INVENT DEVICE FOB RECORDING HEART’S BEATS Chronograph Demonstrated Before Academy of Sciences. Bu I nited Press PRINCETON. N. J., Nov. 22.—A new Instrument which writes a permanent record of heart beats, picturing even the slightest variation in the pulse, was demonstrated befor scientists gathered here for the sessions of the National Academy of Sciences. The device was shown at the .closing session, as it recorded the beat of a heart, taken from a live turtle, and suspended in a salt solution. With body conditions, thus duplicated, the organ continued to function for thirty-six hours after being removed. The chronograph, as the instrument is called, is expected to be of great value to doctors and psychologists, for. by a few changes, it can be adapted to give a .permanent record of the action of the human h°art for a long period. It was invented by A. L. Loomis of Tuxedo Park. N. H. and Dr. Edmund N. Harvey, professor of psychology at Princeton university. Dr. Robert A. Millikan, director of the California Institute of Technology, told the scientists his experiments in measuring cosmic rays bear out his theory that matter is formed in interstellar space from hydrogen atoms. A certain type of ray shoots through space every time an atom of an element is* forced, according to Dr. Millikan’s theory.The rays produced in the formation of four elements, helium, oxygen, silicon, and iron, already have been recorded by delicate instruments placed in tunnels or lakes in high mountains. Some of these rays are of such tremendous energy that they penetrate the earth’s surface 500 feet.

GRETA GARBO GOT START IN SWEDEN Star Has a Sophisticated Part in ‘‘The Kiss,” Which Opens Saturday at Loew's Palace Theater. GRETA GARBO, whose latest Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer starring picture, ‘‘The Kiss.” directed by Jacques Feyder, comes to the Palace Saturday, is the product of the wisdom oi a government striving to develop the artistic in its nationals. Had the government of Sweden not established the Royal State theater, at which boys and girls can receive theatrical training without charge and under the tutelage of the nation's best stage artists, Miss Garbo might never have arisen from obscurity to success. In Sweden boys and girls with an ambition for the stage do not have to pay from their own purses for dramatic instruction at private schools.
unless they feel so inclined. The great State theater, patronized by the king and the entire royal family, books the best artists of the country and stages the best plays. Youngsters with dramatic talent and ambition appear in the choruses, or in spectacular scenes in large numbers of people are necessary. In this manner they are given an opportunity to attract the attention of stage directors, producers and artists who give them a tryout in Royal State presentations. It was at this theater that Miss Garbo made her first appearance so that she might have the benefit of working with the greatest Scandinavian artists. While there, she was seen by Mauritz Stiller, one of the foremost film directors of Sweden. Though she was playing but a very minor role, it was. sufficient for Stiller to recognize her talent and resulted in that director giving her one of the important leads in “The Atonement of Gosta Berling,’* a picture which he was filming at the time. In this role she appeared opposite Lars Hansen, who was leadig man in “The Divine Woman,” a film in which she* was starred by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and directed by Victor Seastrom. Because of her success in the production, Miss Garbo became famous and was described by Swedish film critics as one of the
most important screen finds of a decade. When Louis B. Mayer visited Europe, he witnessed a private showing of the picture and immediately offered the Swedish beauty a contract to come to America and appear exclusively in Metro-Gold-wyn-Mayer films. With her debut here in “The Torrent,” Miss Garbo proved as much of a sensation as she did in Sweden. She was almost immediately featured in “The Temptress,” and then co-starred with John Gilbert in “Flesh and the Devil” and “Love.” “The Divine Woman.” a screen play based on “Starlight,” stage vehicle some years ago for Doris Keane, saw Miss Garbo as a full Hedged star. Since then Miss Garbo has*starred

URGE BRITISH j TREASURY TO RECLUi LAND Two Million Acres to Be Gained: Employment for Thousands. BY WALLACE CARROLL I nited Press Staff Correspondent LONDON. Nov. 22.—The British treasury soon will be asked to find a few millions for reclaiming "water- j logged” land. Nearly 2.000.000 acres of English land are unproductive today because of excess water. In addition, about 2.000,000 acres are producing only half a crop or less for lack of drains and clean ditches. Advocates of reclamation hope to find the way to John Bull's pockets by showing their scheme will aid several projects which are deai 4 to the old gentleman's heart. They claim a program of reclamation will achieve the following benefits: 1. Reduce unemployment, because thousands of men will be put to work digging ditches, building drains and constructing walls along rivers and the sea; 2. Aid the farmers by increasing the productivity of land already j
cultivated” and ’ adding to she area of cultivable land: and 3. Prevent possible flood disasters, for much of the land to be teclaimed is below sea level and near tidal estuaries. Ten years ago, parliament passed a land drainage act and reclamation work was begun in a dozen counties. Nevertheless, the area suffering from excess water increased annually. Reclamationists say part of Norfolk and Lincoln need immediate attention. The Ouse, the Welland and the Nene on their way to the sea pour their waters into the lowlands. flooding some of the best farm land in England* Attempts have been made oy the

local authorises to'provfte adequate ! drainage in these districts, but they have been unsuccessful. Only a central drainage board, backed by the government, can succeed, the reci.imationists claim. Tire lack of even ordinary drain- ; age facilities is proving a severe , handicap to farmers in other parts ai the country. In Huntingdonshire, ; the population of a village dropped from 800 to 300 in twenty years because the best land had gone out of cultivation for lack of drains.
