'a "television eye" which 'would transmit airplane views to a ground réceiving station has been announced by C. Francis Jenkins, Washington inventor. The apparatus involves entirely new principles in the Jenkins tele- vision process, and it will be given its first practical test within a few weeks.

For Teachers' Pensions, 3 'Issue' To Be Decided Edmonton, Alta, April 20.-- That the campaign for pensions for teachers be continued with un- abated vigor and that the govern- ment of Alberta be frequently re- minded of the importance of se- curity for teachers in old age, to- gether with certain amendments to the new school act, will probably be some of the more important re- sults to accrue from the Alberta RHEUMATISM ?

"The proposed pension plan is one that has been tried successful- ily in Ontario for eleven yeurs," said one official recently. "In- stead of the usual pension scheme, whereby teachers are required to become members of the civil ser- vice and thus be engaged by the province, and not, as at present by municipalities, the porposal is that 2 1-2 per cent. of teachers' wages be set aside for pension purposes and that the provincial govern- ment contribute a sum equal to the total derived from salaries. "This would mean enactment of a pension scheme varying from $480 to $1,200 a year. Provision is made in the act for retirement after 30 years' service, or on reaching the age of 60 in the case of men and 55 for women; the benefits so received being propor- tionally less.

EAST PHONE 2223 For Your Ice Cream and Candy Needs FIND BONES OF 10-TON MONSTER Largest Animal Known Dis- covered in Gobi Desert i London, April 20. -- Life in the Gobi desert in Mongolia millions of years ago and the discovery there of the bones of the largest animal known to science--a mon- ster weighing 10 tons -- were de- scribed' to a reporter recently by Roy Chapman Andrews, the ex- plorer. Mr, Andrews, who has just ra- turned from his fourth expedition in the desert, said: Our. greatest discoveries this year were fossils. The bones of this new mammal, which lived eight or nine million years ago, show that it was 25 feet long, and 14 feet high to the shoulders, It was as big as a freight car. Too Big to Pack We have the bones of about 8 or 10 of these monsters and one skeleton is so huge that it was found impossible to pack it, but we hope to recover it next year, This animal will not be named un- til it reaches the American Muse- um of Natural History. We also found a giant masto- don--a prehistoric elephant--with a jaw eight feet long shaped like a coal scoop. The front of its face is unlike anything we have seen before, 'It lived about 6,000,000 years ago. Among other finds were four Titonothere skeletons -- animals that are something ike the rhin- oceros. These have only been found before in America, and this proves the migration must have taken place in early times from Asia to America. Another strange find was the skeleton of an animal--a new type --with a skull shaped like a stock saddle, the pummel, or its nose, pointing straight up in.the air and its mouth underneath. What it had in front of its face no one knows. We have always thought that traces of human life would be found in Central Asia, but so far we have not found anything very definite on the human side, We came across remarkable specimens of stone age culture, and there were traces that peo- ple lived there at least 20 or 25 thousand years" ago. We found that they lived there in millions, and on the plateau there was evidence that they must have lived largely on birds and frogs. Mr. Andrews said they could on- ly judge by the implements they found that human life existed there because no sign of caves was found. .

TORONTO ANATOLE FRANCE HAS WONDERFUL NOBLE EXPRESSION Toronto, Ont, April 20--"The deep desire and consequent suffering in the mind of man has never found nobler expression than that of Ana- tole France," Prof. J. S. Wills de- clared in an appreciative address on the French author in University col- lege recently. "He represents in the literature of the 19th century the recreating forces of humanism," the speaker continued. "The passions of the first half of the century were mired on one hand in the pseudo-sci- entific mud of naturalism, and on the other were swept on through symbol- ism to a barbarous jazz-like synco- pation. Anatole France with a few others showed the clear road out to sanity by a re-integration of intelli- gence in its rightful domain." "His is one of the most interesting intelligences of the world of today and by all evidence promises to re- main such in the world of tomorrow," Prof. Wills declared. France was born in 1844 and belonged to the same generation as Hardy, Zola and Ver- laine, being just a little older than de Maupassant, Loti, Bouget and Bernard Shaw. "It is surprising to observe that 'one who resisted so strongly the current of his century is in reality' so much a part of it that certain features of such widely differing personalities as these men may be easily recognized in him," Prof. Wills said. Pope and France resembled one another in their aes- thetic humanism, Prof.. Wills be- lieved; Hardy and France in their speculative intelligence; and Bernard Shaw and France in their militant lib- eralism. He suggested interesting analogies between France and Dick- ens, Lamb and Wells. Men's Dress Shirts Special Sale .. $1.00 Dominion Clothing Store 38 King St. W. Phone 2141 3 E25 0 £ : Hebridean Compositions | Now : Classed Among Known Folk-Music London, April 20.--Generations ago Mendelssohn composed a Heb- ridean overture, a .celebrated and charming piece of music--but more Mendelssohn than Hebridean. In his day it was hardly suspected that the Hebrides had. a music of their own, Today the wild islands 'have been most thoroughly charted, and the gramophone and the print- ing press have recorded the least shreds of the untutored song of | fisher-folk and crofters. The col- lecting of this folk-music has been one woman's work-----the indefatig- able and enthusiastic Mrs. Marjorie Kennedy-Fraser, 4 Rather more than a quarter of a century ago this Edinburgh sing- ing teacher and musical critic first went to the Outer Hebrides and be- | came fired With the idea of colleci- ing the hitherto unrecorded folk- songs. She returned year after year; she roughed it; she learnt Gaelic; she found numbers of really beautiful songs, and these she has tirelessly propagated up and down the world, at numberless concerts, so that Hebridean folk-music has become a commodity almost as well known ag Harris tweed. In the evening of her days Mrs. Kennedy- Fraser has written an aceount of her Hebridean and other adven- tures. (A Life of Song, published by the Oxford University Press). Not only the islanders but even the local zoological life has musi- cal propensities, and we read of this remarkable origin of one of Mrs. Kennedy-Fraser"s folk-songs. She was sitting by the sea shore at Barra, with two musical friends, and on some rocks lay basking some grey seals. It occurred to her to test the creatures, power of musical appreciation and she began singing to them. The seals repli- ed in chorus-- "Then, from out a few seconds' intense silence, came a beautiful solo voice. . . . The voice of the seal was so beautiful (of a rich mezzo-soprano quality) and the 'cantabile' so perfect that I should almost have believed I had been dreaming but for the corroboration of my two musician fellow-heur- ers." Mrs. Kennedy-Fraser had her note-book with her and on the spot she wrote down the seal's song which is now perpetuated in her collection. The Hebrides are not her only subject. She was the daughter of a singing teacher, David Kennovuy (1825-1886), whose accompanist she was and with whom she tour- ed the world when quite a child.
