Reptile That Flew Oceans Discovered New York, Jan. 24. The skeleon of a huge flying reptile, probably the largest flying creature that ever ex isted, which In its pre-hlstoric day was as wide-ranging an ocean traveler as A modern suaplune, has been placed on exhibition at the American Museum of National History, it was announced today. Btudy of the mechanics of the crea ture's flight, which is planned by sdnntlsts may throw light on the prac tical problems of aeronautics, it Is de clared. Has No Too til. The clumsy, toothless animal a pteranodon which flourished In the nice of reptiles, many tuitions of years go, had a wing spread of 1 6 feet from tip to tip, but because of its curious dimensions may not have been as heavy as a modern candor which some times attains a 14 foot spread.

MUSICAL!: AT CHRISTIAN CHI RCU then after they have heard the best a . . . ,fevr timas, they are tiuite likely to uu- , ' , , , ' dervalue a musician of ordinary rank, Thoa who missed the musical pro-. . . , , .w than the groin given ai me inrisuan cnurcn on Wednesday evening, missed "some, thing different." Mr. and Mrs. Levinne, are two quite clever musicians who give an informal and varied evening's entertainment. One feature is the talk to the audience quite familiarly and personally (not to say intimately) about the composi tion to be rendered ,and about personal experiences relating to it. While thh can easily be carried so far as to re pel the staid and sturdy mind of the average listener, nevertheless we feel tha It was a step In the right direction. Music has too long been a snobbish, highbrow sort of thing, rather than the universal everyday language of the everyday emotions Let us hope for the time when to whistle or sing at our work or on the street, or In our social or business gatherings will be consid ered quite the isroper thing. And let us realize that underlying all of the masterpieces is a little Idea or emotion that Is common to us all. HIGH SCHOOL MCSICALE. The music department of the hiEh school Is planning a mixed program to be given at the High school auditori um, Tuesday evening, February 10th. This will include numbers by the band, orchestra and chorus .together with soloa by several talented high school pupils. By wny of diversion a few special features wll Ibe introduced. This is the first concert of the school year, and an effort will be made to have it meet your approval, so that we may merit your interest in future pro grama We hope to develop our bands, orchestras and glee clubs sufficiently that they may function not only In the lives of the lndlvlduul members, but In the sooitil life of the high school and of the city. Education for service Is the sort that everybody is talking about nowadays. We hope to do our bit toward helping the oncoming gen eration to get a little more enjoyment out of life, by helping them to tnuo their voices and instruments not only for themaelveB but for others.
