2. In Bengali "80" means "farewell"
or "I quit." A report of the East India
Company misprinted the figure to "30."
3. Linotype machines east type slugs
of 30 ems maximum..length, hence "30"
means the end of the line.
4. A telegraph operator whose num-
ber was 30 once stayed at his key
sending news of a disaster long after
his assistants had tied and until death
cause to him.
5. Lpng ago in the West despatches
were delivered by messenger from the
telegraph office to the newspaper of-
fice. The telegraph office closed at 3
a.m., hence, the operator scribbled at
the bottom of the last sheet "3 o'clock"
which became abbreviated in turn to
'3 o'c,' "3 o," "30."

6. When the Associated, Press was
established eaeli member paper was
entitled to 30 telegrams per day. Last
bf the day's quota was labelled "30.
7. Early telegraph operators had a
code for conversational asides on the
wire: 1—Wait a minute. 4—When

ter? 30—End of item. 73—Kindest

8. The 30 magistrates appointed by
Sparta over Athens at the termination
of the Pelopennesian War were called
the "30 tyrants," and were overthrown
atter one year's reign. The end of the
tyrants was heralded with a spirit of
gladness --"30."

The ,proprietor of the dairy was
angry with one of his roundsmen.
"Jones!" he stormed, "you're an ab-

Surprised, the lean put down his

Can Crocodiles Cry?
The phrase "crocodile tears" has
been used for so long that it conies as
rather a shock to learn that, according
to scientists, these reptiles can't shed
tears at all.
Travellers tell a different story, how-
ever. In one ease, when a boat was
steaming up the Indus, a crocodile. was
shot and brought aboard. As it wags
lying on deck—believed dead—the on -,I
lookers were astonished to see what
looked like tears. One of them, with,
a child beside him, bent over to look.'
At once the great jaws opened and
snapped, while the tail lashed furious-
ly. The child was just snatched back'
in time, but another spectator was
knocked down by the tail.
Some time ago, however, when ex-
perimegsta were carried out to aster-'
tain wheeler crocodiles held tears ori
not ,the reptiles refused to oblige even
when encouraged by a mixture of
onion juice and salt.

Pressure As A Genn Killer
Saturating germs with gas at high
pressure and suddenly releasing it has
been found to destroy them. Carbon
dioxid (carbonic-acid gas) is usually
employed because the germs take it
up more readily.
This .method is valuable in cases
where heat or chemicals can not be
used, and it is effective also with
larger organisms, such as sma11 In-
sects, their eggs, ol• grubs,
Says Industrial and Engineering
Chemistry (Easton, Pa.), in a descrip-
tion of the method:
"When bacteria become saturated
with, carbon dioxid at a pressure of
800 pounds per square inch, and that
pressure is suddenly released, the bac-
teria are destroyed and the protoplasm
of the cells is liberated in a colloidal
form because of the sudden expansion
of the gas within the bacteria.
"This announcement is made by
David Crowther, who was formerly at
the University of Minnesota, and more
recently at Columbia University. While
the process is still in the experimental
stage, .large quantities of vaccines
have been made, and the experiment
continues.
"Spores are not destroyed at the
pressure indicated, but whether this
resistance is due to impermeability of
the membrane to the carbon dioxid, or
to the strength of the heavy walls or
membranes of the spore enabling it to
resist the internal pressure, is not
known. Yeast cells are destroyed with
difficulty, but larger organisms, such
as weevils and eggs found in Hour and
cereals, are easily destroyed, either by
using carbon dioxid, or by a change in
air -pressure."

BRUISES
Why Children Misbehave
Juvenile waywardness is much more
likely the result of parental falls from
grace, bad examples all around the
chidren, lack of sufficient sleep, or
poor environment, or all of them.
The original sin is in the home.
So believes Dr. William Moodie, an
English physician. He was addressing
the Medical Officers of Schools, in Lon-
don, and a report of his address ap-
pears in The Lancet, a London medi-
cal journal.
The commonest causes of complaint
brought to Dr. Moodie's attention in his
clinic were, in order, we read: steal-
ing, nervousness. unmanageableness,
lying, temper, stammering, truancy
and lack of concentration. When the
children were examined, it was ex-
tremely common to find evidence of
fatigue and conditions which in an
adult would certainly be described as
hyperthyroid anxiety states. k wd, we
read:
"Often these arose from en iron -
mental factors—fatigue from lets of
sleep due to ncdsy or overcrowded bed-
rooms, and a txiety from broken
homes, illegitimacy, and marital un-
happiness,
nhappiness, the kind of home where the
child never knew what was going to
happen next.
"Yet there seemed to be a certain
inherent factor as well, since children
in exactly comparable surroundings
might tail to show anxiety symptoms.
Dr. Moodie thinks that he has now col-
lected some cases where it Is abso-
lutely certain that the child can not, in
the ordinary sense of the word, have
known of certain home situations, such
as conditions leading up to a divorce,
and yet it has quite clearly 'sensed'
the position and takes} refuge in some
form of flight.
"He deprecated the va]ue of the in-
telligence quotient alone, but empha-
sized by illustration the tremendous
amount of information that can be ob-
tained by an intelligent psychologist
who makes notes of the child's tem-
perament while putting him through
the ordinary intelligence tests. In this
way, he said, much could be learned
about the child's emotional reactions
without any of that difficult, tedious,
and almost invariably destructive pry-
ing into his mind which is essential if
a temperament estimate is to be made
directly."
