Draws Sordid Sketch
of London Slum Life
About nine o'clock the miserable
little fish shops of London,, which
punctuate the obscure facades of the
long tenement rows like big lamps, are
crowded with women and children
carrying dishes and baskets, writes
Alfons Paquet in the Frankfurter Zeit
ung.
Even as late as ten o'clock children
play on the pavements and weary,
dowdy women sit on Die steps of their
tiny unlighted houses, whose windows
glint vacant and dusty Into the dark
ness. Women also gather in clusters
on the street corners. Silhouettes of
men stand out in front of brightly
lighted soup and baked potato cara
vans. Candy stores and fruit shops
are still open.
In the middle of a row of darkened
show windows electric eghts shine
brightly on the varnished coffin of
an undertaking parlor. All these
little details stand out sharp and ruth
less, as they do in China.
Untli eleven o'clock the corner pubs
are packed with humanity. Each has
three or more entrances leading to a
little narrow room separated from the
private bar by n light partition extend
ing from the wall to the counter. The
bartender with bls barmaids presides
In the middle of this horseshoe coun
ter, directing things in a fog of to
bacco smoke and whisky fumes.
Men stand as closely together on the
sawdust-covered floor as their half
drained glasses on the wet, narrow
ledge in front of them. Dirty hands
empty again and again the pot of
highly salted shrimps beside the door.

Planet Spread Terror
The terrifying effect of airplanes
upon wild fowl Is s<> great that If any
general use should be made of them
In hunting, the result would be ex
ceedingly disastrous, according to a
bulletin of the biological survey of the
Department of Agriculture. Probably
no other single method of pursuit of
wild ducks and other game birds
could parallel their deadly effect in
reducing the number of wild fowl.
It is for this reason that the biolog
ical survey has called upon all sports
men and conservationists Interested
in the maintenance of this country's
supply of wild fowl to gather and for
ward to It In Washington accurate
information concerning such viola
tions of law.

Porcelain Has Long
Been Known to World
Porcelain factories and stores are
mentioned in Arabia In writing of the
period of 800 A. D. The Arabian
geographer, Mohammed-el-Efridl, who
lived in Sicily at the court of Roger
11, published, about 1154, a geographic
work In which he told of the town of
DJankoy, where “Chinese glass” was
made. He added that there was "no
finer trade than that of a potmaker or
a pot designer,” according to the De
troit News. Toward the middle of
the Fourteenth century, Ibn Batuta,
the Arabian traveler, described Chi
nese ceramic as the most beautiful in
the world. The Chinese manufactured
dishes and porcelain ware for a very
long time.
In the history of the great Chinese
empire, one reads that only certain
towns and villages went in for porce
lain industry. The finest chinaware
was made in the province of Saxij.
It was so beautiful and so much like
tne finest crystal that it never was
exported, but was exclusively re
served for the use of the Chinese em
perors.
