Perhaps the real source of error lies in the close association of two clubs with essentially similar aims.

Some duplication of members undoubtedly results from this circumstance, and the true strength of each party's following can only be determined by comparison of the rolls of clubs alike in purpose...
Professor Lipman believes that the ancient germ spores have been sealed up in minute cases, similar to the cocoons in which larvae rest. It is well known that microbes can live through great heat or cold, and remain quiescent for long periods. But the age of Professor Lipman's rods astounded even him.

Warner Bros, vitaphone uses phonographic discs for sound accompaniment with its pictures. Vitaphone and movietone had close tie-ups with cinema producing, distributing and exhibiting companies (TIME, July 9). Photophone...
