DON'T HURRY HOME IN RAIN STORMS IS EYNON’S ADVICE It’s all very well to hurry home when one sees storm clouds gather in what the poets call the lowering sky, but look out for fallen trees and broken limbs, said Motor Venicles Commis- sioner Benj. G. Eynon, this week. Since July 1 some extraordinarily Only official, authorized scenes ever taken; at the Mishler, all this week. Seven reels of motion pictures taken by the sovereign and benevolent con- cession of His Holiness, by the Graphic institute, San Marco, Rome, will be screened for the first time in Altoona all this week. Showings are at 2:30 4:00, 7:30 and 9:00 P. M. These offi- cial and only authorized motion pic- tures are entitled His Holiness, Pope Pius XI. This picturization breaks new ground in history as it is a distinct depart- ure from precedent and tradition. Nev- er previously has a Pope of Rome en- tered into such a procedure of appear- ing throughout seven thousand feet of motion pictures so that the mill- ions of Catholics throughout the en- tire world may have an opportunity to parts of Pennsylvania and reports by ber dealing with costly smashups that were brought about when a speeding heavy storms have occurred in various limb.

WATER A PRIME NECESSITY OF LIFE (By John Connelly) Water is one of the prime necessities of life, and that all should be provi- ded with a pure supply is no means the least important of health require- ments. It is a vital element of our food and assists in building up our tissues, of which it constitutes one hundred in each 150 parts. It preserves the fluidi- ty of the blood, aids in.the excretion of effete matter, ana assists in main- taining our bodies at a uniform tem- perature under varying conditions of heat. It is essential for drinking purposes for cooking and for personal and household cleanliness. By the commu- nity at large it is required for public baths, for water closets, for flusing sewers, for the cleansing of streets, for use of animals, and for manufacturing and various other purposes. It is im- portant, therefore, that the supply should be plentiful as well as pure. Springs, which are outflows of wa- i ter from the earth, are divided into | two classes, surface springs and deep springs. The former are found mostly on the face of slopes. Their presence i dependent upon teh fact that at th point the impervious straum, say of clay ,which supports the sub-soil water rises to the surface and thus opposes a barrier to its onward progress. Deep Springs, on the other hand, are due to the presence of a fissure in the imper- vious stratum, which enables the water below it to rise to the surface. The fact that the suriace springs are lia- ble to become dry during long inter- vals between rails, while deep springs are nearly always permanent, will thus be easily understood. Geologists observe these points in search for minerals, and our state health officers are educating the pub- lic to the dangers of pollution in var- ious drinking water supplies over the state.
