"The firm of Kuhn, Loeb and Co.
has never had any financial rela-

THE Kerensky government es-

subscribe to so-called liberty loan

did not in fact subscribe to such
a loan. He had no relations with

BEAUMONT, TEXAS - Roseate
spoonbills. species of wading birds
which is fast disappearing from the
Southern coast, is threatened with
extinction on Vingt'une island, &C
cording to wild-life experts.
Game Warden Tom Fridell, en-
ployed by the Audubon society to
safeguard the Galveston bay sane
tuary, blames commercial shell
dredging operations for destruction
Of the spoonbills.
Fridell believes that noise of the
dredging has so alarmed the spoon
bill population that he fears the ad-
ult birds will kill or abandon their
young.
Sportsmen have protested to the
Texas game, fish and oyster COM
mission, seeking to halt the dredg-
ing operations in the vicinity of the
sanctuary.
J. w. Haiser of Houston warned
that the spoonbill colony in Florida
has had a bad season and did not
reproduce well.

GIRL MAKES GOOD
AS COAL SALESMAN
Cleveland Miss Invades Mans
Field With Success.

CLEVELAND.-Pretty, nineteen
year-old Rose Chickiris is a coal
salesman-and scientific one, too.
She is undaunted by the fact that
coal selling is predominantly a
mans vocation. In fact, she is
proving that her selling tactics equal
those of her masculine contempt
rarieS.
She can analyze chemically the
contents of a lump of coal. This
enables her to inform prospective
buyers as to the ash content of the
lump; its moisture, carbon and vol
atile matter contents. She can tell
whether it is suitable for a par
ticular heating unit.
Here is how Rose happened to
start selling coal:
She was graduated from high
school with two college scholar
ships. One was for science, the
other for scholastic honors. She
could not avail herself of either.
Her family was not able to give
her the necessary financial assist
ance,
After high school she obtained a
job at coal company branch of
fee. But that was not all she did
in furthering her ambition.
Her spare time education goes
even further, as she is learning the
administrative end of the coal bust
ness. This includes bookkeeping,
selecting and buying.
She hopes some day to manage or
own coal business.
Miss Chickiris prefers to talk to
the housewife instead of the head
of the house.
It's the housewife who knows
most about smoked-up walls and
curtains and is therefore more In
terested in a better grade of coal,
she said.

Feats of "Telepathy''
Explained by Highly
Trained Perception

London.-Science has probed
the apparent telepathic powers
OF a well-known vaudeville per-
former, Marion, and found that
there is nothing occult or SUI
per-natural about them. Meth
er are they due to extra-sen-
sorry perception.
Instead, they are due to superior
NAL development of the ordinary
power OF perception. A prelimi-
nary report Of the investigation by
,. =. Soal has been made public by
the University Of London Council for
Fsychical Investigation.
Marion, whose real name is Josef
kraus, had two especially signih~
can't accomplishments. One was the
fnding OF hidden object. There
was absolutely no trickery to this,
Mr.. Soal reports, and it was done
without any physical contact with
anyone in the room.
1t was due, Mr.. Soal found, to
Marlon's unusually sharp observa-
lion OF the footsteps of person walk
ing behind him who knew where the
object was. II all the audience was
seated, Marion's ability to find the
hidden object depended on his keen
perception Of involuntary head
movements and changes of facial
expression.
How He Recognized Cards.
The other unusual accomplish
nnent OF this performer was his
ability to recognize any card he held
IN his hand. His skill at this was
unknown to Marion himself until
Mr.. Soal tried it. Marion thought
IT was due to clairvoyance but after
Mr.. SoaPs experiments it could be
accounted for on the ground that
Marion's acuteness of touch and his
general alertness to sense stimu-
u are. exceptional.
These findings do more than
merely dispose of some claims to
the power of clairvoyance and tel
epathy. comments the editor of the
English medical journal, the
Lancet. They show how highly per-
ception may be developed.
The supernormally keen percep-
tive powers of Marion are of the
order of those possessed by the
great physicians of earlier days, the
medical editor suggests. These
men who practiced before the de-
0elOpment of X-rays and laboratory
tests had to rely almost entirely on
their senses and their keen powers
Of perception in order to diagnose
a case and foretell its probable out
come. r< s~-

DIESEL MOTORS CAN
BE USED IN PLANES
Army Makes Strides IN Use
Of Cheap Fuel.

TULSA, OKLA.-Rapid develop
ment and Improvement of Diesel
engines, which during the last two
years have taken over many Of the
power jobs formerly held exclusive
ly by steam or gasoline motors, was
shown at the International Petrole-
UNI exposition here.
Diesels have become more versa
tile because methods have been
found for pairing down their weight
and for removing the highly objec-
tionable smoke and fumes which
formerly presented a major prob
lem.
At one time Diesels weighed too
much and smelled too strongly to
be used in automobiles or airplanes.
Today, hundreds Of pounds lighter
and free Of fumes, they are coming
into wider use.
Aero Diesels probably are the lat
est development in the field. Rela-
lively free from fire hazards, the
rotary-type engines are considera-
bly, more economical than gasoline
engines Of similar power.
One airplane engine, after a 10
year experimental period, is now
being manufactured under govern
mental limitations for use by the
army and navy.
The engine is rated at $40 horse
power, delivering one horsepower
for each l.94 pounds of weight. It
weighs only $40 pounds, suitable for
airplanes, and will run twice as long
on the same amount Of fuel as a
gasoline engine Of equal power and
weight.
Diesels burn a cheap fuel oil.
making the cost approximately one
fourth the price of gasoline.
Diesel engines are less cornpli-
Gated than gasoline motors. No ig-
milton system batteries, spark
plugs, wiring, ETC., is used.

Gorillas and Hyenas Are
Sufferers From Arthritis

Philadelphia. = Grandpa Gorilla
has his bad days with rheumatic"
no less than his human nth-degree
cousins. Hyenas have it, too-pre-
sumably they don't laugh then. 1t
seems to be the same kind of rheu-
matism-arthritis - most common
and most painful in human beings.
Occurrence of arthritis in wild an
innals was described by Prof Her
bert Fox of the University of Penn
sylvania to the American Philo-
sophical society. '%
Professor Fox, as pathologist to
The Philadelphia Geological society,
has had ample opportunity to dag
nose the disease in many living ami
mails He has also examined skele-
tons in several museums. Total
number of animals examined was
l,749, of which II proved to be def
nitey arthritic.
Occurrence of the malady among
animals appears to be as little gov
erned by rules as it is among us
suffering humans. 1t is not cor
related with climate, location, food,
focal infections, or kind of animal.
1t was most easily detected as an af-
fiction Of the spine, but was also
found in other parts of the skeleton.
Animal families afflicted with ar
thrills include cat, COW, deer, bear,
hyena, balloons and the anthropoid
apes. 1t was not found among GER
tain carnivora, notably the dog
group; rodents and bats seem like
wise to be immune.

Irregular kinks and bends in the

A special and intricate code OF
cleanliness must be performed be-
fore each of the FIVE periods of daily
prayer by the Mahometans unless
no opportunity for pollution between
these prayer periods has occurred,
says the Rocky Mountain Herald.
washing for prayer is a ceremony
that must be observed according to
the details of the law regarding it.
essentially it consists of washing
face, nostrils, head, beard, neck,
hands and arms UP to elbows and
Ieet up to the ankles. Olnly when
ne has accomplished each of these
acts three times is he ready for his
religious devotions. This is total
OF 10 ritual cleansings every day for
the devout Mahometans.
