One Of the remaining puzzles OF the
var is the much discussed mystery
tower" which is still closely guarded in
Shoreham Harbor, although the tower
itself has been thrown open to the pub
lie. There is one room which remains
bolted and barred and not even the sem
try is allowed to enter 1t despite the
fact that the tower is to be scrapped.
Major E. F. Sexton obtained the priv
ilege of making the tower. public at
traction for the raising Of money for
charity. but the visitors who climb its
17S feet can get little idea Of what 1t Is
all about and can only speculate on the
mystery as to what part 1t was ex-
pected to play in fighting the Germans
Two of its interesting features are the
engine and control rooms. One Of the
is fitted with B. large
switchboard from which electric cables
extend. The plant generates Aufficient
current to supply the whole tower with
light. On the top are mounted two huge
searchlights and two Ave inch guns.
The tower is one of several, construc-
tion of which was started by the British
Admiralty. 1t Is a huge concrete mass
which required eighteen months to build
and cost more than f500,000. One sup
is that it was an -anti-subma-
rine device to be towed to the Straits OF
Dover and sunk in order to trap UNDER
seA boats. probably by highly magnet
:zed cables. But the war ended before
this tower was completed. AS yet no.
body has been found who will tuy the

s. The directors of the Louvre have an
nounced that the finest collection Of
statuary in the world soon will be filmed
and shown to the public. The leaders of
French art and science. particularly
Baron d'Estournelles de Constant. long
have insisted that proper filming would
enhance the value of the national COL
lection a thousandfold. They point out
that the beauty of great sculpture usu-
ally depends upon the illusion Of move
ment conveyed. and that this depends
largely upon the light in which it is
placed.
The superiority of the Louvre collec-
ton Is partly due to the careful placing
of the statues under diluted sunlight,
which is stationary except as the sun
moves from east to west. The most
sensitive modern film camera controls
the light almost absolutely and will, IL
properly operated, bring out the latent
''soui" in each dead masterpiece.
The Louvre directors have already ex-
perimented with the famous seventeenth
century head OF Henry ~, which. slow
ly revolved before the camera, displays

Robert Esnault- Pelterie, whose Con

"Only one discovery is necessary.
namely, some physicist must master
the nature of the energy given off by
radium. ,Tten it will not be Ave years
before exploration Of the moon, Venus

M. Esnault-PeIterie begins by saying
that he deals only in planetary vehicles

Aeronautics have taught us much in the

The mystery of a child's disappear
ance which has stirred northern France
for over a month has been cleared up
by the finding of the mutilated body of
two-year-old Pauline Picard In spot
less than mile from her Brittany home.
The police believe that the murderer Is
farmer of the neighborhood, who was
admitted to an insane asylum when he
suddenly became crazed on hearing that
the little girl had been returned safe
and sound to the arms Of her parents.
A fortnight or SO after Pauline dis
appeared the Picard family read in the
papers that a. smiling child had been
found on lonely road and taken in
charge by a nearby convent. The
parents went to the convent and de-
clared that the child was theirs beyond
all doubt. although even on their return
to the Picard farm they could not induce
the little girl to speak or give any evil
dence of recognizing them.
While gendarmes were taking the
family's deposition as to the child's
identity ,neighbor named Martin
walked in and asked II 1t was true that
theochild had been returned, and when
he was assured that there was no doubt
about it he laughed Historically and ran

When a tiny corpse, headless, but
wearing Pauline Picard's clothing. was
discovered later they remembered the
incident and the police went in search
of Martin. They learned he had been
sent to an asylum ravfng maniac.
There is still a mystery. however. as
to the identity of the living child which
the Picards believed to be their own.
