' Washington.--A new oxygen-breathing device has Just been perfected here, intended to prevent the drowning of aviators trapped by seaplanes that crash in the water, or canght under their parachutes after a jump that brings them down Into a river or the sea. It is the joint work of Chief Gunner C. L. Tibbals, well known for his inventions of submarine ' safety devices, and Frank H. Hobson of the nnval bureau of construction and repairs. As yet it has received no offical name, but Is provisionally called the seaplane rescue safety vest Mr. Tibbals describes the new contrivance as "a sort of combined vest and belt, equipped with two long pieces of rubber hose through one of which the wearer inhales and through the other exhales; a nose clamp to prevent the sudden rush of water from suffocating him; a tiny canister containing soda lime, which serves to purify the breath while eliminating carbon dioxide, and a bottle contain* ing sufficient oxygen to keep a man afloat at least half an hour after he has jumped into the water from his 'chute. However, if it so happens that the flyer has not had a chance to use his parachute and therefore hits the water while in the plane, he can readily gain access tp a larger bottle always carried as an emergency measure in the ship. This will supply a human being for about an hour and a half."

Bets Four Billion Dollars Every YUr New York.--More than four billion dollars changes hands through commercialized gambling in the United States each year, according to a torvey made by Howard McLellan. The sums handled by gamblers in either New York or Chicago far'exceed those won and lost in the world's most famous center of legalized gambling, Monte Carlo, McLellan asserts. Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, New Orleans, Kansas City, St Louis, Clevelaod, Detroit, and Washington are close rivals of Monte Carlo in the volume o{ their gambling activities, lie asserts. MrLell&b's itemized tabulation of the nation's gambling bill is as follows: Baseball pools, $500,000,000; policy games (lotteries based on daily totals of bank clearings or other daily figures), $300,000,000; race track betting, $1,000,000,000; handbook betting on rares, $800.000,000; cards, dice and similar games qI chance, $1,000,000,- (XH>; bucketshops, $500,000,000, The figures, arrived at through an examination of courtroom testimony in local gambling Investigations, a study of income tax figures, police court records, books of the leading race tracks, and other authoritative sources, represent an underestimate, since they exclude many minor gambling activities, MebeUan states. . *25-2 FOR RENT OR SALE--A modern 8- FOR SALE--Dodge Standard Six sT- house and gamp on Richmond dan.

Take a good quality of white or cream colored paint and make it thin with turpentine. Apply this to the statue with great care so that no paint settles in the crevices to impair the modeling. The statue can then be kept clean by wiping carefully with a wet cloth. Many statues in the Corcoran Art gallery, Washington, are treated in this <m'.L i ... AUCTION!

According to reports, two of the tallest buildings in New York city bend as much as six inches at the top of their towers, three Inches In either direction from the ueutral fixed position, sayB Popular Mechanics Magazine. Designers of a tall building soon to be built in Chicago allowed for a sway of two inches in either direction. CONVENTION OF JUNIOR OFFICERS AT BELOJT, WIS. The second annual junior officers' convention of the Beloit Area Council, Boy Scouts of America, will be held at the Hilton hotel in Beloit on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 29 and 30. Junior assistant scoutmasters, senior patrol leaders, patrol leaders, as sistant patrol leaders, scribes and any other Scout approved by the scoutmaster are eligible to attend. The schedule is from noon oil Friday until 9 p. m. and on Saturday the schedule is from 8 a. m. until 4:30 p. m. The purpose of this course is to train the junior officer so that he may better lead his patrol and troop. A warrant will be issued to each junior officer who complies with the necessary requirements. Several Scouts from McHenry attended a similar meeting at Aurora last year and received much genuine benefit from it in the way of instruction and experience. Meals and lodging will be at the Hilton hotel and conference sessions will be held in the hotel and nearby meeting places, while' headquarters will be the Scout office rooms across the street from the hotel. Language Peculiarities English bus twenty-six alphabet letters, twenty-one for consonants and five for vowels. Knglisb has some forty-four sounds, twenty-four consonantal and twenty vocalic. To represent these forty-four sounds in spelling, English has well over 400 separate orthographic combinations, making an average of ten possible spellings per sound. What can you do with i language like that? And yet there is a charm about it.--Janet Rankin Aiken, Lo tfee Bookman. Make* Healthy Plant* Charles Darwin began a long series of experiments in 1861 which proved conclusively a fact stated as long ago «g 1799, says Nature Magazine, that a better, healthier plant conies from seed produced when pollen is brought from another flower. Two of nature's pollen carriers are insects and wind. UNElXPECTED COLD WEATHER HITS MID-WEST SECTION One of the most severe November cold snaps ever experienced visited McHenry and vicinity last week and continued for several days. The mercury slipped down to the below zero mark with two below and even^ five below registered on many reliable thermometers. The cold snap came suddenly and caught many unprepared. Many cars were frozen and gasoline service stations were rushed to supply antifreeze solutions. The creek and ponds froze quickly and the young folks enjoyed some good skating over the week-end. Although the weather predictions are for warmer weather, the cold winds continue to blow and it looks as if Thanksgiving would be a real old-fashioned one with snow and ice.
