OLD BUNDLES YIELD
Al FINE TURNER'S

LONDON, Jan. 1.-The National
gallery has been enriched in a roman
tic manner by the discovery of forty
seven fine Turner landscapes. These
pictures, which include both oil and
water-color paintings. had been hid
den for many years in odd corners of
the building, and their existence was
unsuspected until they were accident
ally discovered recently. Needless to
say. the find" Is one OF the greatest
artistic Importance, for IL sold In the
public auction rooms they would be
eagerly bought up at high prices: but
they will remain o national posses
sion.
The water.coloFs were In dusty old
portfolio. which was discovered when
a bookcase was removed from one
room to another in the gallery. They
are now on exhibition, having been
mounted and cleaned, but no retOuch-
ing was necessary.
The oil paintings were found In a
shabby bundle when one of the store
rooms was explored. They were nm
framed. and had the appearance OF
crinkled panels of mahogany veneer
But. after cleaning and mounting. they
were revealed as genuine Turner oil
paintings. There are ten OF the oil
paintings and 81 water colors. The
most important of the lot Is Windsor

HERALD BOOSTER EDITION
TOBG Issued aSaR Anniversary Edition, Marking Our
EighthBhthday- -NiI|BG ThOPOughaRdVa

Palestine has shown wonderful pro-
gress within the past two years, de-
yeloping in many ways that has at
tracted people all over the country,
and the development along material
lines has just fairly begun. The Her
aid has kept close tab on the onward
movement in local way, but it now
believes that the outside world should
be told of our prosperity and progress
in a concrete way, that the impor-
lance of this city and county may be
impressed on the rest of the country.
In order to carry this message in such
shape, the management of the paper
have decided to issue an Illustrated
Booster Edition of the Daily Herald
on an early date, to mark the eighth
birthday of the daily edition. AS we
feel proud of the success the paper
has achieved in these eight years
past, we expect to make the edition
one that will reflect credit on the
paper. on the management, and on the
city and county to be boosted in the
