LARGEST KNOWN FOSSIL BONE Discovery Made In Northern New Mexico Is lnterestlngfor More Than One Reason. The largest shoulder blade of any anlmn! on record, ancient or modern, has been discovered In S.in Junn basin lu northern New Mexico by John It. lteeslde, Jr., of the United States geological survey. H'hls soapula bone is part of un Immense extinct dinosaur estimated to be out one hundred feel long and markedly larger than any previously known to have existed. Charles K. Olluiore of the National museum In Washington has assembled the collection of pieces or this ssll scapuln and lias found lhat the total length of the hone Is more than live feet, n. 'ally as tall as a man. This Is the times the length of the shoulder iilade of u cow of today. The large fossil wns found In the part of ttio earth '! was deposited and formed In the Upper Cretaceous era, and this Inilliiiles to the geologist that the dinosaurs lhed ut n later geologic (linn than they had previously supposed. This fact has created more stir In geological circles than the size of the fossil. Dinosaurs wero large reptiles with long necks, little heads and brains, nnd Iqng tails. Their bodies look somewhat like that of nn oversl.ed elephant with hind legs longer than fore legs. They dominated the earth In the days wheO the limestone beds were laid, but for some reason dis appeared from the earth to give place to smaller and livelier animals. Got a "Winter" Ma.!.

Lots of other kids were marked 'winter,' loo." His mother examined tho paper, on which the teacher, by way of variety, had Inscribed a his cipher. "Why, Hint's ns bad as yesterday," the mother explained. 'That's zero. Why did you say you were marked winter'?" "Well, winter Is zero. Isn't It?" re bponded the joungster. Exchange. Machine Gun Back In 17757 A controversy us to who first In vented machine guns. Is oae of the war's aftermaths lu France. Lyon puts forth ,the claim of a M. uu Perron, who, In 1775, Is said to have submitted to the young King Louis XVI, n military "orguo" which worked on a crunk system und could flro twenty-four bullets "nlmost simul taneously, and consequently could an nihilate a wholo regiment In u few minutes," uccordlng to a contemporary record. The new Svenpon appeared to be so murderous that the king nnd his minis-' ters rejected It, nnd Its inventor was held up as an enemy of humanity. The powers hostile to France tried to secure the Invention, but M. du Per ron refused their offers from patriotic motives and died In poverty. Mushroom Grows Under Snow.
