SKELETONS ARE IN DEMAND
Shortage of Osseous Structures of Hu-
manity Is Reported — Profiteers
Seemingly Got Busy
Tliis is not really as gruesome as
it sounds remarks a writer in Lon-
don Answers The most essential
impedimenta of the medical student
is a skeleton and at the moment
there is a considerable dearth in the
latter commodity
Before the war medical men and
students used to purchase the mate-
rial required for carrying out an-
atomical examinations from Paris
Now for some unaccountable rea-
son the supply has been greatly de-
creased and unhappily the prof-
iteer has also stepped in Four or
five guineas was the utmost asked
for a complete skeleton in prewar
times now the price is at least ten
guineas
A certain humor is lent to the
situation by the appearance in medi-
cal journals of advertisements ask-
ing the loan of a skeleton for a short
period I It recalls the savory con-
versation between Bob Sawyer and
his fellow student Benjamin Allen
at the breakfast table when Ding-
ley Dellites were regaled with de-
tails concerning the competition for
the possession of a skull at “Bart’s”

AIRSHIP POSSIBILITIES
Several American commissions
have recently mado an investigation
into the aircraft conditions in dif-
ferent parts of the world and they
agree that the country has the op-
portunity to lead the world in civil-
ian aeronautical activities and as a
market for aircraft in 1920 It was
the joint opinion of these commis-
sions that the United States is ahead
of all other countries in number of -planes
actually ordered and bought
for civilian purposes number of
aerial transportation lines being or-
ganized actual daily performance of
the aerial mail service and volume
of mail carried and possibilities for
the use of aircraft for commercial
purposes and that the fact that the
post office has proved that military
planes can be converted into mail
carriers makes possible the utiliza-
tion of service planes to meet the
immediate demand which manufac-
turers are unable to meet
BRAZIL WANTS IMMIGRANTS

deavoring to facilitate the coming

third-class passage from Europe
