ENGLISHWOMEN TO HELP IN CHINA

Two Englishwomen left Lon- don on August 12 for work in war-stricken China. They have equipped themselves with everything, even to their beds and bedding, and have gone as honorary luxiliary workers as- sociated with the Lord Mayor's Fund.

They say they hope to be able to do werk for the camp re- tugees in Hankow, where about 40,000 are now concentrated, and efforts are being made to establish

WELL-KNOWN COMPANY HAD AS PATRON PRES. MASARYK

OF CZECHOSLOVAKIA

The Don Cossack Choir, which recently completed a successful season in India and Java, will perform for the Brst time in the Colony at the Queen's Theatre tomorrow at 9.30 p.m.

Under the direction of M. Michael Podoli, well-known impres- sario, the Choir consists of no less than 25 accomplished singers and dancers, and was formed in Prague, where the Russian community was very large.

The songs and dances which are

performed by the Choir are tradi-

tional and have been performed FILM OF THE SUN

In the manner in which they are presented today for the past three centuries.

The Don Cossacks are very proud

of their noble origin. There are many varieties of Cos- sack, but we are the Don Cossacks and every member of my choir is a Don Cossack born and bred.". Nicholas Kostrukoff, the leader, Itold the Dally Press yesterday.

"Twelve years ago," he con- tinued. "this choir made its debut Czechoslovakia under the patronage of the great President Masaryk, and since then we have sung in most parts of the world before large and appreciative au- diences.

"We have danced and sung be fore the Pyramids in Egypt. in the Acropolis in Greece. in Europe. Australia, and South America.

75. CONCERTS IN 90 DAYS

"I was hoping some day to be able to visit your beautiful Island; and we feel sure that you will extend to us a cordial welcome," he said,

Referring to the tour.

in India Kostrukoff said that they gave 75 concerts in less than 90 days and were enthusiastleally received:

"Wait till you see some of our thrilling kalte dances" he remark- ed. "Our leading dancer performs the spirited movements of the Caucasian Cossack carrying twelve knives in his mouth, hands, chin. lips and shoulders. It is a family accomplishment. handed down from father to son in Caucasia."

Dr. Marjory Edwards has spent five years in China in charge of the medical work of the Arthington Memorial Wo-" men's Hospital at Taiyuanfu, in Shansi province. She is a zynaecologist. and since leav- ing China in 1925 has been in practice in London.

Miss E L. Beckingsale, who is a Londoner, with her home in High Wycombe.. was for fourteen years doing educational work in China. She was in Hankow when the re- volution broke out in 1911, and did a great deal of relief work then and also with the famine refugees in North China. She is a trained psychotherapist.

Remarkable Display

Of Flaming Gases

Three showings of 4 re- markable film were given in the Cavendish Laboratory, This was the first aim to be made of solar prominences., and Was taken through Я spectrohelloscope. "one of the "alds to vision," referred to by Lord Rayleigh in his presiden- tial address.

The films, were taken in the hydrogen spectrum. and speeded up 500 times.

Vast bedles of luminous gaseous matter, were seen hurling them- selves out of the sun's disk and then raining down again like fountains. The usual height of such prominences - is about 15 times the diameter of the earth.

Often apparently stationary clouds were seen from which streams radiated outwards and downwards; at other times lumi- nous material converged out of in- visibility on to a sunspot, like gan- nets diving after sh.

A Enique phenomenon

was

offered by some streams of inatter which after coming out in a curved path returned along the same path into the sun.

The instrument was devised by Dr. McMath, an American en- gineer, and the film taken at the observatory of the University of Michigan.

It should be of great scientiäc value in studying these pheno- mena, with which aurorae, mag- netic storms, and wireless fade- outs are torrelated.
