MASTODON SKELETON
FOR TIENTSIN
Million-Year-Old Mammal For Museum
Skeleton of a nuge elephant-like mammal that roamed north China perhaps a million years ago is now being assembled in the Huang Ho Pai Ho museum at the Hautes Etudes on Race Courte Fload, Tientsin. This newest exhibit has the name of Stegedon and is be- Hleved to have lived at the end of the Tertiary period, before man, as such, came into existence. The skull. tusks and neck are already on display. It is expected to take two months to erect the entire body, says the "North China Star." The specimen, when completed. will be the only one of its kind in
the celling. Iron rods will also be used to hold up the body.
"A Flying
Laboratory"
"A flying laboratory" for the de- velopment and testing of several major aliing projects has been established in-California, U.S.A. by United Ar Lines, according to W A. Patterson, president of the line. One of the company's twin-ongin- ed airliners has been withdrawn from passenger service, placed at the disposal of the company's technical department and equip- ped as an aerial "house of magic."
From end of tusks to tail the buge relic will be more than 24 feet in length.

The bones were scattered along a certain level in sand 80 feet be- low the surface level of the loess, which was an aeolian deposit of the Quaternary period. The sand, which is now soldified, was laid down previously by the flow of water. According to geologists, the Stegedon lived when a tropical climate prevailed in this
area.
MOTE
Like elephants to-day, it was herbivorous. inhabiting marsh lands and using its great tusks, which measure almost ten feet, to excavate for plants and roots In the mud. Since the preserved tusks are so long, the beast must have had a trunk of equal length to convey food to its mouth.
TUSKS CRACKED
Helght from ground to top of head would normally be 18 feet, which is several feet higher than any elephant grows now. Since the ceiling of the main room at the museum is not that hign, it has been decided to show the animal In the act of charging, with its head lowered to the level of the back bone, which is 12 feet high.
Although, the complete skeleton WLS not found, enough of the bones to represent all parts were recovered, so that the remaining ones can be duplicated with papier mache. Both tusks were discover- ed, with their roots of 30 centime- tres. They are cracked so, that it was necessary to support them: with metal shafts suspended from

reconstruct the skull from the
fragments obtainable, using papler
mache and glue to fill in where the bones were lacking.
It is not known whether the specimen was male or female, aince the pelvis was not complete and joined together. But there is no doubt about it being genus Stegedon, of the Mastodon group. which was an ancestor of the Mammoth, the large elephant-like beast appearing at the time of early man.

Co-operation For Defence
Sir Samuel Hoare, First Lord of the Admiralty, spoke at the an nual dinner of the Bradford Chamber of Commerce, states the "Times."

This was the reason why the creation of the It was a significant fact, he said, naval base at Singapore was essra. and a fact that had not been suftial to our security.
