Riders for the
Hoot- Ow
Pool
by G, H. SHARP
CHAPTER THREE
(Continued From Last Week)
"She's afraid they'll kill him.
Some cowboy told her that while
Webb was in jail, somebody tore
his fence down and ruined his hay
crop. They ran off his horses, but
Tex or somebody' picked thein up
again 'and held them for Webb.
There's all sorts of talk going
round in Rimrock about a range
war down yonder. Mae thinks a
lot of Webb, I think she cares as
much for hint as she did for Bob
Anderson, maybe more. It takes a
woman to see things like that in
another woman, And a blind man
can tell that Webb worships her.
Hank, don't let them kill Webb
Winters."
"I won't, Ma, if I can help it.
But Webb has made some almighty
bad enemies and I can't ride herd
on him night and day. I'm goin'
down to look things over. I got
an idea that might work out. Now
don't you worry about me. I'm as
safe as a preacher in church!"
But when he rode ativay into the
crisp early morning, that worried
frown again gathered between his
eyes. He had been hearing all sorts
of rumors from the range. One
rumor that was repeated over and
over was that Webb Winters and
Tex were working the range with
a crew of tough cowboys from the
badlands, and that they were all
carrying saddle guns. They were
working from before daylight until
after dark, gathering beef, branding
what mavericks they could find, rid-
ing hard, and no reps from other
outfits were even allowed to st61)
for a meal.
They had set three Triangle men
afoot, taking their guns, unsad-
dling their horses and turning the
animals loose, They had warned
the three men that if they ever
sighted them off the Triangle range
again, they'd smoke thein up. The
three cowpunchers, carrying their
saddles, had been forced to walk the
20 miles to the Triangle ranch.

Joe Blake and several other mem-
bers of the Scissor -Bill Pool had
riden up about noon time at the
round -up camp. Tex told them to
keep on riding because this outfit
didn't feed anybody but whit,. men,
Tex and Webb called their outfit
the Hoot -Owl Pool. They were
riding top horses. Every man of
them was a fast cowboy in any
man's cow country. They were
cleaning up the range of maverick
as they worked it. They were sev-
eral jumps ahead of the Scissor -
Bill Pool that worked the sante
range. It was claimed that they
made night rides over on the Tri-
angle range and gathered up more
than a few mavericks that right-
fully belonged to Ab Abbot.
Sheriff Hank Roberts had heard
these and many other tales concern-
ing the Hoot-Cfwl Pool, an outfit
boldly named for the men who
ride the hoot -owl outlaw trail. So
it was that, he rode with a worried
mind and grim determination in his
heart. r
* * *
It was after sundown when he
located the Hoot -Owl round -up
camp on Box Elder Creek, He saw
the beef herd grazing on the bed
ground. The remuda was, being
coralled so that time cowboys could
catch their night horses, Mess
wagon and bed wagon were camped
at the edge of the creek and the
cook moved around his open fire
with its Dutch ovens. They had
no tents; beds . were scattered
around on the ground, It was
Webb Winters who rode out to
meet himm.
"I'll have to tell you, Hank," he
said quietly, "that you'll hate to
wait out here 'til after dark, It
ain't that you're not welcome,
understand, but some of the boy
are a little law -shy."
"I reckon 1 savvy. We might go
down in the coulee, Webb, and set
a while, I got some timings to ase:
you.,,
"I reckon I know about what
they. are. You've had a long ride
for nothin'. I'nm not in a talkie'
humor, 1'11 tell you this much
without bein' asked, however. We
arc breakin' no law when we work
this range. You can't lay a hand
on us for what we're Join', The
only thing you can tally up against
us is that we're workin' this range
cleaner and faster than it's ever
been worked, The Scissor -Bill Pool
is havin' big fits and little 'uns, but
it ain't slowin' us down any. Ab
.Abbot's thieves . rode over a few
days -back and walked home like
sheepherders. We got both time
Scissor -Bill and Triangle outfits
out -foxed."
Hank Roberts kept eyeing Webb.
Webb looked older, somehow.
Lean, brown, with a week's growth
of whiskers on his face. His blood-
shot eyes showed his lack of sleep.
And when he grinned, there was a
hint of bitterness at the corners of
his mouth.
"You've bit off an almighty big
mouthful, Webb."
"If I can't chaw it, l won't spit
it out, anyhow."
"You boys are takin' a high-
handed attitude, son. Keep it up
and hell's goin' to pop. I don't
want a range war, and I'll do every-
thing I can to stop it. Another
thing that don't set so good on my
stomach is that you've fetched in
a bunch of .gunmen from some-
where. You shore are doin' your
best to make a fool out of nte."
'That ain't time idea, Hank, These
boys are just helpin' us work our
range. They're not Sunday school
boys, that's a fact, but they're not
skunks like the Triangle pays
fightin' wages to. These omen of
ours are workin' without pay. Tex'
and l haven't money enough to pay
'em 'til after we ship,' mebby not
then. They're ridin' their own
horses, to boot."
• More than one man at the Hoot -
Owl camp must have felt more or
less uneasy in the presence of the
law. Several of the cowboys had
quit camp and had bedded down
for the night in some cut -coulee or
in a spot where the brush was
thick.
It made Ifank Roberts feel un-
comfortable. Tex and Webb were
giving him a cordial enough wel-
come, though he knew that they
would be glad to see him ride away.
But he had not yet finished with

Last week was pretty hectic , ,
all of us at Ginger Farm going full
blast to get everything done that
should be done -but, of course, we
didn't quite manage it, Who does?
However, we are through seeding
-and since we have spent a small
fortune on grass seed, we certainly
hope it will grow. Not that we are
looking for trouble, but rather
counting our blessings these days
because our wheat and alfalfa have
wintered far better than we had
dared to hope for.
During spring seeding, farmers
are always afraid to waste a min-
ute, working long hours to get the
job done, but now the seasons have
become sort of _ topsy-turvey it
makes even more of a rush job than
ever. In our case, tiBob had so
many urgent orders -for trucking
gravel that Partner helped with the
drilling and running ditches -which
he was hardly able to do -so, by
the time we were through, there
was one man and two horses with
tired, lame feet, I don't know
which was limping the most --
Partner or the horses.
Webb Winters. He hadn't turned
up his hole card. I -Ie aimed to
spend the night.
"Ketch me a night horse," he
told Webb, as he ate supper by the
light of the fire; "and I'll stand
guard with yuh, It's been a long
time since I sang to a beef herd,"
The remuda had been taken out
by the nighthawk, but there was
an extra horse or two staked out
for emergencies, In case some
night horse broke loose, there
would be an extra to take its place,
1'Vebb nodded and .grinned,
"I'm oil second guard,. Sheriff.
Glad to have an old-timer go on
with me."
Webb shared his bed with the
sheriff, out there under the stars.
Hank Roberts did not miss the fact
that four men, instead of the custo-
mary two, went on guard. Also one
ratan stood guard at camp. The
Hoot -Owl Pool was taking no
chances of losing their' herd or
being surprised in camp.
At ten o'clock a cowboy shook
Webb. "Guard time, Webb."
Webb and the sheriff rode out
into the star -filled night to there
the herd was bedded. Behind therm
rode two other' men. •
* * *
It was a crisp, still night with a
frosty tang in the air. A half
moon rode above the skyline, Stars
were sparks ,of silver. There was
the pleasant smell of sagebrush.
Somewhere. along the creek cane
the slap of a beaver's tail. And
sounding clear in the night was the
crunch of hooves, the faint creak
of ‘saddle leather, the musical tinkle
of spurs..

