Brush your hair UP and OUT every night and every morning! Use a clean hairbrush. To clean brushes and combs, use warm water and powdered borax. Lay the brush on its back in a sunny window. It will dry slowly and thoroughly. If you have a too-dry scalp, use an ointment to stimulate circulation. If your skin is too oily, rise a hair lotion. Leaser Syndicate.—'WKU Features.

INVENTION is declining in the United States. Between 1930 and 1943 patent applications went down about half at the Patent Office in Washington. To be very technical, the drop was 54% per 100,000 of the country’s population. If the total number of patents applied for annually nad varied a great deal in former years, this would not be so surprising, but it had not.

From 1900 to 1930 our number of patents increased each year, about like the population grew. Many people played at being inventors. And out of this wave of creative energy came useful things. Patent applications reached an all-time high between 1925 and 1930, and (population considered) patents actually granted broke a 50-year record, only a few months later.

Inventions INVENTION is the Make Jobs spark of creative thought. It was during America’s era of invention that the people of the United States rose up industrially and climbed to the top of the world, in wealth, in education, in health and in living standards. Inventions increase employment, boost wages and shorten working hours. Inventions create infinitely more jobs than they destroy.

F. O. Richey of Cleveland, Ohio, one of the nation’s distinguished patent attorneys, informed me recently that the history of invention divides naturally into four periods: (1) Before the 17th Century when there

were no patent laws and few inventions; (2) The 17th and 18th Centuries with poor patent laws poorly administered; (3) From early in the 19th Century to 1933, and (4) since. Eventful AMERICA’S era of inCentury .vention covered more than a century back of 1933, a period with Ben Franklin at one end and Thomas Edison at the other, in which Chief Justice John Marshall stood out for fair use of the patent system. Those were the years when inventions and their scientific development were profitable to men of intellect schools of engineering and chemistry flourished.

The Latin who called Necessity the mother of Invention was wrong. Necessity makes people improvise; Invention springs from love of achievement and hope of reward for good ideas. Among Europeans, the Swiss have the most freedom and lead in inventions. The Chinese, having no hope of reward, invent little. In America, our Patent Office safeguarded the reward in the 19th Century. In the last dozen years, however, the U. S. patent system has been the target of much verbal attack. Holders of patents are pointed at as if they had stolen something. Moreover the rewards, that come (by nature suddenly) to inventors, are twisted from them by taxation. What is the result ? Inventors are not inventing. Must America’s creative spark be quenched, or may her inventors be rewarded?
