Good- rich Company rubber "wing shoes" for the elimination of ice in flight will deliberately seek freezing conditions always avoided by airmen, it was announced recently at Cleveland Air- port by Wesley L. Smith, eastern su- perintendent of the airmail line. For two years the Goodrich Com- pany's engineering staff and represen- tatives of the air transport company have worked on the problem of pre- venting the damaging formation of ice on airplanes which has cost the lives of many pilots, The first airplane to be completely | equipped with the rubber coverings is now ready for the initial tests, which | if successfal will mean that another | ying hazard is solved. The coverings, built 'of special rub-! ber and fabrie, arg moved by com-| pressed airy and exhaustive tests in a refrigerated wind tunnel constructed by Goodrich in Akron, Ohio, indicate that the device will be successful i actual service. : Under certain atmospheric condi- tions only a few mintes of ice-flying is sufficient to bring an airplane to earth completely out of control. MAGNIFYING GLASS UNNECESSARY HERE Maine Electrician Has Eyes Magnifying Objects a Hun- dred Times Minot, Me.--~The eyes of Alvah Mason, 25, a local electrician, are so focused that objects within a dis- tance of eight inches are magnified more than 100 times beyond their ac- tual proportions. For ordinary work Mason has to use glasses = that de- magnify and arother person looking through these spectacles might just as well be gazing through the wrong end of a telescope. Objects more than eight inches away from Mason's naked eves ap- | pear. blurred, but at a closer range he can even distinguish phonograph i records by the difference in impres- sions made in the discs. Removing his glasses, he can point with unfail- ing accuracy to the recorded anvil strokes in the "Anvil Chorus from II Trovatore." Mason does not have to hear a record to determine whether or not a song was sung in a staccato or crooning manner. The sound grooves appear to him as the track made by dragging a finger through soft mud Por of the skin and the infinity estimal holes in newspaper are quite apparent to Mason when he discards the glasses necessary for the greater part of his work, NEED DENTAL SERVICE London, Jan, 17.--Every year 40,000 lives are saved that would have been lost a generation ago, de- clares Sir George Newman, Chief Medical Officer of the Board of Edu. cation, in his new Report on the health of school children. Never. theless the rate of disease and dis ability among boys and girls of sthool age ' remains static. The population is being maintained by the enormous advance of preven- tive medicine and enlightened motherhood. These two factors offset the decline in birthrate. Sir George asks for a complete school dental service, $100 TO THE HANGMAN FOR KEEPING DATE OPEN Fredericton, N.B,, Jan. 17.--The legal question as to whether a re- taining fee paid a hangman to "keep a date open' is returnable when the hanging is not held, was the subject of recent debate in York County Council, the decision be- ing to hold the matter over for a joint meeting of city and county councillors. The question arose when Sheriff John Hawthorne presented a bill for $100, the sum he had pald Ar- thur Ellis, official hangman, as a of Harvey Dunlop, Campbell Settle. ment recluse, who had been con- demned to death for the murder of Erbon Dickinson, but whose sen- tence was subsequently commuted to life imprisonment. WANT REPRESENTATION Curling, 'Nfld., Jan. 17.--Péeti- tions from Labrador settlements, praying for representation in the House of Assembly for the main- laid territory, will be forwarded to the , Newfoundland government shortly, it is learned here. SEALS HERD AT BATTLE HARBOR From Two to Three Hundred Killed in Single Day at Labrador Port St. John's, Nfld --The possibility of securing information of value to the sedl-hunters when they go "north to the ice" in early March, is seen here in reports from Battle Harbour, La- brador, of profitable seal-hunting in December. The mail steamer, Sa- ona, arriving at Curling from the .abrador port reported that on one day between two and three hundred seals had been taken at Battle Har- bour, ¢ It is believed that a study of the mammals taken at that settlement in December might establish facts re- lative to the number of seals going through the Straits of Belle Isle to the Gulf, and that conditions exist- ing at the time might be an import- agt, . element in . determining the seems to the ordinary flaked eye. colirse the seals take in the vicinity retainer to officiate'at the execution ° | India, instituted in 1861; "Ihe of the Straits.

Tasker Cook, for many yeat's Mayor of St. John's in the New Year's honors list, brought the number of living knights in New- foundland to eleven. Rt. Hon. Sir William Lloyd and Rt. Hon. Sir Richard Squires, are Knight Com- manders ofthe Order of St. Michael and St. George. Knights of the Brit- ish Empire include Sir John Crosbie, Sir William Coaker, and Sir John Rennett. Members of the order of Knights Bachelor are Sir William Horwood, Sir Edgar Bowring, Sir Joseph Outerbridge, Sir Marmaduke Winter, Sir Alfred Morine and Sir Tasger Cook. In referring to the honor conferregd on Newfoundland's latest knight a commentator has been at pains io clarify the precedence of the various orders. The principal order of chi- valry is the Garter, and of the thir- ty-esevn metnbers, only one, Sir Aus- ten Chamberlain is not a peer. The same is true for the Order of the Thistle, reserved for Scottish noble- mien, The third order is that of St. Patrick, reserved for Irish spurs. Af- ter these comes the order of Mer- it, which does not confer knighthood, but is confined to a distinguished company of twenty-four members, Of the orders of knighthood most commonly distributed the ranking or- der is' The Most Honorable Order of the Bath, instituted in 1399; The { Most Exalted Order of the Star of Most | Distinguished Order of St. Michael | and St. George, instituted, 1818. The Most Distinguished Order of the In- lian Empire, instituted in 1877; The Most Excellent Order of the British Fine , instituted in 1917; the Royal Victorian Order, and the Knights Bachelor, YELLOW PINE SEED Three and a half tons of yellow pine seed and nearly one and hall tens of Sitka spruce seed we: extracted at the New Westminite (BYX.) sced extraction plant for terest tree sced," which is main- tained by the Forest Service of the Department of the Interior. These quantities would mean, respective- ly. about fifty-six million (56,- 000,000) individual seeds of yellow pine 'and over eight hundred mil- Hon (800,000,000) seeds of Sitka spruce, Nearly three hundred pounds of Douglas fir seed were extracted and smaller quantities of lodgepole pine, Western white pine, lowland fir, and cascara. The greater part of this seed is taken by the British Forestry Commis- sion for uge in connection with the large afforestation schemes being yh ---- carried on in Great Britain and by the Government of New Zealand for its plantations. COMPREHENSIVE CANADIAN MAPS The Topographical Survey, De partment of the Interior, Canada, is making a valuable contribution to the knowledge of this country in mapping and publishing the sheets of the National Topographic Ser- fes. One of these sheets on the scale of one ifich to one mile cov- ers an area of nearly 400 square miles. On the one inch to two miles' scale the area covered is about 1,600 square miles, while on the scale of one inch to four miles the area included is.about 6,000 square miles. These areas vary with the latitude. ON AUTHORITY He--The Highfliers are going to give up their big house this winter. She--You must be mistaken, I was talking with Mrs. Highflier only yes- terday.

Finding that words had but little ef- fect upon his child, the father resorted to sterner measures. A neighbor, watching him chastise the boy, noticed with admiration that Bernard gave no audible indication of the pain he was suffering. "Don't you ever cry when you're beaten, Bernard?" he asked him af- terward. "What's the use?" retorted the small boy. "The old man's deaf."-- Vancouver Star.