My present job is painting the
tipper and lower hall, and the stairs.
It is a big job as there are 11 doors,
all told, but the monotony is con-
siderably relieved by the activities
of the robin I have been telling
you about, Mrs, Robin eventually
got'down to business and laid four
eggs -and what a beautiful color
they were, In due time, there were
three ugly little robins, The fourth
egg, Mrs, Robin evidently decided
wasn't going to hatch, so, after
breaking it with her beak, she took
hold of it and banged it up and
down in the .nest. Whether she fed
little bits of the shell to her babies
1 couldn't tell, but I rather think
that is what happened. As Mother
Robin brooded her - young, Air.
Robin took over the responsibility
of feeding his wife and family, It
was evident Mrs. Robin did not
trust his judgment entirely because
every tid-bit he brought, she sam-
pled it first before passing it on to
her open -beaked family, About
twice a day, she flew off and did
her own hunting, One day when
she was away, there was a terrific
squawking going on and 1 ran to
the door its a hurry, fearing time cat
was out for a kill, But no -I found
not a cat, but three starlings on the
step with the robins flying angrily
around and pecking at the starlings
furiously, But the starlings took
no notice -not until they saw me -
then they took off in a hurry and
did not return.
The baby robins have their eyes
open now; are getting their wing
feathers and don't look quite so
ugly, They also take a lot of feed-
ing so it keeps Mr, and Mrs, -Robin
busy most of the time supplying
their hungry needs. When I \vas
painting the window around their,
nest Mrs, Robin was not in the
least disturbed -just sat there
watching me. But any time Mr,
Robin came over with a juicy worm
in his beak and saw nuc anywhere
around, away he would go, worm
and all, Brave protector! Honestly,
I don't know which has been my
main occupation these last few
days -painting or bird watching;
But each has certainly helped with
the other.
Our spring flowers are now out
in full bloom, but the dallies are
not as good as usual. But there
will be lots of narcissi -and last
year it was the other way around,
so maybe even the daffodils are ob•
jecting to the cold, late spring, Or
it may be that they need lifting
and re -setting. I think it is about
12 years since they were touched,
so no doubt it is a job that needs ..

Well, the Manitoba flood condi-
tions seem to be almost beyond
belief. It is nothing short of heart-
breaking to hear and read of those
poor, dear people being shunted

whether they will ever again see

"home." And if they do, what a

Kate Aitken, who had visited the

bright spot in the picture -the

they are as generous and kind-
hearted as they ever were.

"Dear Anne Hirst: Two years

"I asked his
mother, with whom he lives. She
told me that 'two women in the
same house couldn't agree!'
"I could have got 'along fine with
her, I know old people are lonely,
and I liked her. I helped her
move and sewed for her, , , , But
of course I could not live with her
now. I feel she was trying to get
everything out of me that she
could.
"Why didn't she give us a couple
of roots -or live with her tnarried
daughter for a while? I've been
made the laughing stock of my
family and friends, It has broken
my heart, Even now it is still
affecting my health,
"Shall I stick with this man tilt

