Glad to Lom State Highway An Arkansas village which has seen better days is now rendering thanks artd looking forward in the hope lor better days aghin. And, curiously enough, its renewed hopes are based upon the fact that the straightening of a state highway has taken from the one street of the vill:igf» the highway it once prized so highly, and left the village several miles removed from the highway of which the village has been a modest ntark. * » There is a measure of relief and some rejoicing among the people of the village aforesaid, For the people ,found that instead~of increasing local trade and ertlarging'the village's, corn mercial strength and population, the paved road tended to reduce the trade formerly enjoyed and lend part of the population elsewhere. The wide open road was a wide open invitation to prospective purchasers to drive else where to .supply their needsl Now; the ipeopLe' greet with satisfaction ttiereturn of that isolatioh which was the >inirce of qsuch of their prosperity In the. days before the highway came.

Scientists explain that in the development of plant life through evolution these trees survived by adapting themselves to withstand the adverse growing apnditvons of their environment. Lea,ws are green because the predominant pigment in them is chlorophyll, the substance which enables plants to manufacture food from water and oxygen. Thfe foliage of ordinary deciduous trees Is not adapted to withstand low temperatures and in the fall the chlorophyll is converted into a colorless product. This exposes other pigments, particularly carotin and xanthophyll. and the result Is the beautifully col ored foliage, characteristic of that season." - The needles of the-pine trees corn spond In function to the leaves of deciduous trees, and the green element in them is protected from injury both by their tough exteriors and by the arrangement of the water molecules in the protoplasm of the cells.--Magazine Section of the Pliikidelpliia Sun day Record. spent the spent y. th< Pcrvoiial Mjss Helen Stev«ns spent thft weekend >t Joliet. - - r . .

But "penny" has been applied to the American cent since the beginuing of our coinage system, from the English penny which circulated so freely in this country up until after the Revolution. The word "cent" as an official name of a national coin first appeared In an act of congress passed August 8, 1786, which prescribed "Cents: The highest copper piece, of which 100 shalPbe equal to the dollar." The law renjoving the English penny from circulati^ in the United States was passed bySag^gress October 16, of the samo year, but the name "penny" was transferred to our cent In popular usage and has <?!ulig to It ever since. Bunco Party A party of friends were entertained py Mrs. Earl Gorman Monday evening- Five tables of bunco were played and prizes were won by Mrs. Wei# Keck, Mrs. Edgar Landgren, Mrs, Earl Gorman and Mrs. Howard Cairns. Delicious refreshments were served. Why Colors Fade . Colored merchandise is faded by the action of sunlight and skylight. The ultra-violet, violet and blue radiation produces most of the fnding. though some materials fade fr i exposure to yellow, orange 05 red 1 illation. The more intense the radi itlon. the greater the fading. The fading of textiles is usually considerably greater when they are exposed to light in a moist condition. For that reason, it is customary to dry colored goods that have been laundered, either indoors or In the Bhade and as rapidly as possible. F~ W Juat Eight Cli*» G.

Wky Rain Affect* L*««M Professor Humphreys of the weather bureau says that many plants undergo some changes on the approach of rain. The hanging of the leaves so as to show their under sides when viewed laterally or at a distance Is owlngi to changes in the leaf stalk on the absorption of moisture. Similarly all noticeable plant changes on which weath er predictions are based result from variations in humidity, temperature and sunshine. Plant signs, however, are not regarded as reliable guides to coming weather.
