or brown band running up the front
part of the chest.
All members have verp unusual
way of walking, and this is one of
the points to observe for instant
Identification. They act like dainty
little girls walking in a mincing
fashion with hig-heeled shoes. For
they walk on the very tips of their
hoofs and they appear to be stiff
legged.
All day the little creatures lie
hidden in the high grass that grows
so abundantly on their home range
They come forth at twilight and
early mornings. Seldom are these
shy creatures seen. In fact, it is
their sincere desire that you do not
know they are about.
They are gentle hammered, and
soon become very tame, and eager
to be with those they have learned
to trust though they still retain this
habit of keeping out of the limelight
and never seek the open country
The home is often in wide crevice
of rock. and these places also afford
quick concealment should one of a
dozen of their foes appear.
During the courting season, you
will see pairs of mouse-deer living
in one home. This is usually in
June and July At all other times
the nouse-deer prefer to live a
solitary existence. The babies
usually twins, are born at the close
of the rainy season or when the cold
season begins. The mother alone
selects the nursery and it is always
as far from the beaten track as
possible. Few of the mouse deer
with their young have ever been
found. They are known to breed
in captivity and this will give many
an opportunity to learn more about
the little creatures.

These elegant little creatures may
be seen at the Zoo in Washington
D. c. They are also known as chew
rotains, but they look so much like
tiny antlerless deer in their general
outline that they usually are called
mouse-deer. However, they really
belong to the camel tribe. OF the
five living species of the genus, one
is found in India and Ceylon through
the Malayan Archipelago to the
Philippines.
The moose-deer are divided into
two genera, the first being Asiatic
and the second African. With but
one exception these creatures are
the smallest of living Ungulates and
they resemble very much the Amer

are in many ways alike both in ap-

Skin Made 10 Grow

Patch Freed Except at

BY HOWARD w. BLAKEsLEE,

Associated Press Science Editor.
NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-PlaStic
surgeons can now lift a patch OF
ordinary human skin and cause it
to grow thicker while waiting for
transportation to cover a wound.
This new step in healing, just de-
scribed in the American Journal of
Surgery, makes it easier to cover bad
wounds from auto accidents and
burns. The thickened skin acts as
filler as we'll as covering. 1t makes
repairs with one layer where former
ly sometimes two layers of tissue and
two operations were required.
This artificially grown skin may
become half inch, or even more, in
thickness. The depth of ordinary
skin gratis, including the tissue
under the surface, is from one
sixteenth to one-eighth of an inch.
STRAP" Rolled, Inside Out.
To cause skin to grow to filler"
thickness a patch is selected, longer
than wide, and cut free, except at
the ends. which are left intact.
Thus strap of skin is formed, still
fastened naturally to the body at
both ends.
Next the strap" is rolled, with
the raw surface outside, in the form
Of a tube. This raw surface tries to
heal and in so doing "granulates, -
forming thicker and thicker tissue.
The process doubles the thickness
in few weeks.
Meanwhile the attachment of the
two ends has kept the strap of skin
alive and healthy. When it is thick
enough, it is removed, unrolled and
laid in place, with the smooth side
uppermost, like ordinary skin gratis.

was to be able to "detour" a patch
OF skin from one part of the body to
another without losing the normal
blood supply.
The technique of rolling the same
strap inside out, so that the skin
will thicken, was perfected by Max
well Maltz, MD. of Beth David
Hospital, New York City.
The wrong-side-out rolling serves
another useful new purpose. Under
the old way of rolling a strap the
skin tended to fix itself in an arched
position when unrolled over a
wound. The new strap unrolls fiat.

Fay Ferguson Makes
Debut in Series

Fay Ferguson, young pianist, the
second local debutante in the series
of THE Art of Young America
under the Conti-Berenguer manage
ment, made her appearance at the
Phillips Memorial Gallery last night.
Although handicapped by a piano
the inadequacy of which for concert
use was obvious whenever demands
for tone and expression were placed
upon it. Miss Ferguson gave all evi-
dence of solid musical foundation,
an accurate technic and Of an in
nate appreciation of the contents of
works presented. She was especially
artistic in her delivery of Chopin S
"Etudes No. q and mo. II. Op. 25."
which was effortless and measured
up to the exigencies placed on the
public performer.
AS regards some of the other num-
bers such as, for instance, Chopin S
"Fantasie. Op. 49, or the Bach
Busoni chorale, Il Call on Thee,
Lord" or Bach's "Chromatic Fantasy
and Fugue," Miss Ferguson lacked at
times the courage of conviction
which prevented her from asserting
herself in phrases which gave her an
opportunity for more forceful use
of her powers.
In addition to the compositions
mentioned above, Miss Ferguson per-
formed eight preludes of Chopin.
Nos. l. II, IA, IS, 16, 81, %. "a from
Op. %; "Berceuse, Op. 81" and
"Etude No. l, Op. 25." Her third
group consisted of Debussy's "Reflets
dams reau," Faure's "Impromptu, F
Minor; Critics THE White Pea
cock" and Dohnanyi's "Capriccio, F
Minor"
The audience, fair in size, was
somewhat backward in giving voice
properly to the appreciation which
they could not help but feel. This
may have been due also to Miss
Ferguson's extreme modesty in
avoiding any display of effect which
often causes salvos of unjustified ap-
plause and eulogies. But, unfortu-
nately, audiences do not always dis
