After pas sing through a bush over half a mile in length, they came to a clearing, where they got the full force of the blinding blizzard, losing their way. The lads travelled for several hours, Fortunately, they finally sighted a building, and made their way to it. It proved to be a farmhouse located several miles from where the lads started out, The boys |. were suffering from exhaustion and exposure, but rapidly recovered af- ter reaching the house.

SAY NITRO-GLYCERINE MEANT FOR THE NON-UNION MINES Washington, Pa., Jan, 27--What State police believe to be a plot to use violence at non-union camps in this district, has been unearthed, officers elaim, by the discovery of more than thirty gallons of nitro glycerine in a truck being driven Ire mthis county to West Virgin- a. The nitro was stolen, it was al- leged from the Wheeling Steel Cor- poration by Italian, Sam Ciotti, ali- as Sam Querino, now in jail at Wheeling and driven to a point in the coal fields about six milse north of this city, before the arrest of Ciotti, who told where the explosive was stored.

G, Pen- Dr, Penfield declared as the re- sult of his investigations that if a part of the brain has been lacer- ated or infected, it is better to re- move the infected part than to leave it in the skull and treat it. Hopkins surgeons declare this the most important recent advance in € surgery, I f a part of the brain is lacerot- ed," he declaredd, "it cannot be: of any service whether it is removed Young!

Leaving inured parts in the skull was fréquently responsible for epilepsy, he pointed out, *The brain is considerably oyer- wired," he saidd. "By that I mean many connections can be re- moved without preventing com- munications between the various parts. Most bodily movements are directed from the opopsite side of the brain. "Man is the only creature in which the brain functions have attained highly specialized loca- tions, For instance, the frontal lobes (roughly parts in front of) the temples) do not appear in ape! and appear only to a slight degre in backward races." In answering the question what the frontal lobes represented, Dr. Penfield said that they "housed" various refinements and *proprie- ties of modern civilization. The wife of a man both of whose fron- tal lobes were diseased complain- ed that he "had forogtter to be a gentleman." He did nor remem- ber to perform courteously, and his table manners were seriously affected. In such a case, Dr. Penfield said, it was likely that the rest of the brain would pick up the functions which had been lost. This was easier, he declared, when the part removed or injured was one which had been added late in the scale of development. Fractures of the skull are" con- stantly increasing in numSBer, he sald, due to the evergrowing toll of automobile accidents. Most fractures are attributable to this cause, he believes. The average "prospect" is less interested in the trend toward FOR HIS WAR TALK Attacked in the House By Member of Naval Committee BR ---- Washington, Jan. 26.--Rear-Ad- miral Plunkett, Commandant of the Brooklyn Navy Yard, whose recent remarks regarding the possibility of war inferentially' were replied to at the White House, was attacked and defended today on the floor of the House. Leading the attack was Represen- tative McClintick (Democrat, Okla- homa), a member of the Naval Com- mittee, who said it was "a pitiful United States feels that it is neces- sary to deny statements, expressed by a man of such high rank as Ad- miral Plunkett, that the country should prepare for war." Representative Black (a New York Democrat) defended Plunkett, and assailed what he termed "the unfair view expressed at the White House." McClintick charged that high navy officers play an important role in guiding the United States foreign policy, and said that such" officers should be removed, Black proceeded to charge that foreign policy was often directed by Secretary of Commerce Hoover, and denied that Plunkett's purpose cither was in the interest of foreign policy or increased appropriations for naval construction. "Such idiotic, asini ine outbursts," MeClintick said, "put this nation in bad repute with other nations of the world, and instead of increasing our commerce with friendly nations this Admiral's prophecy has the effect of curtailing and factory trade relations." MEXICO STANDS THIRD IN PRODUCTION OF OIL Mexico City, Jan, 26.--As a re- sult of what according to the Min- istry of Industry, Commerce and Labor here, has been a deliberate restriction of production by the large petroleum companies as a protest against the oll laws, Mexi- co, after holding second place among petroleum-producing cdun- tries for nine years, fell in 1927 to third place. In a statement given out by the Ministry today, Mexican oil produc- tion during 1927 is given as 64 - 119,084 barrels.