TALRSt
..n; iNit. J eine Andpews,
As litany of you know, packaged
dry mixes for biscuits, muffins and
cakes—that is to say mixes to
which only liquid and perhaps an
egg need he added—are becoming
more popular every day, especially
among city dwellers who haven't
the room or facilities for extensive
cookery.
So perhaps you may he interest-
ed to know—as I was—that the
United States Department of Agri-
. culture is advocating "home-made"
dry mixes of various kinds. By
using such mixes, it is saidthat
food values are greatly increased.
In fact, one noted home economist,
comparing biscuits made with the
,tnix with some done according to
standard recipes, found the former
50 per cent. richer in protein and
at least 300 per cent. higher in cal-
cium and riboflavin—both very im-
portant to health.
So first I'm giving you the basic
biscuit mix, together with i+ couple
of suggestions- for its use. It can
also be used for meat -pie toppings
and in countless other different
ways,
* * .--
Basic Biscuit Mix
• 8 Cups sifted enriched flour
1 cup non-fat (skim) dry milk
1/4 cup baking powder
3 teaspoons salt
1 cup fat—any kind not needing
refrigeration,
Method: Sift dry ingredients to-
gether three times. Cut or rub in
fat 'til thoroughly mixed. Lift mix
lightly into glass jars or tin cans
without packing. Close tightly and
store on shelf,
* * *
Biscuits (From Mix)
Method: Add to a cup of the
above mix enough fluid milk (ap-
proximately one-third cup) to stake
a soft dough. Knead, cut and bake
as usual, Yield: Six biscuits.
*
* *
Meat -Vegetable Twists (from Mix)
Method: Prepare enough biscuit
batter for about 12 biscuits (use
two cups of mix), Turn cut on a
lightly floured board and knead
gently a half minute, Roll out to a
quarter -inch in', thickness, Cut indi-
vidual biscuits of 3x4 inches,
Put a half -cup meat -vegetable
filling on ,one-half of the biscuit.
On the other half, cut quarter -inch
strips from edge of dough toward
filling, using knife or pastry wheel.
Fold these strips over meat mix-
ture, twisting strips across meat.
Pinch strip. to edge of meat -covered
laugh,
.Put individual twists on baking
sheet and bake at 375° F. for 25
to 30 minutes, Yield; Six servings
of two biscuits each. For tilling, use
any well -seasoned combination of
ground cooked meat and cooked
vegetables, held together with me-
dium white sauce,
The muffin mix, which comes
from the sante source, produces
muffins that are cdnsiderably super-
ior in protein and calcium to those
baked according to most standard
recipes, This mix may be used, as
well, for waffles and . griddle cakes.
Basic Muffin Mix
6 cups sifted enriched flour
1 cup dry non-fat (skim) milk
34 cup baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
14 cup sugar
/ cup fat—any kind not needing
refrigeration.
Method: Sift dry ingredients to-
gether three times. Cut ,or rub in
fat 'til thoroughly Mixed. lift mix
1 ghtly into glass jars or tins with-
out packing. Close tightly and
*store on shelf.
* * * a
Muffins (From Mix)
Method; Use a third cup of milk
and a beaten egg to one cup above
mix for five small nnnffins. Mix and
bake as usual. For "meat ntutTins"
stir into hatter a little chopped
:alaini, hard -cooked egg and dash
of horseradish,
* * . *
Waffles (From Mix)
Method; Use three-quarters cup
of milk and one beaten egg to one
cup above mix for two big waffles.
Mix; bake as usual,
* * *
Griddle Cakes (From Mb:)
Method: Usc two-thirds to one
cup milk and a beaten egg to one
cup above nt;x for six or seven
pancakes. \I ix and bake as usual.
* * * •
Now, to conclude, here's a recipe
that doesn't use any prepared
"mixes," but which does stake use
—and in a very delightful way—of
what old Bishop Boteler said was
viuloubtedly the finest berry God
ever made. Whether you fully
agree with the good bishop's state-
ment or not, I'm sure you'll like
this:
Strawberry Cake
lig cups sifted pastry flour, or
1/ cups sifted hard -wheat flour
2 tsps, Magic Baking Powder
cup cold water
1/ tsps. vanilla
/ tsp. salt
4 eggs, separated
1 cup fine granulated sugar,
Method: Sit flour, baking powder
and salt together three times. Beat
egg yolks thick and light; gradually
beat in the cold water and % cup
of the sugar; beat constantly fqr
four minutes. Beat egg whites
until stiff, but not dry; gradually
beat in remaining th cup sugar,
beating after each addition until
mixture stands in peaks. Add flour
mixture to yolk mixture about a
quarter at a time, folding lightly
after each addition just until flour
is incorporated; fold in vanilla. Add
meringue to yolk mixture and fold
gently until combined. Turn into
two ungreased 8 -inch round cake
pans. Bake in moderate oven, 350°,
25 to 30 minutes. Inmmediately, the
cakes are Naked, invert pans and
allow cakes to hang, suspended,
until cold (to "hang" cakes, rest
rim of inverted pan on three in-
verted egg cups or coffee cups).
Put, cold cakes together with sweet-
ened, crushed strawberries; top
with lightly sweetened and flavored
whipped creast and garnish with
whole strawberries,

�rY 4,:i:- . LESSON
By Rev, R. B. Warren, B.A., B,D,
Habakkuk Teaches Trust In God
Habakkuk 1:1-4, 12, 13; 2:1-4;
3:17-19.
Golden .Text:— Vet 1 will rejoice
in the Lord, I will joy in the t hod
of my salvation.—Habakkuk 3:18,
The Chaldean kingdom had be-
come the dominating power in the
world when Habakkuk uttered his
prophecy. He was perplexed, \V by
was there so much injustice in the
world? Why were the wicked per-
, mitted to catch the righteous in
their net and devour then:? \Vhy
didn't God do something about it?
\lany of us have asked the sante
question.
God enlarged the vision of hla-
bakkuk. He saw that "The just
shall live by faith," and God will
ultimately execute judgment in the
earth. "The earth shall lye filled with
the knowledge of the glory of the
Lord, as the' waters over the sea."
Meanwhile, woes are pronounced
upon the wicked, Woe to hint that
coveteth with an evil covetousness
—woe unto hits that giveth his
neighbor drink, that puttest thy
bottle to him, and makest hint
drunken also, that thou mayest look
on their nakedness," God will per-
mit no evil' which He can wisely
prevent, But man is free to choose
whether or not he will obey God.
Habakkuk say something of the
greatness of God, "His glory cov-
ered the heavens, and the earth was
full of 1 -lis praise," He teas then
content to live by faith in the ser-
vice of such a Great One, No mat-
ter how fearful are the circumstances
he will rejoice, Let the faith ex-
pressed in his conclusion be ours,
too. "Although , the lig tree shall
not blossom, neither shall fruit be
in the vines; the labour of the olive
shall fail, and the fields shall yield
no :neat; the flock shall be cut off
from the fold, and there shall be no
herd in the stalls; yet I will rejoice
in the Lord, I will joy in the God
of my salvation,"
Wonder Fruit
Of The Tropics
Coconuts will play a large part
in supplying the 100,000 tons of
vegetable oil which Britain needs
so badly this year, At the sante
time, plantation owners t,tancd to
reap considerable financial reward:
The price of copra (the dried
kernel of the nut) has rocketed
from the pre-war figure of $60 to
$350 a ton.
Fortunately, coconuts are easy to
cultivate. They flourish along the
coasts of tropical islands, including
the smallest coral islets.
'rhe reason for their abundance
is not difficult to find. As the nuts
ripen they drop off, and many in-
evitablyf roll into the sea. Their
fibrous busks and leathery skins
render them seaworthy, and the
tide and currents carry then: across
the ocean and cast then: up on dis-
tant shores, where they soon take
root.
It takes from seven to eight years
for the patens to attain full matu-
rity and bear fruit. Then they
produce four crops annually for
some seventy years.
A thousand coconuts give ap-
p-oximately 500 lb. of copra, from
which twenty-five gallons of oil can
be obtained. This oil is. chiefly used
in .the manufacture of margarine,
soap, and cattle food. Tasty con-
fectionery can also be made from
it.
To the natives of the islands on
which they grow the coconut palm
is a universal provider, Its tall,
slender trunk is used in the building
of their homes. The' broad leaves
are used for roofing.
The white flesh of the nut itself
is used as food, while the sweet
juice it holds is drunk. The fibres
which cover the nut are weaved
into stats. Nothing is wasted.

