 "Ah, yes. you have puzzled many" said Mrs. Hippo.
 'I do not see why should" said MT. Hippo. T am not puzzled be- cause I do not see peoples tongues when their mouths are closed and yet catch sight of their tongues when their mouths are open.
 T do not see why they are sur prised."
 ''It is because you look quite gentle when you don't show your tusks, but when you open your mouth and show your tusks you look so suddenly dan- gerous," explained Mrs. Hippo.
 "Well," said MT. Hippo, T can be dangerous if people are not nice to me- That Is true enough"
 1T suppose said Mrs Hippo, "that every one knows that pygmy hippo is small-sized hippo. But we're regular kind of animal. By that I mean that we're not simply small-sized hippopotami but that we're regular family of animals, only people can know us by seeing that we look like big hippopotami and yet are ever so much smaller.
 'Some children once thought we looked like chocolate bars made up into animals. That was a funny thought, but there was sense to 1t, too. We are chocolate colored."
 "Ah,' said MT. Hippo, 'T am very happy in the zoo. like the life here. I enjoy the food have to eat. I am pleased with your companionship and I find no fault with life"
 'I feel the same way about life and the zoo and my food and you," said Mrs. Hippo.

FIRST GERMAN sKYscRAPER
City of Hamburg to Have 16-Story BuiIding-More Expected
 to Follow.

Hamburg, Germany.-The first sky scraper in Germany will soon be com- structed in the old business section of Hamburg. It will be sixteen stories high, topping the highest building in Germany at this time by five stories.
 Architects believe the construction of this building will institute the era of skyscrapers In Germany, and ex- pect to see number of similar build ings go up within the next few years.
 Unusual difficulties must be over- come. The city water plant is equipped to furnish water to tie eleventh story, and this brought up the ques- tion of fire danger and insurance, as well as the probability of financial loss in view of difficulties in renting offices on the five. higher floors.
 Despite these difficulties the pro moters have secured permission to erect the structure, provided the building does not destroy the archi- tectural symmetry" of the streets. k

Eufala, Okla. = Civilization gets them all the old wild reservation In- dians are fast passing.
 One of the last of the old regime has just shown the devitalizing ef- fects of the white mans habits.
 Ellen Perryman, full-blood Creek woman, who was one of the principal leaders of the famous Snake upris- ing of the Greeks, has conferred with Indian agency officials at Muskogee in regard to the purchase of a ''fiver."
 She has now lost all of her ani- mostly toward the agency people," against whom she fought so fiercely. Instead of greeting them with toma- hawk, as she did in the days of the rebellion, she recently planted a re- souding kiss on the cheeks of several of them-much to their embarrass- ment-and her husband, who accom- panied her, seemed not to mind this caprice of his spouse in the least.
 Ellen now lives on a. farm in Me Intosh county, and is contented and peaceful, it is said.

alloying elements used in alloy struc- tural steels, such as automobile steels. The bureau conducted studies directed toward devising means for utilizing ex- tensive deposits of low-grade iron ores that cannot be smelted profitablyN by present methods. These studies in- cluded investigations of the low-grade iron ores of the Birmingham (Ala) district, the manganiferous iron ores of the Lake Superior district, and the iron and steel situation in the Pacific Coast states.
 The cost of production of zine, with the standard retort process, is now so high that it endangers the position of zine as cheap metal. Plans have been formulated for an investigation of pro- posed methods for the electrothermic metallurgy of zinc, with view to in- creasing the recovery of metal and low er1ng production costs. The results of an investigation regarding the losses of mines in the tailings of zine metals in the Wisconsin district indicate that the use of concentrating tables of certain type will greatly increase re- covery. 1t is estimated that this prac-

