Diarist Kept Account
of Maqellan's Voyage

Fernando Magellan was Portu-
guese navigator born about 14Io'
Early in the Sixteenth century he
offered his services to Charles V OF
Spain. He was given command OF a
feet Of five vessels and 230 men. With
these he sailed in September, 1919
to find a western route to the East
Indies. He passed part of 1920 In the
bay Of Saint Julian, where a serious
mutiny was suppressed by the execu-
ton of two of his captains. In October,
1920, he rounded South America, dis
covered and passed through the strait
which now bears his name.
He pursued his course through the
Pacific ocean, of which he was the
first navigator. He reached the Phil
ippine islands and was received by
the prince of Zebu. He became an
ally of this prince in war against
another island and was killed In bat
tie in April, 1921. One Of Magellan's
ships, the Victoria, commanded by Sc
bastian del Cano, returned to Spain
and was the first ship to circumnav-
igate the globe. An italian named
Pigafetta, who accompanied Magellan,
kept an account of the journey which
was later published.

Biblical Mamma

Unannounced Tornado

Science has devised no way of pre-
dieting when or where tornado will
strike, or exactly what path it will
travel once it starts. Weather bureau
officials recognize certain conditions
that are favorable for their formation.
But the weather bureau does not at
tempt to predict tornadoes. Tornadoes
are more numerous in the United
States than most people realize. Many
of those which pass over sparsely set
tied parts of the country are never re
ported; only those which do damage
to cities or towns are brought to pub
lie attention. In the Middle West they
are more numerous in May and June
than at any other time Of the year.

Where Druids Camped

Six miles from Etaples, on the way
from Boulogne to Amiens, France, lies
old and quiet little Montreull. Old,
yes. the Druids had camp there
where "The Green Place" Is now
found. Gray stones at the bottom OF
the rampant towers were put there by
the Romans, for only mile away
Caesar sailed to conquer Britain.
Where the Hotel de France now
stands once stood the castle Of the
Century Knight Holgand Then the
sea vanished and left 1t inland. Chau-
Ger and Sterne tell us about 1t as they
saw 1t. For time Napoleon chose 1t
rs the base Of his operations to invade
England and during the war 1t was
general headquarters for the British
forces, and 1t is again old, quiet Mon

Lucky Marriage Months

The belief that June marriages are
luckier than those of other months
is relic of Roman superstition and
mythology. An old Roman proverb
says, prosperity to the man and hap
piness to the maid when married in
June" 1t was popularity supposed
that the month of June was named in
honor of Juno, whose festival was held
on the first of that month. Juno, the
wife of Jupiter, was the guardian of
the female sex from birth to death,
and also the patroness of happy mar
riages. Another month which comes
in for its share of luck to married
couples is February.

What History Should Teach

If history is to deal with human
greatness, with things which have Civ
en- man control Of himself and his SUR
roundings, that have relieved him, and
can relieve him of superstition, igno-
rance, i'll health and incompetence in
the face of natural forces, then Har-
vey, Darwin, Newton, Faraday, Max
well and Rutherford and their discov-
cries deserve more worthy place
even in children's history books. At
present not a mans greatness, but his
patient stupidity. his courageous folly,
his selfishness, his intolerance, are
what we emphasize.-A. V. Hill at the
London Science Congress.

Constructive Sleep

To make our sleep constructive we
should review In our minds near the
retiring hour some of the things we
want to do on the coming day, so that
our so-called subconscious processes
can be active on these things to be
accomplished rather than with disturb
ing dreams. Taking our tasks to bed
for solution helps the tasks and also
helps sleep II we are otherwise emo
iionally calm. The person who keeps

Grasshopper's Mausoleum

Millions Of grasshoppers that lived
many years ago when glaciers were in
the making are preserved In a huge
glacier u miles from Cook, Mont.
on old mining camp just outside the
northeast corner of Yellowstone Ma
tional park. The grasshoppers thus
embalmed are believed to have been
caught in snowstorm as they
swarmed over the region north of
Yellowstone National park. More
SHOWS on top increased the pressure
and eventually the SHOWS became a
glacier, forming mausoleum for the
insects. Today these insects may
plainly be seen and as the glacier re
cedes they are left lying on the ground.

Fish Draw Visitors

People who feel strongly about ex-
otto fish gather at the American Mu-
scum of Natural History, New York, to
examine one of the strangest aggre-
cations of fauna assembled since
Noah's ark. The two most popular
fish on display from the layman's
point of view, will fight at the drop Of
a hat.
There is one small blue fish which,
in repose, looks harmless. This fellow,
however, has a disposition like Scho-
penhauer's. He has already killed
three mates, dispatching them neatly
and without making much of a mess.
And, then, having no others to polish
off, he turned around real quickly and
bit his own tail off.
