DISCOVER SECRETS OF FLOATING ICE IN ATLANTIC Work« for 15 Year» on an Inlaid Table Washington, Pa.—After work ing for fifteen years on an Inlaid table, R. B. Campbell, a local carpenter foreman, has at last completed what he believes to be the finest and most unusual table of Its kind in this country. The top of the table Is 32 by 30 Inches and contains 10,082 pieces of wood of various sizes, colors and varieties. No two are alike, and Campbell says no two came from the same kind of tree. All varieties of wood found in the United States, Canada and Mexico are represented in the table and hundreds of speci mens from all the countries of South America, Australia. Asia, Africa and Europe. The middle block of the table measures 1U square Inches and contains 400 small pieces of wood.

This rate may have been exceeded temporarily by one or two of the novae, or "blaze stars,” that have flamed up In the sky only to fade away again. As faint traces of nebulosity appear around S Doradus In long time ex posures, it is assumed to be a true member of the Magellanic cloud or star cluster In which It appears.
