Birmingham, Ain.—An unclassified animal, resembling somewhat iho rhinoceros, will he the object of u limiting expedition into Rhodesia by Dr. Dan W. UcMHlan of .Birmingham, a contributor to the Field museum of Chicago. The animal was sighted In northern Rhodesia by a fellow naturalist while Doctor McMillan was In Africa last spring, ami upon his return to this country tho latter Immediately began preparations for nuothe*' trip In un at tempt to bag the unknown type. Mixes business and Hunting. A.s chairman of tho board of u steel corporation, Doctor McMillan mixes business with the thrilling experiences of an explorer, naturalist and big game hunter. A primitive urge, lie says, calls him back year after year to fever-ridden jungles arid trackless deserts and to frozen wastes of the Northland. “This primitive urge lies dormant be neath the veneer of civilization inmost of us,” be says. Four of the steel magnate’s expedi tions have been In Africa. On his last trip there be covered approxi mately 0,000 miles in a specially built automobile, over routes never before traversed by a ear. Ills party built roads, cut paths through the jungles and pushed across the deserts. Forty inner tubes and 18 tires were used on the triii, and while crossing the des ert of southwest Africa the automobile broke down, stranding the party for several days without water. The men finally made their wfiy afoot to u na tive settlement. Attacked by Bushmen. On another" occasion, Doctor McMil lan’s safari was attacked by bushmen who used poisoned arrows to kill n number of the native bearers. The ex pedition was rewarded, however, with an excellent specimen of Inynla, the rarest of all species of African ante lope. This specimen now is on dis play in the Field museum. Iiictmment Warns of Niagara Ice Forming Niagara Falls, N. Y — An intricate machine combining wind-velocity and water-level gauges with a wind-direc- ti’on finder warns tho Niagara Falls Power company when Ice may lie ex pected to form in the upper Niagara river. The contrivance, invented by Peter Bailer of Niagara Falls, is sheltered on Crass island near the company's pow er houses above the falls. Impressions made by the three devices are syn chronized on n sheet of paper which pas-res through the machine. The wind-velocity gauge is so con structed that it operates a recording device which prints a red dot on the paper when Hie wind cups overhead have traversed a mile. A pen, operated by the water-level gauge, records the height of tho water above mean tide at Albany, and the wind-direction tind er, a weather vane, propels a stamping device with a rubber arrow which al ways points In the same direction as the vane. Passage of time is indicated on the pupevso that the machine com piles an hourly record of the three in struments. Seiler’s invention supplants three separate recording devices and elimi nates a tedious job of comparison. Angry I’uztnmor (tossing a pack age on the counter) - Makes washing a pleasure, lines it?

Speed in Locomotive to Capture 4 Youths Montreal,"Quebec.—A regular moyii* thriller was enacted by the Canadian Pacific railway police when they pur sued in a locomotive and captured four youths who had stolen a motor- driven railroad work car. Warned by a telegraph operator that four men on a motor car were speed ing toward an oncoming train, disre garding all signals and semaphores, four officers requisitioned a locomotive and started in pursuit. Twelve miles from Montreal the youths abandoned tlie car and Med to the fields, where the oflicers followed with drawn pistols. The car was re move.1 from tho tracks ten minutes before a freight train was due. Electricity in Coat Bobby, ago live, had been left in the care of ids aunt while Ids mother was doing some shopping. “Why,” sold Bobbie, “does mother want a coat with electricity in it?” “A coat with electricity in it,” said the aunt, “surely you must be mis taken.” “No, 1 am not," said Bobbie. “She said that .dip was going to buy a coat and haw it charged.’’ Tides of Fusel Sound Enormous in Voh-ma I’uget sound, the many branch. I in let of Hu 1 Pacific ocean, is one of Hi" most picturesque bodies of water In this country. Its shore::, once demviy wooded, have In -n denuded for the most part by the lumberman's nx, but Hie neighboring mountains offset this loss and afford a wonderful hack- ground to the scene. Although the natural beauties are many, the treach erous waters of the Narrow*, a con tracted part of the found which o ns farther south into quiet bays and the ports of plyi in and . feared by all who arc acquainted with Hint locality. ' The tides are extrem - and their ebb and flow causes n rash of water through the Narrows. Twenty-five or thirty miles above the Narrows, in the upper reaches of the sound, the tides attain a height of twenty feet or more. Viewed from tho shore, which is generally pre cipitous, the surging of the water as the tide sets in is magnificent, but lids Is the scene of many tragedies which occur cat'll year. Tremendous whirl pools are formed in Hie slender pas sage niul rarely have rowboats and such smalt craft escaped when gripped in the swirling water. Even large steamboats creak and groan under the strain of breasting these twisting cur rents. The roar of the tides when run ning at full resembles the distant boom of the surf.

