Plank, University of Minnesota student, finances his education by mimicking birds at various entertainments. Hla fees for the entertainment pay his board, lodging and tuition. As a boy in Iowa, Plank learned to imitate the calls of birds of that climate. At 15 he was in demand for appearances at church functions. Later he lived in Rouleau, Saskatchewan, where he often fooled birds into answering his calls. MAY USE STEEL HAT SAFEGUARDS ng Lung Collapse Responds to Carbon Dioxide, Re-searc- h Shows. NEW HAVEN, Conn, MPV The use of carbon dioxide to Inflate collapsed lungs in the treatment of pneumonia has been found effective in experimental research. Experiments with dogs prove that lung collapse is a vital factor in pneumonia, and that inhalation of the gas will counteract the effects by opening up closed areas. What effect the results will have in the treatment of pneumonia in man is not predicted! If clinical pneumonia is not promised relief similar to that demonstrated In experimental infection, it is at least believed that a new field with many possibilities has been opened. Research was carried on by Yan-de- ll Henderson of Yale university in collaboration with G. L Birnbaum, P. N. Coryloas, H. W. Haggard and E. M Radloff. Carbon dioxide, commonly known for its use in soda water, has earlier been demonstrated as effective in the development of forestalling nneumonla in patients who developed collapse of the lungs after surgical operations. The present experiments go one Mep further to show that the gas is effective in clearing up closed areas nfter pneumonia has developed. The action of the gas is to induce deep breathing.

NEW YORK. May has got to be done about what the secretary of arts and sciences here calls "the amazing skyline of upper New York." where the amazement of the artistically inclined is centered at the moment upon the water tanks. The skyline as a skyline is art. But the water tanks, and there's no use trying to conceal the awful truth, are a blot on the escutcheon of architecture. The blot Is so serious that the society of arts and sciences is now calling in the aid of architects, sculptors, landscape architects, engineers and painters in an effort to erase It. More, they are invoking gold, silver and bronze medals, not to mention basreliefs and a series of parchment scrolls. Already they have asked the national sculpture so clety and similar organizations to cooperate by appointing members to serve on a Jury of judges. ' Society Goes Deep Into I'nsightly Scenery. They are going further than that The society of arts and sciences plans to place a tablet In each of the three most architecturally significant buildings erected here during the past 10 yeaa and upon tW tablet they mean to engrave theWiames of the owner. sVchltect and builder.

The society of arts and sciences is dedicating a parchment scroll to such buildings a tastefully enclose the pretty generally unenclosed water tanks, and they are doing this "asan appropriate gesture." Several Methods Open to ' . Improve Water Tanks. Of course, the really appropriate gesture for the water tank in Its present naked condition is one which comes readily to mind; at least, to a certain type of mind ; and we can visualize beauty gazing about the roof with her thumb daintily touched to the nose. For it isn't merely the fsct that there's a water tank rearing iu great big ugly paunch above your own renaissance awning: look in any direction from your landscaped penthouse pansy bed or petunia bush, and you 11 see tank after tank, utilitarian and ugly, imposing its unlovely bulk between you and the gas houses, derricks, railroad tracks and other bits of nature to which the rietal agent ah. the incorrigible rogue-ref- ers as the "river view."

He intended at irst to have the tank removed al- iog?ther. since from early manhood n lias contended tnat water has r taste, but to remove the !?nk would have meant Installing individual wells or something of the art for the other tenants.

Another morning, for several minutes the water tested magically and remlniscently. if all too faintly, of Scotch.