Scots To Raise
Reindeer For Meat
It is interesting to learn that a
plan is under consideration by the
Department of Agriculture in Scot-
land to introduce reindeer into the
Highlands. Reindeer meat is said
to be more tender, less dry than
venison.
The plan has been put forward
by Mr. Mikel Utsi, owner of large
herds in North Sweden, Mr, Utsi
has found that crofters whom he
has approached welcome his plan.
He is ready to provide an Initial
herd of 25 animals. He would pay
for their transport and look after
therm himself, and would train croft-
ers to do the herding during a trial
period. And he would pay the rent
for suitable pasturage,
The Department of Agriculture
for Scotland is considering the pos-
sibility of a trial herd on one of *tli
islands off the Scottish coast. There
the animals could be studied at
dose range, and the likelihood of
disease investigated. But there has
been no disease among the vast
Scandinavian herds for, over fifty
years.
When the trial herd has under-
gone such a period of_quarantine,
the department might consider the
further possibility of establishing a
herd in some remote part of the
mainland where there would be no
interference with the maintenance
of cattle and sheep, or even red
deer.
In any event, reindeer live chiefly
on lichens, which arc to be found
among heather stalks, Mr. Utsi has
discovered what the herdsmen call
"reindeer moss" among potentially
suitable areas which he has visited
--especially in large tracts of Suth•
erland and Cairngorms, Indeed, it
is pointed out that reindeer could
thrive in districts at present valued
only as of interest for tourists.
Undoubtedly there would be a
ready market, too, for the tildes. Up
to the outbreak of tvar, reindeer
skins of quality—for the manufac-
ture of gloves and handbags—were
brought from Alaska, being prod•
acts of the offspring of herds orig-
inally imported front Scandinavia,
The animal can maintain a speed
of nine or 10 utiles an hour for a
long time, and can easily draw a
weight of 200 pounds besides a sled,
Almost every part of a dead animal
is used in some way.
Actually, the import of reindeer
into Great Britain would be a return
home.
Reindeer roamed the forests of
Scotland up to the twelfth century,
And it was the destruction of these
forests by fire that presunnably pre-
vented reindeer from being still as
touch at home in the highlands of
Scotland as in Scandinavia.
Other Women Found
These Hints .Useful
Instead of planting our window
boxes each summer season, we,
simply set potted flowers into then.
These can be easily 'shifted when
they stop blooming and other blos-
soming plants set into their places.
We enjoy the continual color this
gives our home.

I find the pilot light in my oven
is useful for a number of things.
I set my bread in the oven to rise
and the pilot keeps it just the right
temperature, even in the coldest
weather, When crackers or potato
chips become limp, I put them into
the overt overnight and the next day
they are peppy and fresh for serv-
ing. I also dry corn, apples,
peaches, pears, and aprocots inl the
oven by using only the pilot light.

the water gets low, they will bounce
about noisily', warning you that it
needs refilling, This idea has
lengthened the life of my double
boiler, to say nothing of saving my
temper, time, and food.

1 save extra housework steps
with my large -pocket cleaning
apron. When I find a small article
out of place or needing repair,
1 tuck it into the right-hand pocket.
Odd papers, threads, and scraps to
be thrown away are put into the .
left pocket for emptying when I
pass a handy waste -basket. The
misplaced items are restored to
their proper places when I reach
then: during cleaning.

Tine was when my husband
came in from the day's work with
his trouser cuffs full of seeds and
bits of straw and dirt which clung
to .the carpet as he walked. I
solved this extra cleaning problem
by stitching all work -clothes cuffs
with the sewing machine.

Make a handy barber -pole con-
tainer for used razor blades by
enamelling a condensed milk can
with red and white candy stripes.
Cut a slot in one end large enough
for blades to slip through. Keep
this on the bathroom shelf with the
shaving ,materials.

Slipping seldom -used dishes into
paper qr plastic bags, when you
store them, will protect thein from
gathering dust.

A wastebasket is right by , the
kitchen sink where I need it, thanks
to this easy idea. Without any
complicated carpentry work, I at-
tached an oval metal basket to
the door of the cupboard beneath
the sink. I punched two holes
about 5 inches apart, just below
the rolled rim. Then, holding the
basket against the door, I marked
through the holes -and inserted two
cup hooks on the dots made. With
the hooks opened a little so that
the basket can lift on and off easily,
it was ready for handy use.
* * *
To keep the knobs on cupboards
and dresser drawers front working
loose, use washers of title sand-
paper, Cut the washer to fit knob,
sake a hole it the middle of the
washer, and slip it over the bolt
or screw between knob and drawer.
Put the abrasive side next to
drawer. Thep, when the nut is tight-
ened, the knob will not work loose,

My children have as much fun
picking up their "clutter" as they
had scattering it in the first place.

THUMB
A Bun For Your Money
One can grow an amazing lot of
vegetables in even a tiny plot of
ground. A .vegetable garden 10
feet by 20, with a little planning
and double cropping, will yield
many meals. In the very stnafl
vegetable garden one is wise to
forget those bulky or spreading
sort of things like potatoes, corn,
squash, or pease. One should con,
centrate on • beans, carrots, beets,
spinach, radish, lettuce, possibly a
half-dozen staked tomatoes and per-
haps a _hill or two of cucumbers
trained over the boundary fence.
None of these vegetables can take
up much room. Brans, beets and
carrots, for instance, can be grown
in rows only a foot apart, and 10
feet of any of them will produce
many meals for the average family.
With some of the very early things
like lettuce, radish and spinach
double cropping can be practised.
Plant these in rows, say, 18 inches
apart, with rows of the later things
—beets, beans, carrots, parsnips,
etc.,—in between.
* _ * *
Building'lip A Garden
There are few soils or locations
in Canada where a garden is not
possible, Even if the soil is very
heavy, wet, sticky clay and as flat
as a pancake, with a little patience
and planning it can be turned into
a fair garden. It may be necessary
and profitable to have it tile -drained
so that it will get rid of surface
water quickly. In most cases a few
open drains, or merely a furrow or
two, ,will be sufficient. Both heavy
and very light soil too 'will be
vastly improved by digging or plow-
ing in manure and green materials
like a cover crop of oats, peas, rye,
clover, etc. Even a good crop of
weeds will help if dug under. All
waste matter like pea pods, carrot
tops, corn stalks, etc., should be
saved and dug in or piled up just
in a compost heap to rot and then
spread over the garden. The rotted
vegetables refuse dug in adds what
is technically known as humus,
puts some body into the soil so
it will hold moisture better.
* ** *
Paths and Driveways -
A winding path adds interest to
any garden, even where it may not
be absolutely necessary. But it
should not be too obvious, and if
one wtants a curve or two then
there should be some excuse for
that curve, such as a tree or group
of shrubbery. \Vhat the path will
be made of wilt depend. upon how
much traffic and what materials
are available, Good firm sod will
take some wear and if dry will
even carry a car, For more per-
manent results and heavier traffic,
flag stones, bricks, crushed cinders
or well packed gravel are all suit-
able. Where these act as drive-
ways as well and carry heavy traf-
fic some foundation and drainage
are advisable. Coarse gravel or
cinders or crushed stone will do
very well.
To keep down weeds in drive-
ways there are many good weed
killers on the market. To lay the
dust common salt and old car oil
can be used and they have the
additionad advantages of binding
time gravel or cinder and discourag-
ing. frost,
WHEN A MOTORIST returned
to his car after reporting that it
was stalled on a highway near
Muskegon, Mich., ' he discovered
that thieves had removed a can of