Important results in the utili- zation of the low-grade and complex ores of copper, lead, silver and zinc, which constitute great problem in the mineral development of Utah, Colorado and other Rocky mountain states, are promised by the utilization of the chloride volatilization process. The sul- phur dioxide teaching of porphyry cop per ores of Arizona holds the promise Of important developments flor the mineral industry of the Southwest
 Recovery of Coal From Refuse.
 As about one-quarrer of the bitum- inous coal produced in the United States is used in industrial power plants, the waste of unburnea coal and coke in the ashes from boiler plants has been investigated by the bureau. It has been possible to re- cover the greater part of the unburned fuel by washing the ashes on a con- centrating table. As the result of a study of coal wishing problems in the state of Washington, one mine has built table washing plant to treat
 
 a pile of refuse amounting to more than one million tons, estimated to contain 100000 tons of recoverable coal of coking quality.
 The bureau conducted studies re- garding the use of liquid oxygen as an explosive. In cooperation with the Department of Agriculture an in- vestigatien was made of the use of cellulose from corn cobs in the manu- fracture of dynamite. Investigations were conducted to determine the best and safest conditions for the industri- al use of 100000 pounds of picrfc acid, held as a surplus by the War department. During the year the bu- reau called attention to the danger in using certain low-grade foreign det- orators, which had been coming into the country in large numbers.
 A universal gas mask has been de yeloped by the bureau for protecting the wearer against all poisonous gas

PYcMY HIPPoPoTAMi

"When a person wishes to speak of number of little people the person says children but when only one is spoken of the person says .child.'" " said Mrs. Pygmy Hippopotarnus.
 But when any one wishes to speak of two of us they say 'Hippopotami,' which means more than one hippopot- anus.
 'I do hope I have been clear"
 T think so,' said MT. Pygmy Hip popotamus, 'but let us call each other Hippo for short"
 "A good idea," said Mrs. Hippo.

Cambridge, Mass.-Young men en- tering Harvard this year were remark ably free from serious physical de fects, Dr. Rogers I. Lee. professor of hygiene, found in examination, it was announced recently. Less than l per cent of the men examined were found to have neglected teeth, poor eyesight or enlarged, diseased tonsils.
 Dr. Lee attributed the freedom from physical defects "to the thoroughness of the physical examinations of the schools, and to the intelligent interest of the laity in matters that concern the health of their children"

Lemoore, Cal.-Attracted by the street lights shining through the dense fog, thousands of wild geese took refuge on the city streets, their cries keeping resi- dents awake the greater part of the night. Street cleaners ran home for guns and killed a num- Der of the birds. People living in the downtown district said hundreds of the birds were sit ting on the pavements while the air was alive with them. Late merrymakers added hunting to their sport.

not exceeding GIT per cent con- centration i'll air where safety lamp will burn. A fireman's gas mask for the use of train crews in railroad tun- nels was devised. Investigations made in connection with the problem of ventilation, of vehicular tunnels showed that from 20 to 30 per cent of the heat of the gasoline used as a fuel for au- tomobile engines is lost in the form of unburned gases in the exhaust. due to improper carburetor setting.
 Investigations at the ceramic ex- pertinent station at Columbus, Ohio, indicate that some American clays will yield products closely approach ing the English china clay. At the same station it has been demonstrate ed that better graphite crucibles can be made with the use of domestic bonding clay than have hitherto been made with imported clays.
 Classifying Export Goals.
 During the year the bureau, in CO., operation with three of the largest seaboard coal exchanges, developed scientific systems of classifying ex- poN coals into pools by systematic sampling and analysis to supersede the arbitrary classifications used in war time. Further progress was made in the investigation for preparing and utilizing Ignite, which constitutes the greater part of the nations fuel re- sources.
 The bureau completed work on prep saratfon and analysis of special alloy steels for the navy. A comprehensive report on recent developments in cleo tric brass melting was finished
 Methods for preparing caustic mag nesia were investigated, which deter mined> that high-grade magnesia can be made from some varieties of mag nestle hitherto believed to be unsuit- able for this purpose. The bureau in- vestigated dolomite as, a substitute for the more costly. magnesite in pre- pairing refractories. and demonstrated that there can be obtained from Ohio dolomite a product superior in mag nesia content to imported Canadian magnesite.
 More experimental work on mining explosives, with reference to increased safety and efficiency, was performed Plans were initiated for an interna tional conference on the standardiza- tion of mine rescue apparatus. Metn- ods for reducing losses of anthracite in mining operations were studied. Timbering methods for metal mines were instigated.
 In the course of the year the bureau trained 12,525 miners in, rescue and first-aid methods, the largest num- Der so trained in any fiscal year since the beginning of the training work.
