The hands pointed to the fact that at a certain 7 o'clock years and years before it had stopped. But it was such a pretty, quaint even if it couldn't keep time. It was late one evening when Peggy, who was 5, had gone to bed and John, her brother, three years older, was about to go that he sud- denly noticed the little black clock grinning. Its hands were stretched No longer' did they point to 7 o'clock. “Hello, out hello, hello,” came a whisy from the little black clock. They went and stood before it. “Did you speak by any chance?" he asked A “I certainly did. I've been wait- ing for ages and ages for you to notice me at bedtime. Do you want to come with me? You may call Peggy if vou like. But mind, no one else! my secret.” 4 “You have a secret?” John asked. “Then, that's what makes you look so nice—why we all like you.” “Of course I have a secret,” said the little black clock. “Get Peggy first and Tl tell you.” John went and quietly woke Peg- gy. The rest of the family was downstairs. “Years and years ago I decided T'd stop telling the ordinary time, was allowed to use some magic| which lets me turn myself back- ward or forward to any time at all except the correct time. So for the rest of the world I seem to be 7 o'clock. Come! We must be off. How far shall night?” “Oh, when the Indians used to own the country,” said John. So the clock turned ‘round and ‘round until the whole scene chang- ed and it was several hundred Indian tepee. l Foreign and Domestic Woolens ] in Stock Correct Fashions and Fabric F.

The device in reality is a television transmitter coupled to a television receiver and so designed as to operate with invisible infra- red rays. The lens of the noctovisor, Which looks like a hig camera casts an invisible image in infra-red light upon the exploring disk of a trans- mitting televisor. The receiving apparatus in the same box catches this image and reproduces it sim- ultaneously in visible light. In the demonstration an automo- bile headlight on a car three miles away was hidden behind a sheet to the naked eye. Nevertheless the noctovisor located it easily. Baird explained that the device, being sensitive to the infra-red rays, could detect the light even though shielded by ebonite. The invisible rays penetrate eb- onite, fog and other, substances wholly or partially impervious to i visible light rays and are balked only by wood. Maritime commerce has shown interest and arrangements have been made to try out the device on a British ocean liner. Military applications also have been sug- gested, if further tests support early experiments. |} | Canvas Collapsible Boats | The terror darkness has held for many may be dissipated by this NOW ON DISPLAY sncuted instrument that sees in the dark or fog.
