These Navzis To Be Worn Down With Mnimum Lives Lost Allies Reveal War Strategy Jealously Guarded Secret The art of ivory carving is a jealouslyâ€"guarded secret, _ known only to a few families and handed down from father to son, In one workshop the same families have worked for the same family of the owners since the business was started about 1630. . The working day is restricted to four hours, as the intense concentration and tae extreme caro required impose a great strain both on the nervous syslem and on the eyesight ~f the workers. The tools used are simple and are usually manufactnred by the workmen themselves. Tucked away bohind the Juma Masjid, the great mosque in Delhi city, adys the Indian Press Union, there flourish the ivory carvers for whose work Delhi is famous. The visitor will find displayed pieces of ivory carving many of which have taken 10 to 15 years to comâ€" plete. They range in price from & few rupees to as much as Rs. 10â€" ,I00 for trinket boxes and stands on which the story of the Ramayâ€" ana or the life of Krishna are illns trated.

The purpose is to avoid the burning of healthy tissue which occurs when Xâ€"rays have to pass through such tissues to reach canâ€" cerous growths deeper in the body. nc (Jume GERMâ€"ARRESTING GUmMm The tubs is made to be inserted into the mouth or any other body cavity. In this way it puts the rays in almost direct contact, within a fraction of an inch, of cancerous growths. The tube is long and slender, about the size and proportions of a child‘s toy horn. The rays are produced at the tip, in the area that would be the moutkpicce of the horn. Xâ€"rays can be taken iiié;;ll'yâ€"by- the mouthful by means of a tube newlyâ€"dev »loped. It has been discovered that the death of human blood corpuscles ecan be "almost indefinitely postâ€" poned" by extremely low temperaâ€" tures beause of retarded reaction rates of matter in the region of "sbsolute zero."

This serum. is the waterâ€"clear part of the blood of horses which have been artificialâ€" ly infected with flu. It is dried and inhaled. Extensive tests in Russia have shown the snuff not only prevented flu, but helped to cure it. SNUFF CURES FLUV One war spectre, another worldâ€" wide flu epidemic can apparently be prevented by a new kind of Russian snuff. ~ The war has commenced to have its effects on conferences of an international character, one of the first to suffer being the third Inâ€" ternational Congress for Microâ€" biology, which opened at New York on September 4. Leading biologists and bacteriologists from various countries were unable to attend, among _ them _ scientists from England, France and Gerâ€" many. WAR CHECKS SCIENCE ’A campaign for $3,000,000 to carry on war time as well as its present peaceâ€"time work will be inaugurated by the Canadian Red Cross Society on November 13. The announcement was made at the emergency meeting at Rideau Hall, Ottawa, by the chairman of the executive committee, Norman Sommerville, K.Cg. Representaâ€" tives from Vancouver to Halifax were present. Lord T weedsmuir, president of the Canadian Red Cross, preâ€" sided and said, "we feel now as thougfi we are entering a long and dark tunnel and we have to go through. There is a light at the end of it though, because we have a clear conscience."

He told some very good stories, but, unfortunately, they cannot be published." A lecturer, suspecting that pubâ€" licity would lessen attendance at repeat performances, asked the reâ€" porter of a local paper not to publish his address. "Buck!" said the other. "Why she just coughed!" "What happened? Why, she‘s a demor bucker. Didn‘t you see her "What happened?" asked one of the boys, as he picked up the tenâ€" derfoot. They produced one of their best and the newcomer mounted it. In twelve seconds, after some remarkable gyrations, he was hurled to the ground.

But, at $2,000,00 per train, the thought is hard to try and change from a wish +~ a fact. Before Placed in America It has often been suggested that the Canadian Pacific and Canadian National Railways should put fast luxury trains in service between Toronto and Montreal. That huge amount, says W, L. Clark in the Windsor Star, is for one single train not for a fleet of trains, It means that a huge chunk of capital is required before such a train can be placed in sc. sice. It also reveals some of the problems the railways have to face in meetâ€" ing the demands of traffic and serâ€" vice. Apart from the horror of the killâ€" ed and injured in the wreck of the Southern Pacific‘s ack streamlinâ€" er in Novada, there is brought home the fact that a luxury train costs from $1,500,000 to $2,000,000.

In 1547 a sow and her 6 piglets were arraigned before the court at Sevigny, France, accused of having killed and eaten an infant. The sow was condemned to death, but the piglets were pardoned on account of their youth. In England severe sumptuary laws were enacted in the reigns of Edward III, Edward IV and Henry VIII. For long a man dared not eat what he fancied. The poorer classâ€" es, for instance, were forbidden to eat certain foods and wheaten bread.

The recent Nazi view that overâ€" eating is a form of high treason reâ€" calls the fact that in England not so many years ago overeating, if not high treason, was legally a crime. Until July, 1856, it was tochâ€" nically unlawful for a man to }ave more than two courses at dinner and supper, although upon specâ€" ially festive accosions he might be permitted three.