Claim to V e.7 i2:on fr Successful Only in West The English walnut originated in southwestern Asia and lias been under important cultivation in the United States since 1S0O. It is successful only in tlie far western states, mainly in California, Oregon and southwestern Washington. The principal center is around Los Angeles in southern Cali fornia. Planting is constantly being Increased In central California, north western Oregon and contiguous ter ritory north of Portland. It should be grown under 2,000 fed of altitude. The climate requirements are moder ate but uniform temperatures, consid erable moisture, and freedom from rad ical drops in temperature. Yculhful Diagnostician Helen Jeanne, tlie lwo-ycnr-o!d daughter of a physician, deemed her self nn eilicient authority on medi cine. One afternoon she: sat in her rocking clinir, crooning to her curly, blond-bended baby doll. Finally a. disgusted look clouded her face. Sim exclaimed, “My baby doesn’t give me any patience ‘a tall,’” and rocked more furiously than ever. After a minute or two, Helen Jeanne placed her soft, baby hand on her doll’s forehead and, after a mo ment of reflection, shouted: “Muv- vor! Baby has ossiful temp’ture.” Not CcrJerred by Ago young will be ready to learn lie old in proportion ns their touching is not thrust upon them.

If (he young see that the old are as anxious to learn a-: they are to teach, they will be ready to listen to them. Inn tHero is no room now for the attitude of superior wisdom which tries to impose ex perience and knowledge. It is fool- | ish to claim attention and vonera- i lion on the ground of years only.

Liza:':'3 That “Fly” Natives of Boa and Bade, coastal islands of Australia, are reporting ex periences with flying lizards. They brought one in for n missionary to examine and lie found Hie creature hud a parclunent-llke skin stretched from body to forelegs. Experiments allowed the reptile actually could volplane front tree tops of considerable height with uncanny accuracy. Natives say It will not at tack the passerby if It is seen but If one talios one’s eyes from the crea ture before out of its range of ilight, one bears a faint lds-s and almost in stantly feels sharp claws in I lie back. The natives previously had brought to the missionary a snake which can run forward or backward with equal case. Hawk Farrner'a Friend Biological survey of the United States Department of Agriculture points out that some hawks are highly beneficial to the farmer, preying al most entirely upon small mammals, such ns mice, ground squirrels and rabbits. Food of other hawks consists chiefly of birds. The bird eaters should lie killed at every opportunity,* but it Is equally important that the others lie spared, for they de.-iroy many small animal pests of the farm er. The blrd-catlng hawks include the Coopev hawk, and the sharp shinned hawk. IVas She Dumb? A girl, Inspecting bargains in n dc- |(Urlmeiit store, picked up pair of golf gloves. Examining Hie left-hand glove, the girl said to her companion: “1 wonder why tills one is padded in ilit* palm?” “Don’t you know?” the other said “That is a golf glove.” “Oil, 1 was .the reply, “ami that’s tlie hand you catch the hail with.” Discordant Note The bureau of standards says that Helmholtz’ explanation of why a dis cordant musical note will offend the ear is as follows: The essence of dis sonance consists merely in very rapid beats or cliui.g: s in Intensity of the sound. Two consonant tones flow on quietly side by side In an undisturbed stream; dissonant tones cut each oilier up into separate pulses. These pulses may be too rapid for the ear to sepn rate, but tlieir existence may be demonstrated. The nerves of bearing feel these rapid beats as rough and unpleasant because every intermittent excitement of any nervous nppunitu- ulVecls us more powerfully limn one Hint la.-;ts unaltered. Sounded the Same "I’ve broken by favorite jazz record right in two," said the flapper mourn fully. "Guess I can fix it, though." Then she carefully glued the two parts together, putting the glue on the hack side, the side that she didn’t care for Then she played it—and found she had glued a back side and a front side to gether. "What shall I do?” she ex claimed. “Never mind,” said tlie cynical par ent, “it sounds just about tlie same ns if you had glued it right.”—Springfield Union. which ( support of tlie theory will he brought forth. Doctor Wheeler argues that there is t:o lib i-.a-ical evidence of a prehistoric London and that tlie fact that London !:• a (’cldc name carrlc;-, no particular :■■!:’.aificnin-e since Hie Itonmns, as tho modern colonizing British, often adopted tho tiativo names for their settlements. Pararito of London Bridge. The absence of an early settlement in such nil important position Is ex plained by the historian with the fact that (he population of England in the hunting stage of civilization was very small an-d about, live-tenths of Hie country was covered by densd oak for es;*, which were practically impene trable. There forest areas of the Thames valley would tliu.r be avoided, while tlie open gravel area in tho vi cinity r.uw London was undesirable, due to Hie great breadth and extreme turbulence of the river at that point. As for Hie city of London itself Doc tor Wheeler is of the opinion that it is a “parasite of London bridge.” This, lie explained, Is a logical deduction from the fact that tho original bridge came Into existence when overseas trade began to he a dominating factor in tho economic life of southeastern England, for which it constituted a • link In one of (he main arteries. These trade conditions, according to (lie historian, came into existence at the time of the Roman occupation, or about tho year X! A. D., Hie year of the Roman conquest. Roman London, in all likelihood, he declares, was u bridgehead settlement. C::k Mora Evidence. The Roman wall, according to Doc tor Wheeler, was built much earlier than tlie Third or Fourth century, as generally believed. Ho declares there Is reason lo believe that it was built jis early as the I-'irst century follow ing the destruction of the Roman, town by Bordicc-a. tie [mints out that there is much evidence that large and ambi tions works of that kind belong to the early period of success and ambition, while Hie small walled towns are more typical of the period during which the Roman cities were erecting defenses against the barbarian Invaders. Doctor Wheeler lias made a pica for the appointment of a trained official to watch tlie building excavations in tlie area of Roman London, declaring that invaluable discoveries were being lost a.s Hie result of modern Lou don driving ils foundations straight through Hie Roman level.
