A WOMAN'S HORBY Miss Parker Talks of Her Hens and "Lovely Dark Brown Eggs" London, Jan. 4. -- "I am very gratified, indeed, to think that I may have had a very sl"ght hand in the prospect of the King's re- covery," Miss Helena Parker, who from fowls kept purely as a hobby sent a special consignment of eggs for His Majesty, said with modest pride during an interview yester- day. Beautiful Rhode Island Reds, which supplied the eggs for the King, were roaming contentedly over the pretty garden, of the bungalow where Miss Parker and her. sister, Annie Parker, live at Bromborough, in Cheshire. "I would like to make clear," said Miss Helena, "that the inten- tion in rendering this little ser- vice was purely one of loyalty and devotedness to His Majesty. I don't doubt there are as good eggs in the country as these."And she held out some of a new consign- ment she was preparing to send to Buckingham Palace. "I happened to be in touch with a person who was consulting about zetting the best eg~s available, ae eggs are regarded by the doctors attending the King as being of special importance in His Majesty's diet," she continued. "That is what I consider my good fortune, and I consider myself a very happy woman. My brother who was consulted in London be- ing an expert, immediately com- municated with me and I sent a consignment of eggs immediately. "They are a lovely dark brown, rather round, with yolk not long, a good deep yellow, and white re- markably creamy," Miss Parker de- scribed the eggs. "I don't think you could get more. nourishing egg." The sisters Indulge in gardening and poultry keeping as a hobby, having only eleven fowls, but these ore, all first class Rhode Island eds.

Jan. 5.--For the first time in more than 20 years Willie Hoppe, many' times holder of the title, will not take part in the world's 182 balkline billiards cham- ionship tournament, i of the National Billiard Association sponsors of the tournament, gave him his choice between playing in the 182 championship or the three- cushion tournament in which he won second place at Chicago. "Inasmuch as I had qualified for the three-cushion tournament I saw no reason to withdraw in favor of balkline," id. "This will be the first major balkline tournament I have missed since 1906. I still think the playing of three cushions has not impaired my balkline game, but evidently the officials are of the impression that 2 Player cannot be efficient at both styles." MEXICAN RADICALS MAY BE FORMED INTO ONE GROUP Merger of Many Small Po- litical Clubs May Result Mexico City, Mex., Jan, 5.--Efforts to weld Mexico's so-called "revolu- tionary elements" into one strong oup will be brought to a head in arch when the national revolution- ary parts holds its convention at Queretaro, The party, now in the organization stage, is an attempted merger of many small political clubs and as- sociations spread throughout the country and whose platforms agree in that the program of the revolu- tion, formulated in 1910, when the Diaz dictatorship was overthrown, should be carried out. Some of the organizations disagree in their in- terpretation of the program, but the organizers of the big party hope to bring about an understanding and formulation of one general platform with nomination of a common presi. dential candidate to run in the elec- tions next November, If the convention proves successful perhaps the strongest political party ever built up in Mexico will come into being. Heretofore most of the revolutionary groups have been act. ing independently, Formation of the big party is an {dea that had its inception in a speech made by the then president General Calles, before Congress last September. Calles offered to take charge of the organization work and immediately after completing bis term as chief executive he became head of the organizing committee, In view of later political events, how- ever, he resigned from this post and has retired to private life. There is much speculation as to the party's choice as presidential candidate, A short time ago it ap- 1 peared that Aaron Saenz, governor of the State of Nuevo Leon, had the support of the majority of the groups that will make up the party. AERIAL BOWES TO ELIMINATE WAR Destruction So Great That Nations Dar-n't Start To Fight Dayton, O., Jan, 5.--The con- tinued development of huge aerial bombs, army experts believe, will make another war such as the world war virtually impossible The destruction would be so great that no nation would dare go to war, these men say, The larzest bomb now prescribed for use with the United States army alr corps bombing squadrons weighs two tons, and is canable ot demolishing a skyscraper or battle- ship if released from fits bay be- neath the wings of the bom%er Other bombs, weighing from 25 to 2,000 pounds, have been devel- opcd for special uses with aerfal bombing squadrons of the army air fkcorps. "monster of them all" fis more than twice the size of a tall man, being 14 feet long and ecarry- ing a charze of powder sufficient to wipe out a community. It wou'd be used only against very large ob- jectives, where the complete de- molition of a factory or building would be considered of extraordin- ary military importance. Its en- ormous expense and great welsh? make it impractical for other pur- poses. Cities Helpless The smaller bombs, welching from 50 to 300 pounds, while less attractive to the imac<ination, are capable of enough destruction to assure success of most missions, army men say. Use of sch bombs dropped from airplanes flying over a metropolitan area could render a city as large as New York help- --" I | Tver A A Guarantee Buy a package of Red Rose Red Label--75ca lb., 38ca ¥; Ib, RED ROSE TEA and . useas much as you please.

Under such conditions, a city would soon rum out of food and other supplies. Suffering would increase and a surrender of the teriitory follow. Armament experts, who spent most of their lives developing new instruments of destruction in the Wright Field laboratories of the army air corps material division. 3ay that people who have had war laid down at their very doors, will soon move to bring peace. They reason further that the na- tions of the worl realise that with the continued de- capable of wiping out communities, war will become too horrible to let any nation dare an offensive. Experimental work with new aerial bombs is being carried on daily at Wright Field.

The first, which is the most famous, is an ir- regular enclosure surrounded by a massive wall, erratic in outline and variable in thickness. A row of granite monoliths. decorates the southern wall, while the floor is a thie': bed of cement. The Acropolis is a hill rising 200 to 300 feet above the valley, fortified by consiructions similar to the Elip- tical Temple in the use of stone and cement. The Valley ruins are a group of small dwellings which lies be- tween the two. The late Theodore Bent explored the ruins in 1891 and reported the finding of blue and green Persian pottery, a copper blade plaited with | gold, and altars sculptured with birds and vases, which he attributed to an ancient Semitic people. Other explorers reported the evi- dence of gold mining operations which they estimated had resulte the extractions of about $375,000,000 from the mines and contended that the gold which filled the coffers of David and Solomon was mined in Rhodesia.
