Radiolarians
By LILLIAN COX ATHEY.

by LILLIAN COA AIHk4.
Once you acquire the habit of U.s.
ing the magnifying glass to marvel
at the wonders too small for the un-
aided eye to see, you realize how
many beautiful living organisms
there are moving in the water that
appears to be so clear and free from
all such things.
1t Is claimed by those who have
made an intensive study of proto-
zoans that the radiolarians are the
most beautiful of them all. 1t does
not seem possible there could be
such wide variety of forms. There
are globe-shaped ones, those re-
sembling perforated vases, fairy
baskets of jewel-like texture, some
as clear as crystal, others carved
like jewels-in fact, a seemingly
endless variety.
Radiolaria also are called the
"little rays of the sea-" They float
about, extending their long and
slender rays very much as the sun
a1imalcules do.
What really makes these little
rays, or radiolarians, so beautiful?
Not only the exquisite forms they
develop, but their skeletons of silica,
a transparent glasslike substance
that is found to be extremely hard,
are marvelously colorful.
When you realize that these SIM
pie, minute living specks are able to
extract from the water this mineral
substance and build it up into such
lovely. colorful structures, you mar
vel over the vastness of creation,
once again realizing how much
beauty is hidden from us, unless we
seek the aid Of the microscope. Then
new world is opened up to us.
When death comes to one Of these

year. Gradually these layers .pile
up to such proportions that the mass
is known as the radiolarian ooze.
In the Pacific and Indian Oceans
so many billions of radiolaria have
been dropping to the seas floor that
1t is said to cover an area estimated
to be about 2,290,o00 square miles.
When you compare this vast floor
ing of wee skeletons, then you stop
trying to figure out how many Of
these beautiful little rays have lived
their short span of life, soon to be
drifting down to join others at the
bottom of the sea.

There are 81 ,147 acres for the MIL

443.455 acres, and millions have left
its precincts for the duration of the

stripped of most its FORCES of war
long ago.
Two Explanations for Attack.
There are two explanations for
the belated German attack on the
Midlands and the vicious siege of
London: One, that Britain made
its greatest city successful lure;
second. that Hitler wanted to save
England's industries. the nations
greatest prize, for himself, so long
as his chances of invasion seemed
successful. The second carries the
more logic.
London's morale has not cracked.
The people there are now soldiers of

CHICAGO, Nov. 21-The prob
lem of the "haves' and the have
nots"-a vast and vexing one in the
opinion of some big, important men
was solved simply and satisfac-
torily yesterday by band OF chill
dren.
It was at the Bryant School, on
the West Side Some of the FAM
lies in the neighborhood are COM
Portable. Others are poor.
The students who knew they would
feast on Thanksgiving Day worried
about those who expected no fine
fare. They asked themselves what
they could do.
The answer was provided by
youngsters pulling coaster wagons
burdened with bushel baskets to the
schoolhouse. There were IS bas-
kets. They were crammed with
good things to eat. The ''haves'
brought them for the have nots.' .
The children of this school are
the most generous I've ever seen"
said Principal George E. Anspaugh.
They did it all on voluntary
basis.
He seemed pretty proud of his

1t is not cOlncldence that Ernest

England looks with trust and hope,
chose to outline the British govern

other cities of the MidlandS searched
for new dead in the bomb-made
rubble.

said the Minister of Labor bluntly.
This man of toll was talking to the

he said, the nations whole economic

1t is amazing that the Germans
