Press Comments Favorable
Press comments have been very favorable concerning Mr. Pillibursh's work. The January 1929 issue of the Popular Science Monthly said:
"The secret of what takes place in the heart of a rose, as it unfolds from the bud, is revealed for the first time. It was recently made by a Berkeley, Calif., photographer of botanical subjects. Mr. Pailbury employed an X-ray tube to expose the stems of flowers in a row of delicate subjects on the film, without destroying them. This tube was designed especially for the work "Dr. William D. Coolidge, inventor of the apparatus to record other delicate unseen operation, such as the knitting of honecured fractures in the legs of rats, in which the bones are screwed up." Geen's egg, and similar subjects. Eventually it may be employed to make motion records, for the study of human movement mechanism of the human body."
National Geographic Opinion
Bilbert Gravenson, president of the National Geographic Society, shows the pictures of Mr. Pilibakky very instructive and of "considerable edu-
cence."
"The Washington members of the National Geographic Society, who had visited a field on wild flowers, showed great appreciation of your extraordinary photographs and pictures are highly instructive as well as unusually entertaining, and are of interest to anyone becomes a fascinating subject to any one when illustrated in this manifold."

Survey, under the direction of Doctor Moore, with the general title of Geologist, led the study. The story of the fossil formation was interposed by terse comments and questions of the two students. The business of understanding what happened to the rocks in the history they represent, according to Doctor Moores, isn't any harder when he begins his job than when he begins for the ordinary boy. The Grand Canyon is a panoramic view of the earth's history, "a place where we can see peck marks of geological changes. The widening of the Grand Canyon is due to the action of the side canyons that have eroded the landscape. This is a plight trunk-line railroad and the side canyons the branch line feeders. The imminent work of excavation in the canyon is the work of running water and all that is needed is enough time."
