not think he had acted in good
faith when ne urged the lnternation-
al union to assist in the prossman $

bisects the Atlantic. extends from Ice
land as far south as f1fty-three degrees
OF south latitude. with a slight and
quite inexplicable break just under the
equator. The ridge runs almost parallel
with the eastern contour of North and
South America, which. in turn, as the
ordinary map will show. roughly cor
responds with the western contour OF
Europe and Africa. From time to time
the ridge rises above the surface OF the
water, as in the Azores group, st.

Cunha and Cough island.
Having assembled the eastern and
descended the western slope of this
mid-Atlantic ridge. we should again
traverse plains Of grayish ooze far
more extensive than any level land
tract known to geographers, and as we
approached the American coast we
should gradually pass through. in re-
verse order, the zones of life traversed

coast OF America the slope is much
more gradual than on the western

How One of the Worlds Greatest Song

Many years ago maid employed by
Miss Lundberg. famous dancer of the
Royal Opera in Stockholm. was given
a holiday by her mistress and set out
TO take a walk. Passing a shabby little
house in the poorest section OF the city
she heard a child's voice, which seem
ed to her wonderfully fresh and beauti-
full. and, looking up. she saw a little
girl sitting near the window singing TO
a pet kitten In great excitement she
rushed TO her mistress and told her of
the exquisite voice she had heard
Miss Lundberg was somewhat skep-
teal. but finally went to the house and
heard the sweet song. She. too was
convinced of the great natural beauty
of the cbiId's voice and reported II to
Croeiius, the singing master OF the
opera.
Croelius was also somewhat skepti-
cal at first, but at Miss Lundbergs re
quest he. too, went and. standing on
the sidewalk. heard the child sing.
Enraptured in turn. he told Count
Buke. manager OF the Royal opera. and
arrangements were made by which the
little girl sang for the count

UNDER The OCEAN

Atlantic are apt TO imagine that under

Of the Atlantic to America, starting
from the shores OF western Europe, we
should in effect be travelling through a
succession OF new countries. Not only
would the surrounding physical condi-
lions vary as we advanced. but the
animal and plant life would vary in
correlation with the altering physical
conditions.
Walking farther and farther toward
the depths OF the Atlantic, we should
soon lose all sight or the algae. and the
shallow water fish-tEe plaice and sole,
