fifth and Conway Tearle, which, it
has been announced, will be featur-

lowing chance meeting, falls in

peace than in war and more people die
from carbon monoxide poisoning in
New York than anywhere else in the
University Wednesday told the National
Association of Police and Fire Surgeons
in annual convention.
Vertical exhaust pipes on all motor
vehicles would remedy this situation,
Prof. Henderson said, as they would
direct the gases upward and "out of
the level of the air we breathe"
DIR. Charles Morris, chief medical ex-
amner of this city, asserted that only
deaths from vehicular accidents ex
ceeded those from carbon monoxide
poisoning. including accidental and
suicidal gas asphyxiations. He esti-
mated that an automobile contaminates
a volume of air equivalent to its space
and height and 100 to 200 yards in
length each minute. He told Of taking
air samples on Fifth avenue which
showed a high percentage of monoxide
DR.. Harry NJ. Archer of the New
York Fire Department told the dele
gates that anything could be done with
living bone that could be done with
wood and illustrated the use of living
bone screws in joining fractures. He
told of putting an addition on the chin
of a young man who feared that his
appearance would initiate against his
success in life. He said that this latter
operation was SO successful that the
young man was in a fair way of be-
coming one of the leading members

Canadian Ends Trip From Nova
Scotia to New York.

NEW YORK, October 10.-A sun
tanned Canadian voyager came un-
heralded to the barge Office at the
Battery Wednesday.
Forty-three days ago George H. G..
Smyth of Toronto, 33 years old, left
Sidney, Cape Breton Island, Nova
Scotia, ,in a 15-foot open canoe. He
padded 1850 miles in salt water, and
claims to have set record. The feat
was performed on a wager.
Although driven ashore several
times during the storm off the New
England coast last week, Smyth said
he was in danger only once, when he
was dumped overheard by a huge
wave at the mouth of the kennebec
River.
At another time. he said, he had to
toss overheard zoo pounds of provi-
sions and supplies to prevent swamp
ing of the canoe. Smyth expects to
sail for Liverpool or Southampton
and then to Rome in a few days.
