LARGEST KNOWN FOSSIL BONE
Discovery Made in Northern New
Mexico Is Interesting for More
Than One Reason

The largest shoulder blade of any
animal on record, ancient or modern,
has been discovered in San Juan basin
in northern New Mexico by John B.
Reeslde, Jr., of the United States
geological survey. This scapula bone
Is part of an immense extinct dinosaur
estimated to be over one hundred feet
long and markedly larger than any
previously known to have existed.
Charles E. Gilmore of the National
museum in Washington has assembled
the collection of pieces of this fossil
scapula and has found that the total
length of the bone is more than five
feet, nearly as tall as a man. This is
five times the length of the shoulder
blade of COW OF today.
The large fossil was found in the
part of the earth that was deposited
and formed in the Upper Cretaceous
era. and this indicates to the geologist
that the dinosaurs lived at later
geologic time than they had previously
supposed. This fact has created more
stir In geological circles than the
size of the fossil.
Dinosaurs We're large reptiles with
long necks little heads and brains.
and long tails. Their bodies look
like that of an oversized
elephant with hind legs longer than
Tore legs. They dominated the earth

Passes Its 7oOth Birthday.

In Old Castle, rich in the romance
and legends of Sunny Spain, Burgess
the capital of the ancient kingdom
has lost none of its picturesque charm
in the centuries since the days when
FL Cid drew his sword in rebellion
against the Moors. Burgos, partially
depopulated, but still clinging to its
traditions as all good Spanish cities
will, glories chiefly in the aura Of the
mighty Cid and in the possession Of
the historic Gothic cathedral, liveliest
in all the kingdom, writes Charlotte
Jordon In the New York Times.
The ancient cathedral, founded in
1921, recently celebrated its seven
hundredth birthday by enshrlning in
its nave the remains of the national
idol, El Cid, the hero of Castle about
whom time has woven many legends.

NJ. du Perron, who, in 1175, is said
to have submitted to the young King
Louis NVI, military "orgue" which
worked on a crank system and could
fire twenty-four bullets almost stimuli
taneously, and consequently could an
initiate a whole regiment in a few
minutes" according to a contemporary
record.
The new weapon appeared to be so
murderous that the king and his minis
tiers rejected it, and its inventor was
held up as an enemy of humanity:
The powers hostile to France tried to
secure the invention, but NJ. du Per
ron refused their offers from patriotic
motives and died in poverty.
