Armistice Day wai set aside to commemorate yearly what was hoped might prove to be the last of armed strifi be tween nations. Armistice Day in 1940 is shad owed by the clouds of another great w ar; its significance is emphasised by realities of de struction, bringing to men of good will a deeper realisation of the blessings of Peace and the world’s need of regaining It. 800TN0LD SRUIIIG8 BAnH rOM NOli IIM lOUTHOLO, SUFFOU COUNTY, H, Y. 4 yoiUAL wtnTunow oruAraD «oukk Ml mi HIUNT W I I I ------------- h a r r y h . rkbvb Attorney and Oounaelor a t I*w OREENPORT, N.

Dodga • Plynmatk PHILIP WECKESSER RESTAURANT BAR and GRILL Dinner—12 to 1 Main St. Tel. 3992 Southold If you have a question to ask the scientists, mail It to the New York Press Association, The Castle, Syra cuse, N. V. The Science Board of the Radio Workshop at Syracuse University will answer each week in The Long Island Traveler those questions considered most interest ing and timely. QUESTION 1. If m atter could be converted into energy, how much energy would be available from a one cent piece? ANSWER. Assuming the mass of a one cent piece to be three grams, about 64,500,000,000,000 calories of heat would be available if that mass were converted into energy. This figure, however, does not mean much to a person because the number is too large. To give a bet ter idea of the energy available, one can say that this amount of heat is about the same as one would obtain from burning 9,000 tons of good an thracite coal.—Dr. William R. Fred- erickson, physicist. QUESTION 2. Has the w ar in Europe affected the forests? ANSWER. Yes, very much. War always means a destruction of many of the l>eautiful forests along the battle fronts. In the first World war, about 1,625,000 acres of French for ests were destroyed. No estimate as yet has been made of the damage done in the present World war. We do know that many roadside and other trees, however, have been sacrificed for supplying lumber and other forms- of tim ber products in England and Scotland. —Prof. Nelson Brown, forester. QUESTION 3, What is the dif ference between live steam and or dinary steam? ANSWER. The term ordinary steam applies to steam coming out of a tea-kettle, to use a fam iliar ex ample. Live steam does not have very much significance so far as the scientist is concerned. Some indus trial men speak of live steam as steam that has never been used as it comes from generators of some type. However, the better term s to use are dry steam and saturated steam. For example, if we took the steam from a tea-kettle and then passed it through a tube at a higher tem perature, we would call that dry steam and that is the type of staam that is used in large heating plants like the one here at Syracuse Uni versity.—Dr. Albert L. Elder, chem ist. QUESTION 4. W hat I s m eant by the fourth dimension? This term is often used in higher mathematics and I wonder w hat mathematicians mean when they use it. ANSWER, (jne thinks of space as having three dimensions, length, width, and height, but whenever one thinks about an object th a t can be moved one always uses four dimen sions, three for space and one for time. An object has a certain posi tion, east and west, north and south, up and down, at a certain time. At another time it has a different po sition. Now in ordinary problems we can think of space and tbne as separate but in the relativity theory and rel- ativistic mechanics, space and time are so inter-related that we cannot think of them separately and hence in the relativity ^eo ry we speak of a fourth dimension which we call the time space. — Dr. Frederickson. QUESTION 5. Would you consid er carbon dioxide a colorless, odor less, and tasteless gas? ANSWER. Carbon dioxide is def initely colorless and odorless. When carbon dioxide dissolves in w ater it forms carbonic acid and it is an acid and has an aeid taste to most per sons although I understand that there are some persons who cannot detect the taste of carbon dioxide in a dilute solution. — Dr. Elder. QUESTION 6. If rain fell from a cloud in a continuous stream like a river, everyone under it would be drowned. However, rain faHs in drops. Why? ANSWER. All air contains invisi ble w ater vapor. No m atter how dry it may appear to be, there is a great deal of this vapor in the air. In or der to have this vapor condense in the form of rain drops, there must be microscopic dust particles around which the w ater vapor can condense. Generally, that condensation takes place during upward movements of air. 'nie raindrops either stay at the same level or gradually rise, increas ing in size until they reach the point where they fall, by gravity, to the earth as raindrcvs. Ih e upward current wiU hold the raindrop approximately at the same level until its mass is large enough to overcome the upward piub of the air, at which time it begins to rain. — Dr. Btdman Poole, geographer. QUBSnON 7. Can fat be extracted from coffee grounds? AN8WKR. An Italian company la sakl to be extraeting a fat from coffee grounds. It is claimed that the process may be of oommerctaJ inyortapce.

