One of these devices is to the el- ectro-csrdiograph which shows the \vrcn's heart to beat between 200 and 800 times a second. Another de-

vice is the “wrenograph" which shows Mrs. Wren to be very restless, leaving her nest numerous times, day and night. A thermocouple and chart, just like many used in factories to measure the tempera- tures of boilers, records the. tem- perature of the wrenls nest. This also bobs up and down with the bird's restless action.

Romance In - Pearling Industry

(Canadian Press)

i PERTH, Australia, March 2.—The Australian pearling industry, secret- lve and mysterious, has recorded an- other romance. T. B. Ellles, r. Cin- galese who holds the key position among the pearl dealers at Broome, Northwest Australia, has sent a par- ticularly magnificent rope of grad- uated gems to a dark-eyed girl in Ceylon, who has been bethroted to him since she was six months old.

Australians know little about. the pearl business. It is controlled largely by Asiatlcs who keep. their own secrets. There is none more adept at this than Elites.

The diminutive, swarthy Conga]- ese sits in a. little office under a powerful light and plays his rolc as "the man who never talks." Pearls come to him in the mstchboxes, in the corners of handkerchiefs, im- bedded in cheap cakes of soap and 1n other curious ways.

"F/xeat. pearls must not be talked about," he says. "Unlike many of the beauties who wcsr them, they lose their lustre if there is too much gossip."

Ellies is reputed to be the clever- est of pearl doctors. By removing blemishes, he has raised the value of a pearl from $500 to 310.000. It was no surprise to those who knew or his work that a few years ago he sent a fortune to build a temple in Ceylon.

Eligibility 57 Women As Elders In United Church

TORONTO, March 2.—Ellgibltity of women to become members of ses- sion or elders in congregations of the United Church of Canada is a. ques- tion that is being ‘remitted by gen-

eral council to prcsbytertes and pas-i

toral charges.

Instructions as to voting on the question are being assured from the General Council's central office here. The enabling legislation would sub- stitute the words “members 1n full member nip for the word "men" 1n the clause of church law referring to kirk sessions. The remit reads: Shall provision be made to permit the elec- tlon of women as members of the session?

Reference to the presbyteries is made under the barrier act, which prescribes that certain important amendments require the concurrence of presbyteries. In addition, the General Council decided to consult

Sees Millions _ A iIn Cull Apples

HAMILTON, March 2.—If Canada drinks only a quarter the cider that England annually takes as a tem- pcrance drink, fruit growers here will have a market worth possibly $12,000,000 for their cull apples, ac- cording to M. B. Davis, Dominion chemist, whose address was ‘read here today to the fruit growers‘ convention. Dr. Davis is in Nova. Scotia.

Dr. Davis envisioned an Canadian consumption of barrels of cull apples in Where Canadian growers almost give their cull apples away, the English grower, he said, got from $20 to $46 a. ton for them. His 12.- 000000 estimate was based on a price of $20 per ton. ,

With an alcoholic content of less than two and a half per cent, the cider could be sold in soda fount- nins all over the country as a soft drink, W. B. Somerset told the convention. He enthusiastically pointed out the effect. it would have on apple market expansion in On-

the most famous Indian trisls in British Columbia's history resulted in theiconviction of a. woman and a man on charges of practicing witch- craft.
