UNCLE RAYS CORNER-Africu and India Have Sikworms

Silkworms are not the only little
animals which make silk thread.
Spiders produce it, and so do various
caterpillars which are not claSsed
as silkworms.
We may wonder why spider silk
Is not used for cloth, The fact is
that it can be. Fairly good silk
cloth has been woven from the
threads spun by spiders.
Such cloth has been made in the
course of tests. There never has
been enough of it to give it place
on the worlds markets. One trouble
Is that spiders are quarrelsome lot;
they do not get along well together
In colonies.
Among the caterpillars, three
main kinds are .classed as silk
worms. They are the common silk
worm, the African silkworm and the
caterpillar of the wild silk moth.
African silkWorms hatch from the
eggs of moths found in certain parts
of Africa The moths have criss-
cross brown bars on their cream
colored wings.
The caterpillarS which hatch from
the eggs grow until the time comes
for them to spin cocoons. Then they
do something which other kinds of
silkWormS never do Before they
make special cocoons for themselves
they gather on the limb OF a tree

%West decided that North had
solid hearts and that it was vital
to take trick at once if the grand
slam was to be defeated. That could
be done only if East had an ace
or void suit; and because Vests
spades were longer, he decided East
was more likely to be void of spades
than of clubs. He, therefore, led a
spade-whereupon he saw that his
reasoning had been all wrong, for
East took the spade ace.
That ended the party of course.
North and South censured each
other for the bidding: then they
pounced on East for doubling, and
on West for leading a spade. What
do you think?"
We agree with the opening lead
and with Vests reasoning. We don't
mind feeling a bit silly if our lead
defeats a grand slam!
East's double was rather unWise.
It was more likely than not to pro-
duce an unusual lead from West
whereas pass would almost surely
induce West to lead one of the unbid
suits. There was an even chance
in that case, that West would lead
a spade.
AS between North and South, we
place the blame on South for jump
ing to three diamonds. Such a bid
shows great deal more high-card

Answer to Yesterdays Puzzle

each worm makes loose covering,
or cocoon, for itself, inside the web
covering.
The small jackets of African silk,
worms have no value in the silk
trade. 1t is the strong outer cover
of the whole colony which goes to
the markets of the world. After it
is soaked in a solution of soda and
water, silk thread can be taken out
and turned into fairly good cloth.
Better cloth is obtained from the
caterpilars of wild silk moths. These
moths are found chiefly in India.
High-grade silk is obtained from
the cocoons and some of it is sold
abroad. Most of it, however, is
kept for the home market. People
in India who are rich enough to
buy silk are fond of wearing it and
they take up the main part of the
"wild silk" supply. -s

Review of Recordings

Endowed with an expressive voice
of an agreeable timbre. Mr.. Tin
ayre appears as spokesman for the
forgotten tunes, rich in variety. The
entire set of four 12-inch discs is
divided into eight parts Some of
those comprise two-three short
songs of religious, sentimental or a
lively nature. France, the Neither
lands, Italy and Germany are rep
resented with their national pecu-
liarities preserved by Mr.. Tinayre's
skillful Interpretation
The recording of Sergei Rach-
maninoffs Eleven Piano Pieces" 4"
performed by him. should be consid-
cred good news by those who love
his dual art. In this album of five
10-inch discs early opuses are pre-
sented side by side with his latest.
There is haunting beauty in his
Melody E Major, Op. No. g." which
is a mate to his world famous ."Prel-
ude in C Sharp Minor" in set of
five pieces. In those days Rach-
maninoff's natural gift for melody
was not obscured by his mastery
writing technique.
One can we'll perceive how his
growing proficiency in that line
takes the upper hand by degrees.
The pieces give an unusual exhibit
ton of his powers as craftsman
and performer The most intricate
passages are swept off the key
board with utmost lightness and
precision. Neither are his Russian
temperament nor expressiveness
amiss to make the collection one
of pure enjoyment.
