For the. first time, it is said, the

coloring them with blue. Thus il
has been made possible to study
the activities Of the virus bodies,
The following description Of the
virus and its activities is given:

of the virus has made it invisible

guised its character. The virus

Herzberg has discovered that the
virus bodies are so small that
they can slip through a cell wall,
after which they multiply rapidly
into thousands. Eventually the cell
becomes overloaded and bursts,
the. bodies spreading into other
cells of the body and continuing
their unhealthy work.
1t further was discovered that
flu was caused by the presence
together of both virus bodies and
a certain bacillus. The bacillus
must be surrounded by virus
bodies before it is effective in
causing disease.
Scientists had isolated this 'ba-

MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. ID. (UP)
Mrs. Jean Picard, wife Of the
world-famed stratosphcre balloon
list, wants to be at the controls if
her husband ever makes another
flight into the heavens.
Picard, working in the aero
nauticS department at the Univer.
city of Minnesota, has announced
he may make. a stratoSpherc hop
in a specially designed plane which
he estimates would take him from
Minneapolis to New York in less
than two hours.
Mrs. Picard, the only licensed
woman balloonist in the world,
now is taking flying lessons. Her
instructor describes her as "a
brilliant pupil with a fine flying
sense" ....
AIDED IN 1884 FLIGHT
She assisted her husband in an
ascension in 1913 at Detroit and
is going to be ready when use of

DLANS for the construction OF q
dining. recreation and lounging
lodge on the north rim of the Grand
Canyon by the Union Pacific Railroad
Co. at q cost of approximately $780,
900 were submitted to the National
Park Service last week for approval.
The structure will be completed dur
ing the Summer if plans are approved.
The new lodge will replace the one
destroyed by fire at the close OF the
1882 park season.
The former lodge, built on the brink
Of the north rim of the Grand Can
yon, with the great Kaibab Forest as
its background, was acknowledged
one of Americas most magnificent
national park hotels. The new lodge
will be built on the same site and
in all major particulars will be q
duplicate Of its predecessor.
Native stone and log construction
will be used. The overall dimensions
Of the lodge will be 220 by 24o feet.
A huge dining salon, an outdoor din
ing terrace overlooking the canyon. a
recreation and entertainment hall, a
grand observation terrace with an
out-of- doors fireplace, a lounge for
smoking and bridge Incorporating q
large indoor fireplace and a main
lobby will be the principal rooms OF
the lodge. All these interior rooms
will have hardwood floors.
In general, the building will be
U-shaped, one wing being used for the
curio store and tea rooms and similar
guests facilities, and the other for
kitchens, refrigerator room, bakery,
etc. In the central plaza there will
be q 65-foot hagpole.

Ancient Floodlighting

CALCUTTA, February IA Ceylon-
~ ese woman is preparing to flood
light the ancient temple at Buddha
Gaya, near Calcutta. with $4,000 COCO
nut oil lamps, according to T. A. Hines,
manager of the American Express
Travel Service "Floodlighting is no
modern innovation" says Hines. The
pioneer of it was King Asoka who
ruled over an Indian Empire 1000
years ago. He had his temple at
Buddha Gaya flooded with coconut
oil lamps" The woman responsible
for the new lighting states that her
task was brought about by the reading
Of ancient scriptures concerning King
Asoka and out Of respect will emulate
the royal example. The oils and lamps
are to be supplied by Ceylon itself.
After period of 1000 years the
temple will again glow in the weird
and marvellous lighting of thousands
of candles that will burn day and
night.
