The Government has started on a $3,000,000 scheme to lower the lake. To prevent the eels running out to sea with the water, en- gineers have hit upon a scheme of electric shocks. Across each channel draining the water to the sea, traps equipped with electrodes will be dropped. All that is necessary to shoo back the eels is to turn on the current. Experiments in a tank showed that 80 per cent of the eels in the enclosure fought shy of such electrical contrivanees. - Traces of “Lost” Village Found by Nazi Workers of FIANKFURT - ON - MAIN, Ger- | Traces of the village Mittel- h geologists had vainly several decades, were dis- | >d by workers constructing a: tc road near here. “disappeared” three | ago during the ravages of in the Thirty Years' war.

Sports hats generally are design- ed of drapable felts in tones of dark green, brown and navy with soft crowns and up-relling brims which can be pulled and draped almost any way the wearer choses. Skull Cap Togues That same idea of changing your hat to suit your face is carried out in afternoon models, some of which can be worn “backward or for- ward.” Skull cap togues of black felt are finished with shirred felt wheels and may be worn so that the wheel slants over the eyes or lies against the back of the head, rising above the erown like a halo.