HORTON The sad word reached the corres pondent that William A Horton of Brooklyn, passed away October 29th, in the Brooklyn Hospital after an illness of seven weeks at the age of 64 years. Mr. Horton had been a civic leader in Brooklyn for many years and during, the World War period was a captain in the police reserves.

He was also activQ in the Flatbush Chamber of Commerce and the Sixth Avenue \L\ Association. Mr. Hor- Jon was a retired accountant and Had been w ith the American Thread Co., 40 years before retiring a year ago. Ijie was descended from an old Long Island family which settled in Southold 300 y ears ago. He was the son of A lbert A lbertus Horton. Many years Mr. Horton had the pleasure of spending his vacations at the cor respondents home in Southold and was endeared to eastern Long Is land. The deceased is survived by his widow, two daughters and two grandchildren. REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS d h b ; E M Russell to D 8 Frederick, lots 116, in.

One of the main complaints against velveteens and corduroys is that they catch eveiT speck of dust and lint that s in the air and so require end less brushing. To hasten the brush ing process — and lessen exaspera- tion — use a damp clothes brush or a rubber sponge. In the w inter time, open the window and dip the brush or a rubber sponge in the snow on the window sill. That gives just the right amount of moisture. Brush the inside of the dress as well as tlie outside, to prevent par ticles of dead skin and powder from working through the pile and giving the m aterial a dull dusty look. Wihen the elbows or the seat of the skirt begin to show signs of m at ting, it’s time to do a little job of steaming. Turn the dress on the wrong side, cover the m atted spot with a ,damp light-w eight cloth (cheesecloth is good), and just light ly touch the iron to the pressing cloth, thus forcing the steam into the fabric underneath. Do not hold the iron on the pressing cloth until it is dry. Turn the m aterial to the right side and brush the nap down and then up again, to raise it. Velveteen or cordUroy may be washed successfully if the following directions are followed: w et the whole garment in lukewarm mild soapsuds, and then lay it on a flat surface and scrub it gently with a soft brush. Work quickly, w ith wide sweeps of the brush. Rinse the gar m ent well in several changes of lukewarm w ater and roll it in towels to rem ove- the excess moisture. Shake it out immediately and hang it on a padded hanger to dry. Brush it frequently as it dries. Give all spots and stains special treatm ent before laundering a gar m ent. Test a sample of the m aterial first for color fastness and shrink age, and wash all garments before they become too soiled. DeFRlEST FUNERAL HOME Youngs Av«., Southold • DAVID I. Da PRIEST, Director Tel. 3850 PONTIAC SALES AT RECORD HIGH Chicago, ni. — Pontiac Motor Divi- ston completed the first 20 days of Oc tober with the largest number of car deUveries for that period in its history and the largest bank of unfilled orders for any .month of any year, acooiding to D. U. Bathrlck, vice president and general sales manager who is in Chic ago for the <qi)ening of the Auto Show. ToUl deliveries for the first 30 days of OctOber were 16,615 compared to 10,279 for the same period last year, an Inorwse of 61.6%. H ie gam over the first 20 days of Septem ber .according to Bathrtek, was 81.9%. biventories of new cars in dealers’ stock actually went down, but steps have been taken to push productioa to an even higher level. Bathrick said. Unfilled orders reached the unprece dented figure of 21,399. the highest in the company’s history. Ihdlcatlm s point to a 26,000 oar month for October which will beat all previous Octobers, and will be weU ahead of gains over last year’s to pro duce the 300,000 car mark for Ponti ac In the 1941 model year.
