would call 1t. Chimes were struck
every quarter on three sweet-toned
silvery bells and the hours. were
repeated on a deeper-toped larger
bell after each quarter. This was
called grand sonnerie" mechan-
ism and was very rare. The only
other with similar works is In the
collection at Windsor Castle.
In case this reminder Of the pass

use the striking could be repeated
at will by pulling q cord Just inside

Drying Cellar Air.
A reader asks for information on
the drying out of cellar air that is
damp from summer condensation
not from leakage. A good method is
to use calcium chloride, which alb
serbs moisture from the air and be-
comes liquefled. One arrangement
is to get two or three decked wire
letter basket. and to line each deck
with insect screening. The basket
is stood on a bucket or other recep-
tacle, large enough to catch the
drip, and each deck is filled with
calcium chloride in flake form. This
can be had at many hardware stores
and from dealers in building ma
terials.. For ordinary conditions
one filling of the baskets will last
for a number of days. Calcium
chloride is inexpensive, and enough
to keep the cellar dry for a summer
can be had for few dollars. If the
cellar is very damp. it will help to
run a slow fire in the house heater

Great Britain and Greece fought
off preliminary Axis stabs into the
Balkans today but heavy movement
of German reinforcements threat
ened stronger blows in a general
Mediterranean offensive that may
extend from Suez to Gibraltar.
The first move of the British
navy in defense of Greece, it was
disclosed officially in London, was
to lay mines protecting the CULTS
of Patras and Corinth and the Gulf
of Aegina. This drew a BARRED
around the Corinth land bridge be-
tween northern Greece and the
Peloponnese and guarded against
any attempt by the Italians to break
Greco in two by a surprise attack
ont he Corinth zone.
Sharp patrol fighting was reported
in the mountains of Greece as
italian forces sought to drive in
from Albania toward the important
port of Salonika, which the Bri-
fish were believed likely to seek
as base for a counter -attack in
southern Europe.
Greek Town Taken
italian troops were reported to
have occupied the Greek town of
Janari after stiff two hour battle
near the Albanian frontier, where
both sides suffered casualties. The
Fascists pushed on to Smernes Ia
ter but the Greeks were said to be
hampering their advance: Italians
lost so dead and 80 wounded in
fighting near Kikolica, reports from
the frontier said.
Fascist airplanes again bombed
the Athens airport and the Greek
port of Volvos, but Greeks reported
that little damage was done.
Greek defense forces were reported
at Athens to be holding firm at
most points along the mountainous
frontier and inflicting considerable
casualties on the Fascist troops, de-
spite use of italian airplanes and
mountain artillery. Reports by way
of Belgrade continued to indicate
that an Albian revolt might be him
dering the Fascist advance.
At Rome, owever, it was stated
that "our troops have continued to
advance in Greek territory, overcom-
ing the resistance of enemy rear
guards" No definite figures were
given as to the extent of advance
but dispatches from Albania said
