NEW REED ORGANS FROM S295.00, PEARSON'S STUDIO, SUSSEX, N.B, ISSUE 7 — 1957 Clrazy .Crime orrrr,rr.rm 3reaking into le bettline plant a 26-year-old men set off the burglar alarm. Yet he continued tO ransaek the place, paying no attention to the wildly clanging bell, When the Police arrived and Pounced on. him the crook ex- pleined that he had a severe business handicap, "I'm bard of hearing," he said. The past year has produced some amazing crime stories. The biggest steal occurred in August when the lights went down, in a cinema, Four hundred people settled into their seats to enjoy the film. Just below the screen everyone was watching, right under the noses of the patrons in the front stalls, the gangway was laid with rubber matting, When the lights went up again after the film, it was gone — all twenty yards of it, The flabbergasted, manager of- fered a reward to anyone who could tell him who took the mat- ting — and how. Perhaps ,the most fantastic crime story of 1956 was when three aircraft roared across Europe trailing a beribboned carrier pigeon. Acting on information pro- vided by the airmen, police la t et arrested the pigeon's "owner," Johann Sehonoff, who was accused of stealing seven prize pigeons, and then to have posted another pigeon — the one the aircrafttrailed ,on its homing flight — to the owner of the stolen birds with a de- mand for ransom. Birds in Florida Dawn on the TeMialni Trail. We had left Miami before: SW" rise for a puepoge; to be well. In the Everblades as the birds awakened and started feeding. The friend, who had planned our whole trip for us had insisted that we start out in the dark, so that we shabld not miss see, Ing a single bird and all the brids of this area, "that would, take Athos, a million years to paint." Suddenly we saw ghost wings — an owl? — then a flying night heron; but there was, not enough light to distinguish whether it was a yellow-crown- ed or a black-crowned, As visi- bility came a coot could be plainly seen, then a pied-billed grebe, and we correctly identi- fied a black-crowned night her- on, Suddenly the sun was up over the horizon. The automobile idled along, for we were in no hurry.. We were in a wildlife refuge of two' or three million acres that in- cluded the bulk of the Ever- glades, south of the Tamiami Trail, and taking in the Bay of Florida and Whitewater Bay, There was no trace of white civilization in this wilderness ex- cept thet straight road, the canal on one side, and, occasional stretches of so-called Australian pines that had been planted alongside the road. Now I am beginning to see birds thick and fast' dozens, of coots in the canal: crows, spar- row hawks, and kingfishers perched singly on vantage points above the canal that was alive with fish.'-We saw twenty black vultures perched on some boul- ders by the canal, but we stop- ped counting turkey and black vultures, for they were in vast numbers. Next came a Florida gallinule, marsh hawk,' several American egrets, and great blue heron after great blue heron (we . saw only a few little blue heron), then a huge flock of boat-tailed grackles. Near a small truck farm (how did this farm man- age to be in this refuge?) were two mockingbirds and several bluebirds perched on telephone wires. Farther along we saw three red-winged blackbirds, a green heron on a rock by the water, a cormorant, and a flock of tree swallows. Woodpeckers had been consniciously absent, but a red-bellied woodpecker put in his appearance. We came to cypress forests, the tree trunks covered with clusters of air plants, one with open red flowers that stood out as a bold splotch of color in the gray- green landscape. Often the canal was choked with water hya- cinths. These make a beautiful sight when in bloom, but are the despair of Floridians, who try in vain to keep their' water- ways cleared of this introduced plant. The banks of the canal held many flowers unknown to us until we saw a bloom we could name, the lowly thistle. In the distance we saw great numbers of American egrets and snowy egrets flying to- gether. The sight of these two types of whitee'plumaged birds was what I had been told made the TaMiami Trail so interesting. —From "Menaboni's Birds," by Athos and Sara ,Menaboni. It's no use giving people more Liberty till they've learnt to handle, what they've got., A man went up to a passer-by in New York one warm after- men last June and asked: "What city am I in!" The answer so disturbed him that he went •straight to the nearest police station. Dazed, he tried to explain to the duty ser- geant that the last thing he re- membered was being in a bar in Johannesburg — 8,000 miles away — two months earlier. The police sent him to hospital for a check up. In July, a railway wqeker in France was astounded to see snorting, hiccupping pigs stag- gering out of a truck. Hastily he called a vet. "Blind drunk," ,decided the vet when the police had taken charge of the disorderly char- deters. Eemilitilrig the train the police found that the pigs' truck had. been shunted violently et some point be its journey ertieshirig open the pigs' cages and two - barrels of the finest Bordeaux Wine.

OPPORTUNITIES FOR .-MEN AND WOMEN PERSONAL It's a surprising thing that there aren't more beards around, when you consider that the av- erage man spends •some six months of his life gloomily scraping away 456 million un- wanted whiskers from two square miles of skin. Who started this futile busi- ness? Nobody knows. But the Egyptians were definitely shav- ing 5,000 years ago. It can be a painful' enough process, too, even with a modern safety razor, Spare a thought, then, for the African tribe which uses planes of red-hot iron for a close singe; or the one in the. Pacific which clips a whisker at a time between two sharp pieces of flint. In' other parts of the world, beyond reach of razor blades, the local citizens use such un- comfortable implements as sharks' teeth, shells, pieces\ of bamboo and, broken glass. One of the sorest' cheeks in shaving history must have been suffered by Samuel Pepys, who wrote in his diary on May 2nd, 1662: " "To trimming myself, which I have done this week every morning with a pumice stone . . . I find it' very easy, speedy and cleanly, and shall continue the practice of it." " Two years later, he had chang- ed his mind: "This morning I began a practice which I find with the ease I do it with that I shall continue . . . that is to trim myself with a razor: which pleases me mightily." Men have always used a blade of some kind to rid themselves of stubble trouble. The oldest razors yet found—jagged pieces of green obsidian stone — were used in Peru 3,000 years ago. Bronze razors dredged from the BACKACHE May beWarninq How Can I? By Anne Ashley Thames and dating back to 1,000 B.C. have looped blades cast in one piece, so that a finger could be used to feel the skin while shaving. ' - Down the centuries there have been as many reasons for `shav- ing as there have been different methods of doing it. Both Peter the Great of Russia and Eliza- beth I of England pounced on beards as a profitable source of taxation. Elizabeth imposing penalty of 3s. 4d. a year on bearded priests. Alexander the Great forbade them in his armies on the . grounds that they gave enemies too convenient a handhold. To e the ancient Greeks, shaving was a sign of refinement, and Julius Caesar noted that in Britain it indicated noble birth. The first attempt at a safety razor came in 1762, when a Paris master cutler produced - a modi- fied cutthroat type, with a guard on the 'blade. The modern form of raior, with blade at an angle to the• handle, came eighty-five years later. Meanwhile, inventors had a field day, creating such weird and wonderful instruments as a cylindrical beard-grinding ma- chine,- driven by a foot treadle, and a razor to which was attach- ed a small boiler designed to soften the bristles with a jet of steam! Statisticians have had a won- derful time with shaving. It has been gravely caleulated,•for ex- ample, that the energy expend- ed on it in a lifetime is enough for a 140-1b. man to climb 764 nine-inch stairs; that the average face has 40 square inches of shaving surface, on which 25,000 whiskers grow at least a hun- dredth. of an inch in twenty- four hours.
