GHOST OF SYDNEY BRIDGE IS LAID Explanation Dispels Belief of Eerie Phenomena in Structure elected clec- Melbourne.--It seems absurd to talk of the supernatural in con- nection with the latest engineer- ing marvel of the world, but in Sydney they are doing so. For at intervals eerie wailings are heard on the bridge, and many people, including the workmen who have been employed on the structure, are convinced that it is haunted. Various theories were put for- ward to account naturally for those mysterious sounds, but none of them would fit the facts until it was noted that the walls were heard only on days during which there were considerable variations of temperature. Then it was rea- lized that these variations caused movements which set up vibra- tions at the expankion joints of each steel truss, So; though the superstitious still cling t, their belief in the bridge ghost, an explanation has been found which satisfies every- one else, and another good "haunting" story has gone west. ystery Music . There is usually a natural ex- planation to be found for what seems at first supernatural, only sometimes we don't look long enough for it. For instance, many stories have been circulated concerning, the ghost music =f Ben Macdhui, in the Scottish Highlands. This mu- sic, which has been heard by many people, sounds like that of a fuli- sized orchestra of wind and string instruments, with, every now and again, voices joining in, as if sing- ing in chorus, Most of those who heard it be- lieved firmly that it was of super- natural origin until, some years ago, two brothers discovered the secret of these strange and uncan- ny concerts, "The whole thing was caused by the wind blowing in cracks and funnels in the rocks and crags," one of them said, in relating how the ghost was laid. 'The clefts were taking the 'part of organ pipes, each giving out a separate note. We were able to trace many of the notes to their respec- tive sources. '"At a distance the rising and falling in volume was due to wind eddies and currents, and this, combined with the sounds of fall- { ing and rushing water, blended the whole thing into the most pleasing combinations." Heard In Desert Perhaps in emulation of Ben Maecdhui, the Alps are now to have their own mountain organ. But this is to be an artificial, not a natural, affair, and although tour- ists may be rather surprised when they hear music issuing from what looks like solid rock, explanations will be forthcoming at once, and ghost stories will have no time to grow. Mountains are not the only nat- ural objects that are, or can be, made musical. Mr, Bertram Thomas discovered singing sands during his exploration of the Ara- bian Desert. Such singing sands are to be found in various parts of the world,, and sometimes they give off noises more terrifying than pleasant, which might easily im- press the superstitious. The Arabs, for instance, when they hear the singing sands in the Lib yan Desert, say it is the spirits of the dunes talking. At Abydos, in Egypt, there are deep gorges which, in some cases, are partially blocked by great masses of sand. As sunset ap- proaches the change in tempera- ture causes the surface layers to slip and the sound thus produced, echoed and re-echoed by the gteep walls of the gorges, fills the whole place with a great rumbling roar which is awe-inspiring in the ex- treme, Scotland's. Singing Sands Among the singing sands pro- per examples have heen recorded "with volume and tone as sweet as a church organ." Others re- mind those who hear them of the "cello, Some of these musical sands occur in. this country, though none of them perhaps can rival the best examples elsewhere. But there is a cove known as "Whis- tling Sands" from the sounds ft gives out when you walk over it, in Carnarvonshire. And Scotland has musical gands at Ardnell Bay, West Kilbride, in Ayrshire, and at the Bay of Laig, in the Islands of Eigg, on the West Coast. At one time all these places would be regarded with supersti- tious awe; now we know that they are perfectly natural. ART FOR ART'S SAKE IN THE EASTERN WILDS Mrs. Welch Paints Morocco Magic--Not the Terrors That Might Befall a Wo- man Adventuring in the Far East Boston, Mass, July 15 -- Once upon a time a noted Boston art tist ventured to paint a "Ghost Tree" in Sabang. It was a wond- erful old tree, and Mrs. Virginia Lee Welch painted it in peace for two whole hours, the natives' terror of the thing preventing any unusual interruptions. When Mrs. Welch and the finished pro- duct returned to the home of her host, he told. her the "wonder- ful old tree" was the home of a 26-foot bea constrictor -- hence the complete indifference of his countrymen. "Ive always found that the best pictures seem to be away up