"~ bw pr : E z a , He Can Still Cook 3 : { 2% Sab Tests 80 iach 3 Show Rats Are Intelligent AN © 'Adult Rats Exceed Children of Five Years in Reason- "ing Ability yr "J ANN-ARBOR; MICH., -- Adult rats exceed fn reasoning ability children © up to 5 or 6 years old, it is shown by tests made at the University of Mich. . igan by Dr, N. R. F. Majer, of the psy- chology department. . The primary object of the experi: ments was to determine when child- ren first begin to show ability to rea- gon, that is, to work out problems by bringing together, mentally, separate items out of their experience. This combining of isolated experiences 1s the main difference between reason- jng and simple learning, Dr. Maler points out. : : In children, mental activity which may be described fairly as reasoning seldom appears before the age of five and a half or six years, A child has learned much before then but he is seldom -able to use his knowledge in "new ways to solve a problem, Reasoning in rats is tested by "their 'ability to put together parts of a path- .way which -have been learned separ- "ately, Adult rats will make a score of - 80 per cent and young rats a score of ~61.4 per.cent, Dr, Majer found. . With 39 children ranging in age from 31% to 8 years, Dr. Maier used a problem situation similar to that used for the rats. Pennies or desired toys were used as stimuli, and the "children greatly enjoyed trying to "find the correct path, Dr. Maier re- ports. i Despite their enthusiasm the chil- dren as a.avhole only made 58 per cent correct sdores. © Not until the"average age of - 70 months was reached did the correct responses|reach 68 per cent. It is pro-| bably between 5 and 6 that the nor: mal child begins to "use his head," T= and this period may be regarded as one of a great change in the quality of behaviour; Dr. Maier concludes. + May Have Finger In Political Pie But , Former Chef, Now Member of ~ Parliament; Gives Pet Rec- ipe for "Shrimps Creole" OTTAWA -- He may be a member of Parliament but he has not forgot- ten how to cook, John Charles Lander- you, Social "Credit member for Cal- gary east and former chef contends. .----*I may be busy cooking up other v matters besides food and sticking my fingers in a new variety of pies but I still'vemember how to make a chick- en pot pie," he said in an interview recently. i Mr. Landeryou was born in Toronto, went to New Orleans when he was 18 and got a job as a waiter. The behind scenes interested him more than the front however, and soon he was wear- . ing a 'chel's cap. His favorite' dish is the southern shore dinner, all served on one large platter with tartare sauce. It includes half a broiled lobster, fried scallops, frogs; legs nieuniere (sauted in but. ter with lemon), soft shelled crab and shrimps creole, : - He thinks Canadians do not eat enough fish as it is not cheap enough, and the reason it is not cheap enough is that not enough is eaten. For' his favorite dish of shrimps creplé he gives this recipe for which caimed shrimps may be used instead - of the more. delicate but less rdadily obtainable fresly variety: Sautg in"but- ter one-third large green peppétfine- ly "shredded and one-third medium "sized onion finely shredded, add one- third of large can of tomatoes with Juice, one bay-leaf, half a teaspoon of gligar, pepper 'and salt and a dash of vinegar. Then add one can' of shrimps and cook together till the julce boils down. Remove bay leaf and serve.

This medically new idea which ex- plains many of the familiar experi- ences of catching colds in subways apparently "sanitary," was put for- ward by Edward C. Sewall, M.D., of San Francisco, before the American Medical Association here. - Chronic infection of the sinuses, he said, is the reservoir from which epidenmics of common colds arises. He explained that repeated colds gradually cause the sinus mem- branes to thicken. If this thickened membrane becomes diseased the com- mon cold infection there tends to become chronic. "False Colds" Favor Theory As an evidence Dr, Sewall cited the sort of sinus disease often called "false colds." These, he said, are really acute flare-ups of the sinus condition. The persons who have them are real cold "carriers:"-: The false colds appear more often in these peo- ple in bad weather. This corresponds to the well-known increase in colds in the general population. The false cold in contrast to the true common cold usually clears up quickly. As onexproof that. these human "carriers," are the "general source of colds, Dr. Sewall analyzed the well known stories about Eski- MIRACLE YEAST Does Not Require Refrigeration Will Do Your Baking in 5 Hours [rrnmace rs 7 Price to.

Colds are brought to them, he pointed out, by crews of visiting ships. But some visiting ships have carried not one single case of known common cold among the crew, yet epidenmics have broken out among the Eskimos.

The colds become more virulent as the virus spreads among fresh material. > An example of this was a group of "explorers who gave colds to Es- kimos, The explorers were immune to their own colds, but after the Eskimos had the colds for a while they became so virulent that the ex- plorers caught them from the -Eski- mos. : = When Psychologists Disagree, What Can Ordinary Folk Think CHICAGO---Dr, John J. B. Morgan, Northwestern University © psycho- logist;-commenting on a- prediction that the Dionne quintuplets stood "a good chance of growing into heart breakers and old maids," declared recently there was no scientific basis for such a statement. "The quints are too young to be affected one way or another," he said, "Their future attitudes toward the opposite sex will-be miolded-by-a gfeat many factors during their childhood and adolesence." The heart breaker prediction was made by Dr. Donald A. Laird, of Colgate University, who said the quints" segregation from little boys while very young might make them "man haters."

"The box itself should be of the same color as the building, or as ils trim and the flowers should be of a contrasting color which is harmon- jous. I'or a red brick house, white flowers and plenty of green foliage would be attractive. I'or a nouse in which yellow is the prevailing tone, blue flowers should be used. These are only suggestions, since the taste of the owner will control, of course. The flowers must grow well, if the box is to give pleasure; and rich soil is. most important, because there is so little of it. The soil should be what florists call good potting soil -- a sandy loam well enviched, Holes drilled into the bottom of the box and covered with. broken pieces of pottery will serve for drainage. The best window-box flowers are those which bear flowers freely and continuously.

Gray- son, national chairman, as "a nation- al emergency proportions." As the annual National Red Cross convention opened, organizers an- nounced that rapid expansion of vol- unteer personnel to give emergency first ald in motor accident fcases was deemed a major project. Admiral Grayson pointed tof more than 36,000 killed and 105,000 maimed in the United States, in 1935 as the motivat- ing force. Already the Red Cross, since launch: ing the service six months ago, has placed 1,000 emergency stations, man- ned by volunteers, in operation along dangerous sections of roads and has designated a total of 3,000 stations for establishment in 30 states: "Eventually there will be 15,000 sta- tions with first ald workers ready to give aid in those precious moments-- between the time of the injury and admission to a hospital," Admiral Grayson said, So important was the problem con- sidered that one whole day of conven- tion session was det aside for discus: sion of "emergency first aid on the highway," under the direction of Ma- jor Harry IY.

While a wedding procession was marching through the streets of Beshenevo, Jugoslavia, the bridegroom--who was the Mayor of the township, Dusko Chirvitch -- in a frenzy of happiness seized a barking dog which was accompanying the party and bit its tail off. The dog's howls were drowned by the music of the wedding band, but the Mayor's act did not go unnotiec- ed by his critics on the local coun- cil. The latter declare that local opinion is so shocked over what is considered the undignified act of the Mayor, that it is likely he may be deposed, The Mayor himself pleads that high spirits at the prospect of hiss marriage, and the number of toasts his friends had made him drink, were Yesponsible for his bits ing the dog.-- South Slav Ierald hi a Every boy and baseball fan will want this up-to-date book, *Baseball--and How to Play it". by Frank J.
