This is the zooplankton, rated as having a nutritive value equal to the best nieat, and a total food value equal to the best rye flour. Dr. George Clarke, of the Woods Hole Oceanographic fnstitute, states that dried, zooplankton has seven per cent, fat, fifty-nine per cent, protein, twenty per cent. carbohydrates, and fourteen per cent. chitin and ash. Sharks and whales live on zooplankton, and for weeks on the same diet. But the Nazis' hopes have been shat- tered, for to catch sufficient zoo- plankton to feed a grown man one would have to drain as much water as fills 4 football field ene yard decp.

"It is difficult to find any utili- tarian purpose in a large majority .of women's hats. They most cer- taily do not protect the wearer against rain or snow or cold." "Women's hats are a constant source of humor to the men of the nation," "The rapid mortality of designs due to their reproduction in great volume and consequent loss of distinctiveness, causes women's hats to b®ome: obsolete long be- ° fore they have worn out."
