Babson Babson Park, Fla., Feb. 17 (Special to Mail Tribune) Once each year 1 like to write about things to come as I see them. These sugges tions are not original with m e, however. They are based on talks which I have had with leading scien tists and in ventors. 1. It is be lieved that ex periments will soon start in con nection with individuals flying as do eagles, gulls and carrier pigeons. An alloy of magnesium and titanium should enable an individual to carry a very light engine and wings. Furthermore, new powerful cases being de veloped would enable a very small, light, turbine engine to lift and propel an individual This person may be obliged to wear a special suit containing light gas. It is true that nothing of the kind has as yet been de veloped, but it is on the drawing boards. Far greater speeds for commercial planes are definitely assured. Within five years I ex pect to fly from New York to Los Angeles In two hours. Alloy Serving Ai Partial Insulator For Gravity Possible 2. Considering the millions of possible alloys which have not yet been gravity tested, it is pos sible that someone will stunioie on to an alloy which serves as a partial insulator for gravity By the use of such for stair treads, it would require no more effort to walk upstairs than to walk on the level. In addition to such a discovery being a great boon to those with heart trouble, it will be welcomed by all mer chant? who have great difficulty in getting customers to go up Topped carrots sold for 11 a lug on the Portland eastside farmers wholesale produce market today.

Chemists are making head way in preparing sugar, pro teins and yeasts from small trees and other food direct from grasses, water and sunshine These experiments are to "by. pass' the cow and the steer, both of which are now very ineffi' cient manufacturers of milk and beef! The whole study of diet is in a most elementary stage. We will have much more tasty and nourishing food direct from the use of minerals, sun shine, water and air, at much lower prices. We will buy peaches, ground up, skin, flesh and seed; meats and fish ground up, body and skin; while lob sters will be sold claws, meat and tamalc all ground into a de licious paste suitable for lobster bisque or thcrmidor. These prep arations will be more tastv and nourishing and sell for ICS's money because of the reduced labor involved. Power Of Mind Over Matter Tested In Laboratory 4. The power of the mind over matter has been emphasized by certain religious organizations; but only recently has such power been tested in laboratories. I am especially interested in the work of Professor J. B. Rhine of Duke university, Durham, N. C. His experiments definitely prove that the mind acting upon a plant or planted seeds can have a direct effect in hastening or retarding growth. The Fonda Horse, three miles south of Rich mond, Va., is worthy of study. 5. The use of plastics has, as yet, hardly been scratched. Wom en are carrying plastic bags and are wearing plastic raincoats; but other plastic materials, includ ing rugs and dress goods, are about ready for the market. The purpose of these is to entirely eliminate weaving by rolling out the goods from a liquid the same as paper is now made. Leather shoes, which now require about 100 separate operations, will some day largely be discarded for quickly moulded shoes. Such plastic shoes should stand up longer, be more beautiful, re quiring only 10 workers instead of 100, and will sell for half pres ent prices. Great Movement Toward Church Consolidations Seen 6. I visualize a great move ment toward church consolida tions. Many readers may not class such a movement as "mirac ulous" as some of the above de velopments, but it will be. No wealth, inventions or new prod ucts will make the world a bet ter place in which to live unless accompanied by a spiritual awak ening. All these can be used cither to construct or to destroy according to the peoples' relig ious faith. The first step to such a spiritual awakening will be church consolidations and a uni versal religion. PIGEONS NO HURRY Homer, Neb.
