Beloit College Graduate. Dr. Andrews was born in Beloit, | Service Association of the 3 States opened their three-day session | from Beloit College and immediately | jr the willard Hotel this morning | be Wis., where, in 1906, he graduated came to New York and the American Museum of Natural History. The early years of his scientific career and explorations, from 1908 to 1914, were devoted to study of the life | and habits of whales, on which Dr. | Andrews became an expert authority. | In 1914, after having sailed all the seven seas, Dr. Andrews turned his attention to land explorations. His | first important expedition was in the unexplored forests of Northern Korea end the Manchuokuan border. Prof. Henry Fairfield Osborn’s| prophecy that Central Asia would prove to be the incubating center for | northern mammalian life focused Dr. Andrews' attention on the possibilities | of exploring this grim plateau. He conceived the idea of a series of expe- ditions extending over a period of 10 years to explore the Central Asian Plateau. iHs ambitious program was | to learn its geological structure, fossil life, past climate and vegetation; to| make collections of its living animals, | birds, fish and reptiles, and to map the unexplored regions of the Gobi Desert. To carry out these plans ic was neces- | sary that the expedition have geolo- | gists, palaeontologists, archeclogists, | topographers and other scientists. For the first time, motor cars were to be driven into the Gobi Desert, opening a new field for future commercial | traffic. | As leader of the Central Asiatic ex- | peditions of the American museum of Natural History, Dr. Andrews took his | first expedition into the field in 1916 to work in the territory of Thibet, | Southwest China and Burma. His second expedition went into North | China and Outer Mongolia in 1919, and | the third expedition has worked in Central Asia, especially in Mongolia, since 1921, where it uncovered some of the richest fossil fields in the world. ! In 1913 Dr. Andrevs took the M. A. degree from Columbia University. In 1918 he served in the intelligence serv- | ice in China. He was awarded the | Elisha Kent Kane Gold Medal of the!

Ovaltine is a pure food concentrate approved by more than 20,000 doctors. It is highly valued because of the very noticeable increases in both weight and nerve poise which so frequently occur when Ovaltine is added to the regular daily fare. Recent scientific tests conducted with 48 school children in New ‘York showed a decrease in nervousness, in some cases, of 25% in 2 weeks (as measured by the Olson-University of Minnesota checking system)—when Ovaltine was added to the diet.
