Laboratory on Mount Evans Built to Solve Mystery of Great Power Supply On lonely Mt. Evans, a 14,000-foo- t peak near Denver, Colo, stands the only laboratory of its kind. It was erected recently to study the mysterious cosmic rays which pelt the earth like bullets. The source of these rays from the sky is a riddle. Scientists, however, are fascinated by them because they can penetrate lead In 100 times farther than the thin air of a mountain top the rays are found to be more numerous than at sea level. They represent the largest "packet" of energy available on earth. If the rays can be harnassed, they will provide a tremendous supply of perpetual power. The first permanent cosmic-ra- y laboratory was specially designed by Denver University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. It Is built of heavy timbers in the resist the shape of a triangle to arctic gales and heavy snows whir h fall nine months of the year. To protect the delicate recording instruments from the weather and lightning, the entire building has been covered with copper roofing. The roofing, a product of the Copper Roofs company of Salt Lake City, was invented several years ago and has now spread all over the contry. The construction methods used cut costs in half and made the roofing avail-abJ- e for the average residence. As a result, the mines of Utah have had their market enlTrp,ed by this fast growing industry which is already usin over a million pounds of its copper yearly. Prominent users of the roof in Utah include the International Smelting company. Church of r' ints.

He was of a practical mind in his dress, except that he often appeared in public driving his own team, when he might have been mistaken for an ordinary horse jockey There was that in his demeanor peculiar to the greatness of the man dignified simplicity. A dress suit was to him a thing to be abhorred. Grant was at his best at the table with his wife and children.

H. Powell, sales manager of the California Fruit Growers Exchange, made public here by the American Fruit and Produce Auction Association. "Auction buyers are made up of wholesalers, jobbers, chain store buyers, retailers and peddlers, each with their own outlets to serve," Mr. Powell's statement reads. "Now, distribute these five factors 100 to 500 men of several among different nationalities in an auction room, each one of them anxious to buy enough fruit to satisfy his trade or to supply his natural outlet, bidding against the other, with no factor knowing just what fruit any of the others may buy. Then conceive, if you can, any possible combination which could outlast the natural Inclination of these men to buy and sell fruit day after day in order to make a profit. Their needs are too widely diversified to permit of any combination, and the sale of this fruit at auction Is, in itself, a practical guarantee that no combination of buyers can ever be successful In discriminating against a grower."
