Schneemann, were being 'groomed* by the German intelligence service for important roles in the last desperate attempts of the German high command to obtain vital information concerning Allied military and political intentions." Colepaugh and Gimpel, after an army trial, were sentenced to death, but President Truman commuted the sentence to life imprisonment. Wilms and Schneemann still are at large. An Active Nasi Zuehlsdorff, the announcement said, was born in Guestrow, Mekl, Germany, but had spent most of his life in Latin America, where he traveled extensively. He was reported by the FBI tp have worked for German firms in Latin America and to have been prominent in Nazi activities, which resulted in his expulsion from Colombia. He was interned in the United States in April, 1942. as an enemy alien and was repatriated to Germany on an exchange ship, in July, that year, the announcement added. Immediately rafter his repatriation, he went to work in Berlin as an English language propaganda broadcaster and singer, the FBI said. He attended the school for German espionage agents at The Hague during 1944, according to the bureau. In February, 1945, the announcement continued, he was flown from Berlin to Madrid, where he assumed his alias and -set out for Argentina. When Larry MacPhail, the baseball magnate, was a small boy, he lived in Cass City, Mich. One winter his mother had been suffering from a severe cold, and her friends and neighbors were quite worried about it. Larry was in the tide yard, harhmering some boards together, when one of the neighbors ?ent her little daughter to inquire "iow Larry's mother was. "Not very well," answered Larry shortly, concentrating on his carpentry. "Is that her coughin't" asked the little girl, with her ear turned toward the house. "Of course not, you idiot," answered Larry, without looking up from his hammering. "This is a rabbit hutch!" COMPLETE SUCCESS Thompson--Was your garden a success Liis year? \ Bidwell--Was it!

She herself was in line for the British succession as the great-granddaughter of Mary, Queen of Scots. When her death, in ni4, prevented fulfillment of the act of parliament by which she would have been offered the crown, her son, as George I, became the first of the Hannoverian dynasty to rule England. Besides the Hannoverian and British lines, Sophia was associated with the royal house of Prussia by the marriage of her daughter, Sophia Charlotte, to Frederick I, first king Prussia. Her granddaughter, Sophia Dorothea, married Frederick William I of Prussia, and became mother of Frederick the Great. In Great Britain, although the Hannover blood relationship remained, the male succession of the house was broken when Victoria came to the throne and married Albert, of the German state of Saxe- Coburg-and Got ha. During the First World war, George V relinquished all German titles. The name of the school in 1987 ruling house was then abandoned for that of Windsor.

It should offer some use for every member of the family and for the guests of the family--a sand box and swing for the youngsters, a lawn for sun-bathing and for family games and a fine tree or two for summer shade. There should be flower borders along the sides for mother and an area where father can grow tomatoes and small vegetables. A pergola or summer house serves many useful purposes, and there may be room for an outdoor fireplace for picnic suppers. Formerly the only use made of the back yard was for vegetable gardens, laundry drying and ash piles. The front yard was the only area that received any landscape attention, and it was generally decorated with either two round canna beds or two blue spruce. Family life was strictly an indoor affair as contrasted to 'today's mode of living* Poison Den The best and quickest method is to kill the woodchuck in its den with poison gas. This may be done by piping the exhaust from an automobile into the den by means of a hose. The hose should be carried well down into the. den and dirt should be packed around it before the engine is started. With the engine running fo£ 10 to 20 minutes, enough carbon monoxide gas will be produced to kill all inhabitants of the burrow. The opening to the burrow must be thoroughly closed. The most convenient and positive poison is woodchuck bombs, although calcium cyanide or carbon bisulphide may be used." Two or three tablespoons of calcium cya* nide placed well down the burrow will be sufficient if the entrance and all- openings are closed with dirt well tramped down. Three or four tablespoons of carbon bisulphide put on a pad of absorbent cotton, cloth, or waste, and pushed into the burrows with all entrances tightly closed, are effective. Calcium cyanite and carbon bisulphide are very poisonous and must be handled with care. Carbon bisulphide is highly explosive and should never be used while an operator is smoking or new an open flame. 4-H CLUB HAS FIRST • MEETING OF SEASON TUESDAY, APRIL 2 The first 4-H meeting of the season will be held at the home of the local leader, Mrs. Lester Bacon, on Tuesday evening", April 2, at 7 p.m. Either boys or girls over the age of 10 are eligible to join and are requested to bring their parents to this first meeting if possible.
