DIONNE QUINS TO MAKE
| MIDGET
UNDERSEA CRUISERS
FRANCE MAY COPY GERMAN IDEA
Paris, Dec. 1. The midget or vest- pocket cruisers and tor- pedo boats which have been So successfully! adopted by the Germans have started the French wondering whether the idea could not be applied to underwater craft as well.

Far from building a navy on the samo lines of that of 1914, the Germans are busily putting together, one that is radically different, mying greatest stress tɅ speed and flexibility. Ger- many startled the world in 1930 with her vestpocket cruisers of 10,000 tons each. Two are com- pleted and two others are being constructed.
This year Germany again sprung a surprise by introducing the vest pocket torpedo boats, also known as flying boats or death boats. They have a displacement of 200 tons and are capable of attaining a speed of 65 miles per hour.
Ever since Germany renounced the Versailles treaty and was given an ulicin whitewash by the British Ad- miralty in connection with her future navy,
France has become more deter- mined than ever to maintain her Raval
traditional superiority over her
France 18 enemy. Consequently seriously considering revising her building programme drastically to match the new German units.

FILM
New York, Dec. 1. Canada's Dionne quins are to become film stars. That is official. Contracts have been signed between their chief guardian, Mr. David Croll, On- tario's Welfare Minister, and Twentieth Century Films.
They will appear in a picture called "The Country Doctor," based on their own lives and that of the physician who saw them into the world, Dr. A. R. Dafoe,
Nursory Sconos
It is expected that Dr. Dafoe will have a part,
́All the scenes will be taken in the nursery of the quin- tuplets' home at Callander.
Their fund, which already totals £40,000, will be greatly enriched by the contract. Dr. Dafoe will be in complete charge when the scenes with the babies are being taken, and I will make himself responsible for seeing that their health does not suffer.
If the quins do any talking in their picture, it will be in two languages. They are learning their mother tongue, French, as well as English.
Can the quins act? Look at them (reading downward): Emelie registera "Please"; Aunette-inquiry; Maric- concentration; Cecili-emphasis; Yvon- ne-amazement.
