Bm British Youth Explore Beauty Spots of Country Birmingham, -- A web of Youth Hostels for hikers and "bikers" is being woven round Birmingham bringing some of the most beautiful parts of Great Britain to the door- steps of the city's young industrial population. » The first step in 1930 was to throw a chain of hostels out across pic- turesque Shropshire, over the Welsh border and thence to the seaside re- sorts round Llandudno. : fThe hostels are situated about 16 miles apart and the route wanders through unspoilt villages, past iso ©. lated cottages, over wild. upland Some 'of the hostels re charming oe 'their weight in gold."--(Mrs.) JA ' 3 "| England's smallest county, has had no Salts enough, for they are For generations, wealthy over-weight people have been visiting those Euro- pean Spas whose waters are recog: nized for their reducing effect. It is called "taking the cure." Now the formila of Kruschen represents the ingredient salts of the mineral waters from those far-famed Spas. . These Salts combat the causc of fat by assist- ing the internal organs to perform their functions properly--to throw oft day those waste products and poisons which, if allowed to accumu- late, will be converted by the body's chemistry into fatty tissue. 3 ere print Shorts Golfballs were first made with horse- hide cases stuffed with feathers.

Gt. Britain's food supply is getting safer. Out of some 136,000 samples {ested last year by analysts, only 4.6 per cent. were shown to be below standard or adylterated. So great is the increase of the num- ber of bison'in the official game sanct- uary in Canada, that 1,200 of these animals were recently slaughtered and their flesh sold for food.

Physicians will testify to the fact that thousands of their patients, by indulging an insatiable appetite, have eaten themselves into an untimely grave. Perhaps it was this thought that concerned the old colored woman in the story. This colored mammy viewed with misgivings the great amount of sugar cane being eaten by her six-year-old grandson. Eventually she warned the boy: "Chile, ain't Ah done dol' yo' time an' agin dat youse eatin' too much cane?

This tunnel is not entirely for aviation ex- perimentation, but to gain important improvements in the range and ac- 'curacy of shell and rifle fire. When the blast of compressed air is turned on it will exert for twenty minutes a pressure of 5,000 tons on the giant castings at both ends. The highest velocity recorded of a project- ile is under 700 miles an hour, so the new tunnel will render it possible for the first time for wind resistance to be measured at speeds closely approxi- mating to the highest muzzle veloci- ties obtainable, ' As a result, research workers will be able to obtain exact data on the relative merits of projectiles con- structed with various modifications to ev.sting standard shapes. ; Instead of elaborate and costly gun- fire trials with projectiles, th~ whole work will be performed in the labora- tory. The air will rush past the shell instead of the shell rushing through the air. The chief directions in which im- provement may be expected are in in- creased range in the case of shellfire and greater resistance to "drift," due to a sideways wind, in the case of rifle fire, In the latter 'case, it will be pos- sible to reproduce the « 'fect of a Jat- eral wind of any desired strength by placing the bullet to be tested at a small angle to the 700-miles-an-hour "gale," ms ------ It is hope alone which purifies; to be without hope is to be without God in the world.--F, D, Maurice, mites The world is all gates, all opportuni- ties, strings of tension waiting to be struck.--Emerson. 110 Blood Transfusions | Make anipments.

Nineteen years ago Mayor Will H. Joyner was elected to office for the usual term of two years. When his term was nearing an end people began to talk about the approaching election, but Mayor Joyner argued them out of that. "Why have an election?" he asked. "Aren't things going on all right? Why not let the present administra. tion continue in power? As long as things are going along all right there is no need for all the expense of an election every two years. It looks to me like a deliberate waste of money. This sounded sensible to the citizens and Mr. Joyner and the four Aldermen continued to serve, In time some of the Aldermen died, moved away or re- signed, and Mayor Joyner appointed others to take their places. The Mayor's job carries no salary. r--r------ To conquer with arms is to make only a temporary conquest; to conquer the world by earning its esteem is a permanent conquest. -- Woodrow Wil- son.