chains, a tow rope, a lantern, a
tool -box, a pair of driving gloves,
two auto robes, the heater, a pint of
brake fluid, two sldeview mirrors,

just how smart are you with live-
tltock remedies? is the question put
to farmers in a recent issue of "Suc-
cessful Farming" by Dr. J, W.
Bailey, a veterinarian, who goes on
to say that if the hone -applied
medicines do what they are sup-
posed to do for a sick animal, little
or nothing is ever heard of the
matter.
* * *
"But let one fail, and the owner
grumbles, If, as sometimes hap-
pens, the medicine makes . ;n condi,
tion worse or even causes death, a
howl often goes up that can be
heard clear across the county.
However, the medicine is seldom
to blame so much as the man who
treats the animal, This is because
most of our best remedies are also
poisons and capable of doing real
damage if improperly used,"
* * *
Consider what happened to some
steers in Texas,
Solutions containing 1 per cent
of white arsenic once were used as
dips for killing skin parasites such
as mange mites and Tice on large
animals. Even when used in the
1 -per -cent strength, such dips are
mighty dangerous concoctions.
It is not surprising, then, that a
2 -per -cent solution caused the death
of 200 cattle after they were dipped
in it. Enough arsenic was absorb-
ed through the skins of the soaked
animals to kill them, so the double -
strength idea didn't work out so
well in this instance, at least.
* * *
Numerous owners have discover-
ed too late that even ordinary stock
salt is poisonous when used in
overlarge amounts. It' is one of
the old reliable home remedies for
bloat in cattle, but our friend who
used 6 pounds of it in a drench
learned that such amounts can kill
cows. At least his patient died.
* * :
The same danger exists in the
case of seemingly harmless baking
soda. This is because this old kit-
chen standby is a mild caustic. We
have the word of a top-notch farmer
for the story that he killed a bloated
calf by giving it a pound of the
compound.
• * *
Copper sulphat killed some horses
:when the owner thought that it was
the same thing as "copperas" and
it has caused plenty of live
stock deaths in other ways. There
is no question about its being pois-
onous, and most people fully realize
the danger. But it still is given
often in more than one per cent.
solution recommended for internal
use on animafs. Not so long ago,
we saw a bunch of dead sheep that
had been killed by the,use of a 10
per cent, copper sulphate solation at
worming time.
* * *
This matter of overstrong solu-
tions often causes serious trouble
when other compounds are involv-
ed, too. Such old reliables as lysol,
creolin, turpentine, chloral hydrate,
carbon tetrachloride, tetrachloro-
ethylene, and many others are cap-
able of causing severe burns of the
skin or mouth unless they are prop-
erly diluted.
* * *
We still remember the man who
drenched a bloated cow with raw
turpentine and practically burned
• the whole mouth and throat out of
the poor beast, We saw the same
thing happen after an owner gave
full-strength creolin to several cows
that had winter dysentery. Every
once in a while, we see similar re-
sults following the giving of chloral
hydrate crystals for acetonemia in
milk cows.
* * *
Few winters go by without some
horses seriously injured through
"botting" with carbon tetrachloride
or tetrachloroethylene, Such injury
occurs when the animals break cap-
sules between their teeth and free
'the terribly strong drugs in their
sensitive mouths.
All Colors To The Mast -An ingenious ship "Europe" flying
the flags of all Marshall Plan nations is the central figure in
this winning poster in an Intra -European poster contest sport-
cored by the Economic Co-operation Administration, Rcijn
Dirksen, 25 -year-old Dutch artist, won $1500 first prize for the
poster, one of more than 10,000 entered in the contest.
Many of the newer drugs are also
dangerous when used improperly or
in • the wrong dosages. \'1e have
seen several costly examples of the
misuse of sodium fluoride,
* * *
This drug is supposed to be fed
as one per cent, of one day's dry
grain ration for the removal of
worms from pigs, Farmers arc re-
peatedly cautioned against using it
in wet feeds, but every so often, it
is mixed with slop, and some pigs
are poisoned as a result, This hap-
pens because the fluoride settles to
the bottom of such mixtures, and
the last of the slop consequently
contains most of the poisonous
drug. The unfortunate porkers
that get these dregs are seldom
around to go to market with the
rest of the pigs because they soon
die.
* * *
Deaths also may result if the feed
contains 10 per cent, or 15 per cent.
or more, instead of the recommend-
ed one per cent, After all, fluorine is
as much of a deadly poison as its
sinister elements, iodine and
chlorine.
* * *
Even the many different highly
publicized sulfa drugs can cause
trouble if not given in carefully
estimated doses over short periods
of time, Such overdosing lowers
natural resistance through decreas-
ing the normal number of white
blood cells in the body, and the
collection of sulfa crystals in the
kidneys does irreparable damage,
So,the calf that died in spite of "all
the sulfas we put in" may have
died because of the drugs and not
because of their failure to control
disease.
* * *
Other examples might well be
cited, but the foregoing will give
you an idea of how mishaps may
occasionally be associated with
medicines. Accident sometimes hap -
medicines. Accidents sometimes
happen even when the most careful
and best veterinarian is treating an
animal. Therefore, it is reasonable
to assume that mishaps will occur
a lot oftener when skilled help is
not available. If and when they
do, maybe the medicines won't be
to blame at all, so watch your step
when using them.

In Historic Passion Play -Here are the leading characters in
the traditional Passion Play being staged for the first time in
16 years at the mountain village of Oberammergau, Germany.
Anton Preisinger, left, beer parlor owner and`an admitted for-
mer Nazi Party member, plays the role of Jesus Christ. Hans
Schwaighofer, right, a teacher at Oberammergau's well-known
wood -carving school, plays the role of Judas. Political bitterness
hick accompanied last year's casting of the play has been
forgotten, villagers say.

