Claim Life Commenjces At Grandparent-hood A group of Omaha, Nebraska, elders have formed the National Association of Grandparents of America and plan to promote similar organizations in other cities. "Although books, plays and sons try to tell you when life begins," said a club announcement, "these gentlemen think that life begins when you are a grandparent." President Don Amsden said the club would be social, charitable and benevolent. Says More Quakes May Be Expected Expert Sees Renewal of Earth Tremors In the Near Future The world may expect a number of earthquakes in the near future, Captain N. H. Heck of the U.S. coast and geodetic survey said last week. He explained, however, that quakes cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty, because they give no warning of their approach. During the last year 56 earthquakes severe enough to be recorded on instruments have occurred throughout the world, said Captain Heck. "After such a period of quietness it is generally possible to expect a renewal of activity," he added. Tiny Radio Waves Travel In Pipe One Pipe Might Carry All 'Phone Conversations Between Cities Lilliputian wireless waves so short they travel inside a pipe and are picked up on an antenna only one inch high were placed before the radio engineering -world at New York last week by the Bell Telephone laborator- In pipes/" the engineers were informed, these midget waves promise to travel like telegraphd messages, but without the limits imposed by a wire. A single small pipe, between two cities^for example, might carry all the telephone conversations wanted. Four to Eight Inches Long The waves exhibited ranged from four to eight inches long. They travelled through a 20-foot exhibition pipe. Like all short radio waves these midgets reflect light. Metal discs, used as mirrors, reflect the waves into one end of the pipe. The inch-long antenna picks them off at the other end. They have been piped a mile. The wwyj are made by tubes no larger than a common electric light bulb. Their "frequencies" or pulsations, are thousands of millions of times a second. Close to Heat Waves Still shorter wireless waves, only an inch and a quarter, have been produced in the Bell laboratories. These vibrate at ten thousand million times a second. They are very close to heat waves. At California Institute of Technology at Pasadena research workers experimenting with similar short waves, report unusual experiments in imparting artificial fevers to selected tissues. Thus one type of short wave might heat a bone, and another flesh, a third blood. In 1848 a firearms manufacturer made pistols that had coffee-grinders in the handles. Along Canada's Mining Highway Outstanding favourable developments in the mining fields of Ontario and Quebec have created new and widespread interest. The new ore zone discoveries on Hardrock, found also to extend over on to the Macleod Cockshutt property, has put life into the Long Lac Camp of Western Ontario. Nearby property owners are filled with a new hope. In Eastern Ontario, close to the Quebec boundary, along a seven mile front from Larder Lake to beyond Kerr Addison, operators of properties are endeavouring to emulate the success of Barber Larder with diamond drills. In the Noranda area of Quebec, Brownlee Gold Mines has enlarged its property holdings, closely adjacent to Powell Rouyn and Noranda, and is starting a diamond drilling campaign. The Lacoma property in the Senneterre area of Quebec is rapidly proving up an important ore structurffWhe East Lacoma property, adjoining, has diamond drilling starting under contract. An unprecedented season of mining activity is indicated from Coast to Coast, with great expectations in Some quarters for the Gordon Lake, Athabasca and Great Slave- Lake sections, of the North West Territories. London Traffic Found Lighter Arterial Highways Are Being Used More LONDON, Eng.--Scotland Yard has sprung a surprise on London's traffic experts, says the Christian Science Monitor. In the latest traffic census issued by the police headquarters it is revealed that central London's traffic has decreased instead of increasing as anticipated. For instance it had been confidently predicted that traffic at Hyde Park Corner, busiest point in the metropolis, would have risen from the 1935 figure of 82,728 vehicles in 12 hours to about 100,000 in 1937. Instead there was a decrease of 2,000 vehicles on the day the census was taken. Congestion Reduced Meanwhile the new arterial roads skirting central London and the main roads out of the suburbs are being put to much greater use. These facts are taken as showing SPECTACLES CORON- e } OF HIRES ] ALWAYS TIRED? This great tonic soothes ragged rt i id t i .1. $1.00 and $1.60. that from the motorist's point of view central London has become an area to be avoided wherever possible, and that future arterial roads built around London would still further reduce the congestion in the centre of the city. Particular interest is attached to this aspect at the present time because it is an open secret that the Government is preparing a large-scale attack on London's road problems. Sir Chas. Bressey, appointed by the Government to study the problem and put forward concrete suggestions, has now reported to the Ministry of Transport. During the census 64,000 more private cars were counted than in 1935, 28,000 more pedal cyclists, and 25,000 more light commercial vehicles. Both omnibuses and horse-vehicles showed a decrease, by 4,800 and 9,090 respectively. Casein, manufactured chiefly from skim milk, is used in industry and is closely affected by industrial conditions. Argentina is the chief exporter of casein, accounting for about half of the total world export (818,000 cwts. in 1936). Prance is Argentina's closest competitor, the two countries together providing over 80 per cent, of the world's exports. The business of a shoemaker is of great antiquity. Romans wore cork soles to guard their feet from water, especially in winter. TIRED or NERVOUS?

At a certain church a beautiful lych-gate was put up, and over it was inscribed: • "This Is The Gate Of Heaven" While the paint was wet a large printed notice was attached with the "Please Go Round The Other Way" Someone Is now telling a story about an absent-minded professor who sent his wife to the bank and kissed his money good-bye.

He was told he would have to be up at 5 o'clock to clean and harness the horses and do various other jobs about the farm. After breakfast he could help around the house. The farmer was going through a long list of other duties when the applicant interrupted him to ask if by chance the soil of his farm happened to be clay. Farmer--"Why?" Applicant --"Oh, if it was clay I thought I might make a few bricks in my spare time." Mrs. Thistlebottom (to family v woman)--"Mandy, have you seen daughter Elsie's fiance?" Mandy (perplexed)--"No, ma'ai ain't been in the wash yet." Syrian bakers produce "bubblgl bread" in round, flat loaves, whioP look like astronomers' photograpM of the moon.

NEVER GO TO \ DINNER WITH A BOY AGAIN UNLESS I +IAVE SOME PHILLIPS' TABLETS IN MY PURSE Often "acid indigestion" is distressing to you--and offensive to others. But now there is no excuse for being guilty. You simply carry your alkalizer with you--and use it at the first sign of "upset" stomach. Simply take two tiny tablets of Phillips' Milk of Magnesia when out with others. Or--if at home--you can take two teaspoonfuls of liquid Phillips'. Both act the same way. Relief is usually a matter of seconds. "Gas," nausea, "heartburn," acid breath--all respond quickly. Just make sure you ask for "Phillips." ^Itching T i k_ ™RTtV*Ehi'n f M,n"u tch« eruptions, apply Dr. Dennis' pure, cooling, antisep- Uh--dries fast. Stops the most intense itch «g instantly.
