The academy refused to attend a luncheon and clinic scheduled in their honor at the massive Henry Ford hospital in the automotive capital. Dr. Johnston B. Kennedy, nationally known surgeon, says he doesn't blame the surgeons for ignoring the invitation.

Restoration of the stability of the franc is the huge task which confronts the French ministry of finance as M. Francois Marsal takes the portfolio in the new cabinet formed by Polineare. He has long been known as a financial expert. He has announced a policy of strict economy. Sir Charles Parsons. Details of the process developed by Sir Charles Parsons, famous English inventor, for making diamonds, are at last becoming known. The manufacture of diamonds is no longer a dream, but an actuality. Sir Charles' only materials for creating the precious stone are a rifle, a lump of steel and a little carbon. He drills a hole in a steel block and fills it with carbon in granular form. Into this hole he places the muzzle of his rifle and fires a steel bullet. Due to the high velocity of the projectile and its small striking surface there is produced momentarily upon the carbon a pressure equivalent to several thousand tons to the square inch. An examination of what is left in the hole after the experiment shows the presence of a number of tiny diamonds. Above, Thomas B. Felder, Jesse Smith (left) with Daugherty.

On a boulevard that is the main artery of traffic between Pittsburg and Cleveland, with hundreds of machines dodging him and whistling by, young Paul rode to Youngs-town, the whole 20 miles on his tricycle. His uncle lives in Youngs-town. It was dusk as the younger rode through the public square. His uncle had worked overtime and while waiting for a street cat sighted his nephew. Then there was much telephoning to anxious parents and police of two cities. Ermine in a dense shade makes very handsome trimming for this wrap around coat.
