Beautiful Dreams. Sir Ernest Shaclaleton was alwayva fond of a good story. Here is one that he used to tell about himself, A gush- ing lady had boon introduced to l].4m, and began at once to talk about his voyages. "I always think," she said, "that one must have such wonderful dreams while leading that kind of A. despatch from London says: - just two weeks after Sir Ross Smith crashed to death while testing the ma- chine in which he proposed to make a flight raround the world, announce- ment is made that Major W. T.`Blake is taking up the project orf the world flight and will start at the end of May. Major Blake was the British avia- tion expert for the London Daily News during the World War, and e rote a nu niter of an -Bolles which were widely read. He is famous in the Royal Air Folates, had a brilliant War record, and is regarded as one of the keenest pilots in the world. The navigator on the woeld trip 'wi11 be Oaptain Norman MacMillan, )who accompanied Major Blake when the latter covered the Moroccan war by airplane in. 1921. On his world trip Maier Blake ex- pects to fly eastward, and will try to complete the flight in sixty days. "The route will be from. England to France, Italy, Greece, Egypt, Mes- opotamia, India, Eastern China, Ja- pan, thence by way of the Aleutian Islands to Alaska, across Canada and the United States to New York," said Major Blake. "We will fly across the Atlantic from Newfoundland by way of Green- land, Iceland, and Scotland, thus mak- ing the longest sea passage about 800 miles. The trip will be so timed ars to give us the most favorable meteor- ological conditions. We wibl use the isanre organization which supported Sir Ross Smith."

Japan and Chita Prod Surto of Way; Young Scientists Needed. }'fere are a few of the problems faced by the men in the paper and pulp industry in Canada. They have heavy losses every year as a result of the decay of wood in storage. Also some mills now have to haul their 'logs long distances. Also, and this fact is not generally known, the pulping processes have been only slightly improved in the last fifty years. The value of the industry will be inereased at least 25 per tent. when all these probieme are solved, but a great deal more intensive scientific investigation is necessary in connec- tion with each one of them. An effort to supply the deficiency in trained men is being made by the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research of Ottawa. Arrangements have been made to award 7 Fellow- ships, 9 Studentships and 29 Bursar- ies among men who are taking scien- tific courses, and it is hoped that among them may be found suitable scientists who will devote themselves to the solution of the problems of the pulp and paper industry among others. d+ Russian Government Issues New Money • A despatch from Moscow says: - While private brokers are offering more than four million paper rubles to the dollar, and food prices are soaring proportionately, tie Govern- ment m, . has announced a new issue of money in probably the largest de- nominations ,of the world.
