J' Milk j |how=== QUICK IS WINK ANSWERED IIY rilOTQS Of THE EYES.? four thousand photographs a second, with exposures ranging from ! t-100,(XK)ih to 1-0W.000th of a secI ond, have been made at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology by means of a unique electrical clr| cult which produces light of great Intensity, says a writer In Literary 1 Digest. The Instantaneous Hash of this light Is many times more brilliant than sunlight. This new circuit, which employs either mercury arc tubes or sparl< plugs, was developed by ITof. Harold K. Ihlgerton and Kennelb J. (Jerinesbaiisen, In research on methods of highspeed photography. ? "The device has already been used to make striking photographs in which fainllirtr Tilings aro ^hown in astonishing new forms." says a press release from the institute's newft Arrviee. "The splash of a drop of milk on a hard surfnee is revealed In the shape of a miniature crown tipped with Infinitesimal pearl-like drops. "The question, 'How quick Is quick as a wink?' was answered by photographs of the human eye which show that a wink occurs In approximately Qne-.fortleth of a second. The photographic image recorded at the Instant of impact between a golf club and ball shows clearly the momentary nattering of the latter at the point of contact" How Perforated Postage Stamps Came to Be Used When stamps are Issued without any holes or perforations between them, they are said to be Imperforate. At first, of course, all stamps were imperforate. and even today they are occasionally Issued this way. Do you know how perforation came to be used? Have you ever seen those little wheels with teeth like a miniature buz/, saw and lixed fo a handle which ladies used years ago to mark off dress patterns? According to one story, an enterprising son t hern gentleman hecame tired of cutting stamps apart with scissors ami on a sudden inspiration he ' ieked up his wife's pattern marker and ran it down the rtfxvs between the stamps, lie found that they would then tear apart easily. The idea spread until governments took It np. Today we llnd most stamps perforated for us. v<J4ow Coffee I* Harvested Coffee Is picked by men. women and children who carry baskets into which they put the fruit. When tDo baskets nre full the coffee is dumped In heaps, then loaded on wagons and carted to the drying stations. After the beans j are thoroughly washed they are spread in the sun to dry. dther In large shallow wooden trays, or on modern terraced concrete drying yards. Rvery morning after the dew lias disappeared the co(Tee is raked over to insure n thorough sunning. After (he coffee has been properly dried 01 "cured." It Is repeatedly run through hulling and fanning machines, which clean It and remove Hie tough hull. Then the coffee is ready for shipment. How Trees Throw Off Moisture , The amount of moisture thrown out j by a large tree daily depends largely on the type of tree, the number of' leaves and the situation. A birch tree with 'joo.ono leaves, standing perfectly free, would throw off about 10."? gallons of water on a hot. dry day and about lf> gallons on a day of average moisture. A tree, of course, has to replace through its roots the moisture thrown ofT by Its leaves, and this gives an Idea of the daily requirements In water of a large tree with approximately the number of leaves mentioned.

A woman witness testified that hundreds of men who formerly earned $5 and $6 per day in the Aluminum Company of America's plant at.

The Credit Bureau keeps 'he merchants informed at all times as to just how you pay your bills. I A This system is built on constructive fines. It makes the poor, but honest man's credit as good as that of the rich. It also prevents the man who does not pay his bills from getting credit. If you have a good credit record, your trade is valuable and any merchant is glad to aecomo- I date you. | CREDIT IS A MATTER OF TRUST, YOUR HONOR IS INVOLVED It is granted you on a promise to pay, I you cannot afford to break that promise. The merchant can better afford to lose the bill than you can afford not to pay it. Don't blame the merchant if you are refused credit. You and you alone are to blame, for you are refused on your record and you built that record yourself. Camden Credit Bureau J
