SIMPLE METHOD Of NAVIGATING TOLD
U. 5. Nay 01iesr Outlines New Sea Steering Rules

San Diego, Cal. Feb. :4. N-A new method of navigation, which its inventor declares Is so simple it can be mastered by a grammar school boy with an hours instruc- ton has been devised by Comman- der P. V. H. Weems of the United States Navy.
 The equivalent involves merely a bubble sextant for getting star sights. 2 watch set for Greenwich, sidereal or star time, pair of diyiders and a sheet or two of paper.
 The sheets are ruled off in straight lines with curves super imposed. The curves are the main springs of the system and were worked out by Weems from study of nautical almanacs and star de- clinations. .,..--
 Any two fixed stars may be used in navigating, Commander Weems says. So far he has worked ou. charts for navigating by Polaris and Capella and by Polaris and Are turus. He Is now preparing charts for other stars.

DEMOCRATS STILL WATCH WEATHER
Feel That They Nay Need Um'
 brellls in Texas

Houston. Tex. Feb. e4.-lR- Weather records for the last 3s years indicate that delegates to the democratic national convention fin June will need umbrellaa and light clothing.
 If the convention. which opens June 20. lasts five days. the literal- ly wet question may require atten- ton on at least two days. During the s9-year period, rain fell IT times on June 26; IT times on June 27; 13 times on June 2S; Il times on June ea. and ten times on June 30. The average rainfall for the five days was Night. however, being only about one-tenth of an inch for the 39 years. .-..
 The average maximum tempera- ture for the five days is 9:.5 de- grees. The afternoons are hot but the nights are cool. for the average minimum temperature is 73.5 de- greeA reducing to S3 degrees the mean temperature for the average 24 hours late in June.
 Relief from the heat Is promised by the prevalence of winds from the Gulf of Mexico, less than 50 miles away. The sea hreezes have no ob- structions in their sweep to Houston, for the country between here and the gulf is flat.
 Artificial relief from heat will be provided in the construction of the new convention hall. The building will have heat-resisting roof, and scores of electric fans will circu- late the air in the auditorium.

SANC1UARIES ADD
 ID GAME SUPPLY
l@, Despite llcrtlse h Nlmha
 Of Hanters

New York. Feb. 24. M-Penetra- tjon of the family automobile, bri.- ting with papa's shotgun and baby's popgun. into formely inaccessible regions A blamed by John B. Burn- ham, preMdent of the American Game Protective association. for the extensive gain in wild game slaughter in this country.
 But the raids are being offset, he says, by efforts of organizations for the protection of wild Nfe. CO., operating with the federal and state governments.
 "A few years ago." he recalls, there were certain parts of the country in the mountain regions that human being could not penetrate. In these places wild animals had perfect sanctuary from the hunter. But today there Is no place that the automobile cannot go. and as result the game has been caught in its own haunts. Agriculture and industry also have taken away natural breeding and living quarters of tho animals. Agriculture has taken the most fer tile ground for its purposes, na- turally the ground on which game had found its food. The animals have been driven to the poorer ground as a result.
 ''Fror these reasons. through state and federal action, we must create so-called artificial sanctuaries - game and bird preserves all over the country"
 Such preserves have increased in great numbers during the last few years, MT. Burnham said, and as a result there is more game today in some of the older states than there was 50 to 70 years ago.
 "Restocking in Vermont has been 70 well administered" he said. "that there are more deer to the square mile in the Green mountain area than in any other place in the world"
 Despite the pessimism of certain naturalists. he says, statistics prove that no specie of game has been exterminated in the last 75 years, and with the modern system of enforcing closed seasons and intelligent restocking, it is unlikely that any species found in this coun- try will ever disappear.

 "There was only one clear faii- ure." Judge Cockrell relates.
 Judges are like doctors, in that their mission is to cure, Judge cockrell says. but the usual judi cial rule is to select a certain size bottle of punishment, pour 1t down the criminals throat, empty the Eottle and throw it away.
 "A better way is to select a great big bottle of medicine, give him what he seems to need, and keep a whole lot in the bottle in case he needs more."
