Prehistoric Trees.
Growing Again
More than 100,000,000 veers
ago a tall handsome tree - a
species of conifer known es the
water cypress - grew luxuri-
antly in various parts of Asia,
Europe and North America,
Vast glacial movements slow-
ly wiped them all out, finally
making them extinct, Or so most
naturalists believed er until a
short Lime ago.
Then a party of forestry ex-
perts were astonished to come
upon a few survivors of these
"long-dead" trees growing in a
remote province of China,
These "living fossils," as they
were called, were carefully
transplanted on a mountain in
the warm south of China and
large numbers of them have
now grown to a height of ten
feet.
Their growth is so swift that
there is a plan to use them for
the creation of a kind of "Green
Wall" of China and to use them
also for filling in gtips in the
Great Wall of China itself.
The trees will not only check
sand movement in desert areas
but they will also conserve wa-
ter and yield timber which will
one day provide charcoal.

Sand Artists C)n
British Beaches
Imagine hovi you would feel
if you were a skilled artist and
liad to destroy your works penis,
edically, or have them destroy-
ea for -- when the tide
came lnl
That, has always been the ftus.-
trating experience of most sand
artists and sculptors at Qettacle
resorts in Britain.
And those attractive sand pic-
tures and _models which escaped
damage from wind and wave
have often hem ruined by
beach hooligans or by frolicsome
dogs,
Perhaps that's why sand artis-
try is now at a low ebb in Bri-
tain, although it still flourishes
on some of the larger Gamin-
ental beaches.
Another reason for the ever
•dwindling number of sand
artists is that larger crowds
than ever before throng the
beaches and so ° it becomes in-
creasingly difficult to find suit-
able sites,
The finest sand artist and
sculptor ever seen along Bri-
tain's south coast was John. Su-
chomlin. H is amazine
°
models,
made using only sand, water
and some colouring matter, were
admired by millions.
Some were so detailed mat
they took him six weeks to exe-
cute on a Bournemouth beach
site which.' was sheltered and
out of reach of the sea, except
during rare periods of storm.
One s a.n ci• sculpture by this
black - beretted artist depicted
the late King with the Queen
(now the Queen Mother), shar-
ing a seat with their two daugh-
ters, The figures were life-size
and good likenesses.
The artist - a portrait painter
who had begun to construct
masterpieces in sand because
commissions were so few - a.so
modelled Bible scenes and illus-
trated Greek myths and legends.
One subject which took him six
weeks to complete in 1931,
showed an unemployed family
and was entitled: Pinch of Pov-
erty.
When a young boy, comealan
Tony Hancock, who was then
living at the seaside, often
watched Mr. Suchomlin at work.
And he never forgot his vivid
artistry.
Hancock's latest film about a
Punch and Judy man owes some
of its inepiration to this sand
artist for a sand artist is one of
the characters in the story.
Before starting on the film
Hancock issued an appeal to
local residents for any photo-
graphs they might have of Mr.
Suchomlin's masterpieces f o r
possible incorporation in the
film.
When the Second World War
began, most of Britain's sand.
artists gave up this work. For
"with invasion threatening, the
beaches which had been their
pitches were officially closed
and covered with barbed wire
and tank traps,
Those bronzed, elderly men
one occasionally sees sculpting
on the seashore today, say that
it hardly pays them to practise
their craft.
One who at the height of the
season sometimes collected $75
a week says his average "tak-
ings" for 1962 so far are no
more than $20 a week - and he
has to work very hard to earn
that.
At one resort there is an ex-
perienced sand sculptor who
finds that specializing in models
of cathedrals and castles brings
in more money than did the
"portraits in sand of popular
persons" of his youth,
The art of drawing on smooth
sand seems to be hereditary in
some families, including the
Walker family of Ramsgate,
Kent.
In 1945 Mr, Philip Walker, be-
longing to the third generation
of sand artists, revealed that
some of his finest work was
done with a table knife, a small
weeding fork and a flat piece
of wood.
leis specialties? Lighthouses,
castles and churches.
Victorian sand artists some-
times worked on a grand scale.
One executed what he called
"a reciernbent female figure,"
with flowing draperies, which
was 15 ft. long,
Themes like "Love Rules the
World" were very popular with
holidaymakers in those days.
Several modern sand artists
in Belgium have evolved a me-
thod of gumming sand portraits
of famous people to wOoden
squarei which are offered for
sale to tourists in the Bruesels-
IVialines district. Belgian sand
artists have also executed den-
tate carpets of sand in which
exquisite coloured reproductions
of Flemish and Dutch Old Mae.
tars are enshrined.
These beach "paintings" are
too large to last long, so from

molish them and Mart work. on

Beans, for instance, fall asleep
regularly. When they awake -
their leaves rise.
By flashing a light, botanists
tried to eheke them out of bed
in the middle of the night, The
beans woke up; their leaves rose
for a second. Then they went
back to sleep.
But their clockwork had al-
ready been reset; from then on,
without the scientists' flashlight,
they woke up and lifted their
leaves at the same hour every
night. Then, a second later, they
fell asleep again.

A. former member of the Unit-

live in the Soviet Union, recently
left Moscow by train, He had
his own passport-he had appar-

and infant child. He began the
process of obtaining the neces-
sary papers for himself and fam-
ily last autumn and they came

This man is furnishing one of
the really good object lessons as
to what it means to live in the
U.S.S.R. He was given a job in
a factory in Minsk and suffered
no more than the usual difficul-
ties of life in Red Russia. The
fact that he got so thoroughly
fed up under average living
conditions should prove again,
and in a forceful sort of way,
that a citizen of this country has
a very great deal to be grateful

Useless watch - and buy an Oy-
ster instead, For scientists have
discovered that oysters are bet-
ter timekeepers than the most
expensive watch.
When oysters were caught at
New Haven, Connecticut, and
shipped in sea-water to Evanston,
Illinois, 000 miles from the sea,
they began opening their shells
exactly at the time the tide began
rising at New Haven. The shells
were fully open to coincide with
high tide at their old home,
Like the tide, oysters' clock-
work is geared to the moon.
After a few weeks in Evanston,
the oysters changed their sched-
ule. They "forgot" about the tide
St New Haven and followed the
Movements of the moon at Eva-
ston.
But oysters are not the only
creatures of time.
Honeybees set their cloCks by
hunger. If you feed them at a
certain hour every day their
stomachs will operate the alarm
'bells just in time to get them to
the place where the food is wait-
ing. And if you stop giving them
food, they'll still return to the
feeding spot at the right moment
for quite a while,
Birds use their own universal
time system to great effect. Ob-
servers watched birds in Eng-
land and found they had a set
timetable. The birds flew out to
seek food every day at the same
hour,
When they were flown by jet
to Canada, the birds paid no at-
tention to human clocks Or later
nightfall, They kept their own
timing until, weeks later, they
couldn't bear apparently to go on
searching for food in midnight
darkness, so they reset their
"alarm-clocks."
Plants, too, live round the
clock. And they can't be cheated. HEARING AIDS
