|Scienti»t> Listen to “Conversation” of Ants Two scientists of the University of Pittsburgh recently perfected an apparatus far detecting the sounds of underground communication among ! ants. A block of wood was placed upon 'the diaphragm of an ordinary telephone transmitter, which in turn was connected through batterlee and J amplifiers to a pair of earphones. ' When the termites crawled over the , block of wood the transmitter was agitated, reaulting In sound vibrations which were clearly heard by the listeners at the headset When tlxe ante became excited over something or other their soldlera were .found to hammer their heads vigorfously on the wood. This action conld (ba clearly seen and heard at the 'same time. I The Investigators found that the (anta could bear sound vibrations In the air very poorly or not at all, but 'were extremely sensitive to vibrations underground. For this reason It was I thought that the head hammering was ,a method ut cunimuh'chticn. Because of this sensitivity to sub- , stratum vibrations ants are seldom found to infest the ties of railroads carrying heavy traffic, or buildings containing machinery. The vibrations .mean danger to them just as If one 'of their own number was giving the 'alarm by banging bis head on the (ground. Phrase “Stone Age” Not Literal in Application The Stone age is a term commonly insed to denote the earliest recognized .stage in the development of human (culture as defined by the materials used by naan for weapons, utensils, The phrase is somewhat misloadilng, since it is probable that primitive man made use of wood and other perishable materials to a far greater extent than of stone, and consequently • the stage Is defined by the prevailing material of the relics, not by that of (actual implements In common use. The 'term “Stone age” represents In no sense a chronological division of human progress, but is a loose equivalent for a stuge of cultural development (varying widely in duration in different parts of the world. There are, e. g., tribes still In the Stone age, while, on the other band, some groups had outgrown it before the dawn of history. : It is also worth noting that some tribes commonly classed as belonging to the Stone age produced objects of ,a superior artistic and Industrial merit Jto those who had advanced to the use -of metals. The evidence for the existence of such an age in most parts of the world is conclusive, but It Is .’from the prevalence and charajttr of the relics in certain parts of Europe 'rather than in America that the Idea and term have come into general usg. A Mouta Farm ’ Have you ever heard of a mousq (farm? There is one at Rayleigh, iq • Essex, England, where mire are reared just as cattle and sheep are lin ordinary farms. Ther? ere M.OOOi 1 mice, and of nearly every color. Yet, ; although there are so many, Mr. Tuck, 'the farmer, can put his hands on any (one of them at a moment’s notice, i About three hundred young ones are , born every day, and It takes five | hours to feed them all. They are sold to colleges and hospitals for ex, ; perlments. I I • Danger in Bella’ Tolling ! It often has been observed that thq ' vibrations of a large bell ringing In i a tower can be felt In the masonry ; near it, and serious accidents have . been caused by such vibrations, ac< i cording to Satis N, Coleman, author (of “Bells.” In 1810 the spire of a ' church in England fell while the bells (were being rung for morning service ! and 23 persons were kilted. In most (church towers the bells are bung in t a framework, which, as far as pos-' 1 slble, is kept clear of the walls.—Detrolt News. Speed of Fastest Birds ; Swallows fly at the rate of more ‘ than 100 miles an hour and are among (the world's fastest birds, says Popular i Mechanics Magazine. The puma is i reputed to be one of the swiftest wild . animals and whippets hold most of ■the speed records among domesticated ' animals. Race horses often attain a [ speed of well over 1,000 yards a min--1 ute, while pigeons have been timed J at speeds of nearly 2,800 yards a minute for short spurts.

NATIONAL HORSE SHOW IS OPENED New York, Nov. 9 -(UP)— The horse show”, insists Bob Clare, who has seen all 44 of these annual national exhibitions, ‘‘ain't what it used to be." But then, neither is the horse. The fact remains that the 44th annual national horse show was under way in Madison Square Garden today after a send-off as colorful and enthusiastic — (and better attended, incidentally)—as any In the history of the event. Society, in ermine, seal and weber and heilbroners, turned out in record numbers. Five army teams leht an international fillip to tho affair. The United States got away to a splendidly earned victory In the opening jumping competition. California entries began a concerted raid upon one blue ribbon counter as cast consternation among the eastern exhibitors two years ago. Altogether, this horse show started out like quite a show. • The old timer's complaint is that Madison Square Garden —the new uptown variety of a venerable showplace —has no promenade. "The show ain’t what it used to be," Clare maintains. “In the old days, they had the promenade, and these society people could walk around and see each other and say: ‘Hello, there,’ and give the rest of us a look at them and their jewels. “Now they have to go in and sit in their boxes and look at the horses. It s all different.” While the annual national horse show unquestionably has served in the past the purpose suggested by Mr. Clare, Its appeal in this automotive age is extraordinary. That there should be a record opening night attendance of nearly 10.000 in the garden is indicative of something. First hono’rs went to the United States, as was only fitting and proper after the splendid record made by our army team in Berlin, Paris and Dublin this year. In the event for pairs of international officers’ jumpers, feature event of the opening night, Proctor and George Williams, the aces among the American horses entered, easily won the blue ribbons. Ridden by Captains Bradford and Watkins, they swept over the obstacles on tlie figure eight course with only a single fault. Another United States team took sec-ond-place. with the Irish Free state entrants third. Ben Meyers of Beverly Hills carried off two “blues" in the harness pony class, to the disappointment of eastern exhibitors, recalling a similar success stored by California entries in 1927. o Huntington Vikings Victors Over Bluffton Bluffton. Nov. 9—Staging a last half rally Huntington high school football team tourned back the Bluffton Tigers In the closing games of the season for Bluffton. The final score was 13-0. The Tigers started early in the first quarter and by half time had a lead of 13-0. The Vikings began a rally in the second half which netted them two touchdowns and a safety. 0 - — High School Grid Player Drops Dead Jasonville, Ind., Nov. 9.— (U.R) —A high school youl'h whese spirit anti loyalty were too strong for his heart, brought the football game between Jasonville and Greencastle football teams to a tragic ending here last night. Charles Haymer, 17, Greencastle guard, dropped dead of heart disease as he was walking from the field at the end of the first halt. The game was stopped. Jasonville was leading 7-0 at the half. Haymer was the sou of Mrs. Tullis Haymer, widow. • —o — a«t the Habit—l rade at nom«, It Pay' The Perfect Sun-Tan Skin .3 Sus ] rt.
