One authority quotes it as supposedly 100 fathoms. At any rate prolonged submergence at considerable depth makes demands on the body structure of the whale vhich brings1 about the efTective idaptation. The horizontal position of the tailflukes, the special construc »on of the larynx, epiglottis and pharynx, which enable the mouth to be used solely for feeding, the great expansivity of the lungs which depends on the loose attachment of the ribs, the extraordinary large amounts of blood in proportion to size which involves an increased capacity for carrying oxygen to the tissues, are all examples of this adaptation. The principal danger to which a diver is exposed is the liberation of gas bubbles into his blood due tu diminishing water pressure if the . ascent to the surface is too rapid. This is known colloquially as the "bends." In the whale the circulatory system is so arranged that the venous blood is held by a portion of the blood vessels without jed at the Armory at Wodostock, spent Washington tag atwfcp.

The earth is nearer to the sun during our n o r t h e r n w i n t e r t h a n d u r i n p o u r summer. The distance, therefore, has nothing to do with the seasons, observes a writer in the Cleveland Plain Dealer. The arth's axis is permanently tilted, with relation to the sun, and it always inclines in the same direction. The equator is inclined to the plane of the earth's orbit at an angle of 23^ degrees, and because of this inclination the cun is high in the sky in summer months and low in the winter. It is this tilt which causes the seasons, for not only does the high altitude in summer cause the days to be longer, but the sun's rays then fall more directly on the earth's surface, making it hotter, instead of being spent, as in the winter, ih an oblique course through the atmosphere. Why Brown Eggs Cost More The average individual asks: Why, if there is no difference in the nutritious value of brown-shelled eggs and white ones, do the brown one3 cost a few more cents a dozen? The answer is this: The brownshelled eggs weigh more per dozen than the white ones. In the old days before eggs were graded, it was a, known fact that the brown eggs would weigh many buaces more per dozen than the white. It was at this time, without a dwM, that the °?ri>ftWUs idea started that the brown-shelled egg was the best, f after a visit with her daii#htAr Ellert anjr»iw.«:unfc "-l"K tuauo, nave - " ^ -o ouctue ana me contrioution oi state goverftat South Bend Ind ' ' po,,tic*1 wpercussibns alarming to down owing to the confusion over the ments; propaganda from government Miss Eleanor Sutton who is emnlov- p*rti8an chif>ftain8 Everybody has tribunal and Its future rating, and private sources dealing with the been so absorbed in talking about pen- Thfe coal stabilization hill, which pass- courts and be prepared ta pay mot* ed the House last week may take the'.for commodities.

Each pugilist in the earlier days of fighting was g£0? vided with a second or backer who held a sponge with which he attended to the bruises of his protege between rounds. A second gave notice of his man's defeat and willingness to acknowledge it by throwing up the sponge.
