Oh, to be able to keep back the quick words that we so often speak, to tsuffer reproach and indignity and keep silent! But we only attain to this by constant vigilance, patience and prayer. It has remained for the Paris Surete, however, to discover in these tales something ot real practical value. The Surete is now giving its secret service men a daily course in English and American detective fiction, in order that they may gain pointers thereby. This will come as a surprise to many people who hare long been under the impression that the actual detective scoffs at the detective ot fiction and that the methods ot the former are very far removed trom those attribu- ted to the latter. But We live and learn.-Montreal Daily Star. The steady development ot the de. tective novel from a loosely written and highly improbable, not to say im- possible, story to a close-knit, logically reasoned, and ingeniously built-up work of fiction has been one ot the most interesting features in the recent history of fiction. Men ot the highest intelligence nowadays read detective stories for relaxation. And the lead. ing novelists ot the world are catering to their needs as never before.

The British Industries Fair, which will open simultaneously in London and Bidmingham on Feb. 20 and con- tinue until March 3, will be on a larger scale than ever before despite condi- tions of world trade. Exhibits are ex- pected to occupy at least 750,000 square feet, M, per cent. of which has already been booked. The London sec- tion will, as previously, include an ex- tensive exhibition ot textiles, pottery, leather and fancy goods, silver plate, sporting goods, glassware, giftwares and a greatly enlarged furniture and interior decorations section. The Bir. mingham division will be devoted to exhibits of the metal, electrical, hard. ware, construction and engineering in- dustries. I porters and manufacturers' repre- sentatives for agencies tor Canadian products. Importers and agents are interested therefore in receiving and examining Canadian trade papers and commercial periodicals. Unfor- tunately, the majority ot advertisers in such publications seldom publish the names ot their overseas agent, nor do they state whether they wish to receive applications from would- be agents. As a result. the over- sea importer does not know whether or not the advertiser is represented in his territory, and agents do not know whther there are any possi- bilities of securing agencies. In South Africa no reputable agent will apply tor an agency which is already placed, and rather than risk such offence, many agents will forgo ap- plication when in doubt as to the) position of any agency.

The boys started a caterpillar "tarm" three years ago, gathering an assortment of rare but. terfiiea, moths and caterpillars. This year they are raising about 1,000 caterpillars. which later will turn into butterflies and maths. The in- sects then are to be mounted and sold to eutotnoiogiata. Rare speci- mens have been sold to numerous collectors. Motseow.-The establishment of a national Academy of Arts, with head, quarters in Leningrad, has been de- cided upon by the government here.

Schoolboy, Breed Butterflies In New York State the increase in this teaching, generally known as vocational agriculture, has been from eighteen teachers and about 1,000 pupils in 1918 to 184 teachers and schools and teachers with more than 4,000 pupils in 1931, he says. Soviet to Form Farm Schools For Boys Prove Popular in U.S. Ithaca, N.Y.--The response to the teaching ot farming to farm and vii- lage boys in the United States from 1918 to 1931 shows an increase of 1,550 per cent in the number ot pupils, 700 per cent in the number ot schools and 500 per cent in the number ot teachers, says Professor R. M. Stewart, ot the New York State College of Agriculture. Mines Trade Coal for Wood In experiments with aphids, known as plant lice or ant cows, Professor Shun predetermined whether the aphids should be oviparous, that is. producing their young trom eggs, or viviparous, producing their young alive. Either kind "could be converted into the other by treating the par- ents with dinerent conditions ot light and temperature. He also pre-deter- minded whether they should be parthenogenetic. reproducing without from fertilized eggs. Scientist Controls Mode Of Insect Reproduction Ann Arbor, Mich.--Protetssor A. Franklin Shull, University of Michi- gan zoologist who, several years ago, succeeded in controlling the wing growth of certain insects, now can control the way in which they bear their young. The American parasites that ab tack borers closely related to the European borer have not yet shown any appreciable tendency to transfer their aciivity to the visiting pest. So the native parasites are being im- ported from Europe and Asia by the United Sta es Department of Atrricul- ture. One of the chief' reasons for the destructiveness ot the European bor. er in this country, Ficht points out, is the tact that it has‘een introduced here without the handicap ot its 113-. tive natural enemies which help' keep it in check in Europe. Lafayette, Ittd.-Hmported parasites are among the hopes ot central states farmers tor bringing the European corn borer under control, says G. A. Fichi. of the entomology department of the Purdue University agricultural experiment station. Already some ot the imported na- tural parasites of the borer are show- ing promise ot establishing themsel- Yes and becoming numerous enough in Indiana to aid in borer control, he says. Us. S.
