First Use of Windows Is Traced to Egyptians Egyptians were the first people to make use of windows. At that time they consisted merely of narrow slits between slabs of stone and were for the sole purpose of admitting light. It was many centuries before win dow panes were invented. These were made of thin slices of marble which admitted a certain amount of light and also gave privacy to the home. Windows of this type were first used in Greece in 430 B. C. Apparently the use of glass in win dows was invented by the Romans. Windows during this period were merely small doors which swung in and out on hinges. It was to an unknown Dutch inventor that the honor came of being the first to con struct a window sash. This was about the middle of the Seventeenth centxiry. \ Meanwhile, various materials oth er than glass, which originally was very expensive, were used. Waxed paper and isinglass were pressed into service. The window of today represents evolutionary processes that have run for 3,000 years and possibly more. Buzzard Migration The annual southward migration of buzzards was so great through San Gorgonio pass in California this year that the birds blacked out the sky. More than 4,000 of the birds were estimated to have made the mass flight south through the pass. Wings for Cupid Aviation recently extended a help ing hand to a \ouple from Beverly Hills, Calif., who were unwilling to wait the, required three days for their wedding after filling marriage intentions. They v;ere married in a plane three miles above the earth by Captain Richard Bowman, who brought down a sealed barograph to prove that the necessary height had been achieved. The couple said that it was their intention to prove that a marriage by an airplane cap tain three miles above the earth was as legal as one performed by the captain of a bo^ at sea three Ancient Roman Theaters Ancient theaters of early Rome began their plays by dropping a cui lain from view, not by raising it as in the modern theater. This was discovered by archeologists in specting old records and remains of early Roman dramatic scenes. Dur ing the time of Augustus, theaters were built-without roofs. The cur tain was held high on each side of the stage and as the play got under way, braces holding the cur tain were released, dropping the curtain into a slot at the front of the stage. Theaters in early Roman days made our modern “movie pal aces” seem tiny by comparison; the smallest of three Augustan theaters seated 8,000 persons, while the larg est seated 17,000.
