillar of fire to give them light. He
took not away the pillar of cloud by
day, nor the pillar of fire by night
(13:21, 22).
3. Pursued by I’haraoh (vv. 4-12).
The stricken Egyptians had now re-
covered from their sorrow, and per
ceivlng the straitened circumstances
of the Israelites they interpreted this
to mean that Moses was unable to lead
them out of their difficulty. Therefore
they went In pursuit, hoping yet to
prevent their leaving the country.
II. The Miraculous Escape of the
Israelites (vv. 13-22).
There seems to have been a two-
fold object In leading them In to this |
particular place.
1. To strengthen the faith of the
people. To be delivered from such
circumstances would Impress upon
them anew the reality of the love and
power of God. The people, as usual,
displayed tlielr unbelief, and even cen-
sured Muses for leading them out of
Egypt Moses replied to their mur
murs by saying. “Fear ye not, stand
still and see the salvation of the
Lord.” Standing still In such a trial
is faith taking hold on God's promises.
God said, “Wherefore crlest thou unto
me? Speak unto the children of Israel
that they go forward.” Having had
his definite promise, to have prayed
l(4nger would have been unbelief. They
were to go forward a step at a time
without raising any question ns to the
outcome, for from the source from
which came the command, came the
power to obey. The presence of the
Lord was adapted to their needs as
they went forward. When the situa-
tion was such that the Lord's leader-
ship was not necessary, the cloud
passed to tho rear and held the enemy
at bay. The presence of God had a
double effect—darkness and confushm
to the enemy, and light anil guidance
to his people.
2. To lay a snare for the overthrow
of the Egyptians. Those who will not
heed the warning Judgments of God
mny be allowed to go to tlielr destruc-
tion under the presumption that the
Almighty Is helping them,
III. The Overthrow of the Egyptians
(vv. 23-27).
Having seen the Israelites go across
the sea dryshod, Pharaoh nnd his peo-
ple madly pursued them. They Insane-
ly thought that they In tlielr unbelief
could follow In the wake of God’s clill
dren. The T.ord looked forth from
the cloud and wrought confusion
among the Egyptians. He not only
looked upon them but took off tlielr
chariot wheels which caused them to
realize that God was fighting against
them. He then directed Moses to
stretch forth his rod and bring destruc
thin upon the Egyptians.
IV. The Song of Triumph (15:1-21).
Standing on the other shore of the
Red sea they could fittingly sing tin-
song of triumph because of their mi-
raculous deliverance nnd the over-
whelming detent of the Egyptians,
They attributed It nil to God. In a
glad coming day, a similar but much
lurger company will sing the same
song with nn Important addition, name-
ly, the “Song of the Lamb” (Rev.
15:3).

GEMS OF THOUGHT
The question of duty Is one of the
most serious. On that pivot swings
both usefulness and destiny.
...
We spend too much time ringing the
doorbells of earth, ami not enough the
doorbell of heaven.—Quoted by Hanna.
...
The purpose firm Is equal to the
deed. Who does the best his circum-
stance allows, does well, acts nobly.
Angels could do no more.—Young.

Worry You
You can still keep money in the bank and
draw it out when you wish by going to the bank
in person and making out a receipt, and without
having to pay any tax.
There is no tax on receipts, but you can
draw your money with one just the same as
with a check, provided, of course, that the de-
positor presents the receipt himself. Receipts
cannot be made payable to others.
Remember, the bank is still the safest place
for money. Don’t take chances by carrying
around a large sum with you, and don’t tempt
thieves and burglars by hiding money around
your home
The banks are cooperating with their pat-
rons in every way they can, They have gone
to the expense of having the receipts printed in
order that customers need not be taxed two
cents every time they wish to draw money.

While monsters muddied
PENNSYLVANIA waters
THE Bradford-Allegany crude oil which Sinclair refines
* into Sinclair Pennsylvania Motor Oil was already ages
old when monsters like these came into being in Pennsyl-
vania. Much of Nature’s priceless mellowing and filter-
ing period had already passed even then—for Bradford-
Allegany crude was formed in the still-earlier Devonian
Age, that wonderful age in earth’s history when oil-
forming conditions were most perfect. Before making it
into Sinclair Pennsylvania Motor Oil, Sinclair de-waxes
Bradford-Allegany crude and frees it from non-lubricat-
ing petroleum jelly at as low as 60° F. below zero. Ask
to have your oil changed to Sinclair Pennsylvania,
made 100% from the costliest Pennsylvania grade crude.
