Finley as follows: America a name that was first 4 heard on the planet, or at any rate first put on a printed page, according to the best authorities, in the village of St. Die, among the Vosges mountains in the east of France, often called the baptismal font of America.

The Tatars and the Turks felt Its proximity because of the many raids made upon them by the wild warriors of the steppes, says Nevln O. Winter in a communication to the National1 Geographic society. The Ukraine Includes southeastern Russia, with the exception of the province known as Bessarabia, which I never hope Yet, .according to reports from African explorers a live dinosaur, a brontosaurus has been found In Africa. Now that the dinosaur is with us, potentially, big game enthusiasts will be interested In this description of prehistoric big game, quoted from a communication to the' National Geographic society by Barnum Brown: Today we must go to Africa for the biggest game; but there was a time In the dim distant past when America produced animals larger than any now That was so long ago that living. nothing remains of these creatures except thflr bones, and they are turned to stone. The animals are dinosaurs; for the moment we will call them lizards not the creeping, crawling kind, but huge reptiles that stalked upright through the jungles, rivaling in size the elephant, the- hippopotamus and .the rhinoceros.' The place Is Alberta, Canada, and the time of their existence 3,000,000 years ago. In these marshes of prehistoric times dwelt a host of reptiles, some large, some small and of various forms; flesh eaters and herb eaters, but all sharing certain characters in common Not any and known as 'dinosaurs. were closely related to any living reptile, yet they had some characters common to the lizards, crocodiles and birds. .. Of the kinds characteristic of the period one species, a herb eater named Trachodon, was more than 30 feet long and about 15 feet high when standing erect. Its head, with broadly-expande- d mouth, resembles that of a duck, but back of the beak there are more than 2,000 small teeth, disposed.

A long, thin, slender tail acted as a powerful swimming organ, and the body was covered with rough skin.

Some are equipped with four motors, totaling 1,750 horsepower, and have a speed of 55 miles an hour. In the event of war with a foreign nation these sea sleds would be utilized to transport . heavy bombing planes across the ocean. Thousands could be, sent at a comparatively low cost. While it Is possible for an airplane to letrve the deck of a sea sled, there Is not sufficient room for a landing to be made. The flying machine would have to work out its own salvation once its wheels left the sled. These sea sleds are built to lift and run on the surface of the water. When a speed of 50 miles an hour is reached it is possible for an airplane to open its motors and leave the deck without any further runway. Experiments made off the New England roast show that a small airplane can take off when the sea sled is making but 40 miles an "hour in a heavy sea. Other tests are being made to develop the high power planing sea sleds into pleasure craft as well as for military and naval purposes. Gordon S. Orme of New Orleans, a wealthy sportsman, has had a built for his use In the Gulf of Mexico, Factories have been established In Atlantic City to aid in producing the sea sleds, which are now being tested off the New England coast.

Childs Coat and Skirt Suit Barbados Is one of the most interesting and least known of the possessions of Great Britain. solitary,' farthest east of the West Indies, Barbados generally la accounted the most healthful of the group, even though it Is the most populous country In the world, per square mile, except China, and George Washington carried to his grave the marks of smallpox contracted on a vi&t there. The Island there is but one despite the misleading plural name-- ls but an eighth the size of our Rhode Island, but has twice as many Inhabitants per square mile as our smallest and most densely populated state. Seldom does a volcano become an asset, but volcanic eruptions have coo tributed largely to the fertility of Barbados. When the sun was obscured throughout one day in May, 1912, the Barbarians were panic stricken, but when the gentle rain of black dust subsided, the deposit was found to be ashes from an eruption of St. Vincent Soufrlers, nearly 100 miles to the west, ' which enriched the soil. Long before that time, though, Barbados was productive. Oldest of British colonial possessions except Newfoundland, It also was the first place In the British empire where sugar cane was planted. Its average crop d of this now commoditjuis 50,000 tons. It also has 2,000 acres e d or planted In cotton; raises 40,000 bunches yearly of the Chinese banana, and exports mo'. lasses. One phenomenon of Barbados bai not been accounted for. For years the Barbados Coffin Story furnished a mystery, which wohld Interest present-da- y psychic Investigators. In the yard of a church near Olstins Town is a churchyard burial vault, hewn from rock and arched with cemented stone. A woman was burled there in a lead coffin, according to Barbadan custom. Several years later when the vault was opened again to receive another body, the coffin had been removed from its original position. Upon the second occasion special precautions were taken to seal the vault. Several times thereafter, though seals were unbroken and there seemed no other mode of entering the solid rock and masonry, the coffins were displaced. Finally the mouth of the vault wqs cemented, and when It was time to receive another body officials of the Island and an Immense crowd gathered for, the ceremony. Once more all the leaden caskets were found to have been disturbed and the family had their dead removed to another burying ground. No satisfactory solution of these strange occurrences has been offered. A natural curiosity of Barbados Is the Animal Flower Cave, the flowers being sea worms. Not so agreeable are &e Mauchlneel, or poison trees, along the shores, whose leaves blister the skin and contaminate the water.

Here be Deval abrasion test was adopted, and this test with slight modification has been accepted as standard throughout the United States. The test Is named from. Its Inventor.
