Neat little racks are provided to hang the shoes on, and ventilators in the back wall insure proper cooling.
 In these days of automobiles and motorcycles, something more than the old-fashioned stop, look and listen sign is necessary at railroad crossings. A striking experiement has resulted in the invention of the "automatic flag man." At the approach of train it rings a loud gong, and waves bright red disk by day and a red lamp by night So sensitive is the human eye to red and to motion that such warn ing can hardly escape notice.
 A dozen different types of aerial photographing appartus have been evolved in the short duration of the present world struggle. The latest de- velopment is found in the Fabbri auto matic aeroplane camera. With it 8 scout can take continuous photograph of the earth's surface 150 miles long. When operated on an aeroplane at an altitude of 2000 it will take into it's field a strip of ground 1900 feet wide.
 A piano and photograph combined has been invented. In operation rec ord is placed upon the photograph.

I did not let my wife into the secret, because I felt as thougf
