naval reservists would be called to

that 10000 retired officers and other
reservists would report for duty

end of September. taking part in
combined naval and air force war

Informed quarters regarded it as
significant that the maneuvers
would be in progress at the time of
the Navy party congress which
opens September 2 at Nurnberg.
Many European observers have
picked that as a danger period.

made in informed quarters that

Britain's move marks the first time
since the Czecho-Slovak crisis of
last September that naval reservists
have been called up.
The reserves will take part in a
vast naval demonstration August g.
King George vi will review the fleet
at Weymouth, where about 100 ships
of all sizes will be concentrated.
The naval move came as the air
ministry was engaged in series Of
mass bomber flights over Southern
France designed to give Royal Air
Force pilots practice In long-range
flying and at the same time to
demonstrate Britain's air power.
1t also conceded with the alloca-
ton of f40,000000 (about $187 ,200,-

This sum was set by supplementary
estimates, which brought the air

Two methods Of preserving indef-
initely in their natural colors such
agricultural specimens as leaves,
flowers, fruits, seeds, insects, and
other biological material have been
developed by chemists Of the United
States department of agriculture.
The processes, while supplementing
each other, have different fields of
application-one for dried and the
other for fresh material.
In the method studied by DR..
Charles e. Sando, specimens are
suspended and embedded in metha-
crylate, q crystal-clear plastic SIM
liar to materials used in making
nonshatterable airplane windows.
In this process, the specimens must
be dehydrated or dried out to pre-
vent moisture from clouding the
glass-like plastic material. They
may be air-dried or dehydrated by
use of alcohol or ether.
Corn and other grains or seeds,
insects, or anything that does not
lose its color or shape with drying,
may be preserved by this method,
possibly only under controlled lab
oratory conditions. Once the plas-
tic sets it can be machined and pol
ished to high luster so that the
specimen may be viewed from any
angle without distortion. The larg-

New Method Preserves Plants Insects in Natural Colors

est mount prepared so far is an ear
of hybrid corn.
The other method, developed by
G. r. Fessenden, is a chemical
process for treating fresh plant ma
terial in such way as to tougher
the tissues and set the natural col
or. The natural beauty Of flowers,
or the exact appearance Of either
healthy or diseased leaves, can be
preserved by immersion in special
~ formulated water removing
syrups. Each plant species requires
an individual treatment which has
to be worked out from seven gen.
eral types of formulas.
The old method of preserving
botanical specimens pressing and
drying-was unsatisfactory because
of loss of color and the fact they
were easily destroyed by handling
or by insects or mold. Specimens
preserved by this new method are
sealed between sheets of cellulose
film so as to be protected from
damage.
Due to the expected permanence
of specimens preserved by either
method, excellent records Of both
healthy and abnormal plants and in
sects may be made available for
scientific research, study, and ex-
hibition. =

CHAPTER VII

Norwood left his horse in charge
of the sails at the palace front gate.
He intended to return and ride up
the long drive to the front door for
his formal call on the Maharajah.
But the footpath to the guesthouse
was shorter than the winding car
riage-road, so he walked, to leave
the iodine for Mrs. Harding. On the
way he saw Lynn and Rundhia.
Lynn was no longer in riding
brooches. She looked delicious in
a frock of nile-green print and a
wide leghorn hat. Norwood wasn't
sure, but he suspected she knew
she could be seen from the guest
house veranda, and that Rundhia
did not know. She and Rundhia
were laughing. Suddenly Rundhia
snatched her hat off, used it as a
shield to hide behind, caught her
in his arms and kissed her. It was
no fool of kiss. It was an expert
ence. Lynn did make show of re-
sistance. She struggled free and
recovered her hat.

him set his jaw. But he relaxed it

direction he had heard what sound

nothing worse than the well-bred, al
most inarticulately gurgled word:
s'Hussy!o
Aunty Deborah Harding had also
seen that lingering and only laugh
ingly resisted kiss.
Aunty was on the screened We
randa, propped on pillows, on a
reed chaise Tongue, with a table
beside her. A native servant was
just in the act of removing tray
of breakfast things.

If can't keep it down. What has

He had forgotten the iodine.

She's beyond those trees, talking to
someone. I want her to come here
and talk to me. Will you tell her
said so, and please don't take no

Norwood strolled across the lawn,
tapping his boots with riding whip.
He coughed a couple of times. BY
the time he had peered around theA
trees, Lynn and Rundhia were seat
ed opposite each other on wicker
work CHI <rs. Lynn seemed unself-
conscious. Rundhia looked venom
ously sly; he offered Norwood no
greeting whatever.

She laughed at him. Liar! That's
the very first time you haven't spo-

IT told part of the truth. I am

'You needn't be. I'm all right"
She ran forward to speak to her
aunt. The tray Of breakfast things
was being carried out by palace

inspected the tray, and selected a
piece of toast. He looked for some
thing to wrap it in. That reminded
him. He CROPPED in his left-hand

He plunged his hand into his tunic
pocket and Lynn came to the screen
door to receive the bottle. He looked
at her, cropping with his left hand,
trying to pull out the bottle without
the untidy paper; but a piece of
string, tied with one of Stoddart's
knots, prevented. So he pulled out
the disgraceful package with q
quick smile of apology.

Harding abandoned her usual gradu-
