Any new conquests must commence where the air leaves off. and the only thing lacking is an explosive powerful enough to which speed, if aimed at the zenith, it would keep right on going. We would then need some means of retarding and accelerating its motion after interstellar space was reached." Dr. Gil believes that science will be equal to the task of inventing a means of absorbing the initial shock so that the occupants could stand 1. "We have in a very few years developed explosives enabling us to give a projectile a muzzle velocity of 3,900 feet per second,” says Dr. Gil. The Argentine scientist then takes up the question of the much-mooted absolute cold of the outer space, calculated to be more than 200 degrees below zero, centigrade. “If anything is going to bother the fyers,” he says, “it will be the heat. Once clear of the earth’s shadow, they will travel in eternal sunlight, and this unvarying energy, concentrated, from a space three feet square, upon a quart of water will make it boil in a very short time.” The first venturesome spacionauts do- not-realty want to reach the moon i explains Dr. Gil. They merely want to convert themselves into a satellite and travel in an orbit around the moon, say, at a distance of 1,500 miles from its surface and so make the necessary observations of that side of the moon that has never been seen by earthmen. By possessing means of accelerating hheir sp- 4 ed. they could widen their orbit until they came within the field of the earth’s attraction. The shock of landing would hardly be worse than that of starting, “As for the final problem, that of food,” concluded Dr. Gil, “it depends on the season. It they are just ordinary gourmands, any rotisserie in Buenos Aires can fix them up.” o New Jewish National Home Will Have Its Own System Os Money Geneva, (United Press) —The new Jewish national home of Palestine is soo- to have a new currency all of its own, according to the International Zionist organization which maintains its headquarters here. Owing to the fact that the state is under English mandate^ for the time being, the new currency will have as its basic unit a "dinar” with the same value as the English pound. The technical commission which is preparing the new currency has decided that the tenth part of the dinar, which will be equivalent to two shillings will be known as the ‘shekel” in Hebrew or the “Miskal” in Arabic. Thftr e will also be a half-shekel or half-miskal. which will have the value o£ one shilling, while the quarter of shekel or six-pence will be known as the “darkmon", in Hebrew and the , “dirhem" in Arabic.

Their Color Glands Are Normal and Pigment Keeps Hair Nice Shade and Color ADVISE TO READERS IF TURNING GRAY A Simple Home Tonic Starts Youthful Color Returning. Everyone knows if their color glands and hair roots are active and normal they will continue indefinitely to have rich, natural colored hair entirely free of gray, or off-colored locks, so why use uyes or tints? A doctor several years ago asked himself this question: “If with certain medicines I can stimulate my patient’s other organs, why not rub a stimulating tonic into the scalp that will revive, strengthen and tone up these inactive glands so that nature in her own inimitable way will resume putting plenty of pigment Into the hair tubes? Surely the hair will then again resume its original shade and color regardless of the users age or previous condition of their hair. Remarkable Discovery He didn't want an artificial dye or tint and it of course must be harmless and something that could be used for years and years without the slightest injury to hair or scalp. Just like a tonic that builds up a person’s strength after some long wasting ill-

While 500,000 service men have been treated in Veteran bureau hospitals since 1919, only 24,915 were still confined in Institutions on June 30, General Hines said, pointing out this was the smallest number of men seeking treatment for war ullments during the last two years. The report showed that insanity has been the moat terrible uftermath of the war. There were 12,220 patients in neuropsychiatric wards, compared with 7,308 in tuberculosis beds and 6,387 confined for general medical and surgical treatments. Federal insurance amounting to J2,781,587,008 is now being carried by 553,660 veterans, Gen. Hines said. Death compensation awards were being paid to beneficiaries of 78,881 veterans on June, the value of these awards totaling $2,132,015. On June 30, the total claims filed for benefits under the World War Adjusted Compensation Act were 3,242,188, for which service certificates with a face value of $3,102,001,000 were issued. - o Mr. Buckner of the Bluffton Banner covered the game here last night and called on newspaper friends.
