Cold waves bound for the United States from the North pole next winter will be reported several days ahead of their arrival under plans for a new system of upper-ai- r exploration, announced by the weather bureau. Two upper-ai- r exploration stations would be established, one at Burbank, Calif., and the other at Fairbanks, Alaska, in September, Dr. W. R. Gregg, chief of the bureau, announced. Radio meteorographs robot weather observers that broadcast their findings from far above the earth to observers on the ground will be 'released daily with balloons at these two stations. The Fairbanks station will enable meteorologists to forecast several days earlier than heretofore the approach of a cold wave. The Burbank station will provide upper-ai- r weather news for forecasters all over ths country. as to prices and appointments can be made at Studio or by phoning Hyland 4098-W 'tggj2222SE3!22!

A clamor is to be raised soon for a precious jewel which disappeared about 500 years ago. It is a large milky opal which once formed the central piece in the crown of the Holy Roman empire, which is now kept in the imperial treasury of the Vienna Hofburg. The crowns orb, Burgundian work of the Tenth century, was adorned with a large round opal, sung by medieval minstrels as the "Unique Jewel, as "Orpanus (Sage) or as "Candidus (the White and Innocent). Experts point out that such a jewel is practically unbreakable, and that even to an uneducated eye the value of the large stone must have been obvious. Therefore, in their opinion, this opal can hardly have been lost. They say that the history of almost all famous jewels can be traced through the centuries, According to them the imperial opal, in all likelihood, rests unrecognized in some private collection of jewels, and that probably it has found its way back to India whence lit came and where it may be contained now in the treasury of one of the maharajahs. & i WELDING?

Banding of bam swallows inhabiting Ship island, near here in the Gulf of Mexico, may solve a mystery, according to Thomas J. Burleigh, associate biologist of the United States of biological survey. Why it is that these birds nest on Ship island and other outlying islands, but do. not live on the mainland along the Mississippi Gulf coast, is what puzzles Burleigh. He pointed out that they might be the same type that ne3t in Northern nearest known winter j Arkansas, nesting place of barn swallows. The barn swallows in Arkansas are known to go north to Labrador, where they have definite breeding places. Banding of the birds was decided on to determine whether the Ship island barn swallows also join the others in their northward flight. bu-re-uu 2k ! . I j Four Flying Creations Scientists seem to agree that nature produced flying animals at four different periods. The first to take wings were the in- sects, and still with us today. Next came flying dragons or pterodactyls. Once common, they disappeared millions of years ago. Next came the birds, and finally the bats of the mammal line.

The consists of a miniature wireless set which broadcasts the response made by three elements sensitive to atmospheric changes. Attached to each element one responsive to pressure changes, one to temperature changes and one to humidity changes is a tiny hand which moves as the element moves. A fourth small hand, kept in motion by a special clockwork, passes over the three other hands, making contact as it goes. At each contact a signal is broadcast. A receiving set at the ground station picks it up. ' Trained observers translate the time intervals between the contacts caused by changing atmospheric conditions and the regular contacts of the moving arm with fixed points into pressure, humidity and temperature readings. radio-meteorogra- The observa- radio-meteorogra- tions from Burbank and Fairbanks, going out by radio and teletype, will reach forecast centers and airports almost as soon as they are taken.

What is probably the worlds most useful ghost is reported to be wandering about at Karimmagar, near here. It is the ghost of a money lender known during his life as the k of Karimmagar, who had difficulty in collecting his debts when he lived, but whose ghost is having Shy-loc- none now. The debtors, who owed several thousand rupees at the time of the money lender's death, are reported to be rushing to pay their debts before the ghost pays them a visit. It appears thqt the debtors settled down after the money lenders death with that 'come md collect it expression for his heirs. Then one of them was visited by a ghost one night; and then another, and another, so the story goes. The heirs, who in a less credulous district might be credited with having something to do with the ghost," are sitting back and collecting both capital and interest as fast as they can. Free-Striki- POTPOURRI "A man may mend his ways for a girl though she darns his sole." The Matches Preferred by Americans ng Salem, Ore. One of the most striking industries in the United States is the match industry. More than 269,000,000,000 matches were manufactured in 1935. If these were distributed to every man, woman and child in the country, each would receive 2,900. Twenty-fou- r companies represented the United States match industry in 1935, which, according to the Department of Commerce, was valued at $30,440,460. The industry furnished employment to 5,075 persons, with wages slightly more than $4,500,000. Approximately 68 per cent of the matches produced in this country are the strike anywhere kind. matches account for 10 per cent and matches in the book constitute the rest.

In 1912, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., built a home at No. 10 h West street. Nine stories in height and of ample proportions, the residence is one of the largest homes in the city, its size being equivalent to that of an apartment house. The cost was $200,000 and the interior trim and decorations are said to have cost another $100,000. In later years, the elder Rockefeller spent much of his time at the Rockefeller estate at Pocan-tic- o Hills in Westchester. As the years passed he passed his summers on an estate in New Jersey and his winters in Florida.

The Telescope The invention of the telescope usually attributed to Galileo, who first exhibited it, in its completed, form, in 1609 aroused new interest in communication by visible signals.; By the end of the Seventeenth cen-- j tury, these instruments were fair-- j ly common throughout Europe, and several signal systems, based on their use, had been suggested. About 1690, Amontons, a member of the French academy, devised a system, the simplest form of which consisted merely of hoisting flags or plao- -' ards bearing large letters, to be read by telescope and relayed from station to station. He demonstrate ed his system before the Dauphin in' the Luxembourg gardens, Paris. Shortly before this, Hooke, an English physicist, had invented a ays-- j tem made up of a line of high tow--j ers, each holding a frame on which twenty-si- x figures representing the: letters of the alphabet were to be1 hung and the message spelled out.
