KleuieiK number zero, aometliiiig new am rather startling to the tield of science, was Intro duced to a group of Chicago cbem Ists by I'rof. William Draper Hark Ins of the University of Chicago in a lecture at the Midland club. Infinitely more important than its anonymity Implies, the new substance ia described by Professor Harkius as '"the greatest scientific discovery of the present century." He predicted that it may change the whole Idea of the construction of matter. Sought 13 Years. Thirteen years ago the Chicago chemist predicted its existence- - His prognostications were verified only recently, when scientists at Cambridge university gave the new element a place among the select group of 92 companions. "Neutron" Is the element's inFor the past four formal name. months scientists have been working feverishly to get acquainted with the strange newcomer. Among other things, they have found that: "Neutrons," the minute atoms comprising a neutron, are millions of millions of times smaller than any other complete atom. If a thimble could be packed full Of neutrons, the contents would weigh more than thirty of the world's largest battleships. Filling thimbles with neutrons Is as Impossible as filling thimbles with battleships, however, as neutrons pass easily through any known substance. It Can't Be Weighed. Neutrons are different from any other atom, although they may be the substance out of which all other atoms are built; little neutron exist on earth, for It has no chemical effect on other substances. It can't be weighed, for it cannot be held In any vessel, and its existence is known only "through its works." Although It Is effective In building up and disintegrating other atoms, the effect of neutron upon earth, stars and sun Is still un- Vast E: j Areas Wanliiiigloii. of Laud The Pontine through history an a lireeiler ol malaria, are bfing In one of Italy's re.laliiMMl major ::. riut; projects.

"The Via Appla (Applan way), built by Appltts Claudius about UDC years It. C, starts from Porta San Sebastlano, the southern gate of Home, and leads toward Naples. For the first 05 miles it runs as straight as a taut string, until It reaches the town of Terraclna, where It passes under the cliff of Monte Sant' Angelo that overhangs the sen. Old Roman Monumenti. "When you leave the Kternnl city on this classic road, you pass at first along a wonderful array of old Itoman sepulchral monuments; then yon climb up the Alhan hills, extinct volcanoes of prehistoric times, and from there you gradually descend upon a great plain, some thirty miles from Home, known to history as the Pontine marshes. "On the left, you travel toward Terraclna, are the Leplne mountains, of gray limestone, that at sunset are veiled by that beautiful purple haze one sees so often reproduced on the background of the early Renaissance To the right is the paintings.

"At the extreme end a solitary mountain rises, to all appearances from the sea. It Is Mount CTreeo, the cornerstone of the Pontine marshes. This mount was an Island In bygone aires, as geologists have proved, and Homer eiirlit centuries before Christ, speaks of It In the 'Odyssey' as an Island, though probably It has already ceased to be so in his day. "The large quadrangle formed by the foothills of the Alhan volcanoes, by the I.epine mountains, by the wooded sand dunes of the coast, and by Mount CIrceo, measuring some ino.noo acres of extraor-linarllfertile land, embraces the entire area of the Pontine marshes.

Shortly before the sun came up, Kradrock Mathews left his sleeping family and followed a winding road leading to "His Glory". His glory was nothing less than an extra- dinary sunrise. He seated himself on a grassy slope. As he sat there with his canvas in hand, he looked intently toward the east, watching as if expecting that, suddenly and powerfully, the shapely mountain before him would pour out its depth of gold to float down the crystal :ream runnning toward him. It may be in a different sense maybe Why did he always seclude his dreams of ever becoming a great artist? If he should fail, he could keep his disappointment from them and perhaps would try again. If he succeeded, happy would be their lot. "Oh, God, let my fingers paint as my soul desires. I need your in spiration, because the season is changing and I need hurry." That was Kradock's prayer each morning as he sat before what seemed to him his destiny. He didn't pray long, nor did he say all he wished, for he was soon to see his sunrise. He looked up longingly. It was grow ing brighter. He saw the same pic ture he had seen for the last three months; yet it looked to him a more glorious picture. With every stroke he ubtered a prayer a prayer for help. "Give me something to be thankful for" Last year brought him nothing to be thankful for. This year he hoped to say to the world "I tried and I succeeded." The weeks went quickly. Fall had set in, and Kradrock had much to occupy his mind. During the day although his farming duties were heavy, he was always waiting planning. His glory was finished. To him is was a master pie?e. One afternoon found Kradock In the home of his school master. It was dear old Williams who had guided Kradock's hand many a time. It was he who had given Kradock a desire to paint. It didn't take him long to discover the genius for painting that was to make Kradock famous. With tears in his eves he turned to Kradock. "My son, it's great!! I've ever seen anything like it Sell why that isnt the question. It's a master piece, beyond doubt. You'll be famous. The world is waiting for your "Sunrise." "His Glory" did sell. Congratulations piled in from all sides. Kradock Mathews was famous. He was wanted here and there. Every one was hearing of his genius. His title was soon to take him away from the little farm. Out into tnc world where more would be exiected of him. He was due in the first of November, but city, the Thanksgiving morning we find Kradock and his little family kneeling before the sunrise. "We thank Thee." Even the smallest child knew the meaning of this phrase. It was indeed a day to be thankful in. They didn't lack food. They could be entertained by the best in the city. They could serve from the best of dishes. Yet the Mathews family stayed in their humble cottto age thank Him who can make all things great and from whom alll blessings come.
