really existed in the town of Kazan,

bakers apprentice. 1t is an interest
ing fact that opposite the bakers
was shOemaker's shop and in it.
while Cork was learning to bake
bread, the young Chaliapin was learn

GEMS TO BE SEEN IN SKY
Many Really Beautiful Things May Be
Observed With the Aid of an
Opera GLASS;

If you use an opera glass on dark
nights you can make the stars flash
out like gorgeous gems. says London
Answers.
All that need be done is to shake the
glass ever so little, either sideways
or up and down.
You will then find the line of sight
made by the stars image will resemble
a rich respondent string of diamonds,
rubies and emeralds; nor will the lovely
turquoise be absent.
BY making the opera glass describe
tiny circle, there will appear a neck
lace of glittering gems so brilliant as
to cause one to wonder how single
star could possibly produce such an
exquisite effect
Bright stars fairly near the horizon
should be selected. One of the best
for the purpose at this season Of the
year is Capella, now so conspicuous in
the northeast sky.
Capella. apart from its brilliance, is
recognizable by the small triangle of
faint stars close TO it.
Another excellent object for celestial
gem-making is the well-known Dog

heaven.

ETHIOPIAN KINGS,
Expedition Headed by Professor
Reisner Brings Back Story
of Lost Civilization.
LINE OF ITS RULERS TRACED
Ten Years Research Provides Rich
Collection for Harvard University
and Boston Museum-Get
Full List Of Rulers.

! Cambridge, Mass.-Discovery of the
tombs of 26 generations of Ethiopian
kings and the recovery of material
| buried for more than 1000 years,
! which makes it possible for the first
time to write the history Of Ethiopia,
were reported by the joint Egyptian
expedition of Hardware university and
the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. The
expedition, in charge of Professor
George A. Reisner of Harvard, was in
Egypt ten years. It's findings in part
have been reported from time to time.
Find Royal Cemeteries.
The discovery of the lost civilization
of ETHIOPIA was made at Napata, now
called Gebel Barkal. Naparata, the an
Gent capital of Ethiopia, lies in the
Anglo-E Egyptian Sudan, at the southern
end Of Dongola province. The royal
cemeteries were found outside the city.
At Nuri, to the south, on a low knoll
near the River Nile, the archaeolo
gists examined a group of pyramids
which proved to be the tombs of the
20 kings and 20 queens of Ethiopia
from $50 to $50 B. c., most of whose
names had been lost to human knowl.
edge.
Excavations gradually uncovered the
burial chamber of Tirhaqa, the king
of Ethiopia mentioned in the book Of
Isaiah, who was one of the five ETH
opian mOnarchs who ruled over Egypt,
and then one by one uncovered the
tOmbs of all the other kings, queens,
princes and princesses- of Ethiopia for
period Of more than four centuries
After the excavations at Nuri, four
of the greatest kings of Ethiopia were
still lacling-kinSs who, like Tirhaqa, |
had ruled Egypt as well as Ethiopia. |
In the third year of search these four |
kings With tlleir queens and indeed Sly
generations of their ancestors, were |
found at the second royal cemetery at |
El-Kur INV on the north of Napata.
Descend From Nonads.
1t was then discovered that the
royal family of Ethiopia had sprung
from tribe Of Libyan nomads who
had entered the province, then part
of Egypt. about 600 B. c. had become
revolted from Egypt and
finally, under Piankhy. conquered the
older country. From this sunscOrched
place five of the kings Of Ethiopia had
ruled Egypt and 1000 miles of the
Nile valley and had senr their ambas
sailors to the courts of Assyria and
western Asia
Careful study of the objects and in
found in these tombs has
riven the Harvard-Boston archaeolo-
,ists a full chronological list of the
,ings of Ethiopia during this period.

Fireproof Gas Tanks.

One of our leading rubber companies
has developed tireproof cover for
the gasoline tanks of airplanes, which
has been accepted by the government
for use on combat and mail planes
The cover was designed primarily for
combat airplanes for protection
against incendiary bullets, and is not
only fireproof but leakproof and crash
proof as well. The cover consists OF
sheet of soft but very tough rub
Der, one-half inch thick, laid on sew

LIBERALITY MAKES
 UNION STRONGER

New York, Aug. 11.-The Interna- tional Ladies' Garment Workers Union gave striking miners $Ioo,ooo, and in answer to one protest from the tens of thousands of these work CTS in this city, Justice, the official magazine of the garment workers, says:
 AS long as our union will act in this generous and liberal manner, 1t will endure and keep on growing spiritually and materially. I is be- cause we are generous and liberal that we are strong. We give, not be- cause we are charitable, but because we are actuated by the spirit of work ing-class solidarity. This spirit grows stronger every time we go deeper into our pockets to aid Our fellow workers. It makes for a stronger sense of unity; it creates a frmer bond of solidarity; it makes us even invincible against all possible danger and attack.
 Giving freely, literally, generous ly is not an index of weakness, but a sign of strength, health and an aug ury for an even. greater and more promising future"

BRITISH MINERS REJECT BOLSHEVIST
 PROPOSAL 883-l1S

(Internationa1 Labor News Service.)
 Washington, D. C., Aug. 1.-The British Miners Federation have re- jected a proposal to join with the Moscow International by vote of 883 to 11S.
 This action emphasizes the growth of the movement Ill British labor cir cles to clear labor of the suspicion of sympathy with bolshevism. The Red International has had many supporters in British labor circles and the movement as a whole has not come out as openly and decisively against soviet rule as has the Amer ican Federation of Labor.
 South Wales miners introduced the soviet proposal, the excuse being that the extremism prevailing in that re- zion was causing a loss of member ship. Mr. Hodges, the fFederation's s president, advised the South Wales unionists to spend their time instead in getting the dissenters back into the union.
 The federation conference is con sidering the executive recommenda ton to maintain the existing profit sharing scheme despite the low wages 1t gives to the majority of the men under present conditions. Lanca- shire has suggested as an alternative the aboFitoin of the system of calcu lating standard wage on a basis of standard profits and fixing profits to give a fair return on capital, propos- ing at the same time a joint control of selling prices and production costs.

PUBLIC HAS DUTIES
 IT CANNOT IGNORE

Philadelphia, Aug. 1I,-"The public
 cannot repudiate it's duties and at
 the same time insist on it's rights" de clares the Catholic Standard and
 Times, in a leading editorial which | exposes the unfairness of those who talk about "the rights of the public'' in strike times, but never refer to the
 duties of the public when no strike is on.
 "The public, of course, resents the Inconvenience to which it is put by reason of the strikes. It demands consideration of it's rights. But what does it do to secure the rights of the workingman?" asks the editor "1s 1t at all concerned that the laboreT receive his just hire, as long as 1t enjoys peace and well being? The object of society is to protect the rights of all, and to see that no in justice IS done to anyone If 1t neg lects it's duty it need not be surprised that the injured party will try to se- cure his own rights regardless of the welfare of society.
 If the community at large per sistently tolerates abuses and wrongs that section, in seeking relief from these abuses and wrongs, does not consider the inconvenience of the community.
 "The public must realize that if labor has duties towards society, so- ciety also has obligations towards labor. The public cannot repudiate its duties and, nevertheless, insist on its rights. Unless, therefore, we one and all unite in supporting the claims of the worker to a fair share of the goods of life, both material and spir- itual, we ourselves are to blame for the effects of his resentment for we are siding with those who refuse him justice and fair dealing
 "This side of the problem has been conveniently overlooked by the 1 public. It is time it should awaken to its grave responsibility" 11~r-
