Be at Synthetic Hippo Finds Place in Chicago Museum A hippopotamus is one animal which, once dead, cannot be made to appear very lifelike, according to' zoologists and taxidermists of Field Museum of Natural History. This is because of peculiarities of its skin. This week however, a hippopotamus which looks as lifelike as if it had just come out of a stream in Africa to sun itself was placed on exhibition in Stanley Field Hall of the museum. This is one case where synthetic goods are far superior to genuine, it was explained by Dr. W. H. Osgood, curator of zoology at the museum. However, a real hippo, to begin with, goes into the making of a synthetic one, Dr. Osgood added. Thus the reproduction. of a hippo- potamus now occupying a position of state in the museum immortalizes Thomas G. Hippo, late resident of the zoo of the Cincinnati Zoological Park association, who, through an accident in his home there, came to an un- timely end at the age of 21. After a seemly period of mourning, the Cin- cinnati association presented the re- mains of the unfortunate Thomas to the museum, that his spirit might carry on his life work of acquainting the public with facts concerning his illustrious family. Thus came to Thomas the distinc- tion of being the first hippopotamus, and for that matter the first large ani- mal of any kind, to be reproduced in "celluloid." What is more, his 're- production, according to Dr. Osgood, is the first lifelike preparation of a hippopotamus ever shown in any mu- seum. The reproduction of the hippo was made by Leon IL. Walters, taxiderm- ist of Field Museum, inventor of a special process of employing cellu- lose-acetate in taxidermy, hitherto used by him only in the reproduction of reptiles, the wholly naked parts of the faces of certain monkeys, and the nosepads, lips and similar hairless areas of certain other animals. The largest previous use of the method was in Mr. Walters' reproduction of a group of crocodiles on exhibition at the museum. Christian Science Church "Soul" was the subject of the Lesson Sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, Sunday, August 14. The Golden Text was from Psalms 116:7, "Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the Lord hath dealt bounti- fully with thee." Among the citations which comprised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: "O God, thou art my God; early will IT seek thee: my thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary. Because thy loving kind- ness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee. My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful "lips (Psalms 63:1-3, 5). The Lesson-Sermon also included the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy: "Soul has infinite re- sources with which to bless mankind, and happiness would be more readily attained and would be more secure in our keeping, if sought in Soul. Higher enjoyments alone can satisfy the crav- ings of immortal man" (p. 60). al