Practically every kid who goes
in for football, hockey or base-
ball does so with at least a tiny
idea in the back of his taint' of
some day being a star in big
league tlrcles. So you would think
that at least a reasonable t'ereent-
age of them would try and con*
centrate on the surest way of ach-
ieving such stardom; yet, with
very few exceptions, they all try
to do it the hard way,
* * *
Take football, fqr example, For -
w and passers, and pass receivers
of reasonable ability are a dime a
dozen; line plungers and end run-
ners are by no means scarce; but a
punter who can get height ,and
distancf, with or against the wind,
is a pearl of great price -a prize
that any manager or coach will
scramble for, Yet - as we have
written before -for every dozen
boys you see practising forward
passing and catching, there won't
he a single one trying to learn the
rudiments of really hooting the
bladder,
* * *
Much the same thing goes its
'hockey, Just how touch a poten-
tial young Turk Broda or Bill
Duman would be worth on the
hoof today it is impossible to say
with any exactness -but it would
be plenty, you may be sure- en-
ough to pay for half a dozen pros-
pective forwards or defensemen.
Yet anybody who has ever had
any experience of trying to or-
ganize a kids' hockey team ,knows
that one of the hardest things to
do -outside of digging up money
for equipment -is to get some boy
to don the big pads and stand be-
tween the pipes. As Jimnty Durante
put it "they all want to get nto
the act"; and the act, to theta, is
scoring goals, not stopping then,
* * *
In baseball, it's catchers who are
rare, "Good catchers are worth
their weight in gold," was a re-
cent remark of Eddie Dyer, a man
who should know what he's talk•
ing about. Yet the kids today scent
to want anything else its baseball
rather than a berth behind home
plate -or if they do .decide to
catch, it isn't the value they can
be to their pitchers that occupies
their minds. "All a young catcher
ever thinks of now," moaned Cy
Perkins not so long ago, ."is bit-
ting the ball over the fence. He
worries about his hits, not his
pitcher,"
* * *
Now all this is not just the wail-
ing of a has-been who thinks that
nothing in sport today is as good
as it was a generation or so ago.
For example, just take a look at
the list of catchers who were hold-
ing sway in the two major leagues
back in 1930. There were Mickey
Cochrane, Bill Dickey, Shanty
Hogan, Gabby Hartnett, Jimmy
Wilson'
Al Spohrer, Spud Davis
and Al Lopez.
* * *
All of that lot, besides know-
ing the tricks of the catching trade,
were clouting at a rate of .300
or better. Not quite so good in the
hitting department but still much
better than 'run -of -the -mine re-
ceivers were the likes of Muddy
Ruel, Luke Sewell, Rick Ferrell,
Benny Bengough, Cy Perkins,
Rollie Hensley, Zach Taylor, Bob
O'Farrell and Gus Mancuso.
*.* *
After twenty years the names
of each and every one of those
catchers is still vivid in the mem-
•ory of most fans'whose baseball
recollections go back that far, flow
many of those operating behind the
Iron Mask these days will be re-
called by the baseball bugs of 1970?
Mighty few, in our opinion, nor
are we by any means alone in
such a belief,
* * *
"So desperate are teams for cap-
able catchers," writes Arthur Daley
in The Sunday Times, "that the
'Boston Braves reached all the way
down to a Class B league in mid-
season 'last year to bring up a
19 -year-old kid, Dell Crandall, and
install hint as a regular. Imme-
diately the big youngster was hail-
ed as another Gabby Hartnett in
the making; yet it should be noted
that Billy Southworth recently
grabbed frantically for aging •
Walker Cooper as catching in-
surance."
* * *
Mr, Daley goes on to ask how
ninny real, authentic stars there are
catching right now -and when he
tries to answer, the list is strik-
ingly short, 'There is- Roy Cam-
panella, of the Dodgers, a superb
receiver and fine hitter; Yogi Berra
of the Yankees, not as good as he
may be some day, but still stand -
cut as things go now; Birdie Tel).
Netts, of the Red Sox, whose best
days are probably past; and -after
those three, not much else,
* * *
There have been many great
catchers in the past half century,
hut their greatness was attained
withetheir gloves rather than their
bats, Only three long -terns catchers
had lifetime batting averages of
over ,300 -Mickey Cochrane, Bill
Dickey and Ernie Lombardi. Al-
though the record book shows the
names of 87 players who male
more than two thousand hits in the
majors, NOT ONE OF TI-IEM
WAS A CATCHER, "Yet the
Patties of so litany great ones,"
says Mr, Daley, "ripple off the
'tongue - Johnny Kling, Jinuny
Archer, Gabby Street, Ray Schalk,
Bill Carrigan, Billy Sullivan, Steve
O'Neill anti -well, it could be an
almost endless roll, especially if
you were to toss in those already
mentioned."
* * *
The glamour, the appla'lse, and
the over -stuffed salaries in base-
ball go, of course, to the Joe Di=
Maggio's, the Ted Williams's, the
Babe Ruth's -the lads that' can
clout tltenl clear out of the ,park,
And when a kid reads about Wil-
liams dragging down something
around $125,000 per season, it's
pretty hard to convince hint that
he would be giving himself a far
better chance by concentrating on
catching rather than slugging,
* * *
• Yet, great attraction that he is,
if the Boston Red Sox were to
offer Ted Williams in a trade, even
Stephen, for Roy Campanella, do
you think the Brooklyn Dodgers
would break any speed records
making the deal? We personally be-
lieve that the Dodgers would say
they're quite satisfied with what
they have, For Branch Rickey
knows that, while a Ted Williams
can snake an overflow crowd, a Roy
Campanella can make a ball team -
which is why we continue to tell
all the kids we are acquainted with
-"If you really want a baseball
career, get back there in the dust
and dirt, and try to learn to catch!"

