Discovery of the painting was made by a former Indian army officer, P. Dimmock white-searching the cave for cattle which had strayed away from his far mand which he thought might have wandered into the cave. His find was reported to Dr. Ivnpey, an authority on ancient art, who examined the painting and announced that it was a line example ts pure Egyptian art. The figures in the picture were from five to ten inches high and rep- | resented a group of muscians play- ' ing instruments bearing a great similarity to those used in a modern jazz band. Dr. Itnpey declared that the ■ figures could not have been made by I native bushmen, and that the instru- ■ ments represented as being played 'were entirely unlike the crude injstruments used by and known to the 1 bushmen. I Local authorities are completely t tiffed by the painting, both as ow it came to be there and how j it has adorned the roof of the 1 deserted cave.

Furthermore, lie’s going to eliminate the ungainly lengthwise seats entirely, and in their place install side seats of the “tea for two” type. “Those side seats ought to bring wholesale relief to passenger's corns, and, tob, it will stop embarrassment to women passengers from mooneyed males across the aisle,” Kahn says. The cushioned seats cost money, and the elimination, of lengthwise seats will decrease the capacity of cars about 15 per cent. That will mean more cars, and more money invested. Approximately 700,000 fares are paid every day at present on 750 cars, and Kahn thinks he will get enough extra traffic through his new “Komfort Kars” to continue “to charge a nickel fare and still make a profit. Street cleaners who work at night in Portland, Ore., wear headlights and tail lights so that they will not be struck by motorists.

Teachers, in making applications ! for positions, in the islands are rej quired to fill out a standard form in which the question is asked “why do you wish to teach in Hawaii?” Many teachers explained they wanted climate and travel, while a few said they desired to study the racial situation. Most of the women applicants write from western or middle western states, although letters come from all parts of the mainland.
