The turtle, regarded by the Chinese as a sacred animal with the magician power to predict the future accurately, lived in the Miocene age, some 19,000,000 years ago, paleontologists who ex- amined the fossil estimated yes- terday. ' Zoological records at the Field Museum showed the fossil to be of an entirely unknown species of the genus testudo. The six mysterious ancient Chinese inscriptions, Dr. Berthold Laufer, curator of anthropology and noted Orientalist, said yester- day, undoubtedly bear a message that will be of interest to all scientists in America, The doc- tor said he was. engaged in de- ciphering the Archaic script, which probably would take several weeks, Divination was one of the dom- inating influences in ancient Chin- ese life, Dr. Laufer explained. "The diviner was no ta priest, but his position was comparable to that of a lawyer in our society, In the same way that the modern business man consults his lawyer on important questions the Chin- ese did not make a step without asking the advice of a diviner, The oracles and sometimes the answer were carved in bones, turtle shells, Scientists Use Wings of House Fly to Measure Heat of Stars and other such objects." Scientist's Belief Dr. Laufer believes that the fossil, millions of years after the turtle's death, apparently turned up to attract the attention of some Chinese mystic, who carved the strange ingeription on its back. The turtle was found in Shen- Si province, China, and was brought to this country by C., F. Yau, The inscriptions were deli- cately traced in the earliest stage of Chinese script, identical with that on the famous oracle hones of Ho-Nan, "Centuries ago," Dr, Laufer said, "the shell of turtles was one of the chief elements in the. art of divination in China, They were scorched over the fire for this pur pose, and the cracks resulting from the heat yielded a picture believed to foreshadow future events, "The oldest examples of Chin- ese writing are preserved on tor- toise shell fragments, which con- tain questions addressed to sooth- sayers and the answers given by them." The fossil, which was a gift to the museum from Mrs, Chauncey B, Borland, prominent Chicago so- ciety woman, is in a good state of preservation, Stephen C. Simms, director of the museum, said yes- terday. "Fossils of this type might be termed perpetual," Simms said.

H. Winchest- er & Co. The airships would cost $4,000,- 000 each, according to F. H. Gibbs of Gibbs Brothers, Inc., and could make the eastward flight to Paris in two days and the return trip by way of the Azores in 85 hours. Passenger service would not be attempted at first, Gibbs said, but later the two dirigibles would be augmented by two others, each capable of carrying 5 passengers. Mail contracts would be sought for the preliminary flights, . S ih Drs: 0 Simcoe St, N, hone 227 North Simcoe St. United Church Rev, A.

She called on the congregation at the end of a lively peroration and asked if any- one were saved. An old man bowed his head. "There!" said Aimee. There is one sinner who has re- pented!" At that moment the man raised his flushed features. "Where the devil is my hat?" he asked his next-door neighbor. ' An All Canadian Enterprise That Merits Your Support For years people of Ontario have been looking forward to the time when they could get coal from our own mines in Alberta and thereby assist in the developing of our own fuel supply and keep our in Canada. This happy day is here. ight rate adjustment made. Shipments of Alberta Coal started January 15th and trainloads are rolling East and will til July 15th. . w Apart altogether from patriotic however will find that it has advantages «beh experienced. It gives quicker, more lasting heat, less ash, no clinker. Perfect for furnace, stove or open grate. You save money --and have heat satisfaction. Remember, that ALBERTA COAL is used almost exclusively to heat Western Canada homes which are 90%, frame construction and where storm windows are unknown and where temperature often drops to 50° below zero.