in the back country, so that's where I have gone with my. little out- fit," explained Mrs. Welch. "A g00d pair of legs and a hearty epirit have 'carried me far into the tegions of Morocco, where no white woman has ever gone Fefore--all for the sake of a fav nictures. T never had any troulje and, between Sign language a a few words of Arabic T pick up. I got along verv well. "That 18, T' got along very we excent for the fact T was alwa rushing into places from whi I should. have steered clear . miles.' ; At the present time Mrs. Welc| howing the pictures she has wa in the far East in a local studio. The hazards of the distant corners of the earth, where she has gone in search ot scenes to paint, are part of the adventure. "I've been set upon by street gamins in Sabang, near- ly run over by the flying hoofs ot African camels, stoned in Al- giers by devout followers of the Koran's teaching, 'Do not have your picture painted'," said Mrs, Welch, "but I always got my pic. ture. A direct descendant of Napol- eon's chief ordinance officer and his beautiful Indo-China wife in- vited the artist, who was painting plains at the timé, to have tea with them one afternoon. Mrs. Welch attributes the "greatest thrill in all my treking up and down," to the trunkful of old letters in her host's possession. "He showed me letter upon letter written by the great lead- er of France to his ancestor. Everyone of them was signed with Napoleon's name and those written from the royal palace, carried the famous seal as well. I was heartbroken when I saw how the rats had been at the con- tents of the trunk--but, he sad, nothing could be done about it, go why fret!" Mrs, Welch has crossed the At- lavtic and Pacific sixteen times, been decorated with the 'Croce al Merito di Guerre" by the Ital- fan Government for services at the front, and has achieved the nruch coveted newspaper assign- ment of covering the far East. "All people are nice if you smile and make a few gestures," said Mrs. Welch. 'The painting of pictures demands the human touch and you are sure to get it in the wilds of the East. Don't lect anyone scare you -- an open lite never hurt any woman. Just as soon as I can pack up and go I'm heading for the Isle of New Britain, where I'm going to paint savages. Then, I'm going for another trip around the world, the diary of which I will make in pictures.' GLIDERS IN TOW OF GIANT AIRPLANES Feature of Fast Travel Era Now Coming Into View London --Aerial expresses drawn by aeroplanes shedding slip-coaches in the forme of gliders; 140-miles-an-hour rail trains; Bigger surface-skimming boats that may be the liners of the future. All these are under test as the first contribution to the day of still faster travel that is dawning. The "Rush Age," as we think of 1931, will be regarded as the Tor- toise Age by the next generation, One of the most striking develop- ments is the successful use in Ger- many of aerial trains, in which an aeroplane tows a number of gliders, which released at a great height, can cover great distances before they alight. The success of the German pro- peller-driver train which travelled from Hamburg to Berlin in one hour forty-four minutes, reaching 140 miles an hour, has focused the attention of British railwtys on this form of travel. At Glasgow, great success has al- ready been achieved by a British in- ventor of a propeller train which could travel on cables suspended over the existing lines, the lines be- ing still used for goods or for cheap, slower passenger travel. "The Germans have already suc- cessfully towed three gliders from one aeroplane," said Mr. E. C. Gor- don England, chairman of the Bri- tish Gliding Association, "It is quite safe, and the possibil- ities are enormous, "Gliders will be able to leave the feeder machine and distribute them- selves among the towns for which they have passengers. There is a region of absolutely "safe air" for gliders over a certain height. "Between the lower and upper strata there is a 'boundary air. area' that can deceive you a bit, but if you get over a height of 300 or 400 feet manoeuvrability is perfect. "The public does not seem to rea- lize that men has glided a hundred miles and more. The British experimenter with propeller trains is Mr. George Ben- nie of Milngavie, near Glasgow, "We shall watch his work with even more keenness in view of the German performance," a prominent railway official told the Daily Her- ald. "He has already shown with models that hugh speeds can be reached in perfect safety." PULPIT GREATEST FORCE IN WORLD Impressive Ceremony At Dedication Ephraim Scott Church Montreal, July 16--With all due ceremony the Ephraim Scott Pres- byterian Church, formerly known as the Mount Royal Vale Presby- terian Church, on