NR | \ ~ if they took to the, air an War Propaganda Poster Contest Young' Ontario Artists "Are Trying Their Skill in Special Competition Sponsored . by C. N. E, War propaganda is the latest recreation of young Ontario are tists, Hundreds of boys and girls are applying their skill and im: agination to designing entries in a Canadian National Exhibition poster competition being held to arouse further interest in the im- portance of intra-Empire trade to the war effort. Scores of finished posters are reportedly being received, among them striking sketches of native workers in Ceylon tea gardens, Australian sheep ranchers, the smoking chimneys of England's potteries and "other glimpses of the Empire's important agricul tural enterprises that bear testl- mony to *the imagination of the young artists, most of whom have never been outside the Dominion, "Plans are underway to print and publish in quantity the out- standing poster," said H. M, 8, Parsons of the British Empire Overseas Section of the Toronto Eoard of Trade which is spon- soring the contest. "It will be us: ed," he said, "to develop Empire trade in Canada where every dol- lar spent on such Empire goods as tea, woal, linen, tin, china and rubber, which the British Government is either controlling or "pushing" yields credits for the purchase of supplies essen- tial to a full prosecution of the war." A number of prize winning posiers in the competition, whicn has awakened immense interest amorg students, teachers and pav- ents, will" be selected for exhibi- tion in the British Empire Build- ing during the C. N. E. ey, New Minefields. LL Locaticn of new minefields laid ~by--the -British- navy between -the- Orkney Islands and Iceland and - between Iceland and Greenland is shown on the map.

ULTRA-VIOLET TELESCOPE A telescopo invented by the dir- pctor of General Electric's light re- search laboratory at Cleveland, makes it possible for the human oye to seo more than 320 miles. Its construction is essentially simple --- lenses and a screen lo receive ultra-violet rays. Nothing but ultra- violet rays come into tho telescope; put a machine to discharge such rays anywhere within the horizon, and the telescope will pick them up. The invention may some day be of uso in ¢onvoying darkened troopships, for the. pilots could signal back and forth with ultra- violet light, free from any danger that enemy subiiarines would seo them, OXYGEN FOR DIESELS Widespread uso of diesel-engined airplanes has been brought a step closer through - successful exporl- ments with a new oxygen boosting method of facilitating the takeoffs. , Experiments showed that by feed- ing tho oxygen Into the intake air of a Diesel engine, its power oult- put could be increased by 55 per cent. for a fow minutes without do- tonation and without undesirablo strain on the engine.