"\VIiy does the young elan sit so

"1 f e is blind," explained the
father, and related the story.
"1 know how to help hint," volun-

flowers of elderberry. Putt them

over them. \Vhen cool, squirt the
water into his eyes three times a

The father was dubious, for sur-
geons held no Hope for his son,
However, the treatment was tried
till the son complained that the
lotion made his eyes smart.
Months later the gipsy called
and inquired after the young man,
'l'he fatlier explained what had hap-
pened. , "But that," 'insisted the
gipsy, "is a sign that the inflam-
mation is being drawn out." So
they persevered.
Gradually the son began to sec,

In India there were even better
mathematicians than either in
ancient Egypt or Greece. They
designed the great stone pagoda
of 'Tanjore, nine hundred years
ago. It is an immense pillar -like

Many modern ideas are not as
new as we imagine. In 1943 it
was announced in triumph that
"refrigeration is being used In a
new shockless, drugless, almost
bloodless surgery, Ice numbs the
nerves that carry the reaction of a
wound to the brain and helps to
prevent shock, which is one of the
chief dangers of an operation, Also,
as bacteria are living creatures,
cold inhibits their growth and
spread through an infected wound."
If we turn back the clock many
centuries, we find Ilippocrates, the
Father of Medicine, was using ice
and snow to 1111111/) limbs before
operating!
Since the first world war, plaster
of Paris has been widely used
for the immobilization' of broken
bones. It was hailed as something
entirely new. But the aborigines
of South Australia, the oldest
living members of the human race,
have encased broken limbs in clay
for centuries, Another innovation
is the use of tiny clips ii read of
stitches for holding together the
edges of wounds. But explorers
tell us that South American Indians
do the sante thing in a different
way,
They collect 'large ants with
powerful,'jaws.. Then they press
the edges of the wound together
and place ants on ,it. These
insects clip their strong Jews into
the edges of the wound, effec-
tively closing it, after which the
"surgeon" cuts off the bodies of
the ants.
Scientists at Cambridge are now

a sound foundation. Much old lore
has been preserved by gipsles,
-Recently, a young soldier blinded

Blackleg is a terrible cattle dis-
ease, But the Irish had a way of
immunizing their cattle. They cut
off the leg of a cow that died of
blackleg and hung it for a month
+ aver a peat fire, Then they cut
off strips and inserted them under
the skins of healthy animals—pre-
suniably without knowing w•liy,
Scientists who investigated the
custom soon realized that this was
merely a crude way of placing the
pore culture of blackleg germs in
a chloroformed atmosphere, and
then injecting them into healthy
animals, '
The Romans bored wells to great

They made glass that bent, but

We know that swords made in
Damascus could sever a hair. float-
ing in air, Whether science will be
able to investigate the formula by
which they were made is doubtful.
There are many such things we
should like to know. Professor
Lindner discovered that in the days
of Nebucadnczzar the Babylonians
possessed a secret for making solid
beer, called saviq, which they car-
ried on long journeys, All they
had to do' was to drop a brick of
saviq into water; when it dissolved,
the result was beer.

by, the, National Bureau of Standards
and which; though only sixinches

fluid instantly solidifies so that the
two cylinders are held tightly to-

is transmitted to the other. The
clutch is still in the experimental
stage.

of the Research Centre Group, Writ-
ing In a recent issue of TitBlts he
makes the following predictions,
\law's conquest of space, inler-
planetary travel, and the commercial
exploitation of the vast mineral re-
sources believed to be waiting on
the surface of the moon, arc among
the glittering prizes held out by
modern scientists if—and only 11--
tlie nations of the worn abandon
their dreams of subjugating a few
paltry thousand miles of each other's
territory and turn instead to the
far greater challenge of the solar
system,
Even since Jules Verne envisaged
travellers being fired in a shell
to the moon, and 11, G, Wells con-
ceived his gravity -resisting material
called .favorite, the idea of visiting
the moon has captured the Iinagida-
tion of mankind, Now it seems to be
in sight of fulfilment, Experts be.
lieve that a guided rocket, equipped
with robot observers, will snake the
first tour round the moon and back
again within the next seven years.
Once that has been done, and the
recorded data has been analyzed, the
way will be wide 'open for the most
dramatic voyage of discovery in the
world's history—the launching of a
giant rocket -propelled spacecraft
which will convey a human passen-
ger to the moon and back.
The blue -prints for such a space-
craft arc already in existence, pre-
pared on similar line by both Brit-
. ish and American scientists, Their
translation Into the first actual Ma-
chine will begin only when the gov-
ernment of one of the great powers
decides to allocate the necessary
410,000,000.
That estimate, huge as it Is, as-
sures that most of the component
parts would be . obtainable from
existing factories, . If they had ,to.
.be specially built, the cost would be
as .high- as ,that of producing the
first atont'bonb, and a, similar vast
plant would be.needed,
Not unnaturally, . the Germans
were first in the field with research.
Thea Von Harbou's fatuous filet
"The Girl in the Moon," shown in
England in the late 1902s, was based
on the work of the German Rocket
Society, who later perfected the V.1
and V-2 for their assault on Britain,
That Society has recently been re-
formed and, in addition to the Brit
ish Interplanetary Society, there are
a number of Rocket Societies In the
U.S.A.
A .typical blue -print for a space-
craft
pacecraft designed to take a crew of
two to the moon and back shows
a seven -stage, rocket powered by
liquid fluorine, hj'drapfne and other
fuels, and fitted with ejection tylia-
ders to citable the seven parts to'be
jettisoned one after another during
the Journey. It is 352 feet long,
seventy-four feet round, and weighs
over 19,000 tons. In its nose is the
return vehicle, a supersonic glider
weighing no more than' ten tons—a
mere twenty-five feet long with a
wingspan of fifteen feet.
The reason for this fantastic con-
trast in size between lie two craft
Is that, until we can devise some
simpler and less expensive tnethod