Clanranald ave. was officially opened and dedicated by Rev. Dr. A Hill, moderator of the Presbytery, The new church, which was offiei- ally started in 1888 as part of a mis- sion used jointly by Anglicans, Methodists and Presbytegians, was officially opened at the 11 o'clock service Sunday morning, A large group of clergy as well as numer- ous members and friends of the congregation were present when the church. was dedicated at tliree o'clock yesterday afternoon. Pointing out the various changes undergone by the church since its inception, Rev. A. Neil Miller, the minister, said that it was in 1912 that the Presbyterians bought the small building on the west side of Clanranald avenue. Tt was utilized J as a school house and church Tt had a membership of 27 in 1928, but Spain Flooding France With Strong Wines at Cut Prices Paris, July 16--Spain protected by a high tariff wall based on pay- ments on a gold basis and anxious to sell abroad so as to keep credits in Bordeaux and Parig banks, has poured products into France at such a rate that French manufac- this had been increased to over 160. This building was taken down last week. * ' In. preparation for the construc- tion of the new church, Dr. Eph- raim Scott, after whom the church is named, turned the first sod last November and laid the cornerstone the first week in May. He was un- able to be present yesterday owing to illness. The cost of the new structure was announced as $22,500 by F. T. Jef- frey, chairman of the building com- mittee. Over half this sum or $12,- was raised by the congregation, $5,000 was received as a gift from the Knox Crescent Church and there was $5000 outstanding as a turers and farmers are clamoring for Government legislation relief. For the past year, since a royal decree re-established a gold duty basis for French imports in Spain, France has seen her trade with Spain grow more unbalanced. Spain is buying practically no French goods, partly because of the boycott and partly because of the uneasy market conditions. The revolution in Spain was fol- lowed by a severe drop in prices and Spanish goods can now be shipped into France and sold well under the best French prices. ' At Perpignan and Bezieres, much Spanish wine has been sold at 52 cents a hectolitre, while wines of a corresponding quality and strength, at the French vineyards themeselves cost 64 to 772 fgancs. The result is that sales of Spanish wines have mounted at Perpignan from 25 - 50 tank-car loads in a day. Spain has already shipped to France the entire lot of 2,000,000 hectolitres of wine which is ordin- arily set aside for sale during "he year. The shipments have been so great that last year's Spanish crop of 16,000,000 hectolitres is sold out. The Spanish wines, strong in alco- hol, are used to "cut" weaker but testier French wines Disarmament Topic Before Convention Richmond, Va.--The first two weeks in October are to be em- ployed in obtaining signatures to the petition which the Federation of Business and Professional Wo- men's Clubs of the United States will launch, asking for the imme- diate reduction of armaments, which petition is to be presented to the disarmament conference at Geneva in 1932. The minimum number of signatures to be sought is 60,000. This recommendation was presented to the convention of the Federation yesterday by Misg Lena Madesin Phillips, presi- dent of the International Federa- tion of Business and Professional Women's Clubs, the recommenda- tion having been voted on at an earlier round-table conference on international relations. When the International Federation holds its convertion in Vienna in the lateer part of July, ons of the to- pics of discussion will be: What can women do internationally to influence public pinion in prep- aration for the disarmament con- ference? Miss Phillips' presentation of the petition followed a talk on "The Need for Internationa] Co- operation and Understanding," by Mrs. Laura W. McMullen, of New York. Miss Dorothy Heneker, of Montreal, secretary of the Inter- national Canadian Federation out lined the work in 14 countries in Europe, in which ghe recently car- ried out a tour of organization. She said that she had found everywhere such {interest in the aims and purposes of the organi- zation and also the feeling that, in these times of economic change and depression, international co- operation was more than ever es- sential for the preservation of the interests of the business and pro- fessional women of the world. "Therefore it behooves us as the trained women of the world," she said, "to stand even more closely shoulder to shoulder and co-oper- ate wherever possible in any con- structive action which may help to ease the present situation and make for future stability."
