P-•-' What Science Is Doing BRAIN FLUID SLOWS HEART The brain contains a chemical which can slow the heart beat, and lemon peel another that re- duces blood pressure. These dis- coveries were reported last week to the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biol- ogy. The brain chemical seems to be produced continuously in the head, and presumably in the brain itself. It passes along the blood stream and acts directly on the heart. -0- NEW SLEEP DRUG A new sleep -producing drug, oxazoledione, which is safe be- cause an overdose is virtually im- possible, was announced last week to the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biolo- by.

Ancient City Of Salonika Wars, Quakes and Trade Highlight of Greek Port Salonika is described by an an- cient writer as, "The covered city crouching on the side of a hill and touching the sea with her feet," says Ernest D. McCurry iu the Kan- sas City 'Star. "THESSALONICA" This second city of Greece was of little importance until King Cas- sandra of the Macedonian line took possession of it, and renamed it "Thessalonica" in honour of his wife, the daughter of Philip, of Macedon and sister of Alexander the Great. It was called "Salonique" by the French, but the Greeks, in the interest of brevity called it "saloniea" which in modern times has been changed to "Salonika." CITY OP THE AGES This city on the shore of the Aegean Sea is a veritable city of the ages, and so ancient that the time of its beginning is los* in obsourity. It war) the second stopping place of the Apostle Paul, who in re- sponse to a call which had come to him in a night vision, crossed the Aegean Sea and landed in this city. Later from Corinth in 54 A.D., he wrote the first of his many letters to the church which he had found- ed at Thess'aloniea. MODERN SALONIKA The city of Salonika is a modern Babel, not only of languages, but also of races and religions, cus- toms and now German by occupa- tion, its population is predominant- ly Turkish, with the Jews ranking second, and the Greeks themselves a poor third.
