The courtesy of thanking for slight favors. It is almost im- possible to be too liberal with this expression. Thank your father, your mother, your broth- ers and sisters. Thank the wait- ress who serves you, the sales- woman who displays her wares, the elevator boy, the stranger for any information, the doctor, the lawyer. 2. Yes, if the small in- dividual shakers are used they must match each other. 3. No. 4.

It is, of course, used also for formal visits. 5. Hold the fruit in your hand and peel it with the knife, or if it is juicy fruit, such as a peach, you may hold it on the fork. 6. Yes. What Science Is Doing. WEATHER `SIGNS' Quite a good many of the old- fashioned "signs" have good scien- tific warrant, even though others lack solid foundations, says Sci- ence Service. Back of the old jingle, "Red in the night, sailors' delight; red in the morning, sailors take .warn- ing," is the truth that bright sun- sets usually come during periods of settled weather, while a red- dened sun (at any time of day) indicates the presence of xnoisture- laden particles in the air, that may later precipitate rain or snow. Even at sunset, a bleary, reddened sun (as distinguished from red - tinted clouds) may warn of a storm to come. A. rising column of smoke from a 'chimney is another fairly re- liable "sign" of fair or clearing weather. It means that the air is dry, whereas smoke that goes up and then comes down again shows that the air is heavy with moisture which. the smoke par- ticles gather unto themselves until they are so heavy that they sink. A ring around the moon, or to be academically precise, a halo, is another fairly dependable wea- ther "sign." So is a fuzzy or blurry appearance of moon or stars. These appearances are due to the interception of light by thin clouds running ahead of an approaching general storm area. There is, however, no truth whatever in the belief that the crescent moon "holds" rain if its horns are pointed upward, "pours'' rain if they point downward. Those phenomena are purely as- tronomical, and have nothing to do with conditions on earth. The same holds true for the position of the "bowl" of the "Great Dip- per" as seen early in the evening. Convert Sea Water Into Drinking Water The most fascinating piece of equipment to be installed in three new trans-Atlantic flying boats being built for American Export Airlines is a still for converting sea water into drinking water, says Business Week. These stills are to be sta nditrd equipment in the planes' collapsible lifeboats. The still operates on solidified fuel in cans, each one of which will burn for two hours, time enough to distill a quart of water. The condenser is a flexible tube which is thrown overboard so that sea water cools the steam and thus converts it into drinking water. The fuel can be used for cooking, too, and the water container be- comes a pressure cooker. To be able to carry the ingenious de- vice, American Export Airlines had to take out a regular New York State distiller's licence. Evidently Got 'Ern! The New York Times says that pria,e advices received from con- tinental Europe recounted a quip that is going the rounds as a com- mentary on the German with- drawal in Russia. According to this "gag," Goer- ing gave Marshal Petain, French chief of state, 24 hours to hand over the plans of retreat used by Napoleon.

U.S. War Council Is Formed An eight -man combined ehiefe- of-staff board has been establish- ed in the United Nations war capi- tal at Washington to direct all British -American joint action by land, sea and air and on factory assembly lines. In its announcement of the move the war department said the new board "amounts to a com- bined command post for the con- duct of all joint operations of the two governments in the war." Besides directing military op- erations it will have jurisdiction over production and distribution of war supplies. It will work in collaboration with representatives of the other United Nations. On broad strategical questions it will make joint recommenda- tions to the heads of the Ameri- can and British governments. It is empowered to act without de- lay on inunediate matters relating to current operations. Formation of a new munitions assignment board was also an- nounced. Headed by Harry Hop- kins, it will decide where weapons will be most useful to carry out United Nations strategy. Other members are land, air and sea officers of the two governments. Tiny Six-year-old - Norwegian Patriot Today, as Norwegians believe they see the day of regained free- dom and independence drawing nearer, many of them, whose ata- . tus may have appeared at times to be doubtful, welcome—and, in fact, seek — arrest by the Ger- mans. Such arrest, it is believed, will bo rather certain evidence that one has been on the "right" side when the time for settling accounts arrives. But the little boy in Bergen was hardly moti- vated by any such thought. Chi].troll of the city had been ordered to attend a Hitler youth exhibition. Instead of going in they marched past the door sing- ing the national anthem and shoutieg "Long Live the King!" All were arrested except a tiny six-year-old who had been over- looked. The little chap darted up to a policeman and shouted: "Long Live the Ki.,g!"

SALE Olt RENT F "The Fifth Column And Hitler's Tricks" Fifth columnists are potentially more menacing than airplanes and tanks, said Robert Goffin, noted Belgian lawyer and writer, when addressing members of L'Alliance Francaise at the Chateau Laurier not long ago. Speaking on the topic, "The - Fifth Column and Hitler's Tricks," Mr. Goffin, who fled from Bel- gium just before its capitulation, told his audience of some of the dramatic events which led to the fall of his native country. He related how fifth columnists had established secret ramifications in his country and had been transmitting secret information to the enemy long before Germany decided to invade Belgium. The Germans were in possession of plans of the main fortification line and of every airport to such an extent that resistance to in- vasion could not hold out any length of time. HEY!
