Preserve Memories of
Japanese Quake Dead

A method Of preserving the names
Of 1O4,619 victims Of the great earth
quake of September /, 1928, was per-
fected by Hidejiro Nagata, former
mayor Of Tokyo.
These names were sealed tightly In
a special container and buried beneath
a tower on the sacred Mount Koya,
where generations of descendants
may revere the memory Of those who
persisted in the catastrophe.
Special paper was used to bear the
names, 100 to the sheet. Rolled into
scrolls, each sheet was metal bound
at the center and ends and wound
with black and white silk mourning
ribbons. All the scrolls were placed
in a special crystal jar yard and a
half in diameter and foot high, made
alright to prevent decay. These were
placed in a lead casing surrounded
with a packing of carborundum as
protection against deterioration.
Mount Koya, known to all true fol-
lowers of Buddhism, is located in GEN.
trail Japan. Women, though they may
climb it, are not allowed to 60 to the
very top, this custom having been in
force since time immemorial and still
is being maintained on a few other
sacred mountains.

Legal Enactments for
Settling Public Lands

During the existence Of the govern
ment under the Articles Of Confeder-
alton, congress on September 6, 17SO,
passed a resolution recommending the
survey and disposal by the several
states Of their waste and unappropri-
ated lands to aid in paying the public
debt incurred by the War of the Revo-
luton. In the beginning these lands
were regarded as an asset for the pay
ment Of this debt. The earliest efforts
were to sell the land in large blocks
and, prior to the organization of our
present government, congress made
three such sales. On June 10, 1855,
congress under the Articles Of Confed-
Grafton passed a resolution forbidding
settlement on the public domain. The
act of March 8, 1907, prohibited such
settlement under penalty of forfeiting
any right or claim a settler may have,
and the President was authorized to
use civil and military force to remove
such persons from the lands. Certain
exceptions were made in favor of those
who had settled there before the pas
sage of the act, and later, for those
who had settled before February 1,
1916, a privilege of temporary occu-
pancy was given. From time to time
acts were passed providing for the pre-
emption rights within certain areas
and subject to varying conditions.

Eye Strain Responsible
for Much Bad Temp

Physical exhaustion entirely dis
proportionate to the amount Of
energy expended is often caused by
eye strain, said DR.. B. Franklin Roger,
medical director Of the National So
ciety for the Prevention Of Blindness.
In many cases, Doctor Roger said,
loss of temper could be traced to de-
fective vision.
"Some of us are fooling ourselves
when we do not connect serious bodily
fatigue and irritability toward the end
of the day, and still greater fatigue
and irritability toward the end of the
week, with the eye that has actually
shown no pain during all that period.
Many worker having just such daily
and weekly manifestations of increas-
ing fatigue may have his symptoms
disappear by wisely applying present
day medical knowledge of the cause,
have the fault corrected, and still keep
the same job and the same kind OF
work, with the fatigue and discom-
fort rapidly disappearing"

Fight at First Sight

The "cichlids" of the fresh water
carp family are said to be among the
most ferocious of fish. They are quite
difficult to mate and have to be kept
separate, for they fight and kill each
other with little delay. When they are
once mated. however, they take great
care Of their progeny. A flower pot or
hollow stone is found, which they
clean spotlessly and in which they
raise their family. They guard their
eggs in alternate shifts, tanning them
with their fins. Just before Matching,
the female digs a pit in the sand or
single and transfers the young fish
to it. They are then a wriggling mass
of black jelly. After two or three hours
she digs another pit. and this process
goes on till the youngsters can swim
about.

Incident Gives Proof

Students of nature, we are told, are
familiar with instances of an animal
making efforts to protect another.
when in danger. Here is an example !:
The worm, about five inches long, was
proceeding across path; the beetle,
jet black and resembling caterpillar,
was seen running around it and jump
ing upon it in state Of great anxi-
ETY.. AS the observer came near the
beetle withdrew to shelter, and the
worm proceeded on the path, which
was plainly the path Of danger. But
the self-sacrificing beetle could not
bear to see a fellow-creature running
such risks. 1t rushed again to the
worm. seized it by the head, turned
1t round. and conducted it tenderly to
a hole in the ground into which, CRATE
fully, we hope, it at once retreated.
That worm on the open path might at
any moment have been picked up by
a keen-eyed blackbird. 1t probably
owed its life to the disinterested eff

Roger Bacon First to
Talk of Metal Airship

In the all-metal airship we see
realized an eight-century-old Baconian
project. In the Thirteenth century,
says Domestic Air News. United
States Department Of Commerce,
Roger Bacon, English philosopher and
Franciscan friar, seems to have been
the first to realize the principles Of
aerostation, if we discard Kircher and
the legends.
Bacon wrote in glowing language on
the possibility of constructing engines
of immense size and power that could
traverse the land and the water with
great speed and carry with them per-
sons and merchandise.
He proposed the construction Of an
aerial machine which must be large
hollow globe Of copper or other suit
able material filed with
ethereal air or liquid fire. (some have
claimed Bacon referred to rarefied air
and hydrogen gas) and then launched
from some elevated point into the at
mosphere, where it will float like q
vessel on the water"
There may be made, Bacon said,
"fying machines so that man sits
in the midst of the machine revolving
some engine by which artificial wings
are made to beat the air like flying
bird"
The idea Of the rigid airship may be
traced from Bacon through Albertus
de Saxonia (1350), Mendoza (1503-75).
