The Japanese public is bitterly disappointed, observers say, as they feel that Japan has not only lost face abroad, but even wry much more within Japan. When the Olympiad was awarded to Tokyo in 1936, there was the greatest rejoicing through the na- tion, because it was considered a foreign admission of Japan's nth- letie equality with other nations.

The moisture was maintained at the level of 45 per cent. saturated atmosphere and the crackers. when removed, tasted fresh and crisp. He said that the formulas would make possible the preserva- tion of motion picture films with- out their gelatinous surfaces dry- ing and cracking, by keeping them sufficiently damp in tin boxes. Compound of Two Salts He found that two salts, ordin- ary borax and Glauber salt, would absorb moisture in exactly the correct amounts. Dr. Ralph H. McKee, of the chemical engineering department of Columbia University, made pub- lie last week patented formulas of salt compounds to regulate auto- matically the moisture in a box of tobacco, preventing spoilage and retaining indefinitely the flavor of the leaf. Dr. McKee said that the formu- las made possible the preservation of motion picture tilms and also of foods.

As his jaw re- laxed when he fell asleep the ear- borundum in his gold teeth acted as a crystal detector and inter- cepted programmes from the near- by station. When the music wak- cned him, he switched on his bed lamp, partially short-cii'cuiting the bed frame aerial and cutting off the programme. He could switch himself on and off! I go to sleep I hear radio music. It's getting me down. I ean't sleep." His Teeth Partly Responsible The chief engineer was a pa- tient man and curious. And his visitor didn't look crazy. So he started asking questions. He learned that the worried one was employed grinding paper knives, that he lived near WOR’s trans- mitter, that he read in bed, and that he had gold fillings in his teeth. And a great light dawned. The facts, apparently so unrelat- ed, fitted together perfectly.

His Head Was A Radio Set “Madame Curie," by Eve Curie. 'l‘nnlllted by Vincent Sheena. 898 pp. Toronto: Doubleday, Dor- an and Company, 215 Victoria ONTARIO ARCHIVES TORONTO Eve Curie’s biography of her mother is fascinating as a record of treientifie research. Though written by one who lived from habyhood in the atmosphere of a laboratory, it makes clear and vivid and concrete to non-techni- cal readers the story of the dis- covery of radium and the devel.. opment of that knowledge which Mme. Curie carried on so bril- liantly until the end of her life. lta real import, however, is the story of the woman whose life was all but synonymous with that history. "MADAME CURSE" By Eve Curie Mme. Curie's daughter prefaces to her biography a brief passage on the almost mythical life of her mother. The little Polish girl had to surmount poverty and preju- dice. She did so by dint of almost incredible effort and with no ran- cor, She rearranged her life to admit a great love and a comrade- ship which would seem almost unique in its breadth and depth of understanding. Then, devastated by the sudden death of her be- loved husband, she closed that door to life, and took up alone the work they had started and carried forward together. She was honored by kings and queens, scientists and common people. She rejected wealth and tried in vain to turn aside fame. She out- witted blindness, and more than once she seemed to outwit death itself to carry on her work until, nearing the end of her sixties. The glowing element, radium, the glowing element. radium, which she herself had discovered was a factor in her own end.