of shaking free of the earth's grav-
ity, an enormous amount of force is
needed to start the rocket on its
journey, On the return trip the trav-
ellers will have the earth's gravity
to assist than.
And what of the physical effects
on the first moon -travellers, of being
ejected at 360 m.p.h. on a journey of
240,000 miles?
Unless the strain of acceleration .
when the rocket is launched' can be
offset by the use of inflated cush-
ioning inside the cabin and the use
of drugs, they would almost cer-
tainly "black out" for perhaps the
first three hours. They would be
entirely dependent on the pressure
apparatus and humidifiers to supply
then with compressed air.
They might encounter the danger-
ous effects of cosmic rays beating
on to the rocket with no external
atmosphere to cushion then.
Once clear of the ;earth's sur-
rounding atmosphere, at a height .
of fifty miles, they would be flying
through perpetual night Iu which
the sun, lacking any atmosphere to
diffuse its rays ,Is no brighter than
a large star and daylight ceases to
exist. Just what effect on the Heart,
digestive organs and other bodily
functions the falling off of the
gravitational force of the earth
would have, nobody yet knows,
Assuming, however that the ex-
plorers succeeded in landing on that
barren satellite, they would be more
dependent upon their own resources
than any two living creatures have
even been in history.
Wearing their electrically -heated
suits, never without their portable
oxygen supply and air -Compressors,
they would hrvc to go to work to
bund some forst of shelter and grow
atmosphere -producing plants before
any serious study of metal and min-
eral resources could' be undertaken,
The hazards are incalculable but
not, I ata convinced, beyond tnan's
ingenuity to overcome. And once
the outside edge, of the earth's at-
mosphere fringe has been penetrat-
• ed, still further journeys, of 240
days each, to Mars and Venus will
be planned,
One not -far -distant day the world
will wait, tense with excitement
aroyntd its raidio sets and television
screens, for news of the first two
moon explorers.. Despite the dan-
gers, such is the pioneer spirit of
man that every Rocket Society has
already the names of thousands of
volunteers whose ambition in life
is .to take the first step in man's
conquest of space.
BIG METEORITE
Queer Lawsuits
A claim for $25,000 which grew
out of the complaint of a plan about
the small amount of ice .cream he
got in a cone recently came before
an American court. The man
thought he hadn't had his money's
worth, and said so. . •
The ice cream seller sued hien for
disorderly conduct and the man was
fined $10, whereupon the seller him-
self , was sued for $25,000 on the
grounds that the dissatisfied custo•
mer suffered a recurrence of heart
trouble and damage to his reputa-
tion through the incident.
He capped this claim with an-
other one for an additional $7,500
for mental anxiety caused by riding
in a police van, Toss of earnings,
and medical expenses.
Some claim—some cone!
People sue other people for extra-
ordinary reasons, and sometimes
judgment is given in their favor.
There is a case on record in which
au American jury, trying a man for
grand larceny, was sent to a hotel
to spend the night. Next morning
they returned to court and found
the man guilty. Two days later,
the court received a bill from the
hotel for a long list of articles stolen
by the jury!
A settlement for an undisclosed
amount was announced at Stafford
Assizes in an action by a miner who
was struck on the head by e. cricket
ball hit for six on a cricket club
ground,
The defence stated that the plain-
tiff was bit on the head in a public
road by a cricket ball "which was
most n►agnificently bit for six and
cleared tither one or two pavilions,
according to which side of evidence
you accept, Defendants feel he suf-
fered great misfortune and are glad
to snake amends."
Not long ago, a sensation was
caused by a case in which a man
who stepped off the curb into the
road without looking was ordered to
pay $9,000 damages for causing the
death of a pillion rider, In giving
judgment, the judge said that be
thought When the pedestrian step-
ped off the pavenient his mind was
on something else, and he did what
people often do when hooted at—
he did not stop, look and listen—but
hesitated and then went on.
The pedestrian was in the wrong
and there was no negligence proved
against the motor -cyclist.
A few hundred years ago, it was
quite in order to sue animals and
insects. Complicated laws gov-
erned the misdoings of such wild
creatures as rats, locusts and cater-
pillars on the assumption that, as
God cursed, the serpent and Christ
the fig -tree, so the Church had legal
jurisdiction over both the animate
and inanimate in the entire field of
nature.
In 1445, for instance, a crop -
eating beetle was sued and a lawsuit
started which was to last for 42
years. The plaintiffs, the Commune
of St. Julien in France, finally
agreed to give up part of a fertile
district to the exclusive use of the
insects,
Australia's half -mile -wide Wolf
Creek Crater was blasted out by a
meterorite, Dr, Edward P, Hen-
derson told the Geological Society
at .its last meeting, The big hole
was found In 1947 in the Western
Australia wilderness by .three Am•
etican geologists who were pros -
peeling for oil by plane. The crater
has a diameter of 2,800 feet at the
bottom and a depth of 150 feet. The
meteor that made the crater is the
second largest that ever hit the
earth. The biggest struck in Ari-
zona.
SKIING IS DANGEROUS
FOR BEGINNERS.
"William" Drops
To Seventh Place
The favorite boy's name for
babies born last year was John.
Favorite girl's name Was Ann or
Anne.
Order of popularity is officially
given as follows for boys: John,
Richard, Peter, David, Charles,
Michael, William, Robert, Christ-
opher, James.
For girls: Ann or Anne, Mary,
Elizabeth!, Jane, Susan, Margaret,
Sarah, Caroline, Jennifer, Frances.
William And Mary
Richard climbed from fifth place
in 1948 to second in 1949, while
Tony (Anthony') fell almost to the
bottom of the list. Among the girls,
the first six were the same last
year as in 1948.
Mary is always within the first
three places. From the very earliest
tinges the word has held sway as the
commonest female name, iv, doubt
because of the Christian reverence,.
paid to the Mother of Jesus.
The drop to seventh pace of
William is remarkable, for thtougn-
out the centuries, this flame has tied
with John more than any other in
popularity.
There is a marked tendency in
the U.S.A. for parents to name
their children "Duke," "King,"
"Prince," "Earl," "Bishop,' "Judge"
possibly in the belief that their fore-
fathers must have borne those
titles,
The truth is that these names can
be traced back to the actors who
appeared in the roles of kings, dukes
'or princes, and the rest in the Mir-
acle Plays of the Middle Ages.
Playing the same part in every play
the actors become known to their
friends not by their real Christian
name, but by the name of their
stage character,
' In the U.S., it appears that there
Is no legal objection to parents
christening their children with the
most outrageous names they can
think of. There was a court case
over the christening of twin daugh-
tors Kate and Duplicate, The cler-
gyman refused to perforin the cere-
mony, so the mother sued him, An-
other case occurred soon afterward
when a parent wanted her twin
sons christened Peter and Repeater.
Sensitive Stars
Film stars are notoriously sensi-
tive about their own names, The
ones with which they were christ-
ened often are considered not to be
"box office" so they change them.
Here arc some examples, real
names first: Frederick Austerlitz,
Fred Astaire; Claudette Cltaucl►oiu,
Claudette Colbert; Mary Magda-
lene von Losch, Marlene Dittrich;
Pauline Levy, Paulette Goddard;
Archibald Alexander Leach, Cary
Grant; Charles Edward Pratt,
Boris Karloff; Frederic McIntyre
Bickel, Frederic Marclr,

Strange Carving Discovered In the jungles Of Southern Mex.
'ico lies a huge, 15 -ton stone head, believed carved at the begin•
ning of the Christian era by an ancient people. This reproduc-
tiont now on display at the American Museum of Natttral
History was trade by Dr. Gordon- F. Ekholtn, right, after the
mammoth carving was discovered by Dr. Matthew Stirling,

and 20 feet in circumference.
