This is an Important fact. Many other kinds of water animals had shells around them, but there were no bones Inside their bodies. In the latter part of the Age of Pishes some fish found their way to salt water.

There they could feast on seaweeds and could eat Dear Helen Worth The Girl Scout troop of which I am the leader, located in the Bushwick section, is making scrapbooks for the USO, containing completed serial stories from popular magazines. We are having great difficulty getting the necessary material, as the majority of people have been selling their discarded magazines to the scrap-paper campaign or surrendering them for the book campaign. If any of the readers have consecutive numbers for 1942 or 1943 of the well-known magazines such as Good Housekeeping, Ladies' Home Journal, American, our Scouts would be glad to pick them up. A. W.

My dear A. like a mighty fine idea. Letters from per sons interested will be forwarded. HELEN WORTH. Needs Earphones Dear Helen Worth I am partly hard of hearing (not deaf alto gether).

I wonder if you or any of your readers could tell me where I could get earphones for my radio? When we had our own home and I played the radio loud so I could hear lt didn't make any difference. But I am alone now and to a small apartment where playing the radio loud is out of the question. I thought maybe one of your readers might have a set of earphones which they no longer use. Or maybe someone could tell me here I could get them. It would mean a lot to me and the nights wouldn't be so long lonesome.

I have a friend who would be willing to fix them to radio for ir if I could get a set. I tried quite in the section I live but they haven't any and they don't know of anywhere I could get them. Whatever Information you can get 111 be more than grateful. KAY.

HELEN WORTH. Airboot Goes in Production San Diego, Cal. (U.R) Mass production has Just been announced of the "world's fastest airboat." The twin-engined model 31 seaplane was first launched to May, 1939, and amazed all concerned with ita speed. The four-year delay to getting it into mass production was due to the necessity of waiting till there was an ample supply of the 2,000 horsepower Wright Cyclone engines available. It will be produced by the Consolidated Aircraft Corporation at its New Orleans plant.

That is how it Is today, and we may suppose it was the same long ago. Certain fish of tnat time were armored." Their heads and the front parts of the body were covered with hard shields. Some fish also had good coats of scales to cover the rest of the body.

Thanks to shields and scales, the armored fish were able to escape being eaten, at least to a large extent. On their part they were able to swallow fish which had no hard coverings. Some armored fish grew tengin oi ia ieet or more. (For SCIENCE section of your Tomorrow: The Age of Ferns.

Uncle Ray's Corner Armored Fish Escaped Attacks of Enemies In the far past history of the earth there was a long period which scientists call the "Devonian Age." The name came from Devonshire, a part of England with rocks which go back to that time. There are Devonian rocks to many other parts of the earth, but those in southwestern England were studied at the time the name was given.

In the rocks were found skeletons of many kinds of fish. Another name lor mat perioa is the "Age of Pishes." It was given because fish were then the largest forms of animal life. Water covered a great deal of space where we now have Islands and continents. Besides the broad oceans there were fresh-water lakes and rivers. It is believed that the first fish lived in fresh water, not In the salt Saved to the rocks are skeletons of fish only two or three inches long.

Other skeletons show fish of larf 8lze; Many fish of that time had well- developed backbones. Others seem I to have had more cartilage than bone inside their bodies..
