Simms, director of the museum. Place Fine Painting The painting is a gift from Ernest R:=Graham;, â€"and ~isâ€"oneâ€"unitâ€"of â€"a series of 28 presented by him. It is the work of Charles R. Knight, noted artist. 3 s The painting represents a scene on the eastern slope of the Rocky mounâ€" tains during the age of reptiles, some 60 million years ago, according to scientific estimates. â€"Dominating the picture are the common type of duckâ€" billed dinosaurs, while not far off are seen other duckbills of different speâ€" cies, known as hooded and crested dinosaurs. ~A little farther off appear the slender birdâ€"like dinosaurs, reâ€" sembling ostriches in appearance. â€"_These dinosaurs ranged in size from that of a large crocodile to that of an elephant, states Prof. Elmer S. Riggs, associate curator .of . paleonâ€" tology. They â€" flourished in North America at a period when the great planes area had recently been raised above the sea, when the Rocky mounâ€" tainsâ€"wereâ€"new,.and.when.the.. whole continent enjoyed a â€" semiâ€"tropical climate. Their characteristics have been learned fromâ€" fossil remains which have been found from Colorâ€" ado to Alberta.â€"â€" s Illinois Fire Losses During April Heavy Illinois fire losses during the month of April were $1,872,572, according to a report of State Fire Marshal S. L. Legreid just compiled. The largest loss due to a single cause was $257,215, due to spontaneâ€" ous combustion. This caused the fire marshall to urge citizens generally to participate in the spring cleanâ€"up (c&mpaigns, and to rid their premises rubbish and unnecessary accumuâ€" lations of combustible materials. _ The bandits forced his automobile off the road with their car, one of them pushed a gun into his side and demanded his money. Following his ctompliance with this demand, they also relieved him of his car.keys and Kkeys, and made their getâ€"away. Other leading causes were: elecâ€" tricity, $168,317; sparks on roofs, $80,894; chimneys, $68,947; exposure, Dwellings suffered most severely with a loss of $444,411. Other classes of property which figured high in the loss record were: Stores, $173,084; schools, $156,150; barns and stables, $122,448;~mills (saw and planing), $127,220. Highland Park Man Is Robbed in Wisconsin Nick Larson, a Highland Park resâ€" ident, was held up June 3, by two bandits who robbed him of $18 in cash and his keys. The holdâ€"up ocâ€" curred at about 3:15 a.m. on Highâ€" way 41 on the Kenosha side of the state line, near Cross lake. 7 of Dinosaur Types on Field Museum Walls Thursday, June 11, 1931
