Examining the eye Of European

Nocturnal snakes have perfectly col

making use of this device, he found, was
the squirrel. Those species that expose
themselves to the brightest light have
the mostly deeply colored lenses. The

GENEALOGIST SEEKS PARCHMENT BURIED
 WITH RABBITS BODY

Washington D. c. May 30--Ex- huming the body of an eighteeth century rabbi in a cemetery in Czechoslovakia will be the next step in the ancestor hunt in which Viola Root Cameron, international genealogist, is almost continually engaged.
 Mrs. Cameron, blonde, small, quiet hopes to find with the body a parchment which will supply some missing branches on the family tree of a wealthy New York client. She will go to Eu- rope this summer personally to oversee the examination
 Such parchments, she, says, were buried with the rabbis in the eighteenth century. The one she seeks was written between 1750 and 1900. If procured it will open a whole new field in tracing an- cestry, she believes.
