GRATITUDE FOR DEMOCRACY “Whistle While You Work”—The melody of that cinema-popularized air lingers in thought as we read in a iLos Angeles newspaper that a group of women from an institution­ al home in Pasedena have formed a whistling chorus Which is in demand for school, church and auditorium appearances. The women have dis­ covered that whistling lifts the face, rubs out wrinkles, turns back the calendar, routes the blues, straight- 'ens the shoulders; incidentally it may -be tuneful, if properly executed Whistling, these women have found is a mood rather than a mechanical performance. It requires buoyant thoughts and expectant outlooks to whistle convincingly. And so another department of human experience adds testimony to the Biblical dic­ tum that “A .good man out of the good treasure of his heart hrlngeth forth that which is good/* TVs not the whistling that does it; it’s the ■sentiments behind the whistle.

We are also told that the estimated-pop­ ulation of the earth is Two Billion people. Then it is safe to assume that the average .human consump­ tion of food and liq-uid is Two Bil­ lion Ton each year. If the average life span is, say -50 years, each gen­ eration consumes around One Hun­ dred Billion tons of food and liquid. The weight of the earth is estim­ ated at iSix Thousand Trillion tons. With this as a basis, you can esti­ mate how long it will take the hu­ man race to eat itself out of house and home. .Sure, we know the first anwer will be that there is a theory of chem­ ical conversion—that nothing solid or liquid is lost from the planet. And when you have reasoned this far, how about the other animal and bird and fish life—and the tonnage of food and liquid they consume in a period of fifty years. We just haven't the time to figure it all out—what with writing next week’s column and all. 'So if you have the time and don’t know what else to do With the answers after you have finished your calculation, send them to this column. We’ll like to know how many of our readers like to play with figures as we do. Three Oddities in •News t Once in a while odd items appear in print.
