They serve Kellogg's for breakfast, lunch, children's suppers, snacks at any time of day! Have You Heard? "There's only one thing wrong with this canoe," said the soldier to the sweet young thing on the "And what's that?" she asked. "Well," he replied, "if I try to kiss you in this it might capsize." The girl sat silent for a few minutes. Then she remarked, "I A dog is loved By old and young; He wags his tail, And not his tongue. Daughter (sighing): "John does t love Mother: "How do you know?"

THERE IS ONLY ONE KltLS INSECT PESTS Japanese City 'Blown To Atoms' It Is Predicted That World's Most Destructive Missile Will Shorten The War The atomic bomb, which the United States has unleashed against the Japanese, marks the end of an era, an age, a civilization, says Neal Stanford in The Christian Science Monitor. For destruction and devastation it surpasses two-thousandfold anything yet developed; it is but the beginning. The breaking up of the atom is not new. But harnessing the the very basic power of the That this force from which the sun draws its very power has been harnessed for destructive purposes is the consequence of this tragic world-engulfing conflict. That it can, and will, be usable for constructive, productive postwar uses goes almost without saying. But it is suoly-a hovel, incredible, fantastic discovery, its production so elaborate, technical, and scientific, that little is yet known of how that will be done. It is commerc ally impossible to harness the atom now or even in the near future, so that power can be produced to compete with coal Use of Atomic Power But the atomic bomb, despite its avalanchal " destructibility, has pointed the way to the contrasting constructive use of atomic power. It is a fantastically expensive procedure. Already the United States has sunk $2,000,000,000 in this experu dropping its first bombs. It requires vast areas for production--the equivalent of many small countries. The United States has two large tracts devoted to producing this power--as well as innumerable smaller ones. One .0,000-a i the State of Washington. Another is a 50.000 acre reserve in Tennessee. This work also requires research and know-how. These, fortunately, the United States, in co-operation with the British, hare to a large degree. The British pooled their men and knowledge with America in their race against time and /the Nazis.

She was banished from German y shortly afterward, but Hilter pu all avail- able physicists at work on atomic bombs and atomic pow er at the Kaiser Wiihelm Institu e, Berlin. What the natural scientists found was that a rare form of uranium, known as 2 35, when bombarded with low electrical energy (in the form o f neutron rays) would react by splitting some of its atoms almos t squarely Up to that time no atom had ever been reallv smashe d. A few electrons or other particles had been forced out by the smashing rays used, which r night be X-rays or rays made of atomic particles. GEN, CRERAR HONOURED BY DUTCH Details Withheld. An atomic bomb equaling in size and weight about a pea equals in explosive power a 5-pound box filled with TNT. If an atomic bomb weighs il pounds eit equals in effect a 10-ton If it weighs one ton, its explosive force will rock the target with the impact of 20,000 tons. Imagine 2,000 freight cars, each laden with 10 tons of superdyna-mite, crashing down on a Japanese city. How much of that city And it ii well to keep in thought that the 20,000-ton impact can be produced by dropping a single one- For tbe time being, the mili-of the atomic bombs. Power of Bomb A faint idea of the power within the atomic bomb can be grasped from the fact that the explosion of a munitions ship in Halifax, Nova Scotia, on June 6, 1917, killed 1,500 persons, injured 4,000, and made 20,000 homeless. Two and one half square miles of Halifax were devastated. That munitions ship carried 3,000 tons of TNT--about one GeneraLjI. D. G. Crerar, Commander of the victorious First Canadian Army, wearing the Grand Cross of the Order of Orange Nassau with Swords following its presentation by Prince Bernhardt on behalf of Queen Wilhelmina. Gen. Crerar received this highest order of the Netherlands on July 80, at Spelderholt. It is impossible yet to sketch, even in the broadest lines, the changes in warfare--aerial and land and naval warfare -- be brought about by the atomic bomb. Air warfare, particularly, will have to be conceived in entirely new terms. There no longer is need for heavy and relatively slow bombers. Neither will there be need fcr escort fighters. Atomic bombs will be carried to their target by jet-propelled planes traveling at between 500 and 800 miles on hour. Antiaircraft defenses, as they were known until yesterday, will be of no use what- No fortification will be able to withstand the atomic bomb. No city will outlast the first raid. Fliers Drop Gifts To Native Rescuers Natives in a New Guinea village saved the lives of two crashed fliers of the R.A.F. They fed them and guided them to two weeks past Japanese positions. Soon after the airmen got back a plane flew over the village and dropped parcels containing brightly colored calico trousers, shorts, razor blades (greatly prized because they can be made into so many things), barbers' scissors, knives, jackets, fishing lines for stringing bows, medical supplies. And a toy dog for Lazarus, the small son of the village mission catechist. WHAT SCIENCE IS DOING Moth-Killer United Kingdom scientists have found a simple means of making clothes permanently mothproof. The agent is D.D.T. -- the antimalarial, anti-typhus powder developed in Britain during the war, which has already saved thousands of Allied lives. In its new role of moth-killer it is dissolved in oil and applied to the wool during manufacture, thus becoming a permanent part of the wool's structure. of the weight of the wool treated --is sufficient to make the cloth moth-proof however many times it is washed or cleaned. D.D.T. can also be uted for temporary mothproofing of clothing already in use--i.e., by mixing with the solvents used in dry-cleaning. Cothingr cleaned regularly in this way would be nearly 100 per cent mothproof. This new application of D.D.T. was developed by research workers of the United Kingdom Wool Industries Research Associ- The World's Greatest Source of Information would like to ( You Will Enjoy Staying At The ST.
