Alfred Metraux, a French ethnologist who spent five months on Easter Island, declared the undeoiphered inscriptions found there bear a marked resemblance to inscriptions i^iade 5,000 years ago in the Indus valley in India.

A heavy cruiser uses 18,000 gallons, a destroyer 6,700 gallons, a submarine 3,600 .gallons. Almost all other war equipment being produced in prodigious numbers requires protective coatings--airplanes, tanks, jeeps, shells of all sizes, to say' nothing of barracks and other buildings, says the department of com- Fads and Fancies A daring venture in contrast color technique combines contrasting sleeves, each in a different color with a dress in a third. This sports fashion is shown for spring. Designers are giving a gay and dressy look to spring suits of wool by featuring lining, blouse and gloves of bright printed fabric. Hat and glove sets of print are also scheduled for spring. Cotton smocks that look like a wrap-around coat are sold with a big padded glove swinging from a self-fabric cord attached to the belt, so you can lift off pans without burning your hands. Amateur cooks, please take notice! A noted dress designer has conceived the idea of creating a very smart looking overskirt of a warm wool fabric to button on over, new spring print frocks and sheer dinner dresses, giving every appearance of a two-fabric ensemble.
